Stubb: Ukraine is killing 30–35k Russians a month; Russia can’t replace losses. About 95% of kills are by drones.
Ukraine is retaking ground and in March launched more drones/missiles at Russia than vice versa. This isn’t charity anymore — the West needs Ukraine’s know-how.

It has been over four years since Russia launched its three-day operation.
Today, they are still fighting for the Donbas, their factories and refineries are being hit by homemade Ukrainian missiles, and Moscow is suffering from prolonged internet blackouts.
What a failure!
1/10 The Russian narrative is starting to collapse.
For years, Moscow pushed the idea that Ukraine was doomed and Russia unstoppable. That narrative is collapsing under the weight of reality.
Here’s why Russia is failing strategically despite tactical gains👇
1/5 Russia was cocky and will pay for it.
It started the war with tons of air defense interceptors and batteries.
Now Ukraine’s deep-strike campaign is draining them fast.
Russia even wasted S-300 interceptors by firing them as ground-to-ground missiles at civilians ⬇
CO2 Climate Narrative Collapses Under Basic Physics
For years, we've been told that CO2—a trace gas at just 0.04% of the atmosphere-controls Earth's climate.
But a new study in Science of Climate Change exposes the flaw:
The data doesn't add up.
93% of warming is in the oceans, yet their temperatures jump erratically, ignoring CO2's steady rise.
1963-70: Cooling.
1970-80: Warming.
Post-2000: Stability
Why? Natural solar cycles, clouds, and aerosols-not CO2.
- Satellite and ARGO data confirm: Earth warms when solar input increases. Not because of a trace gas.
The IPCC's models overstate CO2's role while ignoring the sun's dominance. Even the remaining 25% of warming is uncertain—cleaner air (fewer aerosols) means fewer clouds, which also warms the planet.
"As redistribution of "heat in the pipeline" will not change the total OHC, roughly ¾ of the observed positive trend in OHC must at least be attributed to rising solar input. The oceans act in this way as our climate system's thermal buffer. It will mitigate warming during periods of increased solar input and dampen cooling when solar input declines, underscoring its critical role in Earth's climate stability"
Conclusion: CO2's impact is minimal.
Climate sensitivity is overestimated. No apocalypse-just natural variability.
Taxing people in the belief that the Government will stop climate Change is criminal fraud!!
In 2019, Putin pompously opened a gas pipeline to China.
6 years later, having lost its EU market, Gazprom finds itself drowning in a staggering $72.7b of debt

Anyone claiming that Russia will now deliver a powerful retaliatory strike is likely on the Kremlin's payroll. It's been three days since Ukraine's brilliant operation, and Russia's only response has been a long-range rocket attack on Sumy. I mentioned this in my previous

Friends and followers! You may have noticed that I haven't posted much from Kenneth Gregg in Ukraine lately. After lots of considerations I have decided to leave Twitter/X and go for Threads. You find me and Gregg there.
25:"...my next trips will be to these fronts. I have a lot of questions to ask the generals in charge but I want to have a complete overview before I take those interviews.
Finally, to those of you who support a volunteer organization, your help is needed now more than ever."🛑
🇺🇦🧵🗣️ Yesterday my friend Kenneth Gregg in Ukraine posted this very important text on Facebook (In Swedish, of course): (1/25) "The update of Aug. 1st is about the reality on the Donetsk front.
During our trip we visited 4 combat units and 4 military hospitals and their staff.+
24:"... and the second being that it is concentrated in specially selected front-line units. The financial military aid is used correctly; the proof of that is that the soldiers get paid somewhat on time.
In order to find out what it's like in the North and South,+
