LOS ANGELES — President Joe Biden, speaking to donors at a Democratic fundraiser here, said Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy “didn’t want to hear it” when U.S. intelligence gathered information that Russia was preparing to invade.

The remarks came as Biden was talking about his work to rally and solidify support for Ukraine as the war continues into its fourth month.

“Nothing like this has happened since World War II. I know a lot of people thought I was maybe exaggerating. But I knew we had data to sustain he” — meaning Russian President Vladimir Putin — “was going to go in, off the border.”

“There was no doubt,” Biden said. “And Zelenskyy didn’t want to hear it.”

Although Zelenskyy has inspired people with his leadership during the war, his preparation for the invasion — or lack thereof — has remained a controversial issue.

In the weeks before the war began on Feb. 24, Zelenskyy publicly bristled as Biden administration officials repeatedly warned that a Russian invasion was highly likely.

At the time, Zelenskyy was also concerned on the time that the drumbeat of war was unsettling Ukraine’s fragile economy.

This is not the first time Zelensky messed up. He could have prevented the whole war if he would have bowed to Putin anti NATO demands, at least for the time Putin is around, like how Bibi kissed but Obama for 8 years as building makes peace impossible lunacy…

President Biden called for a diplomatic solution to the Russia-Ukraine crisis in a White House speech today, saying that diplomacy and de-escalation are “the best way forward for all parties.” The President, however, warned that an invasion would be met with “overwhelming international condemnation.”
Biden didn’t respond militarily. He responded with “pretty please”.

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine started, Trump praised brutal rasha Putin as a “Genius”. AFTER IT STARTED. But now the Kollel is raising millions $$ to save Ukraine!
So is Tsar Potin a genius or not?

So Biden warned Zelensky about a war, and all of the warmongers on the right wrang their hands how Biden is pushing Putin to war.
With hindsight, we see the genius behind Biden’s move, how if not for his warning, Ukraine would have been overrun.

But nothing Biden does is any good for these Chevra.

Burisma. This senile corrupt Chinese spy is so incompetent that even a professional clown like the meshumad zelensky didn’t take him seriously. Plus us intelligence is highly political with its lies on russian interference and WMDs in Iraq.

Zelensky has committed crimes against humanity and should be brought up on charges in the Hague.
