NEW YORK (AP) — President Joe Biden said Thursday that the risk of nuclear “Armageddon” is at the highest level since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, as Russian officials speak of the possibility of using tactical nuclear weapons after suffering massive setbacks in the eight-month invasion of Ukraine.
Speaking at a fundraiser for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Biden said Russian President Vladimir Putin was “a guy I know fairly well” and the Russian leader was “not joking when he talks about the use of tactical nuclear weapons or biological or chemical weapons.”
Biden added, “We have not faced the prospect of Armageddon since Kennedy and the Cuban Missile Crisis.” He suggested the threat from Putin is real “because his military is — you might say — significantly underperforming.”
U.S. officials for months have warned of the prospect that Russia could use weapons of mass destruction in Ukraine as it has faced a series of strategic setbacks on the battlefield, though Biden’s remarks marked the starkest warnings yet issued by the U.S. government about the nuclear stakes.

I have thought for many years now that most of them should be stood up against a wall.
Does that qualify? :)
The pervert wishes...he is hoping to scare people into voting for dems I guess
The fall of 1983 was closer. Susspiculfy September.26th.
Thanks to you, Brandon.
Do the former to get the latter.
How about a nice game of chess?
“Uhh, Fred, don’t look now but here comes Alec Baldwin.”
All according to his plan.
I say Putin would never be nuts enough to launch a nuclear attack, but on the other hand never underestimate the ability of Joe Biden to make it happen.
Zelensky called on NATO to launch a nuclear first strike on Russia today.
Wonder if Biden put him up to it.
If WWIII holds off until the ceremony, Zelensky is a shoo-in for the Peace Prize.
email the Doomsday Clock azzholes and ask if they are waiting for Putin to actually nuke Ukraine?
or are they just waiting for Trump to return...
