About the #Saudi Crown Prince’s trip to #Turkey: His visit to our country doesn’t change the fact that he is responsible for a #murder. The political legitimacy he earns through the visits he makes to a different country every day doesn’t change the fact that he is a murderer. 
I first invite everyone to think about the international order that left me alone in my fight for justice and forced me to release a statement on state leaders and about the twisted justice system. #justiceforjamal
Jamal is no longer my story and this struggle for justice is no longer my fight alone. It is a fight by every free and thoughtful person.He is unfairly killed, he is someone even without a grave. #justiceforjamal

Okay, I've been rage tweeting about other stuff, but truth is, I miss Jamal and can't let go and can't get over what happened to him. Sometimes we go to anger to run away from guilt and sadness. I hope he approves of everything we've been doing. #JusticeForJamal
He never saw himself as an activist or a dissident. He wanted to always be seen as a journalist. But the energy he brought into our space was enormous. Had he lived, he'd be running an entire pro-democracy ecosystem today. #JusticeForJamal
Lots of great campaigns commemorating the second anniversary of his murder. Meanwhile I'm privately commemorating by seeing Jamal in my heart and recommitting every cell of my body towards what he loved: Free speech & democracy for the entire MENA.
Let's give Kushner a chance. He might have relevant expertise.
Who knows, maybe the cure for Covid-19 is luring it into an embassy, strangling it, and cutting it up with a bone saw.

Who knows, maybe Kushner can orchestrate a naval blockade around Covid-19 (Qovid-19?) and extort it into submission.
On the other hand, he'd probably see if Qovid-19 would be interested in bailing him out of 666 5th Ave first.
It's just in Kushner's RNA.

I’m with human rights advocates to demand that the stonewalling and cover up of the truth about who ordered the brutal murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi come to an end. The first step to justice is truth. #JusticeForJamal pscp.tv/w/cS0W5DFyYVFa…
From day one of his presidency, Donald Trump has made every excuse in the book to cover up for the Saudi government’s subversion of the rule of law. Enough is enough. The Senate has the power to make this information public. #JusticeForJamal
If you want the truth, tell your Senator to support my efforts to ensure that those responsible for Jamal Khashoggi's death are named and held accountable for this brutal murder. #JusticeForJamal
Since Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman came to power, #Saudi Arabia has murdered one journalist and jailed dozens, and is repeatedly accused of hacking.
This is the timeline of Saudi attacks on the press since Mohammed bin Salman was named Crown Prince in 2017.

At @RSF_inter, we work every day to ensure the protection of journalists & to #endimpunity for the alarming number of journalists killed (968 over past 10 years). On International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists, my thoughts are on some specific cases - thread.
@RSF_inter Azerbaijani editor Elmar Huseynov was the first case of a murdered journalist I ever worked on, and will always stay with me. He was gunned down in a contract-style killing outside his Baku flat on 2 March 2005. More than 14 years on, there's still been no justice. #endimpunity
@RSF_inter Elmar Huseynov's murder inspired a new generation of journalists & civil society activists in #Azerbaijan, including Rasim Aliyev - who was himself killed in murky circumstances following the Baku European Games in Aug 2015. I will always remember his quiet heroism. #endimpunity
#JamalKhashoggi's murder reminded us how authoritarians fear a free press.
It exposed the danger of having a U.S. President regularly demonize the media, & laid bare the fragility of our system & how much it relies on the people in power to respect it. wapo.st/2mX26GD

Khashoggi’s murder will be remembered as the straw that broke the camel’s back—a grim reminder that Saudi behavior has strayed so far out of line with our own values that business as usual with the kingdom was no longer in our interests.

Good morning!
Per Congressional request, President Trump’s admin has until *today* to report on Saudi Crown prince Mohammed Bin Salman’s role in Jamal #khashoggi’s killing.
Today, we will see if Trump will let Saudi Arabia get away with murdering a @washingtonpost writer.

The CIA determined in November that MBS ordered #khashoggi’s murder.
Last night, the New York Times reported that intercepted communications revealed that the Saudi Crown prince wanted to “use a bullet” on Jamal as early as 2017.

Our country has convicted people of murder on much less evidence than what we have on Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman. #khashoggi
For those who have been following Jamal #Khashoggi's case--
Back in October, senators triggered the process for possible sanctions on Mohammed Bin Salman. They gave the Trump admin 120 days to respond re: MBS's role.
Trump admin has not responded.
The deadline is tomorrow.

If the Trump admin helps Mohammed bin Salman evade consideration for sanctions, it will only enable MBS’ brutality.

It’s easy to get lost in the grief and outrage over Trump siding Saudi regime that thinks nothing of butchering peaceful journalists in consulates.
But hope is not all lost. Congress must act, and the American people can still help.

1. Trump has basically chosen to ignore the CIA’s “high confidence” conclusion that Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman ordered #Khashoggi’s murder.

In case you missed it, Yemen is on the brink of a famine the likes of which none of us have ever witnessed. There’s no drought, typhoon, or earthquake causing this crisis – just naked lust for power.
Yemenis are determined to help each other through it. Every poor or displaced person in Yemen is only alive today thanks to the generosity and decency of her neighbors.
#SaudiArabia has committed numerous human rights violations. The murder of #JamalKhashoggi is by no means the only reason why the West should consider their relationship and in particular should #StopArmingSaudi #JusticeForJamal
On 17 June 2012 @raif_badawi was arrested on the charge of “insulting Islam through electronic channels”. He had a liberal discussion forum in Saudi Arabia. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison, 1000 lashes & a fine. On 9 January 2015 he received the first 50 lashes. #FreeRaif

Trump made a catastrophic mistake in embracing another dictator, and all he can do is repeat the lies that got us here. Yes, he’s lying about his financial interests. But it’s his “FAKE NEWS” lie—his hatred for the press—that put a target on WaPo journalist Khashoggi’s back.
.@brianklaas: Saudis made a strategic calculation—based on Trump’s dictator worship, hate for the press & his financial interests— that Khashoggi murder was no BFD.
Looks spot on: Trump floats “rogue killers” disinfo. Pompeo flies to SA, thx King for “thorough investigation”🤔

Trump & Pompeo seem to be complicit in Saudi campaign to coverup Khashoggi’s murder—one of the most heinous crimes in recent memory. We hear the right words like “Punish” & “thorough investigation,” but they’re empty of their meaning. We saw this tactic in sham Kavanaugh probe.
