Did anyone else catch this disturbing bit of (taxpayer funded) propaganda on TV the other night?

We have a new gov't website: #WarDotGov.

It's worth noting, there is no "Peace,gov" or even a "PeaceCorps,gov".

Brought to you by the guy who can't understand why he hasn't received the #NPP. 😡

What do you do when your Olympic dream is put on hold? In Goodbye Demons, skater Angie Fernández Parnell joins the Peace Corps in Tunis and learns how hard it is to turn good intentions into real help. A novel of courage, love, and limits. buff.ly/ygF1Zds #BookSky #PeaceCorps #Fiction

Cities gone. Ghost towns.The sad results of Putin's genocidal war against Ukr, their communities, schools, cultural icons,the beauty of the environment.🌻The lovely far-eastern village I served w/PeaceCorps occupied by RU. Friends suffering. A war for no reason but 1 man's revanchist obsession. 🇺🇦
Kramatorsk today. Empty streets, closed stores, burnt apartments. It is slowly turning into a ghost town, just one more among so many destroyed by russia.

Yes and Kennedy along with Truman on ideas on Civil Rights started the South turning into Republicans from Democrats. Along with Kennedy's space race and PeaceCorps for exploration.

Peter arrived in rural #Nepal expecting to teach. He ended up teaching, fixing a computer lab, building a Nepali vocabulary quiz, and learning how to communicate without even saying a word.

#PeaceCorps service rarely goes exactly as planned.

Jack’s #PeaceCorps service in #Senegal included monitoring sea turtles, teaching environmental education, and helping restore traditional Senegalese sailboats.

Sometimes the work is simply sitting with your community, drinking tea, and building relationships.

Thanks Sen. Brian Fitzpatrick(R,PA) for leading a bipartisan effort in Congress to block traitor tRUmp's outrageous diesel deal w/Russia. So upsetting the US is funding Putin's vicious war. The village I served w/PeaceCorps is occupied, friends suffering. Stand wUKR. 🇺🇦 www.rferl.org/a/congress-l...

@ryannorth.ca is doing such great work on #FantasticFour; it's cool that this #SwampThing story finally made it to print, but it sure makes me wonder what would have happened if it had been published back in 1989; a fictional story about real events, featuring a #PeaceCorps was interesting.

🌴 Forget the packing rules. Carly's advice? Bring the flip-flops. 😄

She also recommends a headlamp, a portable fan, and Spanish books if you're headed to the Dominican Republic as a Peace Corps volunteer.

Daniel teaches math and physics in rural #Kenya, but some of his biggest impact happens outside class. He helped create a science lab, started chess and coding clubs, and coaches volleyball. 🇰🇪📚

Samuel’s #PeaceCorps service in #Togo took him from caring for chickens to teaching kindergarteners, working in fields, and playing soccer with local kids. 🐔📚⚽

His biggest lesson: stay flexible. Plans change. Learning opportunities don’t.

One year, Shay’s village in Nepal faced drought and water conservation concerns. The next, heavy rains brought erosion.
As an Environment volunteer, she’s learned to stay flexible and adapt her work to what her community needs. 🌱

A typhoon destroyed Ashlin’s school ecobrick project in the #Philippines. Then students kept making ecobricks without being asked.

The final tally: 700+ ecobricks, 90 volunteers, and 4 benches. ♻️🇵🇭

A great lesson in what community ownership.

One of Walker Heard’s biggest #PeaceCorps lessons in #Tonga came from a water shortage. 💧

A village thought it needed pumps. Walker’s survey showed that leaking pipes were the problem.

Sometimes development starts with better questions—and better data.

NY Post sez Hannah Gann was in the Peace Corps. Found this Reddit about how to readjust to life after returning and most people said therapy.

My question is what did she say on her application where the Peace Corps thought it was a good idea to send her overseas.

Rachel’s #PeaceCorps service takes her from reef monitoring dives to jeepney rides through Cebu City. 🌊🤿🇵🇭

She helped survey reefs across six municipalities and later wrote a 100-page report based on decades of reef data.

🇬🇹 Peyton’s advice after serving as a #PeaceCorps #YouthDevelopment volunteer in #Guatemala: don’t be afraid to look a little silly in front of your students. That’s often when the best connections happen. ❤️

🏔️ Enrique’s #PeaceCorps service in North Macedonia included learning 2 languages, organizing a summer camp, and helping launch a shepherding cooperative’s 1st food market. His biggest lesson? “1 year is just a visit. 2 years is what turns a place into a home”

Brendan serves in two Costa Rican schools, where his students often know him as the PE teacher. But his #YouthDevelopment work also includes life-skills workshops, youth clubs, and community service projects. ⚽🇨🇷
