"The apology came early Friday morning, hours after an interview with CNN at Columbia where James repeatedly declined to apologize for the video, saying that the focus should be on Palestinian liberation." cnn.com/2024/04/26/inv…
HOLY CRAP. So @CNN had done an interview with Khymani James Thursday night where he "repeatedly declined to apologize for the video" where he said "Zionists don’t deserve to live"... and CNN didn't report it! cnn.com/business/live-…

The same @washingtonpost article that quotes Hamas-provided casualty numbers without labeling them as such says Israel has not provided "**significant** evidence" that Hamas used a hospital as a base of operations. washingtonpost.com/world/2023/11/…
Also in the article: "The list of injuries the U.N. team witnessed was an indicator of the brutality of an Israeli military campaign..."

Here's the rejected email. I did not get a similar reply for an email to the Jurgens address.
Jurgens is not listed on the @splcenter website, however:
After YEARS of publishing on its website that at 5-6 weeks of a pregnancy, "A very basic beating heart and circulatory system develop," Planned Parenthood has decided... it really doesn't. Now: "It sounds like a heartbeat on an ultrasound, but it's not a fully-formed heart..." 1/
The change happened sometime in the past two months (after the Supreme Court's Roe decision.) As of 7/25/22, an archive of the website shows the original wording. The rest of the page remains unchanged and there's no note to indicate the update was made. 2/
The same page still notes that at 7-8 week, "The heart has formed." 3/
In March, I wrote about the Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program for @thedispatch, How the Pandemic Has Overwhelmed a Federal Injury Compensation Program. Six months later, the pace of claims resolution is still at a crawl despite new personnel. 1/ thedispatch.com/p/how-the-pand…
2/ As of March 1, out of 7,056 COVID-related claims, resolved claims stood at seven. As of Sept 1, out of 9,888 COVID-related claims, 45 have been resolved. 42 claims were rejected, three have been deemed eligible for compensation, but eligible expenses are still under review. 2/
The 3 eligible COVID-19 vaccine claims are the result of
anaphylaxis (1) and myocarditis (2). The anaphylaxis claim has been under review for eligible expenses for almost a year. 3/
