Russia failed to conquer Ukraine. So Trump is handing Putin what he couldn’t win on the battlefield. Territory. Limits on Ukraine’s military. And $300B in assets. Shameful. Dangerous. Unacceptable.

Tonight, we did something everyone counted out. We proved to a nation that states like Tennessee are still worth fighting for. The margin was close, and that can only be attributed to the thousands of volunteers who showed out. This is just the beginning.

Our leader is having repeated trouble staying awake at public events he's hosting; is acting more erratically online and in public; is making decisions that are doing clear material harm to the country & our allies. Simply, his declining health must become a bigger issue.

Intolerance occurs when individuals reject, disrespect, act prejudicially toward or attempt to silence those with different behaviors, beliefs, language styles, poltical views, values, etc. Intolerance stems from a lack of self-awareness and of grace.

The Long History of the ‘Hamnet’ Myth
The belief that his son’s death inspired Shakespeare to write Hamlet is itself inspired by an enduring, compelling, and highly questionable theory.

VP Harris was going to build over a million new housing units and give first-time homeowners $25,000 toward their down payment. But too many voters couldn't bring themselves to vote for a Black Asian woman. I hope they enjoy their 50-year mortgages.
