If you weren't moved by that speech, you are not really an American.

You really aren't.

Best thing I've heard all year...

Thank you, President Zelenskyy, for your words and emotion - it has not fallen on deaf ears.

#zelenskyy

This is *not* to suggest America's involvement or place is not important; Indeed Zelenskyy himself really mentioned America's stature in ways that felt genuine and true towards our history and what good this country has done.

But it is to point out that, right now, Ukraine is the bulwark against the biggest threat of our moment.

And as such, we must make sure they do continue to stand.

It's been a long day, and a historic evening.

Time to start retiring for me I think.

Thanks to all who followed along with the transcript, and may we all hope for Ukraine's "Absolute Victory"!

He was at the front line yesterday with ordinance dropping around him. I love he’s in military garb.

That shit is real over there.

Volodymyr Zelensky to visit US in first overseas visit

That’s a wow 🇺🇦🇺🇸

So all the times Trump said his taxes were under audit, they weren't. (No surprise.)

In fact they were never under audit until Ds took the House and started asking questions. Even though an audit was legally required.

The Greene-Boebert fight should make for loud cackling.
