Pres Biden says there is unity between NATO allies as regards escalating tensions in Russian-Ukraine crisis. As the US warned, Russia is launching phony allegations of Ukrainian aggression in separatist regions.
These allegations are being used by Russia to falsely justify invading Ukraine, according to Pres Biden. The US believes a Russian invasion can & may take place within days, but the US & allies will hold Russia accountable for its actions.

Pres Biden makes clear that Russia can choose diplomacy instead of a war of choice that will yield grave consequences.
In a sobering assertion, Pres Biden says he believes Putin has made the decision to invade Ukraine. Diplomacy remains a possibility, but based on intelligence capability, "an attack by Russia on Ukraine will come within the coming days."
Pres Biden's mood was bleak. That Pres Biden says that Russia may invade Kyiv is terrifying. We are at a dark moment in modernity.

Any Democrats running for office in 2022 who is not hugging Pres Biden is committing political malpractice.

As @danpfeiffer says perfectly: “Ridin’ with Biden” is the only option for 2022."

"A midterm strategy based on criticizing the President and performative demonstrations of distance will have the opposite effect. These moments will weaken Biden and weakness makes our chances of winning reelection worse, not better." - @danpfeiffer
In 2022, our top strategic imperative is to reconstitute the coalition that took the House in 2018 & the WH & Senate in 2020. It’s hard to see how running away from or trashing the Democratic President is a good way to accomplish that goal - @danpfeiffer

You know what is insanity? Watching Republicans destroy this country cycle after cycle, to the point democracy itself is on the brink, & privileged people like you threatening to withhold your vote. There is only 1 pro-America team in town & it is the Democrats. #VoteBlueIn2022
Election after election, there is always some privileged fool with their cynical bullshit about no one earning their vote. They are part of the vote suppression caucus & they're doing the tacit dirty work of the GOP. if you're not #votingBluein2022, you are part of the problem.
I write about elections across the world for a living where people risk life & limb to exercise the right to vote, hoping that one day, they will get their democracy dividend. And so they show up to vote.

This is the sound of entitlement talking ⬇️

On Oct 3 2021, the writer of this article went after Biden who was visiting the graves of his children. Now she's claiming Biden, who buried 2 children & a wife, "uses" funerals for political utility. Annie Linskey remains a terrible person with no empathy for people who grieve.
I would note that the actual article by Linksey is more nuanced than the actual summary disseminated by the Washington Post on Twitter. As a newspaper of record, one would expect better. As for the journalist, most of us cannot forget this. He went to see the graves of his kids! Image
One wonders about journalists who are more interested in an angle & a story, than about the fact that death devastates us, grief mires us, & we have a president who understands that-- especially at a time of pandemic when death is a daily reminder.

Kevin McCarthy's hack speech on the House floor is lasting longer than some of my marriages.
LOL, McCarthy is comparing Biden's presidency to Carter's. Dude. Biden is the modern FDR.

- American Rescue Plan, BIF, & now BBB to be passed
- US econ added 531K jobs in Oct in rebound from Sept
- Unemployment from 6.3% in Jan to 4.6%
- 80% of jobs lost in pandemic recovered
McCarthy is giving the GOP greatest hits -- he's now crying about us being out of Afghanistan, as if Trump didn't sign the withdrawal agreement; there was also Green new Deal, the border, masks....This is why booze was made.

The CBO score shows that BBB will DECREASE the deficit. As well, leading rating agencies have said that BBB will not add to inflationary pressures. As such there is NO reason not to pass President Biden's BBB agenda.

Pass the bill and lets #BuildBackBetter !!
The only reasons one would have for NOT passing BBB are that you want President Biden's agenda to fail irrespective of how it HELPS America & you don't want to tax the rich.

ALWAYS Vote Democratic. The stakes are clear.

Don't fall for any sudden concern about debt & deficits by the GOP. Those fuckers passed the biggest tax scam bill-a vulgar transfer of wealth from working people to the scandalously-rich donor class without a thought to borrowed $. They just need to STFU.
