The White House on Tuesday said it believed a Russian invasion of Ukraine could come at any time, as Press Secretary Jen Psaki warned of an 'extremely dangerous situation' at the border.Her words came as Moscow bolstered the number of troops in the region, sending an unknown number of personnel to Belarus for major war games. Talks between the West and Russia failed to ease tensions last week.Now Secretary of State Antony Blinken will meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday before holding talks with his Russian counterpart Sergey Lavrov in Geneva on Friday

John Foster Dulles gave us Brinksmanship, Zhou Xiden gives us Blinksmanship. Ike is rolling in his grave.

Putin won't invade but the CIA may do it for them. They have been itching to get in a war with Russia.

Did Joey Pantload read that in his tea leaves, or what he dropped in the porcelain this morning? They can taste war with Russia to get Xiden's failures off the front page - though he will fail at this, too.

I'm sure that Putie is totally freaked now that he knows Blinkie is coming to talk to Zelensky. Small joke here. Biden the cheater is buying time because his letter to Putie isn't ready to go yet. This resembles a pre-war surrender.

Biden trying to set up a win/win scenario. If Russia invalids, “We told you so”. If they don’t: “We stared Putin down and he blinked”.

I'm thinking that the big delay in the Russian invasion of Ukraine has been that Putin and the Russian military can't stop laughing long enough from the idiocy coming out of Washington DC to get their plans straight.

Blinken is a ignorant and incompetent as Joe Biden. I don't know if he is as crooked. Doubtful Biden has a peer.

I think they should parachute Vindman in shirtless, with a knife in his teeth and a bazooka on his shoulder. The Russians will collapse with laughter and disaster will be averted.

Putin intends to reassemble the former Soviet Union pieces back into Greater Russia. Nobody has the spine to interfere, too.
Just like when Hitler took the Sudetenland, nobody had the stomach to stop the war when it could have bee small and relatively cheap in money and blood, and when Hitler wasn't actually ready. So - they will wait until it is VERY expensive in blood and money.
Idiots. History repeats, nobody remembers.

During the Cuban Missile Crisis, a main actor in the drama was the UN Security Council. Same with Saddam in Kuwait and later when the US claimed "weapons of mass destruction". Am I missing the US calling an emergency meeting of the UNSC? This is funny business.
My guess is #6 is not far off. NATO says no to Ukrainian membership forever. Russia withdraws a bunch of troops. Biden is the next Peace Prize winner, just like Obama was, in time for the '24 elections.

Let me tell you - - I would NOT want to be on the opposite side of the table from Tony Blinken.
That guy is mean - - tough mean - - mad mean - - brutal mean. Possibly the meanest hombre on the planet right now. Wow! I'm glad he's on our side!

If we were really worried about Ukraine, would we really be sending that idiot Antony Blinken?

Somehow Psaki doesn’t seem to be the appropriate person to announce this.

Boy, it sure would be terrible if, after invading Putin happens to find and release all the files on the Biden crime family’s involvement in Ukraine.
Horrible shame.
