They are belting it out with a passion

SNL cold open is the Ukrainian chorus of New York !

That is a well done photo

Good professional advice from those who spent may years of the last two decades fighting in cities. Baghdad and Fallujah are not Kiev but the ideas are sound. thread/

A real military -- particularly one from a country that produces fuel -- would have figured out how to supply their vehicles with fuel. Its not hard. You know how much fuel a vehicle burns in a day. You know that the fuel needs to get to a certain point where the armor and trucks can get to it before it can fight. If you can't master this stuff you won't win a war on a modern battlefield. Clearly the mypillow guy that Putin had telling him that this would be easy was not a master logistician

Seems to match what I've seen. The Russians don't appear willing to do their amphibious assault on Odessa yet.

grain of salt

Another observation about what appears to be the case from the available information: Russia has a lot of low-flying aircraft getting hit by shoulder fired weapons. Conclusion: They lack the ability to engage from atmosphere like 1st World forces can. The US would have been able to use PGMs guided by GPS (generic term...Russia uses something slightly less good called GNSS). I recall a discussion that Russia's GNSS would not be used in Ukraine. https://receive.news/02/18/2022/russia-should-abandon-glonass-over-loran-invasion-of-ukraine/ As it turns out this isn't great because it will teach China to improve their PGM use when they go up against the US and Japanese navies when they try to take Taiwan.

I'm too nauseous to look but I'm seeing stuff on twitter about tongue bath for Putin by Trump at CPAC

a little candy

There is just enough truth to this to be seductive. Be careful buying this though First item of concern is that Putin is loath to meet with anyone who isn't a toe sucker.

Oy, this seems like one of those stories that we should be careful with...but cool if true

This guy Abromovich is one of the biggest swines out there

Good news One of many

This is the British anti-tank system Nlaws

Woah, new news. Germany is sending anti-tank and anti-aircraft systems.

Wes Clark is talking no-fly zone.

Oblong, I recognize you haven't been paying close attention. This is the Javelin missile which the US has supplied by the thousand to the Ukrainians. We have also supplied various anti-aircraft systems, as well as other ammo, food and fuel. This process is slowed due to the airspace being contested. Now, most of this gear is coming in over the Polish border. The UK has supplied their own anti-armor and anti-air systems. The Germans supplied a ridiculous 5000 helmets which resulted in scorn. I would welcome supplying F-35s with PMC pilots.

Good news

IOW, it will matter in the suburbs.

Because, specifically that these idiots sold their souls to Russia and they are now in the position of having to support the murderers which if they change now, will be bad for their fundraising from the Kremlin and if they don't will cause them to look like assassins. Now, the average neckbeard idiot might not see that. BUT, it will matter in 2022 and 2024 if the election is about the murderers and their supporters vs. people who have souls.

Sure would be nice if CPAC were to issue a denounciation of Putin tonight.

HOLY CRAP.. RT is still on my Directv. Wut the awctual fwuck!

Foxnews' 9pm time slot is going to be embargoed as is Trump Tower and Mar-a-Lago
