It's getting really real over in Ukraine.
Joe Biden's Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, issued a statement Friday urging any Americans in Ukraine to leave the country "immediately" as Russia's military is in place and poised to invade the country "any day now" ... specifically saying that it could happen within days, before the Olympics in Beijing have concluded:
"As we have said before, we are in the window when an invasion could begin at any time should Vladimir Putin decide to order it," he said.
Pushing back against the PBS report, Sullivan, speaking from the White House, said an invasion could happen "any day now," possibly even "during the Olympics" taking place in Beijing.
Experts had previously thought that Russia would at least wait until after the Olympics to invade, since Putin and Xi are commie buddies and all.
"We want to be crystal clear on this point, any American in Ukraine should leave as soon as possible and in any event in the next 24 to 48 hours," Sullivan said. "We obviously cannot predict the future. We don't know exactly what is going to happen. But the risk is now high enough and the threat is now immediate enough that this is what prudence demands."
"Russia could choose, in very short order, to commence a major military action against Ukraine," he added.
Oh and also, any Americans who do not leave before Russia invades are, as they say, up the creek without a paddle:
Sullivan also noted that those who remain in the country following warnings will not be rescued by American military forces should Russia invade.
"If you stay, you are assuming risk with no guarantee that there will be any other opportunity to leave and no prospect of a U.S. military evacuation in the event of a Russian invasion."
Biden promised to usher in better days, and he has certainly done that: Criminals, perverts, and America's worst enemies have it better now than they have in a looooong time.
