The future of money is also a contest over freedom. As authoritarian regimes use financial systems to surveil, isolate, and punish critics, free societies have a strategic interest in setting the standards for lawful, transparent, and freedom-enhancing financial tools.

This attack tonight on the Monastery by the Russians in Kyiv makes no sense. It has a parallel with the bombing of London’s St. Paul’s in 1940 by the Germans. It won’t work. Someone tell me the military necessity of the Russian attack. There is none.

The collective memory of repressive brutality threatens authoritarian regimes fundamentally. This is why the Chinese Communist Party tries to extinguish the history of Tiananmen. Remember!
37 years after the Tiananmen Square Massacre, the images of the lone man who faced down a line of tanks, and the Goddess of Democracy statue, continue to inspire people around the world. Yesterday at @NEDemocracy, Chinese democracy leaders, Hong Kong activists, Tibetan and Uyghur advocates, and others reflected on their enduring struggle for freedom and the importance of preserving the truth of June 4, 1989. Their courage reminds us that repression cannot extinguish the human desire for liberty. At NED we are proud to stand with those who choose freedom. 🎥 Watch highlights from the event.

SECRETARY RUBIO: Cuba is actually not controlled by the government. Cuba is controlled by a military holding company named GAESA. GAESA owns virtually everything, and not a penny of that money translates over to the public treasury.

Absolutely unacceptable. This is what's left of our @WFP warehouse after a missile strike in Dnipro, Ukraine—and the remaining food stocks for 130K people on the frontlines of war and hunger. These deliberate attacks MUST end. Aid workers and humanitarian assets are #NotATarget.

Putin’s attack - including a hypersonic missile - was designed to terrorize and kill civilians. Pure evil. Now, even with its advance stopped, Moscow’s desire to invade Europe remains. Deterrence requires the West to impose costs on Russian military and dual use infrastructure. The people and leaders of Ukraine are defending their nation’s sovereignty.  All of Europe should support them, and American sovereignty benefits from Ukrainian security and victory as well.

New developments associated with the Alberto Nisman murder case: 1. NEW: Former Argentine prosecutor Viviana Fein has been charged with concealing evidence in the 2015 death of AMIA investigator Alberto Nisman. She faces up to 3 years in prison if convicted. The judge ordered a preventive freeze of 15 million pesos on Fein’s personal assets. 2. Nisman was found shot dead on January 18, 2015, just hours before he was to present evidence to lawmakers accusing then-President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner and a dozen of her cronies of covering up Iran's role in the 1994 AMIA bombing, which killed 85 people. 3. Fein had admitted that investigators used toilet paper from the apartment's bathroom to wipe down parts of the .22 caliber Bersa pistol to find its serial number. This severely compromised potential fingerprint and external DNA evidence. 4. The magistrate reported that the prosecutor “manipulated and/or allowed the manipulation and alteration of evidentiary elements without proper authorization,” including serious failures in the chain of custody of the weapon that fired the fatal bullet, which was in different locations in the apartment without control. 5. Judge Julián Ercolini found that Fein allowed some eighty people to enter Nisman's apartment, trampling around without protective gear and other controls, in the hours after his death, potentially contaminating or destroying evidence. Fein denies the charges. 6. A 2017 forensic report concluded Nisman was assassinated for his role in investigating the AMIA bombing and calling out Iran for its role. Fein, who her critics say tilted the Nisman murder investigation to politically shield the Kirchner administration from murder suspicions, initially said she believed he committed suicide, a critical backdrop to the new judicial development. 7. Argentina's Supreme Court ordered Kirchner to stand trial in connection with an MOU with Iran, which Nisman said was aimed at absolving Iran of its role in the deadly bombing. The trial has not yet been scheduled. The former president is serving a 6-year sentence under house arrest in a separate corruption case. She has a lifetime ban on holding public office again. #AlbertoNisman may no longer be physically present, but many are determined to see that justice is served in his murder case, in the alleged attempt by Kirchner and her cronies to white wash Iran’s role in the AMIA bombing, and in holding the Islamic Republic of #Iran accountable in the AMIA terrorist attack, the deadliest bombing in Argentina’s history.
