As we ring in the new year, may it be one that delivers Pakistan from the yoke of military rule, and ushers in an era where people can peacefully protest/speak up for their rights without fear of being disappeared, tortured, and killed. Pakistanis deserve better!

". the ICJ found that the military trials of 105 civilians for offences in relation to violence surrounding the arrest of former Prime Minister Imran Khan in May 2023 fall afoul of core rule of law and human rights principles.".

This is deeply disturbing—@BenMLinden, please raise these concerns at the @TLHumanRights hearing next week. The peaceful leaders of the @BalochYakjehtiC have no recourse against state-sponsored brutality.
Yesterday, BYC leaders have been shifted from Hudda Jail to Civil Lines Police Station, Quetta. Since then, their families have been denied any meeting with them, and the entire area around the police station has been sealed off. We are deeply concerned about the safety and

Many thanks to @RepMcGovern and Rep. Chris Smith for organizing this critical and important event on Pakistan's ongoing political repression. The diaspora is not backing down--these events will continue until Pakistan is free from military rule.

So grateful to @RepRoKhanna for defending free speech and supporting the 27 YouTubers unjustly silenced by Pakistan's military-backed regime. Let's hope his friends in Silicon Valley follow suit @MoeedNj @WajSKhan @SHaiderRMehdi.
Deeply concerned that Pakistan's military regime is attempting to silence independent journalism and pro-democracy activists online. I hope our friends in the US tech community will stand up for freedom of speech and the press.

📢This is huge! One of our champions in Congress, @RashidaTlaib introduced a bold amendment to the DoD bill, calling out Asim Munir. Let’s urge GOP leaders to allow a vote. Call your reps to co-sponsor!.
🚨BREAKING: Possible VOTE in US Congress on Asim Munir's regime. Today, leading Muslim-American Congresswoman @RepRashida Tlaib proposed a House floor vote on a ban of all US military assistance for Pakistan — if human rights-violating dictator Asim Munir keeps clinging to power

Are you threatening diaspora activists? We'll need to report this to the @FBI. Given the Modi govt's alleged involvement in Hardeep Singh's case, are you @sajidtarar inciting similar violence? It might be in your best interest to delete this tweet. @RepMcGovern @TLHumanRights.
Time has come to eliminate TTP, BLA, and PTI from Pakistan. Plus, there must be a crack down on these low class youtubers and uneducated anti Pakistan social media promoters. Learn from India, how they handle their criminals, who are sitting abroad. Enough is enough.

As far as I can tell, people will still be able to access them through their VPNs. All this does is once again expose the moral and legal bankruptcy of our institutions. Not to mention the desperation of the military regime….
The Pakistani military junta has illegally blocked the YouTube channels of exiled Pakistani journalists and commentators, including @MoeedNj, @WajSKhan, and @SHaiderRMehdi. The order is unlawful under the Pakistani Constitution, as none were given a chance to be heard.

“The law blocks anyone from questioning Punjab govt self-promotion or asking about ad spending.”. You can’t make this stuff up!.
Punjab Assembly has passed the Punjab Public Awareness and Dissemination of Information Act, 2025. It became law on June 25. The law blocks anyone from questioning Punjab govt self-promotion or asking about ad spending. It also lets the govt rename any public project.

Corruption is so normalized that the CM’s son “accepting the fine” he received for violating traffic rules is considered proof of integrity. Why are we like this?.
I’ve always been a supporter of CM @MaryamNSharif, but today, I’ve become her biggest supporter. This is how you set an example, that the law is equal for everyone. The traffic police fined Junaid Safdar for violating traffic rules. He could have said, ‘I’m the son of the CM

You know it's time to retire the Nobel Peace Prize when the world's most unsavory characters keep using it to advance their nefarious and evil agendas.
President Trump hosts Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for dinner at the White House. Prime Minister Netanyahu presents President Trump with a letter he sent to the Nobel Prize Committee nominating President Trump for the Noble Peace Prize.

It is, indeed @piersmorgan. Please consider interviewing @ImranKhanPTI's sons regarding their father's ongoing incarceration that the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detentions has deemed illegal.
This is disgraceful.

It's pretty laughable that people with no character, morals, honor, principles or values are attempting to tarnish indomitable people like @ImaanZHazir--what could be a greater testament to her character than her work in service of the most oppressed in Pakistan?.
ایمان مزاری آئین اور انسانی حقوق کی جنگ لڑ رہی ہیں۔ایمان کی کردارکشی وہ کر رہے ہیں جو آئین کش بھی ہیں اور انسانی حقوق کے قاتل بھی۔ہر با ضمیر کے لیے آئیڈیل ایمان ہے۔.Stay strong @ImaanZHazir

Apparently the water rose 26 ft in 45 minutes-at least 50 dead and 29 still missing, including 27 from a girls' summer camp. So much heartbreak.
SERIOUS FLOODING - This is the scene at Shady River RV Resort in eastern Georgetown #Texas. July 5th 1pm. Prayers go out to all people affected.
