Russian military buildup puts Washington on edge
Ellen Mitchell 11/25/2021


Washington is on edge as Russia's military buildup threatens a confrontation, with fears escalating following reports that U.S. intelligence shows Russian forces preparing to push into Ukraine.

Even as the nation’s capital goes quiet for the Thanksgiving holiday, the Biden administration must contend with reports that nearly 100,000 Russian troops are stationed at various locations on the country's western border, with no sign of those numbers waning.

Tensions have grown so high that the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine on Wednesday warned of “unusual Russian military activity” near Ukraine's eastern border and in the annexed peninsula of Crimea, telling U.S. citizens not to travel there.

It all comes down to how much of a Narcissist is Putin.

Does he see himself as destined to reconstruct a new Soviet Union of 'Republics'? 

I think he's chomping at the bit...especially with a senile imbecile (can you be both?) as POTUS.
