Another Ukraine blunder

By Mike Huckabee

Between his attacks on the US oil industry and his boosting of Russian oil, his projecting of weakness and incompetence on the international stage, his evacuation of our Ukrainian Embassy, and his blunder of virtually okaying a “minor incursion” into Ukraine, I thought there couldn’t possibly any more ways in which President Biden could set the stage for an invasion of Ukraine by Russia. But we shouldn't forget Barack Obama’s admonition to “never underestimate Joe’s ability to (bleep) things up.”

How about having your spokesperson announce to the adversary you’re trying to intimidate that “there is no intention or interest or desire by the President to send troops to Ukraine.”

Pretty bad bluffing. I’m not a betting man, but if I played poker for money, I would definitely want to play it with Joe Biden.

Apparently, the White House plans to scare Putin into line by launching a Twitter hashtag campaign called “#StandWithUkraine.” If Biden stands with Ukraine, why would he be doing so much to set it up to fall? It's understandable, though, since at this point, Putin would probably be more afraid of a Twitter mob than of Biden.

Also, it turns out we don’t even have a US ambassador in Ukraine to represent us or give us on-the-scene reports because even after more than a year in office, Biden has yet to get around to nominating one.

All things considered, I’m not at all surprised that Vladimir Putin has now progressed from ignoring the US to openly threatening us to stay out of his way.

When asked if Biden had any plans to nominate a Ukraine ambassador, press secretary Jen Psaki had no answer. I’m surprised she didn’t repeat her previous advice that this would be a very good time for everyone to drink a lot of margaritas.

    The MH Newsletter is excellent and is a go to source of news for me. Many things about the Biden Administration are troubling but one of the most troubling is the total inaction at securing the Southern Border. Of course this inaction is political in nature and is done because allowing the Southern Border to be overwhelmed with illegal immigrants is, somehow, seen as beneficial to dem politicians. It seems like the Administration is flagrantly violating existing Immigration laws designed to protect America. How can the Biden Administration continually break and ignore existing laws and, apparently, get away with it with impunity? Why don't the Governors of the affected states on the Southern Border take the Biden Administration to Court over its obviously illegal activities? Why doesn't the RNC take the Biden Administration to Court over its flagrant disregard of American law and the safety of the American people?

    If everyone is unified as Biden claims why is his administration working so hard to get NATO/Europeans on board? This is not our fight. Leave it to Germany and get us out of NATO. Of course Putin laughs at us. This is Cuba in reverse, imho.

    He wants hunter to be his ambassador to Ukraine. He already has experience collecting money.

    I am very afraid for our troops to be sent to Ukraine with the incompetent leaders we have in our military currently and on top of that they are taking orders from a commander in chief whose elevator does not go to the top floor. IF they are going to blindly follow him our young men are doomed and they are accomplices. One figure I heard was up to 50,000 soldiers past the first 8500. Do we even still have 50,000 in the military after the political and vaccine mandate purge? I am sorry for Ukraine and their people but we are not even controlling our own borders and we are being invaded every day down there. WE have 12 more months before there is even hope and look what has happened in the last 12. Will there be an America to save?

    How can Biden be such a miserable failure and still escape any threats of impeachment?

    I wouldn't play poker with Biden, even If I brought my own deck. After all he would have his "fraud team" there to make sure the game went legitimately. And we know how well that went last election!!!

    They don’t want an ambassador in Ukraine because of Biden’s Quid Pro Quo and crooked deals in Ukraine. He wants as few eyes and ears there as possible

    Dear Governor,
    I will be 70 years old in April and I have never seen such destruction to our country by the "ruling" party. I am to the thought that this Biden regime does everything with a purpose. I think Biden and his handlers are corrupt to the degree normal people can't believe how these evil minds think. The statement "Biden weighs deploying 8,500 troops to borders of Ukraine" has ALL the media focused on it like white on rice. Today the new attention diversion the announcement that Justice Breyer is retiring. This was to stop the left wing media bleeding on Biden. The commander and chief of the chocolate chocolate chip ice cream cone will sacrifice his time demanding schedule to pick the first black female Justice. If he doesn't send the troops and Putin is only bluffing he will receive accolades of undeserved praise. When he replaces a liberal justice with another liberal justice he will be worshipped by the press. This regime has to cheat and lie with everything they do. I ask myself and anyone who will listen how can this weak, lying, corrupt senile impostor be the president of my country? Everyone in Congress and the Senate know he a shameful failing tool but won't say it out loud. This is America not a puppet state. Our America no longer cherishes the Constitution. Our founding fathers would not recognizable what we have become. Washington no longer serves or represents our people. There is record inflation, record crime, record illegals entering our country, record censorship, division building to pre-Civil War hate, rumors of war and our freedoms being taken away in the name of manufactured disease by China. No more Dems or Rinos. I don't see any good coming from Biden or the left.

    I think it’s time we find out if Biden (or his wife & son) have stock in pharmaceutical mfg and or war equip/materials.
