Maybe Commander in Chief Joe is just making sure we're all toast...

US President Joe Biden has given Ukraine permission to use American-supplied weapons to strike targets in Russia, but only near the Kharkiv region, US officials say.
One told BBC News his team had been directed to ensure Ukraine was able to use US weapons for "counter-fire purposes" to "hit back at Russian forces hitting them or preparing to hit them".
Russian forces have made gains in the Kharkiv region in recent weeks after a surprise offensive in the area, close to the border with Russia.
On Friday, Ukrainian officials said three people had been killed and 16 injured in Russian shelling of a residential building in a suburb of Kharkiv city.
The US official also told the BBC: "Our policy with respect to prohibiting the use of Army Tactical Missile System [ATACMS] or long-range strikes inside of Russia has not changed.”
When asked by CBS, the BBC's US partner, whether the new policy included attacking Russian aircraft, an official said: "We’ve never told them [Ukraine] they can’t shoot down a Russian airplane over Russian soil that’s coming to attack them.”
The White House and state department had no immediate comment.
The UK earlier signalled that it was open to an easing of restrictions on how Ukraine could use weapons supplied by the West.

Exactly. This is all odongo’s ilk in their 3rd term, going for the 4th.
This BS has odongo’s fingerprints all over it....
The only thing the pedoPIG runs is the nasty, smelly, runny poop leaking out of the diaper and down his leg.
Oh King!!
GOOD!!!!!!!!!!
ABOUT. TIME.
WWIII is around the corner. Putin will use Nukes if pushed and he hates Obozo/Biden.
Oh, Good— Manage the debacle of Ukraine just like LBJ did in Vietnam. Micro manage your utter failure— while you make sure the manufacturers get PAID. Same as Vietnam. Deja vu.
With NATO troops in Ukraine and firing into Russia, Russia goes to full mobilization and moves on the Baltics.
Also, China-Taiwan, North Korea, Iran, Hezbollah, Venezuela-Guyana, maybe Serbia-Kosovo
The more go, the more incentive for the rest of them to go...
