Jesus Christ this place is like 15 minutes from my house. You know what that means...
This Ukrainian Orthodox “church-memorial” in Kerhonkson, New York was built by a Nazi collaborator and war criminal who led the OUN(m) Bukovinian Battalion, members of which likely participated in the Babi Yar massacre, the largest mass shooting of Jews in history.
The plaque quotes another WW2-era OUN(m) leader, of whom a monument was unveiled in 1980 at the OUN(m)-affiliated Organization for the Rebirth of Ukraine (ODWU)'s "Ukrainian Homestead" in Lehighton, Pennsylvania. The OUN set up the ODWU in 1929-1930 as a sister group in the US.

Pretty intense rhetoric from this diaspora nationalist analyst—I wonder what she thinks of the far-right activists leading the “stop revanche” movement? (The Free People and Youth Nationalist Congress are affiliated with the present-day OUN-B.)
Hmmm
“Bandera didn't work for the Nazis, but used them as allies to liberate Ukraine”—seems more like the Nazis used the OUN to enslave Ukraine and kill Jews and others, but we can agree to disagree

Just got off the phone with someone from Right Sector USA who confirmed the organization is no longer active. "What happened? Did you lose touch with Right Sector?" I asked. "You could say that." I didn't pry for a better explanation but hope to follow up.
According to this spreadsheet posted on the now-defunct Right Sector USA website (rightsectorusa.com), RS-USA raised about $30,000 from 2014-2016. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
It appears that one of the last things Right Sector USA did was to partner with the Brooklyn-based Ukrainian "Social Development Institute" (SDI) to sponsor the "psychological rehabilitation" of Ukrainian children of soldiers killed in the Donbas.

#Thread: Inspired by the CBP Facebook revelations, I decided to take a look at the OUN-B affiliated U.S. Organization for Defense of Four Freedoms of Ukraine (ODFFU) Facebook group, which includes 610 people. In no particular order, here are some profiles that stuck out to me:
Dmytro Zhmailo, spokesman/executive director of Free People, member of Youth Nationalist Congress (MNK), and senior staff for Ukrainian MP Oleh Medunytsia, who himself chaired MNK 2002-2006. Among others, Zhmailo is FB friends with CUN leader S.Bratsiun.
Pavlo Podobied, head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Remembrance's Department for the Preservation of Places of Memory, according to Newsweek, has "accused Jews of being the main perpetrators of Soviet crimes against Ukrainians in the 1920s and 1930s." (1/2)

#Ukrainian police commanders launch "I am Bandera" flesh mob in honor of leader of ultranationalist and semi-fascist OUN, which collaborated with #Nazi Germany at beginning & end of #WW2 & was involved in mass murder of Poles, #Jews, Ukrainians & #Russians pravda.com.ua/news/2019/02/1…
Bandera flesh mob is launched after neo-Nazi C14 attacked #Kyiv district #Police headquarters following detention of C14 activists with knives & other weapons at Tymoshenko eection rally. Prosecutor General Office of #Ukraine investigates police for detaining neo-Nazi activists.
Detention of neo-Nazi C14 activists, who admit collaboration with SBU, at Tymoshenko election rally is another evidence of Avakov defection to Tymoshenko. But Bandera flesh mob shows that regime & far right are united in worshiping Nazi collaborator & mass murderer.

I have a few (likely unpopular) thoughts and (likely wrong) predictions about how the #Ukrainian crisis is going to unfold.
1. Like everyone else who has been following this of late, I do suspect that the Ecumenical Patriarch will issue a Tomos of Autocephaly for the Ukrainian Orthodox Church and I suspect that will happen before Christmas.
2. I think the majority of other autocephalous churches will issue statements lamenting the situation and will delay issuing a formal response as to whether or not they recognize an independent Ukrainian Church.

#New PA cong. map increases D chance of winning the House majority by 4%. They only need a 6.8% generic ballot margin now (down from 7.7) to be favored.

Diff. will be closer to 10% in Nov when uncertainty from polls is ⬇️. Redraw is a very big deal.

One major reason the new PA map is such a big gain for Democrats is that it solidifies, not just tips, PA districts in Philly burbs. Also creates one additional vulnerable R district. (Easily seen in this map made by @JMilesColeman)
My forecasting model will have new PA map in the near future. This is not just a simple switch; it’s a coding redesign, restructuring of input, & drawing new geographic files. Takes a while (for me, a student).

In the meantime, just add 3-4% to the model: bit.ly/2018_house

Fire and Fury. We all know everything so I’m just gonna share stuff I found surprising.

During the campaign Ivanka and Jared went on vacation with David Geffen. What the fuck? Seems after you become rich enough you no longer have what we call “personal beliefs”.
“So mortifying was [the Billy Bush] development that when Reince Priebus, the RNC head, was called to New York from Washington for an emergency meeting at Trump Tower, he couldn’t bring himself to leave Penn Station. It took two hours for the Trump team to coax him across town.”
“What is this ‘white trash’?” asked the model.
“They’re people just like me,” said Trump, “only they’re poor.”
