Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Matt Gaetz (R-Fla.)

that’s an odd combo

We shouldn’t be sending troops from the USA...period. Plenty of troops in the neighborhood and let the neighboring countries engage Russia....which isn’t worth it.

I think even the EU is not interested in defending Ukraine.

Russia only wants the Eastern portion so it has a land bridge to Crimea. Russia has no interest on Kiev or the rest of Ukraine. But Biden needs the sensationalism and deflection from his own failures as a leader.

The pajama boys in the Biden cabal who are making policy are getting desperate. Putin has easily outmaneuvered these amateurs. His “peacekeeping” troops have taken over the territory he wanted without a shot being fired. They are now dug in and reinforced. Now if the Ukrainians wish to counterattack and reclaim their territory, they will face Russian combined arms and a punishing attack on their homeland. Biden’s amateurs think that by stationing American troops in that homeland, it will create a tripwire that the Russians won’t go near. That ploy never works.

Face it. The party is over. Putin has achieved what he wanted with no death and destruction. Doubt there will be any significant fighting. There are now facts on the ground that won’t be easy or likely to change.

Now the Chinese are jealous of Putin. Elements within the Chinese communist party and the military are pressuring Xi to act definitively on Taiwan. However, if and only if the Taiwanese are willing to fight and sacrifice ( alone) for their freedom and way of life, Xi knows that a n invasion across 90 miles of open ocean with an army that lacks combat experience, with locally untested ships and planes, is not sure to succeed. The consequences for failure won’t be pleasant for Xi, his family and acolytes.

“follow the Constitution and the law.”

I thought these wee irrelevant to the thugs in DC?

Biden and his stooge crew are getting more dangerous by the day we may not last 3 more years with those idiots in charge.

Biden has zero support on this.
Most of the ruling class knows Americans don’t want us involved.

If anyone in Congress cares about the Constitution, that includes every Republican, then the War Resolutions Act needs to be nullified. It cedes a power of the legislature to the executive. That was no how our Founders designed our government. There is zero reason why in the 21st century that Congress cannot not meet and debate on a moment’s notice to authorize use of military power.

Send ZERO SOLDIERS To Ukraine.

NOT ONE US soldier should be sent. If some already were, BRING THEM BACK!

Ukraine is not worth ONE American life.

Have we not learned our lesson? Again and again and again. (Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan)

I can see it now, sending in the “electric” Humvees. (and TANKS).

Nobody wants to get involved in Ukraine. We have our own problems with high energy costs and open borders.

“Lawmakers urge Biden to ask Congress before sending military to Ukraine”

While I don’t want ONE soldier to go to Ukraine, this would be a BAD precedent to set for any president, even an unelected, brain addled president.
