The Biden Administration’s strategy is now to sustain Ukrainian defense until after the U.S. presidential elections

An interesting admission here. I think this is true, though the real reason has nothing to do with helping Ukraine -- it's about avoiding a political disaster for the Democrats.

Indeed, it seems that US mainstream media has pretty much abandoned the whole helping Ukraine narrative. Now they're admitting that the goal is to cynically force Ukrainians to fight until the election, and then throw them under the bus after.
