I have always, and will continue, to stand with the Ukrainian people and unequivocally condemn Putin’s illegal and brutal invasion. I voted against the Ukraine Support Act because of its inclusion of broad economic sanctions. Time and again, sanctions like these fail to achieve their stated goals while inflicting real suffering on ordinary people. Opposing Russian aggression does not require us to support policies that punish ordinary civilians who did not ask for this war.
The foreign policy establishment continues to return to the same failed playbook and expects different results. Economic sanctions fail to achieve their desired goals and in most cases are counterproductive to ending war.
I remain committed to supporting diplomacy, peace, and justice for the Ukrainian people affected by this horrific conflict. But I could not in good conscience support legislation that wages economic warfare on innocent civilians.

Endless wars are stupid, especially ones that nobody wants and have never been explained.
Americans are exhausted.
AI is like my new best friend that also might be trying to take my job, my ability to think for myself, and my humanity in the process. Yo like I love you, but WTF, but I still love you.
Diversity is actually awesome! The opposite is boring AF.
Canadians are super fucking cool.
Mexicans are chill.
Putin isn’t a good guy looking out for America’s best interest. Rocky IV and Miracle are great movies.
Good neighbors are a blessing.
Freedom of religion and coexistence without having to blow each other up is probably a good idea.
We all question, are we alone in the universe?
We all fuck up along the way.
Epstein didn’t hang himself.
The Trumps and Epstein were best friends for decades. It’s like Bert trying to tell us Ernie was just an acquaintance in the same social scene on Sesame Street back in the day.
The Cowboys suck. Go Birds!
Things we’re told to fight about:
Me.

That’s the joke.
@Axerixing Liberals supporting the shah, classic, her family was literally killed by the islamists fuckhead, they just wanted the shah gone, is it her fault the revolution in Iran was hijacked?
@Intarabus333 Saxony, Bavaria, Venice, Castile, Wallachia, all of these are thousand year old political entities that came to an end with the age of nationalism, Luxembourg survived because the Dutch kings got lucky in the treaty of London and the everyone forgot it existed
Genuine question, what has king done to make himself almost as loved as Obama, I feel like I know nothing about him other than that he’s the other indy Dem
people hated on this so fucking much without even watching the movie and realizing this is a scene that symbolizes her being able to recover after attempting suicide.
The Cumans had insane drip. Their khaganate was destroyed by the Mongols. Most Cumans went west where they were in the armies of Hungary, Poland and Bohemia during the wars of the 14th and 15th centuries. Cumans were either Sunni Muslim or Tengrist but most became Catholic
