Are there any patriotic Americans left in the armed forces? Or just treasonous tools of the slavers on the Potomac pursuing a globalist, anti-American agenda?

I would bet that we have troops on both sides of that border.

“Their goal is to cut off all Ukrainian access to the sea, leaving the country and its military forces landlocked.”

That is what this is all about.
That is why we tolerate Turkey. They can “land lock”
all of southern Asia and European Asia.

Ocean access is key to wealth and power.

“We’re ready to defend every inch of NATO soil,”

Weird how America defends foreign borders but not its’ own. Truly one of the great paradoxes in geo politics

General Milley and Sec Def Lloyd Austin should hold a great LGBTQ pride gala including an international drag competition with our allies.

That would show Russia just who they are going to face in battle.

Reinforcing a Romanian border, but not the United States southern border. as millions power in just like — oh, hmm — an invasion. The Biden regime seems bent on war, with a nuclear power over a non-NATO nation.

First sentence rather dramatic with “deployed to Europe for the first time in almost 80 years. That’s not true, the division deployed to Germany for Reforger in 1976.

Hi. I hate to nit pick our great unbiased journalist, but...

“The U.S. Army’s 101st Airborne Division has been deployed to Europe for the first time in almost 80 years “

Didn’t both the 82nd and 101st participate in a REFORGER in ‘80 or ‘81? It was very cold in Germany at that time. Trust me.

Nevermind, Orwell was a prophet.

Good to see the 101st Airborne in Romania to help our allies against the same cancer that spread into Europe and threatened us the last time. Don’t bow to nuclear blackmail from a terrorist state.

Dear God, this administration has lost its mind.

My son is a (retired) Screamin’Eagle. This is madness. Whether it’s Marines or Soldiers- we do NOT belong there. I can’t stand Putin OR Zelensky or any of what they’re up to. We’ve been paying billions of dollars to one madman to keep another madman from playing a senseless ugly game. I despise them both and our government that’s subsidizing them..

Am I a conspiracist thinking the Deep State won’t dismiss using a war to stay power? Bil Clinton comes to mind.
