    $464 million: the cost of one and a half Russian A-50 early warning planes - of which Ukraine just shot down one today - OR the cost of forgiving 12,500 student loans (out of 43 million Americans with student loans).

      Or a fraction of the cost many American families had to bitterly gulp because of that asshole’s lies during the pandemic.

      Waiiiit they shot another one down today!?!?!?!? Aren’t there only like 3 or 4 and they shot one down a month or so ago

      Edit: well damn they did! Fuck ya. Article I saw says they had 9 of these, 2 of which have now been shot down, and they’re never all active at once so that’s a huge blow.
