This is an important thread for those focused on events in Ukraine. It brings to light what many of us already knew but what Russian disinfo efforts are trying to distort. Please read and share.
11 years ago, a pivotal moment took place in the history of Ukraine. The Berkut special police unit killed 48 people in the center of Kyiv, Yanukovych fled, and the Russians started a war against Ukraine. Share this thread. It`s huge. 👇

Confessions....
Trump: The corruption is so pervasive…. We're taking in billions and billions and billions of dollars, and it's going to get to a point where you're not even going to believe it. So sad it was allowed to happen.

"Peace negotiations" are cover for deals. Selling out peace for cash.
NEW!! U.S. and Russian teams have discussed a sweeping slate of potential energy and commercial deals, including Russian diesel sales, Lukoil’s overseas assets and a possible revival of Nord Stream gas flows to Europe, two U.S. officials informed about the talks told me 1/2

Odd. Very odd. Not only a flip but a flip and then some. Something smells.
Breaking: this is turning into a dramatic election night in Israel. It began with all three major television networks projecting the Zionist opposition bloc ahead of Netanyahu’s bloc by three seats. Hours later, the picture has shifted dramatically. Netanyahu’s bloc has been steadily gaining ground and now leads the Zionist opposition by three seats according to channel 12. The overall size of the opposition, including the Arab parties, has not changed significantly. 70 => 68. Likud officials are now claiming that Netanyahu has won a majority of the Jewish vote, adding that “the night is still young.” Likud is briefing journalists that it expects Netanyahu’s bloc to finish with 55–57 seats. That would still leave him short of the 61 seats needed for a governing majority, but it would represent a significantly stronger showing than anything suggested by the pre-election polls or the initial exit polls. The counting continues.

The lies just flow so easily. The crowd just accepts it all so easily.
a heavily slurring Trump lies his ass off: "Not only did Talafreako state that God is transgender, he actually said that if Jesus Christ himself came and visited the Texas legislature, Jesus would be promoting sex changes for little children."

We have reached a new low in US history.
Trump just made up some weird fantasy about James Talarico vomiting. What's wrong with this guy? "I happen to think he was food poisoned by meat because he can't stand it. You ever see him go to a barbecue and he's trying to show, I love the meat, ah, I love it, look. And then you see him, where is he. He's behind the tent, puking. He's sick as a dog."

Sticking our nose in other people's business (NOT America First) AND harboring criminals. Our journey to the dark side is complete.
As I reported hours ago, Flávio Bolsonaro has arrived safely in United States. The mastermind behind this operation is U.S. Secretary of State @SecRubio . From the United States, free and safe, Flávio will lead the opposition against Lula.

Trump...Bolsonaro...Orban...Netanyahu... Create the narrative ahead of time, then continue pounding away to undermine trust in the election.
Netanyahu: They are trying to steal the election from us!

Well, based on several in this administration, Arabs produce billions in shady deals. Racist POS.
RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Novel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

I don't even....
Trump on Daylight Savings Time: They say the clocks automatically change, but you don't know that, so you wind it back still further.

With all the blaming & lecturing Ukraine about lives wasted, none are slamming Putin about sending a million Russians (among other nationalities) to their deaths with more wounded for life. Elon & others never seem to call out Putin for these senseless deaths.
This chart is insane. This shows Russia's casualties over time compared to Russia's territorial gains in Ukraine over the last five years. No sane or rational person would say continuing the war to try and take more of Ukraine's territory is worth the casualties.

Making a mockery of our elections. It's like putting a tipline out there. The DoJ has to love this.
Trump: “—Anybody reporting Voter Fraud in the past Elections, or the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election, will be paid $1,000,000 upon the arrest and conviction of those that created the Fraud!“

Telling that Israel's own military sees no sense of urgency here. Put these together - Israeli elections tomorrow, Netanyahu begging for strikes on Iran. Bibi definitely needed Trump to bail him out on strikes so Bibi could postpone elections. He's scared.
💥An Israeli security official to @CNN: "Netanyahu very much wanted to carry out a joint strike against Iran before the elections, and tried to persuade Trump, but didn't get the okay. One reason for that is that IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir told US counterpart Dan Kane that a strike would harm electoral process in Israel and lead to postponement of vote."

How far our nation has slipped. This is the 'norm' of our President. Try teaching American Government when this is the story overriding anything Washington, Lincoln, FDR, & Kennedy did while in office.
Trump on Husted: "He went up 14 points or something. That was when I said the A-word. I looked at his body."

Murdering POWs here. War crimes. This is what Witkoff calls "humanitarian" behavior. You think this is just Zelensky making Ukrainians fight? Ukrainians know what surrender to Russia means. Freedom cannot be taken for granted. It must be defended.
This is what Musk defends: Russian war crimes carried out openly. This is the humanity that Steve Witkoff defends. RUSSIAN EXECUTIONS.
