Yup...

 

U.S. is 'fully prepared' if Russia invades Ukraine, secretary of state says

"While Blinken hasn't ruled out sanctions, Vindman is convinced they won't work.

"Russia's actually hardened against sanctions," Vindman said. "In addition to a hardening against economic sanctions, in addition to indigenizing technologies and supply chains to Russia. So being less concerned about what comes in from the U.S., being less concerned about what comes in from Europe, they've also built a massive war chest — $620 billion — that gives them a significant cushion to ride through some of these sanctions."

Somebody was saying the same thing last Sunday Morning. 

Yup.

Plus they don't have a national debt. None.

I look like a a "former director for European affairs at the U.S. National Security Council." to you?

It's the reason Blinken isn't saying what were gonna do if they do invade Ukraine. Cause there's nothing we can really do. Theses guys (Russians) or their actors, can cripple our electric grid and Biden and Blinken and lots of others know it. They're just trying to make it seem like everything is just the same old status quo as always but its not. This is the first time in my lifetime Russia has came forth and just absolutely demanded things first in negotiations. And they've been downright gleeful about it at times. 

Why?

Because they can cripple the grid, perform financial sector cyber attacks etc...The Solar winds attack is still ongoing for goodness sakes.

Sayin it before the experts...

Out here in my own lil desert Lucy :-).
