“I think that Vladimir Putin would continue to march through Europe if he were allowed. I think he might go to the Balkans next. I think he might have a showdown with Poland, or one of our NATO allies.” If so, he added, we might find ourselves sending troops to defend allies from Putin later.

I would rather that happen and deal with it down the line but for now spend our money here and now in America. Biden and his ilk are for now and the foreseeable future much more of a threat to the United States than Putin is. And i find Putin more believable then I find our current government officials on just about any topic.

It's not surprising that TNR wants to straw-man the objections to the endless flow of money into the most corrupt state in Europe with the false dichotomy that a)if you're against pouring a river of US taxpayer money into Zelensky's (and the Biden regime's) pockets that b) you're Putin's stooge!

That's ridiculous, but it's the their story and they're sticking to it.

The fact is, we have urgent, even existential problems right here at home that are going unaddressed, and the very same people who claim that we don't have the funds to secure our borders against an invasion force of millions, are demanding an unending, limitless flow of funds to a foreign power in a war that cannot be won and should never have been fought.

Trump, once again, has it right, though this writer seeks to caricature and mis-state his views, which he made clear less than 24 hours ago. This is the distinction that this writer and the foreign-policy blob in Washington are desperate to obscure is this: Trump isn't pro-Putin, he's pro-America, and wants to put America's interests first.

The other item that the Democrat machine and the legacy media (but I repeat myself) are working so hard to distract from is that the Biden regime owns this mess. It isn't a problem of Johnson's making, nor of Trump's. This all happened on Biden's watch, and the entire apparatus of the uniparty are all spinning furiously to try to muddy up their domestic opposition. It's kinda sorta working on some of the weaker-minded, as we can see here on FR.

Here's the winning message: secure our border first, use our allies and diplomatic power to stifle any irredentist tendencies that Putin or anyone else might have, and return to the peace and prosperity that we enjoyed during Trump's first term.

Prevention is always cheaper and better than the cure. It’s your kind of thinking which allowed Nazi Germany to arm itself to the teeth and cause a war which killed over 65 million people.
