Mitch McConell says the quiet part out loud.

Exact full quote from CNN:

“People think, increasingly it appears, that we shouldn’t be doing this. Well, let me start by saying we haven’t lost a single American in this war,” McConnell said. “Most of the money that we spend related to Ukraine is actually spent in the US, replenishing weapons, more modern weapons. So it’s actually employing people here and improving our own military for what may lie ahead.”

Somewhat true (all costs is a troublesome term), but also disregards the rest of the issue

It really doesn't. American aggression is found around every corner if you look at thr history and impetus behind this conflict.

You're not making any sense. Unless you think that NATO encirclement, the Maidan coup, etc, are all Russian false flags?

[-] boredtortoise@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Nope.

Instead Russia basically forced multiple countries to join a war crime organization so they have even some safety

... NATO has illegally invaded and destroyed numerous countries. Russia has invaded Georgia when Georgia tried to join NATO as part of NATO's encirclement.
