On Ukraine’s Independence Day, we show our unfaltering support. Today, we approved €6.1 billion for the air and missile defence systems, missiles, ammunition and radars that Ukraine urgently needs. Europe stands with you today, tomorrow, and for as long as it takes. З Днем Незалежності!

Just recalling this passage from the National Security Strategy (Nov 2025)

But the days in which the Middle East dominated American foreign policy in both long-term planning and day-to-day execution are thankfully over—not because the Middle East no longer matters, but because it is no longer the constant irritant, and potential source of imminent catastrophe, that it once was. It is rather emerging as a place of partnership, friendship, and investment—a trend that should be welcomed and encouraged. In fact, President Trump's ability to unite the Arab world at Sharm el-Sheikh in pursuit of peace and normalization will allow the United States to finally prioritize American interests.

To the generation of people that grew up with a cell phone in their hand from day one, no, it is not acceptable to watch tv/listen to music/use speakerphone in a public place without headphones. How this element of social decorum has been eroded escapes me, it’s obvious you heathens.

It’s a day to recognize the service of military veterans, but personally I also think of all the civilians who swore the same oath…”against all enemies, foreign and domestic”…whether it be NatSec, Intel, or regular Cabinet agencies, there are a lot of patriots the citizens should be proud of today.
