Sherrod Brown: “The Senator, the presiding officer from Minnesota today…”

“Journalists know they face danger when they report from war zones. They put themselves in harm's way to tell the world the true stories that we need to hear. The Senator, the presiding officer from Minnesota today joined me and dozens and dozens of others and saw the video, pictures, the photos of war in Ukraine shown to us by President Zelensky. And those pictures, many of them were taken by very courageous journalists that risked their own lives. They bring us the unvarnished truth unfiltered by government propaganda at times when we need it most.” (01:21–01:30)
