Ten years ago today. In just the last few days: Trump made a deal for the U.S. to buy Russian diesel, an economic lifeline for Putin; he and Elon Musk blamed each other for an order that slowed down Starlink satellite connectivity over Ukraine, hampering the country's defenses during a devastating Russian attack; and Trump waived sanctions on Russia that Congress, led by his late friend Lindsey Graham, had pushed for. Now, Putin has proposed a summit with Trump and Xi to decide Ukraine’s fate for them, bulldoze a century of international cooperation, and frame Russia as an equal to the U.S. and China. We’ll see if Putin’s puppet continues to dance on his strings.

An update from me...

25 years later, we still pause, reflect, and honor the lives lost, the heroes who ran toward danger, and the resilience of our nation. Join us this Friday as we gather to honor their memory and ensure we never forget. #NeverForget #911Anniversary

They don’t realize it yet, but they’ve just captured one of the best moments of their lives. 👍
