When I joined the CIA in September of 1985 it was my first exposure to classified information. Initially, I believed that the classification system was designed to prevent the public from knowing the “real truth” about what was happening in the world. In the months that followed I discovered that Top Secret, Special Compartmented Intelligence, appeared routinely on the front pages of the Washington Post and the New York Times.
What was the difference between leaked intelligence and the intel reports that did not appear in the press? It boiled down to something pretty simple — if there was disagreement over a particular policy, such as placing nuclear missiles in Europe, that intelligence leaked. Conversely, if there was consensus over a policy or program that information rarely leaked.
I raise this because of the spate of articles now appearing in the establishment media that are painting a dire, gloomy picture of Ukraine’s much ballyhooed counter offensive. That is not a coincidence nor is it the result of intrepid journalism. Support for Ukraine in Washington is starting to crumble. While the Austin, Milley, Blinken and Nuland crowd continue to insist that victory is just around the corner (all we need is more cow bell), others at the Pentagon, the CIA, the DNI and DIA see the writing on the wall spelling out a message of looming disaster.
The Washington Post ran this piece earlier this week:
Ukraine running out of options to retake significant territory. (The Washington Post — pay wall).
"Ukraine is running out of options in its counteroffensive against Russian forces, as Kiev’s time-window to gain advances is closing, the Washington Post has reported.
In an article on Sunday, the U.S. daily has claimed that Ukraine’s counteroffensive, which was launched in early June and was initially expected to see Kiev taking back significant territory, currently “shows signs of stalling.”
“Kiev’s advances remain isolated to a handful of villages, Russian troops are pushing forward in the north and a plan to train Ukrainian pilots on U.S.-made F-16s is delayed,” wrote the U.S. newspaper.

PLEASE TAKE ME OFF ALL OF YOUR PING LISTs !!!!!

Ukraine has never been winning. Its all a cover up by the Cabal.
It's bribery.
If the Washington Post and New York Tiems 'play it nice' with the goons and thugs in the democrat party (YES the CIA is one of the Democrats' butt boy dependents) they get the best leaks and keep their corrupt little newspapers looking relevant.
Without illegal news feeds/leaks their 'reporters' would have NOTHING to say or investigate. Of course the DOJ doesn't care if classified information is leaked WHEN IT'S LEAKED TO BENEFIT THE DEMOCRAT PARTY.
When the coin of the realm is insider information bribes come in the form of classified information. (These two papers are the same two that clutch their pearls and go breathless at the mere thought of Trump leaking one classified thought)
Ministry of truth - liars - State Propaganda outlet...the MSM has no shame because the people working in thee papers are not journalists in the old style. They're the clueless sons and daughters of 'elties' who didn't earn their jobs... they fit the pattern of Kolor, Kink and Kin (rich daddy legacy)
Bwahahahaha! Bunch of BS and another load of anti-Ukraine bull from Larry (Idiot) Johnson.
Johnson is a pro-Russian Putin fan-boy & propagandist. He an “all-in” Kremlin Kool-Aid drinker. A member of the disinformation clan and Putin-kissing 3-Amigo’s “Clayton Morris, Larry C Johnson, and Scott Ritter”, who are well known as the authors of inventing and propagating Kiev “False Flag” narratives. They are America’s news-room go-to usual suspects if you want a Ukraine hit-piece full of lies, rumor, disinformation and bogus reporting which they construct from Russian state news feed and European Marxist pro-separatist journo’s you’ll find in Russian occupied eastern Ukraine wearing Che Guevara t-shirts and looking like actors out of the latest Oliver Stone “freedom fighter” documentary! LOL! These liars are aligned with America’s top Putin fan-boy... retired Col Douglas MacGregor! All these idiots push their pretentious and subjective analysis from a narrative which they themselves authored from DAY ONE of Putin’s invasion for the Conquest of Ukraine! aka: Special 3-day Military Operation. It’s nothing but bash Ukraine... prop up Putin! Hilarious BS!
After 540+ days Putin marches on with his “Special 3-Day Military Operation” no longer looking for Nazi’s to kill, but looking to save his own ass! LOL!!
Putin has yet to find and kill his elusive NAZI’s in Ukraine... but Putin did indeed find and kill his good friend and NAZI Wagner chief, Yevgeny Prigozhin. Also killed was Hitler fan-boy, NAZI zealot and Wagner founder Dmitry Utkin... as well as Wagner logistics mastermind and NAZI traveler Valery Chekalov with 4 other Wagner NAZI lieutenants. Most all Wagner mercenaries are blood-lust butchers. They mentor their spiritual leader Adolf Hitler by proudly wearing the “Wagner” name... as well as sporting the swastika, SS death’s skull and SS rune symbols tattooed on their chests, arms and backs!
Yes indeed... Putin finally killed his NAZI’s by shooting Prigozhin’s plane down on August 23, 2023 over Russia. Oh the irony!
Go ahead... keep believing these conspiracy clowns and psycho’s that have been 100% dead wrong in their assertions, postulates and predictions. I get a laugh reading their fantasy BS and seeing the eggs dripping off their faces EVERY TIME they are left holding their limp dicks. But somehow you suckers keep buying into their “Putin the Liberator” comedy shtick.
