After going to Russia, hat in hand, asking them to increase oil output (having policies that hamstrung domestic oil producers and reversed the US's status as a net energy exporter to once again an energy importer), Resident Biden "warns" Russia not to invade Ukraine. Sadly, unlike under the previous president, the US no longer projects strength on the international stage. The Biden regime projects weakness and incompetence, and Putin's response is befitting that perception.
Even the liberal WaPo has to admit that under Biden, Ukraine is in a precarious position.

The tense Ukraine standoff is a case study in diplomatic signaling that, thus far, hasn’t worked. For weeks, senior U.S. and European officials have warned Russian President Vladimir Putin to pull back what looks ominously like an invasion force — or face harsh consequences from a U.S.-led coalition.
The warning message hasn’t connected. Instead, Putin seems to be relishing the West’s anxiety. He claimed [last] Thursday that the United States and its allies were ignoring Russia’s “red lines” and “escalating the situation” with shows of force. . . .Putin’s goal seems to be restoration of Moscow’s Soviet-era hegemony over Kyiv.
Nearly 100,000 Russian troops have massed along the border, according to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This faceoff continued Thursday. U.S. officials didn’t detect any change in the Russian military presence, up or down.
Biden's gwo biggest acts as president was the cancellation of the Keystone Pipeline and the approval of the Russian pipeline. Both reversals of Trump policies, both absolute disasters for America.
