There is a place in Texas that refurbishes and maintains M1 Abrams Battle Tanks, and they also refurbish Helicopters there. A lot of the military industrial complex is headquartered in Texas. So naturally, the representatives from Texas are going to want the war machine to keep bringing in more money for their benefactors. The people are not represented so much as the corporations.
We could militarize our border in a day but that does not provide the cheap labor that the powers that be love. We have plenty of people coming in to replace the dying drug addled white kids that won’t be giving birth or having children due to indoctrinated white guilt. The reason why you shouldn’t trust politicians from Texas, is that they have a long history of doing things like helping kill presidents and operating the deep state from behind the scenes.
Update(1412ET): The Biden administration has said it will send 30 M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, in a significant breakthrough and escalation after weeks of debate, as well as division over the issue within the NATO alliance.
Politico's national security correspondents Alex Ward and Hans von der Burchard are further reporting that with the US ready to pull the trigger, Scholz's Germany has followed by approving Leopard 2 main battle tanks. Germany is planning to send 14 of its Leopard 2 A6 tanks to Ukrainian forces.
Ominously, this comes on the very same day that the war in Ukraine has pushed the Doomsday Clock to its closest point to midnight in history, as The Hill details:
Russia’s war in Ukraine has significantly raised the risk of global self-annihilation, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists warned Tuesday, moving forward the Doomsday Clock to its closest point to midnight ever.
The Doomsday Clock is meant to measure the gravest risks to human existence to pressure world leaders to recommit to addressing extinction-level challenges, such as the threat of nuclear weapon use, but has grown to include the dangers of climate change and biological risks such as the COVID-19 pandemic.
The clock has moved to 90 seconds before midnight, 10 seconds closer than when it was last set in January 2022, shortly before Russia launched its invasion against Ukraine on Feb. 24.
How long would it take to arrive? They say a C-5 can carry 2 M-1 tanks so that requires 15 round trips of those aircraft. They'll land in Poland, then need to be put on a truck or train and sent into Ukraine where they'll be targeted. Probably take at least 4 weeks to arrive and I'd expect half of them to never even make it to the front lines.
