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.

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.

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.

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

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.

The globalists need their war with Russia. Their persistence is one of the globalist’s strongest assets.

Nobody in the west wants to deny Ukraine and the other former Soviet satellite states that option if they desire it …

Sure we do. Just because some corrupt sh!t-hole country wants to have the U.S. protect it from its neighbors, it doesn’t mean it’s a good idea for the U.S. to sign on to that arrangement.

Putin should bring back the thrilling days of yesteryear and put some missiles in Cuber again.

Putin: Vat do you say Brandon?

Biden: I say let’s go!

Putin: Let’s go where? Not to the Ukraine.

Biden: No. I say let’s go get an ice cream at Ben & Jerry! We can talk climate change.

Putin: That is for sissies... where is Cornpop? Is he your Chief of Defense? In Russia, we tattoo our body. Let me see your tattoos?

Biden: No. Cornpop is not Chief of Defense. I have General Milley who is very, very Woke, CRT and LGBT orientated. He doesn’t have tattoos... I don’t think.

Putin: So he is BLT — Bacon, Tomato Lettuce guy?

Biden: No. LGBT — Lesbian, Gay, Bi, Trans.

Putin: I thought LGBT means a Lets Go Brandon Trainer. You know, a person who advices the President. Somebody who is woke at all hours thinking what to say to the president to fix up the mess.

Biden: Mess? We have a great economy, the best ever for a first term, sitting president. Our borders are secure, inflation is low, gas is cheap, the lowest crime rate ever, people demanding mandatory vaccines and booster shots, and a successful withdrawal from Afghanistan. What more can you say!

Putin: Sitting?

Biden: Yes, I’m a sitting president.

Putin: Sitting in for whom?

Biden: ... Err...

Putin: Well get up! Let’s Go Brandon!

Biden: Yes, let’s go!

I don’t care if Russia invades Ukraine. Not even a little. It’s none of our business. No direct threat to the US.

We’re 20 TRILLION in debt. No more endless wars!!!

The Military-Industrial Complex desperately needs the US to spend ammo, missiles, bombs, planes, spare parts, etc. Because that’s how they test their latest gadgets and get more $$$.

Military leaders and Congress critters kake tons of cash when they get their board seats on Ratheon etc., after back8ng Endless Wars. It a system, a racket.

Nobody advocating for Endless Wars sends their kids. YOUR kids get their legs blown off. Not theirs.

Don’t fall for it. Again.

INMHO, if war with Russia breaks out in Eastern Europe history will lay the blame squarely at the feet of the U.S. Particularly against the Bush and Clinton families.

Russia could have been a valued partner regardless of the history of Putin. I have two reasons both which entail the U.S. government dancing a public jig on the grave of the USSR. Acts sure to sting a proud people and guarantee an atmosphere of mistrust.

Talented diplomacy and leadership would not have done these things.

1). THE EXPANSION OF NATO INTO THE EASTERN BLOCK.
It was unnecessary, it was belligerent, especially in the face of the disbanding of the Warsaw Pact. It proved that the hardliners in Moscow had a valid point.

2) GW’s WAR ON TERROR.
Russia soon after 9/11 experienced terrorist attacks in their southern border regions. Most notable was the attack on and ultimately the killing of an entire Kindergarten class. GW had publicly announced that all terror groups/activities were to be opposed and attacked. Yet when Russia turned to us for assistance in their terrorist problems we flat out refused them and classified the the terrorists as freedom fighters.
“THE WAR ON TERROR FOR ME BUT NOT FOR THEE”.
Again, the Moscow hardliners were proven right.

In addition to the above consider our support for the Ukraine. There is much history in this issue. Most of it bad. However one point must ALWAYS be considered with regards to Russia.
The Ukraine is the door to the Crimea and the Crimea is the home to Sevastopol.
Sevastopol is home port to the Black Sea Fleet. The only warm water port and fleet they have.

Make NO mistake, Russia would no more give up their Black Sea Fleet at Sevastopol than we would give up our Pacific Fleet at Hawaii. To even entertain such thoughts gives support to the Moscow hardliners.

Putin might well be KGB, but he is also without question a Russian patriot and U.S. policies have been running right into that patriotism and making it unforgiving.

Flame on.
