One simply awesome idea! I suggest hitting all the whitehouse & syncopant pages on Twitter. Reply to every post, with a picture of Obama and/or Biden.

Supporting Ukraine is the only sane path to ending the war in Europe. Putin will not stop the war and he has repeatedly violated every agreement they have signed. Russia cannot be trusted. They have clearly demonstrated this for the last 100 years. #SlavaUkraini

This isn't hypothetical. The coming days are bringing higher prices and disrupted supply chains, this time not because of a pandemic or a war, but self-inflicted by our country's government under this president.

Massive Russian drone strike on Zaporizhzhia. One person killed, three injured, there are still people under the debris. Awful. Russia continues terrorizing Ukrainian civilians.
