We enslaved black people for 200 years. We nearly annihilated all the Native American tribes. Both groups still suffer massively because of what our government has done to them. We put Japanese Americans in internment camps. We're a shameful nation, this might be top 10, but I doubt it.
I think every outraged American should show support to Ukraine by donating to the Charity President Zelynsky himself created to help his country with this war. I just did.

I am also sure of this. The reason Republicans are letting this slide is because they do not have any intention of holding mid-term elections. If they do allow elections to happen, they will manipulate all the angles in their favor.
As an Eastern EU immigrant and an IR scholar, I watched the whole thing in disbelief. I was at still hanging on to the hope that, if Putin invaded my country too, I could attempt to save some of my folks. No more. 💔

Off the top of my head. But this was piss poor
Imagine a man who lets Putin sing him lullabies lecturing a man who doesn’t back down to dictators..
Never did right by women. Never did right by Native Americans. Never did right by the descendants of slaves. Never did right by Mexicans.
Karma. It’s now here. And it’s brought nazis & rapists.
How are you all not on the streets? Untrustworthy country that needs knocking down a peg.
