President Joe Biden has cancelled the deployment of two US warships from the Black Sea despite warning Vladimir Putin there would be 'repercussions' for the troop build-up in Ukraine.

Last week, Turkey said Washington was sending two warships to the Black Sea, in a decision Russia called an unfriendly provocation.

But the Biden administration has reversed the decision after the Kremlin warned them to 'stay away for their own good'.

LMAO!!! This is what happens when we make promises with no intention to keep them. My motto stealing from Bismarck is Ukraine is not worth the bones of a single Ranger.

So much for the “Take him behind the gym!” prattle.

Not a surprise. Biden just gave Putin the go ahead to invade eastern and southeast Ukraine.

In other words, Biden runs away from Putin like a little girl, but yells back over his shoulder that “there will be repercussions”?

I want to thank the Ivygarchy Elite for tuning me into a jaded and cynical person. I really do not care if Putin makes a dash for the Dnieper. I would imagine I am like Americans in the post-Great War Era being so cynical after Woodrow Wilson’s crusade to “make the world safe for domocracy”.

Biden and his deep state puppets are engaging in the worst of diplomacy

They are making unnecessary threats - and then they are backing away from them.

We all know Biden is not running the country. Fed.gov is run by a shifting faction of Democrats, Permanent deep staters and intelligence community - so its decisions, such that they are, are being made by committee of interests. Such kind of faction-rule is inherently unstable.

Maybe they can remedy this by telling Biden “Cornpop” is in charge of the Russian buildup.

All that blackmail on Pedo Joe and his sicko family sure comes in handy in times like this for Putin.

Putin is a serious Russian nationalist. Within Russia there are those who lament the self inflicted, unforced catastophic decision that allowed the Baltic states, Belarus, and the Ukraine to leave the Russian Federation and become independent. Putin sees as his patriotic task to reestablish the Russian Federation. He views the Biden Administration at its core to be weak and indecisive. The Russians do not think that the Americans or NATO will risk a war. The Chinese are making the same calculations as they consider a forceful but unlikely action on Taiwan.

Right now a leftist cabal is running the demented, corrupt Biden. It will scatter like mice come the first real crisis. The US is in grave danger.

What? Biden’s plan to make Putin Laugh Himself To Death didn’t work?

This is a “Line of Death”, you cross it, you die!

Ok, you cross this line, you die.

Cross this line, you die.

Cross this line, you die.

Ok, that’s it you come knocking on my door, I’m not coming out, nyah!

Biden knows that Putin is going to invade East and Southeast Ukraine and didn’t want the optics of 2 U.S. ships sitting in the Black Sea and watching it happen.

One can only imagine how “unready” those two ships and their SJW/PC crews were with Biden as Potus and his new SEC DEF.
