Too early to confirm but there are rumblings that the Russian "regular" army is going to have to start diverting efforts from rape, torture and looting washing machines to guarding the Russian border and preventing their "allies" in separatist militias and local collaborators from fleeing into Russia.

Where are we at on the “would Putin’s successor actually be less terrible than Putin?” question?

None of the events today or of the past two weeks are possible. Surely @sonofdaxjones can help me understand.

I have seen reports that reinforcements have been halted.  How long will they hold out with the current attrition levels, not long I'm guessing.

What is O/U on a Putin window fall?  If they keep getting their drunk asses kicked all over he takes a slip before end of September

What is the old adage? "better to not invade and have people think the US could help Ukraine kick your entire ass then to invade and remove all doubt"

It's a 1500 km front.  Who was defending these areas for the Russians? 

I've seen multiple articles from entities claiming that Europe has "solved" it's energy problems for the Winter, and yet one EU//Euro politician after another keeps popping up with doom and gloom. 

Speaking of Goldman, what are their various positions in Europe, are they trying to bolster their holdings with positive propaganda?

The great thing about armchair #neocons is that they weirdly believe no one is firing back at the Ukrainians and no Ukrainian is actually dying in this "offensive".

“Production in Germany is currently no longer competitive,” said Reiner Blaschek, the CEO of ArcelorMittal Germany, which recently shut down two plants in the country. He is calling for quick political intervention, saying, “We need competitive energy prices for industry.”

“More and more companies are telling us that they no longer have a supply contract for electricity or gas at all. The tap is turned off in the truest sense of the word,” DIHK President Peter Adrian told the RND newsroom. “But without energy, no economy can run.”

So who is telling the truth here, Goldman, or the people actually on the ground and in the business in places like Germany?

https://rmx.news/article/without-energy-no-economy-can-run-german-companies-warning-they-have-no-electricity-contract-could-signal-disaster/

https://www.electroluxgroup.com/en/cost-reduction-program-and-management-changes-34529/

Are Joe's controllers getting their marching orders from Rand Corp?

The current German economic model is based on two pillars. These are unlimited access to cheap Russian energy resources and to cheap French electric power, thanks to the operation of nuclear plants. The importance of the first factor is considerably higher. Halting Russian supplies can well create a systemic crisis that would be devastating for the German economy and, indirectly, for the entire European Union.

It's one thing to maybe be able to keep people warm, it's a whole other thing to have a manufacturing production capacity that's economically viable.
