Putin's oligarchs fuming over fumbled response to Kursk incursion | Ben Hodges 

Politicians don't care about wisdom, they don't know what wisdom is

Not really. Either that or he is being dishonest. Kursk has proven to be the dumbest thing Ukraine could have done. The only reasons worth committing to it were to divert Russian troops in the Donbas or capture the Kursk nuclear power plant as a bargaining chip. It became apparent within a week neither of those things would happen. Russia doubled down there. They have been gaining ground in the most fortified areas of Ukraine at their fastest rate in two years. All for ground they can't afford to hold.

Yes, but can you imagine putler and trumpler together?!

Seconded!!! 👏

I am Russian he is tell to truth. Kremlin bot will attempt to smearing

She shines above the rest

👍. 🇺🇸🤝🇺🇦✌️

@@adamjohnjeffery He's phoney.

the Biden administration is not interested in a uke win; Uke lives are simply a disposable tool being used to weaken Putin's hold on russian power. Wake up and acknowledge the reality of the situation. Hodges is a deep state shill and WEF lackey.

I am from Germany and I am disappointed of our leadership here too. Germany, France and UK could convince Biden admin. Instead of acting only after US is doing the first step.

Ben Hodges is assuming the Oligarch is similar to a democratic senate or parliament, the Oligarchs has zero power over Putin. They are scared of Putin. he throws them of windows at his will!

I agree. Kate is smart first. Adorable is just a happy bonus.

What do you mean by adorable?

Two points: 1) Some people in our government are good people, wise, and dedicated to making America better and the lives of Americans better. 2) Some people in our government are idiots, crooks, and sell-outs. Voters in their district or state put them there. We need to be asking "What is wrong with some of us?".

There has been calls for having him in a President Kamala administration if she wins

It's all about the pay check

Hodges and Breedlove are both clear-eyed on Putin and Russia. So was and is Hillary Clinton for that matter. Obama was right, she was the better choice for President over Biden.

@@nicolasolton Hillary was a much better option than was Trump. Biden was a much better option than was Trump. Would Hillary have accomplished more than Biden had either won in 2016? That's nothing more than a guess. Both are smart, both are competent. Biden might have been better in getting legislation through Congress as this is his strong suit. But who knows?

Agree

Secretary for Defense .....

Americans were more aware of the dangers of Russia during the cold War than they are now. In fact, many Americans are now actively and openly siding with our enemy. 😮😢

The "dumbing down of America" began decades ago by the GOP supporters. It wasn't called Project 2025 back then. First it was called No Child Left Behind. Then the best teachers left the public schools and went to the private schools for higher pay. Now they're called Magnet Schools and are at least partially funded by the government. 🤔. 📜🔵🇺🇸🤝🇺🇦✌️

! concur fully I am naturalized US and 6 decades in. You have it right. As did Churchill- about America doing the right thing.

What makes you think that their choice of a replacement won’t be worse?

wha?

Russian men are totally out of control.

@@francismoran1230 :When Stalin expired, he was replaced by Nikita Kruchchev, who brought in reforms.

And for them to return what they stole from the Russian people.

Heroyam Slava!

​@@NGT_C7Thousands of Ukrainians have been demolished in Kursk.

​​@@Noel-ji8nm Russians yes ... The Ukrainians..no they tend to look after their troops and the civilians better.... fact. Second you don't have a clue what might happen next ... 🧌 go back under your bridge whilst there's bits still standing 🐐🇺🇦🧙🏻‍♂️🇬🇧

​​@@Noel-ji8nmReally? Did Putin, Tenet Media or some Kremlin bot on Telegram tell you that?

He did listen and now his country he's in recession.

I am Russian, live Samara. I still remember Putin scream "Kyiv in 3 days". Made Russia look like no-brain country

​@@dpelpalyou live in a different city every day. 🤔

The war could end by powerful people inside Russia deciding that they have lost enough, that they have nothing to gain by continuing, and removing Putin.

​@@bobwallace9753 Until the military backs those people, it won't happen. Russians are by and large apolitical, so the odds of them rising up remain slim, unfortunately.

I do not think Ukraine needs to win. Imagine the war going on for longer. I think Russia needs to suffer economic and political break down for this war to end. Putin just has nothing in his DNA that allows him to retreat from the occupied territories and settle the matter. On the other side it will be very hard for Ukraine to fight back and take back all the occupied territories. It is almost impossible and the price is too high to pay. The long term negative effects of the war on Russia might be the more important factors compared to territories. Ukrain can sustain the economic side of the war for as long as it is backed up by the European and American economies. This war will not be decided by military equipment or numbers of soldiers, but by barrels of oil sold, working refineries, wages paid and bridges, railways and roads built. The economy ends as soon as there is no longer sustainable production and transport of goods, local government, schools and infra structure rebuilt and no wages be paid.

may times after the revolution be prosperous for all Russians, and may they all learn the truth about Putin, after so many lies and deceptions. The man that snatched away your short-lived democracy.

That's sad but isn't unique, here in Italy is almost the same 🇺🇦✌

I watch TVP World (Poland), France 24, Kanal 13 (Azerbaijan), DW, Germany ... There are a lot of pretty good channels. Take into account their political leanings.

This is the wrong channel to get informations only propaganda !

​@@jjuninho3265Propaganda you say? Little peice of news for you. It's UK law that all news media, wether that be news papers (i.e. "The Times"), radio or television must be truthfull & unbiased, otherwise they lose their licence to publish and/or broadcast. Just because you don't like what you're hearing? Doesn't make it untruthful.

@@jjuninho3265 nothing like the highly reliable RT news, isn't it Boris? 😂

It's American kids in Republican states. Their states drag us down in worldwide educational rankings. Plus, who else would support Trump, but an uneducated American citizen?

Well, perhaps he wasn't the only one wrong. The US entered WWI in 1917. I get your point though.

The 1619 project is much worse.

​​​@@kennethvenezia4400 They also bought back a little bird 🐦 called enza that flue in to crowded barracks, trains and ships and killed more Soldiers and people than the whole of the first world war and their civil war. 🤔😷 The pale rider.. version 5 has been playing species leap frog already.

Imagine if Trump and co. got hold of both the Govt, the CIA and worse the state Education system. 😱😬🤦🏻🤦🏻

😂

As operator starsky and the silicon curtain said Putin's most powerful weapon is the money he has poured into his smokescreen of propaganda and electronic and social media, toxicity he's spent a fortune on spreading ... abroad and at home on the old Mushroom farm that has been Russia since 1900.

That's very generous of you to include Russia as a part of the developed world.

@@andersvestin7330 I was feeling nice. If things continue they won't be for much longer.
