I get it that Putin is giving Kadyrov a chance to put up or shut up. Still it shows the Russian public that Putin is scraping the barrel:

On the other hand maybe he’ll be deployed to the front where he will ingloriously die by way of a targeted Ukrainian drone or artillery ordinance. Either way I hope he dies “not well”.

He's been beating on the Chechens since he was prime minister.

@Mik

Hate to say it but a lot of Chechens earned a beating. Collectively they have a bad reputation through all the former Soviet republics, not just Russia. They are particularly despised in Ukraine and Georgia.

It makes me suspicious of Kadyrov getting behind this obvious failure.

@Mik

Kadyrov is a hatchet man, an assassin, one of Putin’s ethnic Capos.

As I say when the time comes for him to die, he’ll die and it will not be well.

You know he’ll be a target. Of NATO intelligence too.

Graffiti seen on bridge in Ulan Bator, Mongolia:

Россия, не связывайся с монголами. Чингиз уже надрал тебе задницу. Мы сделаем это снова.

Translation: Russia, do not get involved with Mongols. Genghiz already kicked your ass. We will do it again.

Someone tweeted that the irony is that's a 90's Ukrainian pop song.

Maybe that was deliberate? Selling the liberation B.S.?

Huge deal. Another thread from before it blew describing the importance.

I haven't read Jon's thread yet, but some geography is useful.

I've read that Crimean grocers are limiting purchases to 3 kg per purchase.
