Do those promised sanctions now and more arms quickly now to Ukraine or you will get clobbered politically.
Another Afghanistan misstep??
Read Ukraine President’s plea for sanctions NOW!
Zelensky doubles down on preemptive sanctions against Russia: “‘if we are talking about the sanctions policy and the probability of escalation, then the question is, why are you not introducing sanctions now rather than wait until after the escalation?’” https://t.co/TrZsmVNURY

What does General Milley suggest?
You are on the verge of screwing this up big time!
Sad, as the midterms are already looking very bad.
Sanctions now and massive arms shipments, both actions now may be too late, as once Putin takes Ukraine sanctions won’t get him out! He loves to gamble as the WSJ story tells us.
You have no idea what this Ukraine-Russia thing is and what Putin’s worldview has to do with it? This article will catch you up. Great background reading. https://t.co/3QgSRDeNYU

Russia already has a leader planned for Ukraine. See page one 1/23/22 NY Times story here.
This is a complex situation with experts offering multiple opinions, but Biden will seem weak and confused if Putin strikes and no clear outcome is seen. Sanctions will take time to materialize and are far from certain to work with Germany so dependent on Russian gas.
It will affect Biden’s current efforts to move dramatically on his domestic programs. So, Mr. President, get going now with action on the many clear alerts from Mr. Putin’s plan to implement his evil intentions.
