@JuliaDavisNews Let’s not spare people the even uglier truth: Pavel Gubarev is a “notable” neo-Nazi from the neo-Nazi org Russian National Unity. Here are images of RNU meetings, in the best Nazi traditions. Notice the third poster, which lovingly reminds these “activists” to “Cleanse Russia!”
@JuliaDavisNews His classmates remember a swastika hanging in his dorm room and he can be seen on many RNU meetings photos and videos. Gubarev was key in the intimidation and violence that Russian proxies unleashed in Donetsk and elsewhere.
@JuliaDavisNews This intimidation and violence were necessary because the majority of Donetsk residents were loudly and clearly telling the Russians, and their proxies and collaborators to do what Russian warships and invaders are being “advised” to do in 2022. This was Donetsk March 2014.
@JuliaDavisNews Again, these are the advanced-guard “denazifiers”, the carriers of “Russian World” values.

To fight the scourge of Trumpism, we must know what it is. The conventional picture of an opportunist and a small group of extremists in a hostile takeover of a serious party is a lie. Trumpism is the coming true of Republican wishes decades in the making.
Until we see that conservatism has been profoundly hijacked, twisted and gutted from within for the past 50+ years, we won’t make any headway. This Republican Party, a now profoundly evil institution, must wither and die for the Republic to have a shot at survival.
To this day, Trump bases his daily assault on the Constitution and the country on the legal precedent set forth by an arch-member of the well-behaved establishment Republican boys’ club—Chief Justice John Roberts, a man who got his start under Reagan and George H.W. Bush.
Hear me out.
Stop believing that Trump has in mind a deal that is conciliatory to Putin. There is no deal. There never was one. There will never be one. What Trump is methodically doing is much worse. He is trying to deliver all of Ukraine to Putin. To be precise, Ukraine and Moldova.
It is extremely important that we stop being swayed by the distractions he dangles to obscure his true goal. Putin and Trump are united in one goal: Ukraine must cease to exist. It isn’t only Trump’s fervent desire to please Putin. It’s also Trump’s own dirty little passion.
Why? It’s partly about the impeachment but only partly. It’s also for the same reason vatniks from all corners of the globe hate Ukraine, a country they have no personal fight with. Ukraine offends them deeply and existentially.
Let’s analyse 13 claims from the 1941 Congressional testimony of Nazi lover and America First-er Charles Lindbergh in opposition to the bill to send aid to Britain as it desperately fought Hitler.
Do let me know if you have seen someone more recently copying this rhetoric. ⬇️
Claim 1: We must oppose sending aid to a close democratic ally threatened by an authoritarian, antidemocratic dictatorship because doing so would… destroy U.S. democracy.
Claim 2: It is NOT that I want the aggressor to win, of course! It’s just that, you see, we can’t control or influence who does. We need “realism.”
I must point out one sentence from JD Vance’s Munich speech that shook me to my core with particular revulsion and anger: “If Russia buying digital advertising for a few hundred thousand dollars poses a danger to your democracy, your democracy wasn't very strong to begin with."
He was, of course, talking about Romania. The excellent @Daractenus has addressed much of this undeserved assault. Here I want to point out the horrendously, sadistically injurious implications of this victim-blaming logical fallacy.
The statement is absurd, ignorant and irresponsible on its face. History is full of examples of events enacted cheaply and often by a few malicious people that inflicted grievous damage on otherwise mighty structures of power.
You should sit down for this. Read and retweet.
The new Undersecretary of Public Diplomacy, @DarrenJBeattie, is a white supremacist, a Kremlin and Beijing lover who hates Ukraine and Taiwan, and a promoter of anti-Western vitriol. Receipts below.
⬇️
As the Jan. 6 revolt was underway, Beattie, who even before the 2020 election was urging Trump to start executing a coup, tweeted at conservative black lawmakers that they must “learn their natural place” (presumably as slaves) and “take a knee to MAGA.”
This ugly creature later tweeted that only “competent white men” are fit to be in charge.
If only the world had known this and had allowed white men to be in charge: there would have been no WW1, WW2, Holocaust, genocides, Great Depression, and so on. Oh wait…
Everything we were warning about for years, on Russia and on the rise of Russia-allied virulent fascism in the West, was ignored.
So here’s one more tidbit. The “intellectual guru” of Thiel, Vance and Musk, Curtis Yarvin, called in 2022 for Russia to conquer all of Europe.
Yarvin, an intellectual charlatan and a virulent fascist with a cult following in the Silicon Valley brolligarchy, has also called for the destruction of democracy and for the mass murder of “zero-value individuals,” which he wants
turned into “biodiesel.”
In early 2022, this repulsive creature was very excited by the imminent full Russian invasion of Ukraine. Yarvin wrote that Ukraine is an artificial country (a “joke drafted by the State Department”) that is in dire need of being sorted out by Putin.
