It’s vital we keep talking about @WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich. His parents are my constituents. Russia is counting on people moving on. We can’t let that happen.

A terrific @WSJ podcast about the mass protests in China, featuring our awesome Beijing-based correspondent @BrianSpegele What a moment this is for so many of us — both professionally and emotionally
"There's people who are willing to…risk everything to be arrested, but then these people have…people willing to get out of bed, to drive down on a highway at 2:30 in the morning to honk their horns in support of these guys."
