President Joe Biden had a chat with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and it did not go well at all. The rumor is that Biden had to be told to calm down and that Kyiv was not about to be sacked. There are only bits and pieces of information, but if true\u2014this call was a train wreck. Also, where\u2019s the transcript? For now, it\u2019s a flurry of anonymous sources leaking portions that make Biden look terrible:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">BuzzFeed News, quoting source close to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAmericans are safer in Kyiv than they are in Los Angeles &#8230; or any other crime-ridden city in the US.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Breaking911 (@Breaking911)\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Breaking911\/status\/1485687711704965127?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 24, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>During a phone call Thursday afternoon, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reportedly told President Joe Biden to tone down the messaging as he continued to claim Russia was going to invade the country.

At any rate, he blew up Biden and the State Department\u2019s position of an imminent invasion. As for the Russian threat, Zelensky noted that it\u2019s been here for years.
