David McBride told the truth. Now he’s in jail. Whistleblowers defend democracy and our right to know. They should be protected, not punished. ✍️ Add your name: https://t.co/GuktCQzWTE #FreeDavidMcBride #PardonDavidMcBride #PressFreedom #Whistleblowers #Justice #Truth

🛑 Every four days, a journalist somewhere in the world is killed because of their work. 72 media workers have died so far in 2025, and 125 in 2024. Violence, intimidation, and censorship are rising in every region. We must defend journalism and protect the truth.
