Biden team prepares to rush last minute aid to Ukraine

We should give them enough gear to substantially weaken our own military.

The Dems need to learn to play dirty. Biden needs to de-fang his own office as much as possible in the next 2 months. And as official acts, he can do it with the Court’s blessing.

Stop taking the high road and burn the fucking White House down before Trump can take it back.

Gift the entirety of military resources not stationed in CONUS to NATO allies. If the plan was to try to strong-arm our allies for protection, literally take the ammo away.

Those NATO allies (Poland) don’t even intercept Russian missiles when they enter Polish air space. Belarus has a better track record of shooting down Russian drones.

Because they’ve been told by the US they’re not allowed to use their US supplied arms to do so. They’ve been asking for permission for at least a year. Refer also constraints placed on Ukraine

And as official acts, he can do it with the Court’s blessing.

You forget, the courts only would use that logic to help republicans and hinder democrats.

Precedent has no meaning to these fucks.

Well, he’s also like 4 heartbeats from death. Might as well go out with a bang.

Prepare a last minute assassination plan on Putin. Who else can do it if not the self described “greatest nation in the world”.

The true mask off over the past few months, honestly. They’re not even trying to not look like Tankies anymore.

You when you heard that someone tried to assassinate Adolf Hitler.

What mask? Everybody wants Putin dead.

What took them so fucking long?

why didn’t we do this before

It’s still the same as before and nothing on the level USA does for Israel where they happily intercept rockets for that rich, well armed count with an installed iron dome air defense.

Still no US air raids on Donbas and Crimea and such.

Maybe democrats expected a negative effect on the ballots because of it. Macron did something similar while running against le pen on last year? and released the package as soon as the ellection was settled

Because the military-industrial complex needed to slow-drip the weapons to make the war last as long as possible.

Until today, I’ve been thoroughly in favor of supporting Ukraine. Since Ukraine isn’t going to get any support from the next administration, rushing out a final aid package (if the current administration can even manage that) only seems like it will briefly delay Russia’s slow victory.

I’d like to be shown that I’m wrong. Please comment if you have an outlook that’s more positive than mine.

There is a tremendous amount of mostly empty Ukrainian land left. If Russia wants it all, their casualties will end in the millions, even without additional US aid. We’re not the only suppliers, after all.

I have one, hear me out: it looks like the current german gov will decide to give up and have early elections. Current polls suggest that Merz will become chancellor. On multiple occasions he criticized Scholz for his cautious approach and voiced his support for Taurus deliveries. Not sure if he will go through but I think he specifically mentioned Taurus so often and prominently that it won’t be easy to back pedal now. So it’s likely that Taurus (and with it the Kerch bridge?) is back on the menu.

(Imho he’s quite a shitty politician otherwise, but maybe he can get at least this right)

With the current Zeitgeist, I’m afraid of a landslide win for the AfD

But maybe I just lost hope…

Schwarz-Blau dem Fotzenfritz, klingt doch super

Well, we don’t actually know that the next administration won’t support them any. We assume they won’t because of Trump’s attitude to Ukraine, but the republicans have been somewhat divided over the issue, and Trump just does whatever he randomly feels like, and sending more military aid does benefit the MIC that can pay politicians, so it possible, if unlikely, that they’d get some support from them. There’s also the possibility of support from Europe or elsewhere in the world. Finally, while a Ukrainian loss without foreign support seems quite likely, the pace of Russia’s advances and resource expendature are such that a win for them is no longer likely to be “annex Ukraine or make it a puppet rump state”, but more “take a strip of land close to the current occupation line”, in which case a stronger Ukraine has a better negotiating position and so may be able to give up less.
