"I know you and you know me. If I establish this occurred, be prepared.'"

Washington(CNN)President Joe Biden said Vladimir Putin "will pay a price" for his efforts to undermine the 2020 US election following a landmark American intelligence assessment which found that the Russian government meddled in the 2020 election with the aim of "denigrating" Biden's candidacy.

"He will pay a price," Biden said of Putin in an interview that aired Wednesday on ABC's "Good Morning America". "We had a long talk, he and I, and relatively well. And the conversation started -- 'I know you and you know me. If I establish this occurred, be prepared.'"

Biden held his first call with Putin in late January. The White House said at the time that Biden confronted the Russian president on a number of issues, including Moscow's interference in the 2020 US presidential elections, the massive Solarwinds cyberattack, the suspected poisoning of Russian opposition figure Alexei Navalny and reports of Russian bounties on American troops serving in Afghanistan.


The President wouldn't provide more details to ABC on what "price" Putin will pay, but the Biden administration is expected to announce sanctions related to election interference as soon as next week, three US State Department officials have told CNN. The officials did not disclose any details related to the expected sanctions but said that they will target multiple countries including Russia, China and Iran.

1. Wasn't Putin supposed to retire in January?

5. You're thinking of his Minion

Donald Trump. Easy mistake to make. Aside from the weird hair and bloated body, they're the same, vile soul less servants of evil.

6. Here's a tempting thought

Tell Vladdy that he’s getting permanent custody of the monster he helped create!

But that would put that foul beast out-of-reach of the real justice that awaits him here. Maybe after he has had his days in court, and then asset forfeiture, prison and total humiliation. I want to watch that unfold here.


I’m sure some Russian oligarchs would pay Vladdy top ruples to have a crack at his sorry, saggy, bloated ass (and I’m not referring to Barr here).

7. Putin knows better than to BS Biden. One of their most telling exchanges, remembering that idiot

Dubya said he could look into Putin's eyes and see his soul...
Biden to Putin, looking into his eyes: I don't see a soul.
Putin: We understand each other.
That is the true Putin and the only honest basis with which to deal with him.

8. Did Biden need to have someone make up a card for him?

Remember when Trump called Putin, and someone on his staff made a card that said "DO NOT CONGRATULATE"? Trump congratulated Putin anyway on his re-election, in a process that international observers unanimously branded as suspect.

Did anyone have to write a card for Biden?

9. The mug that preceded him botched things royal. But it is truly amazing how quickly ...

... Joe Biden has managed to bring things back under control. We aren't there yet, but we're going the right direction. Sometimes what you need is an adult in the room. Like when Barrack Obama was sworn in.

It is quite a thing to see how Biden's Presidency seemed started on Jan 5. It seemed that even without any sort of co-operation Biden was beyond transition: he seemed to be signing in and locking down. The exPresident* was being unplugged, one circuit at a time.
