#Belarus Happening right now in #Minsk. Independence square is blocked, there are rumours that the internet will be shut down. Eyewitnesses noticed water cannons. Police vans are in many spots around the city. #Lukashenko is scared of yet another day and weekend of the protests

The fact that Lukashenko and his regime haven't been sanctioned is outrageous. He is committing human rights abuses on a large scale. Tortures, murders, beatings, etc w the help and full support of Putin. The world needs to act now
Seriously wtf is this. So outraged that Lukashenko has launched a full scale war on innocent protesters demanding free and fair elections

As goes Belarus, so goes American resistance to a 2020 stolen election.
Here we are.
2016 was the most critical election of American history.
