The escalating tensions at our doorsteps demand urgent attention.
Under President Biden’s administration, the open-border policy has allowed a surge of threats that jeopardize national security.
One alarming development is the influx of groups like Tren de Aragua from Venezuela, which disrupts our communities and facilitates drug trafficking to bolster their economy.
This situation requires a steadfast resolve, not a passive wait for the people of Venezuela to rise against their oppressive government.
History shows that regime change rarely unfolds smoothly, and it seems imprudent to rely on a disarmed populace to mount any effective rebellion against a tyrannical regime.
As the Biden administration considers imposing a blockade on Venezuelan oil, such actions could inadvertently escalate into conflict.
The delicate nature of international alliances is further complicated as European leaders propose greater commitments to Ukraine in their ongoing conflict with Russia.
Ukraine’s President Zelensky continues to assert his refusal to relinquish any territory, despite Russian control of much of Donetsk.
Some of the proposed European military guarantees appear to far exceed what we provide to our NATO allies, raising concerns over American involvement in yet another protracted conflict.
Former President Trump has consistently been clear: the U.S. should not engage in ground troop deployments.
However, his administration had already established that we could play a vital role in supporting Ukraine through surveillance and air patrols, thus avoiding unnecessary boots on the ground while still providing critical assistance.
Meanwhile, our military personnel remain scattered across the globe, with recent incidents highlighting the risks our troops face, even in regions with questionable alliances, such as Syria.
The ramifications of military overreach and indecision from the current administration could put American lives and interests at risk.
As we navigate these uncertain waters, we must prioritize strong, decisive leadership that puts America first and seeks to protect our citizens from foreign threats effectively.
The time has come for a re-evaluation of our foreign policies and a return to a more vigilant, America-first approach that champions peace through strength.
