This is a leader who understands contexts and impact of actions. Economic warfare with neighbors we rely on is never a good idea.
Here's the speech if you haven't heard it. 13 minutes of your time. Share it with your American friends and neighbours, because they won't see it otherwise. Circulate it in Mexico and Denmark, France and the UK, Panama and Germany, Poland and Estonia, and especially -- especially -- Ukraine.

What does joy look like amid the tyranny? I share nine notes about my approach to the now and the foreseeable future. Read and let me know what you think.
Some Notes about Joy Amid The Tyranny
As President Trump dropped executive orders at an alarming rate, I celebrated my life. On January 24th, I took time to sit with myself and reflect on the past year. I read messages and took phone calls from friends new and old on my phone. I've traded bottles and blaring speakers for DayQuil and napkins after recent spats with the flu that passed through our family.

"In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now."
