Moscow Shutdown Triggers Shock - Jason Jay Smart

[TexasTowelie]

Moscow and St. Petersburg face total digital isolation as the Kremlin trades frontline communication for internal emergency control. The terminal arc of the Putin regime is swaying under the weight of $50 billion in railway debt and relentless precision strikes on energy hubs. Systemic failure is now a daily reality for a state paralyzed by its own design, entering a blackout phase where survival outweighs loyalty.

Over 180 drone attacks on Russian oil infrastructure and critical hits on major steel producers have shattered the physical capacity to wage war. Internal warfare reaches a fever pitch as dwindling wealth forces the elite to turn on one another for survival. Strategic desperation is triggering reckless deals, including the potential betrayal of Iran to shift the calculus of the West as the battlefield advantage disappears.

Striking parallels to the fall of Nicholas II define the current collapse of Russia’s massive but ineffective military. Fleeing elites and frozen bank deposits confirm that the system is no longer sustainable for those at the top. This turbulent cycle signals the definitive end of the Putin regime, leaving only a chaotic struggle for survival in its wake.

1. Godspeed, reality.

Anyone able to speak to the accuracy of these videos/analysis?

3. Smart does have a bclear bias, especially when he starts editorializing

but I see most of his basic information posted elsewhere.

A good source for what's happining in Russia is Konstantin Samoilov, a Russian economist who lived here for 9 years and is now in exile in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. His channel is called "Inside Russia" He digs for information in obscure industry publications and manages to come up with a good picture of what is really happening there. He's managed to piss off the PTB in Russia and has been publicly denounced by Oleksandr Dugin,m which is a pretty big deal. He broke the story of Ilya Remeslow's anti Putin manifesto a day ahead of everybody else. If you want to know what's going on in Russia, watch this channel. I'd give him about an 95% accuracy rating and that puts him way ahead of anyone else out there.

2. Sort of slurring, repeating "We see that ...", fast-talking, ...

It was hard to watch, and seemed a bit "AI"-ish.

I only hope that, as long as we're bombing Iran for no good reason, we should bomb their drone-making and drone-shipping infrastucture, to keep Iranian drones from being used by Russia against Ukraine.
