The reality is very few people in the world can answer that question and they have reasons to lie about it.

I think the best we can deduce is Russia is having a harder time than they expected but likely have a lot more arrows in the quiver and it is going to get more and more ugly.





That's exactly how I feel but who knows...

Here's a guy filming Russian tanks with his phone and then a tank shoots his building and narrowly misses him.

Both of those sound quite inaccurate tbh

I think Obtuse1 is mostly correct but that is from a military standpoint.

Doesn’t factor the economic issues, public pressure, behind the scenes pressure from oligarchs and people in the government who clearly disagree with the invasion, etc

But those things are even harder to gauge.

However it is clear our Intel has very good sources, either in the Russian government or close to it. Also Rubio is definitely leaking everything he wants.

I can't remember, does Denver have 85 octane or is that just further west?


Can confirm, we do have 85 octane. It's a holdover from the carburetor days I believe. Todays engines should handle the knocking issues a lot better at altitude.

He is on the Intelligence and Foreign Relation committees. He has his motivations and biases but he clearly gets information that not all of us are privy to.

US intel is clearly extremely deep into Russian mil and the Kremlin. They’ve had this one nailed for months.

It is. The "thinner" air impacts a carburated car's stoichiometric air-to-fuel ratio causing it to run rich. Modern fuel-injected cars can keep the correct ratio even in less dense air.

I knew I had seen 85 in Montana and Idaho just couldn't remember if they had it in Colardo or not.

I would imagine it’s really not all that difficult to turn someone who is witness to a maniacal authoritarian regime. I be a lot of people in the kremlin came of age towards the end of the Cold War and were looking forward to a new age of prosperity only to see Putin do his best to keep his country down because he’s such a narcissist.

Damn hope this is fake news but Twitter now saying Kherson has fallen to the Russians

Paul Popovici ????@Pauliniooooo

The city of @Kherson (southwest) is officially occupied by the @Russian army. You can see on the webcam images the military cars with "Z" parked in the center of the city.

If it is a trap, it has been a poor one. When random arse farmers are dragging your shite back to the barn with their tractors, you may have issues.


What if it has a timed bomb or is set to release a neurotoxin? What kind of trap did you think I was talking about?

That happened quick. They just began the assault of Kherson this morning. It’s clear that the Russian army in south has their shite together.

Now we wait to see if this vaunted Ukrainian resistance materializes.

Note to civilians: looking out a building window at armor will give the impression at a distance that you are a combatant and they will (if the ROE allows) do what they can to make you have a bad day

If they are giving up functional BMPs, T72s, and MLRS systems to blow up farmer Bawaslav and his wife they either have more money than sense, or they are way fricked.
