'We are left alone in defense of our state... '
President Joe Biden vowed earlier this week that whatever course Russia pursued with its invasion of Ukraine, he would be “ready to respond with unity, clarity and conviction.”

He has since proceeded to fail miserably on all three fronts.
Instead of clarity, the Biden administration has served up a full dose of bumbling, backtracking and contradicting itself, as Russian forces late Thursday had reportedly gained control of nuclear hotspot Chernobyl and were in the process of sacking Ukraine’s capitol city.

CNN reporting now the explosion over Kyiv tonight was a Ukrainian SU-27 shot down by Russian anti-air battery in the city's suburbs. Ukraine has lost the skies over its capital. Grim.

The Biden’s administration’s notion of clarity in the face of the unfolding crisis was a circus act of contortions, as it tried to explain that the sanctions that were previously withheld weren’t really meant as a deterrent even though Biden had previously insisted they were his main means of deterrence.
Today Biden said “no one expected” sanctions on Russia “to prevent anything from happening.”

“This is going to take time, it’s not going to occur, he’s going to say, ‘Oh, my God, these sanctions are coming, I’m going to stand down,” Biden said, according to the Daily Wire.
“He’s going to test the resolve of the West to see if we stay together. And we will, we will and it will impose significant costs on him.”
Biden’s claims of responding with unity seemed to fairing as poorly as his messaging on clarity.
“We are left alone in defense of our state,” Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky said, as Russian forces closed in on Kyiv.
“Who is ready to fight with us? I don’t see it. Who is ready to guarantee Ukraine’s accession to NATO?”
Zelensky, no doubt pondering the babble spewing from the White House, said Thursday that Ukraine needs “to talk about a ceasefire with Russia.”
“We are not afraid to talk to Russia. We are not afraid to talk about security guarantees for our state.

We are not afraid to talk about neutral status.
But what security guarantees will we have? But which countries will give them?”

“President Biden’s weakness on the world stage has emboldened our adversaries, look no further than Ukraine and Afghanistan,” said House GOP Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik.
“The world is less safe because of his failed leadership.”
