but everything will be alright if they get more money
“ONLY money from US taxpayers can stop it! Eurozone money us ineffective as a talisman!”
The sooner, the better!
A collapsing army. I seem to recall something similar earlier during the Brandon Installation.
Not our war.
Hurry it up so it will be Bidens fault
Maybe Ukraine shouldn’t have sold what was given to them.
The Republicans lost Ukraine is the narrative. They could have won if the Reps had supported the Biden policies.
Nope, you guys keep telling us that the Ukrainians are winning.
How does money fix this?
Explain in specific detail.
Hey “Z”...the EU owns you...ask them...
For any Zeepers or 3 letter Agency Bots, this guy is not a “Russian Bot“ or ”Putinista”.
He is generally Ukrainian leaning , however, he is a realist .
Fwiw, I watch a variety of War Mappers and they all are arriving at the same conclusion, the Ukrainians are getting crushed across a 600 mile long front.
For the US to continue to fund this fiasco( a fiasco for the dog faces on both sides, may they rest in peace .😢
A curse on the bastards in DC Kiev, London, Paris, Brussels , etc. that are prolonging this for their own enrichment.
If the EU can’t support this war why are we. This is an EU problem, not ours.
Pray tell, where will the grifters in congress and the three-letter agencies get their kickbacks, payoffs, and money laundering schemes when Ukraine caves?

Protect our own border.
I was wrong.
My prediction 7 months ago was it would end this or next month.
I imagine Ukraine might last a few more months before they negotiate a deal with the Russians even if that breaks with what we want.
As Russia mobilizes, the relative combat power of Ukraine vs. Russia will tip more and more to Russia’s favor over time (no different than WWII with the Allies vs. Axis). Ukraine at 41, now 28 million people living there, cannot keep up with Russia’s 144 million neither in combat power they can muster, nor in losses they they can sustain in a war of attrition which this has become.
The problem for the West: At this point it’s becoming more and more an issue of warm bodies that can be stuffed into uniforms for Ukraine. Why you have this: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/what-does-ukrainian-mobilisation-bill-entail-2024-04-11/ More money for more weapons, ammo, etc. helps, but it’s not really where the critical path is anymore.
I seriously doubt that we can keep this going even until the Nov 2024 elections, despite some pundits talking about Ukraine lasting years, and a next Ukrainian counteroffensive... Sad, but in a way funny because of how disattached from reality things have become.
Hey folks, remember all those arguing how the Russian economy will implode and how Ukraine is doing well: https://g.co/kgs/4aUJWFb (Look at it over 1 year if you want to see what is happening - and guess how the Rubble is still doing?)
Also, Russia is now stepping up the damage they are causing to Ukraines infrastructure and industry. This was intentionally not done for the longest time and will sadly for Ukraine have lasting consequences.
Ukraine will lose some more land, little by little, in what amounts to the Russians keeping them under pressure until the give up. Eventually reality will settle in. Whatever deal gets worked out will address the post war relationship, i.e. Russia will want to be sure that Ukraine does not spornsor an insurgency and keep meddling with terrorists. Russia will want assurances regards NATO and Ukraine being a buffer/neutral state. When Ukraine finally “taps-out” Russia will want to be in a position of advantage and able to define the deal. Now it’s just a matter of keeping the pressure on and keep grinding away at Ukraine.
