When Ted Turner asked Carl Sagan whether he was a socialist, Sagan offered an answer that captures the true meaning of a civilized society.

Hey @Grok, concise, no spin. Of the MILLIONS of Americans projected to lose Medicaid coverage under Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill, how many are UNDOCUMENTED IMMIGRANTS? Start with the number.

V Praze přivítáme top představitele Evropské kosmické agentury, francouzské kosmické agentury CNES a americké společnosti Vast, které se spolu s ČR podílejí na přípravách národní mise na Mezinárodní kosmickou stanici!

Mise na ISS otevírá obrovské příležitosti pro českou vědu, instituce a firmy. Zjistěte víc na letošní konferenci Space2Business v rámci Czech Space Weeku 2026!

I'm an American, a U.S. Army veteran, and I live in Europe. And I'll tell you something that might upset a few people back home. I want my fellow Americans to enjoy the same rights, freedoms, and quality of life that millions of Europeans already enjoy. I want Americans to have access to affordable healthcare without worrying about going bankrupt because they got sick. I want American students to pursue higher education without burying themselves in decades of debt. I want Americans to enjoy stronger digital privacy laws, meaningful consumer protections, paid parental leave, and guaranteed paid vacation. I want police officers held to rigorous standards of accountability, where de-escalation is emphasized and deadly force is genuinely a last resort. I want Americans to understand that freedom isn't just about what the government cannot do to you. It's also about having the security and opportunity to actually enjoy your life. And before someone starts screaming about socialism, understand something. European countries are capitalist democracies. They have private businesses, entrepreneurs, private property, competitive markets, and individual liberties. They've simply made different decisions about what protections their citizens should enjoy. Europe isn't perfect. No place is. But pretending America has nothing to learn from other democracies is ridiculous. I served my country. I love my country. And I don't believe patriotism requires pretending that America is the best at everything. In fact, I believe the exact opposite. Real patriotism means wanting your country to improve, even when that means admitting another country does something better. I don't want Americans to have fewer freedoms. I want them to have MORE. More protections. More opportunities. More security. More accountability. More freedom to live their lives without being financially destroyed by illness, education, or circumstances beyond their control. And having lived on both sides of the Atlantic, I know that much of this is possible. We should stop asking why Americans can't have these things and start asking why they're expected to settle for less.

Our hearts are with the Wainwright families.

CBO projects the One Big Beautiful Bill Act's Medicaid provisions will result in 7.5 million more people uninsured by 2034. Work requirements for expansion adults (the largest driver, ~5.3 million) and related changes take effect starting January 2027, after the midterms. Immigrant eligibility limits began October 2026.

“we will pay any price….to assure the success and survival of liberty.” Is this still true? Do we prize liberty or do we prize power and purse? No more clear test than the choice between Ukraine and Russia. Abandon Ukraine and we abandon liberty. Eventually even our own.
