Got to drag this war out to at least November which is too bad for the poor Ukrainians needlessly dying for a lost cause. Hardly surprising that recruitment is down to almost zero and many more are refusing military service and trying to leave the country.

One would hope that the ammo is already palletized and ready to roll onto the back of a line of globe masters before the ink dries on Biden’s signature.
Hard times ahead for the Russian cannon fodder.

Is taxpayers’ money is literally wasted on payments to foreign countries when the U.S. border is as hokey as Swiss cheese.
Priorities?

This American approves. The US isn't being invaded like Ukraine is. There is no existential threat to the US from the southern border like there is in Ukraine.

Another "game-changer?"

Everything would be fine with promised weapons, but... There is no men in Ukraine to manipulate or to control it. It is reported that the AFU brigade, which defended Ocheretino (one of the directions of the Russian offensive in the Donetsk region), simply fled under the onslaught of the Russian army. This is the third brigade that has fled in two weeks - previously it was the 67th at Chasov Yar and the 115th at Avdeevka.

2 years plus and the battle lines has not changed.

Excellent news! Not for Russia of course. This means many more Russians going home in body bags to grieving mothers and wives.
Unfortunate, but that's what happens when you invade another country in order to steal their land.

In that case there will be no change for Moscow junta either. You'll still be bogged down in Ukraine for eternity.
How is your training going? When do you go to the frontline?
You are going to have to beg harder for their surrender.

Kremlin talking points.

Nothing will either.
Very true.
Absolutely.

The only way to save what is left of that country.

If Putin is not stopped in Ukraine he will enter other countries knowing the West and the US are powerless and weak to do anything.
TaiwanIsNotChina
And that's a great thing: chess grandmaster Putin will have been stopped in his tracks by #30 on the military expenditure list.
But weapons can, which is what is being sent.
Not enough when money can translate into enemy casualties. Also a stalemate is a win for Free Ukraine.
Nope, grandmaster Putin has yet to take a major city.
TaiwanIsNotChina
No changes is good for Free Ukraine. Russia has the junta with rebelling generals and everything.
It's good that there are weapons to send, then.
100k terrorist casualties is a good result.
Ukraine needs an unconditional ceasefire and Putin has to be forced into it.

This American also approves and is proud of our Congress, our Speaker, and our President.

For a $25T economy, amounts in the tens of billions are a rounding error.

By supplying Ukraine with arms. Not sure you're thinking this through...

They will still lose, so I am not getting your point.

China, Iran, and Balarus will send more aid to Russia to send more Ukrainians to bed as well.
He did? Did he withdraw?
Ukraine is Pretty much destroyed as a nation, it will take a generation to rebuild everything, so more American weapons and less refuge for Ukrainians would be a lot of displaced people.
I know for liberals that doesn't mean anything because it's not their money so what would they care?

Yeah, as usual, liberals are just not thinking deeply at all....sigh...

Ukraine's enemy is going head-on at them.
The US' enemies are sneaking in through the back door.
The Russians aren't shooting at us.
The terrorists are walking right into our country to wreak havoc on our people.
America first!

Sending weapons from the US is not the answer for World Peace
TaiwanIsNotChina
Belarus has little to send, and Ukraine already is weathering the mighty Iran. China doesn't want to be seen openly sending arms to Russia to fight its pathetic campaign and there are limits to what you can do covertly. Also none of those countries will be sending bodies to make the Russian mothers feel better.
Doesn't need to. You said stopped and his fascist campaign being stopped in place is enough to humiliate him.
Making declarative statements based on Faux News is not winning you arguments. Ukraine is exporting more and more grain through the now liberated Black Sea.
You don't care about Europe, though, and that is Europe's problem right? And they won't be displaced if the battle lines are stopped. There will be more ability for Ukrainians to stay home if the country remains free.
Liberals literally pay for your flyover states.

You have yet to explain how Russia will destroy Ukraine now when they have been trying to do so for two years. Time for me to sigh.
TaiwanIsNotChina
Not sending Russia packing is not the answer for world peace.
TaiwanIsNotChina
All the more reason they need to be supported.
Asylum seekers are not enemies.
Yet.
The FBI is quite good at surveilling threats. In any event, it takes $$$$ to seal the border and Republicans won't pony up.
zibala
Europe should fully support them. The US should also support them at the negotiating table.
So how would we stop Putin? Go to war? Really? Not sure you're thinking this through...
You thought this through? Help Ukraine by supplying them with more weapons so the war will continue and more Ukrainians will die in a losing battle?
bass4funk
Enough though as well as China has a lot.
And still losing.
That doesn't mean that because China doesn't want to be seen it is not helping Russia in some fashion. Don't be gullible.
How so?
Not just Fox News, but take your pick.
But you're taxing my money, I don't care, but I do care about my money.
Veeerry big "if"
A lot of minorities need help, this is very true...
How much is Russia's infrastructure has been destroyed and how much Of Ukraine's has been destroyed? Yes?
