New intel suggests that Putin is relocating air defense systems from around the country to Moscow. In other words, Putin and the Moscow elite will be better protected at the expense of the soldiers at the front and the overall Russian economy. If this is accurate, it’s hard to overstate it’s significance. The problem Russia faces is that every day, they have to protect a larger area with fewer assets. And not everything can be a priority which means quite a few areas are going to become even more vulnerable to Ukrainian strikes.

Ukraine Just Found Russia’s Weak Point

Learn about our truck fundraiser here: https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-summer-offensive [https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/preston-stewart-summer-offensive] Car4Ukraine shirts (100% of proceeds go to their organization): https://prestonstew.shop/collections/car4ukraine [https://prestonstew.shop/collections/car4ukraine] We need to start thinking about what happens to Russia if they cannot protect themselves from Ukrainian strikes. I mean it’s one thing for a single drone to slip through here or there but we’re seeing dozens of strikes each day against high value targets in areas that Russia knows it has to protect. This is genuinely a time in the war unlike anything we’ve seen over the past four years.

Over time, that’s going to impose a real challenge for the Russian Army at the front. But for now, they continue to push and one area in the east is coming under more and more pressure every day. Today we’re looking at Russian and Ukrainian sources to better understand what’s playing out in this specific sector of the front.

"There's No Gas At All!" - Ukraine Just Hit A Critical Supply Route

Learn about our Car4Ukraine campaign here: https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026 [https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026] The situation in Crimea is worsening for Russia by the day. Overnight, following Ukrainian strikes on the Kerch Strait ferry crossing, Crimean government officials warned that fuel is no longer available for sale except to military and state services. This follows sustained strikes on all means to keep the peninsula supplied and creates a major problem for Russia as they'll need to divert resources to keep the area habitable.

episode Why the US Suddenly Shifted on Iran artwork

Why the US Suddenly Shifted on Iran

For context we recorded this at 9am Central on Friday June 19th. One week ago the US stance was zero nuclear enrichment for Iran, they had to hand over all of their highly enriched uranium and the ballistic missile program had to be destroyed. Today, President Trump has said that only fair that Iran keeps their missiles, that we’re in no rush to get the highly enriched uranium and future enrichment is ok for civilian purposes. That is a dramatic change in a very short period of time so if you’re confused, just know that so am I. To help us unpack what exactly is happening here, we’re joined today by Ambassador Daniel Shapiro. Dan served as the US Ambassador to Israel from 2011 to 2017, and spent time working in the Pentagon, at the State Department on the National Security Council and Capital Hill.
