You left out the part where Pentagon spokesman John Kirby confirmed today there are about 300 U.S. troops in Ukraine with no plans to pull them out. That is what Tucker is concerned about, that they are being left by Biden as a pretext for war if they are harmed in a Russian invasion.
There’s also this from Yahoo News:
About 6,000 troops have deployed from the U.S. to Europe, nearly all of whom are soldiers with the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division. They’re backed by a growing array of military aircraft and rapid-response airmen who can quickly make airfield space to launch combat operations from anywhere.
US Air Force ramps up intel flights, weapons shipments to Ukraine
American fighter jets stationed elsewhere on the continent have moved farther east, including squadrons from Spangdahlem Air Base in Germany and RAF Lakenheath in England. B-52 bombers also arrived at England’s RAF Fairford on Thursday for a previously planned European rotation, as airlifters continue to jump around the region.
300 American troops can be in any country on earth, and it’s not a pretext to war by us when Russia decides to invade that country. There is no pretext, it’s just a war launched by Russia. Russia can avoid that terrible “pretext” by just staying within its own borders. Ukraine is no threat to Russia and for that matter America is no threat to Russia.
