Shout out to Steve Herman using #Mastodon to post in real time about #PresidentZelenskyy's visit to the #WhiteHouse. He captured the moment Zelenskyy presented a battle flag from #Ukrainian heroes to Congress, and
in exchange was presented with an American flag that was flown over the Capitol in his honor. See Steve's coverage from yesterday here https://journa.host/@w7voa/109554636787170862

Weโ€™re not against Christians, we're against Christian Nationalism. We're not fighting men, weโ€™re fighting patriarchy. The target is not white people, it's white supremacy. We don't oppose heterosexuals, just homophobia. Join the work dismantling oppressive systems.

Any pundit who is criticizing Pres. Zelenskyy's attire is failing to read the room, but moreover, they're just completely missing the point.

A country and its leader under immediate and existential threats have no time for suits and neckties.

He has no visible rank or medals or nametapes or epaulets or brass buttons or starched creases. He's wearing what women and men who are fighting on the frontlines in Ukraine are wearing.

He's wearing the urgency of the moment.

That's the point.

This evening, President Zelensky addressed a joint session of Congress. His speech was powerful. Such a great picture from Bloomberg/Getty Images.
This says it all
This is a "right of passage" thing if you attend the University of Alaska in Fairbanks. Of course, they are young, but no way in hell would I do this at any age! LOL!
