With poll numbers continuing to tank, and midterm elections right around the corner, the Biden Administration desperately needs a win. It appears they’re enacting a bold strategy that involves first manifesting a crisis and then proceeding to take credit for solving the non-existent crisis they created.
For weeks, the White House has been telling us, without evidence, that the Russian military is on the verge of launching a massive land and air invasion into Ukraine. Citing apparent troop movements within Russia’s own territory on their border with Ukraine, the White House has continually signaled that Russia is swelling its numbers for an imminent attack.
President Joe Biden says the U.S. will not fight Russia in Ukraine. But if Putin were to take his offensive to NATO allies, Biden said, “the United States will defend every inch of NATO territory with the full force of American power." https://t.co/5nFaStZrW7

The Kremlin, for its part, has remained pretty consistent in denying the allegation that it wants war in Ukraine. Though Russia has in recent years annexed parts of Ukraine (and we cannot dismiss the possibility that Moscow may annex more land), a territory with a long history of Russian control, Moscow has fervently denied the allegation that a massive military invasion was on the table. Russia’s successful Crimea annexation was not met with almost no resistance, but we were continually told that this time, Vladimir Putin would seek pure, unfettered violence.
The United States government seems to be the only entity in the world that has advanced the imminent invasion narrative. Throughout Ukraine itself and the rest of Europe, nation states showcased, through their behavior, a posture of being unconvinced that anything significant was going to happen on the border. Even as the State Department urged Americans to evacuate Kiev, Ukrainians living right on the Russia border region went about their days without much concern.
Putin would cause significant damage to Biden's prestige and inflict real-time consequences on Americans in an already tense midterm election year — including with likely new hikes to already soaring gasoline prices. https://t.co/oJKwNgQEQv

Biden national security adviser Jake Sullivan, a longtime political operative for Hillary Clinton, claimed in a recent briefing to reporters that Russia was ready to go full throttle into Ukraine.
White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan says any Russian attack is "likely to begin with aerial bombings and missile attacks" before a subsequent ground invasion.

“If a Russian attack on Ukraine proceeds, it is likely to begin with aerial bombing and missile attacks that could obviously kill civilians without regard to their nationality,” Sullivan said. “A subsequent ground invasion would involve the onslaught of a massive force.”
State Department spokesperson Ned Price continued to perpetuate the narrative, claiming that Russia was creating a false flag pretext for war in Ukraine.
Beyond that, the supposed secret U.S. “intelligence reports” laundered through the corporate press warned of an even more brutal outcome.

Finally, White House officials and anonymous intelligence officials claimed, through their corporate press stenographers, that Putin’s war was going to start the invasion Wednesday morning. Barring some last minute diplomacy, the Kremlin was going to commit to action, we were told.
.@POTUS is putting the pressure on Putin to not launch an illegal war of choice against our democratic ally Ukraine.
To keep the peace Biden is correctly isolating Russia, forging alliance unity, calling out misinformation & creating leverage thru sanctions. pic.twitter.com/YsWFLoF3V7

Clearly, the emphasis on last minute diplomacy was the seed they wanted to plant in the minds of Americans.
This, all of it, was theater.
Notice the parsing:
Biden:
Returning to home bases is NOT the same thing as leaving frontline positions.
Joe’s writer knows that.
Both Russia and Ukraine are asking Joe’s puppetmaster to stop with the wag-the-dog war-mongering.
Besides all the above, we have massive numbers of powerful spy satelites so that, YES, we DO know exactly where Putin’s troops and equipment are at any moment.
If Joe hasn’t got one win in his policies, foreign or domestic, his puppetmaster will create one for him.
I’ve doubted that Putin was going to invade; he has other means to undercut the Ukrainian government and make it fall. A full-scale military invasion would draw the condemnation of all the civilized world (that which is not aligned with Putin and Biden) and be bloody. Putin was bluffing.
But, if it was a real threat and idiot Biden managed to stop it, good for him. He’s 1 for 300.
Russia Mocks the Biden Administration and Its Prediction that Russia Would Invade Ukraine Today
They then issued a series of tweets mocking Biden.

Biden has put many people in harm’s way for bragging rights. He’s made us a laughing stock on the world stage. Putin’s as much in their heads as Trump is.
Russia has these war exercises every year. Putin knew that biden, whose numbers are in the tank and dropping even lower, would attempt to use this to try a reverse his irreversible numbers. I give credit to Putin for stringing biden out like a fool and then dropping him like a bad blind date.
The only idiots thinking war was imminent were the biden junta and the democrat media.
biden embarrasses America yet again…
Idiot Biden is such a gross embarrassment to the nation.
Putin played jackass biden like a Stradivarius
Step back everyone, Lynn Cheney is having wargasms!
Sen. Menendez says we can’t just give Ukraine to Russia.
We can just give Texas to Mexico though.
Biden in Ohio: “Every Time I Get a Chance, I Go Home to Delaware. You Think I’m Joking – I’m Not” (VIDEO)
Joe Biden on Thursday traveled to Lorain, Ohio to deliver remarks on his infrastructure law he signed in November.
Biden announced the US is investing $1 billion to clean up the Great Lakes.
As usual, Joe Biden’s speech was full of gaffes and bizarre stories.
At one point Joe Biden claimed he was a lifeguard on Lake Oswego in New York (doesn’t exist).
“At my old hangouts as well. I went to Syracuse University. I was a lifeguard on Lake Oswego and I know the Oswego River up in New York,” said Biden.
There is no Lake Oswego in New York.
Joe Biden also said he loves being home in Delaware….while he was in Ohio.
“Every time I get a chance, I go home to Delaware. You think I’m joking, but I’m not,” said Biden.
Wait… Did Russia invade Ukraine yesterday as predicted by Biden? Did I miss it?
Note to the lie-peddling moron at The Dossier: Biden never said it has been stopped.
One hour ago: Biden: Russian threat to invade Ukraine still ‘very high’
So Biden has failed at yet another thing?
Yes
he failed at getting a wag to dog war started. Putin called his bluff and made him look like the jackass hi is.
‘The brand is so toxic’: Dems fear extinction in rural US

SMETHPORT, Pa. (AP) — Some Democrats in rural Pennsylvania are afraid to tell you they’re Democrats.
The party’s brand is so toxic in the small towns 100 miles northeast of Pittsburgh that some liberals have removed bumper stickers and yard signs and refuse to acknowledge publicly their party affiliation. These Democrats are used to being outnumbered by the local Republican majority, but as their numbers continue to dwindle, those who remain are feeling increasingly isolated and unwelcome in their own communities.
“The hatred for Democrats is just unbelievable,” said Tim Holohan, an accountant based in rural McKean County who recently encouraged his daughter to get rid of a pro-Joe Biden bumper sticker. “I feel like we’re on the run.”
The climate across rural Pennsylvania is symptomatic of a larger political problem threatening the Democratic Party heading into the November elections. Beyond losing votes in virtually every election since 2008, Democrats have been effectively ostracized from the overwhelmingly white parts of rural America, leaving party leaders with few options to reverse a cultural trend that is redefining the political landscape.
the democrat party is dying. 30 incumbents have now punched out. The number is likely to reach 40 before too long.
democrats are going to lose an historic amount of seats in the House in November.
If I was a Democrat right now, I wouldn’t be.
Meanwhile, back in reality: Judge says Trump and two adult children must testify in New York attorney general probe
It’s not Joe Biden who needs a distraction, is it?
I love the smell of democrat political desperation in the morning.
Letitia is a dumb f’er. She has no idea how loans and property ownership work. Stupid black swill.
another puppet from nazi lover soros
Careful, your true nature is showing.
And I love it that Trump, Donnie Jr, and Ivanka are going to be questioned about their financial dealings, in court, under oath, because it’s about damn time.
Lie before the judge, and there will be consequences.
Let’s get crackhead “smartest guy I know” Hunter under oath and question him about influence peddling and extortion.
Not if they change their party to Democrat.

What real scumbags and their scumbag children looks like.
The “reality” of persecution and pursuing a fantasy. It’s a distraction FROM idiot Biden disasters and failures.
If you want to know what Biden is saying, turn on some actual news and listen to what he’s saying. Don’t rely on some mindless little right-wing twit to tell you.
God gave you a brain. Try using it.
Putin staging 150,000 Russian troops on the borders of sovereign nation that has no desire for war is not “a manufactured crisis”.
All because idiot Biden is the very picture of a weak, incompetent “leader” ripe to be taken advantage of. This is what election fraud produces.
I listen directly to what he is saying or, rather, what he tries to say. For instance, Blinken isn’t a Senator; he’s an incompetent Secretary of State.
I have no difficulty understanding him. Nor, sad to say, do I have any difficulty figuring you people out.
I fully understand he is an incompetent idiot that cannot put a cognitive sentence together. He is a mindless puppet of Obama and Soros, carrying out the ultimate collapse of a great nation.
You understand nothing.
I understand you support failure, corruption and incompetence over success and national security. You support criminals, liars and racists simply because they are Democrats. I understand far more than you would like me to.
What Biden can’t stop is the world’s laughter.
Meanwhile Biden-buddy New York Mayor Eric Adams says he wants to “slightly defund” the police.
