Putin plots, Zelensky leaks as Biden dithers
As Vladimir Putin waits for his forces to take up their positions and China to have it's Olympic games, CNN reported that their beloved Joe Biden told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Thursday to brace his country for a certain Russian invasion. Biden supposedly told Zelensky that an invasion is virtually certain and to 'prepare for impact.' He said Kiev could be 'sacked' by Russian forces. He also reportedly said Ukraine would not be getting significantly more military help, including reiterating that no U.S. troops would be deployed there, nor would there be preemptive sanctions on Russia or any progress with NATO. A Ukrainian official told CNN that the call between the two leaders 'did not go well.'
The Week:
The Breyer retirement : This week Justice Stephen Breyer announced his retirement, which some might say was perfectly timed. It should give Biden and the democrats enough time to nominate and approve a candidate before the democrats get booted out of congress in the midterms. The only question is will the Biden nominee be a liberal in the mold of Breyer or a far left activist? Senator Mazie Hirono may have spilled the beans: Sen. Hirono: I want a justice "who will consider the impact, the effects of whatever decision-making is on people in our country so that they are not making decisions just based on — which I would like them to base it on law, which would be nice and precedent."
Jen Psaki just reaffirmed that the President will only consider a black woman for the next nomination -- a threshold gender and race condition that the Court itself has found unconstitutional for schools and unlawful for private businesses.
I can visualize the late Norm Macdonald reporting on the retirement on the old Weekend Update. It might go something like this: "Justice Stephen Breyer, who is still sharp as a tack announced his retirement today, while the always confused Joe Biden says he will stay on and run again!"
Fallen officers: Today NYC held funeral services for one of their finest.
"NYPD Police Officer Jason Rivera is getting a hero’s farewell at St. Patrick’s Cathedral. Thousands watched as the slain young cop’s body arrived Thursday at the historic Manhattan church in a police motorcade for his wake, ahead of Friday’s funeral service. A phalanx of New York’s Finest stood at attention in dress uniforms, as eight pallbearers carried Rivera’s casket up the steps and bagpipers pierced the silence with a moving rendition of “Amazing Grace. Church bells tolled as a second motorcade arrived with Rivera’s grieving family for a private viewing before the doors opened to the public.Inside, the body of the 22-year-old cop lay at the foot of the altar with his photo alongside an NYPD flag made of flowers."

Police officers continue to be the victims of a violent trend, as six officers were the victims of gun violence over just the past two days
The American left with it's radical DA's, demonizing & demasculinizing of the police, bail reform and defunding of the police is directly responsible.

Leaked videos of a mass release of migrants: This was also the week that the Biden administration was once again caught releasing unvetted & unvaxxed migrants into various communities within the US.
Minnie Mouse got ungendered this week. A much more masculine look.
We saw Canada's Freedom Convoy gaining international attention. Elon Musk, Joe Rogan, political figures, all voicing support.
We saw an anti-vaccine protest in DC.
We saw Dr Fauci for the very first time counter president Biden. His NIAID undercuts the boss by challenging school mask mandates
Here we heard the usual partisan support for the failing Biden and the lying Dr Fauci complete with name-calling and hyperbole. We have seen personal attacks of all kinds, this past week, most of which were thinly veiled charges of racism. Worst of all, we continue to see an awful lot of censorship.

“I am very concerned by the weak, incoherent message we just heard from [President Biden] on Ukraine,” tweeted Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.), the ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
We are all concerned!
Good morning to everyone except people who refuse to release the transcript!
Good wrap again Vic
As Cal Hubbard used to say "I call 'em as I see 'em!"
Oh I don't know Jim, Vic left out the Biden eating ice cream scandal that had FOX all in a tither.
Did he get 2 scoops? Then it would be a major media blitz.
Too bad you weren't here yesterday.
I'm quite sure yesterday was no different from today, you are one of the most predictable seeders/authors on NT.
That honor belongs to you.
Spot on.
Not at all.
Why not? Please respond with some substance instead of trolling.
No.

That's a lie Greg.
It's Faux 'news' who is responsible for that and the alleged conservatives/gop/gqp/republicans.
What is?
Are you all done adding to your comments?
Sen. Rand Paul: "If public health doctors wanted to save lives they would admit that naturally acquired immunity is protective and they would broadcast far and wide that early treatment saves lives."
Rand Paul is a moron. He is a glorified optometrist. I will take the advice of actual M.D.s over this optometrist.
Plus, what does that have to do with the topic of this 'article'?
The topic of this article is the events of last week.
He's an ophthalmologist, not an optometrist. There's a big difference between the two.
"There's a big difference between the two."
Not really, not in his case, at any rate.
No one would go to a glorified optometrist like him for advice on any scientific or medical matters. He's a moron. And a liar.
she did say "glorified". And he's not a board certified physician. He formed his own board with his own requirements. I doubt the AMA would have him as a member
[Deleted]
hate to say it tex , but i have to agree with her , i will take a board certified MDs recommendation over some internet wanna be . the caveate i have is i will take that drs recommendation that is familiar with my personal medical history over some media talking head government dr.
Now that might tick off and trigger some of the resident fascist authoritarian vaxxers , but they will have to learn to live with it .
Well, if you're in KY, you certainly can go to Rand Paul if you wish, because he IS board certified. BTW, the AMA neither grants nor revokes licenses.
Also ...
maybe i should have been clearer in who is a "wannabe ".
they would be those that demand others do when recommendations counter to what they desire happen , such as those that respond in a biased manner on social media of any kind ., and it is not limited to just those types of individuals .
end point is irregardless of what others may want , if one is following the recommendation of their personal dr , who is familiar with their personal med history , those squalling can go sit on a cactus with their demands .
An ophthalmologist is certainly an MD.
Some people aren't as smart as they pretend to be...or as nice
Like I said, in Paul's case, a glorified optometrist
Also, who'd go to any doctor who isn't licensed or give a shit what they thought on such important medical/scientific matters
Non board certified ophthalmologist = glorified optometrist

Minnie is Mickey in drag.
If you define dithering as not rushing into World War Three while gathering our forces, securing allies and negotiating his ass off then Biden can ditch away...
Unless you are so desperate to destroy our President that you are siding with our enemy you should agree...
Lol....Does anyone think we are going to go to war over the Ukraine?
while gathering our forces,
Putting 8,500 troops on high alert? To do what against the 125,000 Russian troops on Ukrainian soil?
securing allies
What allies? Are you talking about Germany? Or NATO? If someone was to invoke an Article 5 right now, it might bring NATO to it's complete end.
negotiating his ass off
He all but blessed the Russia to Germany pipeline. Negotiating is over.
That's what Joe Biden is doing regarding China and Russia. He has to, of course, because he, Hunter, and the Biden Syndicate are beholden to those countries.
Biden Syndicate??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
Do you think Joe Biden was "the big guy?"
Yes.
Me too!
Miranda Devine has done a fine job exposing the Biden crime syndicate. Too bad MSM buried her original Oct 2020 story, Big Tech social media banned it, and so many voters didn't read about it before voting in 2020.
I haven't read it yet. Have you?
Not yet. It's on my wish list.
Ditto.
You mean the President who took a few million from China (an enemy)? The same President that lifted sanctions against Russia (an enemy) and blessed off on the pipeline?
It's kind of telling that you all chirped and blathered on and on about Trump getting the US into WW3. Against all your wishing, it never happened. Now that YOUR President is in office we are stand a greater chance of a possible WW3 under Brandon than we did Trump. Funny how that works isn't it?
Biden is now in a strange position. He spent the 2020 campaign promising that he would stand up to Putin and “hold the Putin regime accountable for its crimes.” If Putin takes any territory from Ukraine, it will mean that the only president in the past thirteen years who didn’t stand by and watch as Putin invaded neighboring territory was the very President that democrats falsely claimed was a Russian agent!
yup , damned if he does , damned if he doesnt . thats what i see.
What would be a real surprising is if Biden pulls a kennedy esque move like in the missle crisis . simply tells vlad do as you think you must , but if invasion is what you do , your nutsack is immediately targeted with an ICBM. seems thats what some people understand .
Not that i think biden has the sack to pull that off. or that it would ever happen .
*entire post is meant sarcastically.
Kennedy never did anything like that. He secretly recognized Castro forever, promising never to invade and removed missiles from Turkey if Russia would take theirs out of Cuba. We were taught that was a win, but the win was for Khrushchev.
*entire post is meant sarcastically.
Well done!
I guess the President of Ukraine is colluding with Putin against Biden too?
It's amazing isn't it? I'm sure Biden would want to be able to concentrate on China (if he has an ounce of decency), but Putin smelled weakness and there is that problem the democrats created for themselves when it comes to Russia. For five years, the entire Democratic Party talked about Vladimir Putin as if he was the planet’s greatest monster. We could see them believing their own lies. Oddly enough the political party that was once soft on Russia has become hawkish on Russia.
So according to Peppermint Patty, Biden is going to select a new Chief Justice the same way he selected his VP - color over competence. This won't end well. We all see what a train wreck the VP is. Can you picture a judge on the Supreme Court cackling when a case come in front of them?
Jonathan Turley says it's unconstitutional and un-American.
Laura Ingraham says "Demand Democracy" (A Soros backed & funded group) has all but bought the Biden nominee.
So ... is Laura still all heels up when Keith drops by ... ?
Of course it is. Biden's using racial discrimination as his guidepost.
Of course it is. Not that they care.
How did we come to the point where a president ignores the law and undermines national security?
Ancient Rome went from a Republic to an Emperor in one generation.
That's exactly what I'd like to know about #45, the former 'president'
He's been ignoring the law and been undermining national security since before he became 'president' and after
Evidently, it's hard to prove.
I don't know, but Biden's doing a stellar job of "transforming America".
He had to break a few laws, but who's complaining?
correction , biden gets to choose a new SC justice , not a "CHIEF" justice , roberts isnt retiring that i know of .
And TAHT is the only problem you saw in my statement?
well actually yes , the rest is pretty factual , when choices are made based on race or gender , it usually ends up as a train wreck. one no one can not watch .

So, I've heard. That was another lifetime, as I recall.
Thanks anyway.
read last night that canadian convoy , might break the guiness book of records for longest convoy , claiming it was 70 km long.
thing is , the US still has in place that those crossing the border need to be vaxxed .
2 top Democrats have scheduling conflicts and won't meet Biden in Pennsylvania today, report says (msn.com)
ruh-roh
This comes right after Democrats, including Stacey Abrams, suddenly had "scheduling conflicts" when Biden invited them to his speech in Georgia. Can't wait to hear how Psaki will spin out of this new PA rejection!
The Open Society Foundations, a group founded by George Soros, is pushing back on a recent documentary by Tucker Carlson taking aim at Soros and his relationship with his homeland of Hungary, The Washington Post reports .
Carlson’s “Hungary vs. Soros: The Fight for Civilization,” which was created for the Fox Nation streaming service, pits Soros against Hungarian right-wing prime minister Viktor Orbán.
Carlson says that Soros, a liberal billionaire whose Open Society Foundations says it aims to improve democracies and make governments accountable, “is waging a kind of war — political, social and demographic war — on the West.”
The Fox host asserts that the group is “trying to eliminate national borders, to oust democratically elected leaders, and install ideologically aligned puppets into positions of power.”
Open Society Vice President Laura Silber told the Post that Soros and his group “have worked for more than 30 years to support vibrant and inclusive democracies whose governments are accountable to the people they serve.”
“Mr. Carlson appears to prefer authoritarian rule, state capture of media and the courts, crony corruption and rigged elections,” she said.
Carlson defended the documentary episode during his Fox News show on Thursday night, saying Soros and Orban have been at "loggerheads for years."
"And so we thought that was interesting enough, enough of a metaphor for the struggle that is going on globally between nationalists and people who oppose them. We thought it was worthy of our season finale documentary for our series Tucker Carlson Originals," he said.
He also responded to pushback, saying, "You have a right to know exactly what George Soros is doing to this country and to other countries around the world and we think we have an obligation to tell you, so we are going to continue to."

Fox Nation has many excellent, informative series.
As for George Soros - He's been known as a bad actor for decades. He's anti-American and anti-Semitic. His money is behind the elections of soft-on-crime DAs in Democrat-run cities.
BUZZ NOTES:
1. If Russia does in fact do a massive military invasion of the Ukraine (Kiev was my mother's birthplace) I would not be surprised if Xi Jinping were to decide to use the occasion for a military invasion of Taiwan.
2. Obviously Biden is concerned that the Democrats are going to be losers at the midterms since he has Breyer retiring well before he should. Not exactly a show of confidence.
3. The vast proliferation of guns and the inadequacy of gun controls and failure of mental health services are the REAL reasons for the record gun violence in the USA, not defunding the police.
4. Canada imposed a vax mandate on truckers, because it doesn't welcome anyone thumbing their nose at the necessity of vaccination in order to curb the spreading of the virus and importing it to Canada. I agree with the mandate - fuck the antivaxxers, even if they're truck drivers. What isn't reported so broadly is that major truck driver associations AGREE with the mandate.
As for your #4 i see 3 different groups , those that are vaxxed that demand EVERYONE get vaxxed (hint , not going to happen ) those that dont want the vax and are against the mandates ( anti vaxxers ) and that 3rd group that have for one reason or another been advised by competent medical authority NOT to get the current vaxes . I happen to be a member of the 3rd group , as well as a CDL holder that is qualified to drive just about anywhere i wish to .
I personally trust my personal physician's advice to NOT get these vaxxes since she is aware of MY personal medical history, over some generic government agencies advice that has no clue to anyones medical histories.
Even IF i were vaxxed as a driver , I still would have the choice on what loads and where i would go , safe to say that areas of illness surges would be way off that list .after all the vax is doing nothing to stop one from getting ill , or passing it on .they are still contagious to everyone else even if it is minimal . so no guarantee i would be doing anything to help deliver goods to those areas . being im not vaxxed on advice of my PP, its all but guaranteed i wont be delivering to the harder hit areas such as the major population centers or higher density living areas . They dont want me in because i wont get vaxxed even though i was advised that by competent authority , and i dont want to be near them because they are sick or carriers . i dont need to deal with the karen or kyle shicklegrubbermanns . and they can go fornicate with a barrel cactus .
Hope there is a plan C or D because the plan B i see is a smokescreen .at least in this country .
as for 1 and 2 , if those come about i would say get ready to welcome WW4 or 5,depending on how one thinks . we already had WW3 , we called it the cold war , im debating if we should call the supposed war on terror WW4 or not since it did include just about every nation on earth to some point . but you get my drift .
No kidding. Why wouldn't Xi take advantage of the worst president in the history of the US being in office. Any country that has a problem with China taking Taiwan would find itself instantly cutoff off from semi and super conductor chips.
The only question left is how much of an anti-Constitutional far leftist nut job Biden thinks he can force through the Senate. He realizes that this will be the last Supreme Court justice he gets to put in place. After midterms Republican will rightfully stone wall him.
Someone else that believes that criminals will honor any laws. It isn't a lack of gun laws we have. Chicago has the most stringent gun laws in the US; and it is a war zone. It is DA's that refuse to prosecute gun laws.
Speaking as someone who was advised by their doctor not to get the vaccine (which it never should be labeled as); both the US and Canada can take their mandates and stick them where the sun won't shine and the rain won't go. These are not vaccines. Vaccines actually prevent you from getting the disease they are intended for. The Covid "vaccines" do not prevent you from getting Covid; they do not prevent you from transmitting Covid to others; and they only "may" diminish the affects of Covid. They are also losing their efficiency with each new strain of Covid that comes along. The amount of break through cases caused by the Omicron variant have proven that.
Truck drivers are doing a valuable service transporting goods and keeping the economy flowing. There are not nearly enough of them as it is. Diminishing their numbers even further is a sure case of leftist morons wanting to destroy their countries. The US should ship a few million unvetted and unvaccinated illegals from our southern border directly into Canada. Then everyone could see the Canadian government for the hypocrisy as the Biden administration.
1. I never thought of that - control of most of the world's computer chips.
2. Biden's show of non-confidence will convince the voters to make him a lame duck after the midterms.
3. I've said more than once it's too late to do anything in the USA other than to make sure everyone is armed in order to protect themselves.
4. Good reason to create and use autonomous trucks.
I am all for autonomous vehicles; on the day that computers can out think, and out react all humans. Until then there are far too many variables for most human drives; much the less a computer. When that happens computers will be able to do the jobs of most humans; and we won't be needed anymore.
when it comes to autonomous vehicles , thats still a long way in the future and us alive today will never see it fully implemented..
the issues it faces is infrastructure , oh i think in the more densely populated areas , it "might " come about sooner , but not by much .
it will actually come down to what can actually be done , that actually works in ALL areas feasably.
be real here , first there has to be a set track for these vehicles , so that means sensors along the route that are reliable and can not be messed with by weather or people , now the optimum is that the vehicle also be green so now you need charging stations , or at the least somewhere to swap batteries on EV powered ones all things that are not there .
as i said this idea is still very far away in the future , and still very much in its infancy .
Would not surprise me either if China invaded Taiwan.. thought of that one ages ago when Russia and China has become all palsy walsy all of a sudden..
My SIL is from Kiev and has family in Ukraine so we are watching the situation very closely...
If the timing is wrong China can kiss goodbye to the Olympics...
I can't make up my mind about which of these two possibilities is going to happen, but in any event no way China is going to kiss goodbye to these Winter Olympics - only a world war or an actual invasion of China would prevent it from happening.
1. Russia holds off doing anything serious during the Olympics because it would cause a serious rift between China and Russia
2. Russia uses the Olympics as a cover to make his move and invade the Ukraine - as he has done before at least twice - Crimea and Georgia.
I think there is an easy way to figure it out .
Has vlad ever shown he really cares what China thinks ?
and what has his past actions shown ?
kinda whittles it down there . BUT , we are still saying IF , nothing says anything is going to happen at all.
I saw the Mayor of Kiev on with Brian Kilmeade this evening on his new show on Fox News and he discussed the issue and gave a good account of the situation. Kilmeade asked him if he’d fight to defend his city and he said that he’d rejoin his military to defend his country from a foreign aggressor.
Gavin Newsom and all the Democrats have the state in a State of Emergency - students have to be masked all day. But they don’t.
Man, as if a $725,000 first prize weren’t enough.
Until next year's handicapping contest:
To the Grand Game of Racing!
All good things must come to an end.
