Em casa, na rua, onde quer que seja necessário defender a liberdade, de todos e para todos

Bom dia da liberdade a todos.

Há 50 anos, todas as pessoas em Portugal puderam votar pela primeira vez em liberdade. Não esquecemos quem lutou e não paramos enquanto todas forem ouvidas, representadas e livres. A liberdade conquista-se — e defende-se.

Liberdade para pensar. Liberdade para fazer, dizer, viver. Liberdade para ser. Há 51 anos, foi conquistada. Hoje e sempre, não a deixe fugir. 📷 Pedro Fiúza/NurPhoto via Getty Images

Se lhe pedirem "reserva nas comemorações" da Liberdade, desconfie. #novilíngua

Obrigado, a todos os que fizeram o 25 de Abril há 51 anos. Sem vocês não existíamos, sem vocês não existia Liberdade de Imprensa. Obrigado, eternamente gratos❤️ Viva o 25 de Abril, há 51 anos, hoje e sempre!

A liberdade está na rua! 📸Jorge Horta

I don't see how 104% tariffs on China will help Americans, and I see lots of ways they'll hurt. Let's explore iPhone economics.

This is a reminder that you can oppose 1) antisemitism, 2) the Gaza genocide, 3) the October 7 attacks, and 4) the current assault on universities, at the same time, and with no contradiction.

Assad has fallen. Overnight, a lot happened. Homs was captured by rebel forces, but most important: the capital Damascus has been captured and Bashar Al-Assad has fled. Everywhere, Syrians took out on the streets.

close to tears reading about the Pelicot case - that she learnt after the fact that she'd been raped by dozens of men while drugged by her own husband and decided that the entire trial must happen in public shows a moral and mental strength I can't even comprehend www.theguardian.com/world/articl...

O caso de Gisèle Pelicot. É tão duro, tão horrível. Não consigo parar de pensar, de ler, de ouvir. A dor que a gente sente é a da verdadeira sororidade. É a tradução de uma coisa que mexe com todas. Todas nós. O horror. g1.globo.com/mundo/notici...
