Subject: US has no good options in Ukraine
Biden announced announced sanctions on a major Russian bank VEB and its military bank.
The sanctions will prohibit American financial institutions from processing transactions for VEB and its military bank. This will effectively cut the banks out of transactions involving U.S. dollars, the global reserve currency.
Biden also announced that the United States will implement sanctions on Russia’s sovereign debt.
“That means we’ve cut off Russia’s government from Western financing,” Biden said in remarks at the White House. “It can no longer raise money from the West and cannot trade its new debt on our markets. or European markets either.”

The Hill published an article letting us know Cardi B's opinion on the Russian invasion. No, I'm not going to post a link to their clickbait, just wanted to register how ridiculous the media environment is.

and here is the additional land grab - the full areas of Donetsk and Luhansk regions (those occupied in 2014 + the areas currently under Ukrainian control) + demilitarize Ukraine, no nato and no Eu (which basically means another land grab will be imminent in a few years when the dust of this war has settled).

Anyone remember that Biden gaffe?
It was not false. Biden negotiated away those 2 regions several months ago. The Biden/Putin plan was always to let Russia have those 2 regions.
Nothing else will happen if Russia stops there.
Try again.
Jon Finer, the US deputy national security adviser, told CNN an invasion of Ukraine is underway. "An invasion is an invasion and that is what is underway," Finer said.
Also,
Russia's upper house of parliament has given President Putin permission to use military force outside the country.
In a letter to the Russian upper house of parliament, President Putin formally asked lawmakers to approve the use of Russian military force outside the country.
The move formalizes a Russian military deployment to Moscow-backed separatist regions in eastern Ukraine, Donetsk and Luhansk, a day after Putin recognized their independence.

Biden: “A minor incursion is not an invasion.“
PP: do you own or can you access a map of Ukraine?

No, the public has not seen the transcripts of those calls.
Trump went to particularly great lengths to keep his in-person conversations with the Russian leader private, from confiscating his interpreter’s notes to forgoing American translators and notetakers altogether in their meetings. That desire for secrecy has extended even past his time in office. One former Trump official argued last week that records of Trump’s conversations with Putin, which often lasted an hour or more, should not be made available to his successor.
“There are certain things a president and his immediate staff should be able to hold privileged to do the work of government, without being subject to constant partisan gamesmanship,” said a second former Trump White House official.
