This morning USA time Ukraine attempted to break through Z line in Xerson with 2 mechanized battalions. The attack was repelled with Z claiming 15 Uke tanks and 20 Uke armored vehicles destroyed and heavy Uke losses.

And the U.S. only gave them the shorter range missiles of about 50 miles. Imagine " taking the gloves off"(quote the Putin Boys) & giving Ukraine the 200-300 miles range.

If you're going to troll, would you at least have the decency to link to your troll sources? It's just annoying, otherwise.

A Putin fanboy that is donating $20 mil a month in the form of some of the most advanced and high speed communication abilities in the world to the army that is fighting Putin? What single other individual has contributed more to the war effort than Musk?

My sauces are randos on twitter just like everybody else. Nobody really knows WTF is going on which is what is so fascinating and perplexing about this war

Elon needs to just shut his mouth sometimes. I was glad he wanted to buy Twitter so they couldn’t basically ban anyone who wasn’t a liberal but he comes off as a little bitch with some of his comments. I’m fine with him wanting someone to pick up the tab for Starlink but I’m not fine with it feeling like he’s a Putin fanboy.

The man floated a plan, a bad plan.
But he has helped Ukraine.
I’d let him slide.

Elon Musk abruptly reversed himself on Saturday by saying that his company would continue to fund the operation of the Starlink internet service in Ukraine, where it has become a digital lifeline for soldiers and civilians. "The hell with it," he said.

Thank you, Mr. Musk, for reconsidering. It is vital that we all unite to stop the Russian menace for good.

Your words and deeds carry more weight than you might think. Thanks for understanding the effect your judgment will have on this war.

The man still deserves to be paid just like all the other contractors making a killing off this war.

I agree. He gets PR that's probably worth the money lost if he's a benefactor, though.

Yeah I do. But are we paying for the Ukrainian HIMARS or not?


Yes but we have 300 billion USD worth of Russian assets to pay ourselves back with. So in the long run this war is going to be budget neutral.

The Russian army was arguably punched out and crippled in place by the time the HIMARS showed up. The HIMARS are just putting it out if it’s misery.

If the RU military is crippled without supplies, why did the Ukraine attacks today after massive buildups and while heavily outnumbering the RU fail?

Honestly, the only report I've seen of a UKR offensive is from BKR. The rest of twitter either isn't talking about or having mixed reports of Russian desertion or UKR getting hit back. I did see one tweet with claimed UKR destroyed equipment, but I usually don't post operational tweets unless I see multiple sources reporting the same thing due to fog of war, which the fog looks thick thick in this case.

In the Belgorod region, an unknown person opened fire on the territory of one of the military units. According to preliminary data, there are dead and wounded. The details are being clarified.

Early info so take with a grain of salt


Supposedly 11 dead and 15 injured in an insider attack by “ex-Soviet Nation” volunteers.

Nitter allows you to read twitter without registering. It's the same content.

A fake offensive is always unsuccessful. It would be very Russian to make this up to score fake propaganda points.
