Warren called for arms embargoes seven months ago. Wait for someone who hasn't been against this for months before taking the told-you-so victory lap.

Can you provide a source for this? I haven't heard Warren call for an arms embargo, but maybe I'm not in tune. From what I understand very few senators support the arms embargo, despite wide support.

Blocking the sale of a military aircraft is not the same thing as an arms embargo.

“I think it is clear that Congress has a responsibility to act. We have legal tools here. And as I said, we cannot approve the sale of arms to a country that is in violation of our own laws on this."
