Exclusive: Russia is giving Iran specific advice on drone tactics, Western intelligence source says

"What was more general support is now getting more concerning, including UAS [drone] targeting strategies that Russia employed in Ukraine," said the official, who did not want to be identified discussing sensitive intelligence.

Only surprising if you haven't paid attention to how singularly focused Trump is on orally pleasuring Putin.

Not only does Russia gain oil $'s, Putin also taxes oil exports $1 for every $2 in sales.

Didn't you forget to ask someone?
DT: I consent
VP: I consent
VZ: I don't

"We have no military force for this, I can reassure everyone that this is not part of our plans. But we have political and financial tools," the Hungarian PM said, in demanding that Zelensky open the tap on the Druzhba pipeline of Russian oil to Hungary that represents the landlocked country's critical supply.

"We hope that one person in the European Union will not block 90 billion or the first tranche of 90 billion, and that Ukrainian soldiers will have weapons" Zelensky said. "Otherwise, we will give the address of this person to our Armed Forces, to our lads. Let them call him and talk to him in their own language."

Aaand, there's the death threat directed at a NATO member state's president... oiveh...

Who can blame VZ? Orban's been the chief naysayer over Ukraine joining NATO and the EU and other pro-Putin skullduggery.

PUTIN started the war. Now he's giving targeting info to the Iranians to kill U.S. military personnel.

Are you an American or not? If you are, you're not an American patriot, that's for sure.
