This list is not easy to come by, despite dozens of articles with the broad news, you have to peel up the letter copy from the office of Joni Ernst to see the signatures. Here it is. These Senators are pushing President Biden to send Poland F-35's to replace their fighter jet squadron, and use NATO to send the older MIGs to Ukraine somehow, a move that is 100% guaranteed to cause the downing of them all by the Russian Air Force, both NATO and Ukrainian casualties in the air and land, and open warfare between NATO and Russia. They also want to send billions in light and heavy artillery, despite the fact that is a logistical impossibility without severe battles between NATO and Russia that would escalate into a Russian invasion of Poland and the Baltic states. - in other words, World War 3.
For World War 3, starting next week:
Joni Ernst, Mitt Romney, Mitch McConnell, Roger Wicker, Chuck Grassley, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, Lisa Murkowski, Ben Sasse, Ted Cruz, Marsha Blackburn, Rob Portman, Marco Rubio, Josh Hawley, Susan Collins, Kevin Cramer, Ron Johnson, Roger Marshall, John Boozman, Rick Scott, Pat Toomey, John Barrasso, John Kennedy, Shelley Moore Capito, John Hoeven, Deb Fischer, Steve Daines, John Cornyn, Richard Shelby, Todd Young, Bill Cassidy, Tommy Tuberville, John Thune, Cindy Hyde-Smith, Tim Scott, Richard Burr, Thom Tillis, Mike Braun, James Lankford.
Against:
Dan Sullivan, Mike Crapo, Jim Risch, Jerry Moran, Rand Paul, Roy Blunt, Jim Inhofe
