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

Polish deputy prime minister says otherwise:

By asking Poland to shoot down Russian missiles over Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky is attempting to get Warsaw involved in the war, Polish Deputy Prime Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski said in an interview with Radio ZET on Nov. 4. https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-wants-to-drag-poland-into-war-with-russia-polish-deputy-pm-claims/

It's a choice by the Polish.

Hmm thanks for that, I read some very different messaging over the last year. I'll try to dig it out

There is also the issue of

  1. Batteries protecting major cities.

  2. Munitions being limited.

  3. What can be shot down depends on the altitude. See point 1.

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.
