True, but what would happen if Russia hits that group with a chemical weapon and kills them. It’s one thing to *wink *wink “know” we have soldiers over there fighting and another to have them put Twitter videos of them helping(probably leading) a force that destroys a bunch of tanks and retaking a town.

Too much pressure from the west here may cause Putin to do something really irrational if our soldiers really start having an effect and pushing the Russians back.

We have had green berets involved for some time now. This is what they specialize in. Training ally forces to fight efficiently and affectively without us firing a single shot. I can assure you the Russians know our involvement. The Ukraine forces have courage and guts aplenty but much of their success has our stamp on it
 
Sharing a story and twitter feed a U.S. Army veteran that went to Ukraine. One of his pictures was shared earlier in this thread. He is sharing frequent updates on Twitter.

I mean lets look at the source of this.....I give this a 97% chance of being BS anti Biden crap. This guy seems to be the only one saying it.

Right because CNN sources or any other left leaning media outlet are the gospel. The idea that nothing from a conservative can ever be right is so obnoxiously annoying but you know tolerance and open mindedness

No there are plenty of crappy liberal sources that get it wrong....its just this particular source is known for being anti Biden.....and wrong a lot.
 
There is no good reason for Ukraine to agree to any deal right now that would cede any amount of territory to Russia. They have successfully defended themselves and are turning to the offensive in some areas. That alone makes the above report questionable.

Plus, the conventional wisdom seems to be that the longer this goes the weaker Russia becomes.

Right. What they are posting at times is equivalent to me posting a mother jones article. If you noticed nobody post mother Jones cause we all know what It is.

This is 100% something Joe Biden would do, especially when nothing positive goes his way and of course for selfish reasons. If it is true Zelensky should politely tell grandpa to go @#$* himself. The only deal I would cut is you getting your backsides out of Ukraine before I kill more of your soldiers

Wasn't Zelensky the one inviting Biden to Kyiv right before the invasion and Biden telling him to prepare for impact? Serious gaslighting going on.
 
So wait. Tucker parrots Putin in primetime while other personalities on the network think Biden should do more to fight the war. This is why I stopped watching all of these "news" networks long ago. They all have their own biases and are trash, in my opinion.

What does "brace for impact" even mean?....Is that supposed to be some earth shattering revelation with a Russian army staging at your border? I have no idea what Zelensky will do if this is even true. I'm telling you this is a typical Joe Biden move (Political) when things aren't going well for him at home. Biden has nothing to lose here, Zelensky does. Any meetings, invitations or in between conversations since before the invasion have zero to do with the current situation.

Tucker Carlson isn't reporting news. His show is his opinion just like Hannity. They promote fair and balanced right? Well this is exactly what fair and balanced means.

Ukraine opened it's borders to anyone willing to fight. The world has known since the beginning that there were many US citizens in Ukraine fighting.

As for the second line, after Ukraine's defenses were obliterated in Crimea in 2014, US Special Forces undertook a training regimen for Ukraine forces, hence the night and day difference between the 2 conflicts. Putin already knew our involvement.
