You simply have to wonder if the senate minority leader or the guy who got beat up by his neighbor and spent July 4 in Russia are involved in some way.

If Ukraine somehow holds out and retains 70-80% of their territory after the war, I have to imagine that they are effectively going to be made into a fortress by the EU/NATO, in terms of mobile weapons systems, anti-air defenses, etc.

There’s gonna be so many tunnels painted on brick walls

A new Ukrainian deli just opened in my city...5 days before the war started, selling products from Ukraine and Russia. This has resulted in their supply from Ukraine effectively stopping. Despite this, they took all their Russian product for sale and destroyed it. Major guts.

 

I mean, they should have maybe donated it to a homeless shelter and taken the tax write off. But I understand.

The corruption is deep. This is the real Pizzagate.

Another rally in my city yesterday at our legislative grounds, much larger than last week. Hundreds of people even though a blizzard was basically starting. I got there early enough to get near the middle.

I think the stuff they destroyed was non-food stuff, mostly, from the pictures I saw! But definitely.

US intelligence has to be asking themselves if many of their assumptions about Russia's military readiness are accurate. When they said they estimate Russia has only been able to deploy about 75 fighter/bombers, many assumed that they were simply keeping the rest of their vast fleet in reserve. But...are they? Or does the apparent lack of maintenance/upkeep on their captured armour/trucks indicate the same may be true about the rest of their military?

Right - that absolutely stinks of something that while not necessarily illegal definitely should be investigated.

Three Russian commanders killed in Ukraine

Russians switch to long-distance bombardment as tank columns get bogged down north of Kyiv

Three commanders in Russia’s army have been killed after moving up towards the frontline in an apparent attempt to restore momentum to the invasion of Ukraine, according to Western sources.

 

The deputy commander of the 41st Combined Arms Army, Maj Gen Andrei Sukhovetsky, whose death from a probable sniper bullet was revealed on Thursday, is the highest-ranking member of the invasion force to lose his life after nine days of fighting.

 

Now Western officials have confirmed that a divisional commander and a regimental commander have also been killed, in what was described as a “surprising” development resulting from a breakdown in command and control systems.

Mariupol mayor: ‘We are simply being destroyed’

 

The mayor of Mariupol has reiterated the dire situation facing the city’s inhabitants as Russia continues to besiege it.

 

Mariupol currently does not have access to water, heat or electricity and food is in short supply, Vadym Boychenko warned on Friday.

 

He called for military help and for a humanitarian corridor to be created so that civilians can evacuate the city.

 

“We are simply being destroyed,” he said.

After watching this war unfold, Battlefield and COD games need to be redesigned:

• 128 players
• 4 players on each side are fully kitted but spend most of the game parading in front of media
• The rest of the players get partly functioning equipment, get dropping into the map without a map or any orders
• Half the game is spent parked in a forest while you wait for the bridge to be fixed
• Keep the voice chat and have people swearing at each other over open comms

I choose to assume these are Ukrainians getting ready for war. Do you think they're bringing the bear with them when they go off to the front?

Yup - they certainly have been.

That video above with the drone view of shelling shows that Ukraine may have released some water from the Irpin River (north of Kyiv) to flood the land between the Russians and the city.

This is the first video of the war that has brought me to tears. I just imagine my own wife wandering the street, scared and certain that she was about to die.
