Illustrious-Habit202

If you are American, remember this in November.


SmoothOpawriter

I think she’s quitting politics anyway, this was her legacy she’s leaving…


Confused_recursion

She reversed that statement and is now playing catch up against an even worse human who may beat her in the primary.


SmoothOpawriter

Oh boy, I didn’t know that, what a giant piece of shit.


borg359

This is exactly the reason. He started running ads against her claiming that she was more concerned with Ukraine’s interests than America’s interests. If she had a spine or any kind, she would argue that Ukraine’s interest in this war ARE America’s interests.


SmoothOpawriter

The worst part is I’m sure she knows everything you said above but CHOOSES to stick to the MAGA narrative because she thinks it will give her higher re-election chances. It’s despicable.


icefang37

I hate to be the guy to make the Nazi comparison. But it is fucking eerie how similar the way US conservatives are so excited to boot lick MAGA in the same way as the German conservatives were before they inevitably betrayed them and killed them. I guess that’s just conservative common sense(TM) for you.

A large chunk of humanity prefers authoritarianism if they think it will benefit them

Russia tried to corrupt America. Almost worked, but didn't.

Medium-Web7438

She is a rep from Indiana. I blame all of Indiana.


deathclawslayer21

Indiana is gerrymandered to hell. We don't like her either but apparently farms vote somehow


hidraulik

Them cornfields have rights ya know?!


vikingmayor

Why would you blame all of Indiana when that’s not how our political system works?


KeepAwaySynonym

Simple people have simple views. Hopefully they are a teenager... because I can't see a normal person who votes doesn't realize this. Or they could not be from the US, so that'd also explain lack of knowledge of our system.


Medium-Web7438

It's called being dramatic


holdmypocket34

Because its Indiana


Embarrassed_Put2083

I would like to see the percentage of people who voted..........most likely its a low percentage, in which case, all of Indiana is to blame since people there dont seem to give a shit about who's in office.


jingois

Consent of the governed. With some of the outrageous views that US politicians have, it's not enough to just say "well I voted for the other guy'. Do more. This idea of "I am not a bad person because my opinion is political" is bullshit. Some people have political views that make them bad people. They should be ostracised. You shouldn't associate with them. If you're in the minority it should be so outrageous that you would straight up move to a better place. There's not a huge difference between someone saying "I'm just gonna keep my head down and work to support myself and it's not really my fault that it supports the local economy" - whether that's in Indiana or Moscow.


vikingmayor

You understand if you move away and don’t engage those people she’ll still be voted in? Also a person in rural Indiana simply doesn’t engage with geopolitics, you have to convince them to care, and they still might not.


wrosecrans

According to The Onion, by 2137 Indiana will have only five laws. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iKC21wDarBo It feels right. I hate how much that ten year old video is still a satire of today's news.


ColtC7

It's news from the future after all, of course stuff will end up happening to bring us to it

It's really hard here. I can't wait to get out.

The congress woman is a fool...


unpropianist

Noted!


orlyfactor

Thankfully I don’t live in Indiana


Just_Cryptographer53

What state political system is anyone proud to live under at the moment? Serious question. So divided and no middle. Last election I told friends vote purple. I don't think it's possible this time. There is no purple.


Embarrassed-Radio356

So… she can never go back to Ukraine now or look anyone that fought or sacrificed for Ukraine in the eye ever again.

NoJello8422

That's the ruzzian dream then


19CCCG57

That is the American dream.


Cantgetabreaker

Don’t think Ukraine wants her back. Probably a Russian spy but who knows


zSprawl

She’s likely betrayed them already so what’s one more?


ukriva13

As an Ukrainian, all I gotta say is, “Fuck this bitch…”


GlassCharacter179

American here: fuck this bitch


Car_Guy_Alex

As someone who lives in her district, I say the same.


IntelligentIdiocracy

As an Australian. I’m with you mate. Fuck her to the moon and back, and then some.


Cool_As_Your_Dad

>ore concerned with Ukraine’s interests than America’s interests. If she had a spine or From South Africa and I say Fuck this bitch! She is a Useless oxygen thief.


M_W_C

German here. Could not agree more.


ElectronicRead4606

Yup, eff that bitch.


Bowler_Pristine

She is most certainly on the Russian payroll. there are many republicans who support Ukraine and she clearly does not represent American interests!


ImpatientSpider

I'd say Blackmail. When the invasion started she called it "a genocide of the Ukrainian people by a crazy man." It would take more than bribes to change her mind after that. I also think it is too much of a coincidence her home town got bombed in the lead up to the vote.


DisneyPandora

There is no way she’s on the Russian payroll. Her family’s town just got bombed three days before the vote


tsaoutofourpants

Then what's your theory as to why she voted the way she did? Compromat?


Grouchy-Chemical7275

Afraid of losing an election most likely


DisneyPandora

Because of domestic pressures and politics. She’s was scared of getting primaried


StevenStephen

This is the answer, most likely. She was very pro-Ukraine aid at the beginning of the full scale invasion, but she rabidly despises Zelensky, so she's always been awful one way or another.


DisneyPandora

Why was I downvoted?


Crazydishwasher

Because your logic makes no sense whatsoever.


Bowler_Pristine

Because she’s a Russian plant, a sell out, she cares about nothing but her self!


StevenStephen

I have no idea. The internet is weird, people are weird, bots are weird.


Martin_Orav

Because reddit.


LorenzoSparky

Oh right yeah because ruzzia wouldn’t bomb anyones town who’s on the payroll


Worrybrotha

Traitor.

America was built on immigrants. One of the best things about America, is that you can come and create a better life. You don't have to be from a certain, class, cast, or tribe. I would say instead of a security breach it is one of the greatest strengths .

3d_blunder

Please do: they should be illluminating.


alex_neri

many ruzzian army officers were born and raised in Ukraine


Armagh0109

Maybe she should go and live in Russia since she is so supportive of it? Also, strip her of her Ukrainian citizenship while barring her from ever entering Ukraine again.


boskee

Being born and raised in Ukraine doesn't guarantee you won't end up being an anti-Ukrainian cunt. Yanukovych was also born and raised in Ukraine.


vincevega87

She went to Moscow state university ffs


pkfag

She actually got her BSc and MBA from the Kyiv National Economoc University. Which is worse as Ukraine gave her both Nationality and her education and ultimately she turned her back on everyone that made her who she is and chose herself at their expense. Life has a special place on Earth for scum like this. No rewards can fill the hole she created.


MisinformationKills

Strong r/iamatotalpieceofshit energy on display here.


XVIII-2

How opportunistic can you be?


SisterNaomi

She is a far right political extremist from the get go, under Putin’s control, totally predictable behavior from her. US far right are traitors, Ukraine has ‘em too. They are “safe” in Congress.


IntelligentIdiocracy

It’d be interesting to see where the money leads. Surely there’s a law being broken somewhere there.


footdragon

U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz....you fucking traitor - to 2 countries


humanmeatwave

History is never kind to those that are traitors to their homeland and people. I highly doubt that her 30 pieces of Russian silver will be worth it, especially since it's tainted with the blood of her people. Those who embark in such despicable treachery should hope that hell does not exist, because of it does, then there will be a special place reserved for these turncoats, the most wretched of cowards and quislings.


Car_Guy_Alex

She's my local rep, and a massive piece of shit.


Bumpy-road

A lot of Russians were born in Ukraine…


JohnnySkynets

>Instead she has called for better oversight of U.S. funds and opposed giving “blank checks” to the Ukrainian cause. She says U.S. border security should be a bigger priority. Umm, about that…


Designer-Passenger56

she would have to be nuts.


redratio1

She is a bit of a nut-job really.


dafeiviizohyaeraaqua

Francis Dearnley of *Ukraine: The Latest* interviews here somewhere in here: [https://youtu.be/vqLRuje9xFU](https://youtu.be/vqLRuje9xFU) (2023-10-26). As I recall she starts off sounding reasonable then disolves into vacuous bubble-babble to avoid giving direct, honest answers.


disturbed_waffles

She still has family there too, like wtf?


Aka-Kitsune

Victoria Stinkz has the rare distinction of being a traitor to two nations.


renjkb

Russian asset.


The_Man11

She was a piece of shit before this. All her staff quit because she’s a raging bitch.


Nonamanadus

Lots of "Ukrainians " were selling photos to the Russians for chump change.


GyspySyx

Again, she's not Ukrainian.


Artistic-Luna-6000

She was born Вікторія Кульгейко -- sounds ethnic Ukrainian to me. Apart from the fact that she was born in Ukraine.


GyspySyx

You really do not get it.


Artistic-Luna-6000

How do you mean?


Noctilux5

She is, but the worst kind.


GyspySyx

Russian.


Noctilux5

She was born in Nosivka,Ukraine.


GyspySyx

So were lots of Russians. That's at the crux of this whole issue.


Noctilux5

They were soviets anyway, so I don't know what your point is. According to your silly logic, President Zelensky isn't Ukrainian, which is a silly statement to make.


porcelaincatstatue

Her district is right next to mine. Unfortunately this state is backwards as fuck. Exhibit A: this asshole.


UndeadDemonKnight

Worst type of human.

bill_b4

I wonder what political party she belongs to?


PotatoAnalytics

Just goes to show how deep Trumper Republicans are in Putin's pockets.


NMSDalton

I’m in her district and happily vote against her every time. She’s garbage.


planborcord

She is to Ukrainians what Ted Cruz is to Latinos.


ffdfawtreteraffds

The only reason can be... money. She's either getting paid now or setting the stage to get paid later. As we all know, there is a percentage of humans from all races and nationalities that are selfish scum. She is part of that percentage.


hike2bike

Traitor


Mutherfalker95

Wasn't she born in the Ukrainian ssr?


Stardust_Particle

Did she become a naturalized citizen?


Shurak0

Bigger question is - did she surrender her Ukrainian citizenship? Because if not next time she visits Ukraine they could arrest her for treason.


2lostnspace2

What a fucking troll


Tiptoeplease

Anyone have a link to the congressional vote roll call. I know senator rubio has gone weak kneed on support. Wants to negotiate he has to go too But I want to be sure to oust everyone who voted no in Florida


DaCmanLou

Traitor.


dmetzcher

She should be offered a taxpayer-funded trip to the Donbas region where she can live in the war zone created by Putin, whose quest for power she apparently doesn’t want to end. I’ll gladly buy her a first-class ticket to any Russian or Ukrainian city of her choosing.


JuanitaBonitaDolores

Bitch!


JuanitaBonitaDolores

She’s a bitch


majakovskij

It doesn't matter where you are from, crazy Russian money corrupt people


PeterTheToilet

What a clown..


Empyrealist

Oh look another garbage member of the republic party.


Varjag31

She had a recent interview on YouTube, if anyone ever had any doubts about her stance. And a sizable audience ready to gobble it up. [https://youtu.be/gwHSdhdBwk4?si=kSD-ktdDSwlxEE8D](https://youtu.be/gwHSdhdBwk4?si=kSD-ktdDSwlxEE8D)


dumbassname45

Perhaps it’s worth while reading some Ukrainian History. Stalin caused a man made famine that killed of millions of Ukrainians and then shipped in Russian people into Ukraine. So simply saying this senator was born and raised in Ukraine doesn’t mean she is a Ukrainian native.


MaximumPerrolinqui

She’s appalled at the notion her heritage would dictate her voting? Every other person uses their “faith” or “rural-ness” to dictate their voting. She’s just a piece of garbage, trumplikin trying to slobber enough to get reelected. I guess it is lost on her how the vote went.


MaudSkeletor

and she just went on a pro kremlin program to spread Russian propaganda narratives about Zelensky... When I think about this woman I am reminded that Ilya Kiva was also born in Ukraine


ichoosenottorun_

American politicians are so fucking spineless


CohesiveBaboon

High Treason


tittyman100

She served her own interest accepting Rusky bribes. No other explanation. She's a traitor of her own people. Unforgivable.


UkrChick

As native Ukrainian I am deeply ashamed…


DifficultySuch5384

Not your fault that she is a traitorous piece of whale shit.


eat_more_ovaltine

She will betray America if given the chance.


CriticalLobster5609

She already has with this vote. Ukrainian freedom is an American national security issue.


myNinthRealName

Spartz? She's a double traitor.


Barrycandlemaker

Rich peoples love of money really knows no boundaries


Recording_Important

She understands how corruption works


DJANARKI

ive seen her she is disgusting probably a putin lover ....disgrace


Classic-Ad-4784

People like her are not to be trusted. Send her back to the frontlines in Ukraine. During the shelling traitors, and followers of Putin can carefully think about what humanity actually means.


blacknova84

I'm sure her FSB handler is happy and I hope people remember this in November.


DMMMOM

She probably just voted to appease her constituents and remain on the political gravy train. People are treacherous cunts.


MongArmOfTheLaw

Traitorous wretch. She's the brass-necked type to actually come to Ukraine for a glory tour and say 'Well I voted against it for your own good, the fighting has to stop! Will nobody think about the children?'. Upon hearing which the locals will quite rightly tar and feather her.


Dazzling-Conclusion9

As a first-born Ukrainian American I hope that Kyiv blocks her katsap loving, treasonous ass from ever entering Ukraine again. Сука


noble3070

I fear her family may be threatened...


Damonatar

She's a Russian spy


Own_Philosopher_9651

Thatcherism - such a marvelous quality in a congresswoman


Intransigient

It was a Party Vote — she didn’t have a say in it. Whichever way she voted, it got replaced by the Party Vote.


porcelaincatstatue

[Here](https://justfacts.votesmart.org/candidate/key-votes/178203/victoria-spartz/89/foreign-aid) is her record. It's wishy-washy.


imJapan

She seems slightly more reasonable than Margorie Taylor Greene. Your heritage shouldn't dictate your decision making, and the USA should be ensuring this aid is used for its intended purpose.


snelldan

Perhaps she has a reason, like more direct aid wanted, something else written into aid bill that she did not like.... it would be interesting to ask her the reason before burning her at the stake. If her answers don't justify the "no", then strike your match.


WSHK99

Journalists just can’t stop to dig into something that only hurt Ukraine


kensmithpeng

She is an American. Nobody said she was smart. America has their fair share of stupid people too you know. And many of them work in Washington and their corporate symbol is an elephant


UnfairAd7220

She voted against all the trash in that bill... And it was loaded with political trash.
