The Titanic Memorial in Washington, D.C., honors the men who gave up lifeboats for women and children during the 1912 sinking. Of the 531 women and children on board, 70% were rescued, compared to only 20% of the men. Women led the fundraising and design efforts. The memorial was unveiled in 1931 and moved in 1968 to its current location near Fort McNair.

⚖️🇺🇸DOJ TARGETS 4 MAJOR LAW FIRMS
🔹 Trump admin asks appeals court to restore sanctions on Perkins Coie & others for hiring anti-Trump staff 🚫
🔹 Firms targeted for employing lawyers who worked on Mueller probe & having DEI programs 🏳️🌈
🔹 Sanctions include: No security clearances, banned from federal buildings, contract blacklists ⛔
🔹 DOJ argues president has "absolute right" to decide who gets clearance, ignoring lower courts 👨⚖️
🔹 One firm (Paul Weiss) already pledged $40M in "pro bono" work to escape the wrath 💸
Legal community is shaking. Crossing Trump = losing federal contracts? The message is clear. 😬

ℹ Did you know that USA, EU and its Member States, China, Russia, India, Republic of Korea, Japan, and the Gulf States have something significant in common?
They all use the C5+1 format (Central Asia's five nations + one partner) to deepen engagement with the region! This diplomatic platform is vital for Central Asia's growing geopolitical importance and its commitment to diverse partnerships.
This multi-vector strategy ensures that Central Asian countries (Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) maintain productive dialogues across the globe.
The nearest high-level summit in this format is the C5+1 Presidential Summit, set to take place in Washington, D.C., on November 6, 2025.
This gathering marks the 10th anniversary of the platform!
