Russian Elite Drone Squad ‘Rubicon’ Is Now Chasing and Destroying Ukraine’s HIMARS Artillery Systems, Both Near the Frontline and in the Rear Areas (VIDEOS)

Published

‘Rubicon’ drone squad has started to chase and destroy Ukrainian artillery systems like the US-supplied HIMARS.

Now in its fourth year, the Russia-Ukraine conflict has unleashed upon the world the ‘drone wars’, where these small flying craft have reorganized how high-intensity wars are fought.

In the context of a peer-to-peer conflict with heavy equipment and fortified strongholds, it becomes not a war of movement, but a war of attrition, in which each side wants to destroy the other’s capabilities.

That’s where the drones enter – from the Russian ‘Geraniums’ (Shahed) to the Ukrainian Baba-Yaga, to the myriads of quadcopters used by both sides.

The drones offer a solution costing thousands or tens of thousands – and is capable of destroying tanks, armored vehicles, and other pieces of equipment that cost in a multi-million-dollar range.

While Kiev had the upper hand on this technology in the beginning of the war, this has long since changed, with Moscow’s output now larger than all the western powers combined.

And the tactics have also changed, as an elite Russian drone is making a difference in this phase of the war, and has now seen destroying the valuable HIMARS artillery systems that Ukraine relies on so much.

The Telegraph reported:

“The attack was reportedly carried out by Rubicon, the Kremlin’s elite drone warfare unit that Ukrainian soldiers have come to fear. Previously deployed earlier this year during Russia’s brutal campaign to recapture the eastern town of Kursk, Rubicon has now been redirected to hunt Ukraine’s most valuable battlefield assets: its US-supplied long-range missiles. There are signs it is succeeding.”

The Joe Biden regime sent no less than 40 of these systems.

The advantage of the HIMARS is sitting ‘deep behind the front line’. But now, as we’ve learned, no place in the rear in ‘safe’ anymore.

“Because of their importance, it is unusual for a Himars launcher to be placed just 10km from the front line. The one that was destroyed near the war-torn town of Chasov Yar was therefore probably being used to hit a target deep behind enemy lines.

The Telegraph report counts at least four HIMARS destroyed so far.

And the latest technology employed by Russian drone squads is a real threat to Kiev.

“Unlike previous losses, which mostly resulted from missile or artillery strikes, the latest attack on one of the systems was reportedly carried out by a first-person view (FPV) drone using a fiber-optic guidance cable – a sophisticated and largely jam-proof design that signals a dangerous shift in the conflict. Traditional FPV drones are vulnerable to Ukraine’s electronic warfare systems, which jam incoming frequencies and render them blind mid-flight. But fiber-optic drones are physically tethered to their operators via ultra-thin cables that transmit real-time video and guidance signals.”

The Russian fiber-optic drones are at this point basically impossible to jam.

The ‘Rubicon’ squad was established back in October 2024 by orders of Russia’s new defense minister, Andrei Belousov – a civilian.

“Its drone pilots now operate in at least seven specialist detachments across eastern Ukraine, carrying out complex, decentralized missions. The unit’s tactics are equally modern. During the Kursk offensive, Rubicon drones reportedly struck short segments of road – just 100 to 300 meters long – from multiple angles at once, catching convoys in lethal ambushes.”

RFK Jr. Drops a Mega Bombshell on mRNA Vaccine Technology (VIDEO)

Published

By

This article originally appeared on vigilantfox.com and was republished with permission.

In a move that many were hoping for but were not expecting, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy just announced that BARDA will be CANCELING 22 mRNA vaccine development contracts, saving taxpayers about $500 million in the process.

This move delivered a major blow to the biomedical industrial complex, which was hoping to make an mRNA vaccine for just about every disease imaginable.


https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/foxs-video-aug-5-2025-veed-3.mp4

The reason for this move is grounded in what happened during the COVID debacle, which Kennedy explained in detail.

First, he shared how “mRNA vaccines don’t perform well against viruses that infect the upper respiratory tract.”

“mRNA only codes for a small part of the viral proteins, usually a single antigen. One mutation, and the vaccine becomes INEFFECTIVE,” Kennedy said.

The next revelation was a big surprise.

Kennedy confirmed that the COVID shots could have CAUSED the mutations and EXTENDED the pandemic altogether.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/foxs-video-aug-5-2025-veed-3.mp4

He explained:

“The [mRNA] vaccine [platform] paradoxically encourages new mutations and can actually prolong pandemics. As the virus constantly mutates to escape the protective effects of the vaccine, millions of people, maybe even you or someone you know, caught the Omicron variant despite being vaccinated. That’s because a single mutation can make mRNA vaccines ineffective.”

Kennedy’s comments echo what vaccinologist Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche and the “conspiracy theorists” have been saying for the better part of four years now.

He warned, “You are generating a breeding ground for even more infectious variants to replicate” when you vaccinate DURING a pandemic.

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/video_2025-08-05_18-40-51.mp4

With the conclusion that mRNA shots are ineffective against respiratory viruses, prolong pandemics, and encourage mutations, Kennedy declared:

mRNA technology poses MORE risk than benefits for these respiratory viruses.”

As such, Kennedy announced that BARDA (Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority) will be CANCELING 22 mRNA vaccine contracts, saving taxpayers “just under $500 million” in the process.

He clarified that this isn’t a complete indictment of mRNA technology across the board, but when it comes to respiratory diseases, he believes it offers no benefit to humanity.

“That’s why we’re moving beyond the limitations of mRNA for respiratory viruses and investing in better solutions,” Kennedy said.

Thanks for reading! I hope this brought you the good news you needed today.

I was banned from Twitter 1.0 three times for sharing information that Kennedy just confirmed.

Like many others, I was labeled a “conspiracy theorist.” Turns out, we were right all along.

Marjorie Taylor Greene Unloads on the GOP, H1B Immigration, Foreign Aid to Ukraine, Israel

Published

By

Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene has publicly criticized President Donald Trump over immigration policy and foreign aid.

Greene responded to Trump’s tariff announcement on India by urging an end to H1-B visas that she claims replace American jobs. Greene also called for stopping funding and weapons to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia.

Greene stated that continued U.S. funding for Kiev betrays the majority of Americans who voted to end foreign wars.

She highlighted Trump’s 2024 election win as a mandate against such involvement. The congresswoman warned that supporting these policies risks losing younger voters permanently.

On the Israel-Gaza conflict, Greene described Israel’s actions as a “genocide” and condemned the starvation in Gaza. She became the first Republican lawmaker to use this term publicly.

Greene emphasized that innocent Palestinian lives, including children and Christians, should not be devalued compared to Israeli ones.

Greene expressed surprise that more conservative colleagues have not spoken out against U.S. support for Israel’s offensive operations.

She argued that funding such wars contradicts a biblical mandate and America’s interests.

The congresswoman clarified her support for Israel’s existence while opposing involvement in its conflicts.

Trump has acknowledged the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, noting visible starvation among children despite Netanyahu’s denials.

He mentioned his wife Melania’s distress over images from the region. This marks a softening in Trump’s stance amid ongoing hostilities nearing two years.

Greene’s positions reflect broader shifts in U.S. opinion, with approval of Israel’s Gaza actions dropping to 32 percent per Gallup polls.

Republicans under 50 now view Israel more negatively than positively, according to Pew surveys.

Figures like Steve Bannon and Tucker Carlson have also criticized Netanyahu’s government.

The congresswoman has voiced growing frustration with the Republican Party’s direction. She questioned whether the GOP is leaving her or if she no longer relates to it.

Greene stated she does not want involvement in the party’s current course on foreign policy and spending.

3Greene warned Trump about delivering on promises like Epstein file transparency to retain base support. She referenced past divergences, including on AI policy in Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill.” Despite these splits, Greene affirmed her commitment to America First principles.

Greene suggested her political future may not rely on party establishment backing. She expressed confidence in winning support from Georgia voters independently. However, the congresswoman indicated no plans for higher office in 2026.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott Files Emergency Petition with Supreme Court to REMOVE Democrat Ringleader Who Fled State to Obstruct Redistricting Vote

Published

State Rep. Gene Wu

Governor Greg Abbott has officially filed an emergency writ of quo warranto with the Texas Supreme Court, seeking the removal of far-left Democrat State Representative Gene Wu from office for abandoning his constitutional duties and fleeing the state in a premeditated scheme to block a GOP-led vote.

According to the explosive 70-page filing, Rep. Wu—Chair of the Texas House Democratic Caucus—was the ringleader of a carefully orchestrated plan that saw dozens of Democrat lawmakers hop aboard a 76-seat private jet, funded in part by Beto O’Rourke’s political action committee, to escape to Chicago rather than perform their duty during a constitutionally mandated special legislative session.

The petition alleges that Wu and his fellow Democrats deliberately broke quorum to sabotage redistricting reforms and kill flood relief, property tax relief, and school reform legislation, critical priorities for Texans.

“If representatives are free not to show up whenever they choose, then Texans simply do not have a representative government,” the petition reads.

“In fact, they don’t have a functioning government at all. This Court should make clear that a legislator who does not wish to perform his duties will be stripped of them.”

The petition reveals that Wu not only left the state, but actively solicited donations online to help cover fines and expenses—funding his absence with cash from liberal donors.

The document accuses him of potentially violating Texas bribery laws and the state constitution, citing provisions that require forfeiture of office if an official accepts anything of value to withhold their vote.

Wu posted pictures boarding the jet on X, while simultaneously asking followers to “Support Texas House Democrats as we deny quorum.” One image was immediately followed by a donation link.

According to the petition, Beto O’Rourke’s PAC offered to cover the cost of the trip and committed all future donations to lawmakers who fled the state.

The petition concludes:

This case is not a political dispute; it is a constitutional crisis. The current Special Session is set to expire in just two weeks. But Wu apparently has no intention of returning. Instead, he claims the “special session is over.” Permitting him to continue occupying his office so that he can abdicate the duties of that office will only enable future legislators to grind state government to a halt.

Perhaps these absent members expect—someday—to return to Texas and be hailed as heroes who “fought” by fleeing. But in the meantime, they are preventing the Texas Legislature, duly called by the Governor, from addressing the acute needs of Texans across the State.

Every day, their continued absence wastes taxpayer dollars and imperils urgent policy needs, ranging from improved flood response tools to the judicial omnibus bill governing the day-to-day workings of the state courts.

And, in the future, whenever the Governor adds an item on the special session agenda that they find offensive, they may feel empowered to once again flee the State and deny the Article III, Section 5 constitutional mandate. Absent quo warranto, there is no end in sight to this piracy.

The Constitution nowhere envisions Texans signing onto that kind of suicide pact. Legislators may, of course, disagree on specific pieces of legislation.

But our Constitution conceives of deliberation and debate as the official way to process official disagreements. That is why, in addition to laying out general principles for the order of business, the Constitution imposes mandatory duties on members to ensure they will be present to conduct business.

Representative government cannot function if elected officials may monetize their absence, abandon their obligations, and paralyze the Legislature without consequence.

The writ of quo warranto exists precisely to remedy such abuses. And there is still time for this Court to use it here. Ordering Wu’s removal from office would ensure that public office remains a trust exercised in good faith, as opposed to a platform for private gain and governmental sabotage.

It could also begin to make it easier to establish a quorum while the Special Session is still under way. Above all, however, it promises to restrain future abuses. Refusing to address the problem now may simply invite it to recur, always in the final days of a session.

The integrity of Texas’s constitutional order demands this Court’s urgent intervention, and Texas voters are counting on it.
