Close the door on yesterday, it’s finished its story.

Francesca Albanese UN Special Rapporteur has been sanctioned by the US government for speaking out in favour of humanity.
she can no longer use a credit card, rent a car, or open a bank account, due to the historic U.S. decision to sanction her.
