Everyone needs to know what actually happened in Serbia. Instead of students just protest against their government, the students organized themselves into a student list and ran in elections against their government—and they have just won. Dear Serbia, congratulations on your victory; you have just opened a new door in protesting. This is history

Yesterday we saw two sides of masculinity. MP Helen Haines lost a leg after being rammed by an angry man. Ricky Jefferies then disarmed the knife-carrying driver. One man brought violence; the other courage. Forget the toxic manosphere. Real strength is about making people safer.

The ABC is trying to intimidate the president of our union and stop him from speaking out on matters that concern union members. Michael speaks for us and we stand with him. #standwithmikey #PressFreedom @withMEAA

Today, union members are showing their support for delegates to advocate on their behalf. Union delegates must be free to speak up for journalists and the public’s right to know. #ISTANDWITHMIKEY #PressFreedom

This is an attack on the very possibility of holding those responsible for the gravest crimes accountable under international law, no matter how powerful they may be. What is at stake is not only the future of the Court, but the future of international justice itself.

Today, the Trump Administration is sanctioning the ICC. This action should encourage our Allies within the Court to work for solutions to end this threat to U.S. sovereignty forever.
