How things go for Ukraine depends on what Republicans do when they get back from vacation.
Republicans rule the House with a slim margin. All it will take is a couple to realize that they don't want to be traitors, they don't want to spend their one precious life backing Putin.
Ukrainians are willing to fight, but with their ammunition running out, they face an uphill battle.

Investment banker and lawyer James Rickards claims:
1, Russia is winning the war except to anti-Russian diehards who refuse to see reality.
2, Russia won't attack the Baltics or Poland. It doesn't have the manpower to occupy Ukraine and take on NATO. In fact it doesn't have the manpower to take on NATO if it weren't in Ukraine.
3, NATO risks escalating this where missiles and nukes could be involved. If Ukraine can fly F16s out of a NATO country the NATO base would be a legitimate target for Russian missiles. If France sends troops it could escalate.
4, The US realizing Russia is winning might seize $300B in Russian assets in US treasures. Russia would respond by seizing $300B in US assets still in Russia. This is foolish and is weakening the US position as the place of safe investing.
No, I'm waiting for the Ukie-bots to get their updates from Zelensky. It's getting harder and harder for them to maneuver around increasing inconvenient truths. There appear to be quite a few of them on this site. They should call on Zelensky to hurry it up and let them know how they should proceed.
I'm pro-Ukie as you all know, but I won't deny that Ukraine is on the losing side and Russia is on the winning side. What I am not however is happy about the current score.

Most of today's Republicans are the same as Putin's oligarch in the Kremlin in my eyes. The ones who are not are classified by the rest of them as RINO's.

1. Russia is winning the war because they gained a tiny bit of ground recently....uh...no.
2. Russia won't attack Baltics or Poland ....and James Rickards knows this how? Trusting Putin...sure.
3. NATO is not doing any such. A desperate Putin has been throwing around the nukes card since day one.
4. If US seizes $300B in Russian assets, it isn't going to change jack in terms of
USA being a safe place to invest....Russia can only dream of America's economy.
And I personally think they should seize it and use it to provide weaponry for Ukraine.
So they want to steal Russia's money. You saw what they did to Hungary. Countries have to wonder what the neocons have in store for them if they don't comply with their sickness.

Are you simultaneously claiming that:
1, Russia is severely struggling against Ukraine
2, Russia is a threat to conventionally take on a much stronger NATO which would be logistically tougher
Zelensky: ‘We are trying to find some way not to retreat’
By David Ignatius......................
Zelensky reminds me of an actor with a rubber snake. He's rolling around on the ground screaming, "It's got me! It's got me!" and he's doing it all himself.
Is Ukraine in trouble?.... You bet. And they want US assistance, too. But there is no danger of Russia taking over Ukraine. The greatest threat now is that Russia could lose Crimea. That would be a disaster for Russia, and if they quit now Crimea would almost certainly be lost.
I support any country who threatens the Russian economy. There is something very, very wrong in the collective Russian psyche. They will continue to create problems world wide until their economy is destroyed.

The conversation can't happen if someone doesn't acknowledge the coup in 2014 same as if you think there are more than 2 genders I'm done with ya. You will never get through my friend it is now over 2 years and counting. Iggy.
