What does respond accordingly mean?  

Eventually someone is going to have to stop Putin. I’m not saying that time is now (for the US), but the world can’t let him go on a murderous rampage and threaten anyone who dares to stop him with nukes.

The US has nukes too, and a long policy of strategic deterrence, just to stop this sort of thing.

The current SWIFT ban is easily circumvented as I point out in my prior post.  He still allows US to buy Russian crude oil. Plus Germany will only go so far as to not get their Gazprom spigot turned off.

Biden and Dr. Jill are probably spending most of their time fuming at Putin for doing this as the presidential election cycle starts this fall and gets into high gear early next year.

Same exact stuff was done in WWII. It's not cancel culture. It's that you don't provide your enemy access to your technology, funding, and resources. Make no mistake, Russia is the West's enemy.

If they want the benefits of Western investment, technology transfer, and resources then they must stop their invasion of a sovereign Western country.

What an idiotic thing to say. Ukraine, under pretty much any reading of international law, has the authority to decide who uses its airspace. Right now it appears to only have partial POWER to enforce that. It still has the authority to declare such and to request anyone willing to help. If the United States wanted to help, there is nothing from an authority standpoint to say we cannot. Practical problems? Absolutely!

But the question was under what authority can the United States enforce a no-fly zone over Ukraine. Ukraine can grant that authority.

We helped. Massively. I don't know if you are fully aware of what the Soviets produced and sacrificed. They paid their share in blood.

Ukraine raised more than $270 million in its first auction of war bonds on Tuesday, officials said.
The sale raked in 8.1 billion Ukrainian hryvnias to help fund its military amid the ongoing Russian invasion, the Finance Ministry tweeted.
The hryvnia is worth a little more than 3 cents.
In an interview with Bloomberg Television, Ukraine's commissioner for debt management, Yuriy Butsa, said the government was also exploring other ways to raise money.
"We had an investor call yesterday, and we see a lot of requests of how funds can support us," he said.
"We're looking at ways to attract not only in local currency, but also in dollars, euros."

Yes, punishing a nation-state for blowing up little kids is exactly like cancel culture. Invading a sovereign nation is exactly like making a racist joke on Twitter or engaging in wrong-think.
