New Washington Post Editorial: Facing a long war, Ukraine needs Western fighter jets. We are calling today on the Biden administration to start the process of sending F-16s and to give permission to our allies to transfer their jets. https://t.co/zZDoDTiu3i — PolitiTweet.org

The Energy Department, which oversees our national labs, has concluded that the Covid pandemic most likely arose from a lab leak, according to a classified intelligence report. The FBI previously concluded the same thing. https://t.co/4MoyK07D9R — PolitiTweet.org

Carter’s first state visit was to Poland. The interpreter mangled his words. Carter said he was glad to be there and wished to have close relations with its people. It came out as saying that he had left America for good and wanted to have sex with locals. https://t.co/8FDyPhSBNl — PolitiTweet.org

The target date to entirely replace the master file is now 2030, but the GAO warns it’s unlikely the IRS will meet that deadline. (The IRS declined to provide a new date to The Post.) This is unacceptable. — PolitiTweet.org

Some of the software the IRS uses are up to 15 versions behind the current one. A key problem is the “Individual Master File” that has been in use since 1970, when Nixon was president. It was built with antiquated programming languages COBOL and Assembly. — PolitiTweet.org

The IRS answered only 13% of calls last year. It has a paperwork backlog that includes millions of unprocessed returns. It is beset by ongoing staffing shortages, notably the fewest auditors since World War II. https://t.co/ZJ7SxntIg8 — PolitiTweet.org

That is why Biden was right to reaffirm the civilized world’s commitment to fight an unjust war. In Kyiv as in Warsaw, he pledged US support for Ukraine’s right to sovereignty, to live free from aggression and to strive for democracy. That is the right message, at the right time. — PolitiTweet.org

But even without troops in-country, Washington, London, Berlin, Paris and the other NATO partners are fully invested in what has become a dire struggle against Mr. Putin’s autocratic regime and predatory worldview, and for the most basic values that define the West. — PolitiTweet.org

Make no mistake: The United States and its closest allies are effectively at war with Russia in Ukraine. It is not a war the West sought and, thank goodness, it remains an indirect conflict. President Biden and other key Western leaders are right to want to keep it that way. — PolitiTweet.org

Moreover, doing so would also be an act of self-defeating folly on the part of Chinese President Xi Jinping, likely prompting an economic rift with the United States and its NATO partners, which together accounted for more than one-quarter of China’s exports in 2021. — PolitiTweet.org

China said today that it is worried the war in Ukraine could spiral “out of control.” In fact, it is difficult to imagine developments that would accelerate that spiral more dramatically than a decision by China to send arms to Russian forces. https://t.co/aDeaoRMbKK — PolitiTweet.org

In combination with his threats to use tactical nuclear weapons on the battlefield in Ukraine, Putin's suspension of the New START accord means that arms control might be another casualty of his contempt for civilized conduct among nations. New editorial: https://t.co/aDeaoRMbKK — PolitiTweet.org

Notwithstanding Mr. Putin’s propaganda, the world knows which side is prosecuting a war that has left hundreds of thousands of casualties in the past year, and could end it, immediately, if the tyrant in the Kremlin elected to do so. Our latest editorial: https://t.co/aDeaoRMbKK — PolitiTweet.org

Amid today's dueling speeches by Biden and Putin, images from the Ukrainian port city of Kherson show the bloody aftermath of an overnight Russian rocket attack at a crowded bus station that left at least six dead and scores more hurt: bodies torn, lives ruined. — PolitiTweet.org

Jake Sullivan says Biden really wanted to go “to send a clear, unmistakable message of enduring American support.” He felt that risk had been brought to a manageable level. The trip was not a celebration but an affirmation that the US will support Ukraine as long as it takes. — PolitiTweet.org

Following months of meticulous planning, Biden huddled in the Oval Office on Friday with his closest advisers for a go-or-no-go meeting on the trip to Kyiv. Unlike presidential trips to Iraq and Afghanistan, the U.S. has no military presence in Ukraine, making the trip riskier. — PolitiTweet.org
