Ironically, it says that they understand what it means to be a journalist. Thanks for asking, though.
"You can criticize me for not having a journalism degree…
But what does it say about the folks with degrees that I replaced them at the Pentagon?"

Putin: ‘Russia is ready to keep fighting until the last Ukrainian dies.’
Western politicians & press: ‘Peace talks have stalled…’
Russia has zero interest in peace. Calling Kremlin demands for Ukrainian surrender ‘peace talks’ is just another way of spreading their propaganda.

I just find it hilarious that his whole cabinet is sloberring praise all over him with ridiculous hyperbole and he is falling asleep while they're doing it.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
