Former CIA Officer Larry Johnson: This Is A Controlled Leak To Prepare The Public For "Crash Landing" Of U.S. Foreign Policy

#7  Crash landing, or about face? I suspect that the deep state never meant for Ukraine to win, or even draw. They just wanted to make the process as painful as possible for the Russians. And if not for Europe, which seems serious this time, I'm sure our good friends in the swamp would have figured out a way for Ukraine to lose by now.

#5  ^ In case anyone was wondering what a poorly trained chatbot looks like.

Just thinking out loud...
I wonder if the "controlled leak" story is just a CYA to make the intel community look less stupid AND to introduce the public to the idea that Ukraine might not be headed for glorious victory. Now that the horses are out of the barn, maybe we should put up a Danger: Horse Crossing sign.
