President Joe Biden’s recent decision to allow Ukraine to fire U.S.-made missiles deep into Russian territory raises grave concerns—not just about the policy itself, but about who is truly making these decisions. In a world teetering on the brink of global conflict, this move has left Americans questioning whether their future is being gambled away by an administration operating on autopilot.
For months, Ukraine lobbied for the use of these missiles, citing the need to strike critical Russian military targets. This past weekend, the White House finally relented. The result? Moscow has erupted with threats of retaliation, with Russian lawmakers warning this shift could escalate into World War III. While President Vladimir Putin’s regime bears full responsibility for starting the war, it’s fair to ask: has the U.S. now crossed a line that imperils its own security?
Yet, amid the escalating tension, the most pressing question isn’t about policy—it’s about leadership.
Is Biden Making the Call?
It’s no secret that President Biden’s cognitive health has been a topic of concern for years. His public gaffes, apparent confusion during key moments, and visibly declining mental acuity have drawn scrutiny not just from political opponents but from observers around the world. If Biden did, in fact, authorize this missile policy, Americans have every right to demand accountability for such a reckless move.
But what if he didn’t?
What if someone else in the administration made the call while Biden simply signed off without fully understanding the implications? Was it Kamala Harris, whose political acumen has been questioned even by members of her own party? Or is it one of the countless unelected bureaucrats who seem to wield unchecked power in Washington?
A Dangerous Precedent
The mere possibility that life-and-death decisions of this magnitude could be made by someone other than the sitting president should terrify every American. This isn’t about partisan politics—this is about the survival of our nation and the preservation of global stability. Allowing Ukraine to escalate its offensive into Russian territory, while understandable from a strategic standpoint, carries enormous risks. Risks that demand the full attention of a competent, engaged leader.
The lack of transparency compounds the problem. Americans deserve to know who is steering the ship. If Biden lacks the capacity to independently assess and make such decisions, then he must step down immediately for the good of the country.
Congress Must Act Now
Where is Congress in this moment of crisis? It’s their duty to serve as a check on the executive branch, yet there’s been little more than partisan bickering as the world edges closer to catastrophe. Lawmakers must step in to demand a clear chain of accountability. Who approved this policy? Who weighed the risks? And who, if anyone, will be held accountable if this sparks a global conflict?
Congress must act swiftly—not just to address the missile policy, but to ensure the nation is not being governed by sound bites and anonymous decision-makers. The stakes are too high for anything less.
The Unthinkable Consequences
The thought of a cognitively impaired president—or worse, a shadow government of unelected officials—making decisions that could lead to World War III is horrifying. Yet here we are, at the mercy of an administration that seems more focused on optics than outcomes.
It’s time to face the hard truth: leadership matters. If Biden is incapable of leading, someone must have the courage to say so. If others in the administration are overstepping their bounds, Congress must hold them accountable.
Because the next time we hear a sound bite from the White House, it could be too late.
