Redditors Big Mad When Employees Of A US Institution They've Never Heard Of Before Are Fired By DOGE

https://old.reddit.com/r/news/comments/1jn0xl3/most_employees_at_us_institute_of_peace_massfired/

								

								

Most employees at the US Institute of Peace, a congressionally created and funded thinktank now taken over by Elon Musk's unofficial "department of government efficiency", received email notices of their mass firing late Friday, the latest step in the Trump administration's government downsizing.

Glantz studied how Russia has fomented conflicts around the world and analyzed options for resolving them. She hoped her research could be continued and used elsewhere. She said the institute plays a unique role because of its narrow focus on conflict resolution.

Has a think tank ever produced anything of relevance?

Memory holed liberals strike again

Authorization for Use of Military Force Against Iraq Resolution of 2002

United States House of Representatives

215 (96.4%) of 223 Republican Representatives voted for the resolution.

81 (39.2%) of 208 Democratic Representatives voted for the resolution.

United States Senate

29 (58%) of 50 Democratic senators voted for the resolution. Those voting for the resolution were:

21 (42%) of 50 Democratic Senators voted against the resolution. Those voting against the resolution were:

1 (2%) of 49 Republican senators voted against the resolution

39% and 58% seems to add up to "100% rightoid" in libcalc.

You are a legitimate 80 iq r-slur (rdrama user with over 10k comments) if you looked at 96.4% of house republicans and 98% of senate republicans voting in favor of Military force against Iraq and coming to the conclusion that this was actually the democrats that were the cause of the Iraq war.

You're the one who made the claim that it was "100% rightoids fault", when the majority of Democrats in the Senate and almost 40% of Democrats in the House supported it.

Typical liberal talking points on being "blameless" even when your party aligned with Republicans on the issue.

Who said that the Dems were blameless, the claim is the the Iraq War is on the rightoids and obviously with near universal approval from a rightoid house, senate, and executive the war was going to happen regardless of Dem support. Also keep yourself safe for commenting over 10,000 times on this website.

>The republicans fully supported the war with a near 96%+ approval and unanimity

>The war was going to happen regardless of Dem support (which was half of that)

>Therefore the Iraq war is 100% of the rightoids

Why is this a contradiction or gotcha? How is wrong to claim that the Iraq war is 100% on rightoids lol?
