I don't know whether Ukraine will be able to survive. Whether the Ukrainians will be able to keep their independence, their country, their freedom. But their effort to do so has been one of the most valiant and admirable things I have ever seen. What an example they have set.

While the United States has plenty of real problems to deal with, Trump is ignoring them to manufacture fake emergencies.
Why?
He wants more power — and in the process, he’s subjecting millions to real harm.
America’s actual national emergency is Donald J. Trump.

Good morning and Happy Friday to everyone who misses having a President who didn't start dumb trade wars, because he was too busy creating 16 million jobs, signing infrastructure and manufacturing bills, and putting a $35/month cap on insulin.
We were better off under Joe Biden.

Someone explain to me why it's illegal to give an old lady a bottle of water as she's waiting on line for hours in the sun to vote, but it's totally cool for an ultra-billionaire to bribe voters with million dollar checks in Wisconsin.

“Transitioning” from 50 straight months of job growth, a 400% rise in manufacturing construction and the best back-to-back years for the stock market in a quarter century. 🤡
