PARIS — U. S. President Joe Biden on Friday for the first time publicly apologized to Ukraine for a monthslong congressional holdup in American military assistance that let Russia make gains on the battlefield, as Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appealed for bipartisan U. S. support “like it was during World War II.”
Speaking in Paris, a day after they both attended ceremonies marking the 80th anniversary of the D-Day landings in Normandy, Biden apologized to the Ukrainian people for the weeks of not knowing if more assistance would come while conservative Republicans in Congress held up a $61 billion military aid package for Ukraine for six months.

Protesters organized by a Colorado State University group staged a “die-in” demonstration over the weekend outside a Fort Collins company. They chanted, held signs accusing the company of having blood on its hands, and displayed fake body bags and red-stained dolls, according to a report by CSU’s student newspaper.
What was behind the protest?
Demonstrators were motivated by purported connections between the company, Woodward, and a component of a bomb dropped by Israel on a camp in Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip, in late May.
The Denver Post looked into the connections to the Fort Collins-headquartered aerospace and industrial manufacturer.
Eric Swalwell is a master at messaging. At positively messaging Democratic accomplishments, at negatively messaging Republican failures and so much more.
In this video reminds us of so many important things we must do to win the battle of ideas--don't let them silence you, aggressively remind people Trump is a felon, use repetition so people remember, use props to help people understand, make it spicey (Gaetz' alleged "sex trafficking) and make horrible people (Trump, Gaetz, Jordan) the face of the GOP, don't let Republicans ever make a charge without pointing out their hypocrisy (Jim Jordan wanting to subpoena people when he refused his Jan 6th subpoena).
Swalwell also does it with confidence, aggressiveness, ie strength.
