    Did you notice that going to war with russia ISN'T one of the options i listed?

    But one of your own friends on this board just said Biden should have threattened to use nukes and other conservatives have suggested similar posturing.

    It is over. The UN is impotent. The current US regime is dangerously incompetent. NATO has no obligation here and is rightfully afraid of provoking the Russians further, when none of the NATO countries is interested in going to war over this.

    Any further sanctions or embargos at this point are very likely going to backfire and are likely to hurt us more than them.

    That's it. The fat lady is singing.

    Ted Cruz won't defend his wife or his dad, but he will defend Putin.

    the best way to cripple a petrostate is increase fossil fuel production and tank the price

    so of course, Biden and Europe did the exact opposite

    Well, to be fair: Does Tucker have a call-in segment? I honestly don't know.

    Kyiv apparently has a missile defense system of some sorts. Ultimately the Russians will have way too much force but the Ukrainians are definitely putting up a fight.

    Sad, but true. It's disgusting that he is a Senator for Texas.

    Trump asked Saudi Arabia & Russia to cut production to raise oil prices - yet you claim Biden did it.

    I don't know if you realize this - but Russia and Saudi Arabia pushed oil prices down to drive US shale producers out of the market.

    You need to actually learn what happened in history and not become a blame Biden bot.

    Weird how that’s worded almost exactly like Michael Flynn’s statement.


    Wait…is this going to be the right’s next move? Saying it’s not actually happening?

    Biden has been killing domestic fossil fuel production.

    I agree Trump was dumb to ask OPEC to reduce production.
