“We are the sons and grandsons (or children and grandchildren) of those who reinvented the world.

Europe has never been as rich, as educated, as peaceful, as united, and as strong as it is now.

There is no shortage of money, experience, hands, or brains.

What we need is will”.

The White House claims the vote to rename the Kennedy Center was “unanimous.” That is false. I was muted on the call and denied the opportunity to speak or register my opposition. That is not consensus. That is censorship.
