I think Putin has just decided to hunker down and take it.

But nobody asked the Russian people, nor aspirants to replace him. Expect a forcible Regime Change and then a serious, probably nuclear, blowback.
 
Just some food for thought, nothing more.

Russia’s own strategists wrote down the worst thing Putin could do short of nuclear war — and it hinges on one bet about America​

Summary and Key Points: As Ukrainian drones batter Russia's refineries and a fuel crisis spreads across the country, Vladimir Putin faces mounting pressure to hit back harder. Western analysts who study Russia's escalation options have mapped what those blows could look like below the nuclear line, from cutting undersea cables to a covert land grab on NATO's border. The most dangerous of them all is a direct conventional strike on NATO territory itself, the one move most likely to trigger the alliance's mutual-defense clause. It is also, tellingly, the option Putin has the strongest reasons to avoid.

Yup...just what the See-Eye-Aye wants the Unwashed to believe. It's all Putin's doing.

Funny thing, though...I don't hear any talk of Russian oligarchs getting bids to asset-strip the USA, after Putin's done his work.

UNLIKE what we've seen BlackRockLarryFink lobby for. "Reconstruction." Sure. Just like the Carpetbaggers in the former Confederacy.
 
🇷🇺 From Russian channel Military Chronicles:

"Regarding the sudden death of the senator from South Carolina. Lindsey Graham did no small amount of harm to Russia, and his death is, without a doubt, the death of an enemy. But for now there is some uncertainty about the circumstances of his death. It's known that he died suddenly. Among the theories being discussed are a heart attack and even a blood clot. However, a few days before his death he traveled to Ukraine, where he actively visited defense plants. In those same days, by a remarkable coincidence, the Russian army was actively destroying those very plants. Whether Graham's death was a direct result of a significant quantity of explosives, delivered by an "Iskander-M" missile, entering his brain, we may never know — and the American side, for its part, is in no hurry to disclose the circumstances of his death."
