Interesting substack by Politique Republic (whom I’ve never heard of before). The author  remains anonymous but describes themselves as a political dissident, pundit, author, and artist. Their posts are numerous, however, the accuracy of information is unknown. As always beware the “fog of war” unless confirmed by multiple sources.
