Shame/embarrassment/guilt are all good restraints on shitty behavior.

With friends like these...freedom dies.

Seems worth reminding that the war would end today if Russia left Ukraine

@RepBrandonGill You are an embarrassment to our party, our nation, and our species. Resign.

[Tyler Boliver @TylerBoliver]

Somebody primary this man so we can get an actual conservative in his Texas seat instead of a Trumpkin cultist who’s biggest goal is to publicly kiss Trump’s ample ass?

[Carl @HistoryBoomer]

Putin started the war.

Sending aid to a country that was attacked is not supporting war. It's supporting a world where invaders can't profit from unprovoked aggression.

Turning away and allowing the invaders to win is supporting war.

I love the Community Notes here.

If you don’t want WWIII, then you don’t want some thug dictatorship thinking it can invade countries whenever it feels like.

@chasminicozzi @JustinWStapley That's also an urban myth believed only by the congenitally innumerate.

[Justin Stapley @JustinWStapley]

It's interesting that the "Make America Great Again" folks seem to consistently have an image of a country that should take it's place among nations as "just another country" with no regard for ideals, principles, or values as we scramble to secure power for ourselves in an internal zero sum game. Their sense of greatness is pretty dang moribund given the history of our great country.

Wait, we're going to finally hear the story of the pee tape?

[Ed Tarnowski @edtarnowski]

NATO is history’s most successful peacekeeping alliance. Do many EU countries need to pay more? Of course. Still, NATO vastly benefits us.

This era of relative peace is history’s exception, not the rule. It brings America unimaginable prosperity & keeps us from would-be wars.

[Garry Kasparov @Kasparov63]

I'm sure this is just as much of a coincidence as Sacks' constant slandering of Ukraine. The looting of public funds into the pockets of a few insiders accelerates. Putinization, although he didn't have crypto in the early 2000s.

[Ruth Deyermond @ruth_deyermond]

Not strictly true, the Trump peace plan seems to be: the US takes Ukraine's assets; Russia keeps Ukraine's land; Ukraine shuts up and does what it's told. Trump's peace plan is a plan for peace between Russia and the US, not Russia and Ukraine.

[Kimberly Ross @SouthernKeeks]

We’re all about to find out that the world is much more dangerous when the United States isn’t helping to keep the peace for the West. This is what happens when we spend money on getting indolent instead of on defense and deterrence. Decadence is going to have deadly consequences.

[Sir William Browder KCMG @Billbrowder]

Not true. Russia’s continued invasion of Ukraine will lead to a continuation of the Ukraine war. But interesting that Russia now calls it a war. You used to get 8 years in prison calling it a war (you had to use the word special military operation)

[Stephen Hayes @stephenfhayes]

He's stating the obvious -- still a gut punch to read it.

@REMattersAZ @KenGardner11 You are the left dumbass. Own it.
