Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

while there is no doubt that edvard beneš is encroaching on german lands, we are deeply concerned that we were not consulted before the events that took place today in the sudetenland and we are investigating whether the reichstag’s authority was exceeded

If you did an obituary on Charlie Kirk that was just quoting directly in context what he was most proud of saying and doing, a lot of editors would say to revise it because it would read as being mean to a dead man
