Poland's defense minister said Saturday that Warsaw is prepared to accept additional American troops to reinforce NATO's eastern flank — a direct response to President Trump's signaling that U.S. forces may shift out of Germany.

The Founders placed the war power in Congress for a reason. Repositioning thousands of American sons and daughters across an alliance theater is not a boardroom transaction. Eisenhower's farewell warned us that the machinery of permanent military presence develops its own momentum — its own budget lines, its own contractors, its own gravitational pull on policy. Before the next flag goes up on Polish soil, the republic deserves a vote in Article I, not just a post on X.
