President Joe Biden could deploy up to 50,000 US troops as well as aircraft and warships to eastern Europe to counter a Russian military build-up that has sparked fears Vladimir Putin is about to invade Ukraine.The plan would see between 1,000 and 5,000 soldiers sent to NATO nations such as Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia, which border Russian territory.Troop numbers could then be increased up to 50,000 if the security situation deteriorates, backed up by fresh deployments of ships and aircraft. Pentagon officials presented the plan to Biden during a summit at Camp David

I wonder if the Taliban will let us borrow back some of that 85 billion dollars worth of military equipment. /s

Joe should never have taken troops off the table. it's late in the game now. i can't think of worst negotiators--except maybe present-day Germans. 50,000 is a joke.

Just pray that he steps down before all h3ll breaks loose. Hope that someone goes into the oval office or his Delaware house and tells him he must go and be replaced before he starts World War III.

The war will be over before the first company is loaded into a plane. Putin has been building up for MONTHS. Brandon thinks that he can snap his fingers and Telenor 50,000 troops to defend against 200,000. Oh.....and that 200,000 has no supply chain issues.

If Biden is removed using 25th Amendment, we are stuck with Kamala. This is a real dilema. If we let Joe join Jimmah Carter in retirement, then we have a hysterical, cackling Kamala facing Putin in a war while she joins woke DAs in releasing massive numbers of violent criminals from jail to attack us in our homes while our defenders are in Europe.

If Biden thinks his polling numbers are low now, just wait until he deploys troops to Ukraine or Eastern Europe. Preemptive sanctions that hurt Putin are needed now, not after the invasion by Russia. Biden and Blinken are incompetent fools.

#4, The problem is if Joe steps down his replacement is worse. We are on the brink of war with Russia with no leader, our military stripped of warriors and generals who believe that breaking things and destroying the enemy is “not who we are”. Incompetent does not begin to describe the lot that did not fight to leave Afghanistan with all our people and equipment intact. Any kid in ROTC in high school knew that decision was a disaster in the making. We are well and truly messed up to the point that whatever Biden or even his successor does puts the whole country at risk. Facing off with Russia with this lot of fools? My goodness, it is a disaster. We are being held captive not only by an illegitimate administration but a totally incompetent one. I just want to say one thing to those weak Republicans who refused to stand strong with President Trump when it was clear the election was stolen, that one decision has caused every bit of misery we have suffered this past year. Evil men stole what they could not win and cowardly indifference allowed them to succeed. All it took was a little pressure from the media and anti-Trumpers and Republican support vanished. Look what you have wrought.

That's the ticket. Send troops to eastern Europe so people will be distracted and not notice empty store shelves, high inflation, pandemic lies, illegal jailing of people in Washington D.C., government corruption, and the southern border invasion.

Send 50k transgender woke troops that would make the Russians drop dead from laughter. Serious? Joe Biden is going defend the border of a corrupt s**thole country the size of California from the Russians. Laughter out loud on this one when our own southern border is wide open. One American soldier's life is not worth this. Medals Milley better give Joe a good shaking and talk him out of this one. Joe Biden is flirting with disaster or maybe Klaine (the real poser president) is. Let's go Brandon.

Wouldn’t it be better to transfer Hunter Biden’s Burisma contract to Putin’s family or girlfriend? Plus there surely are other Ukrainian companies plus the government which would each pay Putin’s family $1 million a year for no show jobs in Kiev. In hindsight, the Ukrainian government should have done more in 2017-2019 to reveal the level of Joe Biden’s corruption with Burisma and Hunter. Now it faces a truly “big guy” on its border while Joe Biden continues to hide his 10% from Burisma,

The pandemic no longer will allow their total control so now they will incite a war. Biden will then declare a national emergency and declare Marshal Law. Then he will cancel elections for November because of the danger to our democracy and all will remain the same. Dems really have no intention of losing power. They do not care about the low polls because they never intend to have an honest election again. They do not play fair or care about the American people.

Biden thinks he can send troops anywhere without Congressional approval, or support of the U.S. citizenry. Biden will find out soon enough that Congress is not going to fund this. NATO is not going to help at all. Our military has been decimated by pushing out those not vaccinated or replacing merit with diversity. The military we have now is going to sit down, slow down. They may obey the orders, but it will be without any heart. Who wants to die for Biden? The Russians will only laugh. The Germans sent a million and a half troops, and that didn't work out, did it? There is no way we can support a supply line to Ukraine, and Putin knows it. Only Biden doesn't.

Plainly stupid, but then Biden is "Leader of the Free Loaders" and has to do something. The choice here is really simple: NATO backs down and says no to Ukraine membership, or war over Ukrainian sovereignty. NATO certainly won't fight as it is woefully unprepared and unwilling. Which leaves the USA, and the warmongers who are just spoiling to take on the Russkies, the Chinese, the NoKors and anyone else they think worthy of a nuke or two.

As Biden and the Democrats have welcomed the invasion of millions of illegals across our southern boarder, he now proclaims that the US and NATO must prevent the invasion of Ukraine's boarder by Russia. We, of course, would like to see a peaceful diplomatic solution, BUT, to get things off to a bad start, the right to have Ukraine join NATO is non-negotiable though we might not object to a "minor" incursion of Ukraine by Russia. Let's consider the facts. 1. The other NATO countries have no desire to have Ukraine join NATO.. 2. We have no strategic interest in having Ukraine join NATO. 3. Unwise alliances lead to World War I as a result of a single assignation. Do we really want to recreate circumstances for history to repeat itself?

Call me paranoid, but I fear the purging of the US military will continue, with professional war-fighters who are patriots being replaced by commie wannabes fresh from the universities and other pestilential funk-holes. I'll bet big money that most American citizens abandoned in Afghastlistan fit the Republican voter profile. We all know about the military purges of the un-vaxxed, mostly professional war-fighters who are patriots. Next up? Taiwan or Ukraine. Or both. The way will be led by the professional military of today, largely made up of professional war-fighters who are patriots. A phone call or nine by such as Thoroughly Milquetoast MIlley to the CCP and/or Putin's military outlining our battle plans in detail will ensure that a large number of professional war-fighters who are patriots are eliminated, to be replaced after the humiliating defeats, by reliable demorat zombies, and the patch on their shoulder says WOKE. They may be incompetent, but they owe allegiance to the party. And, they will be good enough for internal control and the "wet work" it requires.

How many children of the big shot leftist, progressive, and socialist DC Democrats is Biden going to send to Eastern Europe to stop the Russian military from invading Ukraine? You better believe that the Democrats will not answer that question. Now Biden’s minions are claiming that the US troops are not going to enter Ukraine, but will be deployed to the Eastern European NATO countries to protect those countries from the Russians. But currently Putin and the Russians do not appear to be interested in invading those NATO countries, as almost all of the 127,000 Russian troops are deployed along the Russian-Ukraine borderline with the obvious target of the Russians being Ukraine, where Biden’s crew says they are not sending any US troops. Is this another Biden crew and military-industrial complex “snow job” on the American people?

This looks more and more like Biden's Afghanistan gig. Joe doesn't want Ukraine to be okay, as that country had had , for a long time, the goods on his son and family. Joe would like Ukraine to go away. This is so obvious, by Joe's being so late at the party, now, by his comments this week, saying yea, Russian will win in the Ukraine, by his sneers to Britain, again, our main ally over there, by his idiot video call planned today with the E.U. (REALLY??), by his closing an embassy in Ukraine that is far from a thus far only feared incursion. Not an ounce of strategic awareness in his whole body. Just venality.

Re # 1, we should have sent all that equipment to the Ukraine to begin with. When we withdrew from Afghanistan discussions were already in the works about Russian invasion etc. Having a moron in the WH who can barely manage 20 words without messing that up he and his clown administration could not handle more than one disaster for the world to see. From what I read today it appears the first corrupt moron was mad that the Ukraine was not paying his corrupt son any more bribes. So, he obviously was not even thinking about the Ukraine as a 'situation' that has to be dealt with, but he gave the Russians the green light to amass their troops in front of the Ukrainian border. I guess the first incompetent moron needs to look for new pastures that 'pay' his son!

A foreign journalist challenged White House press secretary Jen Psaki Thursday to explain whether “America is back,” given the Biden administration’s many foreign policy failures.Biden has repeatedly used the phrase “America is back” to claim success in foreign policy, based on the partisan claim that President Donald Trump had withdrawn from the world, despite his diplomatic successes and the lack of war during his tenure.Psaki cited Biden’s “engagements” with other governments and his work in “rebuilding our relationships” with allies, which were allegedly “frayed” by the prior administration.Transcript via the White House:

It has been two years since the world first noticed people were getting sick and dying from a novel coronavirus that originated in Wuhan, China. As the seriousness of the disease became more apparent, policymakers around the world struggled with how to respond.Eventually, many leaders settled on policies of draconian lockdowns and restrictions in an effort to stop the spread of the virus. As these restrictions dragged on for months and years, some leaders trimmed their sails; some changed course completely. But most policy makers failed to keep in mind the fundamental axiom of governing, most pithily stated by Thomas Sowell: there are no solutions, there are only trade-offs.

President Joe Biden announced on Thursday that Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer is retiring after four decades, and his successor will be a black woman, which he will nominate by the end of February.“Choosing someone to sit on the Supreme Court I believe is one of them most serious constitutional responsibility a president has.

At the top of their home page, PolitiFact begs for donations by proclaiming "Our only agenda is to publish the truth so you can be an informed participant in democracy." But this "independent fact-checker" routinely betrays a tilt by coming out more aggressively to “correct” rhetorical or factual attacks on Democrats.At the end of Biden’s first 100 days, we reported our study of PolitiFact found they published 13 fact checks of the president, and 106 fact checks of the president’s critics. In other words, they’re much more sensitive about someone “lying” about Biden than they are about Biden lying. Now, after reviewing Biden’s first year, a NewsBusters study shows

Meanwhile, thousands of miles away, Vladimir Putin picks up the phone and gives the “go” order to his generals outside Ukraine… Coupla real gut punches for Democrats in this new data from Monmouth. Biden has reached the lowest job approval of his presidency in their polling to date, crossing the political Mendoza line by falling from 40 percent last month to 39 now. Republicans also lead 51/43 on the generic ballot, an all but unheard of advantage for the GOP at this stage

The truth is that the Second American Civil War is...almost over. Unlike the first one, the Democrats appear to be a near lock to win. Leftists, through a combination of brilliant projectionist strategy and callously evil use of their political opponents' naïveté, decency, and tolerance, have transformed America's institutions. They have weaponized them and used them against their less aggressive fellow citizens. In the process, they have transformed Americans, their beliefs and expectations, too. Much like the Chinese Communist Party, they own nearly all the levers of influence and power
