“I’m trying to figure out what is Putin’s off ramp? Where does he find a way out? Where does he find himself in a position that he does not not only lose face but lose significant power within Russia?”

Biden's words have been reported around the world -- except for his comment about how much damage Trump did to American foreign policy. But we already knew that, didn't we.“I don't think there's any such thing as the ability to easily (use) a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon. I didn’t realize how much serious damage the previous administration did to our foreign policy. ”

People are also figuring out what might happen if nukes were used in Ukraine:...Biden appeared to be making an argument, which Putin will now be sure to hear about, that the idea that the use of a tactical nuclear weapon in Ukraine could be contained and not lead to a wider conflagration is wrong.The entire strategic logic between maintaining nuclear weapons for self-defense is that they are too terrible to be used, and any nation that did would be writing their own death warrant.The President has now sent a clear signal to the Russian leader that crossing the nuclear threshold in any way could cause an escalation that would lead to a disastrous full-on nuclear war.“I don’t think there’s any such thing as the ability to easily (use) a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon,” Biden said at the fundraiser.His comments underscore the most important mission of his presidency – shepherding the world through the most dangerous nuclear brinkmanship in 60 years.
And this is a brutal truth, isn't it:If Putin were to use nukes in Ukraine, it is very likely that radioactive fallout would fall over Russian troops in the illegally annexed regions in eastern Ukraine he falsely claims to protect. 🤔

This brutal video does highlight one of the real often overlooked weaknesses of dictatorships and hidden resiliency of democracies. Dictatorships like to project power: but their people often have shallow loyalties. If 700k Russians have fled the country in the weeks…. https://t.co/s2yuNoZJuK

Clymer's thread on this is hilariousFirst: I’m pardoning all prior federal offenses of simple marijuana possession. There are thousands of people who were previously convicted of simple possession who may be denied employment, housing, or educational opportunities as a result. My pardon will remove this burden.
— President Biden (@POTUS) October 6, 2022
Also hilarious:He prepared the policy analysis thoroughly. It’s not a half-baked idea.

Biden's initiative gives Democrats around the country something very positive to talk about for the next month:BREAKING: After forgiving your student loans and decriminalizing marijuana, Pres. Biden has indicated that he has listened to your podcast, thinks it's "pretty good" and is going to "talk to some people he knows about it".

You could not possibly get a more perfect lesson in parenting. The simultaneous ability to show compassion to your kid with a warm hug and encouragement while also telling someone else to fuck off is what it’s all about.
