All flights grounded nationwide? After 2 hrs on the tarmac we had to deplane, this red eye flight just got a lot longer with no end in sight. #Crowdstrike
Something super weird happening right now: just been called by several totally different media outlets in the last few minutes, all with Windows machines suddenly BSoD’ing (Blue Screen of Death). Anyone else seen this? Seems to be entering recovery mode:
Israel does not want peace. They want Gaza.
They want to slaughter Palestinians, drive them into the Sinai Egyptian desert and eradicate Palestine.
Yet, our political leaders still refuse to call for an immediate ceasefire.
I echo the @StateDept call for a full investigation of election interference and fraud in Pakistan. Now is the time for the international community to stand on the side of the people of Pakistan. We cannot recognize a new government until it is clear that democracy has prevailed.
This is a critical moment for Pakistan.
I am deeply concerned by the growing evidence that the military is interfering and rigging the result to overturn the will of the Pakistani people.
The US should not recognize a winner until all the facts are investigated.
The EU has issued a statement that criticizes, albeit relatively mildly, Pakistan’s election. Expresses “regret” about its non-level playing field and “allegations of severe interference,” among other things. Calls for an investigation. https://t.co/nSeYbYmvob
As results come in for Pakistan’s election, things not going as planned for the men in khaki - Imran Khan’s independents in a shock lead despite locking him & many of his colleagues up, taking away his election symbol and preventing them campaigning #silentrevolution
