President Joe Biden has been criticized after he stated outright that 'no one' expected sanctions that were imposed on Russia 'to prevent the invasion' of Ukraine.He made the candid remarks during Thursday afternoon's press conference over the situation in Eastern Europe. Reporters were quick to take the president to task over what appeared to be a changing stance on whether sanctions, economic or otherwise, were effective in any way. 'No one expected the sanctions to prevent anything from happening,' Biden said in what was a complete reversal to what he had said previously.

If no one expected sanctions to work, what did Biden expect sanctions to do? I suppose it depends on the definition of “to work.”
You gotta understand Democrat nuance — also known as NONSENSE!

There is an agreed doctrine in the elite circles: no assassinations. Intended to protect the élite and family from fear. Perhaps it is beyond time for we plebs to renegotiate the agreement.

This is Joey's payback for that Moscow mayor giving Sonny Boy $10M with no repercussion.

Putin has not been personally sanctioned? Why the hell not? AAAH yeah, the $10,000,000 given to Hunter by the Mayor's wife in Moscow!
Now of America's lack of response: it's starting to make sense.

Poor Hunter.....this mess is probably going to put a dent in his crack habit. At least he still has cash flow from his career as a world renowned painter to fall back on.

The root cause of all the chaos inside and outside of this country can be traced back to the corrupt democrat party who decided they were going to steal an election in order to enact their vile leftist anti-American agenda. Our present situation can be attributed to democrat lawlessness and Republican apathy. Our political class has failed miserably. One is destruction on steroids and the other is unwilling to defend the Constitution. Of course, the bad actors on the world stage are going to take advantage. Just wait until China appears in Act II.

He's admitting that he just allowed this to happen. It's outrageous. He should be impeached.

There should never have been any expectation that Biden and the fools controlling him would handle this in any way beyond their normal incompetence. Every day there is a new inane, dishonest and juvenile remark. The media should stop acting surprised. We aren’t.

It is a fact that applying sanctions AFTER the fact doesn't do anything to prevent it. That is why you need to apply sanctions BEFORE hand. Threatening to a apply sanctions BEFORE hand while doing NOTHING is just bombastic hot air.

And as Putin salivates about running the world with XI...soros waits in the background for his share of Europe ...remember he was a nazi during hitler's time...at 91 years today...he was born in 1933 and became part of the hitler youth program...where the good little nazis were told about how special they were and how they were destined to rule the world...looks like he believed them and now WE're stuck with him...
