is they are arousing the ire of the American people with every single blundering step they take against these high school students and waitresses who they're trying to tell us are the real monsters that we all need to be saved from.

According to NBC News, Ukraine's security services smuggled more than 100 drones into Russia, in some cases well into Russia. Then they hid them under the roofs of mobile wooden cabins. It took months for them to do this, to get them all in place.
