#1 Another Quisling denazified at least partially in Ukraine by very active partisan warfare:

#2 Need to also mention a huge Russian ammo dump was recovered by Ukraine last night in a major advance east of Kharkiv.

The Russian Army sent their best to defend Kherson to the south, Ukraine lured them into the area w/o resistance, then cut them off from re supply by exploding all bridges into and out from Kherson oblast.

Now the Russians are starving for freaking WATER in Kherson and they have left the north and east to those 6 month contract soldiers.

I think a Russki collapse is happening before December like many analysts assumed due to the Kherson thing. They cannot pull those troopers out or supply them in.

#3 There are several "Russian military blogs" and many are good. Last night, all of them( there probably are 15 or so) repeated like a robot the exact same verbiage, so the state has communicated to them to cool it on being honest which several have been recently.

Here are a couple of examples:

#4 CORRECTION on the first post. The victim was a Russian military officer, not a Quisling. He was attacked by car bomb and they are now saying he is dead.

#5 Here is Igor Girkin/ Igor Strelkov( one is an oft used alias). This man was the Defense Minister for Donestk Oblast from 2014 during the initial invasion until very recently when he got arrested by the FSB for "being honest".
Well, he's being real honest now, I bet he gets executed eventually. He knows Russia is finished in Ukraine. I can't understand Russian lingo myself, wish I could:

#6 OK, important point here. The Russian commander that was killed in the car blast last night was in the middle of Berdyansk, which is as we speak being inundated by the Ukraine Army. Things are heating up for the bad guys in Ukraine

#7 Twitter algorithm had a post of someone talking about how UKR owns all the transit points into Kherson, must be a talking point by how often I saw this narrative repeated, and the person expounded on what that means to the UKR war effort.

Meanwhile the algorithm right above it had an instagram video of a Russian Train bringing supplies, tractor trailers, tanks, etc via rail into Kherson.

#8 Looks like Russian state TV is kinda losing their cool over the losses they are experiencing in Ukraine:

#9 I grow weary of this war. I don't have time to read all of these very lengthy articles and even when I do, I can't find any significant progress being made by either side despite the claims being made by Forkbeard and others. As far as I can tell, it's been a stalemate for quite some time now. But the death and destruction continue. Isn't it about damn time to stop fighting and start talking?

#10 Stalemate is about the best description of the fighting in Ukraine.

As TW saw it recently, it is like two spent fighters trying to land punches that don't do much damage.

#11 There evidently was some talking, but BoJo (as US proxy, surely) put a stop to that. His visit to Kiev was quite sudden.

#12 Russia's campaign has obviously culminated. Now Ukraine gets a couple of months before winter closes down to see if it can do better than stalemate. Likely bloody both ways.

#13 I grow weary of this war.

At least it's not 20 years like in Afghanistan.
