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.

Nevermind the invasion on our borders. They are winning and shots haven’t even been fired.

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

They’re only hitting on three cylinders while going uphill.

“..When you are politically dead, start a war. It’s the Democrat way....”

For sure. It’s worked for em in the past.
However, Brandon and his vile ilk, are so outright despised by just about everybody but the MSM and the ultra-far communist left, that even a war won’t help em any....probably hurt em even more.

I wouldn't put it past the Russians to start a war mid-winter but it would be unusual. Normally, they'd wait for mid-May after the "rasputitsa" stops turning all the roads to a gooey mush. Certainly, the Russians have winter-fighting capabilities to a very high degree (as do the Ukrainians), but it seems to me a winter war (the term itself brings back unpleasant memories to Russians) would pile on costs for the conquest of Ukraine (Ukrainian defenders would have the advantage).

I'd expect the invasion to take place next Spring.

But there always is that Crazy Ivan factor . . .

Doubtful, and I’m more worried about the proper stocking of meat counter at the grocery store and what I’ll pay for a gallon of gas today.

Isn’t it the dead of winter over there? What general would telegraph their intentions and then invade with tons of snow on the ground?

The key is frozen ground permitting wider use of armor. That region has a lot of wet lands that would prohibit warmer operations.

Most “wars” are nothing more than the sacrifice of the young for the vanity or interests of the old.

Just my .02

Democrats need a war to kill off a bunch of white American fighting age men.

It’s what they do.
