That\u2019s right, there have been American military personnel in Ukraine for a while now, even though the President promised us that we wouldn\u2019t send U.S. troops to Ukraine.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">They told the lie, mainstream media spread the lie, and now they are coping to the truth. But, unfortunately, mainstream media is burying the lede because they assume you are too dumb to notice.

The reason for the apparent need to increase the boots-on-ground footprint is twofold, if you pay attention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The first is the original reason for sending the additional troops back in November: to help inspect and ensure that our weapons are going to the Ukrainians and being used appropriately. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When this was first announced last month, our Pentagon verbal version of Fred Astaire <a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2022\/11\/01\/us-troops-checking-ukraine-weapons-delivery-sites-against-theft-threat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told reporters<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cWe\u2019ve been very clear there are no combat forces in Ukraine, no US forces conducting combat operations in Ukraine. These are personnel that are assigned to conduct security cooperation and assistance as part of the Defense Attache office.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">And this is what we call in the business of war \u2018mission creep\u2019. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It starts as no troops; then it evolves into troops in surrounding areas to help train the nation in question, then it becomes easier to go ahead and move those troops in to observe and inspect.

So hold on to your butts guys; it\u2019s about to creep forward further.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">What I want to know is all I hear is how the Ukrainians are doing a fantastic job pushing back the Russian forces and how President Vladimir Putin\u2019s days are numbered because he\u2019s sick and the oligarchs want him out. So why does Ukraine need our Patriot air-defense system if that\u2019s all true?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You won\u2019t see anyone else asking that question because that would make you a Russian propagandist.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/thepoliticalinsider.com\/report-reveals-u-s-governments-secret-wars-worldwide-some-even-hidden-from-congress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Report Reveals U.S. Government\u2019s \u2018Secret Wars\u2019 Worldwide, Some Even Hidden from Congress<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Tell Me Lies, Tell Me Sweet Little Lies<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Back in February, when Russia first invaded Ukraine, President Biden <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeednews.com\/article\/caitlinhernandez\/biden-us-troops-russia-ukraine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told reporters<\/a> over and over again:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cOur forces are not and will not be engaged in a conflict with Russia in Ukraine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">While we haven\u2019t been engaged in direct combat in Ukraine, you play into Biden\u2019s belief that you are gullible if you believe we haven\u2019t been involved in a conflict with Russia via proxy. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">And now that we do indeed have troops in Ukraine, Uncle Joe has slick-tongued General Ryder to help <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/now\/biden-admin-wants-boost-efforts-190000419.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">explain it all away<\/a>:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u201cThough the ODC (Office of Defense Cooperation) is embedded within the U.S. Embassy, it is staffed exclusively by DOD personnel.
