An Excellent discussion of Biden's Ukraine actions

https://heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/february-22-2022?utm_source=url

"...President Joe Biden announced that the U.S. has imposed sanctions on two Russian banks... and five individuals... It also sanctioned Russia’s debt, cutting off its access to western financing.

But not all Americans are on board...There used to be a saying that politics stopped at the water’s edge, meaning that lawmakers presented a unified front to other countries, no matter their partisan differences. So far, Republicans appear to have thrown that idea overboard, trying to use the crisis to attack President Joe Biden

Others allied with Trump are supporting Putin by suggesting that the U.S. has no business protecting its ally Ukraine from Russian aggression. This is pushing them into what sure looks like a stand against America."
