Well supposedly Hunter made billions from it. If my family made billions from a country I'd certainly be able to find it on a map!

Not our war, but our place for warnings and sanctions to let Russia know they no longer have the free hand they've enjoyed for the last 4 years.

It seems like it was just a continuation of the 2 years before that.

The United States, Russia, and The United Kingdom guaranteed Ukraine's borders as recognized in 1991. In return, Ukraine gave its nuclear weapons.

Western Europe sold out Ukraine for Russia's cheap energy. The United State walked away because the American people in general lack the political will to be a real super power ala "Pax Romana", and President Obama in particular was gutless coward.

Russia in not the Soviet Union. It is a weak, anorexic, shadow of the Soviet Union. Putting a Mech/Armor Brigade on the ground and arming the Ukrainian's to the teeth with anti-armor, anti-air, and long range artillery, would have the Russian's leaving faster than they left Afghanistan facing the Taliban flintlocks, manpads, and shoulder fired anti-armor missiles from the US.

The US is not to be trusted when it comes to military alliances.

Maybe he will try to squeeze Ukraine for a favor before doing anything.... I am sure if he asked Ukraine to announce an investigation into Trump and or Trump's kids before doing anything, no one would have any problem with that and see it as being completely in line with what a President is supposed to do.

Beyond that, he has already openly pledged support, so very likely the USG is already taking action, but it may not be in the news for a while.

A1C Mike Allen - What kind of actions? Also, investigations do not convict people, genius. Not the sharpest bulb on the tree, are you.
