We’re in Washington, DC, briefing members of Congress on the Saudi regime. I talked about the contradiction in its claims of women’s reform. And obviously, we have to drop by Rashida Tlaib’s office.

Female asylum seekers report being sexually assaulted by British men. “I was also worried that if I reported the rape it would make it more likely that my asylum claim would be refused.” www.theguardian.com/society/2026...

Just when you think the “free speech” folks can’t get any more disgusting…🤮

At this stage this is no longer about anything except "we should not be held accountable for the racist bile we spew out for money."

True 😂

200+ articles were not enough. Arday is dead, yet the scrutiny continues, now extending to his memoir. The people who rage about “cancel culture” seem remarkably comfortable with it when the target is a Black academic.

@maryamaldossari.bsky.socialAug 27, 2026, 8:40 AM

Nathan Cofnas has “very limited expertise,” a “far-right agenda” and a “lack of transparency around the appointment”, “an ideological choice… decided in advance.” His racist supporters couldn’t imagine a white person being unqualified.

@maryamaldossari.bsky.socialAug 24, 2026, 5:31 PM

So, it is now official. X has confirmed that my account is blocked inside Saudi Arabia following a request from Saudi authorities. This is transnational repression in practice, using global platforms to silence critical voices and control what people inside Saudi Arabia can see.

@maryamaldossari.bsky.socialAug 16, 2026, 8:39 AM

I just read what Dave Harris used to witch-hunt Jason Arday, and it’s pathetic: (1) two quotations in two articles that are similar, not identical; (2) similar descriptions of methodology; and (3) a few similar sentences. Any academic knows this is NOT evidence of plagiarism.
