🧵I followed Hassan Akkad's account for the last 1.5 year and his “Give us the money you owe” campaign every day since its start in April. Even though there are suspicion that Akkad’s campaign on Hamsho played a role in his arrest, which seems to be denied by Mousa Al Omar (1/25)

Yesterday, I was out with friends watching the World Cup at a café in the Malki neighbourhood when several men arrived. One of them, wearing a mask & a hat, spoke to a waiter, who then came to our table & told my friend, Hassan Akkad, that someone wanted to speak with him.

Twenty-two specialist doctors and how many Farsi-speaking advisors with him recently?

It's certainly a way to get people to say a bunch of nice things about you on your birthday.

@mattyglesias Absolutely correct if this is an episode of The West Wing

@mmpadellan You're probably missing monthly PG&E bills, corporate tax reform, and single-payer health care; did you follow the recent campaign?

@HunterBiden @SkibidiOHIO676 Did you ever mention this Kushner fellow to your dad and his top-notch attorney general?

@THR As a documentary?

There are moments when silence becomes unbearable in the face of injustice. Being separated from my own child, watching a sacred bond be broken, and living under the weight of narratives that do not reflect the truth is a pain no mother should ever have to endure.

But the truth does not disappear simply because it has been hidden. It remains, waiting to be seen, heard, and acknowledged.

Today, more than ever, I call for justice to do its job. Not out of revenge, not out of pride, but for a child’s right to know the truth and for a mother’s right not to be judged by distortions, omissions, or false narratives.

Time is passing, and every day lost is a day that can never be returned to a mother and her child. That is why this matter is urgent. Justice delayed has real human consequences. Every moment that the truth remains buried deepens a wound that should never have existed.

I will continue to fight through lawful means, with dignity and determination, because facts matter, truth matters, and the bond between a mother and her child matters.

The truth must be revealed. The facts must be examined. Justice must prevail.

For the sake of a child, for the sake of truth, and for the sake of what is right, this cannot wait any longer.

Between Platner and Collins, there's no doubt who one would choose if one wanted the U.S. to continue.

Platner.

People should feel free to launch any criticisms they like, but if that criticism ends with an ambivalence as between Platner and Collins, sorry, you're *outside your damn mind*.

Hear me as a retired defense lawyer when I say this: he knows he raped her. When you read a post like this—which confirms $100M wasn’t enough to shut this rapist up; Carroll will have to sue him again—think of what a psycho you have to be to know what you are and still post this.

@IAmSophiaNelson @glenn_tunes A little bit more than that

[Ruslan Trad @ruslantrad]

A Russian drone has just struck a residential building in the Romanian city of Galați. I expect that tomorrow we’ll see politicians scrambling to find excuses for why there isn’t an appropriate response.

@EdKrassen @grok Hey Ed ask a human brain about the choice of the preposition "in."

BREAKING: There's going to be more talk about finalizing an agreement to start talking.

I had no idea that negotiating an unconditional surrender could take this long

Ashley St. Clair implies Elon Musk interfered in the 2024 election: “In October, Elon tells me he is ready to release his ‘anomaly in the matrix.’ He says he has 10K lasers in space, referring to his satellites. He says this is not a piece they’ll see on the chess board. Shortly after that, he’s sending me internal data from America PAC, real-time delta vote metrics. On election night, Elon left Mar-a-Lago early and he told me yeah I knew hours ago that Trump won, my team has the best real time data. How do you have real time data?”
