New Balance has government contracts. They make the running shoes that get issued to all Marine recruits when they arrive at basic training. How long before Admiral Tranny steps in and tries to cut a deal with Nike?
 
Competent attack? All things considered, this is just embarassing for Russia. Russia had a headstart in the East with the separatists, and it keeps reducing its goals. From going 1968 Czechoslovakia mode on Ukraine and threatening Finland and Sweden, to just limiting itself to "denazifying" Donbas and forgetting about anything else. And even the propaganda is pretty low effort with it being torn apart within hours.
The ultimate embarassment would be the nukes turning out to be mostly unusable because the maintenance money got blown on some Oligarch's yacht or mansion, or even the Russians just nuking themselves out of sheer incompetence. Which probably isn't unlikely, seeing that they are resorting to scooby doo vans as well as buses and dump trucks. Remember, the Euromaidan protesters in 2014 also used dump trucks as improvised armored vehicles. All in all, it's not unlikely that over time Putin's regime will just implode due to him not accounting for the regime being a kleptocracy.
 
Some more videos i found that i have not seen here

Chechens found quite a bit of cash with the recent supplies they got their hands on. Biden Bucks?



Some cute footage of ukrainian women welcoming DPR soldiers and neat footage of tanks

Ha-ha, nope. Their famous and much-touted neutrality went out of the window after they joined anti-Russian sanctions and seized the oligarchs' assets in Swiss financial institutions.

Let that sink in. The country that was (and probably is) safeguarding the Nazi gold, the paragon of not taking sides and the world's safest place to store money for hundreds of years, cucked to the demands of the USA.

Personally, I chalk it to Biden's masterful foreign diplomacy and irresistable charisma. The man sure knows how to work a crowd and has a way with foreign leaders, too.
Honestly, Switzerland ended their neutrality stance when they decided to join the UN in 2002.
 
"The US and its allies have begun to convey a new, longer-term goal for the war: to defeat Russia so decisively on the battlefield that it will be deterred from launching such an attack ever again" - CNN politics

This kind of rethoric is getting dangerous, tbh, it makes it sound that NATO is overtly at war with Russia.

This could mean that Ukraine is obliged to drive the Russians from Crimea and Donbass because at this point Ukraine depends on foreign aid to survive and have a huge debt to pay to the west.

Here's one sourced from all versions of the map on Wikipedia's Russian Invasion of Ukraine page. Map is subject to Wikipedia's Reliable Sources™ rule (i.e. New York Times). Flickering of claimed territory between frames is due to editors have an autistic slapfight over what constitutes a Reliable Source™. I don't necessarily endorse this map but Wikipedia is the easiest source to scrape maps over time from.
Here's an alternative one based on the maps put out here that I ran across earlier today.


You might not agree with all their assessments, but it's free of random flickering from edit warring.

It's just rhetoric to keep the MIC machine going, the profits and RD coming out of Ukraine are astounding
 
Super Sus was invited as an expert on Ukrainian TV.

He says that Russian soldiers are amazed by how prosperous Ukraine is with gas and roads. And that they kill anyone who does not have white armbands.

On the subject of Azovstal, he, as a professional caveman, says that people can only survive for a week without leaving

Jesus eff. It's like he was born 4 months premature and never developed beyond that.

Dear god, he looks like a nazi propaganda cartoon of a subhuman. I'm curious where he's getting that one week figure, if they have enough food and water they can hold out in there pretty much indefinitely. It won't be comfortable or sanitary, but it's doable.
