GOP would be proud of this level of their gaslighting.

UA has nearly driven all Russian artillery from positions within 25 km of Kharkiv. Apparently this would be a significant victory and remove the bombardment pressure which the Russians have inflicted there for the last 10 weeks.

Also, Russian claims last month of the complete capture of "Molodova" finally make sense to me.

Interesting explanation for why the Russians are freaking out.

Now, this could cause a revolution.

The Russian Orthodox Church sees the GOP's push to return to the 19th century and raises by 800 years.

Comments are interesting.

These are the Russian-speaking people who are supposed to be the reason Russia invaded.

Holy sh-t.

The Ukrainian counteroffensive northeast of Kharkiv is making significant progress and will likely advance to the Russian border in the coming days or weeks. Russian forces may be conducting a limited withdrawal in the face of successful Ukrainian attacks and reportedly destroyed three bridges to slow the Ukrainian advance. Armies generally only destroy bridges if they have largely decided they will not attempt to cross the river in the other direction anytime soon; Russian forces are therefore unlikely to launch operations to retake the northeast outskirts of Kharkiv liberated by Ukrainian forces in the near future. Russian forces previously destroyed several bridges during their retreat from Chernihiv Oblast—as did Ukrainian forces withdrawing in the face of the Russian offensive in the initial days of the war.

This Ukrainian offensive is likely intended to push Russian forces out of artillery range of Kharkiv city and drive to the border of Russia’s Belgorod Oblast. As ISW previously forecasted, the Ukrainian counteroffensive is forcing Russian units intended for deployment elsewhere to redeploy to the Kharkiv front to halt Ukrainian attacks. Given the current rate of Ukrainian advances, Russian forces may be unable to prevent Ukrainian forces from reaching the Russian border, even with additional reinforcements. Ukrainian forces are not directly threatening Russian lines of communication to Izyum (and ISW cannot verify claims of a separate Ukrainian counteroffensive toward Izyum at this time), but the Ukrainian counteroffensive demonstrates promising Ukrainian capabilities and may set conditions for further offensive operations into northeastern Kharkiv Oblast.

The death dance of the Right, everywhere the same.

Oh. My. God. That video is amazing.

That is nationalism. Not the aggressive bullshit Russia and the GQP have.
