"SNIP......

“The stunning rout of Russian forces by Ukraine’s flash counteroffensive in the Kharkiv region does not, on its own, signal a decisive shift in the war to Ukraine’s advantage,” the Washington Post reports.

“Russia still occupies extensive Ukrainian territory, including the cities of Mariupol, Melitopol and Kherson, and Russian troops still control Putin’s coveted “land bridge” to Crimea, which Russia annexed illegally in 2014. And on Saturday afternoon, Russia immediately began to pummel the reclaimed territories with a fierce barrage of high-powered missiles.”

“But the Ukrainian campaign has cut enemy supply lines, revealed disarray in the Russians’ ranks, electrified Ukrainians, forced occupying authorities to flee and infuriated Kremlin boosters.”

New York Times: “Senior Ukrainian officials stepped up intelligence sharing with their American counterparts over the summer as they began to plan the counteroffensive that allowed them to make dramatic gains in the northeast in recent days, a shift that allowed the United States to provide better and more relevant information about Russian weaknesses, according to American officials.”

1. "The United States to provide better and more relevant information about Russian weaknesses."

Remember some of the documents that Trump stole as he was leaving D.C. were about our spy
satellites which we have no doubt "parked over" Ukraine. We can see "things" in great detail w/
those satellites. Trump has been working to help Russia overtake Ukraine from before 2016 and Paul
Manafort along with Mike Flynn have been working for Putin and his lap dogs in the Ukraine from
@ least 2013.

How the hell can any real American cheer for Trump and company? Sell out traitors. They need to
have justice find them.

2. These and other traitors need to suffer the full consequences of law.

4. Russia 2nd invasion of Ukraine in 2022 was after Joe Biden was President but I'm sure that ....

.... some very important and sensitive information that is still very useful now to the Russian
was in the files TFG stole. And since he is stupid he no doubt had help from Flynn, Roger Stone,
and Erik Prince (or people like them).

I had a family member who once worked w/satellites and to this day she/he can never say anything
about what he/she did. We need to pick up Trump now and question him about what he did,
what he took, who helped him, and who did he pass on information to.

I'm thinking some chairs w/straps, a hay bale, a brick wall, and ... Those fuckers sold out America
and people still support them think they are patriots?

6. i know putin controls the media with propaganda

so Russians really have no idea what a disaster this is for their troops, their economy, their standing in the world.......

but that being said propaganda can only go so far...... people are hungry and kids are never coming home from Ukraine, you can't just make a belly full and a troops come home from war with a fake story on state TV.

At what point does a revolution start in Russia? Are they really going all let Russia fall to disaster just to not cross Putin? I know his opponents keep "falling out of windows" but you can't push millions of revolting citizens all out of windows.

7. Malcolm Nance, ret. Gen Ben Rhodes think it is a major shift for Ukraine forces

Now, with the latest reports of Ukraine about to take back Izum, this is really big. Izum was a major resupply depot for the Russians.
