But it seems like too many policymakers these days look at sanctions like “well we don’t like them but we can’t bomb them, so economic punishment it is because reasons.” And the only way to be lifted is to swear full fealty to the U.S. instead of making discrete changes. — PolitiTweet.org

If sanctions are being used to affect some sort of policy change, then they need to be lifted once that change happens. Like, say, sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program after the Iran Deal was finalized. — PolitiTweet.org

Hayes Brown @HayesBrown

The idea that sanctions are either a) forever punishments or b) only removed after regime change is part of why sanctions are both overused and underperforming as a policy tool — PolitiTweet.org

and I follow a lotttttt of people who are specialists in their areas and am grateful for them. in fact, that was one of the best reasons to use twitter especially early on, the chance to follow, interact with, and learn from legit experts in their fields. — PolitiTweet.org

Hayes Brown @HayesBrown

as someone who’s more or less a generalist these days (but with a few areas I know more about than others!) i get the appeal of seeming like you know A Lot about everything. but i try to spread facts instead of just hot takes, which makes me feel less ridiculous. — PolitiTweet.org

suggestion for the folks who complain about the "COVID experts who became voting rights experts turned out to be military experts, etc” — maybe just find the people on here who are actual experts in those areas and retweet them instead? — PolitiTweet.org
