These are new attempts to push the same basic lie we have been fed since Russia invaded Ukraine in early 2022: that sending money and weapons to the Ukrainian government is in our national interest.
Continuing to send tax dollars and resources to the Ukrainian government is not in the interest of the American people.
As outlined in this article by Kyle Anzalone, there were four opportunities before the February 2022 invasion for the American and Ukrainian governments to work out their tensions with the Russian government peacefully.
The US government and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies acted like they could weaken Russia and improve Kyiv's leverage in negotiations down the road by waging a proxy war through the Ukrainian government.
Now the failures of the long-hyped Ukrainian counteroffensive have forced some US officials to admit that the best opportunities for Ukraine to negotiate have already passed.
The war in Ukraine has been fruitful for the weapons industry and the politicians on the receiving end of their lobbying.
If the political leadership of the West does not work to end this conflict, things are guaranteed to get even worse, and no one will suffer more than the Ukrainian people.
