America has lost a titan in the struggle for civil rights and racial justice. From his days at the side of Dr. King, to his moral leadership in this century, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr. spent his life pushing our nation closer to its own ideal.

Apparently people aren't excited about spending $56,000 per ticket to attend a World Cup game.

Hmmm, what else could be contributing to a lack of hype?

Greetings from Kyiv
and warcoffee.

Thank you to those who worried.
I’m fine, just needed a bit of offline time.
It’s been a calm day here, and that’s a blessing.
Snow and frost are expected.

Have a gentle Sunday.

15 years ago today I arrived on Downing Street in a cage.
I've seen off Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss and Sunak and I'm still going strong.
Only two Prime Ministers have ever done longer stints here: William Pitt the Younger and Sir Robert Walpole.
Bill and Bob - I'm coming for you...

Greetings from Kyiv and
a rare moment when lights are shining from everywhere.
As it should be.
Generators are resting.

Friday evening.

Sometimes I can’t even imagine how different our lives are – yours and mine.
Perhaps I’ve already forgotten.

Kyiv.
Slowly, without any rush, I’m coming back to life.
Still cold, still with rationed electricity at home, but the heating is better
(more than a thousand high-rise buildings can’t say the same).

Today, I had a warcoffee at a bookstore and bought two books.
Maybe I’ll start reading again.

Greetings from Kyiv.

I hadn’t been to Sophia Square for over a month.
The last time, there was a Christmas tree here.

Standing there today, I felt it deeply:
we survived this winter.
We did it.

People helping people is the resistance. In hard times, we choose care over fear. We lift, share, and stand together. That’s how hope stays alive. That’s how change starts.

An "underage woman" is a 30-year-old trying to run for POTUS but can't because the law says she has to be 35 to qualify.

A "child" is a person under age 18, like the children that Epstein raped and abused, and GOP is now trying to cover up to protect Trump.

Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.
