Bottom Line
President Biden's overall job approval score is stuck in the low 40s, and Americans are no more positive about his handling of key issues, except for the coronavirus response. But even on that issue, less than half of Americans approve of the job he is doing.
Since the honeymoon phase of his presidency, Biden has seen his support drop among all political groups. His ratings among Republicans cannot go much lower, so further declines in his approval rating depend on whether Democrats' and independents' evaluations of him worsen.
The experiences of Biden's immediate predecessors, Donald Trump and Barack Obama, could shed light on how much lower his approval could go among Democrats and independents. Like Biden, Trump and Obama governed in an era during which their job approval was characterized by exceedingly high ratings among their fellow partisans and exceedingly low ratings among the other party's supporters.
The low point for Donald Trump among his fellow Republicans was 77%, while Barack Obama's lowest among Democrats was 74%, so Biden may be near his theoretical low water mark among Democrats.
Trump generally fared worse among independents than Biden has to date -- with Trump never exceeding 48% among non-affiliated Americans. Trump's low point among independents was 29%, while Obama's support among independents bottomed out at 31%. Again, Biden may be near his low point for independents if his experience ends up being similar to Trump and Obama.
Biden's ability to navigate the current conflict with Russia, take steps to combat inflation, and preside over a now improving COVID-19 situation will be key factors in determining whether he can regain support among Democrats and independents and improve his overall job rating.
As the pandemic is fading into away peacefully, and if he continues to unite our allies and the resistance to Putin inside Russia could keep him from concurring Ukraine, even the off year elections could have a different outcome than in history.
Especially if the Democrats point out how divisive Trump acted against women.

Treasury Asked to Probe Hiring from Accounting Firms
February 22, 2022 at 11:54 am EST By Taegan Goddard 1 Comment
Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) and Rep. Primila Jayapal (D-WA) “asked the Treasury Department’s inspector general to investigate the revolving door between the country’s biggest accounting firms and key policy positions at the Treasury,”
the New York Times reports.
Late last year, the New York Times “found at least 35 examples in which lawyers at the country’s biggest accounting firms left to join the government, largely in the Treasury’s tax policy office, and then returned to their old firm…
“While in the government, many of those lawyers
granted tax breaks to their former firms’ clients,
softened efforts to clamp down on tax shelters
and approved loopholes used by their former firms.”

Ah, yes. This old ruse.
For starters, Ol' Warren has bequeathed virtually his entire fortune to the Bill & Melinda Gates foundation, keeping it safely ensconced AWAY from the reach of our blessed Federal Revenuers.
Second, it has been brought to Ol' Warren's attention on multiple occasions that he is free to send any amount of $$$$$$$$$$$$$ he wishes, large or small, to the Department of the Treasury. They will always gladly accept any amount proffered, and I suspect they would probably even send Ol' Warren a handsome little 'thank you' note. emblazoned with the Treasury seal of course.
Warren's schtick, like him, is OLD.
I won't stoop to calling him a hypocrite AGAIN, as that much is painfully obvious. But I guess it is nice to hear that the old prick is still kicking, and all those BILLION$ are STILL bequeathed to the Gates'.
Oh, and pederast? For as long as we choose to tax income vs. wealth, don't expect this to change. And as long as we have multi-multi millionaires like Peloshee in Congress, don't expect to see us taxing wealth instead of income any time soon.

February 22, 2022
A network of people tied to Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas and his wife went into action following the 2020 presidential election, The New York Times reported Tuesday.
The newspaper reported that "a number of longtime friends and associates of the Thomases" were either involved in legal efforts to overturn the election results or had helped to plan Jan. 6 rallies.
The report focused on wife Ginni Thomas, reporting "it was after Trump’s November loss that she would prove her loyalty beyond doubt, when she and her group urged on efforts to overturn the election."

U.S. calls Russia’s actions an ‘invasion,’ readies new sanctions; Biden to speak
By Robyn Dixon, Rachel Pannett, Ellen Francis and John Wagner
February 22 at 9:58 AM PST
The White House on Tuesday called Russia’s deployment of troops into two pro-Russian separatist regions of Ukraine “the beginning of an invasion” as it prepared to announce new sanctions on Russia and President Biden planned remarks in the early afternoon.
Russia’s upper house of parliament gave President Vladimir Putin permission to use military force outside the country, a move that further raised fears of a broader invasion.
In Berlin, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said he would halt authorization of Nord Stream 2, the controversial natural gas pipeline between Germany and Russia, for the time being. The move was applauded by the United Nations and NATO allies and cited as part of a united response to Russia.
Here’s what to know
In remarks Tuesday, Putin called on Ukraine to forget joining NATO and to accept that Crimea belongs to Russia. Putin said Kyiv’s best path forward is military neutrality.
President Biden signed an executive order Monday blocking trade and investment by Americans in two separatist enclaves of Ukraine. Additional measures are expected Tuesday.
White House aides are reviewing how the United States could respond if Russia curtails exporting global oil products due to hostilities over Ukraine, potentially triggering a spike in gasoline prices.

Is that what the crazy dude is now claiming?
What she actually said.
In an address to the Munich Security Conference on Saturday, Vice President Kamala Harris said that the attendees had convened amid the most “dire circumstances” since “the end of the Cold War,” and warned that the United States and its allies would impose “swift” and “severe” penalties on Russia if its government goes ahead with an attack on Ukrainian territory.
“We will impose far-reaching financial sanctions and export controls, we will target Russia’s financial institutions and key industries, and we will target those who are complicit and those who aid and abet this unprovoked invasion,” said Harris, who reiterated the administration’s position that “our forces will not be deployed to fight inside Ukraine, but they will defend every inch of NATO territory.”
Harris was joined in Germany by a bipartisan congressional delegation, and met afterwards with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. In recent days, the tensions over Ukraine have intensified, with Russian-backed separatists in eastern Ukraine reportedly ordering residents to evacuate the region, and Putin conducting tests of ballistic systems.
Harris’ comments came just a day after President Joe Biden, speaking from the White House, said he is “convinced” that Russian president Vladimir Putin has decided to order troops to invade Ukraine, but implored him to “de-escalate and return to the negotiating table.”
We are in a historically dangerous era.
Great Britain and France and Germany and Italy and the former Soviet Union countries have been United by President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris.
This is actually the word salad she spewed
Abso – we strongly believe – and remember also that the sanctions are a product not only of our perspective as the United States, but a shared perspective among our allies, and the allied relationship is such that we have agreed that the deterrence effect of these sanctions is still a meaningful one, especially because remember also, we still sincerely hope that there is a diplomatic path out of this moment. And within the context, then, of the fact that that window is still opening – open, although it is absolutely narrowing, but within the context of a diplomatic path still being open, the deterrence effect we believe has merit.”

I remember this from high school.
When isolationism and anti-interventionism in the 1930s—especially in the work of the Nye Committee, during the 1939 congressional debates over repealing the Neutrality Acts, and when Charles Lindbergh took to the airwaves—the America First Committee was not founded until September 1940, after the fall of France. Its heyday was in the first half of 1941—as Britain stood alone against Hitler, who was then allied, one might note, with Stalin.
You might think that the Nazi regime’s character and intentions—and the implications of that character and those intentions for the United States and the entire world—would by then have been clear for all to see.
But fear, misunderstanding, and wishful thinking all held sway, mixed in with a dash of genuine sympathy for or admiration of Germany. For various reasons people wanted to believe in America First—to believe that America should go it alone, should mind its own business, should stay out and stay neutral as democracies were attacked and overrun.
The America First Committee was dissolved only after Pearl Harbor.
Trump believes in America First philosophy
The President just said that the sanctions are going against every thing about and including people who have been supporting Putin.

He added, “But as we do this, I’m going to take robust action to make sure the pain of our sanctions is targeted at the Russian economy, not ours.”
Biden said his administration was closely monitoring energy supplies to prepare for any potential disruption and coordinating with oil producers to help mitigate price hikes.
“I want to limit the pain the American people are feeling at the gas pump,” Biden said. “This is critical to me.”

Joe Biden noted that the sanctions his administration will issue against Russia will be much more severe than those enacted after the 2014 annexation of Crimea.
“And if Russia goes further with this invasion, we stand prepared to go further as with sanctions,” Biden said.

President Biden announced new sanctions on Russia on Tuesday after its moves against Ukraine, saying the actions amounted to a “flagrant violation of international law.”
In imposing economic penalties on Russia, the United States joins European allies in responding to Russia’s deployment of troops into two pro-Russian separatist regions of eastern Ukraine. Biden called Russia’s actions the “the beginning of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.”
Biden said a “first tranche” of U.S. sanctions against Russia would target two financial institutions, Russian sovereign debt and Russian elites and their family members.
“To put it simply, Russia just announced that it is carving out a big chunk of Ukraine,” Biden said. He added that he still hopes diplomacy is possible.
Here’s what to know
Russia’s upper house of parliament gave President Vladimir Putin permission to use military force outside the country, a move that further raised fears of a broader invasion.

President Biden announced what he called the "first tranche" in a series of stiff sanctions to punish Russia for invading Ukraine, targeting two Russian banks and the country's sovereign debt.
Why it matters: Biden said Russia's recognition of two separatist "republics" in eastern Ukraine and decision to deploy troops there indicated Vladimir Putin was "carving out a big chunk in Ukraine" and "setting up a rationale to go much further."
Details: Biden said two Russian financial institutions, VEB and Russia’s military bank, would be put under sanctions.
He also said Russia’s sovereign debt will be sanctioned so Russia "can no longer raise money from the West and cannot trade its new debt on our markets, or European markets either." In a sign of trans-Atlantic coordination, the U.S. sanctions overlapped with those announced from London and Brussels.Biden said sanctions on Russian elites and their family members would be rolled out starting tomorrow, and that the U.S. had stronger sanctions in store if Putin continues the invasion.He also said the U.S. was sending more defense assistance to Ukraine and relocating troops that were already positioned in Europe to NATO's eastern flank, in the Baltic states.
What he’s saying: “Who in the Lord's name does Putin think gives him the right to declare new so-called countries in territories that belong to his neighbors?” Biden asked.
The president reiterated that U.S. troops would not be deployed to fight in Ukraine, but said Americans would feel the consequences of war, including through higher gas prices.
Driving the news: Putin gave his clearest indication yet that Russian troops would launch an invasion further into Ukraine, saying the borders of the separatist "republics" he recognized on Monday extend to territory currently controlled by Ukrainian forces.
Putin said at a press conference earlier Tuesday that Russian forces may not immediately advance into the two "republics," but that "it is impossible to predict the scenario that will unfold." Russia also plans to evacuate its embassy in Kyiv.NATO and the EU both said Tuesday that Russian troops had crossed into the separatist republics in eastern Ukraine.Meanwhile European countries have begun to announce new sanctions on Russia, with Germany unexpectedly halting certification of the controversial Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline.

Trump praises Putin's 'genius' plan to invade Ukraine: 'You gotta say that’s pretty savvy'
David Edwards
February 22, 2022
Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday called Vladimir Putin a "genius" after the Russian president made moves to take over parts of Ukraine.
Trump made the remarks during an interview with conservative podcaster Buck Sexton.
"I went in yesterday and there was a television screen, and I said, 'This is genius,'" Trump recalled. "Putin declares a big portion of the Ukraine — of Ukraine -- Putin declares it as independent. Oh, that’s wonderful."
"I said, 'How smart is that?'" the former U.S. president continued. "And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s the strongest peace force… We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy."
Trump added: "But here’s a guy that says, you know, 'I’m gonna declare a big portion of Ukraine independent,' he used the word 'independent' and 'we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.' You gotta say that’s pretty savvy. And you know what the response was from Biden? There was no response. They didn’t have one for that. No, it’s very sad. Very sad."

That's because they're never "his" predictions.
They're always what he steals from the MSM "smart set" thinking it makes HIM look smart.
And it never does.

You won't criticize him for supporting Putin.
Because he's not "supporting Putin" you dumb fuck.
Putin is doing donuts on the white house lawn AT WILL, just like he did with 0linsky.
Acknowledging that fact is only interpreted as "support" by idiotic leftists too fucking stupid and dishonest to admit that Joey Sprinkles is getting fucking ROLLED.
And sending a two dollar whore to Munich as the messenger is adding insult to injury.
This is an epic fail and you guys are treating it like it's fucking Yalta.
Idiot.
Today for the first time he said "the beginning of a Russian "invasion".
A key word. He said that if the Russians invaded any NATO allies under section 5, it is an act of war.
Except for Trump and a couple other looney tunes the Republicans are saying the same thing.
Trump is a traitor now because he supports our opponents.
Joe Biden acknowledged that the newly announced sanctions on Russia may result in higher gas prices for Americans, and he pledged to work to limit the financial impact on average families
And adequate gasoline supply will lower prices; Allow the oil companies to drill.
A key word. He said that if the Russians invaded any NATO allies under section 5, it is an act of war.
Ukraine is not a NATO member, dumbass.
NO ACT OF WAR as much as you're pining for it in an idiotic attempt to pull Slow Joe's polling out of the shitter.
You dumb fucks have gotten so desperate to save this idiot you're actually seeking WAR with RUSSIA.
Trump is a traitor now because he supports our opponents.

Biden Announces First Sanctions to Punish Russia
February 22, 2022 at 2:37 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 79 Comments
President Biden announced what he called the “first tranche” in a series of stiff sanctions to punish Russia for invading Ukraine, targeting two Russian banks and the country’s sovereign debt,
Axios reports.
Biden said sanctions on Russian elites and their families would be rolled out starting tomorrow, and that the U.S. had stronger sanctions in store if Putin continues the invasion.
Putin Denies He’s Trying to Rebuild the Soviet Union
February 22, 2022 at 1:58 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 52 Comments
“President Vladimir Putin denied Tuesday that his recognition of separatists’ claims to a large swath of Ukraine showed his ambition to re-create an empire,”
the Washington Post reports.
In 2005, Putin said the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union “was the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.”
SO HE SAYS HE SAYS HE'S NOT TRYING TO DO WHAT YOU'RE TRYING TO DO?
Vladimir Putin and Numbers
February 22, 2022 at 1:51 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 39 Comments
Julia Ioffe: “Who would’ve thought that Vladimir Putin was so into numerology and anniversaries. On August 8, 2008—08/08/08—he invaded Georgia. Shortly after midnight in Moscow, on February 22, 2022—02/22/22—he sent troops into the Donbas region of Ukraine after recognizing the independence of the two breakaway ‘people’s republics’ of Donetsk and Luhansk.”
“It also marked the day, exactly eight years ago, that Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych fled Ukraine (with Putin’s help) after ordering his troops to open fire on the protestors in Kyiv’s Maidan, killing over 100 people.”
Speaking of anniversaries, perhaps Biden should remind Putin of this one.
Florida Bill Would Require Schools to Out Students
February 22, 2022 at 1:12 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 173 Comments
“The original Florida House sponsor of what’s been dubbed the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill is proposing an additional provision that’s further inflaming LGBTQ advocates,” USA Today reports.
“An amendment by Republican state Rep. Joe Harding to be debated and voted on the House floor Tuesday afternoon, would require school principals to disclose a child’s sexual orientation to parents within six weeks if they find out a student has come out as other than straight.”
“That’s on top of the main bill, which generally seeks to regulate discussions in schools of sexual orientation and gender identity, and would give parents the power to sue violators.”
The media has memoryholed this, but Biden gave Putin permission to launch a "minor incursion" into Ukraine. You'd think that would get some mention today, but no; the Enemy Propaganda Media wants everyone to forget.
Note that in that unfortunate ad lib (Ice Cream Joey should never ad lib, he should just read what Acting President Klain has scripted for him), Brandon says in the case of a "minor incursion," we would have to "debate" "what we'd have to do."
In fact, Brandon seems to have initially categorized this invasion as a "minor incursion," because his senior officials were publicly "debating" whether or not we'd have to impose the sanctions Brandon had promised in case of an invasion-invasion.
After pushback, Brandon is now talking about "severe" sanctions again.
Meanwhile, the media is full of cope, telling itself that Putin must be wishing that Trump was still in office, because Trump would let him take Ukraine, just like... Brandon is doing right now.
And of course Putin annexed part of Georgia under Obama and Biden, too.
But Trump's the one he really wants in office, huh?
Former Bush campaign manager and ABC "News" Political Director -- and, recently, candidate for Texas Lieutenant Governor -- Mathew Dowd has announced that blaming Brandon for what happens under Brandon's watch is officially Treason.

Trump Calls Putin a ‘Genius’ and ‘Very Savvy’
February 22, 2022 at 3:46 pm EST By Taegan Goddard 198 Comments
Former President Donald Trump called Vladimir Putin a “genius” on Buck Sexton’s podcast for moving Russian troops into parts of Ukraine.
Said Trump:
“I said, ‘How smart is that?’ And he’s gonna go in and be a peacekeeper. That’s the strongest peace force… We could use that on our southern border. That’s the strongest peace force I’ve ever seen. There were more army tanks than I’ve ever seen. They’re gonna keep peace all right. No, but think of it. Here’s a guy who’s very savvy.”
He added: “But here’s a guy that says, you know, ‘I’m gonna declare a big portion of Ukraine independent,’ he used the word ‘independent’ and ‘we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.’ You gotta say that’s pretty savvy. And you know what the response was from Biden? There was no response. They didn’t have one for that. No, it’s very sad. Very sad.”

Faced with these realities, what can and should be done to bring an end to this daily assault on Ukraine's sovereignty and democracy and to ensure the stability of the world?
First, we must rid the world of authoritarianism. Our fight is not a fight against Russia and the Russian people but a fight against two evils—Putin and an authoritarian system of government that keeps the Russian people in economic and social bondage.
Second, we must be strong. Strong economically. Strong militarily and most importantly, strong through togetherness.
Through a strong economy Ukraine will be able to stand on our own two feet without international loans and the possible economic blackmail from countries like China and Russia. When all Ukrainians have a quality of life from a strong economy, we will be strong against any force, domestic or foreign. This is our first line of defense.
Through a strong military we can stop physical aggression from external forces. Ukraine must invest in the best military equipment, the best cyber security, the best intelligence and most importantly in the troops and families who are willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for our country. We owe a lot to our allies for helping build a strong military, which is our second line of defense.
And our ultimate line of defense is through strong togetherness, where we are inclusive and not divided—where those in government put the people ahead of their own self-interests. Where government officials talk about inclusion and not division. Where they show our adversaries that no matter our political, social and economic differences we can come together in times of crisis and show that Ukraine's territorial integrity is absolute and not negotiable.
This togetherness is not just about Ukraine, it is about the world, for the Bible tells us that a house divided will fall and history has many examples of that. Let's not let Putin use any global division to make Ukraine the next example of the ultimate fall of democracy to authoritarianism. Only together can Ukraine and the league of democratic nations bring an end not only to war in Ukraine, but an end to Putin's authoritarianism to the world.
Volodymyr Groysman was prime minister of Ukraine from 2016-19.
Which of our presidents will go down in history as the closest to being an actual traitor to our country?
That's easy. Joe Biden.
Maybe it will be the one who called Putin a genius and very savvy.
Biden specifically said that if the Russians fire one bullet into a NATO allies, we would defend them from Russia Russia Russia.....rat is a stupid troll m
Cool.
"Ukraine produces 90% of the semiconductor-grade neon used by the US, as well as 35% of its palladium – a rare metal. ... Neon gas, critical for the lasers used to make chips, is a byproduct of Russian steel manufacturing. It is purified in Ukraine before being exported. Palladium is used in sensors as well as memory chips.Feb 15, 2022"
Nothing says "pinhead" like giving Putin the green light for a minor incursion.
Crimea annexed under 0linsky.
Ukraine "incurred upon albeit minorly" under Joey Sprinkles.
Incursions under Trump = 0.

They were all TRAITORS.
This is a new development fueled by Stage IV TDS. Please make a note of it.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said he called off his meeting with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov. The leaders were set to meet Thursday.
"Last week, I agreed to meet Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov this week, on Feb. 24, to discuss our country's respective concerns about European security. But only if Russia did not invade Ukraine. Now that we see the invasion is beginning and Russia has made clear its wholesale rejection of diplomacy, it does not make sense to go forward with that meeting at this time. I consulted with our allies and partners. All agree. Today I sent Foreign Minister Lavrov a letter informing him of this," Blinken said during a joint news conference with Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba.
Ok, sure.
"Which of our presidents will go down in history as the closest to being an actual traitor to our country?"

This is brilliant -
The flower of NeverTrump intellection is spending a lot of precious Brain Juice explaining why Putin was quiescent under Trump but active and expansionist under the presidents they supported, Obama and then Biden. (Yes, NeverTrump supported Obama, too.)
Putin the Master Strategist saw that Trump was weakening NATO by demanding it spend more on its own defense, and plotted to have Trump continue weakening it for eight years. But when Trump lost a "fortified" election, Putin saw that he couldn't count on Trump to just give him the Ukraine, so he had to take it.
And so Biden gets blamed for what Trump actually lost.
Very strange that Trump plays a starring role in something that's happened entirely on Biden's watch. Did Trump also trick Biden into approving the Russian gas pipeline, Allah?

Another Republican has come to her senses!
Fiona Hill, former Senior Director for Europe and Russia at the United States National Security Council, believes former President Donald Trump's foreign policy has played an intricate role in Russia's bold invasion of Ukraine.
On Monday, February 21, Hill — who worked as a Russian advisor for Trump — appeared on CNN where she weighed on the distinct differences between Trump's approach compared to President Joe Biden's. According to Hill, Trump's policy was more about concern for his own personal agenda as opposed to the United States' national interest.
While Trump's campaign often pushed the message of putting America first and making it "great again," Hill argues otherwise due to what she witnessed during her time working for the former president.
"There's no Team America for Trump," Hill explained. "Not once did I see him do anything to put America first. Not once. Not for a single second."
Hill touched on the timeline leading up to this point as she recalled Trump's admiration for Putin and his disapproval of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). She also noted Trump's longstanding pushback against Ukraine as he relentlessly tried to obtain incriminating information on Biden and his son, Hunter. The controversy surrounding Ukraine was also a major component of the former president's first impeachment trial.

"Inflation continues to weigh on people's minds -- and wallets. Prices keep rising across the nation, particularly when it comes to energy. Gas is a staple for many and it's driving up household spending. Last week, California residents witnessed a record high of $4.72 per gallon. And experts believe $5 a gallon isn't out of the question either."

This isn't the first time that I've thought that Putin has a mental illness....read it...he has been isolated for months.
Mr. Scholz, who was only sworn into office in December, met Mr. Putin for the first time during a visit to the Kremlin earlier this month. The meeting was initially tense, according to aides to Mr. Scholz, but the Russian president appeared open for negotiations.
Nearly half of the meeting, which went on for over three hours, involved Mr. Putin’s explanation of the joint history of Ukraine and Russia, as well as his complaints about NATO encroachment and the West refusing to acknowledge his attempts to forge a closer relationship over the years, one aide said.
Mr. Putin spoke about the NATO intervention in Serbia which led to establishing its former province Kosovo as an independent state backed by the U.S. and some other western nations. Kosovo remains unrecognized by the United Nations, Mr. Putin said—evidence, he says, that NATO acted as an aggressive and not defensive force.
He has warned that allowing Ukraine to join NATO would be a threat to Russia.
Mr. Putin’s demands—that NATO not accept new members in its eastern flank and limit deployment of military forces near Russia’s borders—have been rejected by Western powers and Kyiv.
The stringent Covid-19 precaution measures and the sense that Mr. Putin wasn’t allowing anyone near him left Mr. Scholz and his team concerned that the president had become isolated.
Mr. Scholz spent weeks preparing for the meeting. He spoke at length to his predecessor Angela Merkel, who has known Mr. Putin for over 16 years, and he held a videoconference with Fiona Hill, the Russia expert and former White House adviser.
Mr. Scholz’s staff also organized a briefing by leading international experts at the chancellery in January, including academics and intellectuals.
Mr. Scholz’s impression was that Mr. Putin planned to strangle Ukraine’s economy by perpetuating the current crisis and menacing its borders with his troops, while at the same time seeking a grand bargain with the West that would ultimately need the approval of Mr. Biden.
“Putin’s stance is clear: This is the 19th century and I am the czar and I will overcome small countries and I will only make deals with great powers,” the aide said.
U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson was also received a lecture from Mr. Putin when he spoke with him in a lengthy phone call earlier this month, according to one British official. The Russian gave Mr. Johnson a belligerent history lesson, the officials said. Mr. Johnson pushed back offering his own interpretation of events.
Some analysts said Mr. Putin gets irritated when he feels he is being misunderstood, especially when it comes to explaining the ties between Russia and Ukraine and the threat he believes the government there harbors toward Russian-speakers in Donbas, a charge Kyiv denies.
“Ukraine is not just a neighbor,” Mr. Putin told his countrymen in a televised address on Monday. “It is an inherent part of our own history, culture and spiritual space,” he said.
Some suggest Mr. Putin was still vacillating up until his decision to declare the independence of the statelets in eastern Ukraine.
“It was evident that his final position hadn’t been formulated, that he was considering different options,” said Abbas Gallyamov, a Moscow-based political consultant and former speechwriter for Mr. Putin. “Until the very last moment, different scenarios were being calculated.”
