Putin continues test of Biden
Putin has issued a “red line” to NATO (and thus the US, since we’re pretty much the bulk of NATO) on Ukraine. Jeff LPH3 sends in this Military Times article;
Russian President Vladimir Putin on Tuesday sternly warned NATO against deploying its troops and weapons to Ukraine, saying it represents a red line for Russia and would trigger a strong response.
Commenting on Western concerns about Russia’s alleged intention to invade Ukraine, he said that Moscow is equally worried about NATO drills near its borders.
Speaking to participants of an online investment forum, Putin said that NATO’s eastward expansion has threatened Russia’s core security interests. He expressed concern that NATO could eventually use the Ukrainian territory to deploy missiles capable of reaching Moscow in just five minutes.
“The emergence of such threats represents a ‘red line’ for us,” Putin said. “I hope that it will not get to that and common sense and responsibility for their own countries and the global community will eventually prevail.”
He added that Russia has been forced to counter the growing threats by developing new hypersonic weapons.
“What should we do?” Putin said. “We would need to develop something similar to target those who threaten us. And we can do that even now.”
He said a new hypersonic missile that is set to enter service with the Russian navy early next year would be capable of reaching targets in comparable time.
“It would also need just five minutes to reach those who issue orders,” Putin said.
The Zircon hypersonic cruise missile, capable of flying at nine times the speed of sound to a range of 1,000 kilometers (620 miles), has undergone a series of tests, most recently Monday.
I’m sure Biden, Austin, and Blinkin, respected as they are for their determined, principled leadership and firm foreign policy, will be able to handle this. Biden should call the smartest person he knows. That guy’s got a lot of experience in Ukraine.

About ‘our’ current conundrum, I constantly have to ask myself, “who is to blame here?”.
I won’t say who it is, but by their fruits you know them mf’ers.
Fake revolutions and faker elections have consequences.
Wonder if these mofos that have sold out our Country realize that they will be the FIRST (ht 2 NDHoosier) to be stood up against the wall? And that none of the money they stashed away in a Swiss Bank Account will save them.
Miss them mean tweets yet?
Putin responds to all the tough talk:
Putin played B. Hussein 0bama like a cheap fiddle at a Barn Dance and he knows he can do the same with Joke Biteme with less than half the effort he used on B. Hussein 0bama.
Joe Potato is still mad about Khrushchev banging his chancla at Un weeks ago and conspiring with Corn Pop to place Hunter’s laptop in Gitmo.
You know, the thing.
What, the big orange guy on the Fantastic Four?
“It’s Slobberin’ Time!”
– FJB, you know, the Thing.
Retch warning.

Brandon is going to offer Putin membership of NATO.
You heard it here first.
That’ll go over like a loud fart in Church during a wedding.
It is what Putin wanted.
Not sure he still wants it. NATO lost it’s first and only war on Brandon’s watch in a humiliating defeat. It would be like getting to play professional baseball but having to play for the NY Mets.
