Borrow a page from Putin’s playbook and generate an invitation from the lawful government of Ukraine for “peacekeeping” assistance from the U.S. and its NATO allies to fight against the Russian forces.

NO AMERICAN TROOPS.

Keep sending Javelin missiles.

Too late. probably couldn’t get liberal governments in the EU to agree to much. And who would trust Biden and crew to keep their word on anything. Yeah Ukraine give up your nukes and we’ll protect you. Fool me once...

If you send Joe money, he’ll do anything.


The World knows.

Absolutely essential if “we” are to defend LGBTQMAP rights.

Ha, that’s about the size of things. Give Ukraine a bunch of anti-tank weapons and wish them luck. Unfortunately the Ukrainians seem to be falling for it.

I doubt it will be the liberal EU states that intervene.

If any NATO country gets involved it will be Poland. Your average Pole still burns with the memory of 400 years of Russian subjugation.

The Poles send their forces across the border to create a safe zone in Western Ukraine, and that drags in the rest of NATO.

“Looks like Ukraine is doing just fine.

Oh yeah, it’s a picnic. 140,000 Ukraine citizens just went on vacation and everything.

I wouldn’t advise using our military, especially with this Commander in Chief. Maybe send some Rainbow flags.

“Quagmire invitation, or good idea?”

This looks to me like a good time for CHINA to make its move on Taiwan, if they are going to do it.

We are so caught up in this invasion OF UKRAINE; we can’t devote anytime to our own problems of Inflation and Immigration.

Adding in an invasion of Taiwan would be very confusing to us Americans. Especially with our demented President and General Millie; and the Biden Group in the mix.-Tom

I could never remember all the letters of the home agenda until I stumbled upon it.

BLT + GQ = BLTGQ.

Until the fruit salads add another letter for Pedophiles or something else.

Russia isn't even really using their military. They are going out of there way to not hurt civilians or cause too much damage. Ukranians are trying to find some way to get the Russians to do the above so we can all chant "war criminal".

The dumbest and most propagandist headlines ever are coming out.

Could it still, somehow, get out of control. Sure. But, more than likely a deal is in the works or will be very soon.

FR THREAD....Biden Finds A New Level Of Worthless

Given how the Biden administration is bending over backwards to protect Putin’s cash flow, you’d think Hunter was on his payroll.

How else to explain that the Biden administration has explicitly excluded financial transactions “related to energy” from any impact from sanctions?

The definition of “related to energy” the Treasuring Department put out can literally be interpreted to mean about 99 percent of all transactions anywhere. Read this and ask yourself what sanctions actually matter? You won’t find many.

You really do have to think Hunter is cashing checks directly from Putin at this point. It’s the only way to explain the disconnect between the rhetoric and the reality coming out of the President’s mouth.

Stupidity and senility only go so far, this is so blatant that there has to be more to it. Joe Biden has always been worthless, he’s now taken that skill to a whole new level. And a lot of people are dying because of it.

Or what, fight brothers to the death to continue to become a vassal state of the GloboHomo Empire? Die for the “freedom” of streets flooded with fentanyl and Tranny Story hour?
