Bryansk "attack" a 🧵

Videos are circulating of "troops" in the Bryansk villages of Sushany and Liubechane

Some digging found this picture of Denis “WhiteRex” Kapustin - who organized the RDK in Ukraine in August 2022, claiming to be in Bryansk

1/7
The RDK or Russian Volunteer Corps is not part of the Ukrainian military or part of the UKR Russian Legion (which is former Russian POWs fighting for Ukraine)

The Russian Legion is not affiliated with the Russian Imperial Legion (RIM) or the RUS BARS-13 Russia Legion

2/7
Denis “WhiteRex” Kapustin is an accelerationist, MMA fighter, and Neo-Nazi, who lost his residency permit in Germany in 2019 due to his activities, is (or was) wanted by the United States FBI, wanted in Russia, and was investigated for drug trafficking in Ukraine

3/7
According to Anti-Fascist Europe, the RDK has about 50 members

The flag they are holding is a design by World War II Nazi collaborator and Russian Liberation Army (ROA) officer Viktor Larionov

4/7
antifascist-europe.org/russia/russian…
The anti-Putin position of the RDK aligns with the Russia Imperial Movement (RIM), which wants to see Russia return to an ethnostate ruled not by Putin but by those with bloodlines to the Czars and the rules of the Russian Orthodox Church

5/7
malcontentment.com/washingtons-de…
Denis Kapustin's Telegram page is one wild rabbit hole where he simultaneously praises and condemns Igor Mangushev after he was executed

Agreeing with Neo-Nazi values but condemning him for fighting for Russia

(one example there is more)

6/7
Conclusion/Hot Take

The claims of raids in Bryansk seem somewhat legit

This appears to be some bizarre accelerationist attack. unaffiliated with Ukraine's government

The RDK is the brainchild of Kapustin and has approx 50 members

The same number of attackers in Bryansk

7/7

Analysis of Jeddah Talks Between Ukraine and U.S.

It's true! Zelenskyy does not have any cards because he's not playing poker. He just won a game of 3D chess.

The U.S. and Ukraine agree to immediately restore military aid and intelligence sharing and to a 30-day ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine War. Negotiations on the "mineral deal" will be restarted.

1/14Image

Over the weekend, President Trump, Secretary of State Rubio, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk made inflammatory statements and false accusations directed at Ukraine. Zelenskyy and his team didn't take the bait.

Hours before today's negotiation, 337 drones attacked Russia, and according to the Russian Ministry of Defense, at least 91 targeted Moscow. 🧂🧂

Drones and missile and drone debris rained down across Moscow, closing airports, rail lines, and highways and killing and wounding dozens.

That was part of Zelenskyy's 3D chess.

Publicly and on the record, Zelenskyy is ready to accept a 30-day ceasefire. This undercuts the Trump administration and their surrogates talking points.

The U.S. responded by restoring military aid and intel sharing. This undercuts Trump administration critics talking points.

State Duma deputies are already saying there will be no ceasefire; Ukraine will use it to rearm/reconstitute its force in a month and attack us!

The White House is setting conditions in the information space to justify a land invasion of Canada.

Someone needs to say it. The messaging is undeniable.

Unless the adults reenter the room, it will happen.

1/9
A) Questioning NATO loyalty and if the Alliance would support the US. Wrapped in a tasty sandwich of what if China attacked! That's not the real reason he is questioning the loyalty. Trump wants a coalition of the willing to help isolate Canada.

2/9
B) Calling the US-Canada international border and the treaty that created it "illegitimate." This is straight out of Putin's playbook, and not just in Ukraine.

We will learn how far down the authoritarianism slide the U.S. is going on 14 March, when the continuing resolution expires.

The FY2025 budget will reveal the priorities, which agencies and cabinets Congress will defund, and which groups are receiving "classified" dollars.

Today, a YouGov poll found that 41% of the over 4,000 Americans surveyed believe Donald Trump is a "dictator." The remaining 45% don't, and the rest are unsure.

1/10
This weekend, expect a Russian-grade purge to start in the Pentagon. All of the "bad" actions happen over the weekend because that's where bad news goes to die.

Next weekend (or the one after) expect a similar purge in Justice and the FBI to start.

Congresscritters are receiving death threats at an unprecedented level to comply. Those who are giving in should look to Belarus, Georgia, and Hungary to see that complying only delays the inevitable.

There is no reason not to believe the FBI and Justice will start arrests of investigators, Senators, and Congresspersons. It was said aloud. It's in Project 2025. Kash Patel promised it.

The so-called Proud Boys' getting the band back together in Washington, D.C., today, less than 24 hours after the U.S. Marshals deputized Elon Musk's private security detail, was not a coincidence.

They have a plan and a playbook, and it was published. Remember all those "Project 2025 is not real" comments? Those were the same people posting about World War III will be tomorrow, too.

Didn't Putin talk about Oreshnik today?

2/10
In the 21st century, they don't put books in a pile in the middle of the road and burn them. They delete the books out of virtual libraries and invisibly rewrite paragraphs they don't like, and no one really sees it. They block links to websites. They buy up social media channels and media houses to shut them down.

In the 21st century, they don't send brown shirts to execute you like in the Night of the Long Knives or put you on the wall like Stalin in 1937. They erase you from social media and threaten to sue you into oblivion, so you quietly go away. Maybe you get beaten by "random people" if you try to fight back.

We already have Winston Smith at the Ministry of Truth, toiling away to make unpersons. Internet archives are erased, search results are manipulated, and news stories are removed from search indexes. It's all clinical, clean, and invisible.

The sharp dropoff in glide bomb strikes on Ukraine coincided with four events. A 🧵1/8

👉🏼Ukraine developed the capability to provide near nationwide GPS/GLONASS jamming and spoofing
👉🏼The US, UK, and France lifting restrictions on deep strikes within Russia's 1991 borders using allied-provided weapons
👉🏼The arrival of winter weather conditions
👉🏼Coupled with the targeting of key industrial alcohol plants in the Russian Federation
2/8
With almost 3 weeks of data showing a sharp decrease in sorties conducted by the VKS and the number of glide bombs being used daily falling to summer 2023 levels, a lot of people are asking, why?

The team considered several theories, and we caution you to avoid reaching a causation fallacy.
3/8 Theory 1: The VKS was forced to fall back to airbases further away from the frontlines due to Ukraine's new ability to conduct deep strikes.

Analysis: Prior to the approval to use NATO Alliance-provided missiles to strike within Russia, Russia had already pulled back a lot of its air assets. Storm Shadow and SCALP-E are subsonic, making evac of a threatened airbase viable. Ukraine doesn't have enough ATM missiles to wipe out multiple airbases, and Russia knows this.

Counterargument: Operating from more distance bases increases flight time, fuel consumption, pilot fatigue, and maintenance requirements. In the last month, Ukraine has demonstrated it spent 2024 developing and testing its own long-range strike capabilities and is now moving many of these systems to serial production. Russia may have pulled back further over the late summer, but that decision has finally caught to reality.
