  1. Time for a bit of pressure on the front. Make the Russian units watching others pull out feel the need to bug out.

    > KYIV – Russia pulled some troops out of southern Ukraine and back into its own territory to try to fend off an escalating incursion by Kyiv's forces, a Ukrainian official said on Tuesday.

    > Ukraine's ongoing surprise attack has triggered scrambling in Moscow where President Vladimir Putin has expressed anger after Kyiv snatched dozens of settlements and huge areas of territory in the Kursk and Belgorod regions of southern Russia.

    > "Russia has relocated some of its units from both Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions of Ukraine's south," Dmytro Lykhoviy, a Ukrainian army spokesman, told POLITICO. The Kremlin initially attacked the Zaporizhzhia and Kherson regions of southern Ukraine in the first days of Putin's full-scale invasion in early 2022.

  3. I don’t pretend to know how this will turn out but it sure seems like the chess game turned 4d and Ukraine is the only one that knows how to play. And I’m not minimizing war with the comparison. It just seems like Ukraine is several steps ahead of the bumbling fools surrounding Poopstain.

  4. I just want a ragtag mercenary army to help me conquer Kaliningrad. Why can’t I be Eric prince
