    Seriously we need to show tacit support for this specific event. Yes he’s a republican. Yes republicans are pieces of shit. But he is showing and saying unwavering support for Ukraine.

          Great. Maybe if I recruit more of them you guys will finally be forced to do something about your Nazi problem.

              It’s not even my country. I’ll sit here and be chastised after you get your house in order.

                So to be clear, you’re literally telling me you’re driving people toward the MAGA movement as a non-US citizen? Damn, I didn’t know Putin’s troll farms were allowed to go mask off now, that’s confidence.

        I understand your sentiment and frustration, and I’m also in so much pain from the political situation in the US. I think this congressperson should be commended for showing support for Ukraine in an incredibly overt and tangible way. I don’t think it helps us to shun all republicans, though I can understand those who do. If people like him can use their power to lead people back to goodness, I think we’ll more quickly go back to truly being great again

          I believe he is pro-Ukrainian because he visited the front lines to show support.

          It’s also politically dangerous with how much Trump despises Ukraine and will gladly talk shit on Republicans, but never has a cross word to say about Putin.

    He’s my local representative. He’s a pretty interesting guy. All his campaign stuff talks about him being the most independent politician in the country.

    He’s supported quite a number more Democrat legislation than most Republicans would like, but him and his brother before him have held a solid lock on our district’s voting for 20 years.

    He does enough to keep both sides of the aisle at least happy enough he wins by a healthy margin all the time. I’d much rather we had a progressive, but we’re a solidly mixed district with about 50/50 R vs D voters.

    His wiki has a few of the good things he’s done, but he’s also voted against the Trump impeachment and in favor of the Biden impeachment inquiry, so he’s still a Republican first and foremost. He is about the best Republican we have though, so take that as you will. I vote against him every time, but compared to some of our other Republican reps here, we could do much worse.

    There’s no such thing as a “pro-Ukraine Republican”. You doomed Ukraine when you voted for Trump.

    Meanwhile, he regularly pumps out propaganda on how illegal immigrants are ruining our country, making PA dangerous to live in. Also, how we need to support ICE and the current administration’s immigration policy 100%. Source: my physical mailbox

    Fuck this guy.
