Donald Trump was deliberately left in the dark about Ukraine’s unprecedented drone strike in Russia on Sunday, which destroyed nearly a third of the Kremlin’s strategic bomber fleet in a surprise attack.
The large-scale drone attack saw a fleet of drones scattered all across Russia carry out simultaneous attacks on five airbases, wiping out 40 irreplaceable military bombers worth an estimated $7 billion, which have been used to reign terror upon Ukrainian civilians.
“Operation Spider-Web” took over 18 months to plan and was personally overseen by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, a source told CBS News.
As is appropriate.
I’m trying to recall a disco song from, I believe, the 1970s whose lyrics in the chorus went somewhat like the following - though I might be mistaken:
“That’s the way uh-huh, uh-huh, I like it, uh-huh, uh-huh”
Not totally sure of the relevance, but you’re thinking of K.C. & The Sunshine Band’s 1975 That’s the Way (I Like It).
Good, thats what they should do
10. Having inward spies, making use of officials of the enemy.
12. Having doomed spies, doing certain things openly for purposes of deception, and allowing our spies to know of them and report them to the enemy.
You can’t beat the classics.
Considering Trump is a Russian asset, that was a smart move to keep him out of the loop.
They need to false flag him next time
I’m struggling to think of how that would work. Have a Ukrainian agent pretend to be his Russian handler?
In reality, Trump’s biggest use to Zelensky is for strategic disinformation. Occasionally “leak” info to Trump, knowing it will get passed directly to Russia.

That was what I meant, have Zelenskyy say they will do X and then russia preps for that, and then do Y
Should have fed him a false location and then monitored Putin’s move. Would have confidently proven that tRump is an asset if moves were made to the fake target. Trap this fucker and then public punishment!

Putin, the Saudis, Israel, FIFA…
Trump’s White House possibly has the highest listening-devices-per-sqft of any office on the planet. I wonder if signal interference is a problem.
I can just see Putin, Saudis, Netanyahu sitting around a table bickering about who gets the best bandwidth from listening equipment at the oval office, because little children just refuse to share…
It works like Mr. Burns’ immune system. Everyone is trying to listen in on Trump, but they step on each others toes and cancel out.
Star Fleet Intelligence also operates on this principle.
Or maybe this op was withheld because they had already done that.
Hopefully, we don’t hear about some intelligence agent with a new book coming out in the future regarding how tRump was a known asset for the Kremlin and how he was caught red-handed giving info to Putin in some false-flag operation.
What kind of twisted toxic argument is to phrase it like that and call it news?
“Ukrainians didn’t directly endanger themselves and their long term military plans to inform unrelated enemy nation”
Oh, is that why it was such an effective attack?
Guys they did the same for Biden. Sure, trump is Putins puppet but this is standard for such massive ops.
Because it’s blatantly obvious he supports Russia how often has he accused Ukraine of starting the war by being invaded now?
Should probably use him to give the Russians false Intel.
You do what you must when your life is on the line
And what you absolutely must do is not say a fuckin word to trump. Unless maybe you want him to pass disinformation to Putin.
So, purposely say misleading things to him. Ideally things that harm him too when it gets obvious he snitched
I’m honestly surprised this hasn’t been happening for the past 9 years.
You do not inform enemy agents of your secret military operations.
This first time I saw this headline I was like “YEAH, why would they???”
Ukraine is a sovereign country, they don’t need to tell Don anything.
Exactly. As a courtesy they might give trusted allies a few hours notice, or at least inform them when the op has started. But unless they needed the assistance of an ally in planning and preparing such an attack then informing anybody well ahead of time serves no useful purpose at all.
No US weaponry was used in this righteous attack either, literally no reason to put the US in the loop
Ukraine is a sovereign country
NATO to the left of me. Putler to the right.
Ukraine’s a few steps shy of Kurdistan when it comes to sovereignty. They don’t even bother with elections anymore, given how much of the country is contended or outright occupied. So much of the killing and the dying is about changing that.

What the actual fuck are you saying? Are you implying that Russia is doing Ukraine a favor by initiating the killing so Ukraine can become part of Russia to avoid the killing that Russian could’ve simply not done?
What the actual fuck are you saying?
That Ukraine is occupied territory. It’s as sovereign as the West Bank atm. Pretending otherwise is delusional, not patriotic.
Except it is not occupied territory.
Someone inform Crimea.
If it’s been said to a Russian troll once, it’s been said a thousand times now. Ukraine’s constitution doesn’t allow for elections during a state of war.
Hope they don’t end up like Korea, technically in a State of War for 70 years running.
As they should in the future as well.
“Ukraine doesn’t give intel to obvious Russkie mole”
Yeah, no shit
I would be more curious to know if there is anyone downstream of Trump working within the Pentagon/CIA that’s still actively coordinating US intelligence with Ukranian forces.
Like, is the entire US military cut out of Ukrainian operations at the NATO level. Or is some faction within the Joint Chiefs pulling a SpaceX and giving Trump/Hegseth the Elon Musk busy-box while they run things outside his purview?
Good. He’d have fucking spilled the beans
He would have literally called Putin and tried to make a ‘deal’ the second he heard any plans
I don’t like this planet anymore 👍
