#PACE hearing on Julian #Assange's #detention and conviction and their chilling effects on human rights


watch: https://www.youtube.com/live/Mq85IZMeigc?t=746s

It is a shame for Western democracy that neither #Sweden nor the #UK have a review and a committee of inquiry into the failure of justice and US interference in the supposedly independent judiciary in the Assange case. Unfortunately, many politicians in Western Europe believe that human rights are only violated in Russia, China or Afghanistan, but not on their own doorstep. Distracted by the many crises and the rise of far-right parties, Europe is heading straight into diabolical chaos 😱

Steve Schmidt explains why Donald Trump will become the next Hitler if he wins

“When the next Hitler comes... maybe... it will present itself like this; on a stage in Butler Pennsylvania. Two fascists, one jumping for joy; joy for what? power, and money, and the thrill of taking from you everything and anything that should matter; starting with your freedom and your liberties as an American.”

In the wake of the October 7th attacks, US college campuses were torn apart by disputes over Israel, #antisemitism and the limits of free speech.

Largely missing from the political debates: actual data on whether Jewish students were threatened, and whether non-Jewish students were acting on antisemitic views.
Researchers from Brandeis University have been gathering that information.

A wide variety of American Christians from different denominations are speaking out against Christian nationalism, a once-fringe movement steadily gaining political power in the U.S.

Why it matters: The pushback comes as critics worry rising Christian nationalism is threatening the nation's multiracial democracy and as a record number of Americans identify as "religiously unaffiliated."

Before a large crowd Saturday, Musk sought to portray Trump as a champion of free speech, arguing that Democrats want “to take away your #freedom of speech, they want to take away your right to bear arms, they want to take away your right to vote, effectively.” Musk went on to criticize a California effort to ban voter ID requirements.
