Johnny Depp Wins Defamation Lawsuit Against Amber Heard | HuffPost Entertainment

Was this an individual case justly heard or a case of systemic misogynism and domestic abuse against women in America? “Donald Trump Jr boasts Johnny Depp win is end to the ‘rabid feminist’ Me Too movement” but then We know Trump Jnr is an idiot like his father. However, Depp was found guilty in the UK in 2020 but not in America in 2022. What would have happened here?

A divorce settlement will follow the only winners seem to be the lawyers and individual change the system will remain intact and the publishers insured.

Christians in Australia are not persecuted, and it is insulting to argue they are

The ABC USA  has persecuted Roseanne Barr  too

Confusing persecution with marginalisation or disagreement is insulting to the thousands around our world who face actual daily persecution because of their religion or ethnicity. It is insulting to the men, women and children who have been hurt by the church because of their sexuality or gender.

There is an important conversation to be had about what kind of community Australia wants to be in terms of religious tolerance, freedom and genuine diversity. But, please, let’s leave the rhetorical hyperbole at home.

Who Is persecuting Julian Assange?

Britain Challenges Julian Assange’s Asylum in Ecuadorian Embassy as Sweden Vows to

Britain has announced plans to challenge Ecuador’s decision to provide asylum to WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange in its London embassy, saying the $18 million price tag for policing the Ecuadorean Embassy during Assange’s residency is “unacceptable” to the British taxpayer. In response, Ecuador’s Foreign Ministry released a statement saying it is saddened Assange’s confinement has lasted so long, adding that its government had offered “31 times” to facilitate an “open judicial process” in Sweden. This comes just a day after Swedish prosecutors dropped part of their sexual assault inquiry against Assange, but the most serious part of the probe remains in place even though he has never been formally charged. Assange has been holed up in the Ecuadorean Embassy in London for three years, where he’s received political asylum. He fears he will be extradited to the United States to face prosecution for his role at WikiLeaks if he leaves the embassy. We are joined by Carey Shenkman, a First Amendment and human rights lawyer. He, along with Michael Ratner and the Center for Constitutional Rights, is representing WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange.
