The USA has plenty of rare earths.

At this moment, only one mine, in California, is in operation.

Processing has all been sent overseas, mainly to China - because California and NIMBY environmentalists don’t like having metallurgy and chemical plants anywhere near them (and also, they hate humanity and human progress)

Let’s fix that first.

What kind of rare earth items are available in what will be left of Ukraine is the question.

But, yes, Ukraine must pay us back for the money Biden wasted on this failed proxy war.

Does anyone want to tell Trump that the rare earth minerals are now all in land that is controlled or soon to be controlled by Russia. There ain’t going to be much left for Ukraine to pay back its debts.

Trump says he wants Ukraine to supply US with rare earths

OK, we can just march in there and take 'em all.

All them Uke Nazis, Zelensky and Zeepers can be arrested for their crimes and sentenced to Restitutional Labor to work in the mines, and work off their debt to America.

When we leave, we will leave the Uke workers there, and they will have plenty of skilled workers to rebuild.

There must be some way that the Ukes can earn their way forward beside dying on the warfront. One way is to replace Zelensky.

Most of those minerals are in the Russian Speaking provinces of Ukraine I believe, so Trump will have to deal with Putin.

President Trump, While you’re collecting from the Ukraine please send a bill to every country that America has defended and secured since World War I.
The New External Revenue Service can handle it.
Billions plus interest for all those years.
