Tahoma Stands With Ukraine

      So, while the world watches.  Russyan military units are in the process of surrounding the capitol city of Ukraine, Kyiv, prior to seizure of the government there.  Ukraine army units are preparing for a stout defense of their government and President Volodymyr Zelensky and his cabinet officials.

      As the Mayor of Tahoma has predicted, Russyan President for life, Vladimir Putin, has ordered all his military forces to invade an independent country on its southern border.  His maniacal pronouncements indicate that the man has lost his senses.  His pathetic speeches uncover his mental illness that has only grown more severe with his time as head of state in the largest country in the world.  Now he will strike not at Ukraine, but his real nemesis-the United States.  He professes that the US does not accord him the respect he wants and deserves.  The result: the first army cross border invasion on European soil in almost 80 years(see Poland v. Germany,1939 aka blitzkrieg).

       As a small American town, Tahoma is connected like most others with the world.  Local residents cannot overlook world events which will affect things here as well as where they occur.  Hence, we announce today: We Stand With Ukraine and its citizens who are now the victims of Russya's violation of international law for which its leaders will be held accountable and face criminal trial at the Hague when peace is restored.

       Locals are advised to follow the events of this war as they unfold in eastern Europe.  NATO and its members are girding for what could be a defense of the Western European landscape before this is settled.  The US has sent 10,000 troops to Poland to bolster the border with Putin's Russya.  Sanctions will fall on a myriad of Russyan institutions, mostly financial, which will cripple its already weakened economy.  The Olympics in Beijing are over, but Xi Jin Ping will have a headache that will linger as  Mad Vlad and his plan takes over where Covid left off.  

     President Joe Biden will address the nation on March 1st with his State of the Union address.  He certainly has quite a bit of material to cover: Covid, Ukraine, the Inflation in our own economy, unemployment, NATO, military preparedness, and the nation's response to naked aggression by Russya.

Don't miss it!
