This was the position Vindman was offered twice

It’s a matter of time before Zelenskyy steps down, I just don’t see him staying in his position. Everyone he’s brought in with him into the junta seems to have been removed. He is isolated, weak. Can we start a pool to see how long before he’s gone, one way or another?

A distraction and effort to buy more time.

You don’t dismiss a Defense Minister who’s winning a war.

That’s a shame. Recent “polls” show that most “Americans” really liked Oleksii and thought he was a pretty nice guy.

Meanwhile THIS is what EU is celebrating in Ukraine. While hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians are dying at NATO's behest, they get free LED light-bulbs (probably made in China) from Queen Van der Leyen.

I had to check and confirm this is true (which it is). Its absolutely incredible what a clown-world Western leadership is.

Sure is a lot of turmoil there. How many high level leaders have been gone. And the Ukes just raided the home of Zelenisky’s main benefactor, billionaire Igor Kolomoyskyi.

The end result of all this is Zelensky.

Zelensky is worried some of his subordinates may be plotting against him.

Zelensky has other talents besides politics.

“I have not had any conversations about my resignation from this position,” he reportedly said.

None of this sounds or looks good. Either they need a replacement because the strategy isn't working, or a military coup might be imminent.

Well, as head of Ukraine’s military intelligence agency, Kyrylo Budanov would have large responsibilities for Ukraine’s propaganda efforts. Those efforts have been VERY effective (e.g., you can’t open Free Republic without being overwhelmed with their propaganda) so I can see why he might be a good candidate for promotion.
