"Toby, if we start pulling strings like this, you don't think every homeless veteran would come out of the woodwork?"
"I can only hope, sir."
Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄
Carol of the Bells in Kyiv subway.
Voices of the Embassies of Germany, France, and the United Kingdom came together to perform Shchedryk in the Kyiv metro as a sign of solidarity with Ukraine.
Thankful to everyone who stands with us!
Our thoughts are with all our friends around the world who were affected by community violence this weekend. You are not alone.
When little ones hear about violent events on the news, it can be hard to help them understand and cope with what happened. Limiting media exposure and making space for them to express big feelings can help children feel safer and more secure.

PSA to all the HR fans that are scared about getting into hockey because there’s so many rules, you don’t have to learn the rules. As long as you know that the puck has to go in the net, you’re all set. I’ve been here for two years and barely even know what defenseman do
ICE just conducted a raid by Taco Giro in Tucson - a small mom-and-pop restaurant that has served our community for years.
When I presented myself as a Member of Congress asking for more information, I was pushed-aside and pepper sprayed.
When I was 22 years old, I commissioned as an Ensign in the United States Navy and swore an oath to the Constitution. I upheld that oath through flight school, multiple deployments on the USS Midway, 39 combat missions in Operation Desert Storm, test pilot school, four space shuttle flights at NASA, and every day since I retired – which I did after my wife Gabby was shot in the head while serving her constituents.
In combat, I had a missile blow up next to my jet and flew through anti-aircraft fire to drop bombs on enemy targets. At NASA, I launched on a rocket, commanded the space shuttle, and was part of the recovery mission that brought home the bodies of my astronaut classmates who died on Columbia. I did all of this in service to this country that I love and has given me so much.
Secretary Hegseth’s tweet is the first I heard of this. I also saw the President’s posts saying I should be arrested, hanged, and put to death.
If this is meant to intimidate me and other members of Congress from doing our jobs and holding this administration accountable, it won’t work. I’ve given too much to this country to be silenced by bullies who care more about their own power than protecting the Constitution.
This is shameful, and I urge the Trump Administration to immediately reverse this decision. We need all eyes on missing and murdered Native American women and girls and their stories. https://t.co/ztma2PYYKD
“We don’t take an oath to a country”
“We don’t take an oath to a King”
“We don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator”
“We don’t take an oath to an individual”….
“We take an oath to the Constitution”
“We take an oath to the idea that is America, and we’re willing to die to protect it”
