Today, the #Belarus regime is conducting a new fake trial against my husband Siarhei. My kids haven't seen him for 4 years & for more than a year, I don't even know if he is alive. I hoped to see him today, but the cowardly regime has decided to conduct this farce in his absence.

1/ Two years ago today, on 4/25/22, Twitter’s Board accepted Elon Musk’s offer to acquire the company at $54.20/share. As an ex-director for civic integrity at Twitter, I’ve watched what Musk has done since then. And today is my last post on this platform. I’m leaving. 🧵>>>
.@KatiePhang, @joshgerstein and @mjs_DC discuss what they heard in the Supreme Court oral arguments in the Trump immunity claim. "I did not expect this kind of minimization of January 6th that we saw from the justices."
@AshaRangappa_ It's just disgusting & with judges on the court who are themselves taking bribes from billionaires getting to decide this presidential immunity case to help Trump delay his trial until after the election. x.com/acyn/status/17…

The 4 female Supreme Court Justices were the ONLY ones standing up for dying women and girls in need of abortion care The 4 female Justices were also the ONLY ones who thought Trump shouldn’t get away with the J6 terror attack Don’t EVER minimze the importance of women in power
Today, Chairman @RepJoeWilson and Ranking Member @RepCohen released a statement calling on Georgian leadership to abandon the Russian-style "foreign agent" bill. Georgia must divert from this destructive path and return to its previous liberal democratic trajectory.
The Chornobyl tragedy is now 38 years old. Millions of people became victims of it. Radiation sees no borders, so it is in everyone's interest to prevent a new catastrophe. And now 🇺🇦 is doing everything to maintain nuclear safety on the continent despite Russian attacks.
Radiation sees no borders or national flags. The Chornobyl disaster demonstrated how rapidly deadly threats can emerge. Tens of thousands of people mitigated the Chornobyl disaster at the cost of their own health and lives, eliminating its terrible consequences in 1986 and the…
