WASHINGTON — The White House believes Russia could launch an invasion of Ukraine at any moment, press secretary Jen Psaki said Tuesday, warning that an “extremely dangerous situation” is building along the Ukrainian border.

"We believe we're now at a stage where Russia could at any point launch an attack on Ukraine. I would say that's more stark than we have been,” Psaki said during her daily press briefing.

It was imminent last week, inflation was transitory, Covid was going to be beat by Brandon, I’d say their timing is off.

When you are politically dead, start a war.

It’s the Democrat way.

Hmmm...just when Monica came on the scene we came to the rescue of Bosnia by bombing the country next to it. Remember?

So long as Russian forces are anywhere near Ukraine we will see weekly WH declarations that invasion is imminent so that if it does happen the WH will say, “we told you so.”

They are all on a timeline. They have to do it while Biden is president.

I wonder what they are playing at?

Is Russia really ready to invade? If so, its the worst “surprise” invasion ever, as everyone from Jen Psaki to the hags on “The View” have been telling us about it.

Or rather, are we just being fed another BS narrative to justify some new Atlantic Council deep-state policy?

Notice the HW did not say what they are going to do about it ... I guess ... “nothing.”

After watching him manage the Afghan retreat, I'd say they're on to something. It's too bad for the people who will suffer from this incompetence.

Depends on how fast the war progresses. If the Ukranians blunt the invasion and it becomes toothpick campaigning, then ‘yes’ China moves on Taiwan. OTOH, if Ukraine folds like France in 1940, there won’t be time for China to mount its warhorse.

The White House believes Russia could launch an invasion of Ukraine at any moment...

The White House has been wrong many more times than they have been right. What proof exists of this one? Trust the DOD? Ha ha.

Dementia Joe figuring out a way to shamefully lose with no honor or dignity. As usual.

From Orwell’s 1984:

“That was before the war, of course.”

“Which war was that?” said Winston.

“It’s all wars,” said the old man vaguely.

Warfare is so constant in Oceania that one war blends with another.

So get the Europeans to do something. Meantime the SOUTHERN border? Maybe grab a few American’s out of Afghanistan?
