The arrogant way she says 'mr. Snyder' instead of dr., thinking she made a point and then still getting completely destroyed is nice.
Timothy Snyder is such a treasure. I saw him a few months ago giving a lecture in Berlin. There were so many people that they put speakers outside and let you look thru the windows. Afterwards Timothy got the Beatlemania treatment by all the Ukrainians :p. He was a perfect gentleman and gave everyone a bit of a chat and signed books, etc.
Lecture was great as well. He mentioned that there's remnants of an ancient city in Ukraine that gets way too little attention as it could be one of, if not THE oldest settlements in the world. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nebelivka_(archaeological_site)
It worked even though it got directly to its target.
A few questions for people in this thread who may know that I haven't seen answered any articles I've seen:
1. Is this aid to Ukraine expected to last for the remainder of the year? Will it?
2. When will further US military aid be considered once this passes?
3. Does the current aid package contain enough for Ukraine to strengthen its defenses and make gains on the battlefield (however marginal)?
I'm quite ignorant on military tech so all the talk of ATACMs, Patriot missile systems, etc. goes way over my head as a non-American.
(also fucking YAY IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING)

I will likely get passout plastered tonight if it happens
Majority of Republican voters voting against, but the bill will pass. Really shows you the current state of the Republican army, in 30 years they've gone from willing to go to war to stop the Soviet Union from spreading into any country to openly supporting Russian imperialism.
Thank fuck for that. It's been getting harder and harder for Ukrainian forces to fight back and it's been clear that's in no small part due to lack of supplies.
Gods, finally. I'm so embarrassed for this country and saddened for the Ukrainians whose lives could have been saved if this had been done when it was needed.

God, look at that divide among Republicans.
Better hope Dems take the House later this year.
What's included in H.R. 8035 exactly? I went through the bullet points but couldn't find a figure.
It mentioned the President shall have increased powers to transfer defense articles and services to foreign countries but I wonder how Biden can effectively use that new authority.

Thank goodness.
Moscow Marjorie is such a worthless human being. Always good to see her get wrecked in front of the whole nation.
SLAVA UKRAINI!

Not even just Moscow Marjorie, so many others in GOP are Goon of Putin.
Take a some time, we may get some fun action going in your absence
Also passed a bill which allows the President to seize Russian assets and send the funds from it to Ukraine
And of course social media is just focused on the so-called ban on TikTok.
Repo act is clearly the most important thing imho.
Day drinking is a thing in North America lol :)
Fucking finally.
In saying that, the E.U CANNOT rely on the U.S solely for its safety moving forward. I know that means military production, I know people will go "bu-bu-but that's bad" but as long as Russia is run by authoritarians, absolute peace is NEVER gonna be an option and if a Trump-figure ever gets elected again, the U.S will not help Europe. It just won't.

Now we wait when Schumer calls in the Senate, which is supposed to be this weekend. Biden may be able to sign these bills prior to Monday, and it wouldn't surprise me as the risk is off the DoD is already moving.
Oh they are definitely spooked (maybe not Putin), but they only took one stronghold in the past several months U.S. aid has been slow or non-existent. Their missile campaign and FABs have definitely put the hurt on the Ukrainians, but ground wise not much has happened minus avdiivka
I've seen it suggested that he was shown the intel about Russia's larger aims including Putin setting his sights on Poland.
I'm hoping Ukraine will be able to mount a summer offensive round 2 this year.
Likely a combination of Dems agreeing to support on rules/ motion to vacate, and intelligence briefings saying Ukraine is in serious peril.
