U.S. Senator Roger Wicker, R-Miss., who will soon be ranking member on the Senate Armed Services Committee, released the following statement in response to reports regarding the latest tranche of military aid to Ukraine:
“It is in our national interest to give Ukraine the tools it needs to defeat Vladimir Putin and end this war. President Biden is moving far too slowly. We need to lead from the front by providing more, better, and faster aid to Ukrainian troops. We can shift this war immediately in Ukraine’s favor by providing a range of advanced weapons, including tanks, drones, and tactical missiles.”

These warmongers are insane. Is the amount of money they are getting from the MIC worth nuclear war? Ukraine has already lost, and sending weapons will not change the outcome. It will just get more Ukrainians killed. Check out what Col. Macgregor says at the American Conservative or on youtube. Also, the New Atlas on youtube. Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe and its national hero, Bandera, was a notorious Nazi war criminal. They are dragging men, old men and young teens, off the streets and sending them to the front. Every DC politician who votes for funding this slaughter has blood on his or her hands. This all could have been prevented if the Soros deep state had not planned on destroying Russia years ago, and if the Minsk agreements had been enforced by European leaders.
