Hey @joeroganhq @joerogan: You like inspiring stories of people doing the most excellent things. Would you ever consider listening to a few voices of Ukrainians who continue to excel, even as Russia hits the hell out of them with North Korean missiles and Iranian drones?
Why not talk with @Klitschko -- or @Stako_tennis , who now fights in the trenches but who once defeated @rogerfederer at Wimbledon? Or the how about the warrior Gandalf, @Samoilenko_I?
In Ukraine, you must might find your best allies for freedom against deep state corruption!
WATCH -- โคต๏ธ
Klitschko@Klitschko
. @joerogan , I disagree

I have a confession and a plea to folks who are flirting with voting Jill Stein.
When I was a 20 year old college student in 2000, I voted for Ralph Nader instead of Al Gore. I loved the progressive message Nader offered, and Bush and Gore seemed kinda the same to someone who was paying peripheral attention.
I've regretted that vote for my entire adult life.
Ultimately, George Bush won by a margin of 500+ votes in the state of Florida over Gore. And that was the ballgame. Ralph Nader peeled 97,000+ votes away from Gore. If only 600 of those 90,000 had voted for the major party candidate that more aligned with their values, things would have been very different.
When I was in my senior year of college, 9/11 happened. The country and western world rallied around Bush's resolute response to the traumatizing terror attacks. I was in NY at the time, and it was a terrifying moment for the nation.
But the consequences of Bush being in office at that moment were immense.
Bush's disdain for his dad's nemesis, Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, led him to invent a rationale to invade a country that literally had nothing to do with 9/11. End result? He killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqi people, thousands of American troops, and spent over a trillion dollars of taxpayer money in the process.
Beyond the completely immoral and indefensible Iraq War, Bush was a complete disaster as a president. His "No Child Left Behind" effort turned public schools into standardized testing centers. He tripled down on fossil fuels and ignored climate change. His tax cuts for the rich helped contribute to the 2008 economic downturn that led to the Great Recession.
He was a terrible president.
In an alternate reality, Al Gore would have been president in 2001 when terrorists attacked America. Would he have gone into Iraq? Absolutely not. Would he have ignored global warming? 100% no! Gore was perhaps the preeminent proponent of fighting climate change at that time. Would he have passed massive tax cuts for the wealthy? No way.
This is a sliding doors scenario. What would have happened? We can't be sure. But one thing is for sure: those votes for Ralph Nader (in Florida in particular) were EXCEPTIONALLY consequential for the lives of millions around the world. Gore would have offered a more forward-facing, environmentally conscious & peaceful presidency that wasn't so rooted in grievance and privilege.
My point is:
Either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will win the election. That is a fact. You might feel the need to submit a "protest vote" as I did in 2000.
Just be ready to wear it when Donald Trump wins, strips away reproductive rights from all Americans, implements an economy-destroying tariff, dismantles the entire federal government, eliminates the Department of Education, prosecutes his perceived enemies, and devolves America into chaos.
There are no perfect choices. But rest assured, there are only two.
Trust me - I've been wearing my vote for a quarter century.

๐ Louisiana Black Voter Turnout Update ๐
We need 365,006 Black voters to show up, minimum, to catch up to our 2020 numbers. In 2020, we showed up with 609,080 Black voters in Louisiana. Right now, weโre at 244,074 โ thatโs a 16% drop in early voting from last time. But letโs ask ourselves, is just matching 2020 enough?
With 697,926 Black voters still registered but yet to cast their ballots, we need a strong turnout to meet โ and exceed โ our 2020 numbers. Louisiana Black voters, we have 6 days left until the election. Letโs push these numbers up every single day.
Tonight, text 10 people. DM this post to 10 more. If you follow and support me, letโs do some digital civic engagement together. It wonโt take 10 minutes to reach out to 10 people. Use #GVote10 so we can keep each other motivated over the next 6 days.
Talk trash, or talk tangible change. Your choice. ๐ณ๏ธ๐ช๐พ

Hey, @fordnation:
My household pays your government a ridiculous amount of $ each year in tax.
What I expect for that is a robust health care system, strong social services & great schools.
A $200 payment cannot undo the damage you've done to core services.๐

The Conservative Party has again voted against the Canada-Ukraine Free Trade agreement in the House of Commons, despite calls from the Ukrainian Canadian Congress to vote in favour of the deal.
The Liberals, NDP, Bloc and Green Party all voted in favour #cdnpoli
