Russian troops have captured the small settlement of Zaporizhzhia in Ukraine's eastern Donetsk region, Russian state news agency TASS reported on Saturday, citing Russia's Defense Ministry.

Reuters could not independently confirm the battlefield report.

The small village of Zaporizhzhia, which had a prewar population of about 200 people, is located near the strategic city of Pokrovsk, where some of the fiercest battles of the war have been fought over the past several months. Pokrovsk is a crucial transport hub in the east of Ukraine.

The village is distinct from the Ukrainian city of Zaporizhzhia, the regional center and large industrial hub located some 90 miles to the southeast.

You dont have a clue.

Yet, it's you Putin lovers who haven't gotten the clue for the last 3 1/2 years that Putin and you don't stand a chance at taking over Ukraine.

Here's a clue in the form of a question: What real progress has Putin made in the last few years in Ukraine, besides the never-ending claims of Russia advancing and taking more territory and still defending the same 18% they took at the beginning of the invasion?

“Ukrainian soldiers are retreating without battles in some areas.”

They keep retreating, the front lines are collapsing... they keep retreating, the front lines are collapsing... they keep retreating, the front lines are collapsing...they keep retreating, the front lines are collapsing... and finally, Russia victorious ! 12 empty houses taken. So stronk victory.

Given Russia’s tactics for some time, the main goal is attritting Ukraine’s army and equipment.

Conflict wise, Zaporizhzhia is an important village, and we have seen that it has been captured.

If you want support, raise the quality of those you want supported, then make your case.

Meanwhile, we don't care as long as the Globalists lose.

America Sovereign. America First. America Solvent.

A tactic dictated by Ukraine’s resistance.

“Vlad has been eating one town after another”

Russia controls 20% of Ukraine. In 2022, Russia controlled 20%.

I tried to calculate the percentage gained but my calculator kept coming up with ZERO.

One could say that by not losing ground, you're gaining.

Putin is gaining by not losing. And he's gaining 0% all the time.

“The most damning evidence that Ukraine is finished?”

I heard the Russians increased their mobile division after capturing the one donkey left in the village.

Ukraine has flatlined in every sector, “ D” credit rating to demographics. Vlad has accomplished his stated objectives, except for ridding Ukraine of their Neo- Nazi problem….

I grew up a long time ago, I don’t believe in Unicorns or take the Hopium drug….drive on Private. Post war analysis will be stunning.

“Vlad has accomplished his stated objectives,”

Vlad’s goal was to take Kiev in three days!

“except for ridding Ukraine of their Neo- Nazi problem….”


Q: Why does Putin think it makes any sense to call Ukrainian leaders Nazis, especially when President Zelensky is Jewish?

Dr. Fishman: “This propaganda is an attempt to delegitimize Ukraine in the eyes of the Russian public, which considers its war against Nazi Germany its greatest moment, and in eyes of the Western publics who may not know much about Ukraine except that it’s next to Russia.”

Q: But why call them Nazis, aside from that being the worst accusation one can make?

“This propaganda isn’t new. Russia has for years highlighted the activity of a marginal group of Ukrainian ultra-nationalists as a way of trying to stigmatize all of Ukraine. Yes, some members of these ultra-nationalist groups have used Nazi insignia, made Hitler salutes, and used antisemitic rhetoric, but they are politically insignificant and in no way representative of Ukraine. The political parties which the ultra-nationalists support received just over 2 percent of the vote in the 2019 elections. Ukraine is a flawed democracy, but unquestionably a democracy, and in no way a Nazi regime.”

“their Neo- Nazi problem….”

Thanks for bringing up Russia’s nazi problem.


The roots of neo-Nazism in Putin’s Russia
The origins of this relationship date to the late 1990s, when Russia was shaken by a wave of racist violence committed by neo-Nazi skinhead gangs. After Putin’s accession to the presidency in 2000, his regime exploited this development in two ways.

First, it used the neo-Nazi threat to justify the adoption of anti-extremism legislation, a longstanding demand of some Russian liberals. Ultimately, this legislation would be used to prosecute Russian democrats.

Second, the Kremlin launched “managed nationalism”, an attempt to co-opt and mobilise radical nationalist militants, including neo-Nazis, as a counterweight to an emerging anti-Putin coalition of democrats and leftist radicals.

I don't think anybody wants to hear about your mental issues.

That being said. Your endless scribbles are facinating to me and I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

If I had a newsletter, you wouldn't be qualified to join. People with mental issues don't have a place anywhere, except in a mental institution.

Is that 'facinating' enough for you?
