You buy a piece of land from a seller: agree the terms, sign a contract, pay, etc. Next day, the seller says:
"Get out of my property! Historically, it's mine!"

Many cite desertion figures to point at a crisis in the Ukrainian army. Our team, Frontelligence Insight, after consulting with mobilization officers and reviewing data, found that while desertions are high, the actual numbers are lower than quoted:

We must win the war against Russia for the same reason that we had to win the war against the Axis powers eighty years ago.
In both cases, there could not, and cannot, be a half-victory. That would make no practical or concrete sense, given the nature and aims of the enemy.

Vance, Rubio, and Hegseth definitely need a 28-point plan to solve their senseless war that would have never happened if the US had proper leadership. If Dmitriev is willing to draft a new one, I volunteer to translate it from Russian and promise to do it better than Witkoff.
FWIW, RUMINT, but pretty reliable:
1. Vance key to US embrace of Russia plan on Ukraine, Rubio (and even Trump) out of the loop.
2. Vance-Rubio relations “awful.”
3. Rubio told the senators exactly what they said he told them.
4. Hegseth paranoid he’ll be shoved out, Driscoll will replace him.
