Have Starlinks really been switched off on Russia’s side? What impact will this have on battlefield and offensive operations? This could be a catastrophe for Russia. Why Musk and Starlink keeps becoming a battleground for Russia’s war for domination. youtu.be/NSvGDkAoBjo

Russia’s information front has never been more divided. On one side: regime’s studio fanatics — promoting war crimes, promising apocalypse, selling “victory” like they’re flogging a soda brand. On the other: Z-Patriots, milbloggers, turbo-nationalists. youtu.be/HsH9nomhLCQ

“‘Come to Moscow,’ the Kremlin says - make peace. Another offer, or rather ultimatum has been made to Zelenskyy – come to Kremlin to hammer out peace. This is not an offer designed for Ukraine – it’s 100% for Americans, for Vatniks and for propagandists. youtu.be/8lkZUH98OXE

Is India “dumping” Russian oil — or just re-routing for the sake of optics? Reality is messier — and far more damning. Reuters reports U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent accused Europe of buying Indian-refined products made using sanctioned Russian oil. youtu.be/7jZ_lzqSFtI

Russia’s war machine is bleeding out: it’s consuming its own elite troops and specialists on senseless tactics that deliver little result. New reporting claims Moscow is pulling people from the Strategic Missile Forces into ordinary infantry divisions. youtu.be/4AK8ZctZUW0

Russia raids elite branches of military to feed the infantry — while casualties spike and “mobilization” remains 'toxic'. The bulk of new ‘raw meat’ Putin is trying to funnel into the army are still expended in high-casualty, low-impact meat-wave attacks. youtu.be/4AK8ZctZUW0

We are entering an era of threat, distrust and coercive competition. Russia has not been deterred by red lines, NATO, Nuclear weapons or European military capability, from mounting invasions, committing genocide, and unleashing hybrid warfare. With Peter Apps - youtu.be/avXoSKJsCec

Two Americans dead in Minneapolis after encounters with federal immigration agents. Courts warning the administration to stop violating orders. Record low popularity. And inside Trump's world, the wheels are coming off. Will Trump TACO his own revolution?! youtu.be/YV-jJwXGfYo

@siliconcurtain.bsky.social Jonathan, if you haven't seen this -- it's exciting to hear from Sergej Sumlenny, and his info about drones is really amazing and eye-opening. www.youtube.com/live/gRS_GwK...

Russia’s advance slows to a "snail's pace" and nine-month low — signs of an army crisis, and why major 2026 offensives may be impossible. Today is day 1,435 of Russia’s full-scale invasion. The “unstoppable Russian offensive” narrative is hitting a wall. youtu.be/t3VXYKsIB5Q

The Russian army broke in 2025 - Putin's war has now lasted longer than the Great Patriot War, but barely moved from it's starting point. 'Progress' is literally slower than a snail's pace. Why Putin won't advance in 2026 with legendary Operator Starsky. @starskyua.bsky.social - youtu.be/fHTOU_CfoRY

Europe fired a legal warning shot across the bow of Russia’s “shadow fleet” — the aging armada that keeps Putin’s oil money flowing. The intent is clear: we’re done letting this fleet pass uncontested. Prepare for a direct Baltic confrontation with Putin. youtu.be/Zm6uR9kRDpE

Are Eurovision fans here? We have a special announcement for you 😉 Together with Monokate, we are launching a fundraiser to purchase 33 drone detectors for the three brigades. Our goal is $22,500. Let's show the world that art can bring light and conquer evil: dzygaspaw.com/monokate-an...

Is Russia’s imperial phase ending — and is Putin accelerating the collapse? Russia is waging a 21st-century war with an 18th-century imperial mindset. Is Putin’s attempt to “save the empire” through aggressive attritional war destroying it in real-time? youtu.be/f6ofzlR7eZA

What are the peace negotiations for? When 'Security Guarantees' brokered by Trump and offered by Putin are worthless. As fake talks are ongoing, a million people in Kyiv have been plunged into deadly cold by Russia, which is determined to erase Ukraine. youtu.be/msyCbiiKS-A

Elon Muskovitsch:„Free speech for me but NOT for thee“ „Enough with the free speech bullshit. You are manipulating people through algorithms! This is NOT free speech at all!” Will Europe wake up & acknowledge the danger of billionaire privatized social media platforms? @siliconcurtain.bsky.social

Western Allies are not ready for the 'Adapt or Die' dynamic of drone warfare, where iteration cycles are measured in weeks, not months or years. Catching up is not about scaling production lines, but building a new culture of innovation. With Preston Stewart - youtu.be/Cs-lC9MRPJY

Russian warships escort “grey fleet” vessels through the English Channel — a confrontation in the making? A potential flashpoint, sanctions enforcement colliding with Russian naval deterrence, Putin running maritime cover for his illegal oil export fleet. youtu.be/5UfxVv9EBAM

“Treason” in the PLA? Xi’s unprecedented purge — corruption, loyalty, and coup rumours. Not “just another corruption scandal” in China. This is the Chinese Communist Party conducting a purge of the absolute top figures in the People’s Liberation Army. youtu.be/6T3GDiDFwR8

The U.S. is not helping. They are selling weapons at a profit, but that is not really that impressive. Overall, Trump has been awful for Ukraine.

Just listening to a fantastic conversation between Jake Broe @realjakebroe.bsky.social And Jonathan Fink @siliconcurtain.bsky.social It’s really Worth Listening https://youtu.be/WbbmGsydzvE?si=vnqJquifsxKEO_9i #UkraineWar #Politics

Davos is where elites usually congratulate each other for polite 'dialogue' then fly home to vigorously pursue inaction. This week Davos heckled America, specifically the Trump administration and its minions' new habit of treating allies like adversaries. youtu.be/1iL8yjaHM4o

@siliconcurtain.bsky.social nails Zelensky's speech👇 European Leaders: Wake Up❗ Ditch empty declarations—deliver what #Ukraine needs to WIN. #Putin won't quit without being forced. If Europe is to have lasting peace, we must defeat fascist #Russia, otherwise they'll just rearm and attack again.

There is compelling evidence that oligarchs and 'elites' are stripping Russia, turning wealth into portable asset, preparing for a collapse, chaos or defeat, that they all know is coming. They know the regime could fall soon. But does Putin realize this?! @jjsmart.bsky.social - youtu.be/Ub2JXC5CYoQ

Is there any difference in terms of substance between JD Vance who screamed to Zelenskyy’s face, in the Oval Office, about not showing gratitude and being disrespectful, and between Europeans that say the same, in muted tones, but behind Ukraine’s back? youtu.be/EJ2eRyMwT3M

Putin's regime is on a precipice - as his senseless war brings Russian economy to the edge. In 2026 Putin must choose - return to Soviet militarized command/terror economy and continue war, or stop. There's no middle way to save his regime. @annafromukraine.bsky.social - youtu.be/E4lJBZcr3FU

Russia’s war economy is under strain - and the “civilian economy is collapsing.” Russia’s own economic data shows double digit falls in production. How much of this is linked to Ukraine’s strike campaigns on energy refining infrastructure? @realjakebroe.bsky.social - youtu.be/WbbmGsydzvE

Russia is burning through its gold — is this a sign Putin’s war economy is getting desperate? Easy money is running out fast – from hydrocarbons and minerals to strategic reserves. Now Putin must dig deeper to fuel his war mania and lust for conquest. youtu.be/fgn9VssGu-k

Greenland, Iceland, what's the difference

At least I knew which country I wanted to invade. #davos26

How Putin's regime ends - indicators suggest Russia's economy is declining rapidly, and falsification of economic data is widespread and extreme. The end of Putin's tenure in the Kremlin could come from a sudden, systemic banking / finance crisis in 2026 - youtu.be/0-ySMmUfOfI

There is a non-zero chance of U.S. invasion of Greenland - not based on Geopolitical objectives - rather Trump's need for distractions, as internal politics gets toxic: a poor economy, blow back from ICE activity, the Epstein scandal, etc. @malcolmnance.bsky.social - youtu.be/1V-3G1KHypo

The Kremlin’s coming economic squeeze and potential mobilisation prompts whispers of discontent from Oligarchs - and Oleg Deripaska is the latest. In Putin’s Russia, oligarchs don’t speak their minds, and cannot critique power, or decisions of the Tsar. youtu.be/Fd00yi7UzZQ

Russia's 'irrational' loathing of Britain runs deep. Why do they hate us so much? And why Britain may become the main focus of Russia's hybrid warfare as Putin gets desperate. We discuss Ukraine, as the shield of Europe and the evolution of drone warfare. With Elizabeth Bullock. youtu.be/TcWD4Egai4M

Nothing makes sense. And everything is clear. Trump says he 'needs' Greenland to deter Russia while starving Ukraine of support and now inviting Putin, Orbán and Lukashenko onto a “Board of Peace.” Is this real or the hugest piece of trolling in history? youtu.be/kvqKZA1rHLA

The 21st century has somehow become entangled with the 20th – an echo of fascistic philosophy, predatory empires and a breakdown in global security and trust, that led to the horrors of the second world war. Stephen Miller is the starkest example of this. youtu.be/IdkQIATDsMQ

ICYMI Stalin is Putin’s personal hero and role model. Expect these purges to escalate as Putin grows more paranoid and concerned with his grip on power as the war on Ukraine continues to go badly for him.

Coming soon to a city near you, if trmp continues his implementation of P2025, we will see this here in the USA. His first step was to invoke 18 U.S.C. 2331(5) and broaden it to define domestic terror acts.

Popcorn in the Kremlin, as world wonders whether Trump will order troops to invade Greenland, a fellow NATO member, or invade a U.S. city instead – Minneapolis. Is the military really to be deployed to support ICE thugs in a crisis manufactured by Trump? youtu.be/pCR9FchF-gw

Putin is turning on regime 'loyalists.' Arrests, seizure of property, reputational ruin and stripped of power and status. If you lose proximity to power in Russia, you lose everything. More elite Russians are being incarcerated or dying mysteriously. youtu.be/CJ_tdk9B7nk

Putin cannot defeat NATO in a direct fight. But Trump can tear it apart for him, and make it look like an inside job. He is accomplishing this task. Divide and conquer is the Russian imperial mechanic, that has been used relentlessly for four centuries. youtu.be/zvEg-hhrw4I

The ratio 27:1 sounds obscene, when referring to combat losses, but it's good - It shows the way to Russian defeat. This is the brutal arithmetic of Russia’s infantry-first meat grinder” tactics, and how Ukraine is turning Russia’s mass into a liability. youtu.be/HKX_sbLxX-U

I was on @siliconcurtain.bsky.social to talk about my new @yalebooks.bsky.social book 'The Return of Russia', and much, much, more over the last 30 years of Russia's relations with the West.

As expected Russia is escalating, because the war is going badly for them. Karaganov says Russia must “erase Europe with nuclear weapons, to save humanity and avoid ww3” This despicable message is amplified by T Carlson, of course.

Kadyrov’s mafia dynasty wobbles. Kadyrov Junior was in a serious car crash, while Ramzan's kidneys are failing. A gunfight in Mariupol between Chechen and Russian soldiers hints at a deeper struggle. Succession in Chechnya is a dangerous time for Putin. youtu.be/cRjPRsdvGdQ

Are we going to war with Trump's U.S. over Greenland - as it turns predatory? Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges cannot reassure us that it won't happen, but explains the consequences are more serious than we imagine. We're close to the edge. @general_ben @DavidDebatto - youtu.be/JTmBBx3Cr_Q
