Your ilk is linking malcontent news.
Did you ever find proof that Jackson Hinkle is a Russian asset? Or more baseless mudslinging, the common theme from you and your pro war tribe.

British Defence Intelligence
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 14 August 2022
INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
Over the past week, Russia's priority has likely been to re-orientate units to reinforce southern Ukraine. However, in the Donbas, Russian-backed forces – largely militia of the self-proclaimed Donetsk People's Republic - have continued to attempt assaults to the north of Donetsk city.
Particularly heavy fighting has focused on the village of Pisky, near the site of Donetsk Airport. The settlement probably remains contested. The area has been on the front line of the Donbas Line of Control since 2014. The Russian assault likely aims to secure the M04 highway, the main approach to Donetsk from the west.

Did you forget that it was Russia who invaded Ukraine? Did you forget that the USA has a treaty with Ukraine to provide them with assistance? Do you think that Russia would stop with Ukraine if the USA did nothing? Russia and Putin caused this war and if they succeed in Ukraine they will go after the Baltic states next. The Baltic states are part of NATO which means WW3 starts if they are attacked. You can call me a warhawk all you want, but you are wrong.

An old Chinese guy about 2.5 millennia ago said "When you surround an army, leave an outlet free". The cluster of the Russians trying to scurry back across the limited egress over the Dnipro is going to make their failed crossing of the Siversky Donets River 3 months ago look like a walk in the park.
Be on the lookout for a 5 kiloton tactical nuke if this happens.
As a side note, Russia can't be defeated in war because they have (lots) of nuclear weapons. They will over time rot from within. They have little to offer civilization.

Russia can’t be defeated in war? You’re kidding right? Russia lost in Afghanistan, they are losing in Ukraine no matter what the Russian trolls on here are saying. They expected to be in Kyiv in a week at most and are now pulling back their supposed target every time they get stopped from advancing so the brainwashed Russians back home still believe they are the mightiest military on earth. Russia is a big part of Germany if we hadn’t sent them thousands of trucks, planes and ammunition. Yes they have nukes but so do we and a lot of other nations who would launch on them if they ever thought about trying. Mutually assured destruction works, even Putin isn’t stupid enough to do that and if he ever tried he would probable get a bullet from his generals who like life and would like to continue living. Like Trump said, they have nukes but ours are better and the Russians know this.

but but Jackson Hinkle who won an award likely sponsored by Syria's Assad, the Serena Shim award.
His background is being a community organizer promoting Medicare for all, Sustainability, ban nuclear power, and the list goes on.
the dude is a far leftist.
He loved him some lockdowns in California

Make that 100's of thousands including Sherman tanks which the Russians preferred because they didn't constantly break down, and locomotives, and factories/refineries and even fuel BTW, their logistics was on US made trucks and locomotives.
They may have still beat Germans back due sheer numbers of cannon fodder

“Likely sponsored” by [insert evil dictator]. That’s weak. Also most people in this country want Medicare for all. Calling Hinklea far leftist may be accurate, but that doesn’t make him a Russian asset, as you’ve claimed.
Meanwhile you’re missing the point. The far left is saying this war is bullshite. The libertarians are saying this war is bullshite. The right isn’t in favor of this war.
But DC-who’s in the military business, as is this entire country, is saying it’s good for business.
If East Ukraine wishes to escape the Nazis in West Ukraine and go to the KGB, more power to them.
No matter, Russia is going to get this land…and the US will make tons of money selling our weapons on the black market instead of sending them to the front lines. Which is what’s going on.

Natural gas storage facilities in Germany are 75.43% full, the German gas infrastructure operator announced on Aug. 13.
EU Commission guidelines suggested EU gas storages should be 75% full by Sep. 1.
According to the announcement – as reported by German broadcaster DW – the commission’s recommendations were exceeded thanks to a reduction in German gas consumption and increased imports from north-western Europe.
The plan calls for German gas storages to be 95% full by Nov. 1, building a buffer against Russia potentially cutting gas supplies to Europe ahead of the winter season.
However, Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is clearly still hoping to use energy blackmail to coerce the EU into renouncing its support for Ukraine.
Besides building up EU gas reserves, the commission has recommended EU member states reduce their gas consumption by at least 15%. If successful, the plan would make the bloc resilient to further Russian energy blackmail.

42 countries called on Russia to withdraw troops from Zaporizhzhia NPP
Sunday, 14 August 2022, 18:20
42 countries have called on Russia to withdraw its troops from the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), stressing that their presence there poses threats to the safe operation of the nuclear plant.
As European Pravda reports, this was mentioned in a statement published on the website of the EU delegation to international organisations in Vienna.
The statement was joined by all EU members and the European Union as a separate signatory, Norway, Great Britain, USA, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Georgia, Moldova, North Macedonia and Turkey.
The countries reiterate that the aggression of the Russian Federation against Ukraine is a gross violation of international law and the UN Charter, and Russia's control over the ZNPP endangers the principles of nuclear safety.
