The US just cut off usaid's support of power grid restoration in ukraine, expect Russia to take full advantage....and a lot of cold ukranians. But zelensky is popular I promise.

In December, even with no industry working or using power, the country still had 40% blackouts. Now without the US repairing them, expect Russia to intensify the attacks.

No power, no pumping of water, no clearing of sewage. Nice job cargo pants.

Let's set the record straight, once and for all. The Russian government, from Putin to Lavrov to Medvedev and Gerasimov never said Kiev in 3 days or 3 weeks or 3 years. The Russian government has been extremely careful to never put a timeframe on any part of the SMO.


Putin made it clear back in 2022 that the operation was taking longer than expected. That is clear. You can say he never gave a timeline, but that still doesn’t mean it’s on schedule or that it was going as expected.

KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged Wednesday that his “special military operation” in Ukraine is taking longer than expected but said it has succeeded in seizing new territory and added that his country’s nuclear weapons are deterring escalation of the conflict.

Sorry come again? So you admit that at least 30 pages of this thread is dedicated to the tired joke of “Muh 3 day SMO”. Which was never true to begin with? This echo chamber is becoming the ultimate self own with all the original players contradicting and downright rage quitting when the facts are presented. We need a list of all you bullshitters who participated and then quit when it got too hot.

Print the cups boys.

Sorry, but we ve been reading for over two years that the war is over, and Russia is breaking through, That hadn’t happened.

Now people are making excuses for Russia’s lack of success and saying that this was the plan all along when we know that that’s not the case. Even Putin said the war was taking longer than expected.

As for the three days, I don’t really believe Russia ever thought they’d finish it in three days or even three weejjs, but three months? Yes, I think Russian planners believed it would be a done deal by then. Just my opinion.

What is your opinion? Do you disagree with Putin? Do you think Russia planned to be in a major war with Ukraine in 2025? I do not.

I believe Russia is winning, that’s clear, but I also believe that it is at a far greater cost that ever expected and if Putin could do a do over he would.

A million people had to die so you could pretend to be brave on the internet. That's all history is going to remember you fools for.

Zelensky begged you over and over to come volunteer to fight Russians but you ran away instead. Kinda says it all doesn't it? Forgive me for not taking your threats very seriously when you're scared of people who can only fight with donkeys and shovels.

Zelensky needs to resign next week. He has become the problem. That is obvious now.

My opinion is Russia sucks, but Ukraine was never going to win this war. That’s all that matters. Russia taking Ukraine is not a threat to us. Russia is a regional power threatening some of its immediate neighbors,

My question to you is why weren’t you this involved in 2014 when Obama put a couple sanctions on them for invading Crimea. They still held the Winter Olympics that year. I mean c’’mon. Very disingenuous on your part but hey virtue signal all you want it’s 2025 now.

The EU is spending more money on Russian fossil fuels than on financial aid to Ukraine, a report marking the third anniversary of the invasion has found.

EU member states bought €21.9bn (£18.1bn) of Russian oil and gas in the third year of the war, according to estimates from the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (Crea), despite the efforts under way to kick the continent’s addiction to the fuels that fund Vladimir Putin’s war chest.

The amount is one-sixth greater than the €18.7bn the EU allocated to Ukraine in financial aid in 2024, according to a tracker from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy (IfW Kiel).

I did not. I’m smdh over the fact this what the GOP nominated.

I’ve made it no secret I think MAGA is full of retards for letting Trump run away from debates during the GOP primary because this is what we get. Another geriatric, except this one is worse because he can’t deal with any adversity. He melts down when heads of state, who don’t give a frick about him or his base, call him out on his bullshite to his face. He needs Vance to come to the rescue.

There is a reason why half the cabinet was present in the Oval Office after what happened with the Macron presser.

It was obvious the GOP fricked up bigly when he got trounced in a debate with fricking Kamala, and we’re all gonna pay for it.

I’d care more if anything mattered, but it doesn’t. Life is a circus and you are the clowns.
