Serhiy Rud has led the president's security detail since 2019.

...

The two colonels in the state guard who were detained on Tuesday are suspected of belonging to a network of agents run by Russia's FSB security service.

Mr Zelensky has spoken of repeated Russian plots to assassinate him, but the latest revelations involved his own entourage and also targeted military intelligence chief Kyrylo Budanov and the head of the SBU state security service, Vasyl Malyuk.

Zelensky better grow eyes in the back of his head so he can see the knife coming when NATO stabs him in the back. If Zelensky’s days are numbered it will come from his allies or his people. I don't think the Russians want to get rid of him yet.

Hunter was not getting the 10% for the Big Guy, so he hired Boris Badanov and Natasha Fatale to do their thing.

He thought about it, but then realized it would have been no small feet.

What spelled trouble was that the head wasn’t armed to the teeth.
