Important thread on why Russian vehicles could soon suffer catastrophic tire failures (if they haven’t already). If the mud thaws soon, those Russian columns are even more screwed. Let’s hope for warm weather front.
Both the Nazis and Napoleon learned about this the hard way.
Apparently, Beijing cynically asked Putin to delay hostilities until after the Winter Olympics. That (and global warming) could help Ukraine more than a no-fly zone. The mud will turn the countryside into a giant tank trap — a no-move zone. Great timing!😬
Keep in mind this video is from three weeks ago — well before the invasion. As an atheist, I can only conclude that God exists and she loves Ukraine. #rasputitsa
I’m having flashbacks to Guaviare, Colombia 2009. I can’t imagine moving heavy armor in this kind of mud. It was almost up to my knees in places. #rasputitsa
How cheap Chinese tires might explain Russia's 'stalled' 40-mile-long military convoy in Ukraine msn.com/en-us/news/wor…

Mind boggling thread. See below for translation. Even more shocking is that Russian soldiers are using unencrypted civilian radios to communicate (Chinese Baofeng walkie-talkies captured). Did some oligarch get the contract and swapped cheap radios to pocket the difference?
Good thread on how scandalously easy it is to eavesdrop on Russian forces. It’s becoming clearer why US intelligence officials were so confident in their “predictions” about Russian intentions. Even amateurs can listen-in & troll or jam the invaders. I’m positively slack jawed!😱
It was a wannabe oligarch. Slap a Russian label on Chinese equipment and pocket the difference!🧵👇
Did it not occur to anyone to replace the equipment before going to war? I mean inside Russia — western & Chinese intelligence agencies obviously knew they hit the jackpot.

The things I had to do to chase down a footnote in 1986.😅 ImageImage
I’ve been going through some old boxes & came across this letter from Gen. Andrew Goodpaster. I remember interviewing him for about 45 minutes. I recorded it on an old Walkman that had a built-in microphone. When I reviewed the tape, I realized I had it set to record AM radio.🤦🏻‍♂️ Image
That time in 1986 when I wrote a college paper about the handiwork of Paul Manafort, Roger Stone, et al. in representing kleptocratic Angolan butcher Jonas Savimbi (one of Ronald Reagan’s terrorist “freedom fighters”). Image

The amount of far-right lies @Facebook promotes is staggering and this fake news machine will explode in volume Tuesday night and onward. #DeleteFacebook
This is exactly the Trump media game plan. The avalanche of lies will explode Tuesday night. Be prepared to fact check your crazy relative when they drink the KoolAid by the gallon.
Are the National Guard being deployed to protect vote counting centers in swing states? Trump will send his mobs to intimidate vote counters. Unlike the Florida Preppy Riot in 2000, these won’t be tame GOP staffers. These will be armed mobs. No doubt arson will be attempted.

You know who else scapegoated (((doctors))) in a last ditch effort to hang on to power? Stalin at the end of his life.
Watch this and share it every time Trump repeats his monstrous lie that health care workers are inflating COVID numbers to make more money.
Stanford researchers looked at 18 Trump rallies held btwn June 20–Sept. 22 and analyzed Covid-19 data the weeks following. They found that the rallies ultimately resulted in more than 30,000 confirmed cases of Covid-19 & likely led to more than 700 deaths. cnbc.com/2020/10/31/cor…

This is the *massive* county where Republican Governor Greg Abbott said they could have only one absentee ballot drop box for the entire county. Looks like he failed at voter suppression in Harris County!
UNBELIEVABLE!!! Keep it up, Texas! ❤️💪

The White House got the 1st formal notification of the outbreak of the coronavirus in China on January 3. It took 70 days for Trump to sound the alarm. “That more-than-two-month stretch now stands as critical time that was squandered.”
Trump squandered two precious months, hence the endless search for scapegoats. https://t.co/YvXqY9tfuN
Around and around she goes. Where the scapegoat wheel lands, nobody knows. https://t.co/8chfqP6A4R
