(FREE AUDIOBOOK CONTENT) It’s been so long since I posted it that I *forgot* I made a big chunk of PROOF OF CORRUPTION—my Russia-Ukraine book on how Trump helped fuel what’s happening now—free on YouTube. So this thread will contain a swath of the audiobook FREE.
Please RETWEET.
(PROOF OF CORRUPTION: INTRODUCTION)
(PROOF OF CORRUPTION: CHAPTER 1)
(PROOF OF CORRUPTION: CHAPTER 2)
(PROOF OF CORRUPTION: CHAPTER 3)
(PROOF OF CORRUPTION: CHAPTER 4)
(EPILOGUE: PART 2) It is not entirely about Ukraine, but as apparently I posted on YouTube the second half of the *very* long Epilogue to the national bestseller PROOF OF CORRUPTION, I figure I might as well post it again in this thread.
(PS) I will never again make a cent from this book—my advance was larger than any earnings will ever be—so I am posting all this purely to get information out. I am not trying to sell books. In fact, you can find tons more FREE content from the book here: sethabramson.net/books
(PS2) I want to thank inimitable actor/audiobook narrator Robert Petkoff (@Petkoff)—who also reads for Bob Woodward—for giving PROOF OF CORRUPTION a reading *infinitely* more expert than I ever could have. This book became a national bestseller in significant part because of him.

The Trump-Putin axis launched—at the latest—in July 2015, when Trump assured Putin, speaking to a Russian spy on camera, that he didn’t care what Putin did in Ukraine and wouldn’t punish him for it, may cause WW3. Think of all the intersections between the men the GOP lied about.
Trump was in secret business negotiations with the Kremlin throughout his 2016 presidential campaign, even as Kremlin agents were writing his foreign policy—literally. Once he became POTUS he began working to aid Putin in bringing Ukraine to its knees financially and politically.
Trump selected as his campaign manager a man he *knew* had been on the Kremlin payroll for years and was paid *millions* annually. When Manafort came to him and said he'd work for "free", Trump knew exactly what was going on—he was getting a chance to get a Trump Tower in Moscow.
(UPDATE) The mystery of the “Ghost of Kyiv”—real flying ace or meme?—continues. While Snopes reports that a video supposedly of the Ghost (one *never published by this feed*) is fake, it cannot discount that one pilot *may* have downed 4 Russian jets in the first day of fighting.
(PS) This topic really confuses people. No one is saying the *phrase* “Ghost of Kyiv” is anything but a meme. Nor is anyone doubting Ukraine really *did* claim it downed 6 Russian aircraft in a day. The *only* question—and it’s unresolved—is how many pilots downed those aircraft.
(PS2) If it turns out four of those Russian aircraft were downed by one pilot, that pilot *is* the “Ghost of Kyiv” (meaning, the meme the internet created correctly attaches to a single Ukrainian pilot). This is one of the strange ways that digital culture interacts with reality.
(🔐) MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: New Revelations Indicate Ginni Thomas Was Key Author of Trump’s January 6 Coup Plot
This is an explosive but extremely well-sourced report. I hope you’ll subscribe to PROOF, RETWEET this news widely, and follow the thread below. sethabramson.substack.com/p/breaking-new…
1/ As regular PROOF readers know, PROOF articles are both long and deliberately slow burns; they build a journalistic case through numerous sources and links and callbacks to significant past reporting. This article is no exception—some of its most explosive components come late.
2/ The most significant work the article does, and I consider this only the tip of a very large iceberg, is it dispels the false notion that *either* Peter Navarro *or* John Eastman were the authors of what is now known as Trump's coup plot: the vile, seditious "Green Bay Sweep."
(BREAKING) Donald Trump, a traitor to America who plotted to steal the 2016 and 2020 elections and then plotted to overthrow our country’s democratically elected government—in all three cases, with aid from hostile foreign nations—just said the following of Putin invading Europe:
(VIDEO) I publish this *only* so you will know that the above quote is not made up—because any American patriot would assume it *has* to be made up. But it is *not* made up. It was the words of a former American president who should be in a federal prison.
(PS) Notice Trump first referred to it as “the Ukraine” to please Putin (calling it “the Ukraine” is code for saying it’s a region of Russia and not its own country). Understand that *no U.S. politician* can make this grievous mistake without it being a major international gaffe.
(🔐) In a secretly recorded call between Lin Wood and Patrick Byrne, the men—one an ex-Rittenhouse lawyer—claim Rittenhouse is being puppeted by far-right entities.
(PS) The picture attached to the PROOF article above—which offers a lengthy analysis of the secretly recorded Byrne-Wood call—shows Joe Oltmann on the left and Byrne on the right, because a big part of the article is about Joe Oltmann. This (below) is L. Lin Wood, lest we forget:
(PS2) The upshot is that there’s *nothing* organic about anything Rittenhouse does now. He’s a young man who is getting rich and famous by going wherever a series of handlers and puppeteers tell him to go. That isn’t a conspiracy theory; it’s literally *how MAGA celebrity works*.
