@amerigir12@1Andrew_J@MollyJongFast We gave them security assurances in 1994 and so they gave up their nukes. And here we are. By "economic partnership" you mean DT keeping them out of the room, taking away their mineral rights, and canceling the USAID partnership to restore Ukraine infrastructure.
@RobynDODonnell@EmmanuelMacron I'm part of We the American people, and I think you, Trump, and MAGA are full of shit. If you don't think Putin could ever turn on the US, I have a bridge to sell you.
@bb_referee@RobynDODonnell@EmmanuelMacron And who do you think his followers learned it from? DT - someone who doesn't understand a goddamned thing about foreign relations or geopolitics.
@PeterStefanovi2 American here. Trump should definitely go. Then they should do something like snub him publicly or turn their backs on him or call him a wanker. Also, have a press event where they talk over him as he tried to do to Macron and Zelenskyy.
@fadaddy26@McFaul@SecRubio You mean the part where Ukraine in 1994 actually gave up 1,700 nukes to the USSR because we gave Ukraine security guarantees? That part?
Yeah, I got it. We reneged on our guarantee, and other nations cannot trust us.
@WardBrend50872@kaitlancollins What happened was that 47 & Putin worked out a deal ceding Ukraine's assets w/o Ukraine having any say in the matter.
@WardBrend50872@kaitlancollins No, what happened was that US gave Ukraine explicit security guarantees in 1994 in exch. for Ukr giving Russia 1,700 nukes that were on their territory when the Soviet Union collapsed. If Ukr hadn't trusted us & disarmed based on our guarantees, they wouldn't be at war now.
@csnook211 @HeartlandSignal Why? As someone who lives in IN, this state ranks lower than IL in most quality-of-life indicators. Our politics, and way too many of our IN citizens, vote red. We're a bass-ackward state.
@csherbak@lcdail_reed@eclecticbrotha Chicago-area Repubs are moving across the border to NW Indiana. We’ve been traditionally blue here but it’s getting redder by the day. In the county next to mine, all the Dems lost. :(
@PinkFreudHokie@eclecticbrotha Porter County, IN ran some great Dem candidates. THEY ALL LOST. Porter also voted against their Dem Congressman. Luckily, Lake & LaPorte cos still gave him a W.
@NaughtyAgatha45 @schoolhousemod@YNB We asked Black women to let us into their tent. Against their better judgment, they took a chance on us.
And we failed them. Again.
They’re done. As one Black woman put it, “Time for America to hold its own bag.”
Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) accepts the "happy warrior" title and dares Donald Trump or anyone to try and take away the state's freedoms.
"A happy warrior is still a warrior. You come for my people, you come through me."
