You can tell this is a lie because, until Russia actually invaded, Zelensky himself did not take the threats too seriously. So why would he say Biden should have sanctioned Russia for an imminent attack that he himself was not confident would even happen?
This.
The only one responsible for Russia invading Ukraine is Putin.
There is an a country that attacked another country
and the country they attacked is the victim.
The United States is neither of those.
All we can do now is try to sanction Russia and help the Ukrainians as much as we can
with Aid.

In addition to joining other nations in supplying Ukrainians with food and weapons, we can also push for renewable energy.
Read where billionaire Andrew Forrest's investment arm will develop a A$3 billion (U.S. $2.2 billion ) wind, solar and battery facility in Australia.
We need to be doing the same.
Why supply the Russians and Saudis with a steady stream of money? They're not our friends.
Putting Trump aside for a minute, are bible thumpers really "conservative"?
I know we somehow bastardized conservatism to include the religious right in the last 50 years, but aren't real conservatives for small government?
Does small government really regulate morality?
I don't dislike Pence, and I thought he did a fine job as a Vice President, but I don't consider him or people like him to be real conservatives, and I hope others are moving in that direction too.
I look at conservative in two senses re government....as few policies as possible and as little spent as possible, and probably one sense socially....behavior that is socially appropriate for the situation/environment, faithfulness to a spouse if you are married, etc. FWIW, I'm agnostic and my 'roots' are Catholic on one side of the family and Episcopalians, Baptists (New York and New England, not Southern), and Congregationalists on the other side of the family.
Some Trump supporters (not you) make it a point to call people who previously were part of what might have been considered 'the base' in the Republican Party RINOs, implying that because Trump supporters are now 'the base' that others are RINOs. I don't accept that. I'm an Independent, but I've also been both a Republican and a Democrat (time as a Dem = re Pro-Choice). I was brought up that dignified behavior is a base Republican value and, IMO, that doesn't change just because there may now be a majority of people who don't seem to care about that, and enthusiastically embrace and personally identify in some ways with a man (Trump) who certainly isn't dignified. To me, Trump and that subset of Trump supporters are the RINOs.
I share your hope that more people come to view real conservatism as something that doesn't have anything to do with what Pence embodies (I'm assuming you mean in a religious sense, and how that manifests itself in his life/behavior).
"Senate sources said on Saturday that Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky pinned blame for Russia’s invasion into Ukraine on Democrat President Joe Biden’s refusal to enact sanctions against Russia before Russia launched the invasion.
Zelensky told Senators that if the U.S. “had started sanctions months ago, there would not have been war.”"
Agreed. Had we kept the pipeline and added a Russian oil embargo one month ago, there would also be no war.
Russia now, apparently, has 95% of its firepower in Ukraine.
They’re very vulnerable at this point. Too bad we can’t be two steps ahead of them and take them out.
We couldn't handle Afghanistan and bailed out but you are pushing WW 3 with a superior force with nukes on their turf behind your keyboard. When are you enlisting?

We did bail on Afghanistan in a cowardly way under Biden. On that point, I agree.
Now he takes PTO every weekend to keep his head under the blanket while Putin pushes the world around.
Hate to rain on your parade, but PUTIN is responsible for the invasion, not Brandon. Brandon is responsible for inaction -- not the same thing, is it?
What can you expect when a president is surrounded by Marxist communists who tell him what to do .Biden is in the pocket of Russia because of the power of this administration which is Marxist and wants to bring down America. Let's start with that. Where is the power around Biden? They are socialist Communist for Pete's sakes. They are making all the decisions. Keep buying Russian oil at this time. Only Marxist communists will keep funding the war machine of a communist invading a country that wants to be free. It's so plain to see the actions of still buying Russian oil.
