    Another $14 billion to Israel

    Another $60 billion to Ukraine

    This bill was shit and we should be glad it’s dead

    War hawks cope and seethe

      Ukraine is a bulwark against Russian aggression. If it falls, Russia will be emboldened to bully other countries with impunity. That isn’t being a war hawk - it’s defending the status quo and its benefits.

        How is the status quo benefiting anyone? The lines aren’t moving, soldiers and civilians are dying daily.

        And yes, you are still a war hawk if you support the status quo of war to continue.

        IMO Ukraine should be admitted to NATO after negotiating a peace treaty.

        I’d argue they already did and yeah fuck Putin but we should be questioning whether it is morally right to support a stalemate that is killing a whole generation of Ukrainian men. We should absolutely be questioning how it is the American’s responsibility to support that indefinitely with taxes when we are so insanely in debt. How are any of these carve-outs appropriate in an “Immigration” bill?
