Ukraine survived the first week with minimual loss. Russian blitzkreig failed [View all]

Russian soldiers are pulling a "world war 1" by surrendering under low morale. Logistics have failed. Russian soldiers are ill-trained, ill-equipped, were lied to, conscripted into the military, and are committing self-sabotage.

Oligarchs have little of their money left. Yachts are being tracked, property is being seized.

Ukraine's president is fighting with soldiers and the people showing what he is made of. Ukraine is offering $15K in crypto to Russians that surrender without a fight to go home.

EU is about to, or already has, admitted Ukraine into the EU, releasing European hands to help Ukraine.

Ruble is in the toilet, economy has felt the 5th worst decline in human history.

Ukraine destroyed a massive convoy. Russian ships have no port to go to. Turkey shut down Gallipoli to them.

Putin overplayed his hand and failed. He will go down in history like Hitler and Mussolini.

I believe a French Revolution style uprising will happen against the oligarchs and Putin will get the same treatment Ceaususcu and his dullard wife got.

Imperialism and Fascism has failed again. Ukraine is antifa personified.

On the American front, Trump will be economically destroyed by this. Apologists like Wendy Rogers will get marginalized, and mouthpieces like Carlson have been exposed.

Putin fought the wrong style war against the wrong country at the wrong time.
