🔴 Day 1,776 of the Taliban's oppression against Afghan women and girls.

Five years on, millions are still denied their right to learn.

Where is the world's voice for Afghan women? You are not forgotten.

Yesterday, Saudi Arabia executed another 5 Ethiopian migrants for non-lethal drug offenses, without due process. Saudi's partners shld press the authorities to halt these executions & commute the sentences of the dozens more awaiting a similar fate @hrw https://t.co/GtQjNIU1nA

When Allyson Felix became pregnant, Nike threatened to cut her sponsorship contract by almost 70% because of her pregnancy.

They told her:

“You should know your place… and just run.”

Amid all this, at seven months pregnant, Allyson had to undergo an emergency C-section due to a serious complication.

Her baby girl spent over a month in the neonatal intensive care unit.

But two years later, Allyson qualified for her fifth Olympic Games, with her daughter in the stands cheering her on.

Allyson left Nike.

And she founded her own shoe brand: Saysh One.

At the Tokyo Olympics, she ran wearing her own sneakers, carrying the motto:

“I know exactly where my place is.”

With 11 medals, she surpassed Carl Lewis and became the most decorated American track and field athlete in history.

And to all women, she gave this message:

“I raised my voice and built this company for you, so that you’ll never have to train at 4:30 in the morning, five months pregnant, just to hide it from your sponsor.” ❤️

The Hilton donated the ~2600 dinners that went unserved at WHCD. They freeze dried the steak and lobster for longer shelf life before giving them to 2 shelters for abused women and children. HUGE thank you to the staff that worked through the night under terrible circumstances.

I met with Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD of Ireland. Ukraine deeply appreciates the support and assistance of the Irish people and government, as well as everything they have provided to help strengthen our defense against Russian terror.

We discussed steps toward ending the war with a guaranteed peace for Ukraine and all of Europe, the importance of unity between Ukraine, Europe, the United States, and all those committed to global stability on this path. We also talked about security guarantees and cooperation on Ukraine’s path to the EU. We are grateful to Ireland for standing with us in all of these areas.

We also addressed Ireland’s participation in the Demining Coalition and EU training missions, as well as non-lethal security assistance that will help save lives. Additionally, we discussed our humanitarian initiative, Food from Ukraine, and how Ireland can contribute.

Jennifer Lopez in Vegas endorses Harris and says of Trump: "At Madison Square Garden, he reminded us who he is and how he really feels. It wasn't just Puerto Ricans who were offended that day. It was every Latino in this country, it was humanity, and anyone of decent character."
