  1. Ukrainians are being trained in Bulgaria in massive numbers too.

  2. I do work that has required ferreting out symbiotic corruption between Western officials, financial services, industrialists, etc. and agree w/his all his conclusions except for the idea that Germany must de-industrialize if they can’t get dirt cheap gas and unfettered access to Chinese markets. It will definitely hurt and contract, but the future is adapting modern, well educated nations into economies that include modern manufacturing for both the profitability and national security.

  3. Russian bloggers themselves said the Luhansk explosion was due to their own missiles.

  4.  @jdreyes3745  Yup, a “macho” dictator to crush any who don’t share their political and ideological values + an “electoral system” that ensures only they wield power. And, yet, they call themselves “American patriots,” “guardians of the constitution” and “freedom fighters!” More like the freedom to crush their “enemies” (IE anyone who doesn’t agree with them).

  5.  @franksims6452  You wanna know Mike Johnson’s worldview? “PICK UP A BIBLE!” [then quietly] “And… Art of the Deal. Use promo KISSTHERING.”

  6.  @mitchrodee  If he needs the info, he can contact me for details, but I doubt he’ll see this due to the volume of comments. I’m an analyst for a consulting firm, providing in-depth updates & predictions re: emerging, ongoing or possible crises in Eastern European and China. I’ll tweet him and see if it cuts through the clutter.

  7. The US notified Russia ahead of time Biden would be there so Russia could avoid any accidental strikes. Russia doesn’t want any part of a war with the US. (Edit: I see you mentioned that).

  8. Viktor Blacksmith! Wow! Awesome spirit. Just donated!

  9.  @ninemoonplanet  NATO dissolves entirely if he pulls out.

  10. I wouldn’t worry, “arresting” Kallas would be seen as an act of war against Estonia and therefore NATO. This is just for domestic consumption.

  11.  @shokwavxb  That, but I’ll be messaging my reps and even those outside to try and pile on a little extra pressure. Likely worth nothing, but who knows.

  12. People were terrified of Stalin even when he was stroke paralyzed and pissing himself. I think it’s a fantasy that some Kremlin insider is going to take out Putin. Putin isn’t Stalin, but today’s Russians are far softer than they were then. So, their fear of Putin is likely similar. They can also be too close to the situation to see exactly how weak his situation has become.

  13. Probably your best episode ever.

  14.  user-yp2mw2ko9k lol, yeah, Ukrainian refugees are given posh cars AND aid. 🤦‍♂️ Nice try, Krembot.

  15.  @paulmakinson1965  Exactly. Besides the climate, the biggest problem of our time and it only gets discussed by the very well educated and not by even a large % of them. Everyone should be required to read the book Moneyland. Global kleptocracy and tax evasion is the biggest threat to democracy and societal stability worldwide.

  16. FYI: it’s not true that Russia hasn’t been going after Ukraine’s air defense systems. They have been going after them. They’ve been shooting anti-radiation missiles at them from bombers.

  17. You’re misunderstanding Turkey. They want northern Syria for themselves. It’s part of his vision for rebuilding the Ottoman Empire. 🇹🇷 has also utilized the porous border to send fundamentalists to countries they want to destabilize.

  18. Americans are just intellectually lazy. But the true blame belongs to the media for manufacturing narratives like “war fatigue” (a ridiculous concept when people aren’t even paying attention to begin with), not communicating the fact that the war is basically costing us nothing because 80% of the arms given were scheduled to be disposed or were already being scrapped), focusing on a regional flare up (Israel) that doesn’t effect the world at all, not explaining that resupplying arms is generating a lot of jobs in the US right now in highly skilled areas, why the outcome of the war will impact us generations to come, etc. (the White House shares the blame here too for all these narratives except fatigue).

  19. As of November 7th of 2023, ”Russia has damaged 1,468 medical facilities in Ukraine during the 20 months of full-scale war, and another 193 facilities have been completely destroyed.”

  20. Russia has already left Syria and HTS + the SNA are, amazingly, even more of monsters than Assad. They’re Al Qaeda and ISIS rebranded.

  21. Friedman did it because he knows it makes him $, gives him influence, etc. He didn’t have to, but he wanted to do it for himself.

  22. Lovelace for life! Thank you, Tanika.

  23. So, please delete this comment. Macron is looking for an easy public relations win from something he knows he’ll never have to do.

  24. Ukraine’s infrastructure maintenance workers and volunteers are heroes. It’s amazing how fast they get things back online. They’re also better prepared this year to quarantine service cuts and restore services more quickly.

  25. That guy didn’t look like the real Putin. Muscovites don’t get mobilized. That’s another reason they’re indifferent.

  26.  @karabenomar 47% of Russians want to end the war even if it means losing all annexed Crimean territory. Only 12% of Russians support continuing the war.

  27.  @goenzoy They can buy from SK, the US, etc. and stop pretending like they need so much of their arsenal with America and NATO still protecting them.

  28. True, but different motivations.

  29. Jake Sullivan is probably one man who will never show his face in public in Ukraine.

  30. If Ukraine did Nordstream, it was a good thing. It made Germany finally accept they couldn’t go back to the old order. I still don’t think it was them, but I don’t think it changes anything.

  31.  @ruks345  Oddly, despite being the economic and political powerhouse of Europe, about half the population couldn’t stop seeing Russia as its big brother (the former East Germans) and the former West Germans had fully and naively bought into the idea of pacifism and the impossibility they could ever been on the other side of a military conflict with Russia. It’s why the Bundeswehr had been allowed to basically become de-militarized. I mean, their level of I don’t know what to call it exactly, even led them to shut down all their nuclear power plants overnight because one NP was hit and wrecked by a historic quake and tsunami after inexplicably sighted right along the ocean and had poor design.

  32. Technically, Ukrainian forces do cross the border, but only SOF goes into Russia and only for very special infrastructure targets. Not to battle Russian soldiers, which would make zero sense.

  33. You have to have Reporting From Ukraine. He has the definitive daily tactical report.

  34. The main disinformation 🇷🇺 is trying to push right now = that the West has spent $1 trillion on Ukraine. It’d be hilarious if there weren’t so many gullible people out there.

  35. 4:38 - Frodo Zelensky made me laugh so suddenly my dog got startled and barked at me. lol@believing Simonyan’s message was genuine. She’s Putin’s favorite stooge.

  36. There were damaged planes in those hangars. In more high resolution satellite photos, they were clearly visible.

  37. That would be Russia’s KIA rate if Ukraine still had all the arms and men they had before Johnson/Trump betrayed Ukraine.

  38. The guy who mentioned Dresden wasn’t serious. He was mocking Solovyev. Anyway, Russia has so few operational nukes, their threats ring hollow even in their own ears. As for those censorship laws, they clearly don’t apply to any of those people on state TV. Cause they talk about all of those things.

  39. Scholz’s mentor, ex-chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, is a god father to one of Putin’s children, a “close friend” in his own words, a former Gazprom board member and STILL refuses to condemn Putin. Scholz and the SPD are completely owned by Russia.

  40. Too bad Biden telegraphed the whole thing and let Russia move many aircraft + dig revetments. We’ve also given them very few ATACMS. So typical of the West’s tragicomic.

  41.  @roys4244 It very well could be. Or they’re MAGA groupies.

  42. Tim Pool’s view counts show most of his followers are fake since someone with 1.3m should be getting 20x-plus more views than 11.5k views on his new video.

  43.  @skipperclinton1087  I’d put my money on the USMC in M60A1s against Egyptian operated M1A1s (whose spec is mid-80s) any day.

  46. Those training levels are nothing new if you were paying close attention. Look at the numbers reported in Oct. - December of 2022 reported in Operation Interflex, Insight and Orbital.

  47.  @kaitospin3944 That’s what Erdogan would have you believe at least.

  48. Most of the people being polled about support to Ukraine simply have no idea what’s going on. Just we because we’re obsessed with the details, it seems like everybody must know. But they don’t. If they did know, support would be way higher.

  49. Without Putin, Kadyrov is dead. So, that’s definitely not his plan. His own people despise him.

  50. Russia’s military has already been crushed. They barely have enough munitions left for bare bones self defense let aggression. You’re right it’d be the optimal way to minimize the chances of a nuclear escalation, but it’d be a highly immoral approach that made Ukraine suffer badly and increase the cost of rebuilding it.
