A couple of things... you see that small dented wheel (a gear) below the video... click on it, seek "speed", put it to double. You will discover a new world of quicker information.

But you do not need to see the videos in full, he has the map with all the events registered and documented that you can search and play around with at you whim.

If you want an "overview", Dima will not do the trick because he only speaks of the front. The war is being fought in the offices too.

Could it be because it's hard to lie about the position of the front lines, but lip service from the offices on the other hand is plentiful. Regardless of the outcome, we already know that both sides will declare victory "in the office". Like "this was all worth it because we stopped Russia from invading Lviv, Poland, UK...whatever, which our intelligence found totally real secret plans for". No "office" will ever admit their fuck ups, don't expect "we got the worst outcome and should've accepted proposals at the initial negotiations which were much better than what we're getting now, we're very sorry." Objective facts of control backed by photo/video evidence from the front line or propaganda, you choose what you consume

Dima absolutely DOES explain a lot about what is going one besides the front lines. But the front lines is where we can see what is really going on. So, he focuses there.

Certainly Ukrainian troops do damage. But overall Russian troops are pushing Ukrainian troops out of contested areas. And, like I said elsewhere, often Russians announce when they are going into an area by dropping flyers over the areas they will invade next. They understand that Ukrainian troops are people, and they want to give the people the opportunity to depart without being destroyed. Do Ukrainians ever warn Russians?

Until we actually see Russians falling back, we can only assume that Russia is painstakingly winning.

Col Douglas Macgregor on puppet Trump, Western BS, Ukraine's fate, Israel and EU's wake-up call

https://youtu.be/YciZukTFECA?t=3
In this gripping episode of Reinvent Money, Paul Buitink welcomes back Colonel Douglas Macgregor for an unfiltered deep dive into the geopolitical chaos unfolding across the globe. Macgregor argues that despite Trump's rhetoric, he has little control over U.S. foreign policy, with the CIA and entrenched war lobbies pulling the real strings. As Ukraine's front lines falter and Europe ramps up aggression, Macgregor claims the war is already lost for Kyiv—and warns of a coming migration crisis that European leaders seem unwilling to confront.

The conversation takes a dark turn as Macgregor discusses the Middle East, accusing Israel of pushing toward a wider war with Iran to maintain power, while U.S. support remains blindly unconditional. Meanwhile, Trump's about-face on Ukraine, silence on Gaza, and unwillingness to tackle America's unsustainable debt signal deeper systemic paralysis in Washington. According to Macgregor, even bold promises won't matter if the machinery behind the scenes keeps operating unchecked.

But the most urgent battle, he warns, isn't happening overseas—it's happening within national borders. If nations want to survive, he says, they must rediscover sovereignty, identity, and order at home. Provocative, raw, and thought-provoking, this is a conversation that demands to be seen—regardless of where you stand.
