Amy Klobuchar? Why did you vote for this election denying nominee? This regime is destroying the USA - is there a good reason for your vote? @amyklobuchar.com
anatosaurus.bsky.social Anat Shenker-Osorio @anatosaurus.bsky.social · 6d
You cannot tell voters that this regime is an existential threat one day and aid and abet it every other day. Either you're lying or you are complicit, neither of which makes you fit for office.

Hey Democratic leadership. Here is the message, and it's the ONLY message. Full stop.
Are you telling me we can spend $40B on Argentina, $1B on Trump's Qatar jet, $250M on Trump's ballroom, $150M on Trump's golf, $520M on Trump's National Guard deployments & $172M on Kristi Noem's jets - but we can't spend a penny on lowering our healthcare premiums. Oh, hell no.

Yes - Meidas Touch - Listen & Subscribe. - Great job! Pease add a daily “5 Lies 5 Facts” feature. Start with Trump claim/lie USA gave Ukraine $350 billion. See Reuters’s report
#GOPLies #Ukraine www.reuters.com/world/how-mu...
This chart shows total of military & financial aid to Ukraine from Europe & USA. Europe gave €132.26 billion. USA gave €114.15 billion according to publicly reported data. So European countries have given more than the USA. The USA did not give $350 billion as President Trump claims unless there are non-reported sources. This chart does not include humanitarian and refugee aid. European countries have given much more in those areas than the USA. This chart shows total in military aid. The USA has given about €65 billion and Europe has given about €62 billion. This chart shows the financial assistance both in direct grants and loans. The USA gave €18.34 billion in loans and €28.26 billion in direct grants. The European Union gave €41.64 billion in loans and about €5 billion in direct grants and €28.26 billion in loans European countries have given. So both the USA and European countries have given about €46 billion in financial assistance total each. This chart shows the humanitarian and refugee aid to Ukraine. The USA has given about €3 billion in humanitarian aid. Poland and Germany have each given much more. Germany has given of approximately €40 billion in refugee aid and three in humanitarian aid. Poland has given approximately €30 billion in refugee support.
