“I was expressing the moral outrage that I feel, and I make no apologies for it,” President Biden told reporters at the White House yesterday. He was rejecting criticism from all corners about the potential diplomatic consequences of his words in Warsaw. Focus on what PUTIN does.
“People like this shouldn't be ruling countries but they do,” he said at another point. “The fact they do doesn't mean I can't express my outrage about it.”

Cory Booker made #KentanjiBrownJackson cry today as he spoke passionately about racial progress. “You are worthy.” “You faced insults here that were shocking to me. But don’t you worry my sister. Don’t worry. God has got you. How do I know that? Because you’re here.”
“And I know what it’s taken for you to sit in that seat” Booker said. I’m crying, too. For all the truth in the Senator from New Jersey’s speech. Do yourself a favor and watch the 5 minutes from Senator Booker here.
If you really want to go deep, watch the whole 20:09 minutes. I would vote for Cory Booker for anything, but would love to see him in the White House one day.

“Russian forces have come to exterminate us, to kill us. And we can demonstrate that the dignity of our people and our army that we are able to deal a powerful blow, we are able to strike back. But, unfortunately, our dignity is not going to preserve the lives.” Zelenskyy 3/20/22
“If we were a NATO member, a war wouldn't have started. I'd like to receive security guarantees for my country, for my people,” Zelensky told CNN’s Fareed Zakaria on “GPS,” adding that he was grateful for the aid NATO has provided since the invasion began.
