Heart problems: meaning he doesn’t have one anymore, having been blown out a large exit wound in his back.

“Russian defence minister Sergei Shoigu vanishes ‘with heart problems’ as strains appear in his relationship with Putin over Ukraine war and his daughter poses in Ukraine colours”

complete hogwash: clearly Shoigu simply wanted to spend more time with his family ...

“Putin: Russia will only accept rubles for gas deliveries to EU. Vladimir Putin said that “unfriendly countries” must pay for Russian energy in rubles & ordered the changes to be implemented within a week.”

if true, doesn’t make a lot of sense to me since rubles are worth about as much as monopoly money ... what would putin do with those rubles anyway, since they aren’t worth anything?

“Just more proof the USSR never really left.”

Same guys at the same desks in the KGB, with a new sign over the door.

They did have a chance for a while, but the lack of honest institutions to rein in the thieves, eventually led to the best thieves in the security services taking most everything, including power. 500 people own half the wealth of Russia.

“The KP report of 9861 KIA probably about right.”

I wonder if that number includes those from the LPR and DPR?

To pay in rubles, gas customers need to first buy some rubles. All that ruble buying in the foreign exchange market drives up the price of the ruble, so that Russian citizens don’t feel effects caused by a crashing currency (inflation).

How do you print this on a milk carton? The milk would curdle.

Carlson is not only wrong, he can’t get his head far enough up Putin’s butt hole. He either has some serious confirmation bias, or else he has a pathological need to be contrarian, no matter the subject.

IMO, Tucker Carlson is a smarmy, self-indulgent know-it-all - totally convinced of his own infallability, and without the humility to admit when he’s wrong.

I understand doubting much of anything the MSM or DC beltway crowd has to say; but OTOH, attempting to paint Putin as a saint and Zelenski as a devil - IOW, making all things B&W (Ukraine is full of “Nazis” etc, Putin is an “anti-globalist” white knight, etc.) is just as much a sketchy, biased and over-simplified narrative.

Did I miss it? I opened the article and did not see any pictures of his daughter in Ukraine colors. The headline says she “was seen” ..... I guess that’s enough to believe its true, right?

The British have always been the best at deception and misinformation. Nothing better to accomplish a wartime goal that to turn the enemy leader against is own underlings.

Yup.
Especially the British tabloids on war. They lie and make up stuff all the time.

That number of Russian dead will jump dramatically with their supply lines badly overstretched. Putin’s hordes will be the Donner Party of armies if this keeps up.

“Russia must be humiliated, limited, shattered, divided and destroyed”

That’d be a good start.
