Zelensky has replaced his defense minister. Some reports are tying the dismissal to alleged corruption and graft within the ministry: Source

Unclear how this will impact anything at this point.

Oh. Oh okay. NOW we're going to start acknowledging that Ukraine was always a corrupt oligarchy.
Just loved this line:
Official corruption was a topic that had been mostly taboo throughout the first year of the war,
But as Ukraine becomes even more authoritarian day by day, and Zelenskyy looks more and more like a lonely king with a circle of advisors than an elected leader of a democracy ... perhaps this is the narrative starting to accept that Ukraine isn't going to be worth all of this in the end ... and starting to prepare the "slava ukraine" crowd for Russia getting everything they demanded on day one.
People were all gung ho on VietNam at first too. And on Iraq.
And on Afghanistan.
It's all the same people involved. Why would Ukraine be any different?
Feverish war madness can only be maintained for so long in a population. So long as it was always possible to spin the news in a positive direction making people feel like heroes for endorsing the slaughter of innocent people, feverish war madness was the order of the day.
Reason hasn't won out yet. But there've been hopeful signs.

Watch for all the Western outlets to start re running their "Ukraine has a nazi problem" stories. That'll be another sign the herd is starting to look outwards instead of always inwards at the cow next to them to see what they're doing first.

OK, I might be misunderstanding, but if the concerned nations (Hungary, Poland, Slovakia) are allowed to continue to ban their consumption of Ukrainian grain, as long as they permit the transit of it to other nations, what's the problem?

If by "reason" you mean ignoring all of the war crimes committed by Putin, and catering to the will of right wing Republicans, then let us hope those "signs" you see never come to light.

Yeah! We've still got a lot of Ukrainians lined up to sacrifice on the altar of "democracy." Why would we want to interfere with THEIR right to sacrifice themselves for OUR national interests?? (Ignore that the sacrifices have to be hunted down and forced to the front...nothing to see there.)

Like I said, if left to your kind of "reasoning", dictators (authoritarians) like Putin, or the Republicans, should be allowed to overthrow whoever the choose, even here in the US.
Afterall, freedom is not worth fighting over.
