You are correct, there are bipartisan negotiations to sanction Russian oil. How about waiting for a veto before claiming Biden is opposing it. Truly if today Biden announced he was sanctioning Russian oil you would criticize him for driving petrol prices up.

And blame somebody else for his mistake.
But Biden actually knows what he's doing. You certainly don't and neither did the Orange Fruitcake.
I'm surprised that you didn't blame Biden for not sending in troops or not imposing a no-fly zone.

I will leave it to you to do the 3rd grade math. If you can. But you can't.
You said you'd accept BLM data.
You lose. But sure, call it all "fake news". Like usual.

Posts: 1068Biden's catastrophe War
Zelensky statements today pretty much told the story of Ukraine disaster. Russia-Ukraine: Zelenskyy says it's a 'pity' US support came 'after' Russian war.
Biden threatening sanctions when Russia put thousands of soldiers on the Ukraine border did absolutely nothing to deter Putin. USA putting sanctions after invasion and after Europe imposed sanctions showed Putin how weak Biden was. Putin with help from Biden will take Ukraine and kill thousands of innocent people. Even some Americans. Biden still refuses to sanction oil from Russia and USA continues to pour $80 million dollars a day into Putin's war. USA is funding the invasion of Ukraine. Democrats and republicans together are lobbying Biden to sanction Russian oil and hurt Russia but he refuses. Russia is getting rich off of fools like Biden. Every person that voted for Biden can take credit for innocent people dying. The socialists here must be so proud.

Posts: 5522Putin's Bad Timing
But, then, I suppose Putin didn't have any option for invading Ukraine but to blunder into his spectacularly stupid mistake at the worst possible time for him; while Dem President Biden was in office.
Putin really was counting on the weakening of Ukraine's military position against his invasion to happen as the result of Trump / The Republican Party surgically removing "necessary" military support for Ukraine in their 2016 election platform, Trump secretly refusing to impose invasion-related sanctions against Russia until the Dems in Congress busted him for it and forced him to impose them anyway, Trump secretly denying Ukraine the military funding Congress earmarked for that pro democracy effort until, again, he was busted by the Dems in Congress for it, Trump's deservedly Impeachable transgression of blackmailing Ukraine's president into "finding" something he knew didn't exist, dirt on his political opponent with that shameful "perfect phone call" idiocy, as a means to further deny Ukraine that military support, dismantle any and all democratic nation alliances opposed to the invasion, etc, etc, etc in order to improve his (Putin's) military and economic leverage against that of Ukraine's so it would be a swift and clean takeover for him to destroy that budding democracy and enslave it as another win for authoritarian dictatorships.
But that was not to be. The Republican Party's front man in that Party-wide effort, Donald Trump, was just too clumsy and incompetent a salesman and negotiator to get her done before Biden roundly defeated him in a landslide election victory and immediately swing into action to effectively reunite those democratic alliances stronger and better than ever.
As Putin saw that happening with every passing hour of Biden's historically positive first year and months of his presidency, Putin simply could not delay his, Trump's and the Republican Party's dream of destroying democracy wherever it exists any longer.
Bad timing.
Even if or when Putin's vastly larger military might prevails on official battlefield terms, there will never ever be a Russian "win" out of this.

U.S. imposes new sanctions on pro-Putin Russian oligarchs and their families
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/03/ukra...ndroidappshare
The Biden administration announced a new round of sanctions targeting Russian oligarchs and their family members who are supporting President Vladimir Putin as he wages war in Ukraine.
Asked at the White House about the expanded sanctions, press secretary Jen Psaki said that the U.S. was confident that these measures were an effective approach.
President Joe Biden said later Thursday afternoon that the sanctions already imposed on Putin and those around him have had a profound impact.

That would be the Republican Party in the USA House of Representatives voting unanimously to Defund The Police. Yes, including its Leadership:
"'Republicans are defunding the police': Fox News anchor stumps congressman.
Fox News.
The Guardian" https://amp.theguardian.com/media/20...sman-jim-banks.
The Fox News anchor Chris Wallace made headlines of his own on Sunday, by pointing out to a senior Republican that he and the rest of his party recently voted against $350bn in funding for law enforcement.
The same way almost no MSM have chased down and pestered members of the Republican Party to explain how and why their actual leadership decided attacking and killing cops, vandalism, theft, desecration and deadly violent Anti America insurrection are really mere "Legitimate Political Discourse" against which no funding of police should happen anyway given that the Republican Party is now considering those crimes to be our Constitutionally protected right to free expression.

Whatever your studies show (and we all know what dark, tight holes you get your 'studies" from), I was talking about my current experiences, not something that might or might not happen in the future.
And thanks but no thanks, I have no interest in what deranged crackpots like you are seeing or feeling. I don't do hallucinogens.
GDP growth, unemployment rates, average wages have all been moving in the right direction, with unemployment at about 4%, a multi-year low even with places like New York City lagging behind; GDP growth is expected to be above 5.5% for 2021, the best since 1984; wage growth for the bottom of the economic pyramid has been notable for the first time in a generation. In fact, wage growth for the bottom of the economic pyramid has actually been faster than the one thing that dampens the picture: inflation.
Inflation is right-wingers' best and dearest friend, a great talking (scratch that, SCREAMING) point as if the once-in-100-years pandemic has never happened and Biden is somehow responsible for everything that's happened in America since February 2020. Yeah, well, good luck with that.
By the way, you've never said how much you like or dislike Mr. Putin. I mean for someone whose heart goes out to poor folks suffering from high energy costs, this seems to be one topic you're carefully trying to avoid.
