This administration is following an 1800s imperialist playbook, while encouraging Russia and China to do the same. Congress must take action to reel in this rogue regime.

I have so much yarn I inherited from my mom. I'm not sure how good any of it is. Is there any guidelines about what specifically is wanted? I don't want to send a bunch that isn't usable.

Everything moves so fast now. It's impossible to give every event the care and attention it deserves, especially when the bar is "at least no one died."

The "oh they are a minority, they can't do anything" excuse is completely absurd when applies to the United States of America.

Our Senate is one of the most singularly, and infamously, powerful counter-majoritarian bodies on the planet. A single senator can halt all business and force debate!
