This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

Russkie losses have picked up substantially since the aid package was passed.
Before, it looked like 500k wouldn't happen until at least D-Day. Now, 6/1 looks fairly likely.
It reads like they are expanding some facilities, and increasing surveillance capabilities, and not moving forces to the region. Previous article have detailed Russia moving resources west of the Urals to replace equipment lost in the war. I suppose they are mostly pulling reserves items, but I recall air defense systems being redeployed.
Whatever, anything they do in the East is something they cannot use in the West against Ukraine. The US and Japan should oblige them to increase the tempo with some joint exercises.
Gotta figure that half of the original #'s in storage were probably already unusable, which would imply they're down to fumes on many types of equipment already.
They have to be scrounging. After decades of corruption I suspect a lot of those tanks in storage had been stripped of stuff like, you know, the engine
I will cheer in coming days as the AA numbers exceed 800. Make way for the F16s…
Mike Johnson doesn't owe Democrats shit...

There are more tanks on display at the 4th of July parade in Lone Tree, IA, than were on display in Moscow.
Number one, the job isn't worth having,.. Number two, without Johnson zero gets done in the House.
WTF are you arguing???
Without Dem support for Johnson, Moscow Marge likely succeeds in her motion "to vacate".
The GOP caucus has spent more time with their in-fighting than passing any meaningful legislation.
Even Fox Opinion Network said that.
Ukrainian official states that the first group of F-16pilots are nearing the completion of their training.
I know that maintenance is going to be an ongoing issue, and although they will be based in Ukraine, I recall that some heavy weapons have been pulled across the border to NATO nations for refurbishment. I wonder if heavy maintenance and repair will very quietly be done in Romania or Poland? Neither of them seem to give AF about Putin's blustering.

Interesting story about Russian workers quitting their jobs at oil refineries and storage facilities due to ongoing Ukrainian attacks. The analysis comes from some first person accounts, but also from a noticeable uptick in help wanted ads.

So, same as before @without Johnson”. Nothing gets done. Quite the legacy for those serving today.
