@Tilopa We could start giving states only the federal funds they earn. No more blue states subsidizing red states!

I f*kin' LOVE President Biden. Oh my god!

President Carter’s viral essay:
“My decision to sever my ties with the Southern Baptist Convention, after six decades.…was…unavoidable…when the convention's leaders, quoting a few carefully selected Bible verses and claiming that Eve was created second to Adam and was responsible for original sin, ordained that women must be ‘subservient’ to their husbands and prohibited from serving as deacons, pastors or chaplains….”

Mortars of the 3rd Assault Brigade destroy Wagner mercenaries near Bakhmut.

Sure, after his presidency, Jimmy Carter could have just retired to a country club, put out petty diatribes insulting his "enemies," and played lots of golf. Instead, he decided to help build living spaces for people who needed them. He talked the talk and then walked the walk.

This is what it looks like to lead by example.

Biden: A year ago, on the same days, Zelensky and I spoke on the phone. He said he heard explosions - I won’t forget that.

I thought that Kyiv would not survive, neither would Ukraine. But a year later Kyiv endured, democracy endured, and the world endured.

The lengths @POTUS
went through to get to Kyiv, just incredible. What a gargantuan moment in history this is. A great leader is fearless and leads by example. You don't see other leaders going into a war zone. It is quintessentially American & quintessentially Biden. #BravaBiden

#PresidentCarter was under-valued & under-appreciated during his one term as POTUS
But his legacy will live on forever in US history in a most consequential & productive post-presidential life
This nation & the world are so much better for him being in it

Brazil was one of two Latin American countries, along with Mexico, to send troops overseas to fight in WW2. The Força Expedicionária Brasileira (Brazilian Expeditionary Force) numbered over 50,000 strong and fought in the Italian Campaign and the Battle of the Atlantic, serving with distinction.

The soldiers were nicknamed Cobras Fumantes, which translates to Smoking Snakes.

#history #ww2

A special Presidents Day...

Dear #GOP - just a reminder that this is America. A country founded on ideas. We don’t ban books here, we don’t use the government to try to control or constrain thought. We believe in educated people of conscience. Stop behaving like totalitarians. When did you start loving the methods of the former Soviet Union more than your own country? #desantis

And in related news, Russia has been sending Ukrainian children to "re-education camps". But kids are smart. They can see through bullshit...

F China. #China picked a side and they chose #Russia. They launched a spy balloon over our country and they support #PutinsWarCrimes . AMERICANS CAN HELP STOP CHINA, by not supporting China’s economy. Boycott products made in China. Help democracy, #Ukraine and the US.

Biden in Ukraine ahead of war anniversary: ‘Kyiv stands’

President Joe Biden made an unannounced visit to Ukraine on Monday to meet with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, a striking gesture of solidarity that comes days before the one-year anniversary of Russia’s invasion of the country.
