Clear words from @Bundeskanzler Scholz: “This bitter chapter in our continent’s history — instigated by Putin in his imperialist madness — will end with a free #Ukraine joining the European Union as a full member.”
This clarity is refreshing. But the complicit elephant in the room remains: what consequences will there be for 🇩🇪 politicians & businesses who appeased, enabled, &/or actively aided Russia’s “imperialist madness”? From #Schröder to @ManuelaSchwesig & beyond, 🇩🇪 must clean house
The other elephant in the room: #NATO. @Bundeskanzler Scholz hasn’t yet accepted the need for full NATO membership for #Ukraine, with security guarantees during the ascension process. As with heavy weapons deliveries, we must expect Germany to arrive late to that party too.

Ich habe großen Respekt vor @MelnykAndrij & vor dem Stress & Trauma, dem er durch das kafkaeske Spektakel in Berlin letztes Jhr ausgesetzt war. Umso enttäuschender, dass er jetzt so ausrast 👇
Das schadet v.a. der 🇺🇦 & dem Vertrauen, das @Makeiev erfolgreich mit 🇩🇪 aufgebaut hat Image
Sein Ton ist völlig unwürdig & seine Kritik inhaltlich unzutreffend. ZB:
-Seitdem @Makeiev im Amt ist, sind mehr 🇩🇪 Waffen (inkl Panzer!) in 🇺🇦 angekommen, nicht weniger
-Es war nicht hauptsächlich @MelnykAndrij sondern intl Druck aus 🇺🇸 et al, der 🇩🇪 dazu brachte, mehr zu helfen
Wir sind alle durch ein klares Ziel geeint: Sieg & Freiheit für die gesamte #Ukraine 💪 Nichts ist wichtiger als das. In diesem Sinne, lieber @MelnykAndrij: hören Sie bitte auf. Dieser bizarre, unnötige Streit ist eine Ablenkung, die der 🇺🇦 schadet & somit indirekt Russland hilft

Brisant: Das Kreml-Komplott, um extreme Linke & Rechte zu vereinen & 🇩🇪 Unterstützung für 🇺🇦 zu untergraben
"Mindestens 1 #Wagenknecht nahestehende Person & mehrere #AfD-Mitglieder waren zum Zeitpunkt der Ausarbeitung der Pläne in Kontakt mit 🇷🇺 Beamten"
washingtonpost.com/world/2023/04/…
"Die Dokumente zeigen Treffen zwischen Kreml-Beamten & russischen Politstrategen sowie die Anweisung an die Strategen...sich auf #Deutschland zu konzentrieren, um Antikriegsstimmung in Europa zu stärken & die Unterstützung für die #Ukraine zu dämpfen"
washingtonpost.com/world/2023/04/…
"Die Dokumente...zeigen die direkten Versuche des Kremls...eine neue Koalition zwischen #Wagenknecht, der extremen Linken & #AfD zu schmieden...🇩🇪 sollte zum 'Brennpunkt' von Moskaus Bemühungen werden, die Unterstützung für 🇺🇦 in Europa zu untergraben."

In 2003 I was skipping school to protest against the US invasion of #Iraq. 20 years later I’ve put normal work & life on hold to support the defense against Russia’s invasion of #Ukraine. What’ve we learned since & what hasn’t changed? A short thread 🧵 ImageImage
1. Public opinion means nothing to entrenched party interests. Whether W’s GOP or Scholz’s SPD, it’s party & cronies before nat’l & intl security every time. Protests don’t deter party-first politicians. But threat of serious consequences can (as intl pressure on Scholz showed).
2. Western hypocrisy is dictators’ greatest weapon. From the ‘War on Terror’ to police brutality (esp but not only in 🇺🇸), from preaching human rights while profiting off of & enriching those who abuse them (esp but not only in 🇩🇪), we undermine the freedom we purport to defend.

These photos were taken a while ago but got delayed due to folks being busy with (REDACTED). Thank you to 💙Everyone💛 who supported & shared the tourniquet campaign! You helped save hundreds of lives (and made some medics very happy, like @AngryMuza here :)
The campaign was so successful we were able to order Quikclot & combat gauze on top of the tourniquet goal too. Big thanks again to our supplier highthreatinnovations.com /IG @traumapak, a small biz founded by former medics who donated $500 worth of combat medic bags on top❤️‍🩹
The supplies went to front line units in Zaporizhia, Kharkiv, Donetsk, & Mykolaivska oblasts. These brave medics are out there every day risking their lives to save others 💙✊ Every tourniquet & pack of combat gauze or Quikclot we sent is helping these medics save someone's life

Remember the 🇩🇪 IT company @janboehm revealed is a russian company founded by an ex-KGB agent? I spoke w/ cybersecurity experts about it & yes, it gets worse.
🚨 #Protelion had opportunity to compromise every company that used their software & give Moscow access to their network
Protelion/Infotecs sold software in 🇩🇪 for yrs that scans IT networks for vulnerabilities *from the inside*. That means:
❗️ They could report vulnerabilities to russia
‼️ Bc the software is installed by the admin they'd be able to plant other software & time bombs in the network
That means **any of the 1M+ companies that have used Infotecs/Protelion software may be potentially spied on & compromised by russia**

German natl security is such a joke we need comedians to help dig up Russian moles.
A 🧵 on the investigation by @janboehm & @policy_networks on more corrupt 🇩🇪 companies & officials helping Russia attack us from within

"Cybersecurity in Germany is in danger - by the head of cybersecurity in Germany."
Meet @ArneSchoenbohm, son of a CDU politician & President of 🇩🇪 IT security agency @BSI_Bund since 2016, despite criticism he's an unqualified "Cyber-Bullshitting" lobbyist
sueddeutsche.de/digital/it-sic…
In 2012, a few yrs before taking over at BSI @ArneSchoenbohm founded lobbying org "Cybersecurity Council of 🇩🇪". Among its members: #Protelion, a 🇩🇪 IT company that has sold security software to over 1M users in industry, govt & beyond.
Hold on did I say 🇩🇪 company? Wait for it..
