But we didn't have economic stagnation for the working class. We had a period of unusually *high* wage growth for low income workers.

🇨🇭🇺🇦 Budanov: On the way to Geneva. The next round of negotiations is ahead.
Along the way, we will discuss the lessons of our history with our colleagues, seek the right conclusions. Ukraine's interests must be protected.

I am Graham Platner's age. I too was in the post 9/11 military. I also grew up in a small town in the Northeast US. I am also a college dropout with PTSD. And I am telling you: anyone from my demographic who had a Nazi tattoo for 15 years is either a Nazi or too dumb to be an effective US senator.

A young mother of two was killed just six days before what would have been her 25th birthday.
Liliia made a choice that few can truly understand. She volunteered for the Armed Forces of 🇺🇦Ukraine and asked her own mother to raise her children while she went to serve.
