  1. John Kirby: Ukraine can now use ATACMS for immediate self-defense, as seen in recent strikes on Kursk.

  3. The US made an early mistake by micromanaging Ukraine’s access to weapons. By giving permission for every escalation they they appear more as a puppeteer, falling into Putin’s narrative of a defacto war with the West. If they started out with the appearance of being an impartial vendor, and leaving the red lines to Ukraine, this war would have been over a year ago.

  4. Jesus Christ, better late than fucking never. The feckless Biden could have done this years ago.

  6. Why WHY are we announcing this. Why does this administration always announce what they are doing before they do it. Obama did the same. Let Russia figure it out for themselves. It would be weeks before they actually realize what’s going on. This is dumb founding, totally baffling. Stop announcing shit. Say what you will about Trump – but he didnt announce anything for his enemies. They just found out the hard way.

  7. US should allow Ukraine to use it in anyway they see fit. It’s not like Russia had set limitations on their weapons procured from other countries.

  8. Hopefully Ukrainians have a lot of ATACMS to use on the Russians. If not supply large amounts.

  10. You don’t need to confirm it with words, you can let the strikes tell the story.

  11. The US should have just said to Ukraine that they can use it to attack Russian targets, provided their actions comply with international law and the laws of warfare.

  12. Remember when Trump released 5000 of Afghanistans most dangerous Taliban fighters in the fall of 2019? And then negotiated a retreat from the US’s defense positions in the very same country in the very same month?

    Biden dropping some real-time payback in return, was likely waiting for the election to end to do it.

  13. Biden should give Ukraine a couple of nukes on his way out just in case.
