Under this administration, if Tara Reade were to return to the US, she would likely face wrongful arrest and imprisonment. The US justice system has been increasingly weaponized against those seen as “political opponents” under the democrat party which is truly saddening and
Four and a half months ago Princess Latifa - the daughter of Dubai’s all-powerful ruler - made a daring escape from the UAE. Her plan was intercepted on the high seas & Latifa was kidnapped. She hasn’t been seen since. Where is the missing princess?

Amazing technology, graphics etc. Let’s just hope the government never gets an override control. That is my biggest concern for the future of autonomous driving.
Whatever dangers Rahaf faced before she took to social media, the fact is, now that she has criticised Saudi Arabia, Islam, her family, and ‘shamed the nation’; Every reason to fear that she could be jailed for many years and be subject to human rights violations

Australia needs to issue urgent travel warnings to citizens and residents to avoid countries like Thailand, who appear to be cooperating with authoritarian Middle Eastern regimes

Of course it's a battle of free speech and censorship. If people want a censored version of the news, they can go to the Australian mainstream media. If they want to participate globally at their own risk, that is their decision and it should be without government interference.
Tara Reade went to Russia to oversee the translation of her book with just a week's worth of clothes. She has been forced to stay in

due to genuine intelligence regarding her personal safety. This is not an easy situation for her but she is strong.

The UK already has a large Muslim demographic with smaller land mass than the US. They have also taken a massive influx of Ukrainians. It needs to halt in the UK. I don’t think Americans will be very happy about Biden‘s plan either.

Yes Thailand, Australia needs to pressure Bahrain to drop the request too, but they should not have to in fact. Thailand should understand that detaining
#SaveHakeem
on behalf of Bahrain is supporting a country known for torture & human rights abuses. This is a Thai issue.

laws need revision to protect non-Americans from being plucked from third party countries and jailed in the US. Universal jurisdiction is a risk to everyone. Why should foreigners need to learn and adhere to US law?

The whole system is at fault. Interpol should not have issued the report in the first place, Australia shouldn’t have let Hakeem travel, and Thailand should not be entertaining the request. The system is in chaos & serious reform is needed.

Sheikh Mohammed invited a group of UN delegates to the palace for dinner over the weekend. I’m pleased to see the increased cooperation as a result of
#PrincessHaya
’s custody dispute, and expect Latifa to meet with UN delegates herself shortly.
Sheikh Mohammed *telling* the UN that Latifa is “alive & well” is insufficient to satisfy English courts that Princess Haya’s children would be safe with him. If Latifa is alive, well and free, then she needs to speak directly to United Nations delegates from a place of freedom.
@JaneCaro
Fact check that propaganda. Whoever gets selected has to abide by the court rulings. Trump has specifically said he will not be getting involved and those decisions are with the courts and with the states. Let’s be real.
Thailand's decision is hugely important, not just for Australians, but for the world. It will show us whether authoritarian gulf states can abuse & extend power beyond their borders, a dangerous & important issue. After

Any objective onlooker can see this is a faulty ruling and an example of weaponization. Imagine if someone didn't have the money to appeal or worse, that they sit in jail pending appeal? Judges SHOULD care that their rulings are going to be overturned. The Judge should be
Outrageous rumors of

From the beginning of this saga, the UAE has been trying to shut the story down. But

Great news that

There has been no sign of

The Interpol foundation is largely funded by gulf nations, the same gulf nations who abuse Interpol’s database on a regular & increasing basis. Western countries must insist Interpol makes reforms & sanction abusive member states or suspend their own funding.

If Rahaf is sent to Saudi against her will, it is unlikely she will ever be heard of again. She has fled her "guardian” (without his permission), shamed Saudi & renounced Islam. As shown, Saudi policy is to kill or jail/torture.

Our client, Tara Reade, accused Joe Biden of sexual assault. She wants her testimony to be heard in Congress under oath and will not let the fact she is suddenly and unexpectedly stuck in Russia, thwart her efforts.
Despite this week's tabloid headlines, she has not "defected"
Just spoken with Dua who is very thankful for everyone’s support. It’s a nerve racking situation for anyone who has fled with absolutely nothing & clearly a desperate situation for anyone to do that.

I recently made a United Nations application regarding some extreme torture practices for politically motivated reasons. The Indians also kidnapped foreigners from yours in international waters and sent them to Dubai, where they were wrongfully detained and tortured.
