The US has warned of a 'united, swift and severe' response if Putin invades Ukraine as Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived for talks with his Russian counterpart in Switzerland today. Blinken, arriving at the Geneva hotel where the crunch talks are now taking place, said Washington is 'committed to a path of diplomacy' for resolving border tensions between Russian and its ex-Soviet neighbour. But he added that America stands ready with a 'united, swift and severe' response if Moscow invades. 'This is a critical moment,' he said.Both sides said they are not expecting a 'breakthrough' today,
Somehow, I don't think that Germany, France and other western European countries are going to jump into a war with the country from which they get their natural gas to heat their homes in the winter. I think they're going to tell Biden and the U.S government to simply shut up.

The Big Guy, while trying to mop up the mess he made by giving Russia the go-ahead, said there would be a FINANCIAL response. So: 'united, swift and severe' SANCTIONS. “Shock and aw-shucks”

Just when you thought there was no one who could be dumber or weaker than Dementia Joe and along comes Blinken. Worst p(R)esident ever, worst SOS ever.

Yeah. The same way those who cast their lot with us in Afghanistan would be protected. Just shut up. You are making things worse.

Wynken, Blinken, and Nod one night
Sailed off in a wooden shoe,—
Sailed on a river of crystal light
Into a sea of dew.
"Where are you going, and what do you wish?"
The old moon asked the three.
"We have come to fish for the herring-fish
That live in this beautiful sea;
And all we have to do, is make sure Joe gets his 10%

Winken, Blinken, and Noddings...I'm sure the Russians, especially Putin, as his sits on his huge bear with no shirt on, are shaking in their boots at the discouraging threat of the Great God Poopie Pants putting up a fight for Ukraine...saw a cartoon this morning of him drawing multiple pink lines in the sand...

How often must we state Deep-State DC is deliberately destroying Amerika? Traitor Obiden's year-long list of criminal misdeeds soon may include launching us into a war with Russia over Ukraine. Our military should refuse to engage.

Sure. The Ruskies know about Obie’s line-in-the-sand challenge with Syria and Iran. We all know how that worked out.

Like Tucker said, why all the fuss over Ukraine?
And, no, it is not the job of America to be the world's policeman.

Putin may back down. How humiliating would it be for the Russian military to be laughing so hard they cant aim their guns and they get beaten by an army full of American trannies and soy boys? Might not be worth the risk.

typical rhetoric for the demcommies - which usually leads to an armed conflict, something the demcommie party is known to always have happen.
4 years of our President, Donald J. Trump and not one member of our military killed or wounded in a shooting event - is that enough to show you what kind of President Donald J. Trump was?
Damn the demcommies to Hell for the 2020 election!!

All of the western nations have become so "woke" and "progressive" that they are physically incapable of responding to actual acts of extreme violence anymore. So idle threats are about all they have, and Putin is laughing his derriere off knowing that about now.
Besides, so many of these supposedly "free countries" are so busy using their military to crack down on those evil citizens who won't get vaccinated that they won't be available to actually defend their countries.

No, Russia will be met with the same thing that Germany was met with when they annexed the Sudetenland in 1938.....a few "harrumphs!" and some "Shouldn't have done that!"s and NOTHING of substance.

The US leadership looks beyond foolish lecturing about Ukraine’s border integrity while our southern and northern borders brazenly open to the world’s refuse.
I think so too, #1. The UK, I am certain, will do nothing. Boris and the Parliament prissy men know their choices are few as they depend on Russian natural gas.

News Flash: U.S. drone just accidentally bombed the Ukrainian village near the border. Putin reacts to the U.S. attack and sends his troops to defend the village.

The HairSniffer says, as he does what he can to 'block' the Israel-to-Europe natural gas pipeline, depriving Europe of an alternative source of natural gas.
Geez..... what a Donkey's Backside we have occupying the White House!
