More than a month has passed since Russias invasion and the Ukrainian Army is now on the offensive in the Kherson region.
An attack on the Russian-held city of Kherson is expected within a week.

Bioweapons labs in Ukraine, Zelenskyy shutting down media in Ukraine critical of him by painting them all with a broad brush of being pro-Russian, he beimg an autocrat in this and other ways, Soros, the WEF, Biden supporting him, Ukraine being Hunters slush fund, 10% going to the big guy, etc, arent consistent with real American values.
2) Liberaltarians, who'd much rather hear Reagan say “Mr. Gorbachev! This wall is none of our business.”
3) Thoroughly demoralized conservatives, who instinctively side with the enemies of America just to stick it to what they see as The Man.
The people who believe the massive amount of misinformation coming from both sides can be categorized in just one group... Easily manipulated gullible fools. Unfortunately, they do not always look stupid, so you have to judge them by what they say and in this forum what they write. Many have recently transitioned from covid vax and mask proponents to arm chair warriors.
Ukraine no longer has a navy. They learned a lot of lessons in 2014. One was if it flies it dies.
They’re teaching the Russians that now.
The 25% number for wheat production refers to exports. Russia and Ukraine represent only 0.9% of total worldwide wheat production, a number which we will likely makeup—not years from now—but this year, due to market conditions encouraging the planting of millions of tons more wheat in the USA and other countries that will be ready by summer.
The media and Biden himself seems to be speaking of the dangers for Africa, on the grounds that it is allegedly harder for them to get wheat from other countries with Russia and Ukraine not producing wheat.
Thanks GPH.
Who knows... it's been a month and the massive amount of misinformation circulating has made it impossible to know what is actually going on in a strategic sense. The Russians typically fight wars of attrition, they are not over in a month, just starting. I suspect their primary objective was regime change, so we will be able to judge their success or failure based on that. The west's goal is to prop up this corrupt regime and keep them in power no matter what the cost. So we will be able to judge our own “success” based on that as well. Everything else is mostly misinformation at this point.
The Russians MUST take Kherson and Odesa, in order to seal off the Dnieber river basin and create an East Ukraine buffer puppet state. Kiev means nothing.
Yep. India is getting a 20% coupon to buy Russian oil with rubles. But NO ONE is giving any African nations coupons to buy wheat in any currency.
What is the explosive capacity of the Turkish Bayraktar drone ordinance?
They have to take the cities though. They have to have the road junctions, the rail yards, and the airports to control the country. Not to mention all the media outlets, factories, warehouses, etc. If they don't take the cities they are just some guys in the woods with guns.
They blew them all up, just build new ones outside the city
A giant Sunflower on Pooties chest would be the icing on the cake
;>)
The same way Briben is really just a resident and someone else is pulling all the strings, that's all any of the assclowns below in the order of succession would be.
The last real President was Trump. He's probably the last real President we'll ever see since Democrats have shown they can steal elections and rule with impunity.
Briben and everyone else below are nothing more than placeholders for someone else who's far more powerful.
Interesting and thank you for this clarification. That really helps me understand the circumstances with the wheat exports.
Hey you made the leap- I just filled in the blanks. You cannot have it both ways. No one is fooling anyone - if Biden kicks, the reality is one of those will take his place - depending on how far down the kicking goes.
The MSM and our government made this all possible. They repeatedly lied to the American people about important issues. At first, it seemed like bias, but then it became much worse than a liberal slant. The "Russian collusion" plot was the straw that broke the camel's back, and "alternative" sources were ready and waiting. Many of them are foreign controlled, mostly Russian and Chinese. Go figure.
I noted this back when the Q-nuts were spreading the most ridiculous crap imaginable, and people were eating it up.
Kherson video right now:

For some reason, people on every side seem thing think that farming is 100% fungible. It isn’t.
Growing up, we were among the last to stop planting oats in my area. Most of the oats were for my Grandpa, who had planted oats all his life and didn’t want to stop. But we did stop because there was no place to sell them within a few hours drive.
The lack of access to wheat from Ukraine and Russia will mean less bread products in the US, just like the various lock downs in China have led to some processed food being gone from North American shelves.
This was deliberate, and to be honest the Republicans are to blame. Free trade meant that what we used to grow and pack here was sent to countries overseas, and the ability to do it here died.
And I don’t even want to talk about fertilizer. We (The US) shipped ammonia and nitrate plants bolt by bolt to Russia and China over the years, and now acted shocked we will be losing 20% of our yield because they are not willing to ship to us.
But Washington is banning internal combustion engines, so no more apples.
There are going to be a lot of angry, hungry people in the fall.
The Russian source for that story showed a video of the supposed bunker. It looked like nobody had been in it for years. Highly unlikely it was a command post for anything.
