Also to go with this, American Intel was said to believed something was wrong with Putin mentally. I think it was Marco Rubio who posted it. I was just throwing out what is a crazy scenario that a man with his back against the wall might enact.

Makes you wonder what kind of controls the Russian government has on Putin. Can he do whatever the hell he wants? Or is there someone who can be like nah Vladdy, not cool can't do that.

Not much he and his cronies probably control it all. They rig the elections and he poisons his competition. I don't think his cronies are as aggressive as him though. But who knows.
 
I don't recall seeing any footage from such drones the first couple of days but this is at least the second such clip I've seen today. Has Turkey supplied them with these since the start of the war?

Two of the last aircraft to get into Ukraine's main airport before it shut down were two Turkish C-130's......wonder what was in them :)

Its probably somewhere in between, I think Putin has iron fist control over his inner circle but there is probably elements in other places especially military that are probably more level headed and not drinking the Putin kool aid. Which is why I dont fear nukes etc so much as I think there are people around that would be like "nah not gonna blow up the world to save your ego".

Putin probably as close as he has ever been to having himself disposed in a coup.....if he does not turn this around soon or try to escalate it I think someone will chop the head off the snake.
 
Probably seeing more drone action as Russians AA capabilities are taken out and or they ae getting resupplied with enough to warrant risking them, There is probably a lot of military equipment coming in from Romania and Poland that we are not hearing about.

Russia is about to do a hard press

They have been trying that for days, there are probably at least 100k soldiers and armed citizens in Kyiv by now, with positions in all the main buildings, subways, they dug trenches and set armor traps everywhere.....any Russian armor that gets into Kyiv is going to die....they would literally have to to go building by building with conscripts who don't wanna be there against people literally fighting for the homes. The Russians do not have the kind of infantry they need to pull it off, and the losses to that infantry would be just ridiculous. They are better off encircling it and then bombing and shelling the city until the loss of life forces them to surrender the city, but the political cost of such a move would be great and maybe even enough to force NATO's hand.
 
NATO AWACS almost on station near the Ukrainian border, imagine this is the overnight shift and a pretty clear look at the sky’s almost to Kyiv.
