Extremely troubling that @realGonzaloLira, a US citizen in Ukraine, has disappeared from social media. He was scheduled to interview me last Friday about Zelensky’s SBU kidnapping and assassinating dissidents, and now I fear he has become its latest victim. #WhereIsGonzaloLira
My last Telegram messages to Gonzalo have double checks, indicating that whoever has access to his account has seen them. So the issue doesn’t seem to be internet connectivity.
Tweets from Ukrainian Nazi Sergei “Botsman” Korotkikh, who has now made his account private, say Gonzalo Lira has been kidnapped, tortured and might be beheaded. Impossible to verify, but this is plausible. SBU is known to torture and murder its victims.

Thread: Here’s my video report from #DefeatTheMandatesDC. Unlike cartoonish propaganda from Pfizer-funded corporate media, I strive to show the real character of the rally. @MaxBlumenthal explains how it's part of a global medical freedom movement.
In the days and hours before the rally, corporate media talking heads cited anonymous government officials to warn that "extremists" would attend and might be violent. I asked a rally goer what he thought.
#DefeatTheMandatesDC united people as they overcame political differences. This is why the establishment is so threatened.

I'll be covering the anti-mandate rally #DefeatTheMandatesDC on Sunday for @BTHeadline. No surprise, corporate disinformation operations are underway to discredit the march. A quick thread:
This NPR article cites an Instagram post with a screen grab of unknown origin falsely labelling it an "anti vaccine march" and claiming protesters intend to violate the mandate. Why did @amanduhgomez include this shady, untraceable post in her article? npr.org/local/305/2022…
The WaPo (which does paid content for Pfizer) ran a major story today smearing the march as "anti-vaccine" and a "movement to challenge vaccines’ safety", while baselessly linking it to an anti-abortion rally coincidentally taking place the same weekend. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/…

A State Department official is clearly stating that the US is preparing to invade Haiti. Anti-imperialists should take note and make sure they’re properly informed instead of swallowing the propaganda tropes circulating on social media and mainstream news.
Here’s State Department official and president-kidnapper @LuisMorenolg agreeing with an anonymous account that the US must invade Haiti. American diplomacy at its finest

Imagine having the gall to kidnap a president but be such a thin-skinned wimp on Twitter Image

My understanding of the Capitol insurrection has been evolving. We're in unprecedented territory and I don't fault anyone who has been unsure of how to interpret what happened. I think @BrianBeckerDC's analysis since January 6th has been correct, so I encourage everyone to listen
Finally, be sure to follow @TheSocProgram for daily dispatches and interviews.

Nominee to lead State Department Tony Blinken recently explained that Biden's pledge to "end the forever wars" means the US will reduce large-scale deployments while expanding secret wars waged by special forces and proxies.

Watch the full exposé here:
Tony Blinken pushed for clandestine weapons shipments to jihadist "moderate rebels" in Syria, neo-Nazi "freedom fighters" in Ukraine, and praised Trump for bombing Syria.

So much for "defeating fascism"!

In 2015, @ABlinken was a major proponent of expediting weapons shipments and expanding intelligence sharing with Saudi Arabia and UAE to fuel the genocide of Yemen.

Much to the delight of Mike Pompeo, western media outlets published articles claiming China is sterilizing Uighur Muslims. All of these articles are based on the claims of Adrian Zenz, a homophobic fundamentalist Christian who sees himself as an anti-China crusader "led by God".
.@ajitxsingh and @MaxBlumenthal exposed how Zenz's laughably shoddy "research" methods were taken at face value by credulous western media outlets bent on promoting the Cold War with China.

This appears to be happening again. thegrayzone.com/2019/12/21/chi…
Starting in the late 80s, western media outlets accused China of sterilizing women in Tibet. A 2001 fact finding mission debunked the reports and warned against "using refugee reports and anecdotal evidence to interpret highly politicized situations". savetibet.org/new-report-dis…
