And the whole point of it is to blow up when Ukraine would really, it would blow up on the Russians if you were to put it to them too.

Yeah.

This administration is material, man.

I mean, we'll go from the Ukrainians are cut off with intelligence sharing to, you know, we think they can get back all Ukraine and then maybe some more in Russia.

So it also is wildly.

So I'm not I'm not confident in particular.

But what what I am confident of is that.

The Russians are not going to end this war anytime soon.

I'm confident that they're stringing us along.

And I'm confident that in order to actually have a conflict termination, you have to have a negotiating position where they're close enough as we're on here.

Look, the administration at this point really isn't giving freebies to Ukraine anymore.

We don't send them military aid anymore.

It's all under the rubric of sales, financed by the Europeans primarily.

So at this point, it's actually a money-making adventure for the Americans.

So it's not charity.

The real thing is, even if the Europeans don't pay for it, would we turn off intelligence sharing, intelligence that we're already collecting ourselves for European command with the Ukrainians, which would be very bad.

I mean, a lot of Ukrainian civilians will die from the nightly air raids if we're not giving them the intelligence about that.

And because we collect it anyways, it would be really capricious to turn that off.

So it's my hope that we wouldn't do that.

It's my hope also that the Europeans will do the right thing
