"This is another step up the escalation ladder, and no one knows where this is going," Rep. Michael Waltz, R-Fla., Trump’s incoming national security adviser, said on Fox News.
"No one anticipated that Joe Biden would ESCALATE the war in Ukraine during the transition period. This is as if he is launching a whole new war," Ric Grenell, Trump’s former acting director of national intelligence, wrote on X, formerly Twitter. "Everything has changed now – all previous calculations are null and void. And all for politics."
"On his way out of office, Joe Biden is dangerously trying to start WWIII by authorizing Ukraine the use of U.S. long range missiles into Russia," said Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., on X. "The American people gave a mandate on Nov 5th against these exact America last decisions."
Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., called the authorization an "impeachable offense." "By authorizing long range missiles to strike inside Russia, Biden is committing an unconstitutional Act of War that endangers the lives of all U.S. citizens.

Where are the Ukrainian Partisans?
Is Xoe trying to ensure his legacy...
...or to keep the kickbacks flowing to “the big guy”?
Either choice deserves a berth at Gitmo and daily waterboarding.
As president elect, can Trump initiate foreign relations contacts with Ukraine? If so, he should warn Zelensky that any missle fired into Russia will result in the remainder of congressional aid consisting of blankets and whatever else Obama sent them.
Why do they refer to Joe Biden? It’s more sinister than that - it’s an unknown person at this point.
Hysteria, from MTG in particular.
Putin’s ego is too large to admit to any serious damage these may do. And in fact, at best Ukraine can only slow Russian logistics and force the Russian Air Force to operate from deeper in Russia. No serious damage - no logic to launch WW3.
IF the US, UK, etc., could supply, say, 500 of this capability missile per month, indefinitely, that might be a different story.
There’s no way Joe is the one who ordered this. Remember that he recently headed off for a walk in the woods. These orders came from higher up.
It’s called Scorched Earth.

Reminder; Just one Hiroshima sized nuke over a city like Chicago would cause more burn victims than all the burn centers in the USA are equipped to handle. The average tactical MIRV is 50KT. That’s about 5X Hiroshima. City Busters are 330KT+.
People talk about WW3 like it’s just another war. It’s all over if the chosen few go to the shelters. Finis.
“risking”???
They’re provoking.
“The Military Industrial Complex seems to want to make sure they get World War 3 going before my father has a chance to create peace and save lives. Gotta lock in those $Trillions. Life be damned!!! Imbeciles!” Donald Trump Jr., the president-elect’s son, wrote on X.
Alex and Georgy Schwartz/Soros need to not be here anymore
If Joe ran in 2016, he’ll probably beat Trump.
The Joe Biden who walked away from.the mike into the rainforest is incapable of such decision making. The tycoons and robber barons were often acvused of being the power behindvthe oval office in the 1870s and 80s, even up to TR. But this is something very different and very scary.
President Putin: What we are seeing is an attempt to substitute notions. Because this is not a question of whether the Kiev regime is allowed or not allowed to strike targets on Russian territory. It is already carrying out strikes using unmanned aerial vehicles and other means. But using Western-made long-range precision weapons is a completely different story.
The fact is that – I have mentioned this, and any expert, both in our country and in the West, will confirm this – the Ukrainian army is not capable of using cutting-edge high-precision long-range systems supplied by the West. They cannot do that. These weapons are impossible to employ without intelligence data from satellites which Ukraine does not have. This can only be done using the European Union’s satellites, or US satellites – in general, NATO satellites. This is the first point.
The second point – perhaps the most important, the key point even – is that only NATO military personnel can assign flight missions to these missile systems. Ukrainian servicemen cannot do this.
Therefore, it is not a question of allowing the Ukrainian regime to strike Russia with these weapons or not. It is about deciding whether NATO countries become directly involved in the military conflict or not.
If this decision is made, it will mean nothing short of direct involvement – it will mean that NATO countries, the United States, and European countries are parties to the war in Ukraine. This will mean their direct involvement in the conflict, and it will clearly change the very essence, the very nature of the conflict dramatically.
This will mean that NATO countries – the United States and European countries – are at war with Russia.

FJB: hold my geritol...
This is a last ditch effort to throw sand in the gears for Trump, setting up a whole unnecessary problem for him to contend with. Despicable behavior from a repulsive scumbag.
