Hey Hallie, You look great when you wear Black but I think that you would look better if you wore color once and awhile.
Green or something?

“Call on the Lord in the day of trouble,
and he will deliver you”
– Psalm 50 :15
Josh Letterman is an unbelievably poor journalist. The sanctions were never intended to prevent the Russian invasion of the Ukraine. But deter by definition means to discourage, not necessarily prevent. The sanctions can discourage the continued war effort of the Russians. And what neither Hallie and Josh are hearing is what Biden is saying, which is that even if Putin left the Ukraine tomorrow, the sanctions would continue. This is a strong threat that is intended to demonstrate to Russia that there will be long term consequences to what has been done thus far, which is what you’d do that is all but short of direct military engagement. And to Hallie’s and Josh’s point that Putin doesn’t care about being kicked out of the G8, etc., yes he cares greatly, and so does the Russian oligarchy. All these sanctions will have a long term effect on the Russian economy. And everyday that Russia gets more deeply mired in the war and suffers continued economic sanction, the Russian people edge ever closer to all out revolution.
And not laying out exact responses to the Russian’s use of chemical warfare or even tactical nuclear weapons has the effect of not showing your hand. By not clearly delineating what the NAT0 response is keeps Putin in the dark. It is often what you don’t say that gives you power in these situations. Not speaking can be a position of power, not weakness. For one, whatever our response, militarily we don’t want to shown our hand because it gives our adversaries an advantage. And two, telling Putin what we’ll do allows Putin to analyze and prepare his next steps. Negotiating through sound bites is just going to paint us into a corner and limit our options. Putin’s every move involves a calculus of what the Ukrainians do and what the USA and NAT0 does. He’s not acting without considering what the consequences will be and right now he’s in the dark as he should be.
And the bad news for Putin is that the longer this plays out, the more Russia loses, and the more the Russian people will grow weary of Putin’s leadership. This idea that the sanctions were going to yield immediate results shows Letterman’s naiveté in matters of foreign policy.
Political leader lean on every word the White House says and twist it up.I would like to see these politicians run this country right now see how they’ll y
It all sounds good but sanctions are a double edge sword that cuts both ways and does very little to protect Ukraine.
Putin knows he has no other solution. He’s backed into a cornor with only one way out. Dammed if you do. Dammed if you don’t.
Ukraine is too close to his own borders and he has no other option but to take back the control he lost in 2014 when the US instituted their regime change.
It’s now just a matter of time before the world leaders have to decide whose side they’re on.
That depends on how long they are willing to suffer the consequences of Americas double edged sword.
To every action there is an equal opposite reaction. 2014 was the US reaction to Russian control over Ukraine. 2022 is Russia’s reaction. The international sanctions was The US response and what comes next will be the worlds reaction. It’s a global pandemic now and I’m not sure if it was not a crafty idea to user in a global change by some power intent on a self motivated agenda.
Humans are very emotional creatures that are easily minuplated into self destructive actions, when fueled by fears, hatred and greed. Those 3 weaknesses are their most vulnerable traits.
Control them strategically and you can own operate and control the human species. Someone is pulling mans strings. Hopefully they have the best interest of mankind in mind.
Russia will take back control of Ukraine. The sanctions will remain if force beyond the suggested time table, the less fortunate countries and Americans will soon react to the supply and demand changes. The media will try to direct the direction of the people’s anger. But the hunger will be far more difficult a problem. The war will be over and they will demand the lifting of the sanctions.
That’s when the real problem will hit the fan.
@@awumdah Sanctions affect both sides, agreed, but we’ve had sanctions on Venezuelan and Iranian oil for year and no one was complaining. Besides, the USA produces enough oil to meets its energy needs, so much so that we also export oil.
Sanction have played a role in US foreign policy since before both of us were born. Why are people like you so opposed to them now? Even Trump turned to raising import taxes on the Chinese.
Putin’s problems are self-inflicted. He’s worth $200 billion by fleecing the Russian people. His military is a shell of what it once was because people like Putin and the Russian oligarchy have stolen all of Russia’s resources. So while Russian are primarily living at or below the poverty line, Ukrainians are/were thriving.
It’s a false dichotomy to say that Putin had no other option than to invade the Ukraine. That sort weak fallacy will not yield the type of results you seek. And simply stating that the USA influenced leadership changes in the Ukraine is also underserving of a serious response. Facts over feelings.
America’s double edged sword? That doesn’t make sense to me. I can’t read your mind. Please develop that thought a little better if you’re looking for a response.
To every action there’s an equal and opposite reaction. That only applies to Newton’s 3rd law. Not every human endeavor produces an equal response. For example, the USA laid waste to Iraq. Iraq has not had a similar response to the USA.
Pandemic? That is missing key points. Flesh your thoughts out a little better if you want a response.
Russia invading the Ukraine has a much longer history than 2014. Most of Ukraine fell to Russian rule during the reign of Catherine the Great in the 18th Century. And in the 20th Century the Ukraine was the USSR’s after dinner mint following WWII. Nope, the Russian’s have a tendency toward imperialism. Know your own history, comrade.
Humans are emotional… agreed, as made evident by your emotive arguments.
The facts of what’s happening in places like the Ukraine, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan has less to do with national security and more to do with acquiring resources from less powerful nations, and nothing to do with fear, except as a propaganda ploy. Russia and the USA are pretty much corporate bullies and will take whatever increases it’s influence, power, resources, and bottom line. These are all business decisions.
Read Maj. Gen., Smedley Darlington Butler’s _War is a Racket_ for a better understanding of world affairs.
Russia is facing decades of economic ruin. And whatever benefit that can reap after a protracted war in the Ukraine will not be out weighed by the amount of suffering Russians will face domestically. I work with some Russian vendors that I can no longer buy from. They are cut off.
Putin has create a big mess. Now he wants to suggest he’s ready to use tactical nuclear weapons. The lingering question is whether his nuclear arsenal has been maintained as poorly as his troop carriers and tanks.
It’s not looking good for Russia… because the USA broke the Anti-ABM treaty of 1972 and has been quietly developing its nuclear missile shield technology since Reagan. The Pentagon has funneled trillions to contractors in the past 4 decades via DARPA to develop that technology. It’s black money. It will not show up in the defense budget, but it’s there. It’s part of why the Pentagon cannot provide an accounting of it’s budget. And if you have any question about, look no further than Israel’s Iron Shield.
Russia is in for a surprise. They’re a corrupt and failed state. Great people with terrible leadership.
That’s correct the opposite reaction is not equal. Planting seeds has an opposite reaction though it’s far from equal.
Many things that happened 100’s even thousands of yrs ago have direct and indirect effects on humanity’s present beliefs and reactions.
Your reaction to my views are an example. The sanction effect touched you personally as another example of the sword that cuts both ways.
The belief in that America is outside the grid and self sustained would be an error. Many of Her necessities depend on outside imports. The chain reaction of sanctions is largely part of the weakness in the purchasing power of many currencies and the rise in prices in and out of America.
The out come of powerful nations are, like world champions in a competition, not so easily predicted. An act of war is a big decision and we can only assume the real intention of those with the power to make them.
Historically it’s the oligarchy and they are fully aware of the possibilities. I’m sure they calculated their cost.
The main objective is to direct the blame on the opposition to maintain the favor of your own sheeple.
As to the military strength of the engaged, parties, one can only look at pass performance if there is anything to gage the possible outcome.
Russia and China don’t have any reliable data. They haven’t engaged heavily in warmongering of late. The U.s. has some reliable historical history but not against equal combatants.
The results in Vietnam and the middle east are not very impressive. I wouldn’t even try to predict the results of a full scale war against the present super powers. There are a lot of silent enemies that would welcome a change.
Let’s just hope it doesn’t reach that level. The actions and reactions with today’s tecnology would leave mankind faced with a completely new world and years of recovery, if recovery was even possible.
Newton’s law doesn’t equate the natural responce of nature’s way of expansion. So it’s true that reaction though inevitable is not equal, and not predictable in this situation.
Whose right or wrong dosen’t really matter. Blood has been spilled and America can’t be blamed. What they do to maintain their position in the world, fully depends upon how they react now. Sanctions is not the expected defense when we look at the saber rattling in the seas just prior to Russia calling their bluff. That move brought the world into the situation. Maybe it was all part of the strategy?
What ever. Plan for the worse and hope for the best.
OLE FLIMSEY HAMM!!!!

Why doesn’t some god of some sort come here and sort us out?

Why wouldn’t Putin use phosphorus bombs? He isn’t feeling Any Sanctions nor does he care about Ukrainians or Anyone else! He knows Nothing Will be done to him.
Tiger teams&the jack pine Savages are ready and waiting 🇺🇲
Chaos.
We can give Ukraine billions just that fast but we can’t pass an infrastructure bill in America for our country or help the homeless in Amerikkka 🤨🤨🤨🤨… Nevermind get true police reform 🤨🤨🤨
Sooooo, in other words: You’re saying that you’d rather have Russia bomb some of our roads and bridges… just so that we could pass an infrastructure bill quickly.
Annnnd, in other words: You’re saying that you’d gladly pay more in taxes so that we can spend more money on homeless programs. Right?
And just FYI: The U.S. spends $7.5 billion/year on homeless, $80 billion/year on food programs (SNAP), and $1.2 trillion/year on health care (Medicare/Medicaid).
@@gatsbylight4766 I’m saying…. If you look at the yearly budget for the military just by itself…. You would see we have all money we need… And if Amerikkka didn’t start so much sh*t.. (we’re the main instigator on the planet) we wouldn’t have to worry about being bombed!
@@gatsbylight4766 and if we didn’t have so much government waste and corporations not paying taxes robbing everybody we would have everything we need but of course that’s too simple for rich people… everybody wants power and want to stand on everybody else neck instead of standing together are you in that group! Being the richest country on Earth it’s not about if we do have the money it’s about where our country decides to spend the money!!!

Biden, Scholz and Stoltenberg are at fault for this massacre by way of showing/provoking Putin he could take Ukraine. They’re just as guilty of war crimes as Putin. They should’ve given Ukraine anti air defence arms, aircrafts, other supplies in excess.
However it’s clear that Baiden is in business with Putin.
He made a deal with UK, Russia and China,why do you think he took the 💰 before the war started? He sold us out, All for money to him..they give him million’s and he gives them billions and at the same time throws us into disaster and poverty with no help for the American people, it’s a crime by mad Men to take us down… The war is a distraction so we won’t know what’s really going on..taking america….for what? World order… Bull sh_t!!! He’s a trader to the U.S.A. and our people that’s my opinion
Protest outside Oil company executive’s houses and treat them and their family members as if they were US vote officials .
Photos of Russian oligarchs and their yachts are shown in the media. Where are the photos of American oil executives ?
$US1.7 Trillion was spent on the multi-failed F-35 fighter jets. That is enough to house ALL the US homeless 29 times over .
Last year a F-35 jet crashed due to failure. This year a F-35 jet crashed into the South China sea while trying to land on a big carrier.
1 BOUNTY, 1 PUTIN, 1 BUNKER, SEAL THE EXITS. Fight the Boss NOT the Employees .
Poland is the land of Auschwitz Birkenau and Krakow Plaszow extermination camps but yet it helps Ukraine .
End this boring pinky war! Europe’s love of killing and racism displays a ‘stupidity gene’ within European DNA .
American media are using Ketanji and Ukraine as a distraction from it’s 1,002,236 Covid deaths pandemic mismanagement!
Cyber attacks make American aircraft carriers, battleships, jets & tanks nothing more than trillion dollar scrap metal.

“Putin is the enemy of humankind. What Putin’s done in Ukraine has significantly reduced his chances of remaining in power much longer,” says exiled Russian oligarch Khodorkovsky, formally the richest man in Russia. He was given 10 years in prision by Putin but look how many years a poor nurse is facing here.
“A nurse in Tennessee faces up to 12 years in prison for a medical error that resulted in the death of a 75 year old patient. Nurses nationwide worry: “Will I be next?” The covid pandemic has left countless nurses exhausted, demoralized and more prone to error. Young nurses have died from covid trying to help save countless covid patients.
RaDonda Vaught is charged with reckless homicide after a medication error killed a patient. She was distracted by a trainee while operating the computerized malfunctioning medication cabinet. “I know the reason this patient is no longer here is because of me,” Vaught said, starting to cry. “There won’t ever be a day that goes by that I don’t think about what I did.” The Tennessee Board of Nursing revoked her license ending her nursing career. The civil case- monetary damages, have been paid.”
Putting nurse Vaught in prison would serve no purpose except to waste taxpayers hard earned money and discourage nurses from filing the much needed jobs in the medical profession. Nurses put themselves in harm’s way even for those that get sick from not following medical advice. We all feel safer when heroic nurses are there when we and our children need them. Do we want to discourage and lose more of these caring courageous individuals?
So what is going on inside Yemen was there any war crimes there and who done this, sounds like the USA is going to us chemical weapons and blame Russia!
A cease fire while we put back up generators in the nuclear power plants. The installation of small Edison generators and dynamos power plants can stabilize the nuclear power plants. They do not have diesel powered back up generators. There has been a nuclear power plant with backup generators and none were installed after 3 mile island in the USA.
A cease fire while we examine the use of chemical weapons in Syria.
A cease fire while we examine the use of nuclear weapons by the US.
A cease fire while we examine the use of biological weapons by the US.

*Soooooo, let me get this straight:* Dude named Trump *admits (eventually) to taking a meeting to WORK WITH RUSSIANS TO GET DIRT ON HILLARY CLINTON,* now wants to sue Hillary Clinton because she said that he worked with Russians.
Punitive sanctions on Putin has double up for US/EU in economies. US heading for recession by may.
All those millions and billions the president giving away to Ukraine should be spending here on gas everyone in the country should get that $400 every single registered driver should get that amount of money we didn’t start any war in Ukraine 🤔
