      It was highly demanded by the majority of voters and was a bargaining tool to approve funds to defend Ukraine.

      This is exactly the kind of contextless bullshit that Republicans win elections on.

        Oh, that makes it better. As long as it’s to bargain for the smallest bit of help for Ukraine while we let Gaza burn and the collateral is migrants fleeing record violence. What a genius bargaining tool.

        Republicans win on Democrats expecting people to fall in line. Michigan proved if people didn’t suck and lick boots daily, they might actually make a difference.

        Your comment shows what is meant by “my friends” above. White Europeans? Friends. South Americans? Bargaining chips. Repulsive stuff.
