Naked links are less than useless. We have have news readers. If it isn't meaningful enough to you to comment or make an analysis, 100% is isn't meaningful to us either.

Sorry about that.

I was out on my cellphone and in this format had a few tools to use.
This possible change in policy out of the admin might be useful...if it happens.

Price hike on US weapons sales to Europe may pay for American 'air cover' for Ukraine, Treasury says

Donald Trump has ruled out US boots on the ground in Ukraine as part of security guarantees.

However, the administration has said that the US could provide air cover in the future.

One top official said a price hike on the sale of US weapons to Europe could finance this support.

The Trump administration is selling weapons to European countries for an added profit. A top official has suggested that the money could finance American air cover for Ukraine as part of future security guarantees.

"Right now, we are selling arms to the Europeans, who are then selling them on to the Ukrainians," Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent said in an interview with Fox News on Wednesday.

Donald Trump used the phrase "air support", not "air cover," to describe a potential U.S. role in a post-war security guarantee for Ukraine.

Trump and the White House did not provide further details on what the "air support" would entail, which could range from missile defense systems to enforcing a no-fly zone, but I'm guessing more like logistical support of flying weapons they bought from us (at a higher markup) to their delivery points in Europe.

Trump doesn't want to do anything that Putin can interpret as interfering directly.

I will never read a naked link. I will never watch a video on a naked link. Therefore I will never rec a naked link.

While I appreciate the lack of censorship at this site, if I had my way I would nuke naked links before they get posted, and possibly investigate a way to send 10,000v of electricity down the internet to the keyboard of someone who does that.

If that didn’t work I would start to think up some unreasonable actions to take.

Goof,

Sounds like you received little love as a child. Hard to grow up with little to no love. LOL

Timer123, I'm of the opinion that you should keep your opinions of others to yourself. Like the rest of us, you are a guest in someone elses house and should act with respect for all accordingly. If you have something to say to someone, the site allows you to do iit privately.

Jeff,

I am of the opinion Goofy is joking with me.

You do not need to get involved. You do not rule anyone else here.

Not that it’s any of your business, but I will tell you that I had an absolute “Father Knows Best” “Leave It To Beaver” “Donna Reed Show” “Ozzie & Harriet” 1950’s upbringing. I have often contrasted my childhood with that of Mrs. Goofy, who had a quite dysfunctional era with a mother who was mentally unstable and endlessly withholding. I am one of four, and the oldest, if it matters.

I will say that your arm chair analysis of me is about as good as your armchair economic analyses, which is to say completely verklempt. I find your many posts like a blind squirrel searching for an acorn. Occasionally you find one, but it’s not often enough to make it worthwhile.

Meanwhile, may I offer my congratulations on constructing an entire post without using the words “supply side.” A rare event, and one I hope continues going forward.

Goof,

As usual nothing you say is believable.

Your biggest claims well in the past, I hope you begin again to contribute to society.

Will the parole board reduce your sentence?

Though this is in jest, please be careful to gravitate away from making assumptions about, or even insinuations about, the background of our wonderful authors here at Shrewd’m.

Unintentionally upsetting someone for critiquing their idea (rather than the persoj) with a good argument, is different, and acceptable.
