In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce an American social media personality, Dominick "Dom Lucre" McGee (@dom_lucre). He's best-known for lying about absolutely everything, and for spreading QAnon-related conspiracy theories and disinformation on the Russo-Ukrainian War.

1/21 Image
Based on Dom Lucre, Dom Lucre is a massively popular Renaissance Man, who's dabbled successfully in military, hip hop, financial advising, philanthropy, politics and of course "breaking narratives". Hell, he even wrote an (everybody)Wiki about himself!

Image
In many ways, Dominick is the George Santos for the black community, as almost everything about his past has been either exaggerated or completely made-up. A Twitter user @CoffinItUp (they're great, follow them and check their substack!) has made a lot of research on Dom,..

3/21 Image
...and I'll be referencing to his investigative work quite often. First of all, Dom claims to have graduated from college in 2017 from Penn State, but they couldn't verify any diplomas or degrees. Dom then back-pedaled and said he's missing his "internship".

4/21

He's actually been enrolled to Penn State since 2017, but hasn't graduated after 6½ years. They even kicked him out once. Dom's also claimed to have obtained a certificate from Wharton University,but there's absolutely no proof of any of this:

Mr McGee has also his own business, Credit Cadabra. The site's been referred to as the "Most Searched and Serviced Financial Advising Company", which doesn't really mean anything at all. Anyway, it appears that he wrote a bunch of 5-star reviews by himself.

McGee also joined the army in 2013. He had a 4-year contract, but was allegedly generally discharged. Dom's version is that he left in order to care for his half-brother. As usual, his story is full of holes and you can read more about it here:

As is tradition with pathological liars like Santos and McGee, the lies hardly stop there. Dom's also lied about owning a 150 000 USD watch (it's a cheap copy), buying a house at the age of 22 (he was/is renting it), and having a net worth of 1,2 million USD.

Dominick has built his brand around being a black conservative who supports Donald Trump. He was also involved in the "Stop the Steal" movement, and even orchestrated his own FB group around the event called "Win the Win".

9/21
Image
Image
Most of his followers on social media came from running the group, which was also filled with QAnon references like "the storm will come." The group was also used by far-right militias for recruiting members.

10/21 Image
Dom has launched an NGO called The Citizen's Crusade, although there is no information of this organization outside of Dom's interviews, so it's probably just another made-up project of his.

11/21 Image
Dom Lucre has over half a million followers on Twitter, and his "exposures" have relatively high engagement. These posts include ridiculous claims like saying that Tom Hanks is a pedophile and it was actually Trump that got Epstein locked up.

12/21
Image
Image
He's also promoted the Pizza Gate conspiracy theory, which claims that high-profile Hollywood stars and politicians are involved in a child sex trafficking ring. As an "evidence", he posted a segment from Ben Swann's "Reality Check" TV show from Fox. Swann has promoted...

13/21

Image
Image
Image
...every conspiracy theory out there, and has made almost 7 million USD by the Russian government for his propaganda work for the South America, Indian and Chinese markets.

14/21

Image
Image
Image
As most grifters often focus on what's trending, Dom has also written about Ukraine. In one of his hot takes, he stated that Putin is "fighting the deep state in Ukraine," and that QAnon is somehow connected to human trafficking in Ukraine.

15/21
Image
Image
He also shared a slideshow that was supposed to be proof that Ukraine is infested with Nazis - too bad most of the images were from Russia.

Mistreatment of children in Ukraine is probably a remnant from the Soviet times, read more here:

Image
Image
Image
He's pushed the bioweapons lab conspiracy theory and also tried to connect Joe Biden's son, Hunter, into the production of "pandemic diseases that could be used as a bioweapons."

17/21


Image
Image
Image
Image
In addition, Dom's tweeted about the "genocide in Donbas". On 14 Jul 2023, one of Prigozhin's "trolls" revealed the "Donbas genocide" victims were actually paid actors. He also forgot to mention that a lot of the civilians died in Donbas came from the down shooting of MH17.
18/21
Image
Image
In Dom's view, the 2014 Revolution of Dignity was a CIA-orchestrated coup. His source for this is a far-left fake news blog, MROnline. He's also suggested that Zelensky is a war criminal and that the US provoked the war with Russia.

You know, all the classics.

19/21

Image
Image
Image
Dom is definitely trying to make his way into conservative politics, and in the current state of "post-truth politics" he could actually make it.

That's probably why he's a "black conservative" supporting Trump, as the truth is absolutely irrelevant within the MAGA gang.

20/21


Image
Image
Image
Image
To conclude: Dominick McGee is an opportunist, attention-seeking grifter who's trying to make money by spreading disinformation and conspiracy theories. He follows every "current thing" in order to garner to his "fans", while trying to make a quick buck.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll discuss the absolute state of X in January 2025. Since its acquisition by Elon Musk, this platform has rapidly transformed into his personal political tool and a breeding ground for hate speech and disinformation.

1/22 Image
Not everyone is following this shitshow as closely as I am, so I thought it would be good to write a summary of all the changes that have happened on this forum and outside of it. These changes have drastically changed how the platform operates and who gets “a voice” here.

2/22 Image
Image
Elon’s team has been tweaking the algorithm many times after the takeover. One of these tweaks happened already around Nov 2022, when the platform heavily suppressed the visibility of pro-Ukraine accounts. This change was then noticed & reported by many pro-Ukraine accounts.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce a Venezuelan bus driver, politician & dictator, Nicolás Maduro (@NicolasMaduro). He’s best-known for ruining Venezuela, turning it into a dictatorship, and for collaborating with other authoritarian regimes like Russia, Iran & Belarus.

1/22 Image
His exact birthplace has been questioned, but most sources agree that Mr. Maduro was born in Caracas, Venezuela. Maduro was raised in a Catholic family, but at some point became a follower of Indian Hindu guru Sathya Sai Baba and even visited the guru in India back in 2005.

2/22 Image

Nicolás’ introduction to leftist politics happened during the 80s, when he acted as an unofficial trade unionist and as bodyguard for José Vicente Rangel, who later worked as a foreign minister under Hugo Chávez. He also visited Havana, Cuba, where he “studied communism”,…

In today’s #vatniksoup, I’ll introduce an Estonian politician and propagandist, Aivo Peterson. He’s best-known for travelling to Donbas and Mariupol to produce pro-Kremlin propaganda, and for trying to create a pro-Russia separatist movement in Estonia.

1/16 Image
Peterson is what I call a “decoy vatnik” - someone who’s so overtly pro-Kremlin that their activities draw a lot of attention (think Johan Bäckman in Finland), and the Putin bootlickers who work through business and politics can operate in peace.

2/16 Image
Image
Aivo hails from Ida-Viru, a region populated mostly by Russians. His father was Russian — his birthname was Krylov, but he later took his mother’s surname Peterson. Before becoming a full-time Kremlin propagandist, he worked as a border guard, masseur & real estate agent.

"Grab your popcorn - Loomer and Elon are going at it!

This might be the first time I agree with her actually. Image
Elon calling Americans "retarded", this should end well. Image
And now Elon removed Loomer's blue tick, reducing her reach on X dramatically. Image

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce an American radio host and propagandist, Scott Horton (@scotthortonshow). He’s best known for blaming Russia’s genocidal war against Ukraine on the US, and for publishing a 700-page book full of Kremlin propaganda.

1/23 Image
Most of you probably remember Scotty from this recent episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, in which he was schooled for his revisionist propaganda by Ukrainian volunteer and activist Anastasiya Paraskevova (@UkrainianAna).

2/23
Let’s start with the obvious - Scott Horton is a hardcore Kremlin apologist who sees nothing wrong with what Putin does, but strongly condemns anything that Ukrainians do to defend themselves. For Horton,the enemy is the US and all of its allies. The way this works is that…
