Useful framing: talks as a route to economic relief rather than a settlement. Worth tracking whether sanctions-easing language appears in any drafts.

Trump is so clearly a Russian asset

5/ Russian forces conducted a massive missile and drone strike against Ukraine overnight on October 21 to 22 following the October 21 meeting between Witkoff and Putin- a continuation of Russia’s pattern of launching large strike packages in the days before and after major peace talks.

Can you really call it "concessions" if it's something the Trump administration wants to do anyway?

Fuck trump

America Supporting Russia, that is supporting Iran to kill American soldiers.

Noting also that Poutine can only allow talk about negotiations by way of repeating the genocidal “one people” claim about Ukraine. His fixed goal remains the elimination of a sovereign, independent nation - if not by destruction than by digestion!

Continuing to see a lot more 'Ukrainian forces advanced' than 'Russian forces advanced' lately which is the main takeaway to me: the movement is still in largely one direction and it's the good direction.

The tell is the sequencing. Moscow floats talks whenever its fiscal buffer thins, then asks Washington to unlock the revenue for the next drone batch. Concessions here arent a peace track, theyre a line of credit for the war.

That’s the sad truth!

The traitor in the Whitehouse is incredibly easy to manipulate. 1. Vote 2. Check your ballot 3. Donate to Ukraine
