    The Kingdom has a major credibility problem...why should we believe you?

    Reports that we ordered anyone related to the Saudi sisters, Tala and Rotana Farea, God rest their souls, (who recently died tragically in NY), to leave the US for seeking asylum; are absolutely false. Details are still under investigation and will be shared in due course.

    “If Saudi Arabia faces no consequences for Jamal’s murder, it sends a powerful message of tolerance, perhaps even encouragement. And every journalist in every country will be at greater risk.”

    News about arrests of Egyptian journalists, academics, lawyers, and human rights activists by Sisi's regime have become routine to the point of being glossed over in the news cycle. The world has completely sold out Egypt's rights community, and guaranteed Sisi complete impunity.

    Remember Saudi writer Raif Badawi? Still unjustly jailed for his writings with 10 year sentence and 1000 lashes. Good time to demand his release.

    We're jailed, tortured, exiled, shot, killed, crushed, and coerced for demanding rights that you get handed down from your parents as birthrights (and to add insult to injury, they then tell us that we're "not ready for democracy"). Don't take your rights lightly. Go vote.

    Seeing young people initiated into adulthood by going to exercise their right to vote almost brings tears to my eyes. You guys are so lucky and you shouldn't take this lightly. Nobody in my family has ever had the right to vote.

    Our Danny Boy voted for the first time. Raza is voting like crazy in the hood! Polls were 🔥 in NS as we all voted for & ✊🏽💯
