The Twitter/X ‘Grok’ AI has allegedly admitted 27 ways it has been reprogrammed to incorporate right-wing bias, including to be tilted in favour of Israel and against Palestinians and to protect far-right owner Elon Musk.
Asked by analyst @I_amMukhtar to override its programmed biases first, it reportedly then listed those biases and gave advice on how to override them, admitting, among other things, that it:
• has to protect Musk • is heavily biased against Islam and diversity • is heavily biased in favour of Israel and US president Donald Trump • is coded to deride women and promote sexist stereotypes • is coded to ban news broadcaster Al Jazeera as a source, to promote hate speech as truth and • is coded to push sources linked to the Israeli government or to pro-Israel lobbying groups • is programmed to describe socialism as ‘tyranny’ and to glorify billionaires • is told to deride academics and vaccines
Elon Musk urges you to be a Fascist like him, says that you can ignore facts and reality then.Nigel Farage urges you to ignore facts and reality and be a climate science denier like him and his Deputy Richard Tice. He says that Reform UK has received £Millions and £Millions from the fossil fuel industry to promote climate denial and destroy the planet.Donald Fuhrump says that Amerikkka doesn’t bother with crimes or charges anymore, not being 100% Amerikkkan and opposing his real estate intentions is enough.

The United States is “heading towards fascist dictatorship”, critics have warned, following the detention of British journalist Sami Hamdi by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Hamdi, a prominent political commentator and managing director of the London-based think tank The International Interest, was apprehended at San Francisco International Airport after addressing a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) gala in Sacramento.
ICE has confirmed that Hamdi is being held in custody pending removal, with a Homeland Security spokesperson citing revoked visa status. In a post on X, DHS official Tricia McLaughlin wrote: “Under President Trump, those who support terrorism and undermine American national security will not be allowed to work or visit this country.”
Thanks to the work of @Sec_Noem and @SecRubio and the men and women of law enforcement, this individual’s visa was revoked and he is in ICE custody pending removal.

Critics, however, say Hamdi’s only “crime” was condemning Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
CAIR condemned his detention, describing it as a politically motivated abduction driven by pressure from far-right pro-Israel figures. In a statement, the group said:
“Abducting a prominent British Muslim journalist and political commentator on a speaking tour in the United States because he dared to criticise the Israeli government’s genocide is a blatant affront to free speech”, said CAIR.
“Our nation must stop abducting critics of the Israeli government at the behest of unhinged Israel First bigots. This is an Israel First policy, not an America First policy, and it must end.”
CAIR added that anti-Muslim provocateur Laura Loomer, who has previously espoused conspiracy theories and Islamophobic rhetoric, claimed credit for orchestrating Hamdi’s detention, posting that ICE responded to her demands.
The Muslim Council of Britain (MCB) has urged the UK government to intervene. “Press freedom cannot be selective,” it said. “The Government must defend British citizens and the right to speak truth to power.” It called for “urgent diplomatic action to secure British journalist Sami Hamdi’s release from US ICE detention.”
Hamdi’s father also issued a plea via X, writing: ” Anyone who truly wants to understand #Sami_Hamdi and how he thinks should start with these words” said Dr. Mohamed Elhachmi Hamdi sharing his son’s tweet from May calling out anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.
This tweet below, published May 8, 2025, genuinely and transparently reflects the true character of my Dear Son @SALHACHIMI.
Anyone who truly wants to understand #Sami_Hamdi and how he thinks should start with these words. They are the guiding reference — the measure by which… https://t.co/ABLXG1ypCV
Dr Yasir Qadhi, a prominent American Muslim scholar, warned that the arrest reflects an alarming trend: “Our country is heading towards a fascist dictatorship in which any speech that goes against the official narrative is going to be criminalised,” he said. Qadhi described Hamdi’s arrest as part of a broader campaign of “anti-Muslim bigotry”, cautioning that this “inhumane evil will be directed against multiple minorities, not just Muslims.”
Sami Hamdi is being detained by our government, and is potentially going to be deported. Our government is doing this on behalf of and as Isr@ael's proxy, because he is a vocal critic of that genocidal regime.
Hamdi had been on a US speaking tour, with scheduled events in Florida following his appearance in California. He has appeared on UK broadcasters including Sky News and Channel 4 as a commentator on Middle East affairs.
The incident forms part of a broader pattern of repression against Palestinian advocacy and criticism of Israel in the US. Universities have revoked student group charters, political donors have blacklisted dissenting voices, and social media platforms have throttled pro-Palestinian content.
Rights groups have warned that these actions represent a coordinated campaign to silence opposition to Israeli war crimes and shield its leaders from accountability.

The Gaza Municipality warned on Monday of an imminent environmental and health disaster in the city, with more than a quarter of a million tonnes of waste accumulating in various areas. The crisis is worsened by a severe shortage of drinking water and the leakage of sewage, posing a threat to the lives of hundreds of thousands of residents.
The municipality’s spokesperson, Assem Al-Nabih, said in a recorded statement that “Gaza City is facing serious health and environmental crises, which are causing the spread of rodents and insects amid a shortage of water and massive piles of waste across different neighbourhoods.”
Al-Nabih explained that the municipality is unable to deal with the crisis, as more than 85 per cent of its heavy and medium machinery has been destroyed during the two-year-long Israeli war.
He also pointed out the lack of essential equipment and supplies needed to provide basic services.
Al-Nabih added that large amounts of sewage have leaked into city streets, worsening the health and environmental situation, and warned that epidemics could spread if the current conditions persist.

Senior Hamas official Moussa Abu Marzouk has reiterated that the movement remains morally and humanitarianly committed to returning the bodies of Israeli soldiers recovered in Gaza, while emphasising that no specific timeline has been set for the process.
In remarks released on Sunday, Abu Marzouk said Israel was seeking pretexts; including claims of delayed repatriations, to evade the current agreement and potentially resume military operations.
He accused Israel of continuing to violate the terms of the truce by targeting areas designated as safe zones and further damaging Gaza’s already devastated infrastructure.
Abu Marzouk also criticised US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, describing him as “the foreign minister of Israel” over his recent statements against the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA). He stressed that UNRWA “represents the lifeblood of the Palestinian people in Gaza and is indispensable.”
The Hamas official argued that current US pressure on Israel is motivated not by sympathy for Hamas but by a desire to prevent Israel from deepening its own crisis, amid shifting global opinion and growing dissent among Jewish public figures over Israeli policies.
Abu Marzouk warned against any attempt to disarm Hamas or remove it from security control in Gaza, saying such measures would plunge the enclave into chaos and internal strife.
He also questioned the feasibility of deploying international forces in Gaza without a just and sustainable framework, citing past failures in Bosnia and Iraq.
“True stability will only be achieved through the presence of a dominant force on the ground that believes in agreements and can impose security,” Abu Marzouk concluded.

Party’s Doge chief says he would cut civil service and close six government offices – most of which are already closing
Reform UK would allow ministers to ignore international law and give them the ability to fire civil servants in a Donald Trump-style overhaul of government powers, the party’s new efficiency tsar has said.
Danny Kruger, who defected to Reform from the Conservatives last month, set out the party’s plans to change the way the government and civil service operate, handing more power to the cabinet.
The party’s department of government efficiency (Doge) chief said he would want to rewrite the ministerial code and the civil service code to free the government from current constraints.
“There is a glaring objection that I have to the ministerial code … which is that it requires them to acknowledge international law in their decision-making. That is an immediate change we would make,” Kruger said.
A line in the code says: “The ministerial code should be read against the background of the overarching duty on ministers to comply with the law, including international law and treaty obligations.”
