1/7 Trump has shown us — again and again — that he won’t pressure russia.

Putin has rejected every ask: ceasefires, diplomacy, meeting Zelensky.

And Trump still acts like there’s a reason to hold back.

It’s pathetic Image
2/7 Let’s be clear: Trump is the weakest president in US history.

But weakness is just the start.

He’s also the most corrupt, dishonest, unqualified, and openly traitorous.

He’s not defending America — he’s sabotaging it Image
3/7 Trump isn’t going to pressure Putin.

Putin is his idol.

Instead of confronting russia, Trump is copying it — authoritarian style, propaganda, attacks on institutions.

He’s importing Kremlin politics into the US Image
4/7 Waiting for Trump to “do the right thing” is a waste of time.

He won’t.

He’s not confused. He’s not cautious.

He’s aligned.

It’s time people stopped pretending otherwise Image
5/7 Europe has tried to play Trump’s game — staying quiet, avoiding confrontation, hoping he won’t openly back russia.

But that strategy has limits.

russia is watching.

Ukraine is bleeding.

And Trump is not on our side Image
6/7 Europe must step up.

More military aid to Ukraine.

More investment in defense industries.

More sanctions on russia.

Not just because Trump won’t — but because Europe must Image
7/7 This is the moment to stop hedging.

Trump won’t pressure russia.

So Europe must.

Ukraine is fighting for all of us — and it’s time we help Ukraine win Image

1/5 russia will remain an existential threat to Europe until it is decisively defeated.

Not contained. Not negotiated with.

Defeated.

And Ukraine is the battlefield where that must happen Image
2/5 Why? Because russia didn’t just invade Ukraine.

It invaded the idea that borders matter.

It invaded the idea that nations have the right to exist.

It invaded us all.

And it did so with genocidal intent — openly Image
3/5 This isn’t hyperbole.

russia says Ukraine “doesn’t exist.”

It erases its language, bombs its culture, kidnaps its children.

That’s genocide by the UN definition.

And if russia isn’t punished for it, it will do it again — in Ukraine or elsewhere Image

1/5 Ukraine is building an arsenal that could cripple russia’s economy.

New drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles are being developed simultaneously.

Once scaled, Ukraine won’t just defend—it will strike deep. The question is: Will the West try to stop it again? Image
2/5 Fire Point’s FP5, FP7, and FP9 missiles just hit the media with aggressive marketing.

Why now?
•Push for government orders
•Distract from corruption probes?

Regardless, these missiles look serious. Other Ukrainian firms are racing to match them Image
3/5 Ukraine’s long-range strike ecosystem is booming.

From drones to cruise and ballistic missiles, the innovation is real.

But scaling requires money.

Without it, Ukraine’s strike potential stays limited. With it? russia’s refineries, logistics, and economy are in danger Image

1/8 russia’s summer offensive failed—but the next one is already in the works.

It will be bigger, bloodier, and focused on Donetsk Oblast.

Around 100,000 russian troops are now massed near Pokrovsk, many redeployed from other fronts.

The next push is coming Image
2/8 Despite massive losses and no major gains this summer, russia is not slowing down.

It is preparing another large-scale offensive, focused on capturing the rest of Donbas.

It will also continue pushing in pressure points like Kupiansk, where Ukraine remains stretched thin Image
3/8 russia is ready to sacrifice tens of thousands more soldiers.

It shows no interest in peace.
No negotiations. No pause.

Just more war, more blood, more destruction Image

1/7 Silicon Valley’s technofascists and their allies—Musk, Thiel, Ackman, Sacks, Vance, Andreessen—aren’t just rich and powerful.

They have a vision: an authoritarian society run by far-right billionaires.

It’s elitist, authoritarian, traitorous, and dangerously under-discussed Image
2/7 Their intellectual hero is Curtis Yarvin, who wants to replace democracy with corporate monarchy.

Thiel, Vance, and Sacks openly echo this.

Project 2025 is their roadmap: dismantle institutions, centralize power, and erase checks and balances Image
3/7 They preach “freedom” but push control.

Thiel backs anti-LGBT politicians while profiting from LGBT rights as a gay man.

Musk bans critics while claiming to defend speech.

Andreessen wants to gut regulation but control platforms.

It’s hypocrisy at scale Image

1/5 Meet David Sacks — Trump’s Crypto Czar and Putin’s PR Guy.

A dangerous man too few know about.

He’s not just a tech investor. He’s shaping AI & crypto policy, pushing pro-russian narratives, and backing JD Vance.

Silicon Valley’s hard-right turn has a face—and it’s his👇 Image
2/5 Sacks helped raise millions for Trump, backed JD Vance to become Trump's VP, and now has a seat at the table shaping US policy on crypto and AI.

He talks about “freedom” but uses his platform to push Kremlin-friendly narratives and attack Ukraine.

Traitorous behavior Image
3/5 He’s repeatedly framed US support for Ukraine as a reckless war, blamed the West for escalation, and echoed talking points that align more with Moscow than Washington.

His worldview is isolationist, revisionist, pro-russian, and deeply cynical Image

1/5 Meet Peter Thiel — one of the most powerful and dangerous people in the world, yet too few people know about him.

He’s not just a billionaire.

He’s a political engineer, a surveillance capitalist, and a man quietly shaping America’s future — and not for the better Image
2/5 Thiel doesn’t believe in democracy.

He’s openly said freedom and democracy don’t mix.

He funds candidates who want to dismantle government and replace it with corporate control.

This isn’t eccentric. It’s extremist Image
3/5 He’s behind the scenes of plans to remake America — from mass surveillance to authoritarian policy blueprints.

His companies profit from control.

His vision? A future where data rules, privacy dies, and power is centralized in the hands of a few Image
