At some point a serious discussion is going to have to be had on Ukraine. How long do we just keep sending them money? Their only way to victory is if Putin quits and withdraws (not gonna happen) or if they can force Russia out (also not gonna happen).

So what is the endgame here?

We’re not in to win. We just want to bleed Russia dry and hopefully get a draw. We’re probably getting 10-to-1 on our money by letting Ukraine keep up the fight. This is basically another Russian Vietnam (Afghanistan was the first). Afghanistan was so bad for the USSR that the country ended up collapsing.

This also keeps Russia too occupied to run election interference campaigns.

The Senate just quietly passed the Section 702 Foreign Surveillance ACT, that was about to expire. The Democratic held Senate Passed the bill 60-34 and Biden signed it into law. FYI, the Act is not really about the surveillance of foreign people and entities, as the Executive branch already has full authority to surveil and spy on foreign entities. Its about spying on YOU.

Russia quits when they have no more men to throw into the meat grinder

 

[Maximus Rex]

yeah, but we don't pay for that either

we're 35 trillion in debt, and it gets worse everyday. this interest rate hike/inflation problem is the first real kick in the ass we've gotten in a while

Like US Debt is a real thing, people like you think there is some boogeyman gonna come knocking at the US doors asking for money
