Russia cannot afford to invade. Unless of course, Biden forces the price of oil higher. Russia is not a superpower anymore. They are barely a regional power. They should be treated as such.

“Putin’s human rights record remains abysmal ...”

Putin is against pedophilia,
as practiced by Xiden and kin.
Raped and eaten children have (had) rights, too.

Yea, I think what America needs first and foremost in 2022 is another multi-trillion dollar war.

How can anyone sustain a 50 minute conversation with Joe Biden whose mind will check out within 5 minutes of opening the conversation? Did they hand the phone over to Ron Klain after Biden started rambling on with Vlad about how he once was a long haul truck driver?

What it all amounts to is Putin telling Biden...

Are you telling me that I cannot protect my borders? Maybe look at your own policy of NOT protecting your borders. How's that working out? And Mexico is your friend. But cartels are not.

If the White House was smart, they’d have a team of Joe Biden voice impersonators on staff. Is Rich Little still available?

A must read on the situation in Ukraine written by former US ambassador to Russia and a career foreign service officer.

Let’s not forget it was Putin that initiated the call. The bet here is that he told Biden he’s taking Ukraine and warned against any interference from the US. With Biden and our dipshit Secretary of State Blinken, Secretary of Defense Austin, we are at our weakest.Our military is more concerned with purging the military of anti vaxxers and pro Trumpers.

More like Putin was pissed that he wasted his time talking to an ignorant scarecrow.

Ironic part is that team biden wanted to discuss Russia’s border while our border is being ignored.

Did Biden go home to get his shinebox?

Just like we showed those Afghans, ...

The thought of Biden prosecuting such a war is scary. Ukraine isn’t worth it, at least not to me. It may be worth it to corrupt fat cat politicians that hide their money in Delaware.

I don't think Putin is worried about what Joe thinks.

I'd love to see the full behind the scenes audio/video of Joe's handlers feeding him his lines. Translation gives them extra time to fake the dialogue.

Ukraine is a European problem, not an American problem.

How bout the almighty European Union muster up the backbone to defend their own interest...whatever the hell it is.

$30 Trillion in debt with $160 Trillion in unfunded liabilities and these @$$ hats are about to lead us into yet another war. Good grief!

NATOizing Ukraine (and Finland and Sweden) may just be the proverbial “bridge too far,” at least now. We will see…

I tend to agree...Putin simply put down his markers. He probably indicated no weapons transferred to the Ukraine, no use of NATO forces within Ukraine, and no further sanctions. Joe has no cards to lay on the table, and this whole thing is finished unless the US gets really stupid.

After Biden’s Afghan debacle, Putin sees a historic opportunity to expand Russia’s borders and cement his own legacy, and I am guessing he may well actually invade.

Hypothetically, would it be un-American for one to be really kinda on Vlad’s side in this deal, or at least to see his point?
