The Polish Mig's for drones debacle comes from the perception of a technologically inferior Ukraine taking the old hand outs from advanced Poland. Ukraine 🇺🇦 is actually the most advanced war machine on the planet in most areas. It doesn't need old Migs. With Sweden, 🇸🇪, it's net the most advanced.

When stupidity is considered patriotism, it is unsafe to be intelligent. ~ Issac Asimov #ThoughtfulThursday

Notes: 1) Historically, Russian invasion army's soldiers abandon the front and go home when their home is in jeopardy. 2) St Petersburg is reporting the failure of some civil infrastructure. Interesting times.

The joy of Canada 🇨🇦 joining the Eurovision song contest is next level for me. The culture of the free nations coming together.

Russian FSB has ensured a coup won't happen from agitators but it won't stop a coup. The FSB will mistakenly trigger it. Someone will find themselves as the only one with tanks and fuel. They won't want to coup but the FSB will fear them. Game theory drives. There is no choice but coup or die.

It's not easy being meme-d. #Oh-Gee-I-See-Algae 👀

Is there some kind of protocoup in Russia and a mini Kurd ground invasion of Iran going on? I'm not sure.

The joke right now is we should no longer call Russia a petrostate and instead call it a carparkstate.

I previously stated that famine can follow war or economic collapse and it's theoretical that Russia will have a famine. I'm upgrading that to possible for 2027. Issues around • Fertiliser from gas • Petrol for equipment • Labour • Stolen being closed

If Crimea and the South are disconnected from the grid, Russia will need to use generators. If Russia is out of petrol, then the generators stop. If the generators stop the drones stop. If the drones stop, Ukraine can assault with tanks and APC's.

What I expect from Belarus based on zero intel: 1) Belarus does nothing to remove Putin's repeater towers. 2) Ukraine hits them with drones next week. 3) Belarus continues to do nothing, but gets to operate its refineries. 4) Ukraine pins Belarus to hold its borders to keep its refineries.

If you want to see how to negotiate, look to Zelenskiy.

So when we denied the Ukrainians blew up that oil terminal, technically we weren't lying....

Russian milbloggers are absolutely convinced Crimea is about to have Ukraine arrive by amphibious landing.

Two things to encourage collapsing Russian lines. 1) Russian drones are charged by petrol generators which is now in short supply. 2) Historically troops left the front when they think their homes are in trouble. No petrol at home and fires in Moscow. One push and one pull.

Belarus's rhetoric is backing off because we all now know they are definitely not going to war and really don't want to be a target. Putin is desperate for what comes out their oil refineries.

A lot of interesting things today. The drones going deep are because Russia's air defence can't see them. Manpads hitting what they are defending. Hilarious. As they are drawing enemy fire onto the target, drones are actually 200% effective. 🎯

If only Trump had some cards he wouldn’t have had to surrender to Iran.

Any Star Trek fans? You’ll get this.

Putin as all of his military's logistics in the occupied territories continues to be blown up.

Broadly speaking, you get the government you tolerated.

Ukraines front line drone wall: Every Russian dies. Ukraines mid-range logistics strikes: Every Russian starves. Ukraines deep oil industry strikes: Every Russians poor. Russia will break this year.

more countries need to follow this example

Every time he leaves the White House, every place this treasonous asshole goes....start booing. That should be the tipping point.

Amazing. Ukraine 🇺🇦 can now hit anything anywhere on its territory. It took me a moment to process but that is amazing. It really is. No occupier is safe.

That which you permit, you encourage.

One of the biggest things I'd like people to know, is in regards to social programs, when the reply is 'we can't afford it', this is almost certainly wrong. Most of the time it's a lazy excuse designed to shut you up.

Putin will do anything to stay in power. This should answer your questions. 1) Mobilisation - Yes 2) Belarus - Yes 3) Nukes - No, MAD, China Mobilisation and Belarus will help the now at the expense of the future. To Putin, there is no future without the now, and he's losing.

Putin has made Moscow his throne. As long as the throne is strong and unharmed it reflects on Putin's strength. Ukraine can smash it. Ukraine doesn't have a throne but it has cultural sights. Mutually assured destruction will protect both.

SLAVA UKRAINI A coup could begin in Russia: dissatisfaction among oligarchs and security elites over Putin’s policies and the course of the war is growing, The Guardian reports.

You Want More Mayor Mamdani, ok........

They lie. They cheat. They profit. I'm fighting to ban members of Congress AND the president from trading stocks, because no one should be profiting off the backs of the people they were elected to serve.

Russia targets "military command and control facilities, air bases, and military industrial enterprises."

Europe will escalate in response, it always has, it never wants to. France's call to Belarus is to let them know not to get involved as it won't gain anything but destruction as Europe does the absolute minimum necessary to defend Ukraine… But it will do what's necessary. The escalating minimum.
