This is not good. The world seems on fire. Maybe it always was. But we seem to be an unserious people dancing on the precipice of calamity.

It’s being reported this morning that already, dozens are dead. Russia has launched a full-scale attack in Ukraine. Not a “minor incursion.”

The US and its allies have condemned Russia and are imposing more sanctions after Moscow launched a brutal and withering attack on Ukraine and Kyiv overnight. President Vladimir Putin threatened “consequences you have never seen” to any country that tries to interfere.

Pray for the people of Ukraine and pray for the world.
