"SNIP......

Washington Post: “Early in the Russia-Ukraine standoff, the Biden administration took a calculated risk: Rather than merely warn about the possibility of a Russian invasion, it foreshadowed and even repeatedly predicted one — and in a rather unprecedented way. It talked openly about the intelligence behind that, declassifying some of it, in hopes that it would rally the West and prevent Russian President Vladimir Putin from building a pretext for the invasion.”

“That risky strategy has now paid dividends following Russia’s actual invasion, rendering both its denials about the impending invasion and its claims about the root cause significantly undercut.”

1. Now THAT is what I call a Pre-emptive strike..

Getting in front of the propaganda coming from Russia by telling the truth.

2. Yes. Putin is a bat, not a bear. He fears sunlight & fears comparisons of prosperous free Ukraine.nt

3. Biden knows his man.

And we spend gargantuan $'s on intel. Such funding buys significant abilities. Expensive, but when the rubber meets the road it's well worth the cost.

4. Interesting

on how correct they can be when Trump isn’t around. Or when Bush wanted his war on.

Must be all the new hires.

5. They must have made a clean sweep of the trash from the last admin cluttering the community? nt

6. You can have all the intelligence you want, you still need a President who reads and heeds it

Biden is performing at extremely high levels. TDFG wouldn't read or listen to the briefings.

8. Biden trusts our intel community, unlike TFG.

His frequent and effective public use of information demonstrates that trust. He’s restoring that community’s worth. His openness creates layers of positivity.

9. Thank You President Biden

Thank you to our intelligence community and the entire administration. The level of competence, maturity and patriotism everyone has demonstrated is highly commendable.

You have also made our global alliances much stronger.
