@peeved1 @FrannieBlock @TheFP Hey, pal, international students contributed 44bn to the GDP last year.

Whatever funding they receive is worth it just for that.

The end goal isn't about funding, anyway. It is about cultural exchange and spreading U.S. values through education. Something without a price tag.

@SecRubio @POTUS I'll leave this here...

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@elonmusk This is ridiculous, a mischaracterization of the truth, and patently false.

USAID is our main soft power tool. Shutting it off shows that we are an unreliable partner.

Where will states go for alternate sources of funding? China, of course.

@DonaldJTrumpJr We have geolocated over 23000 videos about the Ukrainian war.

If you don't want to look you will indeed not see it. 🤷‍♂️

@elonmusk You are actually a disgusting human being. Mocking a man who’s shown grit and leadership, while his country is subject of a genocidal assault. A man who is clearly affected by the burden of responsibility he holds. Yet you, with unlimited wealth show no empathy or responsibility.

@GriffinFill I don't know about this one. I reckon with enough background you can make some decently good predictions, but it isn't a science. Especially when so much of foreign policy is dependent on individuals.

@TheRightMelissa @AdamKinzinger The ruble fell below a penny three days ago. Russia is weak. And poor.

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@GabeEcon It's worth noting, however, that the bulk of global emissions come from countries that haven't lowered their emissions. And that at the pace the world is moving, we are too late.

@GreatLakesSails @duluthnews Ah, so you're one of those people.

@GreatLakesSails @duluthnews Some free education.

@GreatLakesSails @duluthnews As for totalitarianism, that's laughable. Regular presidential, democratic elections are the furthest possible thing from totalitarian.

And yes, there is a wartime draft in Ukraine, as countriesoften have. But plucking people off the streets? Hardly.

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@GreatLakesSails @duluthnews That's cute. Again, no basis for your claims whatsoever.

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@GreatLakesSails @duluthnews Nice. No valid counterpoint so you have to resort to the number of times I've tweeted. Desperate.

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@JLBnEspi @duluthnews What

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@GreatLakesSails @duluthnews Ukraine is using cluster bombs on its own territory, accepting the risks that entails for the country after they win the war. They are documenting their salvos so they can sweep areas for unexploded ordinance after the fact. It's their country, they accept the risks.

[Governor Tim Walz @GovTimWalz]

Ope just gonna scooch right past ya

[Jean-Luc Genereau @GenereauLuc]

@USArmy People are so upset about removing the name of a traitor to the Union from a military installation. That's telling.

[WarMonitor @TheWarMonitor]

I'm tired of having to explain that when we give Ukraine a billion dollars, that's mostly the inflated value of weapons built years ago for far less, not cash. They need to be replaced with newer from US factories anyway. It's not part of the current budget. So stop bitching.
