It’s crazy that 33 Democrats voted AGAINST aid for Israel, but all we seem to hear about around here is how some Republicans voted against the Ukraine bill…
It’s very odd that you seem to agree with every Republican stance. Have you ever thought for yourself?
Actually I don’t agree with every Republican stance. I support gay rights, I’m pro-choice (the whole abortion thing with Republicans is my biggest gripe), and I don’t think religion should be forced in schools. I’m actually atheist myself. However, as I get older, I’m finding myself agreeing much more with conservative politics. I lean Right, but I’m registered independent. I was told I “must” be a democrat my whole life, because I’m Mexican. I remember at a young age being taught in public schools in Southern California that “minorities must vote democrat.” It wasn’t until I got older I realized the propaganda that the Left spewed. They told me I was never good enough to vote any other way, but Democrat. So yea, I have a chip on my shoulder now that I’m older and can think more for myself. Democrat policies, politicians, and the Left have always treated me as a “victim” and instilled in my mind that Republicans are bad, and it’s THEIR fault my family is poor. Fuck that…it’s all lies.
Republicans are bad
Why is that crazy?
Funding a genocide is bad, actually.
Democrats vote for or against things all the time, whereas modern-day Republicans vote almost invariably in total lock-step (like literally 100% of them.) It’s very weird. They have a whole little proto-Russia going on where everyone always agrees with the leader no matter what; it actually is sort of newsworthy at this point when some Republicans cross the aisle.
It’s crazy how you’re too dumb to see the difference between Ukraine and Israel, and I say that as someone of Jewish descent with a shitload of Jewish friends and family, as well as a veteran.
The people outright killing civilians are always the bad guys, sure collateral damage happens, but this ain’t it, this is the same shit that Ruzzia does where they purposely depopulate areas with the purpose of moving some of their people into those depopulated areas to lay claim to it, while literally squatting in some poor executed family’s home. This is trash human behavior.
No, it’s not crazy at all.
Oh so now Mitch is back to criticizing trump again? What did Mitch get rebooted again and forget endorsing him a few weeks ago?
I have one guess. There’s absolutely 0 evidence for it so maybe I am just fooling myself that it is plausible when it isn’t.
But, a bunch of people have been suddenly turning anti-Russia recently who were previously very cool with it. Something changed. My unfounded theory is, more criminal charges are coming for people who have been agent-ing for Russia, and McConnell and the other lawful evils are trying to just emphasize that they’re nowhere near those charges, no how sir.
With the Europeans dismantling a propaganda and bribe network Europe-wide, the Germans catching their far-right taking money directly from Russia, I suspect they’re hedging their bets.
The wind is shifting, that’s for sure.
Most of the money goes to US weapons manufacturers. The weapons manufacturers are very big political donors.
You can create all the hoo har you want, to “energise your base”, but when to music stops and it’s time to vote , you do as you are told and get that public money into hands of the defence contractors as quickly as you can.
MTG found this out yesterday when she was publicly called an idiot : unhinged rant about Jewish space lasers ? No problemo. Put $90bn of weapons money at risk ? You’re a lunatic.
One can dream I suppose.
Probably I am dreaming yes
But, a bunch of people have been suddenly turning anti-Russia recently
Did the Russian checks start bouncing?
I mean, honestly? That might be another explanation. Some combination of sanctions, effective counterintelligence, or “Ukraine is getting their weapons so what the hell are we paying you for” blocking the payments.
Russia’s not running out of money any time soon (not on the scale of the laughably small amounts that it takes to corrupt people in the US government), but there are other reasons why people might not be getting their checks anymore. And Rand Paul is still going strong, where he’s one of the people who’s just motivated by some absolutely cockeyed internal compass that gravitates unerringly to the wrong answer on absolutely everything, so that would track, too.
Such a beautiful description of Rand Paul.
Its like he knows the rught way but will not act that way unless paid to.
Very liberdashian.
EU seized the money so the bribes are drying up.
Latest check hasn’t cleared yet. Give it a week and he’ll have flopped again.
I blame McConnell for Carlson and trump
“The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.”
How do you do, fellow non traitors
Boy I sure am upset about all the traitoring around here, how dare they, amirite?
great so two people who are not currently in government have more pull than the whole of Congress. ffs I hate it here
Kind of lacks the nuance of a House of 435 Representatives and Senate of 100 who write, amend, vote, rewrite, vote again, discuss, and vote a third time with a majority or sometimes even a 2/3rd majority in order to pass laws. All of this in one of the most politically polarized times in history.
You don’t need to have more sway than the whole of congress. You just need to convince like 80 people and then nothing will ever get done again.
“just”? Oh, well, when you put it like that.
Then maybe you should have convicted him when he was impeached the first time?
Or the second
McConnell is the expert on delaying things, he would know.
Moscow Mitch blaming everyone but himself
There was also this guy named Mitch McConnel involved.
That guy that endorsed Trump? Not me. That was Rich McConnell.
“Mitch McConnell? No. No. No. You got it all wrong. I’m Bitch McConnell”
Did mitch forget who he is? Or is this a new bug in his reboot. The guy spent 4th of July in Moscow, he created tucker and Trump and has ruled the gop for decades
why do two people that are not in government have anything to do with this, and if they are give advice it should be declared that they are lobbyists for these things.
Pot calls out kettle.
FOAD, traitor.
FuckConnell says what?
