    I see lots of generic praise by Republicans for law enforcement officers, as we begin National Police Week. For some reason I don't see as many specific tributes to Aaron Salter Jr., the ex-policeman security guard who died heroically trying to stop the Buffalo shooter Saturday.

    A joint phone call with and Magdalena Andersson. We shared a deep concern over Russia's war on Ukraine. I went through Finland’s next steps towards NATO membership. Finland deeply appreciates all the necessary support from the US.

    NEW: President Biden just warned that if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, they won’t stop there: “The opinion basically says there’s no such thing as the right to privacy. If that holds, mark my words: They are going to go after same-sex marriage [and contraception].”

    I would say that every journalist, Ukrainian or foreign, who was covering the battle of Kyiv, has deserved this. The free press has demonstrated its true value and significance as it unveiled the massacre of Bucha and let the world see the truth.
