Graham brings up some interesting ideas about what is really going on.

Key points:

  1. Kamala Harris is not helping, and this shows Biden's continued weakness in handling the invasion.
  2. Graham calls out the Biden administration for cheering Poland on about Ukraine using Polish Mig-29s without U.S. or NATO support, until Poland said they could fly out of Ramstein. Then it became too much of a risk.
  3. The U.S. constant vaciliation and folding is emboldening Russia.
  4. Graham states he thinks the Biden adminstration was betting on Russia winning, so they could go for a negotiated settlement (which Russia has already offered)
  5. That the administration is is more afraid of Russia losing, than hoping for Ukraine winning.
  6. Ukraine is holding out.
  7. The Biden adminstration has NO PLAN for Ukraine winning.

My reaction: If (big if) Ukraine holds out and wins without us, that will make the U.S. look weak for a second time internationally, and the sanctions will hurt the U.S. and world more than Russia. That would come back to really hurt the Democrats the next election. It will also hurt the chickenhawks and warmongers in the think tanks and federal civil service worse than losing Vietnam did. The U.S. actually fought the Vietnam war. We did not impose self destructive sanctions back then.

In this case, Graham is spot on here.

Your thoughts and comments?

Watch the price of gasoline and diesel.

No one with any brains is buying "The Putin Price Hike".

It's all "The Puppet Price Hike".

Graham ushered in Biden.

No Subpoenas in Four years as he protected the Biden’s.

The Jan 6th Committee issued more subpoenas in 5 mins than Graham did in 1,460 days!

Setting aside the content of her remarks, how about just coming across as serious, even somber? Her affect is all wrong, then gets added the idiocy of her remarks…

Exactly. Poland wants the US actively involved in this war.

And Heels-Up is just stupid enough to open her fat mouth and provoke such a war.

He needs to look in the mirror.

Lindsey Gacy Graham made things worse by calling for the assassination of the president of Russia. Perhaps Putin will return the favor.

Poland would love to be in the fight, if she knew it would be localized, but they know it would drag NATO in the fight, and they don’t want to be the scapegoat if the war expands.

They took a lot of heat for the start of WWII, they said, “Why didn’t they just give up Danzig? And why did they have to ally with Britain and France, when they knew it would just make Hitler angry?”

That's backwards.

Harris is following Blinken on the U.S. wants Poland or NATO to get directly involved without U.S. backing. NATO members are not taking the bait. Either they get U.S. commitment to action or they will not commit to any direct action operating from their own soil.

Kamala is amazingly incompetent and socially inept.
She makes teleprompter Baraq look like a true statesman.

A fine commentary on the state of California and the national Democrat party.

Everyone knows Biden can’t travel.

If he does there will be NO WAY they will be able to hide his dementia.

And the European media will NOT cover up for them.

So they’re stuck sending the jackass with the jackal laugh instead.

My thought is this: if Ukraine is serious about an air wing to help in this fight, they should be searching the third world for SU-25s, The soviet answer to the A-10 Warthog. The Su-25 is a proven and reliable weapon for tank busting and support of ground troops. An older subsonic low level weapon, Russia has still used it as late as last year in Syria. If Ukraine has any qualified SU pilots left over from Soviet days, this is what they need. Forget the Mig jousting matches, get some Sukhois out there and fire up those convoys.

You're selling Kamala short.

Her step-daughter is becoming a "supermodel"
