It starts with Greenland becoming increasingly strange, Trump JR had lured a bunch of homeless people there with free food for the photos with MAGA hats, and others were actors. To me, this is looking more and more like a Russian psyops actually – or maybe Trump is running his own race of course but why?
So here – before he has taken office and with all the problems he should/could address, he chooses Greenland and sends his son there?

There is likely no greater honor today than being a sniper in eastern Ukraine, and they will, as usual, be forgotten and have to process their traumas alone with their closest mourners. Almost makes one a bit religious thinking that those who perform great deeds are also the ones crucified as a thank you for their sacrifices.
Wars are all different but the one in Ukraine is absolutely black and white, and they are fighting for all the ideals that we in the West claim to stand for – and they defend the entire West.
Instead, the West has practically shown a highly pragmatic approach to these ideals of ours, but I also understand that when the history books are written, the USA will have saved the world again together with Germany, and a dose of Christianity and goodness on top of that. Ukraine did decently with the help of the USA.
I see early signs that Ukraine is going for a killing blow here, the droning and robot rain over Russia are stunning along with direct sabotage.
Engels is still burning – if you’ve been to an airport, you know they have a “fuel farm” which is a number of tanks where the tank trucks come. Engels still has some tanks left, but UA also has more drones.
Now we have completely released all individuals who burned down gas stations or grocery stores and let it be known that they acted on orders from the FSB when they were arrested. Whether it was the FSB or Ukraine posing as the FSB is unclear.
And Ukraine can now legally take the war to Russia
Then the operation to turn off the lights continues this year as well
Spall shields and possibly tanks are on their way from Poland

And Germany will send more Leo1 and Marder tanks

And the USA has confirmed that they will send large amounts of equipment in January (unless it’s a trick and Trump stops everything on the 20th).
And the Czech initiative delivered 1.5 million grenades in 2024, of which 500k were 155mm.
And Ukraine now has drones in large quantities whose warhead is a tank mine 😲
Goodness, what a weapon compared to a drone-dropped hand grenade…

Meanwhile, the Russian artillery is running on fumes 🤣🤣
At the fronts, UA has carried out a series of what I see as local counterattacks probably using the strategic reserve.
Yes, the fronts are not very uplifting and at the western side of Kursk, UA has now gone on the defensive at the second of three defense lines

And up at Kupiansk, RU has passed Oskil and is spreading like a fan on the western side. Now I mostly see it as a big trap when UA puts together a task force to clean up, but it’s never good in these situations.

We know that RU has had to change its doctrine due to a shortage of tanks, but if you look at the losses, everything is decreasing except for soldiers, which are exponentially increasing. RU is fighting less technologically now, and we are back to Tannenberg, so to speak.
Someone used to write “high knees attacking over the fields” as early as 2022 😁
The day before yesterday, we went through Trump’s and Musk’s smoke screens (which I believe they are), but it doesn’t stop there.
In Chad, there has been some kind of failed coup and Wagner has been present in the country.
Here you have a captured Wagner operative who infiltrated up through Mexico
Don’t forget all the closely cropped Chinese who, in groups, took the migration route through Mexico, or that Russia has spent tens of millions on plane tickets to Mexico for migrants to the USA – Russia is there and poking significantly.
Previously, GRU has paid Taliban millions to kill American soldiers in Afghanistan to give them a little extra incentive to fight harder.

Egypt is also mobilizing in Sinai, and Israel doesn’t like it – fits into the MENA escalation but comes a bit late and unclear to me.

And in the entire West, there are RU military drones near critical infrastructure
By the way, I have come to a realization with age – it doesn’t matter how right you are, everything must come at the right time. Sometimes when you are really cynical, you think that those who can have influence simply wait for the right moment even though they have known about situations for a long time.
If we just take the UA war, many have burned themselves since 2022 for being wrong in their rhetoric too early.
The problem with this kind of “right time” is that Russian influence operations can ensure that it never becomes the right time for certain issues they consider important.
I myself find it interesting that things we were harshly criticized for in 2022 by those “in the know,” who also knew that we knew nothing, have turned out to be true.
I haven’t finished mapping everyone’s identity and blood type yet, but some were contrarians, others Russian influence, and some just wanted to argue.
It takes a lot of energy to constantly address personal attacks, and I have discovered that life is calmer on Bluesky and Substack 😀
What makes it extra interesting is that those who argued the opposite never give credit when they are wrong, they just move on to the next and repeat the criticism.
Or when rightfully criticizing Biden and Sullivan, it turned into a lynching atmosphere because apparently, by default, you were supporting Trump, and the day after the election, everything was forgotten.
Biden and Sullivan will have a place in the history books, I can promise you, but not in the way they hoped – I will come back to that below.
It is absolutely incredible that Ukraine has made it through all of this to 2025, that the country has not been plunged into chaos or that the rulers took the easy way out with a life of luxury in Italy for the rest of their lives is also surprising. The country has some kind of fundamental resistance to Russia that shines through everything.
The NATO meeting in 2023 was some kind of low point where many representatives from the West called Ukraine “ungrateful”; it’s better now, but the fall of 2024 when Zelensky was seeking support for his victory plan was also a blood pressure raiser.
I have had a theory that I cannot substantiate, but the situation during the Cold War was such that an equilibrium was reached after starting to play “an eye for an eye,” and it became too bloody – certain areas/people were left untouched, and communication was established. A bit of a thieves’ code of honor.
Macron and France came out very strong in January 2024, and he faced a country in chaos and new elections. Right-wing, left-wing, and Islamists took to the streets, and politically, it was chaos.
Kier Starmer does the same even though he engages in quite undemocratic punishment for thought crimes, and the “grooming” scandal is much more than what the minimizers want – he faced it when he promised to send more Storm Shadow missiles with no geographical limitations earlier in 2024.
Moldova and Georgia are in chaos, and in the USA, it became difficult to navigate with Trump’s victory.
Putin/Russia always strikes back 10 times harder, and they go after you as a person and your family (I guess).
Nowadays, they can just pay any gang to threaten, right?
(threat to national security – the gangs and criminal clans).
For many in decision-making or key positions, it becomes easier not to go against Russia, both for the country and for you as a person, your career, and your family.
I believe this is the dark secret that Western leaders hide from us and the reason why Russia gets these constant free passes.
You have to pay a high personal price to go against Putin and Russia.
Until the right moment.
And some leaders are still waiting for that moment, despite Ukraine and many others in the West having already thrown their hat in the ring and paid the full price.
The EU and the USA could do so much more than they do, and the “nuclear threat” or “China” are pretexts that have been adjusted to “Putin threatens my family, and the police or security service are completely incapable, so I stand alone,” which doesn’t sound as dangerous to the citizens.
Check out the new generation of night vision goggles, a bit easier to work with than the ones we had a couple of them for the whole platoon in the 90s. We had tough vehicles and thus one night vision goggle per group, but we also practiced combat with light (pistol). Oh my goodness, it was so bad because when the light grenade moved, the shadows shifted, and you couldn’t see very well anyway.
We only heard about GRK or artillery light, but it was a whole science to light up the battlefield at the right moment so everything bathed in light.
Our night vision goggles had a “lens” (or whatever they are called), so the depth perception was worthless, and it was a bit brighter in a pale green beautiful color shift. If you were lying low in the vegetation, you couldn’t be seen.
UA has them now and conducts violent nighttime offensives against Russians who at best have light to use – almost a vampire takeover.
January starts well, and it is now widely known in Russia what a meat grinder this is, and maybe that’s why they can’t recruit new soldiers anymore?
And here are the Russian brigades with the most missing soldiers.
And discontent is brewing in the 76th VDV from Pskov, but we have heard that too often to attach much importance to it.
This is very important to me because when it happened, I refused to believe it – that Ukraine let out the VDV. The reason given then was to save the city of Kherson, which didn’t sound credible.
But it was absolutely true that the VDV slipped out three weeks before the UA trap closed again; anyone with basic analytical skills without blinders following the war saw that.
Then Zalizhny confirmed that he was denied by the USA to attack along the left bank of the Dnieper, and that’s when I thought the rumor was true – the rumor + what happened + Zalizhny equaled a betrayal by the USA.
I then tried to push it to show Biden’s and Sullivan’s enormous betrayal because the war could have ended in 2022 if the entire VDV had been captured or freed.
The criticism was absolutely enormous for Biden to win his election, and Trump was the Evil One – I’m still upset about that.
This is probably as close to evidence as we can get, considering that Zalizhny and possibly Zelensky (can’t remember) also confirmed this.
Biden and Sullivan have blood on their hands, and those who tried to downplay this event were completely wrong as usual.
Throughout this war, early assumptions have often proven to be correct – gut feeling and coffee grounds have been reliable.
However, it has been difficult to get support for these assumptions as many have considered them unreasonable and argued against them. It’s probably a mix of hidden agenda, stuck in a belief about how things are, and perhaps contrariness, but this war should have made everyone recalibrate, which many have not done yet.
Biden and Sullivan, together with Scholz, have been absolutely devastating for Ukraine. We have Taurus, Scholz also calling Putin in between and giving him relevance, and the USA stopping Gripen + AWACS for business, and because Sweden had no geographical limitations.
Germany and the USA have apparently been the two countries that have dragged their feet the most with actual deliveries, often when offensives were already over.
As well as the USA’s geographical limitations and absolute red card for the invasion of Russia in 2023.
Macron, whom everyone loves to hate, on the other hand, started doing everything right in January 2024.
Denmark is probably the country that has done the most.
And JEF is slowly starting to rise.
But the world is not fair, and now in 2025, things are starting to brighten up a bit, the sky is light blue, and the elevator music is soothing.
As I said, there are early signs that orders have been given in the sense that Russia can no longer hide behind the “Russia must not fall” card. The countries in Europe are now in 2025 prepared to go all the way and will do so – that’s what has changed from 2024, making it look light blue after that desert march and my depressive period.
Interview with the Finnish elite soldier who fell in Ukraine a while ago
Prior to the 2023 offensive, I discussed that UA would maneuver around my lines built in the summer during wintertime when they could drive on the waterways.
Now it happened in Kursk, and they were able to make their three recent advances.
But in 2023, they drove straight into the minefields instead.
The logic is that RU builds its defense in the summer and then it’s ready and not modified. UA can then map out the minefields with drones and see that they can cross waterways and wait for the ice or use splinter protection with wader capacity.
https://x.com/euromaidanpress/status/1877143294313959639?s=46&t=Vah3JXV31B9lXwZOK5gF7w
Considering all the top-notch splinter protection they are getting now and all the night combat equipment, UA has a devastating advantage over RU, which is now increasingly fighting with poorly equipped shooters.
Above all, at night, it becomes a bit like vampires against running elderly people overall.
We will see more and more successful counterattacks and counteroffensives in the coming months where UA simply also has the technology on their side now.
When the light is gone, it’s dark…
