>This isn’t the first time the America First movement influenced disastrous foreign policy affecting Europe. In the early 1940s the powerful America First Committee (AFC) advocated peace with Germany while opposing military and humanitarian aid for Britain. The AFC disbanded in disgrace after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and Germany declared war against America. In terms of world conflict an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure. World War II cost roughly 4 trillion dollars and the lives of 330,000 American soldiers.
Just like they did almost a century ago, the conservaturds are getting a good taste of all the richness they lick from Putler’s fascist asshole.
Republicans don’t care. They’ve chosen isolationism, and by God they’re gonna drag everyone down this path.
It’s gonna be like the UK and Brexit, and it’s gonna take 10-20 years before they even attempt a reverse course.
Ukraine, Europe and the US!
Republicans are not on team America… they have their own team. Party over country…
To be precise, it’s the republicans that are doing this.
I hate headlines like this. It’s such typical “both sides” stuff. “CONGRESS” isn’t squandering the future. The GQP is.
Bitching on Reddit does nothing, time for some course correction for democracy, government of the majority has failed dramatically and it doesn’t help with a coward like Biden in office stammering and shaking in his boots
Why is Congress squandering the future of Ukraine. Anybody not see the problem with that?
Its funny how amercians were all “LETS ALL HELP UKRAINE! SEND THEM EVERYTHING YOU GOT!” now theyre like “Nah, we out fam, take care bye bye!”
We are past feeling embarrassed as a country, time for action
This is an odd contrast to that of the Vietnam war where the politically aligned left wanted peace and to end the war, now it seems as though the left wants escalation
America is slow to understand that Ukraine is not top of Russias list to destroy. Neither is Europe. They’re both a means to an end. Russia has been clear – its No1 enemy is the USA. And right now Republicans are asleep at the wheel.
Trumpy and Slimey Johnson are Putin’s tools
If you’re an American who wants Congress to stop doing this, you need to press your government. We can coordinate over at r/ActionForUkraine. There’s also [a website](https://stopwarinukraine.com/support-ukraine-write-to-your-reps-in-congress/) to help make it clear that you support Ukraine. Feel free to spread the word as much as you can.
I wonder if they will take credit for it when it’s American kids fighting and dying. More likely they will blame Biden for not doing enough.
