The situation at the border is especially bad for Afghans. This is the case of an Afghan asylum seeker and bombing victim who was nearly deported b/c our system is so broken. Thankfully @humanrights1st attorney @monaiman9 was there to help

My client sought the protection of our government following targeted attacks on his life in Afghanistan - he was met with prosecution and unreasonably prolonged incarceration instead.
Please join me in urging @DHSgov to #ReleaseMohammad immediately & ensure a fair trial. Sign👇🏼
🚨For over 17 months one of our Afghan clients, who has multiple claims to asylum, TPS eligibility, & ties to a U.S. mission in #Afghanistan, has been subjected to prolonged incarceration. @DHSgov needs to release him NOW. Read his story: humanrightsfirst.org/library…
My wonderful former colleagues @ImmDef demonstrating the proposed asylum ban in action. There is a shortened window to comment on this shameful policy - please do so at noasylumban.us #noasylumban
In Tijuana doing a legal clinic and trying to explain to people that the reason they can’t take their photo within the CBP One app is because it has trouble recognizing darker complexions. Two @ImmDef lawyers have been working to take one person’s photo for 20 minutes.
On the first day of the Baha’i Fast, I am thinking of my coreligionists in Iran - cradle of the Faith in 1844 - who continue to be imprisoned/tortured/persecuted for their unwavering devotion to a cause that took the first revolutionary steps for the equality of women
Hear the anthem of a woman-led revolution in Iran sung by its defenders in prison. Hear their strength rise.
Shervin’s win is a win for all Iranians, whose dreams & tweets he wove so beautifully into this soul-stirring song. May their dreams be realized in a #FreeIran #GRAMMYs

This is Mursal Nabizadah. She was a former Member of Parliament in Afghanistan and was shot dead in her home last night in Kabul by armed men, alongside her bodyguards.
Taliban ruled-Afghanistan is no longer a place for women. For humanity. For life.
Meanwhile in the US young Black men continue to be murdered by the institutions supposedly funded to protect them.
Keenan Anderson, 31 yo teacher & father, asked for help and was pinned down and tased to death instead.

Iranian protesters Mohammad Boroughani and Mohammad Qobadlou are at imminent risk of execution.
@RoyaBoroumand raises dire due process failures and evidentiary doubts which mar the case.

Child-killing IRI preparing to lynch innocent human rights defenders #MohammadBoroughani, 19, & #MohammadGhobadlou, 22, in mere hours. World leaders should be employing every effort to monitor and stop these murders. #StopExecutionsInIran #محمد_قبادلو #محمد_بروغنی #نه_به_اعدام
#MohammadMehdiKarami, 22 yo karate champion, & #SeyedMohammadHosseini, 39 yo volunteer children’s coach, were summarily executed just two days ago💔 #محمدمهدی_کرمی #سیدمحمد_حسینی #مهسا_امینی
Tyrannical aggressors who thirst for blood instead of the wellbeing of their own people will soon be brought to justice. Until that day and beyond we will not forget these bright, courageous young souls. #IranRevoIution
سال ۲۰۲۲ سال شکوه همبستگی ایرانیان با هر باور و زبان و گرایش بود.
با سازماندهی و همبستگی، سال ۲۰۲۳ سال پیروزی ملت ایران خواهد بود؛ سال تحقق آزادی و عدالت در ایران.

“Either we try Khamenei [for his crimes], or, with honor, our necks are ready for the noose” - says the father of 18 yo detainee, #OmidOmran

آقای ابوالفضل پورعرب؛
پسر من هیچ اشتباهی مرتکب نشده که برایش درخواست عفو میکنی!
مجرم شخص علی خامنه ای هست که برای طناب دارش دنبال گردن میگردد.
یا خامنه ای را محاکمه خواهیم کرد یا با افتخار گردنمان برای طناب دار آماده است!
چند گرفتی گریه کنی؟

Blocking the #AfghanAdjustmentAct is not only a betrayal of our moral values and our partners - it damages our national security.
@SenSchumer it’s not too late - bring the AAA to the floor as an amendment to the FY23 omnibus now foreignpolicy.com/2022/12/20…
#AfghanAllies who risked their lives to support our troops + democratic ideals should not be made to suffer unnecessarily on our soil. Bipartisan #AfghanAdjustmentAct provides revetting + is overwhelmingly supported by veterans + public alike. Bring it to the floor @SenSchumer

It's unacceptable how the @nytimes treats some refugees as a "flood" while other, larger numbers, are just people in need of humanitarian protection. bit.ly/3WdqEWz (1/5)
No! The Islamic Republic regime just executed this brave young protester, Majidreza Rahnavard. No humanity, no due process, the IRNA news bulletin is self-congratulatory as it announces his murder before a crowd in Mashhad 💔 #مجیدرضا_رهنورد #مهسا_امینی
#فوری #ایران_تسلیت
#مجید_رضا_رهنورد سحرگاه امروز ۲۱ آذر بعد از محکومیت در دادگاه انقلاب به اتهام محاربه در ۸ آذر بعد از ۱۰ روز از بازداشت به اعدام و امروز پس از ۲۶ روز از بازداشت در ملاعام اجرای حکم شد.
«مرگ انسانیت» تنها فقط در ۲۶ روز یک از ما معترضین را محاکمه و اعدام کردند.
