Russian jet dumps fuel on drone twice and then rams the prop, downing it.

All in international air space.

This is an act of war.

What has our commander in chief done as a response?

Hmm I can say for fact this is nothing and allot of people know this. Much worse has happened over the years even before I was born 60+ years ago and praise GOD both sides did nothing.

Even though President Harris.. sorry president Biden has made it very clear.. a...that...a.... forgot what was talking about :) sorry lol

So a war that were told were not part of and Russia knows this they can push as much as they want. Sorry but Biden has made it very clear he only bluffs and folds all the time. See I look at before Biden took off everything he has said and done to this say and its clear he is not in charge.

That man in Ukraine is no better Putin from everything I have heard (not from TV). Never got the impression Biden was FOR the USA. But maybe things are being done in the back ground that they can't talk about......yeah that's it. haha

Conservatives - Biden is a doddering, senile old man whose handlers are trying to get us into WWIII!!!!

Also Conservatives - Why hasn't that doddering, senile old man's handlers gotten us into WWIII???

I'd say sending the Ukrainians $100 billion worth of warfighting materials which they have used to kill between 125,000 and 400,000 Russians, destroying much of their armor, transport and aircraft is pretty robust response by any measure.

Mi-24 Hind's flew the skis with virtual impunity in Afghanistan until we delivered Stingers to the Mujahideen. The aid package to Ukraine has been that on steroids. Russia has lost some 9,000 pieces of heavy equipment since last January.

He'll probably continue supplying Ukraine with weapons, which they are currently using to gut the Russian military.
Assisting Ukraine and using embargoes is damaging Russia quite a bit. Low on weapons, they are begging China for help.

Holding the current course will eventually render them powerless.

Pushing rival nations, which are usually antagonistic to one another, to cooperate on sharing weapons, is some eighth-dimensional chess; this is difficult to cast as “good news”.

oh hey, a sane response.

We have bumped each other on the high sea. We did nothing then... we will do nothing now.
These out-of-touch people will not stop and we will have thousands of bodies coming home in body bags.
Nothing solves economic woes like a good war.
We will be lucky if we do not have nukes raining down on our cities.

I hope so. That is what should happen when sane nations bounce around each other.
However we are not dealing with sane rulers here. Putin is nuts, and Biden is out of touch with reality.
It is entirely in Putin's personality to start sending nukes into the fray.

I mean the question is, what more can be done? The US is condemning Russia's actions diplomatically, but there aren't really any other actions short of a shooting war considering the scale of the sanctions already imposed on Russia by the US.

Not even one tweet. Sad. Low energy.
Are you saying a nation can knock down a multi million dollar military aircraft over international waters and our reply is nothing?

We know Secretary Austin had some immediate communications with his Russian counterparts. And I expect the State Department has also been active. Austin has also said we're going to continue flying our drones in that area.

Behind the scenes, who knows what activity there has been?

*I* have no need for Biden to do something in particular in public. So I'm content.

There are certainly some things I wouldn't want him to do.

China, whose economy is suffering right now, has a lot to lose if they side against all of NATO, the U.S. and Canada in favor of a power-grabbing empire-building Russia. Russia
Biden asked for the nuclear football to access the codes, but was informed that was one thing they hadn't gotten back from Mar A Largo.
Thank goodness 45 can only remember as far as person, man, woman, camera, tv. Hopefully he would keep mis-entering the numbers long enough that his mililtary aides could subdue him and abort the process.
