Russian Supply Lines Are In Danger

Learn more about our truck fundraiser here: https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026 [https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026] So Russia is really in a tough spot right now. I’m trying to stay grounded and not exaggerate what’s happening here but we’re in the midst of some serious change and it’s the Russians themselves that are sounding the alarm. On top of that we just got news that Ukraine is leveraging US satellite imagery for near real time targeting. The next few weeks will be interesting.

Ukraine Just Flipped The War Narrative

Learn about our truck fundraiser for troops at the front: https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026 [https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026] Ukraine just offered Russia a path to end the war, saying effectively ‘we can do this the easy way, or the hard way’. While I wouldn’t expect Putin to agree to this, it shows something that’s being picked up in Russian media: for the first time in the war, Ukraine would be entering negotiations from a position of strength and could demand more than ever before. Again, not my words, but Russia’s. But also great timing for the first Ukraine aid package to pass the US House of Representatives in two years, more on that at the end of today’s video.

Iran Plans to Win By Outlasting the United States

So Iran’s strategy in this war is to outlast the United States, and honestly, I think it’s working. President Trump keeps threatening Iran that if they don’t agree to terms, we’ll restart the bombing. That’s presented as US leverage over the IRGC to come to the table. But what if Iranian leadership sees it the other way around believing that Trump wants, even needs, an end to the war more than they do? This shift might give us an idea to the Iranian strategy playing out right now and in turn, what to watch for and what to expect going forward.

Deep Strikes Expose Holes in Russian Defenses

Learn more about our truck fundraiser here: https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026 [https://car4ukraine.com/en-US/campaigns/preston-stewart-offensive-2026] Ukraine just carried out significant strikes in the St. Petersburg area on the opening day of the International Economic Forum. An oil refinery was hit, giving quite the show to the guests traveling in from around the world and then a corvette was struck in the same area. These targets are 1,000 km inside of Russian territory and their getting hit highlights the challenge that Russia is experiencing in defending all of their territory from Ukrainian drones.
