Big Win For The City Of Houston (& London), I suspect

let's see if we can trace Texas oil & British energy firms to this curious "Bokyo Towers" oil platform Ukraine just seized

dunno yet, we're doing it live. follow along for the fun

apnews.com/article/russia…
ok this literally took 3 seconds to crack

This Boyko Towers oil rig was bought by Naftogaz in 2011. Naftogaz is Ukraine's state-owned oil & gas giant at the center of the Burisma scandal.

When Russia took over Boyko Towers by force in 2015, the Naftogaz investment went to shit
Image
Image
Here's why that matters: Naftogaz is the crown jewel of the joint Houston/London Grand Ukraine Energy Play

For a decade the Chevron Houston right & Shell UK Soros left had 2 goals:

1. Privatize Naftogaz to own its profits
2. Kill Gazprom; Naftogaz gets those billions instead


Image
Image
Image
Image
Lo and behold, Chevron (Houston gang) signed a $10 billion deal w/ Naftogaz in 2013. That same year, Shell (London gang) also signed a $10 billion deal with Naftogaz.

Exxon (Houston gang) signed a deal with Naftogaz in 2011. And Halliburton (Houston gang) inked Naftogaz deals


Image
Image
Image
Image
Understand: all these investments, by Chevron Exxon Halliburton & Shell, all of them dropped to dogshit in 2015 when Russia backed East Ukraine's breakaway. That's bc all the shale is in East Ukraine

Without military intervention, the Grand Ukraine Energy Play dies on the vine

Image
Image
Image
Soros owns Halliburton stock & drives Naftogaz privatization. McCain was his best friend in Ukraine

This is the Yankee - Cowboy alliance: together, they reap windfall profits by using the State Dept, Pentagon & CIA as a battering ram to secure & protect lucrative business deals


Image
Image
Image
Image
Worth noting even the company that Naftogaz bought the Boyko Towers oil rig was a UK energy firm. So British energy firms get paid on the way in (sale to Naftogaz), and they get paid on the way out (profit-sharing partnerships & stock ownership once Naftogaz is privitized) Image
It's actually kinda insane how perfectly censorship industry operations by British intelligence (Integrity Initiative, Atlantic Council DFR Lab, ISD, CCDH) compliment the financial interests of the British energy giant, Shell (formerly Royal Dutch Shell, now London-based)
To put a bow on this: How did I wake up, bleary-eyed, see a headline abt Ukraine seizing a random oil rig, & grok a Houston & London link?

Bc these 2 cities are the center of the censorship industry. The story of censorship is this foreign policy mafia taking over the Internet

BREAKING 🚨 The US State Department has just placed all 30 full-time staff at the Global Engagement Center’s remnant known as R-FIMI on leave, eliminated all 50 full-time staff positions and delivered a notice to Congress ending R-FIMI’s existence and $65 million in funding 🧵👇
This historic development today was made possible by @SecRubio and Acting Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy @DarrenJBeattie, as part of a complete restructuring of the State Department’s activities and capacities to prevent the abuses and weaponization of the past.
@SecRubio @DarrenJBeattie The development today is the State Department’s initiation of a RIF (Reduction In Force) that will permanently end the positions at GEC / R-FIMI, so there is no more reshuffling of positions or simple renamings of the office to carry out the same malign censorship efforts.

Bad Kitty has published a very important series here, with a lot of details that I think need to be cleanly organized and sense-made for a wider audience so what she’s uncovered really hits home. I’ll be going over these on tonight’s sub stream at 10pm ET

It’s important to understand the relationship between USAID external policies and immigration & refugee internal policies.

Remittances from migrants & refugees in the US provides more money to the home networks USAID sponsors in target countries than USAID itself 🧵 Image
2/ Remittances are when a migrant or refugee has money or makes money here in the US, and then sends money back to friends and relatives in their home country.

So, for example, Ukraine refugees who flee then have their lives paid for here by aid programs will send cash back home Image
3/ And indeed, this is one of the main reasons we import masses of refugees from conflict zones or war zones as part of a Pentagon effort to fund one side of a war or paramilitary struggle. The refugees’ network back home is one we want to financially capacity-build Image

If it weren’t for USAID’s censorship funding and NED’s censorship operational network, there would still be a free Internet in Brazil. And Jair Bolsonaro would still be its rightfully elected President.

The “Benz breaks news that seems too crazy to be true” to “Bombshell Congressional report showing everything is true” 2 years later pipeline remains undefeated 👑
See the FFO report and thread that broke this whole story and network open:
The link for the original FFO report on all this (25 pages long, 250 hyperlinks, 15 embedded videos with confessions from all key actors involved) migrated to this new link since we first posted the above thread: foundationforfreedomonline.com/dhs-censorship…

2 weeks after Tucker interviewed Pavel, the CIA-founded Radio Free Europe (run directly by the CIA for its first 20 years), ran a long piece insinuating Russia was secretly controlling Telegram & Ukraine must seize control of it instead as a military intelligence imperative. Image
Straight out of a Benzpill lecture, the piece begins by lauding how wonderful Telegram is for (CIA-backed) rent-a-riots in Belarus, Iran, & in Russia itself. It applauded Telegram’s 2014-2020 era bc Pavel never gave in to the foreign gov’ts the CIA was using Telegram to topple.

72% of Ukraine uses Telegram. It was only 20% 2 years ago. So now everyone, including Ukraine’s military & high-level politicians, are all there using it for war & business. If Russia has a Telegram backdoor, the CIA-founded media org argued, Ukraine is totally, totally screwed. Image
