"...And MTG threw a tantrum on the way out. Win-win"

I will never not read that as magic the gathering, it makes the news so much better
- What's it supposed to be?
  
  Marjorie Taylor Green, Congress woman from Georgia. (Jewish space laser)
  
  Wait... Does she matter? Why is there such an overlap between politicians in the US, and people you are surprised aren't in an asylum?
- Has this MTG ever sicced the Pinkertons on someone?
  
  She probably would if she had the opportunity.

the next tweet, wonder when marge started throwing a fit
- the tantrum, btw
  
  I can't believe the Republicans are appeasers. They beat the drum for decades how Democrats couldn't stand up to tyrants, and now Republicans are literally appeasers. It's 1984 levels of turnaround.
  
  Fun fact for those on the fence about this, the US has monetary sovereignty in a fiat currency, which means that the US government has essentially infinite money.
  Edit: for those that are curious, yes, the game about the federal budget is exactly that. The deficit is essentially tracking the amount of money that the federal government owes to itself. Remember, fiat currency means that the value of money exists because the government says that it holds that specific value. A $2 dollar bill is still worth $2 when purchasing items, but worth several $ more than the printed value.
  Edit 2: I didn't think it needed to be said, but I've been proven wrong. I don't literally mean infinite money.
  
  Holy shit.. they’re STILL on about “the Clintons”? At least it wasn’t the Clinton Soros Obama Global Initiative…
  
  Lol
  
  Fucking scumbag.

I think that MTG, and a lot of commenters on here, need to realise that Ukraine will not stop this war until Russia are out, regardless of the international support or otherwise. Even if Ukraine is overrun completely the war would not stop, but would go on until Russia leave.
- I would add three things to what they need to realize:
  It is possible for Ukraine to win.
  Russia is a ruthless and incompetent oligarchy, and they cannot be allowed to expand their territory.
  Fighting or fleeing are vastly preferable to being subsumed by Russia.
  
  All perfectly correct. However, it is a war that Russia will never win, like Afghanistan.
- To add on -- we need to recognize that Russia is trying to enforce the old rules of imperialism. In their eyes, Ukraine did not have the right to determine their own future and who they wanted to ally with. Russia had to approve of all their decisions and Russia controlled them.
  Defeating Russia is more then Ukrainian independence. It is an unequivocal statement by the West that we will not allow imperialism nor wars of conquest to resurface in Europe. And hopefully with time, this extends to the rest of the world too, and other countries will check Western ones if we begin to forget that.
  At the end of the day, a country's sovereignty and right to self determination are sacred, only to be stripped if they use it to deny others of the same. There is a clear leftist geopolitical perspective here for continuing to back Ukraine.
  
  That's great and all, but mostly it's keeping one of their largest geopolitical rivals tied up in a war that saps their strength at relatively small cost.
  
  To add on -- we need to recognize that Russia is trying to enforce the old rules of imperialism.
  Which is absolutely bullshit when you consider that originally Moscow was in Ukraine, not Russia
- People refuse to recognize that the Ukrainian people do not want to be taken over by the Russians. There's no good reason why they should be. They refuse to acknowledge the desires of the people, maybe because fighting back against an oppressor is foreign to their own cowardly psychology.
- You should rephrase this, almost looks like you believe Ukraine wants to be attacked by war criminals and terrorists.

Democrats need to hit back more like AOC does
- And Fetterman. These two really make me smile with their next level trolling.
- I don't always see eye to eye with AOC, but I know her heart is in the right place. Can't say the same for any other politician, Republican or Democrat.
  
  Same. I think her and Bernie believe in what they're fighting for and it's for the good of the people, not corporations.
  I may not agree with some of their positions but I believe they are doing what they believe is right. 9 times out of 10 I will vote for someone I think is honest and trying to do what's best for the country even if I disagree with them, and I refuse to vote for an obviously dishonest politician even if I do agree with most of their positions.

I would've preferred if Ukraine funding was still in there, but MTG screeching is an alright consolation.
I find it interesting too how many people wanted "a clean bill" but then voted against it anyway because it didn't have extra stuff they wanted or, in Rand Paul's case, they're fucking pieces of shit.
- Probably the only thing Russia didn't want to budge on for its foreign assets.

If it pisses off MTG you know it's good
- Oh no, some one spit in her chitlins.

Is there a video of the tantrum?

Like a toddler at a candy store.
- Worse. She's paid for this
  
  What are you doing for free, citizen?

Fuck MTG, Boebert, Loomer and all the other repcunts.

MTG gonna be even more mad when she sees this 😂
- If she could read she'd be very upset

Stay mad forever bitch 😂
- If anyone ever deserves to live by the rules she expects others to live by it's that dum bitch.
  
  Now now, she's not a dumb bitch, that's Boebert the sex pest. MGT is the Evil Bitch.

It's a victimless non-crime.

I've heard house GOP got a raise somehow, not confirmed with big news yet
