I guess you don't watch the news. Otherwise you's know we are at war with Russia in Ukraine and Biden is at war with Iran in Somalia.

But now you know....so try again.

House Majority Leader says 'we're at war' with Russia, White House claims US has a 'stake' in conflict
On Friday, Democrat House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer made statements on the House floor repeatedly alleging that the United States was also an active participant in the war between Ukraine and Russia.

Biden’s Press Secretary Jen Psaki didn’t deny it when asked about it later in the day, and instead pointed to how the United States clearly has a stake in the conflict and wants Ukraine to beat Putin.

"WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden is sending hundreds of U.S. troops to Somalia to help counter the extremist group al-Shabab, senior administration officials said, warning that the Al Qaeda affiliate has gained strength there since the U.S. withdrew its troops more than a year ago.

Fewer than 500 U.S. troops will be deployed to Somalia from elsewhere in eastern Africa, keeping the total number of U.S. troops in the region the same. Officials did not disclose where they’ll be based or what kind of troops would be sent, but said Biden approved the deployment following a request from Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin.

The long-expected decision reverses a move by former President Trump, in the waning days of his administration, to pull out the more than 700 U.S. military personnel who were stationed there on rotations. Since then, U.S. troops have occasionally traveled in and out of Somalia without maintaining an ongoing presence there."
