You won't see this on drudgereport. I look forward to day americans wake up and realise the full extent that their govt spend billions just on manufacturing consent. Why can't you drink clean water from tap? Because money must be spent on Twitter, IG, TIKTOK, and legacy media generating content to make them believe Ukraine is "winning." They made the same mistake in Vietnam that what's US people were shocked by brutal losses of Tet offensive.. hmm that was also touted as a "grand counter offensive." Study history people!
