The editorial page of the New York Times reflects the politics of the "progressive" wing of the Democratic Party - "woke" and stupid. I do not believe that it reflects the politics of the Biden Administration, which is pretty anti-Russian and anti-CCP/PRC. They're not stupid. Tucker Carlson is also an appeaser, he's scared sh*tless of Vladimir Vladimirovich's threats of nuclear war, which will continue as long as Putin thinks they can be used to scare people into giving him what he wants. What a lot of people, including Carlson and some European leaders, don't know (apparently) is that Putin has no intention of stopping at the Western border of Ukraine, he wants the former Soviet Bloc countries, then all of Western Europe, then the United Kingdom - and if he gets that, then he may just toss nukes at the US just for sh*ts and grins.

Foreign Affairs is probably a better indicator of what US foreign policy is and will be - and I don't see a lot of Neville Chamberlain "Peace In Our Time" appeasement in any of these articles: https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/ukraine/2022-04-01/francis-fukuyama-liberalism-country and https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/ukraine/2022-04-06/ukraine-russia-war-return-conquest and https://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/ukraine/2022-05-11/america-embrace-ukraine-victory-goal ...
