    Classic RG Whataboutism and deflection.
    It isn't a whataboutism, nor a deflection.

    If Hunter Biden really did something wrong, sure, prosecute him.

    I was merely making a point about hypocritical s like yourself who can't muster the balls or enough intellectual honesty to admit you were ing silent while Trump and his family did the same and worse.

    It is all bad, but only one of us has the integrity to call out our own side for .

    Mainly to irritate the Liberal Loser Victims Club who have been notably silent on both.
    Dude, Trumps tax give away to the rich blew up the deficit. I said it was bad then.

    Yet another bit of double standards from the Hypocritical Histrionic Club.

    So, looks like UKR is doing some minor local counter attacks in the Bahkmut area.

    This is a win/win for UKR. If they are serious about it, they can embarrass the Russians who put a LOT of propaganda emotion into the 57th largest town in Ukraine as some shining prize.

    If they are not, and RUS commits reserves here and weakens other parts of the front for the major offensive they are preparing, then UKR has done yet another masterful job of shaping the battlefield.

    The level of panic in the Russian front line about even this does not auger well for what is going to happen when UKR finally does kick off its offensive.

    Deployment of Storm Shadow to UKR will allow them some long reach behind the RUS lines FINALLY.

    Unlike Russia's stupid terrorism that ignored military targets for the sake of killing school children in apartment buildings, UKR will almost certainly use their stock of long range missiles to seriously with C2 elements that might react to a counter offensive.

    Sounds like Zelensky is delaying counter-offensive until more war materiel arrives

    Wagner chief at war with Pootin's mafiya, probably because Wagner has lost 10Ks, with no victory, or real progress on the horizon.

    Also because it's probably still mud season and waiting expands their operational options.

    Exactly. I was looking at precipitation for the month of April and it was up significantly. A couple weeks ago it was flooded trenches.

    IT will be drying out here in the next week or two.

    Russian telegram channels are really in a panic.

    FUNNY:

    Russian ministry of defense put out a post that said "there is no panic" then deleted it, because saying there is no panic causes people to panic.

    Luhansk was just hit with two pinpoint strikes, word is they came from around Kramatorsk.

    Russians calling it cruise missiles, but I doubt the UAF 1) would deploy them that close to the line (25km) and 2) would use them on a low-value target. Don’t get me wrong, Luhansk is a major hub, but I would save those for Crimea. Unless, they received more Storm Shadow missiles than anyone thought or they want to strike fear in the heart of the command right away and keep them guessing.

    Prigozin is runing out of money and can't afford to pay all his trolls. So he sacked the worst ones.

    Probably not wanting to get another L from having to admit Russian oil revenues have tanked due to the sanctions.

    Down 30% or so.

    Or swearing up and down Russia wasn't going to invade. or that the war would be over in days. or that kyiv would fall, or that the counter-offensive around izium would fail, or that UKR would never retake Kherson, or... etc etc

    I would hate to have to walk a mile in his shoes.

    UKR looks to be doing several pincer maneuvers north and south of Bahkmut. This isn't even the main offensive, but is going to force RUS to deploy reserves to plug the holes that their losses are going to create.

    My bet is that UKR is going to have its resources strained by the sheer number of mobiks that are going to surrender in the next month or so.

    I would be willing to bet to a very high degree of certainty that those missiles will be used at the very limit of their range for the most part. They are too precious to waste on something that can be hit with conventional arty.

    If it was that close to the front, it was more likely HIMARS.

    The idiot will show up and say he called russia making the mistake of invading Ukraine; he will also call putler a midget.

    His mental gymnastics will be epic.

    Meh. The mud is often an issue in Ukraine because usually the ground freezes over the winter and when the thaw comes, the water doesn't sink, because the ground beneath is still frozen, and you get lots of mud. This winter was warm and no big freezes, so the ground should dry up pretty soon after each rain. It isn't like in WW2, when there were some of the harshest winters and then big mud in the spring.
