EXCERPT:
RYAN: “So, not to mention the fact that this has started an escalatory chain here that is very hard to ramp down. We see neighboring countries now potentially getting pulled in, rightly so, because they’re being struck. Of course, when we lose American soldiers, that rightly escalates. So, meanwhile, Putin, Xi, I believe the PRC is our greatest enemy, they’re watching this, seeing us bogged down with two carrier strike groups, depleting our munitions stocks. And I think that puts us in a less safe position. And I don’t want to say that. I don’t say it lightly."
