This is precisely why this woman did not overwhelmingly win the presidential election. She is so out of touch with the base. So out of touch. So cold. And almost sinister.

BREAKING: The confederation of Spanish universities will cut ties with Israeli universities and research centers.

The nation he refers to has endured the APS massacre, the Qissa Khwani Bazaar massacres, the Alamdar Road massacre, & numerous other horrific acts of terrorism, the intensity of which is measured by their death tolls. How can the impact of a few burnt buildings outweigh all that?

'Deeply saddened by the reprehensible bombing of a private girls' school in Shewa, North Waziristan. Every child deserves a safe environment to learn and grow. We vehemently condemn this act of violence and stand in solidarity with the affected community. #ProtectOurSchools '

Shocking images of state repression coming out of Dadyal AJK, of schoolgirls hospitalised after being subjected to tear gas & protestors brutalized & arrested en masse. The geniuses in charge keep setting things on fire & then wonder why it's getting warm. #RightsMovementAJK

ANP is super lucky to have Mehrub Awan who is a treasure of knowledge.

Congratulations to Awami National Party to have Dr. Mehrub.❤️

Indeed a tragic day as a year ago another civilian prime minister was illegally picked up by paramilitary forces who broke into a high court, & people’s protest against it was met by a brutal crackdown on families, an entire political party, & a 4 day network shutdown #NeverAgain

9th May, as condemnable the acts of violence on that day might be, was used as an excuse to justify unimaginable atrocities against a political party, atrocities the sole aim of which was the absolute & complete desolation PTI. The estab committed such heinous crimes 1/4

Deeply disappointed and ashamed of UMass Amherst in how they've handled peaceful protest on our campus. This is deeply inconsistent with how I understand our values. Chancellor Javier Reyes, this is not the university I want to teach at.

State Dept. Spox Matt Miller on US holding back 2000 and 500 pound bombs from Israel: We have paused one shipment of near term assistance, and we are reviewing others.

This is a monumental occasion for Pakistan as the last time the team entered the final was in 2011. I am very proud of my team for their hard work and sportsmanship, I am thankful to be their Captain and to have had the opportunity to have been coached by Roland Oltman. 🇵🇰🏑

We saw this with PMRA that was proposed by the PTI, social media rules introduced by them, then the e-safety bill which received the principle approval under the PDM government, now this proposal. Faces changes, policies don't, there's a continuum. They get from bad to worse.
