Russia launched an unprovoked full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February of 2022. Since then, thousands of Ukrainians have perished. Entire towns and cities reduced to rubble. It will take them decades to recover, if at all. For Trump to casually flip the narrative via tweet is beyond disgusting.

This is bad... How do we make sure our regional food banks get what they need? I think those of us who are able need to make sure we are giving them funds.Its not a long- term fix, but it may help our neighbors in the short term.

I'm not a policy supporter of Boebert. But I really don't like that people make fun of her for having a high school equivalency (GED). I have been an adult educator for nearly 20 years, & I taught GED prep years ago. Adults work hard to get this credential.

In 1985 in Africa 25 vaxxed children were compared with 25 unvaxxed for 5 years. In the vaxxed group one got mild measles while 4 had suspected whooping cough. Among the unvaxxed 11 got measles leading to 2 deaths & an unvaxxed child died of tetanus. This is why we don't do these studies anymore.

If you haven't read "They Called Us Enemy" by George Takei. You should. I'm reading it now, and it is chilling to me that we will do this again.
