The cost of hitting a target with a Gerran/Shaheed drone is more than that of a single cruise missile.
Source for this?
From what I've seen Shaheds cost $48k-$80k, that's not cruise missile money

Sandboxx on YouTube. Instead of one your have 10 or so for one with smaller charge to make it to target. They have a 5% success rate in Ukraine.

Poktovsk situation still cloudy. Heavy fighting there as Russia fights to take the city.

Key Takeaways
Russian forces continue to advance in central and western Pokrovsk, although the exact contour of the front line in and around the town remains unclear.
The Kremlin continues its multifaceted cognitive warfare effort aimed at influencing US decision makers in Russia’s favor in response to recent US sanctions.
Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) CEO and key Kremlin negotiator Kirill Dmitriev announced on October 24 that he is traveling to the United States to meet with Trump Administration officials.
The Russian Central Bank lowered its key interest rate for the fourth time since June 2025, likely in an attempt to increase capital available for the Russian defense industrial base (DIB) and to maintain the facade of domestic economic stability against the backdrop of new US sanctions and continued unsustainable wartime spending.
Russian forces recently launched a series of long-range strikes with modified glide bombs against Ukrainian cities, underscoring Ukraine’s urgent requirements for long-range air defense systems.
The Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) is reportedly increasing its purchases of domestically produced cruise and ballistic missiles despite Western sanctions that aim to contain Russia’s defense industrial base (DIB) production.
Russian manned aircraft violated NATO airspace for a second time on October 23. Belarusian security officials are supporting Russian cognitive warfare efforts against Poland and Lithuania.
Ukrainian forces advanced near Kupyansk and Lyman. Russian forces advanced near Velykyi Burluk, Siversk, Pokrovsk, Novopavlivka, and Velykomykhailivka.

At least 1 killed, 10 injured in Russian ballistic missile attack on Kyiv
October 25, 2025 4:24 am (Updated: October 25, 2025 9:56 am)
Russia launched an attack on Kyiv overnight on Oct. 25, once again targeting Ukraine's capital with ballistic missiles.
Explosions were heard in Kyiv just before 4 a.m. local time, according to Kyiv Independent reporters on the ground.
At least one person was killed and 10 injured in the attack, according to Tymur Tkachenko, the head of the Kyiv City Military Administration.
The attack came just days after Russia's most recent large-scale attack on Ukrainian cities overnight on Oct. 22. The missile and drone attack on energy infrastructure across Ukraine killed six people and injured at least 44.
Russia has intensified its attacks on energy infrastructure in recent weeks ahead of winter, forcing Ukraine to introduce blackouts. Mayor Vitali Klitschko warned on Oct. 23 that Kyiv is preparing for what could be the most challenging winter since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion.
On Oct. 25, Russia launched nine Iskander-M ballistic missiles from Russia's Rostov and Kursk oblasts, along with 62 Shahed-type attack and decoy drones, according to Ukraine's Air Force.
Air defenses intercepted 50 drones and four missiles, but 12 drones and five missiles struck four locations.
Following the attack, Tkachenko reported that multiple fires had broken out at "several locations on the left bank of the city." The "left bank" refers to the part of Kyiv located east of the Dnipro River.
Kyiv Mayor Klitschko said that firefighters have been deployed to the Darnytskyi and Desnianskyi districts of the city.

US could hit Russia with more sanctions to end Ukraine war, but first wants Europe to increase pressure

WASHINGTON, Oct 25 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's administration has prepared additional sanctions it could use to target key areas of Russia's economy if President Vladimir Putin continues to delay ending Moscow's war in Ukraine, according to a U.S. official and another person familiar with the matter.
U.S. officials have also told European counterparts that they support the EU using frozen Russian assets to buy U.S. weapons for Kyiv, and Washington has held nascent internal conversations about leveraging Russian assets held in the U.S. to support Ukraine's war effort, two U.S. officials said.

One senior U.S. official told Reuters that he would like to see European allies make the next big Russia move, which could be additional sanctions or tariffs. A separate source with knowledge of internal administration dynamics said Trump was likely to hit pause for a few weeks and gauge Russia's reaction to Wednesday's sanctions announcement.

Some of the additional sanctions the U.S. has prepared are geared toward Russia's banking sector and the infrastructure used to get oil to market, said a U.S. official and another person familiar with the matter.
quote:
In announcing the U.S. sanctions, Bessent pushed the EU to follow. Broadly speaking, U.S. officials have criticized EU and NATO countries for not taking more decisive steps to stand up to Russia.
It will be more difficult, though, for the EU to unleash full-blocking sanctions on Lukoil than it is for the U.S., one senior EU official argued, given how heavily entangled Lukoil is with Europe's economy. The oil company owns refineries in Bulgaria and Romania and has a robust retail gas station network throughout the continent.
"I think we need to find a way to disengage...before we can fully sanction," the EU official said.

That also wont get delivered until they are obsolete. Saab can only make about 20 Gripen per year so it will take many years to fill an order that big because they also have to produce 60-75 for their own air force.

He cited Ukrainska Pravda's reporting in what I linked.
He has been a sunshine pumper for Ukraine for a long time, his tune changing is probably pretty indicative of how things are going more than it is him just suddenly trusting Russian telegram messaging

Would have been nice if liberals were as passionate about the Epstein files under Biden as they are now.
Proof of Trump's involvement would have buried him. Someone pro-Biden (or just anti-pedo) would have seen it and released it. We might have President DeSantis now which I would have loved (as long as JD was still VP).
But yes on the frick immigrants part, they have to go back.
