UKRAINE’S generals warned they have run out of reserves to halt Russia’s shock assault on Kharkiv.

It comes as Vladimir Putin masses more than half a million troops on the frontline in a bid to overpower Ukraine's forces.

Ukraine's military has admitted it is struggling to contain the advance in the north east of the country.

General Kyrylo Budanov, boss of Kyiv’s military intelligence said: “I’ve used everything we have.

“Unfortunately, we don’t have anyone else in the reserves.”

Putin’s troops have seized miles of ground in their fastest advances in months.

Putin is just one more enemy taking advantage of weak US leadership. He knew all we’d do is send money to Ukraine. He’s adding to our deficit while gaining a strategic military advantage in eastern Europe.

Same with the CCP-funded illegal immigrant influx and pro-muslim demonstrations.

Stolen elections have consequences. The acceleration of our demise started when we allowed a muslim marxist to become POTUS.

Ukraine better have the groundwork for their insurgency ready to roll....because I don’t think the conventional part is going to last much longer.

Retreat behind the Dnipro River.

The Russians are terrible when it comes to logistics.

Now's the time to send troops to Kyiv.

Who do you suggest goes first?

Now many troops do you suggest, bearing in mind it will likely draw a full response from Russia?

Do the Russians own everything east of the Dnipro River right now?

Too bad US policy forbade Ukraine from using American HIMARS from attacking Russia proper as Russia massed its troops just across the border. Not that it would have stopped this latest invasion but it wouudda have greatly increased the causalities with Putins cannon fodder conscripts.

But then, the Ukrainian deaths in this offensive are small potatoes compared to the Killing Fields that are coming to Ukraine once “Peace is given a chance” and Putin’s Blood Debts are paid in full.

I’m sure the media will educate us on the futility of fighting Russia on Ivan’s doorstep. Not.

Time for Ukraine to ask for forgiveness. Just do it.

No.

Plenty of RINOs and CINOs in America, the UK and Canada etc. have been huge cheerleaders for Ukraine. Even as they leave their own borders open.

They need to be sent as well.

Why don’t you volunteer yourself since you are so eager to send American boys over to fight and die?

“ Ukraine warns it has no more reserves”
******************************************

Time for ZEEPER MOBILIZATION? They can report for duty each armed with two suitcases filled with American One Hundred Dollar bills from AMERICAN TAXPAYERS’ MONEY. The Ukrainian Intelligence service can give them a day’s worth of basic training and ship them off to the front.

Zelensky’s Intelligence staff can hold on to the suitcases of money FOR “SAFEKEEPING”.

I agree but not US troops.

Time for Europe to split up, shut up or fight and die.

Not enough Ukies, not enough 155mm.

This could be easily foreseen a full year ago at least.

It was never about defending the Ukraine. It was about burning up Russian reserves before they move on the Baltics and Poland.

Which, they will.

Hell of a game.

There are a lot of NATO troops in the Baltics.

There are also tactical nukes in Belarus that are pointed toward those troops.

NATO could never save Ukraine. That wasn’t the point. They probably can’t save the baltics, Poland, or Finland.

Russia is behaving like Russia again, and we had better start figuring out who will do what before we wake up with Alaska invaded.
