Even before the first shots were fired in the Ukraine invasion, I have been highly complimentary on the way that Biden has run rings around Putin. He lectured him, he warned him, and he declassified classified documents to show...
There truly is a video or a tweet for every occasion. Twitter didn't exist in 1963 but C-Span did and this is from their archives. If Dr. King were alive today he could be saying these exact same words...

I ain't as young as I used to be, or as quick, and so I had to take a little time to make sure I had this right before I wrote it up. But I double checked the video,...
