Republicans attack Graham's attempt to pass resolution to push Ukraine's admission into NATO

Vladimir Putin

It's likely that Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) is secretly working for the vast military complex or perhaps a weapons manufacturer, which is basically the same thing. The one main bargaining chip Ukraine has with Russia is the NATO issue and if somehow Graham succeeds in getting Ukraine into NATO, that could spell World War Three--and that isn't hyperbole.

Republicans in both the House and Senate are livid that Graham would push such a militaristic scheme of passing such a bipartisan resolution. Putin would have no choice but to go guns-a-blazing and one cannot even blame him.

Graham tweeted that he thinks there is "overwhelming" support for his proposal in the Senate. He claimed that Ukraine's membership in NATO is "vital to the future security of Europe and the world."

"I will be working with Republicans and Democrats in the Senate to pass a resolution urging the admission of Ukraine into NATO," Graham said of the effort. "The best way to prevent future wars and promote peace is to create security guarantees that make aggressor nations think twice before starting wars."

On the contrary--Ukraine's membership in NATO, at the very least, is a deal-breaker for peace in the region.

"Ukrainian NATO membership is vital to the future security of Europe and the world. I believe there is an overwhelming majority of Senators supporting this proposition," the hawkish senator added.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) went after Graham's proposal in a Friday evening tweet, insisting that it is "exactly wrong" and warning that it has the potential to lead the United States into a war with Russia. Rand is correct.

"Absolutely not. This is exactly wrong – as usual – and could very well lead us to war with Russia, something no one should want," Paul said in response to a tweet from Graham.

Not Vladimir Putin

Graham also drew backlash from House Republicans.  Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), tweeted: "I'm sure Lindsey Graham knows this, but this would mean American troops on the ground in Ukraine."

"Dangerous rhetoric from warmonger Graham, whose foreign policy track record means you'd be well advised to do the opposite of what he proposes," Mollie Hemingway posted in a tweet.

But Graham's boots stay home while his bank account grows.

An ardent supporter of Ukraine's defensive efforts and a stolen valor liar, Graham traveled with Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) to Kyiv last summer.

During the meeting on the 134th day of the war, Zelenskyy,[wearing his favorite John Fetterman-inspired gym attire], "called on senators to back the decision on providing Ukraine with modern air defense systems," according to his office.

So called President Biden read the teleprompter this week saying that he believes now is not the time for Ukraine to join NATO. But everyone knows that Biden couldn't find it on a map. Hell, he probably couldn't find his butt with both hands.
