    so the barricades were trucks parked in the road? That’s pretty lame.

    CNN headline is “Apparent Insurrection in Russia”.

    Russia is turning into an absolute shit show.

    Would enjoy this if it were not for the madman having control of the largest collecting of nukes on the planet…

    Hopefully Ukraine can take advantage of this.

    P wants a harsher war, and has advocated for tactical nukes.
    I can’t real,y imagine a scenario where this is a de escalation, unless chaos ensues and their troops just say “f it” and leave Ukraine.

    They ran out of orange traffic cones. It happens.

    The way this war has been going, I'm surprised that Putin didn't have a toll booth set up outside the city to slow down Prigo's forces. Too Jewish? (Mel Brooks reference.)

    Shouldn’t this be scored to Flight of the Valkyries?

    Who really knows what he thinks? He just launched a civil war based on claims the war is based on a lie and is unjustified.

    P is a mercenary, right? His objective is to win the war he’s been assigned. I’ve seen no evidence he wants to fight the war at all if he’s not getting paid.

    It would behoove Ukraine if zelensky announced on the Russian frequency that all Russian troops stop hostilities and they will be allowed to withdraw into historic borders of Russia- can take small arms and trucks but leave tanks and arty.

    If Wagner and Russian forces engage in serious combat around Moscow it would seem there would be opportunity for Ukraine to advance the counteroffensive.
