UKR actually is hanging in there. Take a look at the news. UKR is relentlessly blowing up the RU energy infrastructure - they just struck 1300 km into RU. and UKR just caused perhaps the biggest arms depot explosion of the war.
We all know the war will end by freezing the lines about where they are now, and UKR can hold that.
Except they're not... Russia is advancing every day and the outcome is not in doubt.
World War 2 was over in 1942. Germany had no chance of victory by December of 1942. Japan was strategically defeated on December 7th, 1941 when they failed to sink our carriers.
Ukraine has lost. If Ukraine could hold the current lines Russia wouldn't be advancing every day.
I think your information is out of date. Check out Institute of War's updates. RU's advances are immaterial, and they are taking unsustainable losses. The outcome is very much in doubt.
MORE: Ukrainian forces, enabled by essential US assistance, are inflicting unsustainable losses on Russian forces while holding them to marginal gains. This situation, combined with the severe challenges Russia will face in 2025, offers the United States great leverage in peace negotiations. A suspension of ongoing US military assistance to Ukraine would encourage Putin to continue to increase his demands and fuel his conviction that he can achieve total victory through war.

Bad day on wall street again, because of one man's obsession with increasing taxes on US companies and consumers via tariffs.

"Trump will run the country like he runs his businesses" is what we are afraid of.
The Trump and MELANIA coin did exactly what they were supposed to do. Open a door to allow people to fill Trump's pockets and then pump and dump to leave all the suckers holding the bag.
And I am afraid we are seeing just the beginning with Tesla and other tech/crypto bubbles. Hopefully, it will be a crash akin to the 2000 dot com bubble and won't cause any systemic issues. However, the big funds like Blackrock, etc. have a lot of irons in the tech fire and could really be in trouble if Tesla and all the AI stocks collapse. Of course, any systemic issues will just blow up because the DOGE kids have kicked out all the regulators.
I will tell Russian soldiers that they are cowards right to their loser faces. They are all cowards and total losers. If it wasn't for America, all those Russian cowards would be eating stale weinerschnitzels right now.
Sure you will.

I will tell Russian soldiers right to their hamhocked faces and in no uncertain terms that they are all cowards. You ever see that Russian Valery Gerasimov? Can you believe the head on that guy? It's warped like a refrigerator or something. He's top heavy with a melon like that. He's your typical Russian soldier coward with a big, giant balloon head.

These people have been lying about casualty figures for 3 years now. How long does it take these "unsustainable losses" to actually become unsustainable?
They've been "unsustainable" for 3 years now and yet Russia's military is stronger today than it was in 2022...
The outcome is not in doubt at all unless you pretend the propaganda that Russia's on the brink of collapse...

The whole Trump peace deal was a sham from the beginning. Putin's demands were untenable for Ukraine. Putin's deal was basically Ukraine gives up a huge amount of strategic territory, drastically disarms and waits like a sitting duck for the next Putin pretext to invade and finish off Ukraine once and for all. Trump is still butt hurt that Zelensky didn't give him dirt on Hunter Biden and has been wanting to drop US aid from day one. Trump's claims of wanting peace were just a way to try and make it seem like it was all Zelensky's fault so people wouldn't call Trump a Putin puppet.
What happens next could be very interesting. Putin is not going to make a deal. Russia's economy is now dependent on war and will collapse in a matter of weeks if there is a peace deal. But Russia's economy is also running out of time as inflation, deficits, etc. are taking a huge toll. Trump may attempt to provide Putin with sanctions relief, which would be a huge political liability as Trump is imposing tariffs on allies while giving it all away to Moscow. But what could be a huge blow for Putin and Trump is if the EU and UK finally step up and fill the void left by the US. The EU has $200 bil in frozen RU assets. And if countries like Germany and France are smart, they could use a boost in defense production to try and win over working class voters who have been skeptical of the war by bringing good paying jobs to E. Germany, etc.

Putin's demand in 2021 was just not to join NATO...
Now that 500,000 Russians have died and he's winning the war why the hell would he give the land back??
Trump doesn't give a damn about Biden or his crackhead son. He wants the war to end.

He said 1 phone call and 24 hours. He made the call, Vlad told him to fck off.
He has no other plan.
He's the weakest president in the history of the United States.

It is if you have any idea what you're talking about.
They have less tanks now but they have hundreds of thousands more battle hardened troops and they have mastered drone warfare.
Meanwhile the west has never fought a modern war.
if you went to putin and said 'would you want your army of 2021 or your army of 2025 you and I both know he would say 2021.
Be serious.
He lost his black sea navy. 600,000 men kia or wounded. Has no air superiority. A lot less armor as you point out. A severely weakened energy infrastructure.
You can't tell me that he'd pick his armed forces of 2025 over what he had in 2021. His 2021 army is taking just meters every day - that's all it can manage.

If you asked an American general if they'd rather fight the 160,000 man Russian army of 2021 or the million man battle hardened army of 2025 they would all pick the 2021 army.
As always you have no idea what you're talking about.
Fort Benning is back! Total win, never should've been changed. Frick woke bull.
In other news ICE and border patrol are doing work, they are patriots.
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the FBI apprehended an illegal Salvadoran alien charged in his home country with possession of firearm, extorsion and terrorist affiliation when officers arrested David Alejandro Orellana-Aleman, 27, in Hyattsville, Maryland, Feb. 27. “The apprehension of David Alejandro Orellana-Aleman strikes a significant blow to the leadership and organization of the MS-13 terrorist organization,” said ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations acting Field Office Director Matthew Elliston. “This arrest speaks volumes about the cooperation enjoyed between ICE and the FBI. We will continue to prioritize public safety by arresting and removing illegal alien offenders from our communities.” Orellana is a high-ranking leader in the MS-13 transnational terrorist organization and controlled the operation of MS-13 cliques in the United States, Mexico, and Europe. “Maryland is immediately safer because of this arrest. Working together, we took custody of one of the highest-ranking gang members in the United States,” said FBI Baltimore Special Agent in Charge William J. DelBagno. “David Alejandro Orellana-Aleman is no longer in his alleged position of power directing violence. His arrest demonstrates the success we can have when we collectively investigate and disrupt violent criminals seeking to exploit our communities.”

Perhaps so, but just because Russia's capabilities in that military subgenre are superior to their counterparts in the Ukraine doesn't mean that they have "mastered" it.

Absurd. Ru has terrible morale, little armor,weak artillery, no navy, hardly any air power or air defense, a fuel crisis…they had to bring in NK soldiers to help.
the us would end this war in a week if fighting stayed conventional and not nuclear or chemical. that would not have been possible in 2021.
Putin would give anything to get his armed forces of 2021 back.
