I always thought it was CloudFare from hearing people mention it, but it's CloudFlare it seems. Just in case anyone else didn't realize that either... 🫣

My statement on President Trump’s actions in Venezuela.

It's an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president - failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home - decides to launch a war for regime change abroad.

The American people don’t want to “run” a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

I just pulled in the Navigation 3 library for the first time in a KMP project. I can't tell you if it is any good since I didn't write the code myself... But it's working!

Just basic initial implementation so far that uses the following:

👉 MLKit Prompt API (Android)

If you look closely, you can see signs of GOP lawmakers fearing the long-term political consequences of paying more attention to Trump's demands than to the voices of their own constituents - or consciences.
