Good to see @realDonaldTrump signing the Hong Kong Autonomy Act into law today. Given Beijing's ongoing crackdown on Hong Kong, this bipartisan legislation offers the administration new tools to respond. Moving forward, I urge the Congress to adopt the Hong Kong Safe Harbor Act. twitter.com/SenToomey/stat…

So predictably hypocritical:
@dmorey saying "fight for freedom, stand with Hong Kong" to support human rights = UNEDUCATED!
@wojespn saying "fuck you" to a Senator worried about Chinese influence in the US sports industry = NICE!

Incredible story by @StandNewsHK on why #HKers vote in #HKprimaries.
We vote as we want to speak freely.
We vote as we oppose arbitrary arrest & censorship.
We vote as we want our kids can live w/o fear.
We vote as we want our voices heard by the world.
We vote as we still can.
