Roughly a week after Donald Trump started his second term as president, the U.S. military issued an order to three freight airlines operating out of Dover Air Force Base in Delaware and a U.S. base in Qatar: Stop 11 flights loaded with artillery shells and other weaponry and bound for Ukraine.
In a matter of hours, frantic questions reached Washington from Ukrainians in Kyiv and from officials in Poland, where the shipments were coordinated. Who had ordered the U.S. Transportation Command, known as TRANSCOM, to halt the flights? Was it a permanent pause on all aid? Or just some?
Top national security officials — in the White House, the Pentagon and the State Department — couldn’t provide answers. Within one week, flights were back in the air.
The verbal order originated from the office of Pete Hegseth, the secretary of defense, according to TRANSCOM records reviewed by Reuters.
If, in 30 years, when the choice is between a democrat who wants 20 genocides and a republican who wants 21, will you still be voting blue? This is why people call you blue maga. There is no red line. You all will sacrifice however many Palestinians or Ukrainians it takes to bide time till the next election cycle when the Democratic party is definitely going to have a liberal Renaissance led by AOC and Bernie, and fascism will be defeated and we can all dance for joy. Never mind the lives of tens of thousands of Palestinian children it took to get you there.
Do you think Germans in mid 1930’s Germany had a duty to vote liberal despite democracy having already been thrown out the window? As people were getting sent to death camps and there was zero hope of fair and free elections, did Germans have a duty to vote blue? Or did they have a duty to start getting organized with vulnerable groups, learning sabotage, and getting armed?
Your “pragmatic” utilitarianism has resulted in a genocide and an incinerated planet. Your empire is over and devolving into fascism, and it’s time you start realizing that.
In democracy, politicans represent constituents. Biden and Kamala ignored constituents. Biden and Kamala lost. This is how democracy works. This outcome was more American than apple pie.
nice, I’ll bury my morals next to the millions dead for yours
I’m not saying give up on trying to save everyone, I’m saying your execution has only killed even more people
A non-vote is complicit by abiding the greater evil.
You get nothing, you lose. Good day sir.
Naive as hell. Yall are a joke. Way to avoid any of my questions.
Yall are the type who’d be ridiculing a 1940s German Jew for not voting liberal. This is why leftists accurately point out that liberals will side with fascism when things get rough.
Who convinced you of this shit logic? It’s embarrassing.
Yes. Is algebra hard for you?
And, fuck you for conflating “want” from “allow” when it suits you.
You are stupid and spewing bullshit, fuck you.
You’re stupid and naive. 20 elections voting for 20 not 21 genocides results in dramatically fewer genocides. Instead you now get exponentially more with your stupid purity test.
