He comes across as a very decent guy.

Have heard him on the house floor speaking about cybersecurity issues.

I think it was Jim Langevin

Dem. rep from Rhode Island. I believe he's retiring at the end of this term.

I thought Joe had a brief exchange with him, but could be mistaken.

Thank you calimary.

Lots of choke up moments over the past few days. All seems very surreal. Will confess to too much telly, but feel as tho' I have to hear what's happening, especially in the Ukrainian cities. Bless all those who are helping refugees, etc.

John Dean comment

Is a reference to Grasswire2 post re Dean canceling his pre order of Barr's book.

Right. And Bob Woodward.

Trump told him in Feb. of 2020 how serious covid-19 was.
It's airborne, Bob, he said over the phone. And we get to hear this months later when he's pushing his damn book. How many thousands had died by then?
Good on John Dean.

Is this actually true?

Are you counting people born before 1946? I just get tired of the facile boomer bashing. No generation is without fault, but it's disappointing to see such generalizations here. Was it boomers who elected Reagan or a combo of boomers and ww2 generation and those in the middle age wise ? I dunno..
But I guess you think it would best if we all just came to the end of the conveyor belt immediately if not sooner.
Talk to the Ukrainian feisty grandmother of sunflower seed fame.

Sorry, but these are difficult and emotional times. E pluribus unum and we are all part of the pluribus.

This minister appeared just now

during Ali Velshi's 2nd hour of Ukraine coverage.
It was really moving to listen to this man.
Minister's name is Olaksander Tochenko.
