The sheer disrespect shown towards President Zelenskyy today in the Oval Office will be a stain on America for the rest of our lives. Disgusting. President Zelenskyy did right by the Ukrainian people today while the grifter in the Oval Office and his side kick were national embarrassments.

I love upworthy articles when I'm feeling disillusioned. This ADHD study totally tracks for me as an adult with ADHD. My symptoms are very mild when I am overextended. Times with little stress and commitments are much harder to wade through.
