During the “America First” summit this week in D.C., Sen. Joni Ernst (R-IA) passionately demanded “that we absolutely annihilate the Russian forces, and we get them to crawl back into Russia so bloody and bruised that they can’t come back.”

At the same summit, Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL) said he had just returned from Ukraine and is now calling for the deployment of US military “advisors” directly into the war to operate US weapons systems alongside Ukrainian forces. “Let’s win this damn war!”

Now, there are even reports that British military “advisors” are already on the ground in Ukraine “Helping actually use the equipment” in combat.

We’ve seen these “advisors” in action before right before things get worse. Syria, Yemen, Libya, Vietnam and somehow each time they get involved the situations get more bloody and out of control.
