A basic rule of international relations is that you do not impose sanctions without an end state in mind. You also need to be able to muster strong international support by providing clear proof of the charges you are bringing. Does the U.S. have that support? When you levy charges against another country and then apply sanctions, there will invariably be pushback. The situation can easily escalate into a major crisis.
Has Biden thought through his dealings with Russia and President Vladimir Putin? What does he intend to accomplish with the latest round of sanctions against the Russian Federation?
In just four months, President Biden has managed to ratchet up tensions with Russia to new heights not seen since 2014 and the invasion of Ukraine. Last Thursday, Biden made good on his threats, announcing new sanctions to Russia for interfering in the 2020 U.S. presidential election and involvement in the SolarWinds hack of federal agencies — activities Moscow has denied. The Biden White House now admits that one provocative claim against Putin, Biden's repeated accusations that Russia put bounties on U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan, relies upon very shaky intel from the CIA. In remarks to a state news agency on Monday, Zamir Kabulov, President Putin's special envoy for Afghanistan and a former ambassador in Kabul, dismissed the Taliban bounties report as "outright lies" generated by "forces in the United States who don't want to leave Afghanistan and want to justify their own failures." Putin is particularly irritated at the idea that he would hire killers from a radical Islamist group that is banned in Russia as a "terrorist" outfit, the same Afghan fighters who killed so many Red Army soldiers during their war there. So, despite this admission from the White House, Putin has not forgotten the slight.

Bidet and company can lie about Trump without consequences, but now they are lying about people who could strike back and open a can of whoop a**,
Biden wants pudding.
Biden has no clue what he “wants.”’ What matter is what his handlers want.
We may find ourselves fighting a two-front war with Russia and China. That is a recipe for certain defeat.
He will personally call the Tsar to talk it over. He and Nicky go way back.
Rats love break & circuses for the masses - distracts from the mess they're making of things...
Well, he *does* want his pudding. That's Dr. Jill's job.
And when you consider that all you have to work with is a bunch of "woke" soy boys, I'd say the odds are not in our favor...
I think Russia and China are trying to get us to do something really dumb, like disarming 85% of our current nuclear weapons, as well as massive across-the-board defense cuts. And Biden and Obozo will oblige.
No he wants to start controversy so he can look presidential when he fixes it. Of course his fix will be filled graft and corruption.
Press abroad seems to agree that Bidet does not know, what is he doing. At least, they think, that Putin convinced himself of this. So Putin is working hard to take advantage of it.
The objective for BOTH Russia and China is to so weaken the resolve of the US and the Harris/Stolen regime to the point that the surrender, both in the Ukraine and Taiwan, takes place without one American weapon being fired.
Almost there....
Who could believe the US military could be so hollowed out in the first 100 days of the Harris/Stolen regime?
Even Afghanistan is not likely to respect the US any longer.
Honduras, Guatemala, and El Salvador have already sent their invasion forces. Other countries allied with them are also sending their own contingents.
Agree.
War with Russia would result in War Protests that could bring down the democrats.... Tar and feathers for Biden and his associates.
The more important question, e.g., whether you would side with Putin against Biden to the “save the USA” and if supporting Putin is Treason is a question the democrats answered long ago when burning down the NYT against Bush II.
DIVERSITY IS UNITY
Biden couldn’t tell you what he had for breakfast, let alone his cogitation on Russia.
But does anyone really care? I sure don’t.
Diversity is biologically incorredt
