Last week, the Biden administration, led by President Joe Biden himself, made a shocking admission. Brace yourselves, folks! The United States, the mighty land of the brave, is actually sending those so-called “controversial” cluster bombs to Ukraine. Why, you ask? Well, apparently it’s due to a “munitions shortage” and a lack of production ability. Isn’t that just marvelous?

But fear not, dear readers, because Republican Senator J.D. Vance is here to save the day! In a recent interview with Fox News, he shed some light on the true implications of this decision. Vance sounded the alarm bells, warning us about the dangerous consequences for our military readiness and national security. Can you believe it? It seems like we’re playing a high-stakes game of Russian roulette with our own defense capabilities!

We don't make enough artillery shells to support our own needs. Time to stop sending them to Ukraine and focus on rebuilding our own country. https://t.co/ol7Pnzv16S

The fact that we do not have enough conventional artillery to send Ukraine should be a wake up call. Most of the top 15 steel producers now are Chinese & we don’t have a single one. The US urgently needs a strategy to become a manufacturing superpower. https://t.co/JIMSYA1gC8

Now, let’s pause for a moment and think about this. Our brave soldiers, who put their lives on the line every day to protect our great nation, might soon find themselves lacking the necessary ammunition to defend themselves or our allies. Is this really the message our President wants to send? “Sorry, folks, we’re running low on bullets. We just can’t seem to make enough ammo to arm our own troops or support our allies in future conflicts.” It’s as ludicrous as it sounds.
Let’s not forget about the bigger picture here, folks. We’re talking about the potential vulnerability of our great nation on the world stage. If our ammunition supplies continue to dwindle, who knows what our enemies might perceive? They might see it as a green light, an invitation to test our resolve and take advantage of our weakened state. Is this the “strong and stable” leadership we were promised?
Folks, let this be a wake-up call. We can’t afford to let our guard down and allow our military to run low on essential resources. It’s time for our leaders to step up, prioritize the safety and security of our nation, and ensure that our armed forces have the necessary tools to defend our great land. America deserves leaders who uphold our strength and don’t leave us scrambling for ammunition.
