- Burst into tears when this push alert landed. I don't have the words. Thank you to everyone who helped make this moment happen. Every post, share, button worn and event hosted/attended mattered. #FreedEvan
- NEW: For a long time, Binance and Binance.US said they were totally separate entities. @kowsmann and I reviewed internal messages showing the companies were deeply intertwined, mixing staff, tech (in China) and finances. 🧵1/8 wsj.com/articles/texts…
- Burst into almost hysterical tears seeing Evan hug his mom. I can’t believe we’re actually here. #EvanFree
- .@SBF_FTX has taken to Substack for his new tell-all. Free with the option of paying him. wsj.com/livecoverage/s…
- My friend and @WSJ colleague Evan Gershkovich has been held in a Russian prison since March 2023 just for doing his job. He now faces a sham trial, and Russian authorities shaved his head. We continue to stand with Evan in every way. #IStandWithEvan #FreeEvan
00:00 - The strongest person I know. Evan should be free, with his family and @WSJ colleagues. We'll keep fighting until that happens. #FreeEvan #IStandWithEvanEvan gave a thumbs-up when asked by the press how he was. And later shared this moment with his lawyers after the judge announced the decision. The legal team said they held out hope the next hearing would be the last.
00:00 - The @WSJ front page today. Evan Gershkovich’s stories have been missing in our pages for one year as of today. This is the journalism that Russia has taken from you. #FreeEvan #IStandWithEvan
- Today is my @WSJ friend and colleague Evan Gershkovich’s 32nd birthday. He’s spending it behind bars in Russia, where he is wrongfully detained for just doing his job. I’m in court today covering Sam Bankman-Fried’s expected testimony. The SBF press corps stands with Evan.
- Evan is caged simply for being a reporter. He’s a friend, a brother and a son (of two parents who fled the Soviet Union). We’re not shutting up, and making noise about his unfair detainment is essential. #FreeEvan #IStandWithEvan How to Help: wsj.com/news/evan-gers…The first proper picture of Evan Gershkovich, the WSJ reporter arrested in Russia on absurd charges, in court ahead of his appeal against his jailing today. So surreal to see Evan, who's covered so many Kafkaesque hearings as a reporter, in the cage
- Lots of tidbits in this story, but here's a favorite: Starting late last year, FTX started calling Bahamian banks with an unusual offer: Deposit your cash in FTX’s crypto-lending platform in exchange for interest of as much as 12%. wsj.com/articles/sam-b…
- It's been 50 weeks that my friend and colleague Evan Gershkovich has been detained by Russia. The support from friends, colleagues and strangers keeps us going. Evan was on the cover of Time magazine. President Biden mentioned him in his State of the Union address. #FreeEvan
