Russia is being prepared for the loss of Kherson

The video is from a goofball show that airs nightly on Russian TV. You can read the subtitles
The only questions are will rashist soldiers make a last stand and will Ukraine let them leave or they blow the barge bridge the orcs installed yesterday. Good piece in the Daily Kos I will add in a minute.

Gonna go look at the dailykos piece. They are good with accurate updates.

Poopin’s nonsense about evoking martial law really worries me. Afraid he’s gonna round every last civilian Ukrainian up and we’ve seen what happens to these poor souls.

Let them be safe..Slava Ukraine!

4. My concern is Putin's 'IF I CAN'T HAVE IT, I"LL NUKE IT!' attitude

Nothing in almost 8 months has really shown Putin & Company gives a damn about civilian or military lives. Especially Ukrainian lives.

Now he wants to evacuate 60K people... seems out of character.

So is it possible that he wants to vaporize the advancing Ukrainians with tacnukes to save the ~20k soldiers of the RF that are stranded on the right bank so he can look like a hero of the motherland?

5. And a possible victory in Ukraine if the GOP wins in November.

He'll be absolutely jumping for joy if that happens.

With the GOP hurting America's efforts to keep the war there, Ukraine WOULD fall. Joe Biden and the democrats are the only thing holding our NATO alliances together. We could be looking at WWIII or the destruction of Europe at the hands of Putin and his GOP enablers.

6. Note they expect territorial losses for Nov and Dec. Expecting help from GOP by January?

The lady asks why they didn't anticipate these troubles. I suspect that Putin expected his minions to win elections and he'd be dealing with traitortrump and Moscow Mitch. That would have changed everything.
