THE PRISONER ended its run on CBS #OTD in 1968.

Originally broadcast on ITV in the UK, it aired on CBS Sat nights from June-Sept, 1968.

Patrick McGoohan created and starred in this series about a secret agent held captive in a mysterious village. So prescient it's scary. #TVSky #ClassicTV

Dear Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Europe will continue to stand firmly by your side.

For a just and lasting peace.

For a sovereign nation that shapes its own future.

For a country that belongs in the European Union.

Empathy: Nervous systems - wired for connection - begin to hum in harmony. Resonance circuits awaken, allowing us to carry within ourselves a living echo of the other’s inner world. We feel them, not just with our minds, but with the whole of our being.

I can't emphasize enough how brazen this attempt was - to shutter a private, independent, nonprofit organization. It received federal funding - by act of Congress! - and worked for US interests around the world by promoting peace.

We must continue to pray for the rule of law to prevail.

JUST IN: The Catholic Church has elected Cardinal Robert Prevost as pope. The new pope will address the crowd soon. Watch here:
The Catholic Church has elected Cardinal Robert Prevost as pope
White smoke streamed from a chimney atop the Sistine Chapel, signaling to the world that the 133 cardinals inside have elected a new pope. But we don't yet know his identity.

Good morning to readers; Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

It’s not only Ukrainians that fall victim to Russia’s war but also the land.

Russia has destroyed Ukraine’s soil, some of the world’s most fertile.

Oleksii, an environmentalist, thinks it may take over 100 yrs to heal.

The vulnerability the Pentagon was warning about appears to be related to attackers using manipulated QR codes to link people's Signal accounts to their own devices (not a vulnerability in Signal's end-to-end encryption). Signal patched this in an update in February: www.wired.com/story/russia...

With Rubio confirming most USAID contracts permanently canceled - what does that mean for PEPFAR?

- about half of PEPFAR funds go thru USAID. so yeah, a big chunk of PEPFAR is gone.

- If PEPFAR is resurrected at State, unclear how you rebuild it very quickly. Bad news for patients.

If you worked for 18F and got fired, Group together to start a consulting company.

It’s just a matter of time before DOGE needs you to fix the mess they inevitably create.

They will have to hire your company as a contractor to fix it. But on your terms.

I’m happy to invest and/or help

Narcissism at its core is the preservation of the self as both good and grand. Success, power over others, adoration, and approval are a true narcissist’s food, drink, and oxygen, exploiting anything or anyone in the service of their ends. For your consideration: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4BU3...

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
ZELENSKYY: Putin broke the ceasefire. What kind of diplomacy, JD, are you speaking about?

VANCE: I think it's disrespectful to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media

Trump and Vance act as if the problem is that Ukraine is resisting an ongoing Russian invasion. The problem is the ongoing Russian invasion. If they want to use American power to stop the war, apply it to the aggressor. Abusing the victim is not going to end a war of aggression.

Excellent question!
(RNS) — Childlike behavior among adults, especially those in positions of authority and power, is off the charts right now.

But if we live in a culture that doesn’t demand maturity of us or even teach us how to attain it, then how do we go about it?

There's been a shift from maturity meaning you treat yourself and others with dignity and handle your responsibilities, to maturity as the level of influence you wield over others.
