And this is why non Americans like me are tearing our hair out at the corruption and ineptitude your current government is wreaking upon the world. The Democrats have completely lost their way. Trouble is, they could lose everything for everyone. Kacklin' Kooky Kamala (or KKK) and her idiocy is distracting people from the fact that Sleepy Joe is still President, and I'm sure his involvement in the dirty Ukrainian weapons/money laundering biz is flying along nicely, without a scrap of media attention.
I don't care. I'm tired of having puppet strings pulled over announcements like "stronger, better, and more destructive weapons" given to Ukraine. Let the chips fall where they may. I'm ready for nuclear war. I don't care.
It is silly thing to ask if USA will give nuclear weapons to Ukraine. There are so many reasons why, none should be necessary to articulate.
Further, the only basis I can find for support of Putin’s kleptocracy is knee jerk following of Trumps support. Go talk to Russians who had their businesses stolen by simple threat of prosecution. Or who saw their institutions gutted by theft committed by Putin’s chain of associates. There is nothing good about Putin’s Empire.
"While depleted uranium munitions are not considered nuclear weapons, their emission of low levels of radiation has led the United Nations nuclear watchdog to urge caution when handling and warn of the possible dangers of exposure. "
"Studies of those exposed to radiation from the atomic bomb blast at Hiroshima showed that for those who received a whole-body dose of 4,500 mSv, about 50 percent died from acute radiation poisoning. By way of comparison, the average natural background radiation in the United States is 2.6 mSv."
"... not only is depleted uranium potentially dangerous because of its radioactivity, it is also a strong toxin. "If there are effects, it would seem to me that the radiation effects would be the smaller of the two," adds Brenner, a specialist in the biological effects of radiation."
There have bee tens of millions of shells used in the last 2.5 years - I don't know how many have used DU.in the last year or the last 2.5 years."
"In a normal setting, a person is exposed to between one and three millisieverts (1Sv = 1,000 mSv) per year. If you were to stand about three feet from 1 kilogram of DU for one year¿ the equivalent of about three A-10 shells you would be exposed to about one millisievert per year."
700 miles of front lines, - around 10 miles wide, "x" million DU shells so far annd many more to come, it could be argued that there is already a nuclear war gpoing o, so we are talking about escalation, not absence of radiation weapons.
Hey Dick, my govt is taking close to 60% of the fruits of my labor. Theft, corruption, inflation, debt, murder, destruction of our Constitution and our middle class by my govt is ok, right. Talk is cheap. Things get real when the Russian boogeyman bases nu_es in Cuba and subs or an illegal deploys a dirty.

Nuking Russia's two main cities:
Does anyone else think this is a really bad idea?
For decades. USA foreign policy had been like children throwing sand.
Poke the Bear, Poke the Bear, then wonder one of these days why something goes
B O O M !
Next war, send all the politicians & agitators from behind the scenes with my blessing. Supply them with helmets & note pads.
What a shit show we're living in.

Mmmmm. Delivery in time to just prior to elections???
