The gall of asking for compassion from the very system he abused to ruin the lives of children. What a piece of shit.

While i abhor Bush Jr, I would put Reagan as #1. He paved the way for Bush Jr. And Biden. IMO Bush Sr is tied for the #3 spot simply for pardoning members of the Iran-Contra affair.
Nixon is one of the worst presidents we’ve ever had though, and I would put him higher than any of the others. The “war on drugs” caused so many rippling horrors domestically. And those horrors don’t compare to what he did abroad.
I feel like a bigger indicator of being a “full person” is getting over fear/disgust of public transit. I know plenty of people who are more well-adjusted than I am who don’t own a car.
Ah yeah, I was going for instantly recognizable
Yeah Alex Jones can rot in hell
Unfortunately, I would guess that school shooter locations are probably the most easily recognised in the US. Uvalde has a population of ~15,000, for instance.
And yet, Warren voted “yes” to sending $15b worth of military aid to Israel only weeks later..
One could argue that, because there was other aid to Ukraine tied into the bill, Warren didn’t want to risk the passage of the bill. I would say that a supposedly principled senator like Warren should have realized the gravity of the situation and follow her brave words with brave action. Other senators like Sanders and Merkley voted No on this bill for exactly that reason. In fact, Sanders tried to introduce an amendment that removed Isreal’s funding from the bill but received no support from people like Warren..
One could argue that Gaza aid was tied into the bill as well. However, Israel has been known to be blocking aid into the region, even before this vote took place. If Warren truly cared about the refugees/people of Gaza, she would have supported Sanders’ second amendment to the bill to restore funding to the UNRWA, which provides most of the food, water and shelter to Palestinians. But she didn’t.
I couldn’t find any other mention of her supporting an arms embargo after this vote either (unless I’m missing it, which is entirely possible given how difficult it is to find this shit). I remain unconvinced of Warren’s resolve on this matter.
Can you provide a source for this? I haven’t heard Warren call for an arms embargo, but maybe I’m not in tune. From what I understand very few senators support the arms embargo, despite wide support.
