So if there is nothing you can do without congress, except something you don’t want to do and are forced into. But the situation at the border needs to be addressed… then it’s your fault.
It’s not as if there was a much broader plan with expansion of processing capacity of asylum requests that was torpedoed by R’s solely to deny D’s a win. Oh wait…
I just think the media in general should be less forgiving of trump. The man is a loon and a danger to society.
There in the Netherlands the media especially print also used the right wings popularity to sell more copies. Now the right is on power… the VAT on print media is raised from 6 to 22 percent… and they are all crying about it.
I have no sympathy for the print media people… they contributed to this result and profited from the path to the result. They deserve this outcome.
For OP: This above is the Russian talking points light, presented as a reasonable timeline. It glances over so much important stuff.
Hexbear is a group of useful idiots steered by the Russian MOD. Anything that destabilized their adversaries is good. This als means feeding a wide array of victim blaming, feeding competing narratives and generally making people question if there actually is a truth.
No, even remotely trying to provide justification for the Russian campaign of terror and atrocities against Ukraine is destructive rhetoric.
RUSSIA IS THE BAD GUY. No if’s and’s or but’s about it. There was no existential threat to Russia, there was/is no plan to invade Russia, there are no Nazis ruling Ukraine.
Every day we see in the newspapers new examples of the barbarism the Russians show towards their Ukranian neighbors. Russia steals children, actively targets civilians, civilian infrastructure and even first responders. It armed terrorists with an advanced Anti air system and shot down a passenger airliner… the list of bad guy things is endless.
And the whole “disagreeing with the narrative because there is more to it” is just propagating Russian talking points and helping them muddy the water. Russia joining NATO would have been the death of nato. And in turn the structure for keeping Russia in check would have been gone.
All former Soviet states lived under the brutality of Moscow and know first hand that they cannot be trusted. It is good they where believed.
Again, the reason we are here is because of Russian foreign policy and Ukraine not bending the preverbial knee.
The fact that Ukraine did not want to bend the knee and felt strong enough to do so only due to support from the EU and the US says something about the weight of the Russian diplomatic gorilla.
War is just diplomacy by other means. And Russia cannot accept a free and prosperous neighbor that had enough natural resources to actually be a financial threat to Russia while having close enough ties in culture and language to show the average Russian that there is an alternative to Putin’s cleptocracy.
Ukraines interests are supported by the US and the EU and many other countries after their democratically elected government goes on a worldwide tour pleading for help against an invasion… totally the same thing.
If the police end up storming your house after a couple of armed criminals take over your house… their interest are also aligned with yours. Their motivation differs from yours though.
