Notice all the weapon systems being sent are defensive in general.....the amount of armament going in is enough to keep Russia hemmed up for weeks.....there is a lot more going on behind the curtain here IRT NATO and Ukraine...the US is making it very clear that we and other NATO and western nations in general are going to provide defensive support for Ukraine.

The irony here is by saying this kind of stuff Putin is literally creating the 5th column he is worried about. Right now there are dozens of generals, and mid level and hell upper level Kremlin folks wondering if Putin was thinking and talking about them when he says this stuff, so much so that they form said column to get rid of Putin to save themselves....

For real. He accuses them of believing they belong to a better society, better race, then says he is going to create a better society.

Think of the sources doing the searching.......It's not rock science but again these folks aren't geologist!
Honestly, that looks like a pretty ---- implementation of a forward COC.
for all you would be bounty hunters out there, it's open season on Russian assets

U.S. Departments of Justice and Treasury Launch Multilateral Russian Oligarch Task Force
Attorney General Merrick B. Garland and Secretary of the Treasury Janet L. Yellen today met virtually with representatives from Australia, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the European Commission, to launch the Russian Elites, Proxies, and Oligarchs (REPO)...

Baby steps, the idea has to be to give Ukraine enough to fend off Putin till he has to back off, and make it clear to Putin that if he wants to go big that the house will cover Zelensky's all in bet.
Also this was just dumb on the tanks part, especially given the shear volume of ATM Ukraine is dealing with....

"COC"? On a weather board all that comes to mind is "center of circulation" and thank God we're still a few months from that dreaded thought ...
And then he unfriended him on facebook and instagram. Take that POTUS!

This is why the Russians are losing, unescorted truck riding around with so many potential threats.....and then they get popped.....this is also why the Russians can not and will not win, they have no answer for these tactics by the Ukrainians....it does not hurt they are totally incompetent.
Command operations center, forward type. Speaking from experience, we were trained to move these in the cover of darkness every 24hrs with forward elements, regardless if advances were made. They don’t sit, nor look as disorganized as Russia’s “modern” implementation.
Speed and maneuver, US Marines dictate operational tempo.
I feel like we've been had, being coached all these years to worry about Russia. They can't even make progress against a bunch of farmers, fertilizer makers, and biolab technicians. Looks like we've definitely been oversold.
Yep this exactly
And yet we seem powerless against them ?

Which is why we never need to go to war with them in any fashion that involves American lives. We dont fight wars to win anymore. Ive said it multiple times; I fought the majority of my good adult years with nothing to show for it in return. Our country wont even secure our own @#$% border! We have the power to defeat Russia and China in our own country but the people who make the rules are making too much money sleeping in the same bed with them.And yet we seem powerless against them ?
We both posses a nuclear arsenal capable of sustaining fallout dendrites for decades. Earth as we know it would become largely uninhabitable. I think that’s the pause and reservation in mature fashion, atleast by the US.
They are a paper tiger with 6000 nukes. I think we are playing wise. Walk close to the line.
They know that too, though. Fortunately, killing yourself and all of your people is a common thing even crazy, evil Russians want to avoid.

It’s never been there military thats scary. It’s more so there hypersonic missile capabilities and 6000 nukes. Even though there military capabilities are not great. Russia actually leads the world with hypersonic missiles and nukes

There many news stories about Russias hypersonic missiles. I think it’s fairly legit they supposed to be hard to intercept.

I agree. It's also legit that my foot is gonna stink when I step in dog sh** but that's not what we're talking about. You, I, we have no idea who has the best or most weapons. No idea.
For those who are interested, there is a (very long) series of blog posts highlighting a theoretical WWIII between US/NATO and the USSR that takes place in 1987 (started by the USSR invading West Germany). It is very well written by a very knowledgeable war-gamer. Spoiler alert: limited nuclear strikes (2 by each side) were used in the first 3 weeks of the war.
It is quite a read if you are into military planning and the politics at the height of the Cold War. There are definitely some parallels between what is happening now and what could have happened then.
