#1 DEFCON 3 achieved as of 28 Feb 2022. Anybody think if this happens we won't see a National Emergency Declaration by Biden being considered?

#4 Why are getting involved in this conflict? They may be crazy but the Russians obviously think it's a matter of national survival for them. Ukraine means nothing to us. Putin is axwar criminal but he is not going to lose power and his army is not going to lose this war. How does it benefit America to risk nuclear war over Ukraine?

#5 But, but, but, anything could happen. Declare martial law. Cancel the upcoming elections. Ration gasoline. End automobile production (Electric cars excluded of course). Institute wage and price controls. Restrict foreign travel. Restrict domestic travel. Nationalize the FOX news network. Expand the Selective Service System by 80,000 employees (formerly pending IRS hire).

In related news, if accurate, it seems that Putin is increasingly acting like a very very angry man who has seen the massive mistake he made in his reliance on FSB/SVR/GRU/unknown sources. My read is he doesn't handle failure well, just deeper grinding, but is there an increasing Gotterdamerung risk?

#9 Clearly with all the money Ukraine has paid his bagman low rent son...he's into Ukraine bigtime. Sadly...we're left holding the bag..
