Many of HK’s remaining democrats that were not arrested today under the National Security Law are now holding a press conf.
@HKDemocrats chair @lokinhei urged HKers not to give in & look out for each other; questioning why the govt felt the need to arrest the primary organisers.
Patten: "Taking advantage of distractions around the world, the CCP has further turned the screw in Hong Kong. It is now clearly to be regarded as illegal to support democracy."
"When terrible things are happening, we cannot simply look the other way.”

The prayer to open the 117th Congress ended with "amen and a-women."
Amen is Latin for "so be it."
It's not a gendered word.
Unfortunately, facts are irrelevant to progressives. Unbelievable.
Because of the Trump Administration, hospitals are now required, effective immediately, to publish their REAL PRICES, which will create competition and drive downs costs MASSIVELY. Won lawsuit last week. Bigger than healthcare, it’s called PRICE TRANSPARENCY....
[Hongkongers' concerns over workplace censorship at HK Apple Stores] @tim_cook
Dear Mr Cook,
1/ I am writing on behalf of HKers to express our concerns over @Apple’s protection on its employees’ right to free expression after our national security law has been put in place.
BREAKING: Mass disqualifications of democratic candidates in #HongKong happening right now.
Another hammer-blow to Hong King’s autonomy.
“Lifeboat” policies have clearly been inadequate to curb Beijing’s bullying. It’s time for coordinated sanctions.
Li Kwai-wah, from HK Police's National Security dept, said 4 people are arrested today for allegedly making separatist online comments after the natsec law was imposed on June 30.
One example is that they said they "wanted to use all means" to achieve HK independence, he said.
White terror, politics of fear dispersed in Hong Kong under National Security Law. This is the first case that an individual is arrested on the doorstep under #NSL. It targets activists and quashes freedom of expression of HK people. Please be aware of it.
You are correct. That was why we discussed in DC how to make the New Evil Empire🇨🇳& its firms to pay for its future oppression against freedom loving🇭🇰ers.
