  1.  @ThousandCuts-tb2ej  Skabeyeva did a surprising piece on russian state TV by counting obituaries in russia. It wasn't so shocking that they actually showed even more than Ukraine numbers. It was that someone in the russian government allowed the broadcast in the first place. Either putin did wanting to start setting russian expectations (unlikely). Or a very powerful person allowed it with protection from putin.

  2. From citizen to martyr in 8 days. No wonder the Orcs stumble & bumble.

  3.  @aussiemozzie8123  One bungled war after another. They did have some decisive victories in the Expansionist Wars. Against much weaker foes, naturally. But it is like, what have you done lately in the last 300 years? LOL!!

  4. The desire to survive is deep & primal. It was probably all he could think of to try. Dumb thing to do, but the drone probably would have sent a molten jet of plasma through him no matter what he tried.

  5.  @freak94able  Anything is possible when 'you close your eyes & recite putin lies' huh, freaky. All you need is Ruby Slippers to click together as you recite it. LOL!!

  6.  @QANews  As soon as russia withdraws, all tortured victims that were taken by russia are returned or accounted for, and the Orcs start moving toward real peace, then negotiations will start. In a year or so of real peace, some sanctions may be lifted.

  7.  @danielduncan6806  The motive of traitor can vary widely. I see you are telling the story of a traitor to russia is a traitor. Can we assume your position on a traitor from Ukraine would be a patriot? Funny how view points change depending on political affiliations. I can see a traitor being in it for money or for morals. From either side.

  8. OH!! If little putin loses Bakhmut . . . Well so far he doesn't seem embarrassed by any of his other blunders. Of course there is always that next mutiny just around the corner.

  9.  @yfpdfybt  I'm sure your facts tell you the big boom at the end was just fireworks for their big New Year's celebration.

  10. It is the lemming's choice. It do feel sorry for the free independent thinkers that were imprisoned or worse for the last 200 years in Orclandia. And this is what you get. A timid, VERY compliant population that will do anything for the Lord & Master. I do feel sorry for the Zombies sometimes. Then I remember the glee many of them will carry out war crimes. The few that would never do that (and there are some) will happily sit at home watching state media gleefully cheering on the mighty russian army as others commit war crimes. Strangely all my pity goes away.

  11. Certainly longer range.

  12. Orc trolls say a lot of things. Even a blind hog roots up an acorn now & then.

  13. The helicopter likely didn't even know they were there. Many of these drones aren't much bigger than a pizza. The sky is a big place. But with the kamikaze drones now exploding shrapnel downward onto parked bombers, it wouldn't take too much to imagine one in this case. Wouldn't be seen. Would have to hit it. Just get in the way above it not too far. Limiting factor would be frequency separation so you probably couldn't saturate an area (assuming you could find that many operators). But it is an interesting concept.

  14. May they gloriously regroup all the way back home. Where the FSB has a warm welcome waiting for them.
    14
  15. The Orcs . . . They are crafty ones. LOL!!

  16. Prigozhin brought expectation back down to reality? He has been the guy saying 3 or 4 times Bakhmut is ours. Or almost ours for the last 4 months. Every week touting the great gains made in the direction.

  17. Great video today RfU!! We really appreciate it.

  18.  @robertmusilbronson3118  Why, no robert. I didn't understand that at all. Just starting my day so I haven't had my daily fill of dim wit putin's lies yet. So do tell me more. I notice you aren't answering anybody else back.

  19. Even if so inclined, they would need to be invited by Ukraine. I don't think they have done that.

  20. Those in the Orc horde aren't always fools. Only in their collective actions do they seem so.

  21.  @allisonmarlow184  Wasn't it the Three Stooges that coined the phrase, 'If at first you don't succeed, keep on sucking 'til you do suck seed'? 🤣🤣🤣

  22.  @MrCobalt  Fabby is one of my fave trolls. He tells the funniest stories & sometimes makes putin look like such a fool. LOL!!
    13
  23. Priggy may be in a bit of a bind. It would be a shame to take all of Bakhmut only to have to pull back to save whatever you can of your fighting force. Playing him like a drum, he sees what is coming but can do nothing about it.

  24.  @wishusknight3009  Yolo isn't the brightest troll at the farm is he?

  25. A standard type certification in any new jet fighter is 4 to 6 months. No matter what the SAAB test pilot says. You don't 'unlearn' your previous plane that fast & developing muscle memory doesn't happen that fast. Unless SAAB has 'mind-meld' technology. Be patient. After all this is over, Ukraine may order Gripens.

  26. It is a pretty startling turn of events. I'm not sure Chuckles the Tsar was the main reason. It was pretty obvious they had such a hard time with Chechnya in their first war there. The much smaller & weaker nation that Ukraine handed russia a pretty embarrassing defeat. If Chechnya hadn't had traitor (Kadyov the Elder) they would have whooped them the second war too. I'm sure heads rolled in the orc military after that. They in effect just replaced one set of thieves to another.

  27. In the parlance of a dictator, taking an operational pause might be seen as a weakness. You wouldn't want to see clueless putin dragged out into the streets of moscow would you? 🤣

  28. The pipeline of deliveries for stuff not sent yet will go on for months. BUT, it isn't a great signal for our allies we have had many decades, that we 'weenie' out on them at a mere political whim.
    12
  29. I can't think of a single NATO country expanding it's borders after joining NATO. Strange don't you think?
    12
  30.  @NPSpaceZZZ  Sure ƵƵƵ. When baby putin was in Heaven just before he was born, the Angels were passing out brains. Baby putin misunderstood & thought they said trains. So he said give me a slow one that takes lots of unexpected side trips. And make it go clickity-clack at night so I can go to sleep easily.
    12
  31.  @bigbubba4314  I'm sure a political officer & loyal follower of Putin. Such a 'cush' job. Slaughter on a massive scale made easy. LOL!!
    12
  32.  @jawadad73  Their teetering population pyramid now would say otherwise. Losing 30 million to kill 3 million in a war where the winter is what really stopped Germany, isn't a workable situation. BTW, the effects of the lose of so many in WW2 does still ripple thru their population statistics. The russian population was 100 mil in 1930. So it has grown 40%. Much slower that other developed countries. Germany has grown 77%. With many caveats.

  33.  @diodotos  It's okay. Martin has no idea what he said either. LOL!!
    12
  34. Where did all the russian trolls go? The must be a 'Liars Convention' in the russian swamp.
    12
  35.  @jollyrogerco9185  You know . . . Objective and honest. The opposite of Chuckles the Czar's lies. Just in case you aren't familiar with objective & honest.
    12
  36. Honestly, Pootie is a tea-totter. Having a glass of champagne on rare occasions. I don't suppose that makes up for everything else you said though.
    12
  37. NEWSFLASH: All stores in Ukraine have run out of popcorn. Further developing details will be broadcast later. LOL!!
    12
  38.  @fabb5  You know . . . Successful? The opposite of what Chuckles the Czar has?
    12
  39.  @Kiev-in-3-days  The very phrase '2nd army of the world' is in fact a russian one. It came admittedly after the US and probably most of Europe considered them the boogey men a few decades ago. But they absolutely called themselves that. The unique russian psyche is combination of pompous self importance mixed with a lot of doubt whether it is really true. Now, since the new amateur rocketry club formed in Kyiv, they find themselves the 3rd most powerful in Ukraine.
    12
  40.  @bfyrth  I think it will be over when the mighty Orc army gloriously regroups all the way back home. Despite your optimistic outlook.
    12
  41.  @miquelr2353  His track record as reported on other channels & how they recommend this one all the time. Even the Orc channels confirm what he says . . . When they are forced to. Just the way the trolls attack this channel will tell you he is hitting a nerve with weak little putin. LOL!!
    12
  42. He does do a good job, doesn't he? I have seen a few just as good but none better. Maybe I can spare some donation. I will see what he has.
    12
  43.  @yellowtunes2756  LOL!! Zelensky has been telling his partner nations that he would do it their way & rejected their plans. If you are saying Ukraine is a puppet state, you are no proving you only repeat putin's rhetoric. No wonder people call you a troll!!
    12
  44.  @unclegrandpaontrade3865  Another great t-shirt idea. 'According to the Orc troll reading his script from brain dead putin . . . '
    11
  45.  @JIUNnF  I'm sure putin will be very proud of your spiel.
    11
  46.  @luckyluke8052  You got the troll farm 'Contest for most creative use of emojis' wrong there, Luke. You don't get a free trip to putin's funeral. You get a trip with the little freak to a tribunal. Just thought I would let you know before you put too much effort into it. LOL!!
    11
  47. Maybe since the West Africans, Nepalese, Chechyans, and all other foreign fighter don't seem to be working out for Pootie, maybe he could see how much the Houthis' would charge. At least until putin's best bud Kim can produce this 1 million man North Korean army.
    11
  48.  @Sameoldsongdance  You may be a little early. I don't see his comment.
    11
  49.  @DailyWorldWideNews945  Why do trolls about to say something very anti-Ukranian or make up numbers for Orcs, preface it with 'I'm pro Ukrainian but . . . "??
    11
  50. We do have to respect the Russian experts on this. Because if anyone knows about taking tiny chunks of land & taking a week to do it . . . What I don't understand it Russia takes a week for small piece of land & the trolls trumpet it as complete victory. Ukraine takes a lot more in a few days & it is a failure of Ukraine. Doesn't quite fit the narrative. Maybe a double standard? Hummm
