Young people are running away from the Republican Party.

Because they oppose the rule of gun cultists and reject the reactionary vision of a world in which they would have far fewer rights than what their parents enjoyed?

Nah. Gotta be the “liberal indoctrination.”

Goodnight Resisters
So far I have planted all my dahlias and today 160 gladiolus.
Still too cool for zinnias. The seeds won't germinate unless soil temperature is 70 or above

Let us not forget that it was the Russian occupation of Ukrainian Crimea, the suppression of Ukrainian and Crimean Tatar freedom, and the oppression of Crimean Muslims that sparked Russia's attempt to enslave Ukraine and other European nations. Unfortunately, evil now reigns in Crimea - under the Russian tricolor. Humiliation, oppression, murder, war... But where evil began, victory over it awaits us. The liberation of Crimea is not only essential for Ukraine, but for the entire world. We must strive for a world order based on the UN conventions and the UN Charter, not on the criminal acts of murderers, rapists and robbers that Russia is trying to propagate. I believe that prayers for peace for our entire land will be answered without exception. Ukraine deserves this as much as all other countries blessed by God with life. We will return to Crimea, and then the world will return to peace, because the aggressor will be defeated. The victory of Ukraine will mean the victory of life - the life of Ukrainians of all faiths, of different origins, but with the same dream and faith: faith in goodness. I said this before the Iftar, which I had the honor to share with our soldiers, as well as with representatives of the Mejlis, the Crimean
