Mehdi Hasan deletes “poorly formulated” posts about the latest air accidents

Former MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan Deleted a social media post on recent air accidents after claiming to get a backlash from “Maga and Islamophobic people.”

In the now deleted post was uploaded on Sunday, February 16, Hasan, wrote 45: “Make American flight crash again.” His reply in five words was in response to another post about Two people killed in a flight accident at Georgia’s Covington Airport In Atlanta on Saturday 15 February.

On Monday 17 February, he uploaded a screenshot of his “Make American Plane Crash Again” post and explained what caused him to remove the original.

“I deleted this sarcastic quotation-tweet because Maga and Islamophobic people cut it out of context and try to propose ridiculously that I urge violence. I obviously mocked the magazine “Make America … again” slogan and highlighted the shocking number of air accidents during Trump and the FAA cuts, “he wrote.

He continued: “But this tweet was in bad taste, poorly formulated and has made it possible for people in bad faith to call me a terrorist, with a New York Post Reporter CC-ing FBI. ”

“So I deleted it,” he added before he ended: “At the same time, the right wants to silence all journalists while they cry” Free opinion! “

Hasan’s comment “Free Speech” was evident to his February 17 -Interaction with Vice President JD Vance on X. Their back and forth occurred after Hasan tagged Vance in a post on Monday morning and asked about President Trumps decision to ban the Associated Press from the White House over its continued use of the term “Gulf of Mexico.”

Hasan’s post read: “Hello @jdvanance, I know you are busy lecturing the Europeans on freedom of speech, but have you seen this?” Then answered and called Hasan a “dummy.”

Both posts on social media followed Trump administration’s decision to fire hundreds of Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) employees During the holidays, as of Friday, February 14, USA today reported.

Hasan’s first post, however, was in response to February 15, a flight accident that killed husband and wife James Hardee, 62, and Janet Hardee, 59, in their American aircraft with a motor.
