Ukraine war shows us that old nuclear strategies won’t keep us safe and Biden must wake up

The war in Ukraine has revealed how the digital age is leveling the playing field between great powers and smaller countries. Ukraine has skillfully deployed precision munitions, drone technology and sophisticated encrypted software to gain the upper hand against Russia’s invading conventional military, but Russian President Vladimir Putin’s most recent remarks, and his move to illegally annex portions of Ukraine, make it clear that digital warfare will also unleash a second nuclear age.

Western technology, including encrypted command and control, the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS), drone and counter-drone systems, combined with Ukrainian savvy and resolve have arrested Russian advances and recently rolled back Russian gains. Chips and software have proven more potent than tanks and soldiers. “The lesson for every big country is ‘holy s—,” Palantir CEO Alex Karp recently told CNBC.

Branden is weak, the world knows how weak he is, beaten like a drum in Afghanistan, now beaten like two drums by Russia because he would not stand up to a mad man. The only way to stop Vlad the Mad is to fight him with fire.

We don’t need the history books to be written to know that Biden has brought us to the brink of war. He has failed to stand up to dictators worldwide, therefore America’s hegemony is no more.

This would not have happened under a Trump administration. Number 45 stood Tall, Branden crouches like an invalid. In less than four weeks the world will see the results of the Biden administration; simply put, it is an overwhelming disaster.
