August 15th marks the grim 4th anniversary of the returning Taliban takeover. For Afghan women and girls, it has been four years of systematic subjugation and denial of their basic human rights. #EndGenderApartheid #StandWithAfghanWomen

In Afghanistan, men are being coerced into policing the women in their lives, enforcing the Taliban’s rules out of fear of social exclusion and punishment.

This is gender apartheid in action, and it must be codified under international law.

Afghan fathers, brothers and husbands are, often unwillingly, inflicting the country’s repressive laws on their families, for fear of social shame or reprisals

NEW: Elon Musk’s X has suspended accounts of Turkish opposition groups, suppressing footage of anti-government protests.

So, best we share all the footage we can here!

This was last night’s massive demo against Erdogan’s government, which follows the arrest of his rival Ekrem İmamoğlu.

Well said @kekerllp.bsky.social! Time for all lawyers and law firms to stand up and speak out. 💪🙏
Our first post is a big one...Statement from Keker, Van Nest & Peters on Trump’s Latest Executive Order “Preventing Abuses of the Legal System and the Federal Court.”

As a patriotic American, a mom, and a lawyer, I stand up proudly to support Perkins Coie and all law firms with courage and integrity to resist the lawless assault on our democracy. It is up to each of us now to speak up and join together to save our freedoms, our country, and our world.

What we are seeing now is lawless, shameful, dishonest thuggery. We must all stand up and speak out against it. Americans stand for democracy, freedom, and truth. We stand with Ukraine.

Here's what the idiots in the White House utterly fail to comprehend. They and the US came out of that argument weaker. Zelensky came out stronger, with Europe rallying behind Ukraine more than before. They came out looking like petulant idiots; he came out looking like a leader with integrity.

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.): "Elon Musk, you didn't create USAID, the United States Congress did for the American people." And Musk "doesn't have the power to destroy" USAID. "We're going to stop him."

"We don't have a fourth branch of govt called Elon Musk!" It's "illegal, unconstitutional."

“Musk had effectively appointed himself an autocrat – the absolute authority in control of American spending, for no other reason than being the president's largest financier.”

‼️ USAID - Musk Takeover

Rep Connolly asks civil servants to stay on the job. 👇
Not a single person in the Executive Branch — not Donald Trump, not Elon Musk, and not any of their cronies — has the authority to shut down USAID. Congress created the agency by statute.

We ask a lot of our civil servants. Today, we ask of them another task — show up to work. Continue to serve.

“Elon Musk Has Plunged America Into a Constitutional Crisis. He Must Be Stopped.”

Powerful and much-needed appraisal from Will Stancil of the meaning of, and fallout from, this weekend’s takeover of the Treasury and USAID by Musk and his minions.
Elon Musk Has Plunged America Into a Constitutional Crisis. He Must Be Stopped.
The world’s richest man, unelected and unvetted, has taken physical control of US government departments, funding, and secrets.

I support this.

Elon Musk cannot dismantle USAID without an act of Congress.

Democrats must use every lever at our disposal to block his illegal takeover and shutdown of an essential government agency.
