who could have seen this coming? surely not the south Vietnamese, the south Koreans, or any of the other militaries the united states propped up until it became clear that they weren’t going to win
Kurds are joining the chat.
They had a good shot until the Russian government took over US Congress.
Could Americans, just for once, take responsibility for their own shitty politicians and politics, rather than blaming it on foreigners? This “foreigners secretly control the government ” bullshit is basically the same kind of conspiracy theory scapegoating that Republicans do with Qanon, and it’s bordering on fascistic in it’s attitude.
Liberals will never be able to figure out why the first president to ever authorize weapons transfers and sales to Ukraine was Trump and the Republicans.
Also the first president to face 91 criminal charges. What in the ever-loving hell is your point?
If you can’t figure it out, it’s useless for me to explain it to you
Ukraine had a good shot at peace and no war at all until the US government took over Kiev.
Btw Russiagate has been thoroughly exposed as a made up story to get Dems all excited. But go on about how non-existent foreign interference in US politics is bad but US interference in foreign politics either doesn’t happen or should be happening depending on the particular reality invented by the State Department for the particular country in question.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
Ukraine is running low on ammunition for its US-supplied Howitzer guns as it battles to fend off Russian attacks, CNN reported.
An artillery crew for an M109 Paladin Howitzer near Bakhmut said that shells were in short supply amid a hold-up in US aid, and they were having to ration their use.
While Russia has placed its economy on a war footing, gearing up its production of shells and other types of ammunition, Ukraine’s supply from its Western allies is dwindling.
Russia has reportedly increased its production of shells to around two million a year, according to Ukrainian military intelligence.
Ukraine uses around 240,000 shells a month and ammunition shortages are an increasing problem as Russia intensifies attacks on Ukrainian positions on key parts of the front line.
A Ukrainian soldier told CNN that Ukraine was being outgunned, and Russia also had Soviet-era ammunition reserves to draw on.
