    weren’t at least some American fighting in Ukraine

    Dude. They’re literally running the war there. How can you be this uninformed?

    tying Biden to Ukraine it’s highly likely that any sizeable involvment would have been been discovered and made public by now.

    Haven’t you seen the video of him in Ukraine bragging about bribing the leadership to get his son off of a prosecution? I’ll root it out for you if you haven’t.

    No they’re just using the Ukrainians as cannon fodder.
