Democracy, civility, justice for all, rule of law and no matter what, golden retrievers. The more golden retrievers the better.

Thoughtful conversation wildly welcomed. Rude political responses instantly blocked.

Remember: Viktor Orban has built a corrupt, stagnant Hungary that is much poorer than it should be

MAGA conservatives love Viktor Orbán. But he’s left his country corrupt, stagnant, and impoverished.

Terrific news, @stevanzetti.bsky.social!
Turns out the headline the editor chose for my report on the location of the proposed ICE detention center in Hutchins, Texas was wrong. A massive public uproar followed our reporting and the owner said they will not be selling the warehouse to ICE as of today.

In the Navy, NASA, and the Senate, I’ve served under many presidents whose integrity and dedication to upholding our Constitution made our country stronger. On Presidents’ Day, I’m especially grateful for the leaders throughout our history who’ve embodied those principles.

Trump claims to be “Working Hard” in his President’s Day Truth Social post.

He is currently enjoying a 4 day Palm Beach golf getaway.

This President’s Day, I’m reminded of the immense responsibility of the presidency — and the extraordinary potential of the office when it’s held by leaders who understand it is a sacred trust.

The Melania movie is on track to lose Amazon tens of millions of dollars.

The company paid $75 million to acquire and market the movie. In the best-case scenario, the movie is on track to bring them in $10 million.

Canada is now the first non-European country to be granted a membership in SAFE. This is a gamechanger program that means Canada can rearm our Canadian Armed Forces members more effectively and scale up our defence industries with more contracts overseas.

Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, President Zelenskyy emphasized that Putin is inseparable from war, asserting that the Russian leader would never abandon his pursuit of it. That is exactly why the world should not wait and unite against Russian aggression...

“LeBron, we don’t need you to solve Gaza. We need you to see Gaza. We want you to acknowledge Palestinian lives as worthy of the same empathy you have so powerfully demanded for others.”

From my open letter to ⁦‪LeBron James:
An Open Letter to LeBron James on Israel, Gaza, and ‘Nothing But Great Things’
The NBA star’s recent praise for Israel, as the genocide continues, was as bewildering as it was shameful. What happened to his support for social justice?

We’re not calling it “enforcement” anymore, that implies what DHS is doing in our cities is about upholding our laws. Here’s what the violent crackdowns mean for the midterms and what we can all do to flip the script. 🔗 https://www.ifyoucankeepit.org/p/stop-calling-it-immigration-enforcement

Russia’s regime doesn’t limit itself to bombing Ukraine, it also keeps silencing opponents at home.

Two years ago, Alexei Navalny died in a Russian prison camp, poisoned with a lethal toxin. The Kremlin bears full responsibility. (1/3)

Your Presidents' Day reminder that patriotism isn't about attacking immigrants, cutting taxes for the rich, or dividing us by race & faith. True patriots don't pander to divisiveness or hate. They work to confirm the "WE" in "We the People of the United States."

According to the precedent set by the United States in Venezuela, if an indictment is issued against Putin, the Ukrainian government can send in their military to capture him by force, right?
