BRACE FOR INSIGHTS!
Ukraine, by Attempting an Assassination of President Putin has just Gravely Escalated the NATO/Ukrainian-Proxy war with the Russian Federation! The New Year of 2026, perhaps the Most Pivotal Year in Human History, Will Begin with a BANG!
I initially started writing this article on the last day of 2025. New Year’s Eve was upon us. At this time of these shortest days of the year in Washington State’s Northwestern Interior of islands in a Salish Sea, faint hours of winter daylight advanced into the long hours of night. As midnight and the new year approached and as I was typing my first 5,800 words of this article, I would soon see the fireworks flash to the east of my second-floor home office window in my flat in Langley, WA, followed by a thunderous escalation announcing our passage into a New Year. I looked up for a moment to witness the distant coruscation and thunder of firework barrages along the mainland coastline beyond Whidbey Island.
Whenever I hear the fireworks of New Year’s Eve, or larger reports of martial thunders and fulgurations of the Fourth of July celebrations, I can’t help but feel that part of me, only a distant memory that had incarnated before, now stir memories of fighting and often dying in wars of lifetimes past, to such familiar rumbles and flares. It summons up for me the rolling rumble of distant battlefields. They had called to me during the Napoleonic Wars, two lives ago. Guiding my squadrons of light and heavy horsemen of France through expanses of Russia, riding to the sound of the cannons in 1812.
We, and I, the invaders.
A Russian cannon ball would eventually stop my advance, rushing through my guts, and I soon after passed from that life.
And perhaps “soon,” again, in this life, the thunderclap of world war in 2026 will stun, and pound out perhaps, the ultimate and final war’s outcome.
This new year may be “that” year, more likely than any other before it, around which the Earth had orbited its Sun.
This may be the moment humanity crosses the red line beyond the unthinkable, largely because the political creatures that generally govern a hegemonically, and rapidly declining West—unable to hold on to 500 years of Western Colonial Global abuse and exploitation of the human majority—is presently confronted with that global majority breaking free of us Western invaders and controllers. They are guided and protected by the resurgent superpowers of a reborn Russia and China, joined by the soon-to-be, southern superpowers in South Asia (India) and South America (Brazil). All four of them already make up the core—and the fulfillment—of one of my boldest prophecies made some time back in the early years of this new century, that seems to be rapidly becoming a reality. It’s called the BRICS, an acronym standing for its core members (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa). It has become a way to a better human future as I predicted.
They gather a greater world of nations, outside of the Western, 17.5 percent population out of eight billion, that belong to the diminishing Western Powers (the United States, EU/NATO European nations, Australia, New Zealand and a wannabe Western-oriented superpower, a militant resurrection of “Imperial” Japan). They presume to confront a global majority of over EIGHT BILLION-plus human beings that want to move beyond their former colonial masters, and be free of them, free of their military and economic oppression and warmongering of five century’s 100-year lengths. Most of suffering humanity want a world without a war business always looking for a new infernal effusion of blood, to profit by. Earth’s majority want peace; they want to trade; they want a stable world that is required for these wants, to spread peaceful interaction and commerce with each other.
These are all the things the Western World does not want them to enjoy. And you know? I sometimes fear that European/American dominance has gotten so deeply rooted in the Western humanity’s DNA, given that more wars have soaked Europe’s soil head and shoulders above the fighting of any other Global continent, that they can’t see the need yet to cut their losses and redefine themselves. Their leaders in Europe believe that they are still great powers when in fact that’s over. And the Military Industrial Complex of the United States, so corrupted by creating crap weapons putting profits first over purpose last. They now stand in the ruins of a manufacturing base that just can’t match the real economic might of the ascendant Eurasian power Russia, the Asian might and wealth of China and India, as they unite together becoming the beating heart of the BRICS.
The leaders of the West have become so lost in the habit of being on top of the pile of bloody misery they have made for the rest of the world’s people suffering their imperial fantasies. The Westerners have of late fallen into a Cuban Missile Crisis “Amnesia” of what nuclear war is, something you never light off, like it was conventional. The Western leaders are set to whistle in a nuclear graveyard to come, dreaming some mad idea that they can survive it if they launch it, that they can “win” this current Third World War even if it must go nuclear after the first four years since February 2022 have kept the fighting tenuously conventional.
But what of 2026, a numerological “10” year—a year of completion, or of endings? What will this year finally end? The conventional world war escalating into a nuclear world war, or just end both potentials dying with a whimper, no Götterdämmerung, no Ragnarök, no Armageddon?
The Western leaders in the US and Europe, they perchance to dream—to nightmare—a fantasy, that peace will not be given a chance, but using nuclear weapons as a last resort, one step remaining to win everything back before defeat overcomes them, will launch nuclear weapons on Russia and China. And they believe that they will win! That the victors will be the Western civilization, albeit masters of a far diminished human civilization, but its remains at the end of days, will still leave them masters of its ruins.

Back on 28 December 2025, around 4:00pm Eastern Standard Time (EST), President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine, was in face-to-face meetings with US President Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago, his ornate “Winter White House” in swank Miami Beach, Florida. President Trump had already spoken on the phone with President Putin and requested that he wait where he was located for further updates coming in the next few hours after Trump’s finished up negotiations with Zelensky.
Was it a mere coincidence or by intent that Ukraine on European Russian time, eight hours ahead of Eastern Standard time, got the word from elements in the Ukrainian government, who perhaps—and I stress here, perhaps—got the go-ahead either from their European NATO handlers or directly from the US Central Intelligence Agency, launched a swarm of 91 drones from Northern Ukraine in waves over several hours, directed by the CIA, deep into Northern European Russia, aimed at obliterating not only the Russian President and his country house near Lake Valdai in Velyka, Novgorod, near St. Petersburg, but also what was stationed in his residence, a nuclear war command center, given that wherever the Russian President is in residence, whether it is his usual home in the Kremlin, or in Sochi, or his hide-away near Lake Valdai, Novgorod, all must include a nearby command center, staffed by Russian generals and crews, where Russia could, God forbid, launch nuclear weapons if Russia was being attacked that moment in a leadership decapitation attempt. The Russian President alone, can fire the nukes.
Trump on 28 December told President Putin to sit there and wait for his call. Not long after, he and his nuclear nerve center were under attack!
Here then, is the initial communique released to the world the following day from the Minister of Defense of the Russian Ministry of Defense (MOD) of what transpired overnight into the morning:
Between December 28 and 29, the air defense systems of the Russian Armed Forces repelled a terrorist attack by the Kyiv regime using 91 attack drones on the residence of the President of the Russian Federation in the Novgorod Region.

The MOD message claimed and later updated that all 91 Ukrainian drones were shot down by Russian Air Defenses all along their course where they entered Russian Airspace over the Bryansk district, leaving a trail of downed drones, their crash sights scattering northward up into Novgorod (note the downed drone icons in the map above.)
Apparently, no one was killed or injured, and no damage was done to the President’s estate and nuclear bunker station. That he was told by Trump to wait where, maybe indeed Putin was at Valdai receiving that message. If he had been there, that would be in the middle of the attack time window to strike him dead.
By the way, Putin didn’t wait for Trump’s second call.
The following day he called Trump and told him he had been under attack. Trump exuded shock and horror as if he was surprised. Maybe he was, but maybe not. More on that later.
“The response to Kiev’s attacks will not be diplomatic!” declared the Foreign Ministry’s spokeswoman Maria Zakharova. RT reported that “She stressed that the unprecedented nature of the drone attack on Putin’s residence lies in the fact that it was carried out during ongoing Russia-US talks for a peaceful settlement.”
And because of that, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will now “revise its negotiation position” because of Kiev’s “reckless actions,” RT noted.
President Zelensky loudly protested that the attack even happened. He called it fake Russian news.
I think he protested too much. The UK Daily Telegraph documented what Zelensky said on his Christmas Day Address broadcast across Ukraine. He openly declared his following Christmas wish to his people, “Today we all share one dream, and we make one wish for all of us, may ‘he’ (Putin) perish!”
Zelensky’s chief of GUR (Ukrainian Military Intelligence) Kiril Budanov has openly admitted that the GUR “has made several attempts to assassinate Putin that have been unsuccessful up to now.”
There’s a long and objective list of Ukraine fighting a dirty war with Russia, blowing up retired and active Russian generals with car bombs, reporters being assassinated. I wrote a HogueProphecy Report about Russian Philosopher Alexandr Dugin’s daughter, journalist Daria Dugina, being killed in a car bomb before her father’s eyes. Mediazona, one of the few pro-Ukraine sources, working for the BBC, that tries to get the real and factual Russian death toll at around 120,000 rather than a million or more, because they examine the K.I.A. funeral records and news announcements all across Russia, and have also included out of the seven Russian generals thus far killed, at least three died from Ukrainian dirty-war assassinations.
President Putin just missed getting his helicopter shot down near Kursk by a swarm of Ukrainian drones in 2024, to prove Budanov’s comment.
Back to Zelensky’s final one-on-one meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, at 4pm EST in Miami. More clarifications about the window of time when 91 drones had entered Russia airspace heading for Putin’s Valdai residence put the period of the attack starting at 11pm Moscow time on 28 December and lasting up until the ninety-first drone was shot down around 7am the following morning of 29 December.
The Western Press, in Europe and the BBC especially, aren’t very reliable when it comes to tracking where Putin spends most of his time after hours. It is because the BBC has gushed the story so often that Putin stays most of the time near lake Valdai, goes against what I’ve seen and what Putin himself admits, that since the war began nearly four years ago, he’s mostly stayed in his apartment in the Kremlin. By the way, another Budanov assassination attempt in 2023 tried to launch a long-distance drone striking the gold tinted roof and flag right over the Kremlin complex where Putin’s apartment and office are situated. Russian anti-aircraft electronic defenses scrambled the fixed wing drone signals making it miss and crash into the flagpole atop the building were Putin resides, starting a small fire on the roof.
“Maybe” he was at the phone in his Kremlin office waiting for that call from Miami. However, maybe he was at Valdai, because I imagine that the CIA could track his location if they were listening in on Trump’s phone conversation with Putin. Also consider how Putin “did not” pick up that second, follow-up call from Trump. Ducking drones, perhaps?
Perhaps I was wrong, maybe Putin was at Valdai. Maybe the drones were launched because the CIA tracked him being there. Maybe they were listening into the phone connection between the two presidents. And there we had the Russian President “and” his bunker for a nuclear launch of Russia’s missiles.
The Russian Federation in 2024 or a little earlier, updated their nuclear doctrine, including that if the president and leadership are targets of a decapitation attack, or the president “at one of his nuclear launch headquarters” is under attack, both actions will produce, indeed will now be grounds for, a full nuclear retaliatory response on the attacker’s nation and people.
Once again, the world might have dodged a terrible miscalculation by Trump’s CIA handlers, that might have ended on 28-29 December with a full-scale nuclear exchange!
That means every human being was ultimately threatened with human extinction because of the Ukrainians launching—and the CIA guiding—those 91 drones, especially during ongoing peace talks.
Given the BBC blabbing about Valdai, and MI6 British Intelligence being the key European “helpers” in Ukraine’s dirty war deeds, might we also assume that Brit. spooks were involved in this attack, helping the CIA? There’s no way Ukraine could launch nearly 100 drones and guide them towards that target deep inside European Russia without UK-CIA assistance. The fact that the world’s governments by a mass majority reject Zelensky’s claim that this is a Russia false flag—especially silent are those nations like the US, UK, France, China and India, who each have the technological means to refute Russian claims of that drone attack.
Well, even the US, British, and French governments haven’t refuted the Russian claim. Their silence, friend and foes of Russia alike, proves that it happened.
The Russians are now displaying some of the shot down drones and their investigation is ongoing. Take for instance, RT.Com. I know why the West, especially Europe NATO nations, has banned all broadcasting from it. I’ve vetted them since 2011/2012 to the present. I can count on one hand the times they’ve been inaccurate in their reporting. That’s how you get banned from Western media audiences as a source. It’s just the opposite for US and European outlets. The more they botch or just ignore the facts the more they stay on the air, even when their audience numbers have completely tanked because of it.
What’s more concerning to me is that a whole lot of people in the US Deep State and the dozen or so US intelligence agencies DO NOT want peace or successful negotiations ending the war. If anyone is playing a false flag assassination attempt with 91 drones to provoke the Russian bear to dramatically escalate this war, expanding it to NATO European targets, look primarily to the CIA, as well as to MI6 in London, lesser so the French, German intelligence operatives, aiding and abetting this action on 28-29 December.
Is Trump in on it too?
Is Trump out of the loop and CIA and MI6 are going rogue?
Frankly, the CIA has gone rogue since they assassinated Kennedy in 1963 after that US President had boldly dared to break up the CIA “into a thousand pieces” after they manipulated the new president to approve a small CIA-trained, anti-Castro army to land in Cuba at the Bay of Pigs (17-20 April 1961) and begin an anti-communist counter-revolution. The CIA tried to entrap the new president by pressuring him to draw the United States directly into invasion by providing US air support. Kennedy would have none of it as that might start World War III with the Soviets. The anti-Castro Cubanos were destroyed or captured by Castro’s Soviet armed Cuban forces. The CIA aided in taking out Kennedy by assassination, and basically since 22 November 1963 when he was shot dead in Dallas, no US president really controls this US rogue spy agency ever since. The Deep State made its first great leap forward after 22 November ’63 and they’ve never stopped being an occupier of the United States, a threat to its Constitution, its freedoms, a threat to its people.
President Trump is merely the newest US President that doesn’t control, or perhaps even know, what the CIA is doing and his Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, can’t even get through Trump’s Chief of Staff Susan Wiles who plays the role of an immovable gatekeeper against any cabinet member informing the president about the CIA schemes “and” any criticism and facts kept away from the president about the Zionist takeover from an “American First” policy into “Zionist Israel first” reality.
Nowhere is the CIA deeper “in country” especially since 2014 than in Ukraine. It had built around 24 bases along the Russian border to surveil and infiltrate Russia across Ukraine and the Russian Federation’s very long, shared border. It is an open fact that when the Obama Administration staged and assisted extreme Ukrainian nationalist and Banderite Ukrainian Nazi elements to initiate the Maidan coup d’état deposing the “last” truly democratically elected President Viktor Yanukovych at the end of February 2014, the new regime opened its doors to the CIA literally re-inventing from the bottom up Ukraine’s Military (GUR) and civilian (SBU) intelligence agencies.
It is said that both the CIA and British MI6 moved in, taking entire floors for each other’s personal us in the sprawling, multi-storied GUR and SUB headquarters in Kiev. They do what they like, and what they like doing, especially British Intelligence, is waging asymmetric (otherwise known as a dirty war of terrorism), on the Russian Federation directly after February 2022 when Russia was provoked to directly pre-empt a NATO-trained new Ukrainian Army from starting an offensive to kill and ethnically cleanse Eastern Ukraine of its predominantly Russian speaking citizens, considered subhumans by the fascist Ukrainian, Zelensky-puppet regime. Thus beginning what I have foreseen as the end of a shorter Second Cold War (2014-2022) and launching what has spread and grown as a Third World War in its current “conventional” phase, pitting the hegemonically declining US and its Western allies and vassals pursuing a world economic and military conflict with basically the rest of the human race that isn’t West oriented anymore.

There was a time when BBC and American news outlets showed and even documented Ukraine’s “Nazi problem.” But they suppressed all of that and I’ve been shadow banned on Facebook for showing that truth early in 2014, when by 2022, such men as these provoked Russia to save Russian speaking Ukrainians from eight years of massacres and ethnic cleansing. I will never let you forget this fundamental reality that is the Satanic darkness that has demonically possessed the nation of Ukraine. I’ve risked my life for it. No Nazis in Ukraine?

Three days into the new year, working on this and other articles for this Report, it is clear to me that although Putin and his diplomats will continue to keep the negotiation motions going, they know, from this drone attack, from this clear manipulation of the US President, willing or unwilling, it doesn’t matter. They now know that the US leadership cannot be trusted. They know that US treaty agreements cannot be trusted. They’ve now seen how the US dark forces overshadowing its government cannot be trusted. Trump’s word cannot be trusted.
They now confront the pattern of US behavior, like in Iran. Sweet talk, and negotiating has lured the Iranian leadership and even murdered the Iranian diplomatic team through CIA and US helping Israel’s Zionist regime. So often it has happened, with the leaders of Hamas in Palestine, with the leaders of Hezbollah in Lebanon, a simple, terrible result, open to them, negotiate with them, and they kill your diplomats, assassinating them, they decapitate Hezbollah’s leadership. To negotiate with Israel “or” with the United States leadership of this era, is a trap—a death trap for leaders and their people. They negotiate with you Vladimir Putin, catch you off guard in your country residence and let death reach out and take you with swarms of drones.
Also not to be trusted are the pro-war European leaders, in UK, France, Germany and the EU. There open and collective message, that with or without the United States fully involved—indeed hoping they can drag the US into full involvement—these Euro-peon fools running Europe, like van Der Leyen heading the EU, Kaja Kalas, its Estonian bubble-headed EU foreign minister, President Macron of France, Keir Starmer of Britain, Marke Rutte, the generally mediocre General Secretary of NATO, probably its last Secretary, are preparing—with little means or money to achieve it, but full speed a-dread! Order a military buildup that can’t happen, but don’t let that stop the mediocre who have no sense of limitations. Let’s plan to be at war with Russia by 2028.
Putin in the strongest terms ever delivered by this measured man, calmly but firmly replied that Russia is ready for war with Europe if they start it. Russia won’t start one, but if the Europeans attack Russia, he made it coldly clear that Russia has the means to retaliate with full force upon Europe.
Its military industries are already tooling up their massive production powers in preparation for it. The Russian army is calling up reservists in 2026 adding to the daily surge of thousands of volunteers per day since the end of 2022, to expand their drone operator units, maintenance and fly their air force and crew their massive arsenal of defensive missiles, both ballistic and hypersonic to swell the Russian army by 2028 to over two million men for Russia’s defense. If Europe starts it in 2028, Russia will be casting aloft tens of thousands of attack drones per day across Europe, and a seemingly unending reserve of thousands of hypersonic missiles.
If Europe strikes Russia, it has the means to destroy Europe’s industries and remaining military hardware and soldiers that it hasn’t seen destroyed inside of Ukraine already, since 2022.
Russia if attacked can obliterate European political leadership and destroy what’s left of European arms and arms industries with weapons that are as powerful in what damage they can do without expelling any nuclear radiation, such as the kinetic hypersonic missiles systems like the Oreshniks or Avangard systems that each can fly in minutes to hit targets across Europe at the speed of MACH 10 or MACH 29, that’s 10 times or 29 times the speed of sound, respectively.
We have already seen a demonstration on 21 November 2024 as to what overwhelming, non-nuclear kinetic force can muster. Russia can do same with its Kinzhal (dagger) missiles that it has in the hundreds if not thousands. Imagine the unthinkable if you Euro-peon leaders are stupid enough to consider starting a war against Russia in 2028. Hit Russia and all at once NATO airfields across Europe, MI6 Headquarters in London, all military and bunkered HQs and command and control centers will be dug up by Oreshnik or Kinjal (dagger) missiles in an infernal demonstration of Moscow’s deadly reach across the length and breadth of European NATO nations in 12 to 22 minutes without even a single tactical nuclear warhead used—all conventional.
Putin finished his sobering warning to Europeon leaders, saying that if they choose war over negotiation with Russia, soon there would be no one in European leadership “left to negotiate with.”

Timing out the flight path of an Oreshnik hypersonic kinetic warhead if fired from Kapustin Yar missile testing base if Russia decides to hit NATO nations who aided the Ukrainians with technological and satellite support to assassinate the Russian President, if they so wish.
I’m reminded not long ago while watching a great source, Mark Sleboda in Russia, remind all of us that Russia holds the cards of escalation, no one else. Or, as Mark described it, as I recall, that Russia has kind of been put in its own box, diplomatically boxed into an American negotiation that just keeps going in circles, but “Okay.”
They can use that to their advantage.
They keep slowly grinding and grinding down Ukraine’s army stuck in their chosen strategy of fighting this war of attrition, with no big arrow offensives that so many in the West wants them to do, or what a lot of Russians on the street want their leaders to do, move beyond the “Special Military Operation” mode since 2022, declare war on Ukraine and conventionally take it down like Nazi Germany ended up in 1945, the last time Europeans were foolish enough to allow Nazis to run a European nation down to ruins.
Moscow will keep itself and its escalations safe inside the Ukrainian box. One of these days, maybe it happens in 2026, maybe later, the Oreshnik Intermediate range hypersonic missile will be used to help the West and Ukraine wake up and smell the ashes remaining of the US/MI6 headquarters in Kiev inside the CIA rebuilds of the SBU and GUR intelligence agencies.

The moment may come in 2026 through 2028 that I’ve been warning about off and on since the end of 2022 in my HogueProphecy Reports on the NATO/Ukrainian-Proxy war: a need for demonstrating what immense “conventional” power and devastation can be doled out by the Russians on Ukraine “and” European arms that are not “nuclear,” that does not have any dangers of radioactive fallout but can match the damage done by nuclear warheads through kinetic energy alone.
I think it is safe to say that at any moment, the CIA or the European leaders are stupid enough to provoke an open war with Russia, that a demonstration of kinetic Russian might could obliterate whatever CIA bases out of the 24 in Ukraine are still standing or have not been occupied by the Russians in the war.
Britain has A LOT of intelligence operatives and bases in Ukraine. A whole lot of British Intelligence officers are going to be rendered into ash any moment from now, in their hideouts and holes, their bunkers guiding drones on land, air and sea against Russian targets across Russian Ukrainian occupied Ukraine and throughout the Black Sea.
I can imagine that after the many hundreds of French special forces who have died already in this war from missiles strikes, there will be hundreds, maybe thousands more joining their fellows in death, with the circumstances officially hushed, their families paid off to keep silent about the real cause of death, not being falling down in the shower or bumping their head in a ski accident on holiday, etc. In this NATO proxy war in Ukraine against the Russians, NATO soldiers “HAVE” been and will be dying by the thousands since 2022. At least 15,000 Polish soldiers—entire brigades of the Polish Army even—entered Ukraine, gone “mercenary” as a unit, masquerading as Ukrainian uniformed soldiers, many never to return.
Hundreds of American and British regulars too have died in Ukraine. Add to them a whole lot of “off duty” NATO officers and specialists, dug out and obliterated by the sharp, and hypersonic snout of Kinjal missiles, drilling a few hundred feet through Ukrainian earth to flashfire, and bite out of existence, entire NATO-manned command centers in Western Ukraine and near Kiev, farther east.
The Russians “could” yet do a lot of things that are “non diplomatic” as the spokeswoman for the Office of the Russian President Maria Zhakarova warned as a consequence of the drone swarm assassination attempt on the Russian president on 28-29 December, and much more later, if Western Stupid is in charge to escalate in Ukraine.
Will the lights of Ukraine’s mortally wounded power grid go out for the rest of the winter left in 2026, in one night? It may be about to happen.
I have a lot of really good Ukrainian bloggers I watch to see how life is going on under all the bombing and blasting of the grid. These, by the way, are not pro-Russian at all, some of my contacts appear to be even Banderite fascists. But they help me understand what is happening inside Kiev and Kharkov during the Russian air raids.
My very anti-Russian Ukrainian sources keep reporting the nightly death tolls, and though the loss of any life is a tragedy, it has not yet reached the death toll level that provoked Stalin’s infamous but accurate comment, when he said, “The loss of one life is a tragedy, the loss of one million lives is merely a statistic.”
The Russians in their “Special Military Option” are very careful as they can be not to be killing hundreds and even thousands of Ukrainian civilians every night and day in their air raids across Ukraine because they are not waging Total War since this war began.
The Ukrainians are reporting across Kiev maybe two dead civilians this night, six dead that night. I’m glad so few Ukrainian civilians are being killed or injured. But I worry that Russian military escalation is inevitable. Ukraine will sometime soon see its lights completely blackened out in retaliation, mainly in the cold and brutal calculation of warfare, the argument being that lights, heaters, and water line will then be out for the rest of winter of 2026 might pressure a collapse of the Ukrainian Nazi run Zelensky Puppet regime. Taking out the power grid could end the war sooner than letting it linger killing and crippling another half million Ukrainian soldiers to be lost in this new year if not more than a million. The greatest death and injury levels come in the final act of every great war.
Over the last 1.5 years I’ve considered the potential that the Russians, in one night could take down all its bridges across the Dnieper River, stranding most of the Ukrainian Army trapped on the Russian side cut off from all logistic sources, quickly running out of supplies. The Russians are already tearing down brick-by-cement block two key bridges in Odessa, one of which brings out of Romania into Ukraine 60 percent of its fuel from NATO to fight its war “to the last Ukrainian.”
The Dnieper bridges are all of Soviet construction, so solid that they could resist a nuclear war still standing. But the Russians have found a middle way strategy, they daily and nightly strike certain Ukrainian bridges connecting to Romania with drones, making dents, sometimes holes, a lot of times choking the bridges with flaming supply trucks. The bridges along the Dnieper, I foresee, will still be standing, battered but constantly playing havoc on the auto and truck-carrying supply all the same.
The bridges will stay standing, unless the Ukrainians blow them up themselves when the Russians are there to cross them. Russian forces are already in the outlying southern suburbs of Zaporizhzhia City. By spring Russian forces overwhelming the Ukrainian defenses in the east, will join them through their rapid advance rolling up the Ukrainian line all the way to Zaporizhzhia City. If that ethnic Russian, Ukrainian city along with the Russian city and province, both named Odessa, far in the west, will later be “liberated” from the Fascist Ukrainian regime, then Zaporizhzhia City and its bridges will become a major bridgehead to cross the Dnieper, far enough north of estuaries shrinking into smaller rivers to bridge them and to achieve taking Odessa as it has always been done, not from the sea but from the mainland north.

UPDATE!
Russian Ministry of Defense Reports: Russia Responds to “Terrorist Attacks” by Kiev
[UPDATE 8 January 2026:]

Screenshot from CCTV footage shows Russian Oreshnik strike in Ukraine. © Social-media (8 January 2026).
Russia launched an Oreshnik right across the length and breadth of Ukraine, from the Kapustin Yar missile testing base missile over 1,500 miles to the east in far off Central Russian Stepps! It obliterated one of the largest underground natural gas storage tank systems in Europe in extreme Western Ukraine, just miles from the Polish Border wiping out 50 percent of Ukraine’s entire natural gas reserve and 30 percent of Europe’s natural gas reserve Just as Europe and especially Ukraine descend into deep winter temperatures as low as -30 degrees Celsius! See the Videos of the Oreshnik munitions hitting the target. They seem to have roared in a lot faster than in Dnipro in November 2024. Fast as lightning, maybe MACH 15! SEE VIDEO HERE.
RT Reported on 9 January, “The overnight bombardment was carried out in response to an attempted terrorist attack by the Kiev regime on the residence of Russian President Vladimir Putin in Novgorod Region, the ministry said in a statement on Friday.” You may note in this article written a week earlier, that an Oreshnik was likely to be used in retaliation for that assassination attempt by Ukraine against the Russian President. Now back to this article and what I wrote on 02 January 2026.]…

MEET VLODOYMYR ZELENSKY’S CIA REPLACEMENT
As the Next “Strong Man” of Ukraine
Trump doesn’t have the Sun-square-Neptune affliction in his birth chart like GW Bush and Obama had. It is in relationship with the United States of America, its Constitution of laws, its Bill of Rights, and its people.
Therefore, his powerful, self-defining, Sun/Uranus/True North conjunction is instead squared Neptune in the US Birth Chart!
It isn’t creating an individual struggle with his gut; it is a relationship hurdle between a president and his people that are both having a real hard and rocky time of matching promises made by President Trump with realities.
He—call him “the husband” president.
She—the American people, as his “lover/wife.”
Look at all the things he promised his “wife,” Mrs. MAGA America, that he betrayed!
America first, became Israel first.
No more foreign wars have him tangled in potential wars with Venezuela, Russia, Iran, bombing terrorists in Nigeria. A few of these could go nuclear.
A political “Divorce” is in his future, by this new year’s end when the mid-term elections arrive. He has brutally rejected his most ardent supporters in MAGA, including all the Gen-Z Democrats that voted for him…
Trump’s biggest astrological vulnerability that could rapidly bring his downfall is “how” Neptune in Virgo in the US birth chart squares his Sun. He will dramatically lose support of the American people if he falsely proclaims “again” as he did in his last term, that an economic boom is coming.
Neptune in Virgo’s oversees either with discernment (when harmoniously trine) or is in denial (when squared) the United States of America’s Boom/Bust economic cycles…

THE HOGUEPROPHECY CLOWN SHOW REPORT
From Monroe Doctrine to Don-Roe Doctrine in Venezuela
This time around, the CIA “didn’t” destroy Maduro, his inner circle, or cast Venezuela’s government and civil servants into the streets ready to take up arms as the painfully unemployed. Trump did not destroy and disband the Venezuelan armed forces. He put up an invasion show, kidnapped the president of Venezuela and his wife and left no one on the ground to run the regime his way. Everything’s left in place as before, so… What happens next…?

America Will Buy Greenland for a Token Few Billion Bucks in the Next Two Months!
(11 January 2026)…
I’ve been predicting this would happen for a while now. Here’s some examples:
In this excerpt from the third article I predicted that Trump 2.0 will utilize “the Monroe Doctrine on steroids down the next four years. The United States’ sphere of influence would be North and South America plus Greenland. (From Opening caption, HP-Report (On 9 January 2025)
Trump in Mar-a-Lago might just get his way, his Greenlander “Mar-a-Igloo.” (HP-Report: The “Shape” of His Dreams to Come, HP-Report (On 07 January 2025)
Now, let’s consider Greenland. Trump is not joking. (From AA, HP-Report (Ibid. 07January 2025)…

READ ABOUT THOSE SEERS WHO ALONG WITH JOHN HOGUE
Documented Many of Their Visions of the 9/11 Attack Starting Decades Before It Happened!
Many people around the world foresaw “9/11”—the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001—not a day, week, or even months, but many years before it happened. In one man’s case, the sixteenth-century seer Michel de Nostradamus, he may have seen the great collapse of the twin towers he called “the hollow mountains” over 470 years before it happened!
There are cynics playing skeptical inquirers who boldly proclaim without reading the prophecies of Nostradamus that he didn’t see 9/11 coming, and, if his interpreters ever had discovered in his books signs of the attack and didn’t warn the world the day before it happened, then their inaction is the “textbook definition of evil.” Moreover, they “should be brought up for trial.”
This book answers that challenge and brings interpreters up for trial by facts…
