Sandhill Cranes typically fly with their long legs trailing behind them. On very cold mornings, like this morning when it was in the single digits, they will tuck their legs in while in flight.

I have repeatedly emphasized the danger of further Russian occupation of Ukraine, because it would mean that Russia, preparing for a future war in Europe, would gain not only Ukraine’s infrastructure, but also additional mobilization potential - Ukrainians who know how to fight.

Really something to think that one man--Donald Trump--is letting his minions freelance the fate of not one but two countries' citizens (Ukraine and Venezuela), and those minions don't agree on much but most want to sell out one and bomb the other, and the world is reduced to tantrum management.
One man -- Marco Rubio -- serves this country as both National Security Adviser and Secretary of State.
And he was nowhere near the drafting of that Ukraine 'peace plan,' which was instead devised by the president's real-estate buddy and his son-in-law.

Their goal is not complicated: This is a deliberate strategy to defund and privatize public education in America.
This is moving us in exactly the wrong direction.
I call on the Department of Education to immediately reverse course and do its job: strengthen our public schools, not dismantle them.

Exclusive: The Education Department plans to move multiple parts of the agency to other federal departments, an unprecedented effort to dismantle an agency created by Congress to ensure all Americans have equal access to educational opportunity.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March seeking to close the department, but only Congress has the power to do that.
