Top quality post, Mark. Yes, the globalists are getting desperate. As Colonel M points out, that's good but also bad because it could push them into even crazier acts. Where are the voices of sanity? The Russians held off attaching the Ukie electricity network, presumably because they didn't want to impact civilians. However, that has obviously changed. It reminds me somewhat of the allied bombing campaign in WW2 where we swapped from hitting workers' housing, armaments and ball-bearing factories to logistics and oil targets. It soon handicapped the Germans. They could produce all the military hardware they wanted but they couldn't get it to the front. Same in Ukraine. We can send them more billions (when Speaker Mike folds), lots of spiffy equipment and thousands of "mercs", but none of it is worth a damn if it can't turn up on the front line. Men against girly boys!
The launch of an "Iskander" can be detected by early warning systems, while ISR can pick up the MiG-31K/I deployment. This information can be relayed to the Kiev regime or any NATO personnel on the ground. On the other hand, detecting a scramjet-powered "Zircon" can be a lot more problematic.
Firing an "Iskander" or "Kinzhal" could cause unacceptable damage to purely civilian infrastructure in the surrounding areas, both due to their larger and more destructive warheads, particularly in the case of "Kinzhal", with the speed also giving it massive kinetic energy. That's why these more destructive missile systems are far likelier to be used against purely military targets such as large troop concentrations and important hostile equipment, particularly SAM (surface-to-air missile) systems and MLRS (multiple launch rocket systems) known to use PGMs (precision-guided munitions), etc.
On the other hand, precisely because of the large-scale deployment of "Zircon" missiles, Russia has more options to strike decision-making centers in Ukraine.
The other 'new' development (since Crocus; perhaps already noted and discussed here) is that Russia is stepping up its attacks against the Ukrainian supply of electricity in the industrialized regions of Ukraine. Moon of Alabama reports
"Ukraine said on Friday it had imposed emergency blackouts on three regions after Russia fired dozens of missiles and drones at its power stations overnight.
Moscow has stepped up its aerial bombardment of Ukraine in recent weeks, targeting energy infrastructure in response to deadly Ukrainian assaults on Russia's border regions.
National grid operator Ukrenergo said its dispatch centre was "forced to apply emergency blackout schedules in the regions of Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia and Kirovograd until the evening".
Restrictions were already in place in the major cities of Kharkiv and Kryvyi Rih following a Russian strike last week."
How ‘bout “Invisibility “? Works for me! The image of the two Zhous (one wearing Aviators!) accompanied by two over-sized, garish and vulgar bunnies is repulsive and degrades us all, a Satyricon on the Potomac.

Unfortunately, this is not April fools. Johnson, Schumer & the deep state are writing the Ukraine bill. Then Johnson will suspend rules to pass it.
“We’re putting that product together & we’ll be moving it right after the district work period,” -Johnson.

Johnson says Ukraine aid will come up ‘right after’ recess and will include some ‘innovations’

explains in great detail how money is being laundered through the Ukraine war by our own govt!!
Sounds like a lot of pressure on Ukraine to Johnson.
At least there was some delay…
RFK video was great, but did not mention incestrious Biden / Blackrock relationship.
RFK video
When he's right he's very right, when he's wrong ...
Remind me again what the difference is between the GOP and Dems?
Well. Can't say I am surprised.
Smh.
Wonder how long Johnson remains Speaker?
Too long.
Wish I could add an image.. Titanic style.. You can find it in the internet.. Summarizes all in an image
Paste a link to it.

Analysts are reporting that these attacks could have a devastating impact on Ukraine's war effort.

Final paragraph: that's the other piece of the new tactics since Krokus: precision hits against specific leadership targets.
Fabulous. Well written, well put together.
Bear with you on the Russian Front? Pun intended obviously or the mainstream would convict you of collusion in their usual fevered frenzy.
Missed that one. Guess I'm still giddy after celebrating Transgender Visibility Day.
