Russian Three Star General CAPTURED in Ukraine

I’m astounded this stuff is getting out into the universe. None of it reassuring or flattering. I’ll guess the video above was sent out to somebody in Khazakhstan to show the Kazakhs don’t take any crap and it just propagated from there.

Law of Unintended Consequences.

Important. He’s a cabinet minister. We’ll see if this is a new official policy.

The SBU also said that the only correct thing to do for invaders who want to survive and save their lives is to lay down their arms and surrender to the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Combined with the new and seized weapons stopping or slowing Ukraine will get harder.

There is some craziness going on over there. What is the advantage of doing this?

Russify Ukraine beyond the point of no return, ethnically.

Russia, since 2014, has tried to move Russians into Crimea and the parts of Ukraine controlled by the guerilla groups, while at the same time moving/forcing out Ukrainians, often to Russia.

For anyone claiming to believe in democracy and human rights, any support for the regime in Russia should be anathema to them.

He’ll get some pushback. It is more likely he’ll give support to get something in return. I’m not sure what that is. Maybe tax cut extension, who knows? He’ll be given something he can show to his caucus, which I’m not entirely sure would cut off aid to Ukraine. If he’s Speaker. If somebody else, all bets are off.

The Senate is solidly pro-Ukraine.

If Republicans win McCarthy will be knifed by MTG and others and replaced.
