To understand Putin in this moment, it's important to remember that he called the breakup of the Soviet Union, freeing millions, the "greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century." Invading Ukraine, if he does it, is all about reversing that and sealing his legacy in history. — PolitiTweet.org

“I’m convinced he’s made his decision”: Biden cites US intelligence in assessing that Putin has opted for war with Ukraine. Latest estimates show 190,000 troops near border. @shearm https://t.co/LD88QIBjvd — PolitiTweet.org

RIP Gail Halvorsen, the "Candy Bomber" who dropped sweets for hungry German kids during the Berlin Airlift. My aunt was one of those kids and always revered Halvorsen as the epitome of America at its best. @rigold69 https://t.co/JShUx6EFZR — PolitiTweet.org

In the Senate, they may not agree on how to vote but they increasingly agree on how long it should take. A new effort seeks to make a 15-minute vote take 15 minutes instead of 45 or 60, notes ⁦@hillhulse⁩ who has waited through many a long roll call. https://t.co/rKsIajFB8S — PolitiTweet.org

Japan's approach to the pandemic helped limit its death toll to fewer than 20,800 over the past two years, notes ⁦@johnmbarry⁩. If the US had matched that performance proportionately only 55,000 Americans would have died instead of 930,000 so far. https://t.co/hVmNL16213 — PolitiTweet.org

Sea levels along the coastal United States will rise by about a foot or more on average by 2050, government scientists report, with the result that rising water now considered “nuisance flooding” will become far more damaging. @henryfountain https://t.co/Pmi904JgyK — PolitiTweet.org

As the US tries to decipher Putin, one strategy is to keep him talking, like a hostage negotiator would. Which makes sense "unless what the gunman really wants is to shoot the hostages.” ⁦@SangerNYT⁩ ⁦@julianbarnes⁩ ⁦@EricSchmittNYT⁩ https://t.co/qOAWLpBeiC — PolitiTweet.org
