1/ A Russian soldier has spoken of how his entire battalion was wiped out at the hands of a perpetually drunken commander who sent men unarmed and unsupported into assaults. He says his unit was in disarray, with routine beatings, alcohol and drug use, and extortion. ⬇️

In her judicial opinions engaging originalism, Justice Barrett has thoughtfully raised key questions about the challenges of implementing the methodology.

In her non-judicial appearance on Fox yesterday, Barrett was decidedly less thoughtful when defending the Court's shadow docket behavior.

Moreover, as I’ve explained at length before, the Court would have no trouble writing such an opinion in a way that doesn’t lock in any future result if and when the case returns on the merits; all it would have to do is rest its analysis on a proper balancing of the equities and a clear statement that it wasn’t conclusively resolving the merits—something it’s had no trouble insisting upon in non-Trump-related cases. As for Justice Barrett’s concern that even a short opinion might “give the impression that we have finally resolved the issue,” it’s the justices who, for the first time, are publicly insisting that even their unexplained rulings on emergency applications are entitled to precedential effect—something that wouldn’t make sense unless the justices have reached some kind of merits-based conclusion. To pretend that isn’t happening borders on gaslighting.

Laura Loomer had this 4 Star General fired. He's now speaking out. Over 300k views. Quite alarming.

An emotional appeal from an ordinary Russian citizen to gas-station magnates and other fuel-owning elites in Russia. The man is very upset that the chain owners are profiteering from the "problems of ordinary Russian people." He says they should all be whipped.

Turn up the volume :-)

Another Russian soldier from the so-called "cripple units" of the Russian Armed Forces hobbles into his final crutch-assisted assault.
Footage shows the combat operations of the "Freedom Force" battalion of the National Guard brigade "Rubizh."
