Just minutes after three people were violently and arbitrarily arrested, Georgian protesters kept marching and sang the national anthem of Georgia, followed by the European Anthem.

The fact that an indicted war criminal has been invited to the US to meet with the President to look at maps of the country he invaded tells you Putin has already won.

Justice Sotomayor, writing in today's deportation case. How many times must she write, "With fear for our democracy, I dissent," before Republicans get the point? Perhaps only when, as the poem goes, they come for them.

One of the truly great resignation letters of all time. Emil Bove is engaging in unethical and likely even criminal conduct at the highest levels of DOJ. This is a time for all men and women of principle to stand up while so many in the GOP remain silent. AUSA Scotten is a hero.

Peace in Ukraine and Europe’s security are inseparable.
Peace cannot be a simple ceasefire. Russia must no longer be a threat to #Ukraine, to Europe, to international security.
There will be no credible and successful negotiations, no lasting peace, without Ukraine and without the EU.
