Add to the above list if you can, thank you.
Resources For Understanding The War Beyond The Bulletins
Defense Politics Asia's youtube channel and their map, who is an independent youtuber with a mostly neutral viewpoint.
Moon of Alabama, which tends to have good analysis (though also a couple bad takes here and there)
Understanding War and the Saker: neo-conservative sources but their reporting of the war (so far) seems to line up with reality better than most liberal sources.
Alexander Mercouris, who does daily videos on the conflict and, unlike most western analysts, has some degree of understanding on how war works. He is a reactionary, however.
On the ground: Patrick Lancaster, an independent journalist reporting in the Ukrainian warzones.
Unedited videos of Russian/Ukrainian press conferences and speeches.
Yesterday's discussion post.
I know it's silly, but I literally forgot that the Democratic Party in the US has been doing the Trump - Russia thing for four years. No wonder libs thirst for blood so hard now.
this could be one of the explanatory factors as to why trump's base is critical of NATO and apologetic of Russia regarding Ukraine; if the Dem media apparatus has successfully wed Trump to support of Russia across voting demographics then for Trump's support to remain substantial Russia can't be cast as a nation which threatens/weakens the US.
