Sam Husseini was dragged out by armed guards after trying to ask a question about Gaza. Independent journalist Sam Husseini was dragged away from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s final press briefing after trying to ask a question about the Gaza ceasefire. Blinken claimed that the past four years have seen successful diplomacy, including the truce, even though both Israel and Hamas gave President-elect Donald Trump the credit for the deal. In a video posted by Ryan Grim of DropSite News, several uniformed Diplomatic Security Service (DSS) officers can be seen approaching Husseini, who is seated in the briefing room. “Get your hands off me!” Husseini cried out as the guards seized him. “Answer my damn question.” “You pontificate about a free press!” he called out. “I am asking questions after being told by [State Department spokesman] Matt Miller that he will not answer my questions.” Every other journalist in the room watched and did nothing.
