Putin’s no.1 enemy Prigozhin warned Ukraine would storm into Russia & couldn’t be stopped before Vlad killed him

Footage of Prigozhin shows how the slain leader predicted Ukraine's shock offensive.

THE slain chief of the notorious Wagner mercenary group predicted Russia would come under siege from Ukraine before Vlad had him killed.

Warlord Yevgeny Prigozhin died when his plane was blown out of the sky in August 2023, allegedly on Putin's orders.

He led the private Russian military unit that was called in to assist the Kremlin's quest to illegally conquer Ukraine and became increasingly frustrated with how war efforts were organised.

Fed up with the Ministry of Defence, Prigozhin eventually threatened a coup against Moscow - a move that allegedly led to orders to have him assassinated.

Now footage from more than a year ago has resurfaced of Prigozhin speaking out against Russian corruption - and he warned an invasion was coming as a consequence.

He slammed military chiefs for sucking up until they were given top jobs, only to sit around with their feet up while they sent young men to their slaughter.

Napoleon Bonaparte and Adolph Hitler tried that. It didn’t go well

Praying to the memory of the West’s Great Corrupt Hope will not save Biden’s Project Ukraine. You should remember how foolish you and others looked when you bought into the media’s Prigozhin hope porn back then. You look just as foolish buying into more hope porn nonsense today.

This is Ukraine’s last roll of the dice. Pushing their chips all in.

This war is heading to a conclusion.

We should note too that today top US MSM outlets, voices of the deep state, are now blaming the Nordstream explosion on the Ukrainians and Zelensky, who gave the orders. The word is “scapegoat” and like the proverbial goat, he’s about to be sacrificed.

Napoleon and Hitler tried to conquer Russia. Ukraine isn’t trying to conquer Russia. But it is making a mess of things for Putin.

Vlad is the victim of his own ineptness... Invading the Ukraine was a massive error.

It’s causation is very simple... During the Barry O administration, Putin took the Crimea and Obama essentially gifted it to him. Obama and his secretary of state Hillary didn’t have the balls to say ‘no’, and this was after Obama drew that line in Syria which Putin crossed immediately to no consequences. Then Vlad waited for the Biden administration to continue his maniacal quest for infamy. Just because you can invade a country an not be prevented from doing so by a weak and incompetent American administration, doesn’t mean you should. Now the country that didn’t pose a threat to Russia, is actually invading Russia. Way to go Vlad... You self-centered Hitler wannabe.

This is why Trump needs to win in November.

They tried taking all of Russia. The Ukrainians simply want to inflict enough pain to make Russia withdraw from Ukraine.

Hitler and Napoleon were defeated by General Winter, and attacking while insufficiently supplied for the Russian winter. In fact, Napoleon’s successful arrival at Moscow became the proverbial Tar Baby when Moscow was set on fire, burning to the ground and leaving no place for the victorious army to shelter. Fatal given their lack of winter supplies. As you say Ukraine’s goal is NOT the conquest of Russia, but the freedom of Ukraine.

Yeah, but Ukraine isn’t marching long distances to invade Russia. It was the winters that destroyed these armies. Ukraine is tough. They live through it year after year.

The New York Times writes that victory for Putin is now "definitely within reach."

"His [Putin's] latest peace proposal, under which Russia retains the occupied territories and Ukraine is banned from joining NATO, has been rejected by many Western leaders. However, in fact, this is the most realistic scenario for how this war will end," the newspaper writes.

That’s not to mention the grudgingly rosy picture it paints of Russia’s economic outlook:

Nor has the West managed to cut off the sources of Russia’s economic might, despite rounds of sanctions. The economy is growing healthily, and the assets of Russian oligarchs remain safe in the West, even if frozen. Most important, Russian oil is being bought and sold with minimal difficulty around the world as Western leaders can’t seem to decide what they want more: to meaningfully punish Russia or keep things as they are. Tellingly, the U.S. Treasury’s proposal to impose penalties on tankers that help Russian oil evade sanctions has stalled over the White House’s fear that higher gasoline prices won’t play well at the polls in November.

Nappy didn’t plan it out as well, and Adis was brain addled.

But if you take people who have been fighting the muscowites for centuries, they know how to handle Muscowy - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish%E2%80%93Lithuanian_occupation_of_Moscow

however, all of that is moot considering that Ukraine has zero plans to advance that far into Muscowy or even permanently occupy Muscowite territory
