Russian missile blew up our @WCKitchen food train in Eastern Ukraine… Nobody hurt thankfully…but they are now hitting train infrastructure hard! Only 1 wagon of food fully lost, will save the rest! This won’t stop us—our amazing Ukrainian WCK teams will keep feeding the people!
From day one, Michelle Rose has been a trusted advisor and strong leader as Acting Assistant Secretary for Congressional & Intergovernmental Affairs. As a former Mayor, I'm thrilled she is bringing her expertise to drive change at a local level. We are grateful for her service.
In his NRA speech, Donald Trump cites "broken families" as a cause of mass shootings, "because no law can cure the effects of a broken home," he says.
He's been divorced twice.
