he probably would, but I think the dude is recovering right now

cannot believe that senator is bragging about breaking a veteran's arm

you think taiwan is a more important trading partner than china?

it's not like we need to commit military to maintain our current relationship with taiwan either

Would I be against Russia or China codifying their commitment to arm Cuba against the US? No, because we're actively starving their people.

Would the US government take issue with it and would it provoke military action? Yeah absolutely

exactly, it's such an unforced error

the answer to taiwan if you don't want to outright say "we should not get involved in international disputes on the other side of the world" should just be "I have confidence China and the US can work together to avoid conflict and build a strong relationship"

wrong, the entire community was rooting for her but the "interventionist" email and then doubling down on the taiwan military aid stance lost them

I think more important is that the people most likely to volunteer and donate to her are this crowd, and it's very destructive to her momentum to flub

she can't go back on it now, so I hope whatever positive reach the debate got her helps

if she jumps to like 4% from the lead in polls it'll be easier to promote her to others, I just really doubt the neolib crowd praising her now will do her any favors since those will probably go Biss anyway

I'll keep defending Kat Abughazaleh but man did she screw herself over with that Taiwan take

just makes it impossible for anyone to hear her out on other policies or garner good press, even on the "cut the pentagon budget" stance, because it will always come back to 'but we'll go to war for taiwan'

Tanker carrying Russian oil diverts from Cuba under US pressure as Cuba faces oil shortages

in case you're distracted by the horrible war crimes the US is committing overseas, we're also seizing any ship from countries trying to bring oil to a starving Cuba

This war must end. Our Senators and Congressman must not know a moment’s peace until this ends.

No war with Iran.

Trump ran on “America First,” promising to end regime change wars. Now he’s dragging us into another one—with no justification to the American people or Congress. While working people struggle at home, he escalates abroad. This war must end. This aggression must stop.

only solution is to give iran a nuke so we can all stop arguing if they have one and then we can leave them the fuck alone

bad day to be getting called a war hawk calling for intervention in iran on the timeline because of your zionist foreign policy advisor

great time to come out as so strongly anti-war that we should start closing military bases worldwide and allocating the funds to american healthcare

it's a good response, not great, but good to fire the guy right away for telling reporters she supports intervention in Venezuela and Iran.

the Taiwan stance is still pretty nuts, it's not anti-war by any means. If diplomacy comes first, we shouldn't be threatening China with military intervention

Breaking Points says she's going on the show Tuesday to talk about it, but that's 5 days away, it's going to metastasize by then

yeah "make Russia pay for its crimes" shouldn't mean "the USA goes to war with Russia"!!

We're trying to stop forever wars, not threaten the nuclear powers of the world with World Police America

People here are so lost without conservatives to dunk on they've started adopting neocon positions themselves and calling it progressive

the responses to this are insane, a policy more rightwing than trump is willing to take and bluesky is calling it based

her voters are among those 3,000,000 viewers, and anyone those people know who are in her district will be sent these and told about her

when china sails a warship right up to the island 100 miles off their shore and we shoot a missile at it, that's attacking china

you can pretend it isn't, you can even post about it loudly, but china's not gonna see your post they're going to fire back

If their people want to stay independent then yeah

We shouldn't be using the island as a military outpost to threaten China like we are, and we shouldn't be acting like the world police considering our track record and current actions

how in your mind does "defending taiwan militarily from china" go?

when china takes the island, and we respond, militarily, what does that look like. who do we have to attack

Horrible situation, if and hopefully when she fires the guy and clarifies her foreign policy takes it's going to be another narcolepsy moment for her, but worse

"You didn't even know what your foreign policy advisor was saying you supported" is rough, but not as bad as keeping those positions

No lmao, why would that be worth going to war over? With a nuclear power?

That's "plunge us into WW3" territory it's insane, and for what, a country where most of the people consider themselves Chinese anyway

the problem is no progressive should be committing to attacking the nuclear power of China over Taiwan, the strategic ambiguity position we have right now is better than that at least

(We should not go to war with anyone over Taiwan)
