BRUSSELS — President Biden, who is holding emergency talks with NATO leaders in Brussels, is expected to announce plans for the United States to take in 100,000 Ukrainian refugees and others fleeing Russia’s invasion, two senior U.S. officials said, noting that the exact number could change.

Hmm. Bucking the demographic trend.

Maybe Ukrainians can be declared "people of color" to stay on track? /smirk

That’s cool.

About the only thing which makes sense in all of this.

Most of them will pose no threat to our nation/society, they will integrate easily (culture compatible) and be productive members of society (many have skills/trades and education).

You want to help, but you don’t want to invite trouble either, and Ukrainians do NOT pose that threat.

“President Biden, who is holding emergency talks with NATO leaders in Brussels”

This is great, the best possible thing Slo Joe could be doing. These warmongering dipsh!ts, conniving together, should scare both Ukraine and Russia into real progress on a negotiated disengagement. Negotiate peace now or watch the west blow up the entire region.

about 30 percent of “Ukrainian” refugees are Africans and Muslims, so you can bet that those are the “Ukrainian” refugees we’ll end up with.

we don’t have food shortages. We have a shortage of easily prepared food.

I had an online debate with someone who was extremely distraught that he could not find boxes of pasta in multiple trips to several supermarkets. I casually explained that for $5 he could have everything needed to make about 10 lbs of pasta. you would have thought I was asking him to preform brain surgery to feed himself... Comical.

Most of them will pose no threat

Really? What about the ones that do pose a threat? How many does it take to pose a serious threat?

Fox just reported that Joe Biden, was the only NATO leader who did not speak to the press. All the others stopped to make comments and/or questions. Joe didn’t.

I saw a huge bag (40 lb?) of flour in Costco a week ago for $16.95 and thought, “wow, that is a hell of a lot of flour for $17.”

Russia doesn’t care about these sanctions. Too funny!
We are still buying a billion dollars of Russian oil every single day.

Will the 100,000 refugees have to chase a C-135 down a runway to get here?

Did you buy it?

You could always sell it months for profit later when flour becomes scarce.

The real war taking place is the dedollarization war.
The Saudis are going to be paying China in yuan.
Russia just announced that payments from unfriendly countries will need to be made in rubles.

The petro dollar is already history. It remains to be seen how the dollar itself will fare.

We really should build that wall so that we can accept these refugees and stop the overflow.

He won’t answer any questions. He left our border open. How many illegals have flowed in here. He is flying them inside and bussing them in. Hardly nobody asks. The last time he got pissy and said we are working on it. How about just close it.
