According to Ryan McBeth, Russia has lost the war.

Its armoured vehicles that it uses to transport troops and kit to the front line, are gone. All gone.
Hence the videos of motor bikes, baby strollers, electric scooters, donkeys, mules, horses, camels, North Koreans etc.


And Musk claiming Ukraine will inevitable lose and talking up consequences of cutting off Starlink.

In that video Ryan mooted the idea of Zelenskyy stepping down in exchange for US weapons. That's the daftest idea I've heard for a while. Right now, the US can't be trusted. There's nothing to suggest the US wouldn't renege on that deal as soon as Zelenskyy had gone. Zelenskyy must stay.
Yes, I instantly dismissed that idea as well. Zelensky himself has mooted the idea of him resigning in return for Ukraine joining Nato. I'm not sure about that either. Things are moving so fast, with ideas and proposals moving in and out of scope.

I do wonder whether the minerals deal was actually a good idea by Zelensky. It has brought out the worst in Trump and has caused more problems than it has solved. The level of animosity Trump has shown to Zelensky makes you wonder if Trump offered a cut to Zelensky, and he politely declined. If so, he will now have something on Trump.

Integrity.

On a very different theme (apologies), I note that every time that orange **** speaks from the oval office,
there's a mask of Churchill on the table behind. I find that f****** offensive. Churchill would be turning in his
grave at the antics of this prick and his backward ideas and cronies.
He wants people to see him as Churchill !

No f***ing chance !

The bust would do a better job.
Could we get someone to sneak a lettuce in there?

Tesla sites are the new Russian oil refineries.

They are going up in the US as well as France.

Russia has cut off access to Telegram in Dagestan and Chechnya, fearing it may be used by activists to coordinate unrest.
(I read it this morning and now, usual story, I can't find it).

This could be an indicator of existing, isolated unrest in the Caucasus. I can't find anything else on it yet. Might be worth keeping an eye on.

Trump will blame democrats and Ukrainian regugees living in the US.

'early preventive measures ' from Putin. What we need in those areas is some arson of police/military recruitment stations, government vehicles etc. Warm themselves in winter.
