Is Chasiv Yar doomed? The Ukrainians never seem able to hold on to any one point when the Russians really concentrate on attacking it. Can we still hope that at some point the rate of Russian losses will cause the tide to turn? If Speaker Johnson does finally allow that vote, will the Russians quail, or have good reason to quail?

Speaker Johnson is a man of no importance who thanks to circumstances can wage life and death of thousands of people (let us hope that not of the millions). It is a shameful situation nobody in question is ashamed of.
I was hoping to have someone counteract the pessimism of my question! Johnson may be a nobody, but seemingly a nobody of great importance suddenly. I am still hoping that the Russians will have reason to worry if Johnson finally does the famous Right Thing
The things a marionette of a madman does are neither right nor wrong. Trump is manipulating not only Johnson but the American society in a disastrous way.
The way things are right now: yes, Chasiv Yar is doomed.
It is already savaged by glide bombs and the Russian artillery, and the Russian troops are now inside the village. Whenever this happens, the Ukrainians start losing troops: instead of k.... cuddling 15-30 Russians for every own loss, the 'exchange ratio' is down to 2 or 3 for 1. That's when they have no options but to withdraw.
....even more so if there is no artillery ammunition, mortar bombs must be re-calibrated in order to fit available mortars, FPVs are all blocked by the Russian EW, and there are no other heavy weapons at hand.
