Your ignorance is manifest.
Presidential administrations which oversee momentous transitions always slash a bloated bureaucracy.
Truman cut more than 556,000 jobs at the end of WW2.
Clinton eliminated 365,000 to get a “peace dividend” at the end of the Cold War.
Even Obama slashed jobs.
Trump is a President at the head of a nation in transition.
And a bloated, corrupt federal bureaucracy is fair game.
You’re just mad because he’s not ideologically aligned with you.

KUZMA’S MOTHER
For three years I helped lead the charge for improving relations between the US and Russia. Now, with peace at hand, I reflect on the reality that the role of rogue peacemaker may no longer be in vogue.
Last night myself and my friend and fellow independent journalist, Garland Nixon, made our way to the Russian Embassy in Washington, DC, the invited guests of the chargé d'affaires, Alexander Kim, and the Defense Attaché, Colonel (promoted to Major General) Pavel Terkin, to celebrate Defender of the Fatherland Day.

BRITAIN WILL FAIL TO UNDERMINE US-RUSSIA RAPPROCHEMENT
Ukraine's new potential president lives in Russia. And Zelensky's personality and behavior are increasingly irritating the American administration. This is the core of the fundamental divergence between Europe and the United States on Ukraine.

Literal bullshit.
Quit mirror imaging your own murderous predictions on the Russian nation.
History will show that Russia waged an incomprehensibly moral conflict against a fundamentally corrupted nation infected by the disease of Banderism.
America would have treated you like ISIS.
Leveling your cities.
Collectively punishing the innocent for the crimes of the guilty.
Ukraine is lucky they fought the Russians.

Zimovsky’s analysis is flawed.
We can ignore his casualty calculations as a byproduct of bad data.
Russian casualty rates have dropped from the spike that took place at the outset, and the period of the Wagner assaults around Bakhmut.
The war is fought on the basis of an attritional model where the infliction of enemy casualties and the minimization of friendly casualties are imperatives.
One would say it takes far more tactical and operational skill to implement this model than the maneuver-specific models seemingly favored by Zimovsky.
The key here isn’t that this model of attrition be extended artificially by linking it to a territorial paradigm; this model is about sustainability of resources, the exhaustion of one side’s ability to continue the fight.
This is strategic thinking.
Russia can sustain this model for the foreseeable future.
Ukraine cannot.
Which is why almost all observers of the conflict concede that Russia is prevailing in dominant fashion.

UKRAINE’S ENDGAME PHASE
The situation in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the prospect for a negotiated peace literally defines the term “fluid.” Positions that were once seen as carved in stone have vanished, and relationships that were deemed rock solid have crumbled. The winds of change that have swept through US domestic politics under President Donald Trump, leaving chaos in their wake, have shifted to foreign shores, with no less disruptive an impact. The trans-Atlantic relationship between the US and Nato, once described as a “sacred bond” by former President Joe Biden, is teetering, as the foundation of a common cause that historically held it together erodes with changing US priorities. Amid this geopolitical anarchy, Ukraine, which once had the full support of the collective West, is left confronting the Russian forces that invaded and occupied its land. Western support is now very much in question, with the US realigning its strategic priorities in a manner that appears to favor Russia, and Europe is scrambling to respond. The ability of Ukraine to continue to resist the Russian military under these conditions is also in question. The key question is no longer whether Ukraine can be positioned to defeat Russia, but rather what Ukraine will look like after a peace agreement.

Europe spent over 21 billion Euros purchasing Russian gas in 2024.
Europe sent 18 billion Euros in aid to Ukraine in 2024.
Europe funding Russia’s war effort while bankrupting itself is the defining feature of European geopolitical irrelevance.
The sooner the United States distances itself from this insanity the better.

TOLSTOY’S FOLLY
“Happy people have no history,” Leo Tolstoy wrote in Anna Karenina, a story about a very unhappy Russian lady whose mental instability manifested itself in her eventual suicide.
Russians who lived during the transition from Gorbachev’s Perestroika to Yeltsin’s “shock therapy” were, by Tolstoy’s literary posturing, inherently unhappy people, since they lived in a time which rewrote the history of a nation and people.
