Today, @NYCMayor and I discussed a shared challenge: building an economy for the many.
Spain is showing that another economic model is possible. More jobs. Better wages. Less inequality.
Social justice is not the enemy of economic growth.
My mother, Aleema Khan @Aleema_KhanPK and my aunts, Dr Uzma Khan @DrUzma_KhanPK and Noreen Niazi @Noreen_KhanPK , remain behind bars.
Their only crime is refusing to abandon their brother, Imran Khan @ImranKhanPTI throughout his imprisonment — a detention the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention found to be arbitrary and in violation of international law, and called for his immediate release.
For three years, they have stood outside prisons and courtrooms, enduring everything from scorching heat exceeding 45°C to near-freezing conditions, demanding justice and the rule of law.
They have endured tear gas, chemical-laced water cannons, repeated arrests and relentless intimidation. Yet no amount of pressure could silence them or force them to step aside. They stood their ground. They refused to abandon their brother.
Since their latest imprisonment, they have been denied access to their family and legal counsel. They spent three years demanding justice for their brother. Now, like him, they find themselves denied the very rights they are fighting for.
Standing by their brother is not a crime.
Raising their voice for him is not a crime.
Demanding justice and the rule of law is not a crime.
Their detention must end.

Prime Minister Netanyahu's lies about @NYCMayor don't change the fact that Netanyahu is a wanted war criminal who has blocked justice for Americans killed on his watch.
If there's anyone who should be shamed & ashamed, it's him.
He's lucky he was even allowed into our country.
DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history.
This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.
Members of former prime minister Imran Khan's family, including his three sisters, as well as activists from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have been arbitrarily detained.
The targeting of his family and PTI party activists is a flagrant violation of their rights to liberty, freedom of expression, association and peaceful assembly. Such actions speak to the severity of the current restrictions in Pakistan.
Amnesty International calls on the Pakistani authorities to immediately release Imran Khan’s relatives and PTI workers, who have been targeted simply for their familial ties, political affiliation and plans to protest.
There is little choice left for the people of Pakistan.
Either remain silent while their chosen leader is imprisoned. Whilst his family is detained, his party is suppressed and justice is denied - or come out peacefully and exercise their fundamental right to protest.
You can arrest families and threaten people with violence. But you cannot imprison 250 million Pakistanis or crush the will of a generation.
No regime is more powerful than its people. The world must watch as the people of Pakistan come together to demonstrate their plea for justice, even in the face of threats of violence.
Inshallah, Pakistan’s future will be decided by its people, not by criminals who rule through fear.
🚨🇵🇰 Videos just dropped of police raiding the homes of Tehreek-e-Insaf leaders (Khan party) in Sialkot.
What is this madness?
WTF is happening in Pakistan and why is nobody saying anything?

Disgusting.
A peaceful protest is set to take place on the 27th. Yet the military plan to use it to make an example of anyone questioning their rule. They are planning a bloodbath.
I commend the brave souls who stand up for their country against this tyrannical regime.
Inshallah the rest of the world will speak up soon. I just pray it doesn’t take an atrocity to make them see how bad things are.
A very scary time to be a Pakistani.
🚨26 نومبر کو ہمارے شہدا کے جنازوں میں کس نے شرکت کی ؟ اعجاز ستی کی لاش تب دی گئی جب یقین دہانی لے لی کہ جنازہ کینٹ میں نہیں ہو گا 26 نومبر کو ہمارے شہدا کی لاشیں انہوں نے نہیں دیں دوسری طرف دہشتگرد ہمارے فوجی جوانوں کی لاشیں نہیں دیتے دونوں لاشیں نہیں دیتے ان میں پھر فرق کیا ہے ؟

Prime Minister of Pakistan @CMShehbaz going to @UN for representing Pakistan. A journalist freind from New York asked me that why your government arrested three sisters of @ImranKhanPTI under a black law 3 MPO just days before the speech of Prime Minister in UN? How can he represent the Islamic Republic of Pakistan where government arresting elderly women without any criminal cases?
Imran Khan's sisters arrested and detained and security forces seizing ministers in broad daylight.
The arrests come a week before a planned protest march by Khan’s PTI party.
Pakistan's Interior Minister said the government would do everything it could to stop the march.
