CNN —
The Biden administration is moving toward lifting a de facto ban on American military contractors deploying to Ukraine, four US officials familiar with the matter told CNN, to help the country’s military maintain and repair US-provided weapons systems.
The change would mark another significant shift in the Biden administration’s Ukraine policy, as the US looks for ways to give Ukraine’s military an upper hand against Russia.
The policy is still being worked on by administration officials and has not received final sign-off yet from President Joe Biden, officials said.
Vote third party if you’re in a solid colored state. The benefits are neat.
Vote blue if you’re in Texas, it’s been teetering for like 10 years now.
Solid red. I vote third party (usually L) in fed elections and against incumbents in local elections.
Edit: fuck me for living in a conservative state.
Solid red? Last election Biden would have won Texas if 3% of non-biden voters switched to him.
It’s absolutely insane that we have to talk about winning swing states instead of just having everyone’s voice matter and vote count equally. Trump lost the popular vote in 2016 and his presidency was illegitimate. We will never have a functioning democracy as long as we have the electoral college.
Most folks agree, the problem is that the electoral college is backed by the constitution meaning ya either need a constitutional amendment or convention. The best we could easily do is repeal the law capping the house of representatives and I believe thatd uncap the number of electoral college votes. Not a perfect solution but it is an improvement.
That would definitely help a lot. It wouldn’t be perfect, but at least some people’s votes wouldn’t be worth 3x more than others.
It’s the 3rd party’s job to get Republicans elected
Yeah? Solid red. Fuck you.
That’s not very nice
Fair. It gets a bit awkward at times.
I’m in a solid red state so I get to vote for the churn.
