Babbling Biden handler slaps Russia with new sanctions as Putin annexes parts of Ukraine

The Biden administration is putting new sanctions Friday soon after Russian President Vladimir Putin announced in a rambling maniacal way of the annexation of four Ukraine provinces.

According to the person behind the White House curtain, the sanctions impose "swift and severe costs" on Moscow for its  “fraudulent and unlawful annexation” of Ukrainian territory.

“Make no mistake: these actions have no legitimacy,” President Biden mush-mouthed of Russia’s land grab. “The United States will always honor Ukraine’s internationally recognized borders.”

“In response to Russia’s phony claims of annexation, the United States, together with our Allies and partners, are announcing new sanctions today,” Biden's Teleprompter. “These sanctions will impose costs on individuals and entities — inside and outside of Russia — that provide political or economic support to illegal attempts to change the status of Ukrainian territory.”

When questioned by the so-called press about how he felt regarding Putin's move, Biden said, "I'll take him out behind the barn and challenge him to a push-up contest anytime. He doesn't scare me."

The sanctions target Russian government and military officials, as well as military officials in neighboring Belarus who are behind the war effort.

The sanctions will also affect 14 international firms identified as being part of the Russian military’s supply chain.

The measures took aim at the Russian economy, sanctioning Elvira Sakhipzadovna Nabiullina, the head of Russia’s central bank and the eponymous central figure in a song by the Oak Ridge Boys— as well as her deputy, longtime Putin advisor Olga Nikolaevna Skorobogatova.

The US Treasury and State Departments also announced sanctions on relatives of members of Russia’s security council, including the wife and adult children of Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu — who was directly affected by earlier rounds of sanctions.
