This is my boy Tucker ! he's 1 year old. if I'm ever stressed out or getting too in my own head about stuff he reminds me to chill out. I have to admit to you guys I'm no Ceaser dog whisper. I'm not like one of those guys who's got total control over my dog and I snap my fingers and he's doing cartwheels, I wish I were better at it. I should probably watch some more youtube videos on how to tame your dog. I mean, I do keep him disciplined so he's not a total ass but I've got to get better who keeping him in line. anyway I wanted to share Tucker with you since he's a pretty huge part of my life!

also I did a video on the Navy SEAL raid North Korea that went horribly wrong: https://youtu.be/AcjXPae3Mhw

Life update my little girl is 2 months old and starting to smile and see the world. it's wild. It's crazy how babies bring people together and light up everyone's world around you. She's brought entirely new meaning to my life. seeing her each morning is like that feeling you got on Christmas eve when you knew there were presents waiting for you under the Christmas tree and you got excited and couldn't sleep. actually the analogy is perfect because she doesn't let us sleep lol. anyway, I'm just so stupid proud I needed to share.

Hey I guys I hear your feedback and I agree with your constructive criticism about the last episode. I connected with ‪@willyOAM‬ an outstanding military analyst, Afghanistan veteran and war correspondent to get a more full picture of Russian strategy. I'm going to create an updated video that gives more weight and consideration to the goals of an attrition war.

I'm going to go more in depth on how Russian forces do not need to advance far they just are trying to bleed Ukraine dry, they're trying to kill enough people that the front collapses.

I still stand on business about everything I said, nothing was factually incorrect but I do feel there were some important aspects I left out.

My intention with the video was to talk about how even Russia captured all the way to the Dnipro it would still be a failure based on how many soldiers and equipment they are losing and that their tactics are inefficient even if they continue advancing. I used the word "breakthrough" instead of "collapse" and that distinction is actually a big difference and wasn't effective communicating on my part!

but I'm human and sometimes I communicate poorly and miss things. That's what I love about Youtube though is I can connect with someone all the way around the world who knows things I do not and I can learn and get a better understanding of what's really happening, which has always been my goal with this channel. much love guys.

I posted a personal video about an Apache air strike that was executed next to our patrol base in 2009. I don't often do episodes about the Cappy lore but I think it's important to give an idea of my background and some of the events that have informed how I see the world. I picked this engagement because it's a perfect example of how the 6 steps of the linear kill chain operates from finding to engaging. my tour was mostly boring during the occupation phase of the war but even then violence was occurring.

The best part about doing this episode is I got to connect with two of my old teammates from my deployment our platoon medic Doc Martinez and 3rd squad leader SSG Dufresne. I think a lot of guys who are in know sometimes it can go too long before we check in with our buddies and just catch up on how much has changed in each others lives, successes failures. I was happy to learn they'd both retired and doing really well. Reminiscing about the old days is like the best kinda feeling. Im a sucker for nostalgia and easily have rose colored glasses so I look back on those days and think they werent so bad even though I hated it at the time. now I miss those days.

If there's someone in your life an old friend , squad mate , relative that you know would do well from a phone call use this as an excuse to text or call them! just say hi and say you were thinking about whatever time , ya kno?

much love

This whole town behind me in this picture in Kursk is now in Russian control. Many of the safe houses of the Ukrainian units in Sumy that I visited are now under Russian control. It's surreal to think about. A number of the soldiers I spent time with and interviewed during my reporting are also killed in action or missing. I will talk about that more soon but I'm still thinking about it all. When I think back on it, it feels like it happened to someone else.

I saw at least 2 gigantic trench lines and defensive fortifications built up between where the Russians currently are and where the city of Sumy is. I won't speak to exacts about it but I remember thinking wow I can't believe they're building all these defensive lines this far back. I think they understood it was going to come to that soon, even back in November 2024....

There were more trench lines that confused me even more new defensive pillboxes deep in the interior of the country closer to like halfway to Kyiv, like they were creating Plan B, Plan C and EFG. This isn't giving anything away it's all visible from the sky and some of them are plainly visible from roads, no opsec secrets here.

Interesting that the US appears to be doubling down on aid to Ukraine now once more. 17 patriot batteries is NUTS if it ends up being that many. that could effectivly basically close the sky. we're talking like 1/3 the entire amount that even the US has. they'd be coming from multiple different countries of course .

10 billion bucks for defensive systems for Ukraine. It'll be interesting to see if the whitehouse can get a peace deal in the next 2 months or if they make good and go double down on tariffs against Russia's trading partners. that would be a crazy option, could see the war really start to involve a lot of players at the point including China who would be hit with punishment for buying Russian oil.

It all happened so fast, observing the war, coming back, starting my own company, having a child, now learning to care for the baby and be a good dad. I've barely had time to process it all.

Anyway, just wanted to get some thoughts off my mind, dump them here so I dont have to hold on to them.

if you're interested new video is live about the US-Mexico partnership to kill cartel bosses. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Guakw...

My other baby Tucker says hello ! He's been a good boy not barking when the baby cry's , he's been a guard dog for her. babies everywhere I haven't slept in a week and I might be delirious at this point but there has never been more exciting times ! This seems like a good natural transition to letting you know we did an episode where I interviewed a CIA paramilitary officer about covert action in this new episode: https://youtu.be/x7ISjkXwcI0 really proud of this one we cover a bunch about how this secret army operates and some of their most wild missions.

Already she is making people light up when she's in the room. : D the last few days have been a blur already I feel like time is going by ten times faster. It's been overwhelming but I wanted to share this with you guys because we owe everything we have to you all and this is great reason to celebrate.

second announcement is that my buddy Patrick and I are starting a podcast called Simple Sabotage and the first episode is live now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR2g2...

we chat a bit about Iran, about the CIA and about fatherhood too haha so a mix of things really you can check it out here , I'm hoping the podcast can be weekly and can give me a chance to show a little more of who I am as a person, personally, like who me is. that kinda thing.

Anyway, here I go , going back to not sleeping while working on the Iran update video for the next 36 hours straight. we should have that update out by Tuesday
