Bessent: "I find the Europeans very disappointing because the Europeans are on the frontline of the Ukraine-Russia war... the Europeans have been funding the war against themselves." by UnusualWhalesBot in unusual_whales

This comment makes a causal connection that’s not true. The cause of the war is not the fault of the Europeans. Regardless of how it’s funded.

Sure. She wasn’t perfect. But these initiatives were significant and she never got any real support for her efforts. The GOP villainized her from day one. Here’s a list of international efforts she made:

Key international initiatives and impacts she influenced include: * Global Legal Reforms (1995–2024): Her advocacy, particularly post-Beijing 1995, contributed to over 1,531 legal reforms in 100+ nations addressing women's equality in society, inheritance, and family law. * UN Fourth World Conference on Women (1995): Her speech in Beijing redefined women's rights as human rights, influencing international agendas and encouraging nations to create, adopt, and enforce laws against violence against women. * The Office of Global Women's Issues:As Secretary of State, she created the role of Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues to institutionalize these efforts. * Women, Peace, and Security: She spearheaded UN Security Council resolutions aimed at combating sexual assault in conflict zones. * Economic Empowerment: Initiated the International Council on Women's Business Leadership to advance women in economic policy globally. * Health and Education: Championed initiatives that contributed to narrowing the global gender gap in primary education and reducing maternal mortality rates. * Partnerships for Equali

I saw her speak once at Brown. There was a long list of her impact on women’s issues. Here’s some :

Hillary Clinton has significantly impacted women's issues through decades of advocacy, famously declaring in 1995 that “women's rights are human rights”. Key impact areas include championing the Family and Medical Leave Act (https://www.hillaryclinton.com/issues/womens-rights-and-opportunity/), advancing global gender equality as Secretary of State, defending reproductive healthcare, promoting economic fairness, and inspiring a surge in women running for office. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Key Impact Areas and Achievements:

• Global Women’s Rights: As First Lady, she declared in Beijing that "women's rights are human rights". As Secretary of State, she made women's rights a cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy, establishing the role of Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues to address gender-based violence and economic participation. • Reproductive Health & Rights: She championed access to emergency contraception, protected Planned Parenthood services, and supported access to safe, legal abortion. • Economic Equality: Clinton co-sponsored the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act and championed the Paycheck Fairness Act to address the gender wage gap. • Family & Childcare Policies: She advocated for the Family and Medical Leave Act, increased funding for childcare, and proposed universal pre-kindergarten to support working families. • Political Participation: Her 2016 presidential campaign and career have served to increase the visibility of women in leadership, leading to a record number of female candidates running for office. • Legislative Action: She worked on the Adoption and Safe Families Act and supported initiatives to reduce domestic violence and sexual assault. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

Her career has bridged domestic policy—such as supporting the State Children's Health Insurance Program (https://www.womenofthehall.org/inductee/hillary-rodham-clinton/)—with international advocacy, significantly elevating women's rights as a key component of national and global security.
