The Pentagon announced the 8,500 troops are US-based and stressed there was no plan to deploy them at this time, but that they would be ready in case the NATO Response Force was activated.
'It’s very clear the Russians have no intention right now of de-escalating,' DoD spokesman John Kirby said.

How many US troops are stationed in Germany for the express purpose of guarding against a Russian move? This is just virtue signaling as a deterrent, and means nothing. But the real deterrent’s been in place for several donkey years.
US based...can be in Europe in how long???
This whole thing is a load of shite. Putin isn’t going to invade, Brandon knows it but needs to sell it to the public so he can “ take credit” for avoiding war. He’s polling numbers are tanking so he needs to create a “victory “.
Naturally the media and the rest of pop culture will be at the ready to spin this as a victory. China on the other hand is something to be concerned about.
Obvious wealth transfer(s) happening, lately, eh?
Can we spare 8500 troops from guarding the Congress against “insurrectionists” who daily threaten to attack that MARXIST citadel of treason?
Correction: should say “protecting Pelosi’s “fascist kingdom” from American citizens who are tired of her authoritarianism and treason”.
The Democrat Party is her MARXIST vessel for her totalitarian policies. She’s a Mussolini-accolade.

Biden’s war.
Turn your backs, the border is open and we are being invaded from the south and nothing is done
Let’s spearhead this with our transgender military members!
I hope he deploys the “rooty tooty, fresh and fruity” boys and girls.
How about the sane people that remain just NO to the demented fool?
Wouldn’t be the first time this country rounded up those considered a threat!
Tagline.
Question: what is at King’s Bay GA, and how high a target priority would that be?
Submarine base. Extremely high priority.
Welp. I’m screwed.
I’ve been arguing the same thing. There will be no “incursion.” They are trying to make Biden look like a wartime President. Probably a Bay of Pigs angle how he forced Putin to back down.
“A great many FReepers will reflexively back Biden if this comes to pass.”
I for one will not!
Deploying to the three Baltic republics is crazy. It could easily create a 21st century Dunkirk. Belarus provides an easy path to encirclement of an army cut off with it’s back to the sea.
