Russia

Presidential historian, sometimes Biden speechwriter, and frequent MSNBC Jon Meacham joined The 11th Hour on Friday to recap what turned out to be a very eventful week. For Meacham, the week both the defense of Ukraine and the nomination of Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court are critically important for democracy, just like winning World War II.

If there's one person who shouldn't pontificate about dealing with Putin and Russia, it's Hillary "Reset Button" Clinton. On Friday's Morning Joe, MSNBC's husband-and-wife duo buttered her up about how Trump's "chaos of the last five years" was better for Putin than Obama or Biden policies. As Russia invades, Hillary touted the Democrats bringing "credibility" back.

Two Ukrainian former heavyweight champion boxers are answering President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s call to Ukrainian citizens to take up arms and fight back against Russia. The Klitschko brothers -- Vitali (nicknamed “Dr. Ironfist”) and Wladimir, who are both Hall of Fame boxers -- have volunteered their services to stand against Russian forces that have invaded their homeland.

On Thursday's Morning Joe, discussing Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the normally mild-mannered Richard Haass of the Council on Foreign Relations declared: "I hate to be so blunt, but the thing Putin is most vulnerable to is DEAD RUSSIAN SOLDIERS. So we have to ensure Ukraine has means to resist."

Wednesday’s White House press briefing wasn’t smooth sailing for Press Secretary Jen Psaki and deputy national security adviser Daleep Singh with tough questions ahead of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, so it was only natural they came back Thursday and faced  hardballs on Biden’s messaging flip-flop on use of sanctions and the refusal to apply them at all to Russian energy industry (perhaps its…

In the midst of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, CNN made headlines; not just for being live when cruise missiles began striking Kyiv, but also for playing an obnoxious Applebee’s ad side-by-side with footage of air-raid sirens blaring out through Kyiv.

Almost 24 hours after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the three evening newscasts hammered the Biden administration for doubling down on more sanctions which have already failed to prevent Russian aggression. 

On Wednesday, hours before the start of the Russian invasion of Ukrainian, the Rada (parliament) advanced legislation that would allow more Ukrainian civilians to own firearms as they stared down the bear that was eager to wage war on and conquer them. It’s another obvious example of why civilian firearm ownership is important and vital for a free people, yet it wasn’t worth any airtime on the…

Addressing the world some 15 hours after Russian began a full invasion of Ukraine, President Biden faced a White House press corps on Thursday afternoon that, after he ducked their questions on Tuesday, chose to do its job and call out the likelihood the latest round of economic sanctions would do all but nothing to deter Putin, the likely economic pain Americans will feel, and what has he…

The network newscasts on Thursday morning parroted Biden talking points when it comes to the President’s handling of the escalating Ukranian crisis. None of them questioned Joe Biden’s control of a situation that seems to be spiraling out of control. Instead, NBC assured Americans that the Democrat is “sensitive” to ramifications like sky high gas prices. 

Along with his co-hosts for Showtime's The Circus, MSNBC’s John Heilemann traveled over to CBS's The Late Show with Stephen Colbert on Wednesday night to falsely claim in a twisted train of thought that Republicans and the 2016 election are to blame for Russia’s unprovoked invasion of Ukraine and that Russian President Vladimir Putin is using the moment to weaken President…

As the Russian invasion of Ukraine was still underway, the cackling coven of ABC’s The View flaunted just how low-class they are by openly worrying about how the assault could put a dampener on their European vacation plans. They also suggested all conservatives and Republicans were “on Putin’s side” of the conflict.

With Russia having commenced a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Thursday morning, pure liberal partisans clamored for a response with the war going down on President Biden’s watch. Not surprisingly, many decided to blame Donald Trump, but others took the farcical route by suggesting the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol was to blame. Among the latter group was CNN White House correspondent…

On Wednesday, Hot Air Senior Editor Ed Morrissey reported on how The New York Times – on the eve of Russia invading Ukraine – was most concerned with the impact on the left’s climate change crusade. He cited a Times article fretting: “The renewed emphasis on energy independence and national security may encourage policymakers to backslide on efforts to decrease the use of fossil fuels…
