In a tense game of chicken, remarkable for its mix of petulance and audacity, congressional Republicans are threatening to halt U.S. aid to Ukraine—guaranteeing a Russian breakthrough and possible victory in that war—unless Democrats help pass a bill that all but locks down America’s Southern border.
If the impasse isn’t resolved by the end of next week, when Congress goes on recess until the new year, the Ukrainian army could run out of ammunition. President Joe Biden could resupply the arsenal from U.S. stockpiles without legislative approval, but the move would be temporary, and the signal sent—that Ukraine, and by implication other allies, can no longer count on U.S. support in a pinch—could be a holiday cork-popper for Russian President Vladimir Putin and all of our other adversaries.
Throughout history, conservatives have always supported genocide. Harming the vulnerable brings genuine joy to conservatives. You can see this in their movies, comedy and news media. They thrive on the misery of others.
Be careful in your dealings with conservatives. They do not value the lives of others the way a normal person does.
Then why are the Democrats supporting genocide? That ain’t Trump’s state department and UN ambassador vetoing a ceasefire.
The US deputy ambassador, Richard Mills, said the US would not give up on its aim of removing Hamas, explaining America wanted “to break the cycle of unceasing violence so that history does not keep repeating itself”. He said a ceasefire now “would only plant the seeds for the next war because Hamas has no desire to see a durable peace. Our goal should not be to stop the war for today but to stop the war for ever”.
Your comment has nothing to do with the comment you are replying to.
lol you’re all over the board
Au contraire. Judging by the downvotes, I’m exactly where I need to be.
I think they meant that you’re so terminally online I can read a comment and recognize your garbage takes no matter where I go
If my takes are garbage, just ignore them. But you don’t, because they’re not. There’s genocides happening around the world, and you’re complaining about someone being terminally online? SMFH
Republicans are scumbags. If you’re a republican reading this, ask yourself what it is about your brain that makes you support true evil.
Do you feel small inside? Like you didn’t get what you wanted from life, so now others should suffer?
The answer is that conservative thinking is driven by fear. It’s not that liberals don’t fear things, it’s that liberal thinking isn’t driven primarily by fear.
This is a stupid question, but what is connection of fear-based thinking and not surprising Ukraine or supporting Putin?
Eh, I don’t think Ukraine has a chance of winning without foreign troops.
There are a lot of foreign troops volunteering there.
