Voltaire passed away today in 1778.
There are two quotes of his I always come back to:
"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
and
“Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”
No nation, no society, and no international order can call itself just and humane if it measures its success solely by power or prosperity while neglecting those who live at the margins. Indeed, Christ’s love for the least and the forgotten compels us to reject every form of selfishness that leaves the poor and the vulnerable invisible.
King Charles told a joint session of Congress:
→ NATO was there for America after 9/11
→ British troops fought in Afghanistan
→ Ukraine needs our help now
→ Executive power must have checks and balances
→ The ice caps are melting
→ America’s natural wonders need protecting
He said everything Democrats have been saying for two years.
To a Republican Congress. With a standing ovation. The King of England just out-Americaned America.

#POTUS 🎂🎈
Spread this photo far and wide - because the media isn't doing its job in telling the story about an increasingly unhinged president who is unfit to serve.

Not enough people are talking about this.
Hungary’s incoming PM has said that Viktor Orbán used Hungarian government funds to help finance CPAC, the flagship networking event for GOP candidates, members of Congress, and conservative media in this country.
Under U.S. law, that is not just a Hungarian problem. Foreign governments are barred from spending money in American elections, and Americans are forbidden from soliciting or accepting it. If these allegations are true, this is a direct attack on the integrity of American democracy.
We need a full investigation by Congress, the FEC, and the DOJ. The American people deserve to know exactly what flowed from Orbán’s government into this country’s political ecosystem, who was on the receiving end, and what it bought.

🚨 The numbers are clear: America was better off when President @JoeBiden left office than it is after nearly a year and a half of Trump.
On every major economic indicator, Biden was better. Better economy. Better president. Better man.
What happened in 2024 was one of the biggest self-owns in American history. Completely avoidable. And the people who put us here own it.
@BadgerVideo7 The game was so fun to be at. Stood in a section that had people from the Big 10. It was so fun to tailgate on the golf course! What a blast!
