These people are completely, unironically, way more representative of (a good part of) the Dem base, than some weirdos who watch dumb dumb streamers.

Russia, across the decades, is an aggressor.
On September 17, 1939, the Soviets attacked Poland, joining Nazi Germany in the invasion. For 2 years, the Gestapo & NKVD cooperated in suppressing the resistance, torturing and murdering freedom fighters. Moscow also grabbed territories from Finland and the Baltic states.

The Kennedy Center’s Grand Foyer is 630' long and 63' high. The crystal chandeliers were hand-blown by @orrefors and an official gift by the Kingdom of @Sweden in 1971. The huge mirrors at left were a gift the Kingdom of @Belgium on behalf of its people and nation.
A detail worth noting in the Kennedy Center madness is a magnificent 12,000 crystal lighting array at the Opera House created by J & L Lobmeyr, who also made chandeliers for the Vienna State Opera and Schönbrunn Palace. It's an official gift from the Republic of Austria, meant as a permanent memorial to President Kennedy.

Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the WH press corps. You’re laughing but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated a behavior like that from me.”

It’s 11:45 PM in NYC and the subway platforms are packed. While the rest of the continent’s transit shuts down for the night, New York proves the golden rule of public transit: build reliable, 24/7 service and riders will come.

The damage Netanyahu has done to Israel is incalculable. There has been a 67% shift in America’s attitude toward Israel over the past 8 years. That’s not because the US has become 67% more antisemitic over the past decade. It’s because of his radicalism.

If you're not from DC or the DMV, you may not get why this of all things is bringing people into the streets. People have had 1st dates w/ their spouses here, been introduced to ballet or opera, or just gone on a crisp fall day to watch the planes fly over. Truly very special.

I swear to god, one of the thoughts that I had when I was in China was “wow, they really love Chinese food here.”
As a devoted student of posting, this is my favorite tweet. It is the pinnacle of the form. Pitch perfect.

Gen. Petraeus: Russia loses more than 1,000 soldiers killed and wounded every day. A Ukrainian corps commander told me they captured a Russian who had served under two weeks, including oath, kit and transport to the front. FPV drones find such men within 5 to 10 minutes. 1/

Freddy genuinely may have a full blown brain aneurysm come Saturday when he experiences a real SEC home environment for the first time 😭
This is the most “The European mind can’t comprehend this” moment of my life. One of my friends said, “Punch me five times tomorrow and I’ll still think this isn’t real.”
