Tonight, more than ever, I’m glad that Joe Biden is our president. Biden is ahead of Putin, calling out every single move. Our improved impeccable US intelligence is paying off. Can you imagine if Trump were still president and how this would have played out? Democracy will prevail.

Truman was Bidenesque. The first time was when Stalin, after WW II, kept Soviet troops in oil-rich Azerbaijan (the Iranian segment.) Truman brought this before the UN while also bluntly informing Stalin that ‘if you don’t withdraw your troops within six weeks, we are coming back in.” This was Stalin’s first major Cold War defeat.
The next occurred when Stalin blockaded Berlin, which was under four-power [Soviet, American, British, French] administration. Stalin sought to starve 2 million Berliners and force the West to abandon Berlin. Instead Truman authorized the Hail Mary American/British air lift which supplied Berliners for many months. Ultimately Stalin surrendered.
It looks like Biden has inherited Truman’s brass balls.
Keep in mind that one of Putin's primary goals is to undermine Democracy in the US. However, Biden's direct response (coalescing European and NATO support), threats of extraordinary severe economic reprisal, continuing effort to find a political solution and wise use of US intelligence (vs "President Putin says it's not Russia. I don't see any reason why it would be") has stalled Putin. Hopefully, for the people of Ukraine and Europe, this will end peacefully.
There was a Repub that said “Putin was afraid of TFG “. I just bursted out laughing ! Whiney T never called Putin names did he. He made fun of all the other dictators. You don’t bite the hand that feeds you . Hahaha !
I have a pic of tfg and Putin in Helsinki. Someone had photoshopped a leash on tfg with P leading him. The facial expressions and the body language were spot on. It should be front page in Every newspaper, as well as corner inset on every news show, especially the fake ones. The message is unmistakable…
Marcia, I would respectfully suggest that this one is more than crap. It is a whole sewer system! I get your drift however, and appreciate your restrained use of words....you are one of my favorites on this forum.
Back to ya guy. This planet of Ppl has been so ugly to so many. I get exhausted over so few causing the suffering of so many. If my walls in my living room lit up with my chosen words in Bright Neon, all my Cussing and Rantings over it, it would be blinding !
Truth. The wall behind my TV screen has a bunch of words that are not in my daily vocabulary hanging on it. Sometimes it is the only way to describe the indescribable! But the forum ought to be a place where we take the sensitivities of others into concern and I did want to let you know that I noticed your effort -- even if one of us just has to drop a word or six sometime in the future. And we most probably will....
Yes, the question of the day: “…can you imagine?” Imagination isn’t just fantasy. It’s predicting an outcome given certain conditions. Not perfect but we need to learn problem solving strategies. Collective WE. Why couldn’t half the country imagine the outcome of voting for a candidate who had lawsuits defending criminal and financial behavior and bankruptcies and blatant racism, sexism and assorted isms not yet imagined?

I always said Trump would sell out the US for a hotel named after him in downtown Moscow, (and we even found out he was planning it)!
And he almost did. And he's still trying.
Trump would have backed his buddy Putin. Thank God for Biden and our NATO allies.

Brass balls, what could be better…
Depleted Uranium....

Putin only pulls this crap when Democrats are in Office.

Yes!
Snark, I hope. Putin does not need to act this way when the other folks are in office. At least not the current crop of them.

Or the marionetter that marionette's you.

Marcia, exactly right! Love the rapper name for Jabba.
Point well made, Jon.

Peace to you, and Light.
🦋❤️And to you my friend.
It wouldn’t “play out,” it would be a done deal.

I think that was the plan…
