Would you like to know how Russia managed to adapt to its war in Ukraine and even expand the war machine? Thanks to the @CNA_org research project, my new report is answering this question https://t.co/S7p48s0cF5 1/9

Reporter to Mamdani: You referred to Trump as despot… Trump: I've been called much worse than a despot. So it's not that insulting.

For those tweeting at me about POTUS - I remain unconvinced he’s seen it, let alone approved it. You have @SecArmy dispatched to Kyiv. Movement on Graham-Blumenthal sanctions bill. Approval of over $100m of patriot parts announced. Feels very incongruent.

Today, I learned that a Russian technocrat is an official with at least one of the following: 1) a Western degree 2) multinational corporate experience 3) an independent think tank background. I realized that I tick all three boxes, but I still can't see Moscow out of my window.

Roman Kostenko says the number of soldiers who have gone AWOL or deserted will soon be equal to the number of soldiers in the army and that most of them go AWOL from the training centers. Ihor Lutsenko estimates that 95% of AWOL cases are from soldiers who were just mobilized

💥Viktor Orbán’s media doxxed 200,000 opposition supporters by publishing stolen personal data, including names & addresses – unprecedented in Hungarian politics. Opposition leader Péter Magyar reacted at a rally in Győr, saying they are the majority — and they’re not afraid.

Since there is a lack of heavy Rus drones at the front, one company is now selling large frames made from plywood for attaching 2 to 4 10-inch FPV drones: "Vobla", "Tyoschya" (Mother-in Law) and "Driada". DIY is the way to go now if Rus soldiers want an heavy drone.
