Putin LARP'd as a chessmaster so hard that he turned his country into a petty tributary client of the Chinese empire.
Who was playing whom? That's my question. But now, I think Putin was the one got played.

OTOH, if China really wants Taiwan, getting the US to send assets to Ukraine and deplete our capability, maybe not. In one fell swoop, they could conceivably remove Russia and the US as military powers? IDK.

That segment of the current Russian population is motivated to do this, assuming they can find a way to get out of Russia safely with their family. That's not so easy these days.

When you won't let the Pope (whatever you happen to think of him) evac civilians, it's pretty clear you're really using them as leverage and don't actually GAF what happens to them. Not that most had any doubt.

I hate it when I'm right about things I don't want to be right about. Still hope I'm not right. Please be wrong.

Why are they so clean in a trench?

Looks like a new trench and they just got there. No combat yet. It's also not in an area that's seen a bunch of rain.

Oh, I know it's not a panacea for Russia's issues and that it does nothing to guarantee for them. It does, however, introduce additional uncertainties and concerns along with the great likelihood of additional destruction and death. Even if it does nothing to bring about Russian victory, expansion of the war is not a good thing.

Hmm, on one hand I can see the major value in further weakening Russia by taking their brightest minds. On the other hand, does this open the door wider for espionage or even sabotage?

She's a cosplay tictok girl from Russia. Her whole channel is full of military and air soft pics. (she's cute), but this is fake news. It's not a mom and daughter team fighting for Ukraine.
Hillary paid for warrant to spy on Trump.

At this point, you can bet anyone coming in would be thoroughly vetted by the Russians and probably a spy.

Plus there are a lot of things that require smart people that have nothing to do with national security. Put them to work in one of those fields until you're absolutely certain.

This is a real concern. Russia cannot be allowed to encircle Ukrainian troops. If they cut them off and bleed/starve them to death, it's going to get very ugly. My hope is that Ukraine continues to pull their cede-and-counter strategy and never get encircled.
