This whole thing doesn’t make sense to me. Of course I’m skeptical of a lot of the information being posted on social media. I just read that the Russians have overtaken Chernobyl.
The other interesting thing is I keep seeing reports of how easy it’s been to subdue Russian forces. They are using older tanks that seem to be easily overpowered. There’s also reports of the soldiers being very young and poorly trained. So if that is true I don’t get that. It’s like Putin is really doing this as a distraction for something else. I can’t imagine that if you were going to invade a country and you’re a world power you wouldn’t use your best equipment and trained people to do it in the shortest amount of time.
There was this documentary I watched once or twice about a criminal that does some stuff to distract from what he was really trying to do which was to rob the federal reserve of all its gold with a bunch of dump trucks. I really hope someone is paying attention.

I really hope someone is paying attention. I would say the videos of broken down crappily maintained equipment is 100% legit. Remember that their sole "functional" aircraft carrier is a diesel that needs to be frequently towed. They were a well trained force 30+ years ago but that included people that are now retired (and the people of the Ukraine etc.) I stand by my earlier statement that this will be done in 1 week+. Young dudes have no supplies and their shit is breaking. They are mostly millenials being led by a dude that has an ego that somehow dwarfs Dipshit with an inversely sized military budget. Even our outrageous budget and trained troops produce stories of crappy equipment and readiness... and countless breakdowns. Regarding Chernobyl, I scratched my head with that - especially since I thought that was officially an off-limits place to anyone liking life. Only thing I can think of is he wanted to button down a huge source of dirty bomb material. Relatedly, though he has thousands of nukes - it is expensive as fuck to maintain them and keep them ready. If he were to use one he likely has a 50/50 shot of it blowing themselves up/being a dud vs. launching.

Imagine for a moment what America’s response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine would look like if Trump had won the previous election or been allowed to steal it? I think you could probably say goodbye to most if not all of Eastern Europe.

He would already be in Berlin by now had Biden not been elected.

That picture of the Ukrainian bro is from April 2021. Cruz could have personally fixed the power grid of Texas had he not left. The thing Texas needed at that moment was more people drawing from the limited power they had so he definitely needed to stay.

Maybe Putin and Donald have an agreement to have Donald fly in like a hero to Belarus and broker a fake peace deal and lock in his next 4 years

He would already be in Berlin by now had Biden not been elected. Also do you remember that time Trump illegally withheld $400 million in military aid to Ukraine in an attempt to get The President of Ukrainian to gin up a bogus investigation into his political rival Joe Biden? That was the first time he was impeached.

That was the first time he was impeached. Lulz. Let me guess, you own stock in Lockheed and are pissed off that they didn't raise their dividend because Orange Man was dilatory in sending your fucking tax dollars to Ukraine so they could turn around and buy shit from Lockheed? Does Quid Pro Joe have a family member still on the board of a pipeline company over there? Serious question - how in the fuck does the US have this massively developed statute and body of law called the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act that bars US companies from greasing the family members of foreign dignitaries but they don't have any corollary that keeps people like Bitch McConnell from having a family interest in a Chinese shipping conglomerate or Hunter Biden from getting on the board of a Ukrainian gas company? Funny how no one in the media ever fucking asks that, isn't it? I saw Vindman is finishing up a PhD and got himself a goodbye kiss, errr, um, fellowship, from the Pritzker library. Where you taking bets he will end up to get the big payday? Northrop? Lockheed? Raytheon? L3? Oh wait, that never happens. The "military industrial complex" is totally fake. All those defense contractors. So few wars. SEND THE BOYS TO UKRAINE!

It seems that the Russians are just slaughtering Ukrainian citizens now.

You never know the veracity of these sorts of videos, but one thing's for certain and that is that I would stay the hell away from a belligerent's vehicle in a situation like this because at any moment a drone coming in at roughly mach 4 could slam into the thing. Maybe I watched too many of those videos from America's last excursion in the sandbox. "Clear to engage?" "Dust him..."
