A month ago today, @VP wrote an op-Ed for the WSJ downplaying COVID-19 and falsely claiming the U.S. was “winning the fight” and blaming the media for “fear mongering.”
.@VP: “The truth is, whatever the media says, our whole-of-America approach has been a success.”
If only Mike Pence declared war on COVID-19 as he’s declared war on truth and science; nearly 140,000 deaths and counting, could have been prevented.
2/4
.@VP can’t pray away the truth about his failed and deceitful leadership that’s killing Americans:
World: 13.6 million cases
585K deaths
————
U.S.: 3.5 million cases
140K deaths
U.S. has less than 5% of world’s population but 25% of COVID-19 cases, and 24% of the deaths.
3/4
The Trump-Pence administration’s war on truth and science cost more American lives than those lost on the battlefield in wars of the past 70 years:
COVID-19 - 140K
Afghanistan- 2,184
Iraq - 4,410
Persian Gulf - 383
Vietnam - 58,220
Korean War - 36,574
It will get worse.

Julian Assange’s dad, in Moscow for the BRICS Summit, thanked Putin for supporting his son, a Kremlin influence agent who advanced a multifaceted Russian military intelligence operation attacking the 2016 U.S. election to help Trump secure power.
While in Moscow
attending the BRICS summit at the invite of a US felon/Russian state-sponsored propagandist, Assange’s dad also praised Putin’s far-right allies Orbán & Fico.
Like his son, Shipton has well over a decade-long history influence peddling for the Kremlin. 2/4

Mira Terada, the Russian state sponsored propaganda agent and co-chair of the “BRICS Journalists Association” who invited Julian Assange’s dad to Moscow, is a US felon (drug smuggling) and protege of the Wagner Group’s late leader and war criminal Yevgeny Prigozhin.

Goals: attempt to make fools of Australians; taunt Ukrainians in Australia; support Russia’s war crimes. 🧵 smh.com.au/national/nsw/h…
1. Russian Orthodox Church is part of the Kremlin’s espionage & military influence apparatus.
A Russian orthodox choir invited to the Kremlin & that performed under banner linked to sanctioned Konstantin Malofeyev who helped with the illegal annexation of Crimea, knows this.
2. Russians know what ‘Z’ symbolizes.
“One member rehearsed in a shirt bearing a Z across the Russian flag. The choir insists the singer was unaware Z was a symbol of Russia’s war.”
That’s like saying a German wearing a Swastika during WWII had no idea what it symbolized.
Paul Manafort works for Vladimir Putin and is directly linked to the January 6, 2021 attack on the United States. Manafort and all of his associates must be arrested. This is a national emergency with global consequences.
Manafort helps Putin wage war. He is a war criminal.
Common Sense: Those who help Putin’s rogue terrorist regime wage war on the free world, a war Ukraine is on the frontlines sacrificing to protect humanity, must be arrested as war criminals and put on trial at The Hague.
The best Mother’s Day gift would be for someone to take down Vladimir Putin the Russian way. Russian opposition leaders have the duty to defend Russians from Putin causing a nuclear war. They need to step up and kill him. #StandWithUkraine
Putin’s killers in Ukraine tried to murder British journalists. The Sky News crew clearly identified themselves; Russian soldiers continued firing.
If the U.K. & NATO do not take this attack seriously and understand they are officially involved in this war, then they’re cowards.
If the U.K. and NATO look the other way after Putin’s killers tried to assassinate their citizens, that’s cowardice of another level. It’s bad enough they’re watching a nuclear terrorist destroy Ukraine with missiles and refuse to help protect Ukrainian sky.
The UK and NATO are officially involved in this war. Their first job is to protect Ukrainian sky with a #NoFlyZone as @ZelenskyyUa has made clear. No more cowardice.
In 2015, Ukraine’s President Poroshenko warned Facebook it was being used as a weapon by the Kremlin to flood disinformation as Putin waged war on Ukraine. He called into a FB town hall, said he had evidence & asked FB for an office in Kyiv to stop it. Zuckerberg laughed at him.
Here’s the Washington Post article about Ukraine’s President Poroshenko’s pleas to Facebook in 2015, asking Mark Zuckerberg to stop allowing the Kremlin to weaponize the platform with disinformation about Ukraine.
In 2014, during Putin’s invasion and start of his war against Ukraine, many other Ukrainians also warned that Russia was weaponizing Facebook against Ukraine. Here’s an article and part of a letter some Ukrainians wrote Facebook back then…
It’s not a coincidence that Putin is threatening Ukraine at the same time Donald J. Trump is going to be arrested. The two are connected.
Neither is doing well, Vladimir Putin is dealing with many powerful Russians who want him dead.
We should all give Russians our full support to take down Vladimir Putin once and for all as they fight against his war that threatens their right to life, liberty, freedom, and happiness.
