House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Saturday said if Russian President Vladimir Putin invades Ukraine, the move would be "an attack on democracy," and reiterated the U.S. and NATO would respond with strong and swift sanctions.

During a press briefing at the Munich Security Conference, Pelosi said Putin cannot just "bully the world" without facing consequences.

Anything less than a total trade embargo on Russia and Belarus is not enough.

Don’t forget that Belarus is in on this.

How about Canada’s human rights abuses against the Truckers Union, Nancy?!

Got anything to say about that?!

She’s delusional. There is no way we could do anything worse to the Russians than their own government can do to them.

“Attack on democracy” has gotten quite popular. May soon replace “racist!”

How she gets that many syllables loaded into the slingshot behind her dentures, I know not.

Путин: "Наш экспорт энергоресурсов с вами не согласен."

Putin: "Our export of energy resources does not agree with you."

Maybe I should start learning some Russian the way this is going. :(

No, they aren’t. Putin prepared for sanctions before he did anything else.

08/01/1941 FDR froze all Japanese assets in US. Embargoed all oil, steel, and other strategic materials as a result of Japanese occupation of French Indo China. Four months and one week later that bill came due.

It boggles the mind what incompetents these people are.

Russian has oil and natural gas and willing consumers in Europe.

So, you’re going to implement sanctions. That’s nice.

Enter the Chinese Yuan as our preferred currency to trade with.

And before we even get to that. I’ll ring the Jingping Bat Phone and ask him to start dropping some dirt on you and the rest of the puppets in your government. Oh wait, we have that information, too.

How about this — stop the pipeline and flood the world with energy. Devalue energy thereby hurting Russia, Iran, Venezuela, etc. Basically our enemies.
