Watching the special rapporteur on violence against women and girls, Reem Alsalem ( Jordan) dismissive smirk, as a survivor Ilana Gritzewsk described her ordeal under Hamas captivity,
is stomach turning.

She should be sacked

@UN

Before I leave Ireland, I want to place on record that in the last 24 hours I have received constant stalking and death threats for my reporting. However I will not be intimidated.

What I have uncovered is deeply troubling, and the effort to silence it only makes that clearer.

[Masih Alinejad @AlinejadMasih]

Hello @AOC, while you smiled in a hijab at a New York event, I was in Federal Court facing the 4th hitman hired by the Islamic Republic to assassinate me, for campaigning for Iranian women to have the same freedom you performed for a photo op. Will you come to court with me in August when I face the 5th hitman? Or does solidarity only work when it doesn't offend the Islamic regime?

You wore hijab voluntarily in New York. Women are killed in Iran for taking it off.

You are the very woman who, at every opportunity, protests against violence against women, decries gender segregation, and champions "inclusion." Yet here you stand, smiling and wearing a hijab, at an event in New York, in the heart of the West, where men and women are strictly separated. To me and millions of Iranian women, this does not look like a choice. It is no longer "My body, my choice," but rather "My body for votes."

They who claim to fight for women's self-determination in the name of feminism voluntarily embrace an ideology that mandates our women cover their hair simply because they are women. They enjoy the prosperity, freedom, and privileges of the Western world, where they may live as autonomous individuals , yet they simultaneously accept that other women should not be afforded the same rights.

Your russian friends struck the UN vehicle

[Michael Weiss @michaeldweiss]

Good. That’ll piss off all the right people.

[Caolan @CaolanReports]

Today the Venice Biennale opens and Russia has spent millions parading their “culture” at a shiny pavilion.

In reality, they bombed over 2,600 hospitals, maternity wards, and schools since 2022.

That’s Russian culture.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

The visibility of all pro‑Ukrainian accounts, including mine, has dropped dramatically. Please help me fight the algorithm by visiting my profile and boosting posts about today’s Russian war crimes.

Pic for attention.

[Republicans against Trump @RpsAgainstTrump]

King Charles reminds Trump and MAGA that NATO invoked Article 5 for the first time after 9/11, when all alliance members came to the aid of the United States.

“Today, Mr. Speaker, that same unyielding resolve is needed for the defense of Ukraine and her most courageous people,” the king said, receiving a standing ovation🇺🇸🇬🇧🇺🇦

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

Russia is mass murdering Ukrainian civilians every day. Putin is a wanted war criminal whose terrorist nation systematically kidnaps children by the thousands, tortures and rapes in occupied lands, and is now trying to hide mass graves. If Putin comes, America has fallen.

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

I am deeply saddened by the recent escalation of attacks against Ukraine, which continue to afflict civilians. I express my solidarity with those who are suffering and assure all the Ukrainian people of my prayers. I renew my appeal for weapons to fall silent and for the path of dialogue to be pursued.

This is Bita Hemmati

She is from Iran

She protested her government in January

And for that she has been sentenced to DEATH

Where are the women's rights groups?
Where are the human rights activists?

Silent

So WE cannot be

Be her voice and FREE IRAN 🇮🇷🇮🇷🇮🇷

[Acyn @Acyn]

Kellyanne: Trump got elected on—

Jessica: And what do people think of him now? He has a 35% approval rating in most polls.

Gutfeld: He’s not a politician.

Jessica: Yes, he is. Stop saying he’s just the host of The Apprentice who came to save us. He’s been in office twice.

Gutfeld: You can't understand Trump because his political decisions align with his personal and patriotic ones.

Jessica: Personal? Like his own bank account?

Breaking: Iran’s Regime Moves to Execute a Female Protester

Bita Hemmati, a young Iranian woman, is reportedly at imminent risk of execution by hanging alongside her husband.

She was arrested after taking part in the nationwide anti-regime protests in January, part of a wave of demonstrations demanding freedom and basic rights.

According to reports, Bita Hemmati is being held in Evin Prison in Tehran, a place long associated with political prisoners, torture, and forced confessions. Like many others, she has been denied due process and access to a fair trial.

Her “crime” is demanding FREEDOM.
In just one week, at least 11 men have already been executed.
Now, the regime is turning its machinery of death toward women.

Hundreds of women are currently imprisoned. Many are under torture. Many are facing long sentences. And now, execution.

Where are the voices that claim to defend women?

Where are Western feminists leaders?
Why are you silent. A massacre happened in Iran and many of you were silent and now your voice can save a life.

Say her name:
Bita Hemmati.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

I’m not sure it has broken through to the general public that the president is a megalomaniac crazy person. Hopefully posts like this help.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

I bet I can think of one exclusion or exemption...

[Magyar Péter (Ne féljetek) @magyarpeterMP]

While massive crowds are gathering at our campaign events, the regime, gripped by fear, has shifted into panic mode.
They have fired up the shredders, and the disintegration of the power structure has begun.
In exactly four days, the decisive parliamentary election will conclude.
Now is the time to push forward, now is the time to mobilize all our energy.
Under a TISZA government, order, peace, and security will return to Hungary. And, of course, there will be more smiles and more joy.
Long live a free, independent, European, and humane Hungary.❤️🤍💚

[Rep. Melanie Stansbury @Rep_Stansbury]

Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY!

The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.

This is all hands on deck—Democrats, Republicans, Independents—AMERICANS must look at using any and every tool to stop the President and his unauthorized war including the 25th Amendment, Impeachment, and War Powers Resolutions. The world is watching, and history will remember.

[Rep. Eric Swalwell @RepSwalwell]

The President must be removed.

If Congress is too cowardly to do it, his own Cabinet must.

Orban's campaign doesn't go as planned. Wherever he shows up the local patriots waiting for him.
The latest from Szombathely.
