David Sacks. David, great to see you. Thank you so much for taking the time. Also the all in podcast, all the good stuff. He is a cultural force. David, let's, let's just get back to the facts here so our audience can think about this correctly. What exactly happened? Zelensky launched a surprise drone strike attack into the interior of Russia. Reports are saying that this is 30% of their nuclear potential bombing capabilities. Some people are comparing it to Pearl Harbor. Let's just start there. What exactly factually happened when Zelensky approved this drone strike against Russia?

Well, the Ukrainians started planning this apparently over an 18 month period or so they said. And what they did is they smuggled in, I think, several civilian trucks that were stocked with drones, and they were able to get them near Russian Air Force bases, some of which were thousands of miles away, all the way on the east coast of Russia. And in a coordinated fashion, they released their drones. They must have smuggled operators into the country as well, because these are. These are not autonomous drones or human operated. And I think the operators must have been relatively close to these Air Force bases, and they were able to simultaneously attack several of these bases and attack a number of these bombers that were on the ground. Now, I think the number of about 40 bombers destroyed and 30% that I think is exaggerated. The articles that I've seen, that again, we don't know for sure, but the ones that I've seen seem to think that around 10 of these bombers were either destroyed or significantly damaged, which is still a meaningful loss for the Russians, but it doesn't incapacitate their bomber fleet or anything like that.
