So why are Russians screaming and shrieking in every video now that Ukrainian cruise missiles and massive swarms of drones are finally flying back toward their cities? Weren't they the ones who spent decades happily consuming kilotons of the Kremlin's warmongering propaganda in everything from the daily news to films, TV series, and even cartoons? Weren't they the ones who enthusiastically echoed their permanent regime's slogans of "We can do it again!!!" and spent generations indulging in fantasies of a glorious war against the "decadent gay West," provided they could stay comfortably on their couches, consuming triumphant war reports and the sound of military marches on television? Weren't they the ones dreaming of putting those "stupid khokhol swines" in their place, cheering with delight when Ukrainians were "punished" for their pro-Western democratic revolution through the criminal seizure of Crimea and the unleashing of the bloody war in Donbas? Weren't they the ones who for years swallowed the revanchist pseudo-historical ravings of their KGB bio-robot in the Kremlin, shouting "On to Washington!!" and "On to Berlin!!" while dressing their own little children in military uniforms and putting them into toy tanks and cardboard missiles? Weren't they the ones who erupted in euphoria at the launch of the "Kyiv in three days" operation, only to then flock by the hundreds of thousands and millions to kill Ukrainians as mercenaries for peanuts and to work for Russia's military-industrial complex, counting their blood-soaked profits? Weren't they the ones who descended into complete moral savagery as a people and as a country, watching with their own eyes as horrific war crimes against Ukraine and Ukrainians were committed every single day, from torture and beheadings to the destruction of entire cities and nighttime missile strikes that brought apartment buildings down on top of the people inside? Weren't they the ones who celebrated every mass killing of Ukrainians on social media, gleefully fantasizing about "leaving Europe without gas" and "freezing the khokhols in the dark this winter"? Weren't they the very same people who loudly applauded and shouted "THANK YOU!!!" to the Wagner mercenaries in Rostov-on-Don three years ago? Aren't they still happily consuming nonstop propaganda about the "Kyiv junta," "Ukrainian Nazis," and the "former so-called Ukraine," while listening to state propagandist Solovyov and Putin's officials calling for Odesa, Kyiv, Kharkiv, and Lviv to be wiped off the face of the earth with nuclear weapons because they refused to submit and fought back? So what is it? Do Russians no longer enjoy the "sacred war" now that the time has come to answer for that entire orgy of hatred, chauvinism, revanchism, militarism, the cult of death, totalitarianism, and the cynical exploitation of the memory of World War II to justify new wars of conquest? Now the Ukraine they despised so deeply and looked down upon as inherently inferior -- has survived this war, rallied the support of the free world, armed itself to the teeth, and is now systematically breaking the very backbone of their inhuman war machine.

I got just one question for this video: for the sake of fucking WHAT did this three-men crew of this Russian T-90M evaporate in a second? So that Ukraine would possibly abandon a scorched wood line 5,000 kilometres from their home that would only change hands again the day after? So that Russian Z-channels could present this as the elimination of a Ukrainian Leopard 2 and then of an Israeli Merkava 4? So that Putin spends another day fellating his wretched ego and not admitting the obvious failure of his 600-day “special military operation,” the end goal of which even Putin himself struggles to explain? I wanna know.

Meanwhile in Ukraine's Mykolaiv: they are reopening McDonalds. There’s really nothing to laugh about here. For this war-weary city that has spent four years living just 60 km from the front line, under shelling and strikes, a McDonald’s open again is a giant piece of normal life returning to its people. Especially for kids.

Russia, with its missile attacks, destroyed last night the unique National Chornobyl Museum in Kyiv’s Podil… look at the precious heritage of our history the Kremlin is waging war against, because fighting the Ukrainian army is proving far more difficult for it. The museum housed more than 22,000 exhibits related to the 1986 nuclear disaster.

The center of Bakhmut today, three years after the end of the bloody battle for these ruins, the Verdun of our era. Just a few years ago, this was a well-kept and thriving Ukrainian city of 70,000, famous for its fountains, its long traditions of producing famous local salt and sparkling wine. It had the Atlantic Hotel, widely known across Donbas. It had good cafes, sushi bars, restaurants, cozy flower-lined alleys. Now, there's nothing but death, ruins, emptiness, and time that has stopped here forever. Now this is the "Russian world," and of course, there will never be any life here again.

Here's what I would recommend, if anyone asked me: Laura Loomer should come to Ukraine herself. No press tours, no escorts from Ukrainian officials or politicians, no guides. Frankly, she wouldn't even need a translator. She should come as a private citizen, anonymously, and simply see Ukraine for herself. Anything, anywhere -- any large city, small town, or village. Visit Lviv. Spend a sleepless night on the floor of a Kyiv metro station during Russian missile attacks. See how Kharkiv lives under the constant threat of Russian glide bombs. Get as close to the frontline as safety permits. In general, spend some time living in Ukraine and breathing this air. After that, I guarantee it: all those hordes of Kremlin-paid grifters with microphones will no longer look like mere liars and manipulators. They will look like what they truly are -- collaborators serving an aggressor state in the largest war of today's world, and a direct threat to U.S. national security.

The Russian military executed 16 (!!!) surrendered Ukrainian soldiers at sight. This is the worst incident of POW execution known so far in this war. It happened near Pokrovsk. Look at what the Russians did - they lined the surrendered Ukrainians up, shot them all down, and then finished off those dying on the ground. When some sneaky character says 'Ukrainians just need to surrender," -- this is the answer regarding what will happen if Ukraine "just surrenders" to Russia, which is absolutely out of its damn mind and sick with absolute sadism.

Duda: - If it happens that Russian forces are leaving Ukraine, I'll be the first to call Zelensky and ask him not to bomb them and just let them go home instead, leave them be. Zelensky: - But what if my phone line is busy? 😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
