Many Veterans are not even aware of some of their entitlements. Veterans Help Group is prepared to help.

Whoever comes after Putin can't be any worse. The next Russian leader will inherit a wrecked military and a weakened economy. We should not be afraid of helping Ukraine to defeat Russia.

Looking forward to this today! Spirit of America is a very effective non-profit organizations, supporting USG efforts in trouble spots around the world. Spirit of America fills the gaps with effective non-lethal aid which US Dept of Defense can't reach, making a real impact.

'Ukraine’s position is grave, but if Kyiv and its American and European allies act decisively now, Ukraine can still win — and this means besting Russia on the battlefield,' write Garry Kasparov Garry Kasparov and Gen. Ben Hodges Ben Hodges cnn.com/2024/05/07/opi…

Zero benefit for Russia to use any nukes. Only benefit for them is when they threaten the use of nukes because they see how we overreact.

Some clarity for all the Doomers out there...thanks to Phillips P. OBrien Russia has had every advantage since the beginning yet they remain incapable of knocking Ukraine out of the War.

We should not be scared of Russia's collapse. Instead we should accelerate it by helping Ukraine regain its full sovereignty. Russia can become a normal country, living within its own borders. European security will be better for decades. Prepare for it, don't be scared of it.

Just getting started. Doomers like J.D. Vance have no real appreciation for the strength of American industry. It's in America's interest that Ukraine defeats Russia. This will fix European security for decades, will deter China, and will lead to the isolation of Iran.

Thanks to Kowal for sharing his analysis of the situation in Ukraine. Poland is not and never has been confused about the threat or who/what Russia is.

🤦‍♂️ what? We haven’t even tried to win yet. Why push Ukraine to accept less than total restoration of its sovereignty without us doing all we can to help them? 10 years, all the advantages, and Russia barely beyond Avdivka.

This is the way. Every new package of sanctions exposes how little was done before. It's a war. Isolate the warmakers and terrorists. Go after the middlemen and the 'neutral' profiteers. Close the loopholes and have penalties with teeth.

Yes! Economic tools are as important to defeating Russia as ATACMS or F16‘s!

RUS, IRN, CHI are parts of our strategic challenge. Ensure the defeat of Russia first which will isolate Iran and will deter China. Enforcing sanctions is a priority.

Excellent by Elisabeth Braw

Why do we tolerate this? Why do we act as if we don’t have the ability and tools to stop this dangerous behavior by Russia?

Powerful in its clarity and simplicity...terrific article about the importance of NATO and why it is still a success, despite the challenges.
