Important Editor’s Note: The risk of crying wolf is always there when rumors are reported. We’ve been hearing that Vladimir Putin has been on his death bed on and off for three years. Over the last few months, the rumors have ramped up. Under normal circumstances, I ignore those rumors. This one seems to be the most credible yet. Nevertheless, I’ve avoided publishing the “Putin’s dying” rumor for a very, very long time. The only reason I’m printing this one is because it not only expresses the rumor from an inside source, but also gives a truthful understanding of the consequences should it happen. As Michael Snyder notes, Putin’s death at a time of war would likely yield MORE aggressive military leadership from the Kremlin. Here’s Michael‘s commentary…
Will Vladimir Putin launch the largest military operation that the world has seen in decades in a desperate attempt to win the war in Ukraine before he dies? And if Russia does conduct such an offensive, how will the U.S. and Ukraine’s other western allies respond? U.S. financial support for Ukraine “is now approaching $100 billion”, and it does not seem likely that our leaders in Washington will just throw their hands in the air and give up after having invested so much in this war.
Our politicians have repeatedly told us that “we are in it to win it”, and so a Russian victory in Ukraine cannot be permitted under any circumstances. But if both sides just keep escalating matters, it won’t be too long before we find ourselves on the brink of a nuclear conflict.
According to the Daily Mail, the head of military intelligence in Ukraine believes that Vladimir Putin “is terminally ill with cancer”…
Vladimir Putin is terminally ill with cancer and will die very soon, Ukraine’s military intelligence head has claimed.
Kyrylo Budanov, without providing evidence, said he knows the Russian despot’s death is imminent due to an ongoing illness from cancer.
When asked how soon Putin might die, Budanov stated that he thinks that it will come “very fast”…
Asked when he thinks Putin’s death will come, Budanov said that he thought it would be very soon.
‘I think very fast. I hope.’
Speculation about Putin’s health has been ongoing for several years. The 70-year-old Russian leader has been rumoured to be suffering from cancer, Parkinson’s Disease and numerous other ailments.
Reading that article really got my attention, because I have an entire chapter in my new book that is dedicated to talking about Vladimir Putin’s coming death.
Right now, Putin is surrounded by officials that are even more hawkish than he is.
Many in the western world will greatly rejoice when Putin dies, but the truth is that whoever replaces Putin will almost certainly be less inclined to engage in peace talks.
If our leaders were wise, they would be pushing for peace talks with Russia while Putin is still around.
Unfortunately, that isn’t going to happen.
At this point, the Russians realize that this war is going to drag on and on until someone makes a really big move to end it. In recent weeks the Russians have been mobilizing large numbers of troops and vast amounts of military equipment in Belarus. Joint military exercises are being conducted, and many are concerned that the stage is being set for something really big…
Russia and Belarus have expanded their joint military training exercises in Belarus, the country’s defence TV channel said on Sunday, as concern grows that Moscow is pressuring its closest ally to join the war in Ukraine.
The two countries added weapons, soldiers and specialised equipment to the exercises and were doing drills drawing on Russian experience in Ukraine, Reuters reported.
On Friday the Belarusian leader, Alexander Lukashenko, visited a military base where Russian troops are stationed to meet troops and discuss the joint military drills.
In fact, Reuters recently suggested that the Russians could soon “launch a new ground invasion of Ukraine from the north”…
Russia and Belarus have beefed up their joint military grouping in Belarus with weapons, soldiers and specialised equipment, and plan to hold joint aviation drills, the Belarusian Defence Ministry said on Thursday.
Ukraine has repeatedly warned that President Vladimir Putin may try to use Belarus to launch a new ground invasion of Ukraine from the north, a step that would open a major new front in the war.
If the Russians do conduct such an invasion, it won’t be with a limited number of troops like we saw at the beginning of the war.
Back then, the Russians intended to force the Ukrainians to the negotiating table, and obviously that did not work. If the Russians decide to pull the trigger on another invasion, this time it will be a hammer blow of overwhelming force.
Hundreds of thousands of Russian troops would come pouring in from the north, and I believe that they would attempt to completely cut off the flow of arms and mercenaries from Ukraine’s western allies.
Now that the ground in Ukraine is freezing, the next couple of months would provide an ideal time for a major new Russian offensive.
We will just have to wait and see whether it actually happens or not.
But what we do know is that social media is filled with videos of Russian tanks and military vehicles being shipped into Belarus by train.
https://twitter.com/markito0171/status/1611002819619725314
The forces being gathered are much larger than the forces that Russia deployed during the initial invasion of Ukraine.
And it is being reported that Russia and Belarus will be holding “joint tactical air force exercises” from January 16th to February 1st…
Russia and Belarus will conducted joint tactical air force exercises from Jan. 16 to Feb. 1, Belarusian officials announced. Belarus has been Russia closest ally since the Ukraine invasion more than 10 months ago.
Could such exercises actually be used as cover for something else?
That is something to think about.
And if Putin does make a massive move to try to end the war, what will the U.S. do in response?
We are getting into very dangerous territory.
As Gerald Celente has warned, the longer the war in Ukraine lasts the more likely it is that it will result in a nuclear conflict…
Gerald Celente has said for months that contrary to reports that the U.S. is in a “proxy” war with Russia, Washington is currently at war with the Kremlin. He said it will only become “official” after the first nuclear flash or a disastrous false flag event.
Weeks before the first Russian tank rolled into Ukraine, Biden brushed off the idea that U.S. troops would get involved in the conflict and went as far as to say they would not even assist in evacuations. He said flatly that an American presence could spark a world war.
The longer the war lasts, the higher the probability is that it will produce a nuclear exchange.
Our leaders should have tried to find a peaceful way out of this mess while it was still possible.
Now Putin appears to be getting ready to push all of his chips into the middle of the table, and James Rickards has aptly observed that “we seem to be sleepwalking into a nuclear confrontation unless we wake up”…
The great danger could arise if the U.S. foolishly continues escalation to the bitter end in order to stave off a Ukrainian defeat. I’m not predicting it’ll happen, but things could escalate to the point where tactical nuclear weapons are employed out of desperation. From that point, it’s a short step toward the broader use of strategic nuclear weapons.
Again, I’m not specifically predicting that will happen. But it is a realistic possibility based on the logic of escalation, and we seem to be sleepwalking into a nuclear confrontation unless we wake up.
Will we?
Very well said.
Will we wake up in time?
I truly hope so, because the alternative is unimaginable.

Three Reasons a Coffee Gift Set From This Christian Company Is Perfect for Christmas
When you’re searching for a Christmas gift that’s meaningful, useful, and rooted in faith, you don’t want to settle for anything generic. This season is filled with noise — mass-produced products, last-minute picks, and trends that fade as quickly as they appear. But one gift stands apart because it blends genuine quality with a message that matters: a coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee.
This small Christian-owned company has become a favorite among believers who want to support faith-driven businesses while giving friends and family something they’ll actually enjoy. Here are three reasons a Promised Grounds Coffee gift set may be the most thoughtful and impactful present you give this year.
1. It’s Truly Delicious Coffee
Too many “gift-worthy” coffees look beautiful in the package but disappoint when the cup is poured. Promised Grounds takes the opposite approach — exceptional taste first, thoughtful presentation second.
Their beans are sourced with care, roasted in small batches, and crafted to bring out a rich, smooth flavor profile that appeals to both casual drinkers and true coffee lovers. Whether someone enjoys bold, dark roasts or lighter, more delicate blends, every sip reflects quality that stands shoulder-to-shoulder with the biggest specialty brands.
Simply put: this coffee is good. Really good. Some say it’s absolutely fantastic. If you want a gift that won’t be re-gifted, ignored, or shoved in a cabinet, this is it.
2. It Spreads the Word While Serving a Real Purpose
There are many Christian gifts that are meaningful… but not exactly practical. There are also useful gifts that have nothing to do with faith. Promised Grounds Coffee bridges both worlds beautifully.
Each gift set delivers an encouraging, faith-centered message through its packaging and presentation — a simple but powerful reminder of God’s goodness during the Christmas season. The cups are especially popular and serve as a daily reminder of the blessings from our Lord. At the same time, the product itself is something people will actually use and appreciate every single day.
It’s a gift that uplifts the spirit and fills the mug. A gift that points loved ones toward Scripture while still being part of the normal rhythm of life. And in a culture that increasingly pushes faith to the margins, giving a gift that quietly but confidently honors Christ can make a deeper impact than you might expect.
3. It’s Affordable, Valuable, and Elegantly Presented
Many people want to give something meaningful without breaking their Christmas budget. Promised Grounds Coffee strikes that perfect balance — the sets look and feel premium, but the price remains accessible.
The packaging is classy, clean, and gift-ready, making it ideal for:
- Family members of all ages
- Co-workers or employees
- Church friends or small-group leaders
- Hosts, neighbors, and last-minute gift needs
It’s the kind of gift that feels more expensive than it is — and more thoughtful than most of what you’ll find on store shelves.
The Perfect Blend of Faith, Flavor, and Christmas Cheer
A coffee gift set from Promised Grounds Coffee checks every box: a gift that tastes amazing, conveys your faith, supports a Christian business, and brings daily enjoyment to the person who receives it. In a season when so many gifts are forgotten, this one stands out for all the right reasons.
If you want a Christmas present that reflects your values and delivers genuine joy, Promised Grounds Coffee is the perfect place to start.
Are you kidding me? Why do you publish this guy’s BS, he’s PATHETIC.
If you are not a troll, perhaps you could be a bit more specific as to what he said that is inaccurate and why? Any troll can post invectives and call names. The U.S. involvement and expenditures in Ukraine are quite dangerous and destructive. Have a listen to Douglas MacGregor for some frightening but creditble analysis of what is happening in this conflict and the wider repercussions for the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMkDWoliLto This is a disaster that appears to be consistent with the various other policies of the current administration that are destroying our country.
If you want to read his CRAP be my guest.
click bait BS!
Will Joebama try to annex Russia as part of the USA? Otherwise, what is all the $$$BBB going for there?
Short answer : “Zelensky wants more money”.
Youthful blood transfusions go a long way. Don’t count Putin Out just yet.
I stand with Russia and her people in their war against US and NATO aggression.
LOL
First, Is Putin dying soon? Probably not. Second, Michael Snyder writes like a 6 year old. He writes a few sentences and then steals a few paragraphs from real news sources. Then, he does the same over and over until he has a few thousand words. Then, he always plugs his books at the end which are more of the same rehashed news taken from other sources. I’m an 80 year old Christian American combat vet who peruses many news sites daily like Steve Quayle, RT & Brighteon and never do I see a single item in Michael Snyder’s articles that is original. Snyder is not a bad guy, just another guy seeking fame and book sales without accompanying research and avoiding plagiarism.
Propaganda with no basis in reality.
Putin is demonstrably a murderous thug. He kills political opponents, journalists, critics, and anyone who dares oppose him. Proven fact. He went from a “public servant” to arguably the world’s richest person. Corrupt? He owns forty dachas (mansions). Has more than forty private aircraft. How? He stole it! He invaded Georgia. He took Crimea by force. Now he invades Ukraine. His excuse? He must protect Russian heritage people from being abused by Nazis! Rich. He’s using Hitler’s playbook! Hitler invaded his neighbors using the excuse that he needed to protect traditionally German people from the Communists! Started WWII. Putin seems intent on WWIII. And, people proudly express support for this monster. Just like they did for Hitler in the 1930’s.
And who told you all that? The same people who told you to take the vax?
Open a history book. Don’t be so naïve.
Hahahaha, yer BULL is in over drive!
How hard would it be for Putin to drive west instead of south from Belarus?
Chicken Little until . . . ?
ChikenLittle until . . . ?
There are no anti-LIBtardians land plots to be found on the East and West Coasts of the United States. These locations are fiercely noted to be DNC LIBtardian management…. Marxists, and Communists of the “We are going to vote it so, and we count the votes.” (This is Communism… not a Democratic outcome).
We have seen the so-called ‘RUSSIA! RUSSIA! RUSSIA!’ outcome played out to the end, and now there is this pushed NUCLEAR FEAR. Let’s be clearer.. it forces both political camps to HATE each other on the Public level while the managers of the HATE reside in their swamp nest as Swamp Monster friends.
Nuclear war is winnable… only the Leftardians/LIBtardians think otherwise. We will bury the Communists, and THEY will delete the Godless Satanist LIBtardians…this is a GREAT OUTCOME awaiting us.
