2022 'Profile in Courage' recipients include Ukraine President; republican Liz Cheney
Liz Cheney
The Republican congresswoman from Wyoming has suffered professional consequences for voting to impeach former President Donald Trump for inciting the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. She was stripped of her leadership position in the GOP caucus merely for condemning the false claim by Trump that alleges the 2020 election was stolen.
She also is one of two Republican members of the Select Committee investigating the Jan. 6 insurrection.

"There is no more important issue facing our country — and the world — today than the fight for democracy. Today’s honorees put their careers and lives on the line to protect democratic principles and the integrity of our elections. Their service and courage inspire us all,” - Caroline Kennedy, JFK's daughter and the honorary president of the John F. Kennedy Library Foundation..
Last year’s recipient was Republican Sen. Mitt Romney, who was the only Republican to vote to CONVICT Trump during his **first** impeachment trial in 2020.
Kudos to Romney last year and the new recipients this year for their courage.
Kudos also to Caroline Kennedy for a perfect statement.

President Vladimir Putin said Monday that the Russian economy is "withstanding the impact of sanctions" despite a very gloomy economic outlook for the country following the Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine.
However, Russia's Central Bank said in late April the Russian economy is expected to shrink by 8 to 10% in 2022, noting a decline in economic activity in March after the imposition of international sanctions on Russia.
Earlier the same month, the World Bank predicted that Russian GDP would shrink by 11.2% in 2022.

Welp, it certainly could be good news, but realistically only if the left actually provides a net sum greater good than the right did. If they fail then they are really no better. The proof comes in the pudding.
That said, it is what the voters wanted, so that in itself is a positive thing.

For Russia, a deep recession is coming this year. The International Monetary Fund expects Russian GDP to contract by 8.5%, as a consequence of the harsh Western sanctions imposed on Moscow.

Stores have too much stuff. Get ready for discounts!
New York (CNN Business) Some welcome news for shoppers getting squeezed by inflation: promotions on televisions, furniture, clothing, sporting goods and other big-ticket purchases are ramping up. Target (TGT), Walmart (WMT), Best Buy (BBY), Urban Outfitters (URBN) and other top retailers have said in recent weeks that they are sitting on too much inventory for some of their products. As a result, they plan to mark down prices and step up sales on those items to clear the glut.
It marks a major reversal from much of 2021, when discounts on big-ticket items were scarce for consumers. Last year, big chains dialed back on promotions because products were in tight supply due to production bottlenecks and slowdowns at key global ports.

I hate to see the innocent citizens of Russia get hurt like that. Many don't agree with Putin's war, yet they will be affected.

Clearly! Biden should be impeached for secretively sneaking into that plant in a cat-burglar suit and planting dangerous bacteria.

Elon Musk announced he will walk away from his tumultuous $44 billion offer to buy Twitter, leaving the deal on the verge of collapse. The Tesla CEO sent a letter to Twitter's board Friday saying he is terminating the acquisition.

Twitter still wants the deal and will turn to the courts. But at least for now, Trump won't have this bullhorn to incite a civil war, and his own platform which he called "troath sintial" is underwhelming to say the least.
