NOTE:
We looked the other way when Russia seized Crimea from Ukraine. We abandoned thousands of allies with US visas in Afghanistan, and gave up a huge air force base to the Afghans, and Chinese. In 1994, President Clinton and UK Prime Minister Major promised to defend Ukraine if they would give up their nuclear weapons. Ukraine trusted Bill Clinton and gave up their nukes. https://electioncircus.blogspot.com/2022/02/that-time-we-promised-ukraine-wed-have.html
Never trust a Clinton. Now "Adolph" Biden has done nothing to prevent a Russian invasion, and will do nothing to stop the invasion, which has begun tonight. Joe Biden is a true horse's ass, and our nation has once again broken a promise to defend an ally. Even a nation that put millions of dollars into degenerate Hunter Biden's pockets. Next stop, while dementia Joe Biden is still Prsident -- probably China takes over Taiwan. They'll know from carefully watching the US response to Russians in Ukraine what the consequences will be if they surround Taiwan with war ships, and then force the nation to surrender, followed by a takeover.

Martial law was imposed in Ukraine as the Russian troops moved in.
