By Barbara Starr and Jeremy Herb, CNN & Gilbert Baez, WRAL Fayetteville reporter

CNN — Up to 8,500 US troops have been put on heightened alert for a possible deployment to Eastern Europe as Russian troops mass on Ukraine's border, Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said Monday.

But, sources have told WRAL News' Fayetteville reporter, Gilbert Baez, that Fort Bragg troops will be going to Europe. The public affairs officers for Fort Bragg's 18th Airborne Corps and the 82nd Airborne Division said the White House will have to confirm any deployments.

US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin issued the prepare to deploy orders at the direction of President Joe Biden. Kirby said no final decision to deploy the troops had been made.

Earlier on Monday CNN reported the Biden administration was in in the final stages of identifying specific military units it wants to send to Eastern Europe, according to multiple US and defense officials.

I do not support any CIC action what so ever that this brain dead pedophile enacts. 

Our troops do not deserve this.

Well something is up.  My subdivision has a bunch of Army Rangers and their cars are not in the driveways.

Is Biden teeing up to declare war on Russia?

Doesn't that require an act of Congress?

Since Ukraine is not a NATO member, this can't easily be jammed in under pre-existing treaty obligations.

Wondering if the democrat-communists will use "the need for troops" as an excuse to re-instate the draft...?

We already have tens of thousands of troops in Europe. This makes no sense.

Draft would not work. In this new "woke" era, the military is not looking for just anybody or soldiers. In the Austin/Milley military, they only want Leftist Liberal indoctrinated 'activists'.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

Doesn't Congress need to approve the deployment of troops??

The WAR POWERS ACT allows the President to deploy troops for at least 60 days.
I bet the troops are chomping at the bit to see action.
No one wants a draft. Civilians don't want it... neither does the military. I joined a draft Army and retired from a VOLUNTEER ARMY. Volunteer is MUCH BETTER.
