You’d never accept a Russian source sonI provide a Western source. And this is how you repay my charitability.

 

Posters who maintain there is unrest in Russia have sources close to to the Kremlin. Sources …

Putin's "popularity" is dropping like a rock since the Kursk invasion and the realization that Putin is incompetent. He may need to have his polling experts remind the public that they are carrying guns and will use them if the poll results are not satisfactory.

Putin’s popularity falls after Kursk invasion, says Kremlin-linked poll

 

Russians lay flowers down the street from the Kremlin to express their sorrow at the loss of their fallen leader and military hero, Yevgeny Prigozhin. His "courage, charisma, and heroism" can be contrasted to the cowardice, incompetence, and repulsiveness of "Vlad the Bad" Putin.

Russians mark year since Prigozhin's death with flowers, tributes

 

I wonder if Putin understood what a “no-limits” friendship meant to Xi when he agreed to it.

Just read the houthis blew up a Greek flagged tanker, likely part of the dark fleet carrying Russian oil, off their coast creating their own ecological disaster all in support of Palestine.

Zelensky’s TikTok raid on Kursk was essentially over before it began …

 

Ukraine has a new rocket drone that has a range of 400 miles. I wonder what kinds of things are within 400 miles of New Ukraine (Kursk)? There are 24 Russian air bases within range of this rocket drone. Moscow is only 523 miles away from the Ukraine border (Old Ukraine, not New Ukraine).

Ukraine says it used its new long-range 'Palianytsia' rocket drone for the first time as it targets air bases deep inside Russia

 

Spreading their remaining (assuming there are remaining) air defense equipment even thinner.

Russia is so screwed.

Nearing 3 years in, and this has got to be one of if not the most expensive war they have ever been involved in, and Putin is now in assassination watch.

 

How them sanctions going ?
