aynrandfreak: "I’m against the open-ended funding they want now.
I think we need to have publicly-stated war aims as the next order of business.
What is the goal; regime change in Russia?
Back to the 2022 border?"

It sounds to me like you are exactly right.
Sadly, our Democrats are all too quick to jump into wars, often without a plan for victory, then they fight until "war weariness" sets in before disgracefully abandoning our allies as we did in, for examples, Vietnam and Afghanistan.

Such American fecklessness only encourages the world's bad actors to behave their worst, as we now see in Ukraine and elsewhere.

Your words here reflect my opinion and those of House Speaker Johnson just last month.
A plan for victory was his first demand and strict accountability for aid sent to Ukraine was his second.

So far as I know today, neither concern has been seriously address by the Biden administration.

This could lead us to the worst possible of outcomes, though I sincerely hope not.
