@BeschlossDC It was a blast. I was 8yo in DC. We saw the musical 1776 and went to the folklife festival on the Mall. So hot, so fun. I got to make a cornhusk doll, just like a colonial girl would have done. I pet a police horse.
@JenniferJJacobs@ajlamesa I mean, to be fair. Every time I type "German Chancellor" I do still first type "Helmut Kohl" before backspacing. I did that all through Merkel's tenure.
A Russian court has extended #Alsu’s detention for another two months. Today is Alsu’s seventh Friday in prison. She is not a criminal. She shouldn’t be in jail. As an American citizen Alsu must be granted consular access immediately. The “foreign agent” charges against her are absurd and clearly politically motivated.
The U.S. government should designate Alsu “wrongfully detained” and commit to securing her release. Alsu is imprisoned for being an American citizen and a journalist for @RFERL, an editorially independent U.S.-funded news organization.
