I mean yeah but didn’t Walz personally send the national guard against citizens during protests? Maybe let someone else field this one.

Did they forgive new debt or are they just discharging debt that legally should already have been forgiven?

Extending Russia, Rand Corporation 2019

The United States could also become more vocal in its support for NATO membership for Ukraine... While NATO’s requirement for unanimity makes it unlikely that Ukraine could gain membership in the foreseeable future, Washington’s pushing this possibility could boost Ukrainian resolve while leading Russia to redouble its efforts to forestall such a development.

Expanding U.S. assistance to Ukraine, including lethal military assistance, would likely increase the costs to Russia, in both blood and treasure, of holding the Donbass region. More Russian aid to the separatists and an additional Russian troop presence would likely be required, leading to larger expenditures, equipment losses, and Russian casualties. The latter could become quite controversial at home, as it did when the Soviets invaded Afghanistan.

They literally tested one like a week ago.

We want Israel to win and we want Ukraine to be an expensive quagmire for Russia.

Preemptively rolling out that “Democrats losing is the fault of everyone except the Democrats” narrative, again.

Must have seen the MN polling numbers…

Nice article but it just makes me wish I had the financial security to pursue something like this. I’ve got a good job, even.
