Dear America,
This is the new Acting Secretary of the Navy.
No joke.

My twin sister and I aged out of foster care on the same day at eighteen which sounds like it should mean we had each other and therefore were fine. What it actually means is that two people with nothing faced a system that considers its job complete the moment the clock runs out and wishes you well with the particular indifference of paperwork.
We had a social worker named Miss Charlene who was not assigned to us anymore the day we turned eighteen.
Her caseload moved on and technically so should she have. She did not move on. Showed up at the group home on our birthday with a cake and two folders. Inside each folder was everything she had spent three months quietly assembling. Apartment listings she had called ahead about. Bus routes to the community college. A list of employers who had hired former foster youth and treated them decently. Phone numbers with names attached and notes about who to ask for.
She sat with us for four hours that afternoon going through every page...
Then she wrote her personal cell number on the inside cover of both folders and said use it.
We used it. Many times. More than we probably should have.
She answered every time.
My sister is a registered nurse now.
I run a mentorship program for youth aging out of foster care.
Miss Charlene came to both of our graduations.
Front row.
Same smile both times.

Not enough people are talking about this.
Hungary’s incoming PM has said that Viktor Orbán used Hungarian government funds to help finance CPAC, the flagship networking event for GOP candidates, members of Congress, and conservative media in this country.
Under U.S. law, that is not just a Hungarian problem. Foreign governments are barred from spending money in American elections, and Americans are forbidden from soliciting or accepting it. If these allegations are true, this is a direct attack on the integrity of American democracy.
We need a full investigation by Congress, the FEC, and the DOJ. The American people deserve to know exactly what flowed from Orbán’s government into this country’s political ecosystem, who was on the receiving end, and what it bought.

Je suis boulanger dans un quartier populaire.
Tous les midis, une horde de collégiens débarque pour acheter des sandwichs et des paninis. Ça crie, ça rigole, c'est la jeunesse.
Mais depuis deux mois, j'avais remarqué un petit garçon, toujours en retrait. Pendant que ses copains achetaient des formules à 6 euros, lui commandait invariablement une demi-baguette nature à 60 centimes. C'était son seul repas du midi.
Lundi dernier, j'ai décidé de changer la recette.
Quand il m'a demandé sa demi-baguette, je lui ai tendu un beau sandwich poulet-crudités.
Il a reculé : "Mais monsieur, j'ai que 60 centimes."
J'ai fait un clin d'œil : "C'est le sandwich de la veille, il est un peu écrasé, je ne peux pas le vendre plein tarif. Si tu ne le prends pas pour 60 centimes, je le jette."
Il l'a pris avec un sourire qui m'a fendu le cœur. Depuis, il a son "sandwich de la veille" tous les jours pour 60 centimes.
On ne peut pas sauver le monde, mais on peut s'assurer qu'un gamin de 12 ans ne retourne pas en classe le ventre vide.
Partagez si vous êtes fiers de l'initiative de ce boulanger ! 🥖
