There’s evidence that the fast fashion giant Shein is powered by forced labour.
Shein already tried – and failed – to list on the New York Stock Exchange last year. We’re working with @UyghurStop to stop it listing on the London Stock Exchange:

Widespread destruction in Gaza is no accident—much of it reflects a calculated Israeli policy to make Gaza unlivable.
Trump’s suggestion of “taking over” Gaza and further forcibly displacing Palestinians would amount to an alarming escalation in the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.

I have now seen the Ann Telnaes cartoon of Jeff Bezos's supplication before Donald Trump more often today than I've seen any other cartoon during the entire rest of the year.
So, well played, Washington Post.
