Lesser of two evils applies when there is a dichotomy of two likely outcomes both of which you see as evil.

In this case, the United States can simply not invade. Then there will be no problem.

The problem is that Jen Psaki is going on television and telling the country a bold-faced lie. It is just a lie, that is all there is to it. Russia is not the aggressor. The United State is the aggressor.

No US invasion, no evil.

Amazing. It's like you live in a parallel universe where the US, not Russia, is preparing to invade by amassing a hundred thousand troops, issuing insane ultimatums, dehumanizing the enemy daily on its propaganda outlets, etc.
Unless you are living in parallel universe.

Russia invaded Georgia in 2008 and created puppet state Abkhazia and South Ossetia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russo-Georgian_War

Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014, US was not involved. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation_of_Crimea_by_the_Ru...

US also not involved in the war in Donbas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Donbas

If you cannot provide proof, then what you said are flat out lie.
