Scott Ritter raided by the FBI

Its really sad how in that country the state police can raid your home and lock you up for expressing dissident opinions or opposing the war

What are the charges against him? FARA breach?

Yes, they're using FARA like its the Hoover days. 1st amendment in shambles

Ukraine going all in (Kursk incursion)

Why is Hunter Biden not charged then? I’m not fully appreciating the nuances and intricacies of US legal system to be honest.

Interesting vid. I'd like to point out that homeboy was implying that DC was not aware of this SMO into Russia.

Which makes sense cause there's one thing Uncle Sam would of mentioned: sustained breakthroughs only work with air superiority.

It looks like Ukraine brought enough armor for this push. They've also brought a massive amount of drones being makeshift awac support and EW jamming. Taking the Kursk NPP is the strategic objective (I would assume) but there comes a point where the russian airforce starts attacking the back-end logistics of this push.

This means that the UAF has to bring all its AA/AD very close to the front and make sure that this push doesn't get fab'd into dust.
So what, is the AFU is gona use its jets to help protect its supply chain?

If uncle sam wasn't cool about using drones to strike oil refineries, Ima thinking it's not gona be too happy about a non-combined-arms push to disable a nuclear power plant. This is just the musings of an arm chair general though; who knows how this plays out.

Does anyone remember when they were denying people were being conscripted?

Big error in judgement or simply way too slack attitude on the Russian side IMO

It was mentioned before there were a bunch of Russian border guards and not much else there to stop the Ukrainians who executed a well planned attack.

Now the Russians have to scramble forces to counterattack the Ukrainians which obviously takes time.

Another massive blunder if you ask me you'd expect them to be prepared after the earlier Belgorod incursions.

In the long run it probably won't change anything Russia is still the bigger player with more of everything, those numbers haven't changed.

This might buy Ukraine some very valuable and much-needed days or weeks of relief on the south-eastern frontlines.

Perhaps they also intend to essentially take the Kursk NPP hostage and then try to "exchange hostages" with the Zaporizhzhia NPP. But then again, the Zap NPP is on the wrong side of the river, even if Ukraine took it back, they couldn't hold it.
