Good summary of Ukraines offensive to date from USA Today:

Ukraine launched a counteroffensive against Russia's invasion earlier this summer with high hopes, but some experts have been skeptical that Ukraine will achieve its goals due to limited progress. Others, such as Ambassador John Herbst, senior director of the Atlantic Council’s Eurasia Center, a Washington, D.C., think tank, have a more positive view of Ukraine's efforts.

"The offensive has gone pretty much the way I anticipated. I've been saying since March that given what we are sending Ukraine by way of weapons, the best we could expect would be modest Ukrainian gains, which I'd define as several square hundred kilometers liberated. And, in fact, by the end of July, Ukraine had liberated over 300 square kilometers (186 square miles). And now it's gotta be triple or quadruple that. Maybe even more.

"We saw a lot of hand-wringing from both commentators and administration officials on background, going back to the middle of August, in the New York Times, the Financial Times, the Washington Post, and elsewhere, about how the offensive is not living up to its expectations. That's nonsense.

Today's missile strike on the Black Sea fleet HQ appears to have targeted a specific meeting.

It took out top level army officers as well as Navy ones. The fate of the commander of the Black Sea fleet is not known at present but rumors fly.

Utah Republican Senator Mike Lee's Ukraine poll gets ruined by NAFO!

Since in addition to voting I gave Senator Lee a piece of my mind, I am now blocked from his 'based Mike Lee' account. Others should feel free to share their thoughts with the good senator however.
I'm going to call his office to urge an increase in CIA funding of NAFO. I haven't gotten a raise in a week.
