A historic day for Ukraine - they finally struck the largest refinery in Russia, 2500km from border !!

This one is going to be painful, and unnerving, given how deep into Russia it was

I think they've exceeded pretty much everyone's expectations.....especially Putin's. Zelensky has been extraordinary.

Meanwhile, is the mainstream media paying attention anymore? Can they break away from Trump long enough to report other stories?

Gives me considerable faith that the good guys actually can and will win. For awhile, even though it looked like a valiant effort on their part, Ukraine appeared so outnumbered, I feared Putin would prevail. Obviously he thought so as well.

When is it enough for these tyrants?
