Eyewitnessed damage caused by Russian drone at Chornobyl NPP, including Shahed/Geran drone debris. Potential consequences could have been catastrophic. We must hold Russia accountable, not appease it.

We need to get even louder everyone. Let’s do even more than we’ve been doing. It’s hard work but hard work is good work and it empowers us to kill this corrupt authoritarian power-grab. We’re #StrongerTogether. We don’t obey in advance. We fight back!

So they removed the black chairman of the Joint Chiefs in the middle of his 4-year tour, without cause, and they're seeking to replace him with a white **retired** Air Force three-star general who lacks the requisite experience as a service chief or combatant commander? Huh, how about that

It was an honor to sign the guest book in the home of Anne Frank. I was here as a younger man and thought about her life as a dark chapter of history. Today, I can’t help but think of her story as one of caution. Our world is fragile, and it’s incumbent on us not to break it.

President Zelenskyy has been one of the greatest leaders of our time, guiding Ukraine through the darkest period of its recent history, rising up to Russia’s unwarranted aggression, being an inspiration to the Ukrainian people and ensuring that Ukraine’s voice is heard on the world stage.
