🍎🇭🇰 A tragic day for #PressFreedom and #FreedomOfExpression as the only remaining pro-democracy newspaper @appledaily_hk is forced to close down under the pressure from the Chinese state & party leadership. We will continue to #StandWithHongKong ✊ bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-ch…

JUST IN: Vote at UN against the US blockade on Cuba: 184 nations say lift the blockade. 2 say no. United States and I assume, Israel. This is Biden’s leadership? Going against the will of 184 nations? #EndtheBlockade #EliminaElBloqueo
