I wrote about the Ukrainian side of my family and tried to capture a bit about how Ukrainians in the US may be experiencing these horrible events.

I grew up among the ghosts of the Ukrainian diaspora. Those from troubled homelands share a particular brand of hope, a deep desire for the violence to finally be over, coupled with the exhausting...

If Ukraine 🇺🇦 really did attack Twitter, I think the only logical thing is for @elonmusk to sign a cease fire immediately, give them half of Twitter and make sure he says thank you to @POTUS.

Ukraine has been seeking peace since the very first second of the war, and we have always said that the only reason it continues is Russia. I am grateful to every unit and every brigade defending Ukraine’s positions, ensuring the destruction of the occupiers, and making every

Just left Ukraine. What I saw proved to me we can’t give up on the Ukrainian people. Everyone wants this war to end, but any agreement has to protect Ukraine’s security and can’t be a giveaway to Putin. Let me tell you about my trip and why it’s important we stand with Ukraine.🧵

Today, all day long, work continued in the city of Dobropillya, the Donetsk region, following a Russian strike. It was one of the most brutal attacks, a combined strike carefully planned to cause maximum damage. Missiles, along with Shahed drones, targeted the central part of the

We’re told that rural America doesn’t like progressive ideas. Not what I saw today at our great rally in Altoona, WI — population 9,200. People here, and across the country, understand that health care is a human right, and our economy must work for all, not just the few.

That’s a shame. If your Republican representative won’t meet with you because their agenda is so unpopular, maybe a Democrat will. Hell, maybe I will. If your congressman refuses to meet, I’ll come host an event in their district to help local Democrats beat ‘em.
