 Yeah, we knew that already.  Uncle has given several hundred billion
dollars to Ukraine.  Might as well set the money on fire and thrown it
in Atlantic.

 Given his book reviews are mostly prepper porn, one
should have expected it.  Lynn _wants_ to see the disintegration
of the United States.
 

He's also been beating "The Ukrainians should be part of Russia" drum for some time now.

This is the truth! Ideally russian will be split up into a western part, from europe to the urals, and any nr of defanged dirka-dirka-stans, that can do what ever they please as long as they don't have any largers guns.
I believe, once the war is won and Putin defeated, that this will happen. Russia will have depleted its financial and military reserves, and numerous dirka-dirka-stans will see this as a great opportunity to break away, and making themselves rich (the leaders that is).
The west will be anxious to keep the western part, and a pro-west leader will be installed after talks between the oligarchs and the major western powers.

We're getting close:

We need to keep the pressure up.

This is incorrect. We need to _increase_ the pressure now that we are getting close to the end! I believe the war can be finished within 2-3 years!
