Thanks for explanation — We were puzzled by the blue jerseys yesterday !! Our grandson was pushing hard for Sox victory.

She is the most underrated leader in Europe. Maia Sandu, President of Moldova, is fighting Russian hybrid war every single day. She is trying to bring her country closer to Europe and to deliver peace, prosperity, and freedom to her people. 🇲🇩🇪🇺

Always listen to Ambassador Taylor!
TAYLOR: Ukraine is winning this war right now. Ukraine is actually taking back more territory, shooting deep into Russia, shooting at St. Petersburg when Putin is there, sending a clear message that they can go deep, all the way to Ural Mountains. Ukrainians have the initiative.

Wow. Putin is looking weaker by the day.
BREAKING: Russia has canceled its annual Russia Day concert on Red Square in Moscow for the first time in 23 years. Putin is not expected to appear or deliver a speech. Russian media report security concerns and fears of potential strikes. 👀

Important message from @AmbBridgetBrink — we need her in DC now more than ever to push back against the horror story in the @WhiteHouse
Matt Maasdam lied about his record of outsourcing American jobs & manufacturing, now he's lying about me. My entire career I've faced threats & disinformation campaigns, and led under fire from Putin’s missiles and drones. His lies & negative attacks don’t scare me. The truth: I'm the only one who's taken on Trump and held his Administration accountable, and that's what I'll do in Congress. I led in a war zone, political games don't scare me, and I'll never back down. Join us BridgetBrink.com

.@tombarrettmi7 promised to “rein in inflation once and for all." Now inflation is at a 3-year high, and he continues to vote 100% for Trump's disastrous economic agenda. Working families are paying the price every day. Mid-Michigan can't afford Tom Barrett.

So honored to have the support of Grand Ledge City Council Member Brett Gillespie. Council Member Gillespie has been a champion for Grand Ledge, fighting for infrastructure, families, and more. I look forward to working with him to flip MI-07 & deliver for mid-Michigan.

I'm the granddaughter of an autoworker and third generation union member — it matters that we create American jobs and make American products. But when Matt Maasdam and Tom Barrett had the chance, they supported manufacturing in Guatemala, Haiti, and China, and lied about it. That's not the Michigan way. bridgetbrink.com/news/matt-m…

Nikol Pashinyan wins. Armenia has chosen continuity and confirmed its pro-European direction. An important signal that the future of the region is still being written.
