Liz Cheney: “I say this to my Republican colleagues who are defending the indefensible. There will come a day when Donald Trump is gone, but your dishonor will remain.”

In a district that few in Washington thought would be competitive, Fred Wellman put in the work to build a campaign that could win. I saw it for myself in Missouri this year, and I was proud to be in his corner. Congratulations, Fred!

First things Dems in the House should do: vote to restore the subsidies for ACA accounts and get rid of the cuts to Medicaid & SNAP. On Day One.

Is there any point in the foreseeable future when our compliant, unskilled, stenographic news media recognizes that it has now unquestioningly repeated, for months, Trump's lie about his imbecilic war with Iran ending soon?
He's been implying 'days' for literally three months

The ceasefire announced in Lebanon, however, offers cause for hope; it represents a glimmer of relief for the Lebanese people and for the Levant. I encourage those who are working toward a diplomatic solution to continue peace talks, so that the cessation of hostilities throughout the Middle East may become permanent.

I am deeply saddened by the recent escalation of attacks against Ukraine, which continue to afflict civilians. I express my solidarity with those who are suffering and assure all the Ukrainian people of my prayers. I renew my appeal for weapons to fall silent and for the path of dialogue to be pursued.

I don't care how many years pass, I will always think of Jack Buck and Mike Shannon - especially on opening day.

I met with our military experts who have been in Saudi Arabia for over a week now. Guys reported on the team’s first results and shared conclusions at both the operational and broader levels. The main task of our air defense experts in this region is to identify challenges and determine what changes are needed to strengthen the protection of people and lives from Iranian “shaheds” and missiles. I am grateful to the guys for their exceptionally prompt and thorough work. There are concrete steps we can take together with our partners.
Even in such a short time, Ukrainian experts were able to share extensive expertise and demonstrate how we in Ukraine protect our lives and infrastructure. Ukraine's expertise is unique, and recognized as such, and that is why everyone is so interested in our technologies and experience. We are ready to support the protection of those who help us defend our independence. We discussed the key elements needed to strengthen Saudi Arabia’s air defense capabilities. This concerns, above all, approaches to shooting down drones. Ukraine is ready for long-term and mutually beneficial cooperation. I am proud of our people and the strength of Ukraine.

RIP to James Tolkan aka Mr. Strickland from @BacktotheFuture. I had the honor of meeting him so many times and interviewed him in 2015 for backtothefuture.com I saw him in October last year and you have not lived until he called you a Slacker face to face. #RIPJamesTolkan

Rest in comfort sir
With deep respect and heavy hearts, we remember Walter LaSota, one of the last surviving Marines from the Battle of Okinawa, who passed away at the age of 99. In May 1945, during one of the fiercest battles of World War II, LaSota was fighting at Sugar Loaf Hill in Naha when a Japanese bomb exploded near the foxhole he shared with another Marine. The blast threw him down the hillside, leaving him wounded, unable to see or hear in the chaos. Disoriented and separated from his fellow Marine, he never learned what became of the man beside him a question that stayed with him for the rest of his life.
Despite the devastation around him, LaSota fought on and was wounded twice during the battle, earning two Purple Hearts for his bravery and sacrifice. For decades he carried the memories of Okinawa with quiet strength, representing a generation that endured unimaginable hardship in service to their country.
Today we honor not only a Marine and a survivor, but a witness to one of history's most brutal battles. Rest in peace, Marine - your courage and sacrifice will never be forgotten. 🙏🇺🇸
