Jack Keane on Trump’s 50 Days Sanctions Ultimatum to Russia: He’s Pivoting to ‘Take the American Taxpayer Off the Table’
RUSH EXCERPT:
KEANE: "Very much so. And I think in the priority is absolute correct in that s sse what Putin pays the most effects. When it comes toanctions he’ always been able to get around the sanctions to some degree the evidence is on his side but is not the sanctions the president is threatening to impose after the ultimatum of 50 days are not going to hurt Putin. They certainly are they are purported to be much tougher than what they have been in the past. Whwh ihappening on that battlefield truly matters to him him. A couple things have happened here in the last week that are significant. As we all know Wall Street Journal wereretarted reporting on if there was a pause in weapons delivery instigated by the Pentagon. The president publicly said I had nothing to do with that he made certain those weapons are continuing. What is meant going and this week after the pause is removed as a trainload of 155 artillery ammunition pack three missiles part of the patriot system, and gh marks which are at long range delivery missiles. All of which have been invaluable to the Ukrainians. The previous administration that military drawdown approved by cocoress and funded by the Congress. With theresident’s pivoting to hear a a clearly is a major point. That is increased assistanan by the billions of dodoars for the Ukrainians he wants to take the American taxpayer off the table of paying for this somemeing that could have been done in the Biden Administration and likely should have been done done. In this case that euro said feedback frorom that meeting tha took place last week, they told our government officials from their perspective money should be of no concern whatsoever. We have the money. So what is happening here, there are five patriot batteries scheduled to go to Switzerland g delayed other countries who will buy them from the united statess and then give them to Ukraine for use. And that is going to be the pattern for other weapon systems as well. I hope the president takes another step herand that is go after the frozen Russian assets worth about $300 billion the overwhelming majority of it being held by the Europeans and put pressure on them to release that for military assistanan as well as reconstruction. So yes the president’s delivery one — two punch year."
