Seeing Biden in Kyiv, I keep thinking about how the one & only item Trump specifically wanted in the 2016 GOP platform was about weakening military aid to Ukraine.

That was important to him... a long time ago.

There's so much we still don't know. But by denying Trump another term, we may dodged a bullet that would have been very, very bad.

If Big Journalism doesn't start treating the Murdoch family's poison-spewing Fox "News" like the rogue propaganda-for-power-and-money outfit that it is, the craft will demonstrate its utter contempt for journalistic ethics.

The Fox-McCarthy partnership is one of the most egregious examples yet -- and simply covering it as just another story is not nearly enough.

The times grow more and more dangerous, and Big Journalism is not up to the job -- yet. https://www.cnn.com/2023/02/20/politics/kevin-mccarthy-tucker-carlson-january-6-footage/index.html

I love shipwrecks and old washed up boats. I was fortunate enough when I arrived that there was good light and the tide was going out allowing for a nice reflection. This is the Peter Iredale Shipwreck on the Oregon coast.

61 companies agreed to test out a 4-day workweek.

The results are in: Worker satisfaction went up, revenues remained steady — and nearly all of the companies plan to stick with it for now.

Accidentally had an entropy drink instead of an energy drink, and now my molecules are dissipating and scattering randomly into the void

The enthusiastic crowd at Biden's speech in Poland reminds that NATO enlargement wasn't a Ru-West tug of war over passive EEuropeans' fate. CEE majorities asked to join #NATO to be secure and inspired by US presidents talking abt freedom, not invaded and lectured by sullen Ru dictators.

I sound like a US cheerleader, but I don't care. Just compare the energy at Putin's speech and at Biden's. EEuropeans have been on both sides, which one would you pick?

https://t.me/liveukraine_media/6251 ‼️🇸🇰Slovak Foreign Minister gets real with Hungary. The Slovak FM Rastislav Káčer scolded Hungarian Prime Minister Orban with the Russian phrase "F*ck you" for his policies that play into Putin's hands. Káčer argues that military aid to Ukraine is morally right because Russians have invaded the country and are killing Ukrainians. Instead, he noted that Orban's position that "this is not our war" is morally unacceptable. #Ukraine #News #War #Russia #HungaryOutOfNATO

Just a thought: what if we stopped measuring the economy by the state of the stock market and started measuring it based on how many people are housed and clothed and fed?
