BREAKING:
Dozens of winners of 2020 #HongKong pro-democracy primaries, such as Lester Shum, Ventus Lau, Fergus Leung and Gwyneth Ho, have been arrested under the National Security Law.
Worse still, there is #NO presumption of innocence under the #NSL.
Winning an election is subversion of the state.
Ok then.
A reminder that we signed a treaty promising to protect #HongKong from stuff like this. Where are those promises now?
[Just In] Former lawmakers James To, Andrew Wan, Lam Cheuk Ting were arrested by police national security branch this morning for last yr legislature election. Police said “35+” (winning the majority in LegCo election) was an act of SUBVERSION, in violation of the NSL.
When US is handling the election certification, HK gov just arrests nearly all pro-democracy activists and nominees in the primaries today.
As a nominee in the democratic primaries, I urge the US gov and Free World to stay alert and stand with HK by all means.
@JoeBiden@POTUS
.@joshuawongcf and @chowtingagnes were arrested today in Hong Kong. They and millions of other Hong Kongers want nothing more than the rights promised them by #China under international treaty. I will continue the fight to hold Beijing accountable #StandWithHK

One unarmed civilian vs numerous #police in full gear... What was his chances to harm the #HKpolice? What on earth did he do to deserve to be beaten so badly by #Police?
#HongKong
I am extremely concerned about reports of pro-democracy leaders arrested in #HongKong over the weekend, part of a pattern of repression by #CCP. The US must continue to #StandWithHongKong and their struggle for #democracy
Breaking‼️ This brave man was arrested by the police, but what he did was harmless.
1. Stayed on the road to prevent police vehicles to move forward, protecting thousands of people behind.
2. Handed the white bow to the police.
