If only more news personalities (Tucker is an opinionated personality not a news anchor) questioned the party they are perceptively linked to, journalism might get some credibility back. Kudos for going against the grain and trying to get folks to engage their brain juices

CSM Chuck Stafford Of 21 Years I Served 8 were under Reagan, Project Timberline, Attain Document I II III, Prairie Fire/El Dorado Canyon. I'm Pretty Sure I have a better Comprehension of Reagan's Policies and Attitudes. For 8 Years I did some "Interesting" Things and Almost got Blown Up Once because of It! FOX News if Full of Crap!

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - Tucker is an opinion influencer, not a newcaster. I feel the same about folks who watch the View to get their news. As for "news" channel, beware of sole source intel... you know that

Lindsey Graham is a quick knee jerk reaction politician. His rhetoric is just that. Reagan would not just start shooting down Russian planes. He would have started diplomatically by condemning the shoot down, then he would start an information campaign, then he would hit them economically, then if all that failed he would use military force...that is how Reagan would have done it. He wouldn't have gone off halfcocked like Lindsey Graham and start popping off rounds at Russian Jets...that is how full on wars get started. Now there may come a time when we have to start firing rounds but we are not there yet and I believe Reagan would agree.

I agree with Tuckers premise but we need to leave Reagan out of it....and focus on what our current CINC should and needs to do. Graham is all talk and mostly no substance. He has good ideas but his methods of getting them across are not honed too sharp.

Hey Lindsay! --> Remind me again how Reagan got into a shooting war when KAL 007 got shot down in 1983?

Reagan was a Hawk against the Soviet Union and the Warsaw Pact. There were 83,000 Warsaw Pact tanks along the Iron Curtain, mainly in East Germany. Thuringia in what was East Germany butts up against the Fulda Gap and that is just a stones throw away from Frankfort.
Ukraine is NOT in NATO nor are the Russians a threat to Western Europe, even though the Military Capabilities of most of the Non US NATO is minimal at best.
The is no excuse to strip the US National Defense Capabilities, expending massive amounts of US monetary and military aid with little oversight, and risking a nuclear conflict over Ukraine. We have had some bad choices in proxies in the past, this one ranks up towards the top.
