@united - flying Polaris from Newark for my wedding. Was so excited! But then CS rep Kimberly Wodzinski accosted me when I sought help with my bags saying people spend a lot of money on their tix unlike me. When I said I did, she then mocked me to other customers. Please help.

It is a historic day as Syrians are rejoicing the fall of the brutal Assad Regime. Today we celebrate freedom from tyranny. 100.000 mabrouk to all our Syrian friends and partners, who have so long dreamed and hoped for this day!

[Rolien Sasse @RolienSasse]

Syria’s #Assad regime has fallen!!! Incredible!

Happy the dictator is gone. At the same time concerned about what will be next.

Syrians so much long for and deserve stability in which all people can be protected. #peace #Syria https://t.co/Fe9P3tHfbF

Always in awe of @CostaRicaONU’s Amb. @MaritzaChanV, a strong woman advancing intl cooperation as necessary to address the Triple Planetary Crisis, incl at @UN #SummitOfTheFuture event on “The Critical Role of #HumanRights in Realizing the #PactfortheFuture” #environment #climate

[Agnes Callamard @AgnesCallamard]

#SummitOfTheFuture; #PactfortheFuture Fifth Draft. Enough Watering Down. With 24 hours to go, some States are trying to further weaken the text and pathway to strengthen multilateralism. Depressing. Predictable.

Proposed language from @RussiaUN and friends to add to the @UN Pact for the Future opening 👀

Basically says "We can all ignore this document and @antonioguterres should write a report about why we can ignore it, and also why the UN is a bit pointless."

Tactically clever, TBH.

[Brittany Roser (she/her) @broserrr]

Fantastic discussion on the gaps and importance of promoting #racialequality in the @UN system on the first days of the #SummitOfTheFuture Action Days.

Check out the @PlataformaCIPO & Blue Smoke report with great recs for making the UN more representative for all.

Work with the @UN, they said. It will be fun, they said.

[Richard Gowan @RichardGowan1]

This is one paragraph from the *250 pages* of edits on the @UN "Pact for the Future".

This is also why multilateral diplomacy is bad for your health.
