  1. If he takes the companies away from a current oligarch, then he can give them to some future oligarch.  If Reuters is correct that Russia is running out of money, maybe this is a shake down of the oligarchs who own the companies - as well as a threat to increase production. 
    Russian for “do something!”, but with the typical threat of bad stuff happening to you if you disobey the Tzar. 

    To me it’s weird because:
    A) nationalizing won’t increase production
    B) nationalizing oligarch’s personal assets may actually get Putin killed
    B) nationalizing doesn’t give him the ability to blame the oligarchs for everything
    C) so if he does nationalize, when things are even worse a year from now, Putin’s fig leaf of plausible deniability will be even smaller and there will be less people to deflect blame to. Bad politik.

  2. Clusterfuck. 
    Love the turret aiming backwards at them. 

    The best part for me is that after the APC doors open, the drone operator waits a few seconds longer than I was expecting to drop the grande. It’s like he was fully expecting the clusterfuck and was waiting for it to fully metastasize before fraging them. A true artist.
