The US currently spends 00.6% of our federal budget on foreign aid. We can do more to help end extreme poverty and disease. Thatโs why I just emailed Congress about increasing foreign assistance funding in FYโ25. Join me! https://t.co/DVHZNJx1Xc
@StaceySmithCCC The Russian people are also victims of Putin. I pray Russian soldiers won't be killed in Ukraine--most of them have no desire to fight in this war. But the one way the war ends without massive loss of life and the destruction of Ukraine is for the Russian people to depose Putin.
@ErinBurnett Erin, thank you for reporting from Ukraine. You and CNN have opened the world's eyes. Thank you for the personal risks you took and for the emotional investment you made. You've done high impact journalism in Ukraine and since you got back. We're grateful.
โIf Russia lays down its weapons, there is no war. If Ukraine lays down its weapons, there is no Ukraine.โ

@Brian_Lightsey@pastordmack Brian, listen to yourself. You are right about JM needing to repent. But you have also demonstrated the one remaining acceptable prejudice--ageism. If you had generalized about blacks the way you did about elderly, you could lose your job.
Disappointed that the University of Cincinnati was a 36 point favorite today. Alabama and Notre Dame schedule cupcakes, but I want higher standards from my local U.
So I'm desperate for football, but not desperate enough to watch UConn-Fresno St. Or a Texas high school game on ESPN. Or an NFL exhibition (excuse me, "pre-season") game. One more week in sports purgatory till college is back, and then real life returns--the NFL. Bring it on!
