Al-Jazerra described the spring offensive by Ukraine as recovering as much as 200-300 yards per day. Thats a diaster .

This war is not meant to be won. It’s meant to spend money and enrich DC and other cronies

Yesterday marked exactly one year when the first Russian artillery landed on Bakhmut. They still have not taken the city.

It's basically become First World War trench warfare on a smaller scale. Offensives are measured in yards instead of miles. I hope the Joint Chiefs are studying this conflict because this is what awaits us in a hypothetical Third World War if either side fails to gain control of the air.

Is it bringing in more financing?
Wars end when you run out of money or men. I think we have a ways to go.

We have to send billions more. Only way this will end is to get more money to those Nazis.
Mandatory tax increases on everything across the board for the next five years.

Everything becomes a stalemate in that kind of trench warfare and open country with drones spotting your every move and then BAM! You are dead.

That's impressive by WWI standards.

The full offensive hasn't started yet. The gains Ukraine has been making recently are from localized counterattacks on the flanks of Bakhmut. It will be very apparent when the real offensive begins.
On a positive note for Russia, they are close to taking the entirety of Bakhmut, after only a year of trying, which has to be considered a major success for them.
Russia is now sending 1950's era T54 tanks to the battlefield. They are obviously taking the gloves off.

Ukraine is smaller than the state of Texas.
What in the actual frick could/should possibly be left standing there in a confrontation with a world superpower?
The cost estimates are in the $Trillions and rising for damages to infrastructure etc...
When does it get out of hand to stop printing money and turning over assets for the US?
