🚨 MEDIA BLACKOUT: A Ukrainian refugee fled Putin’s war, to be stabbed to death on a U.S. train by a repeat criminal repeatedly freed by Democrat policies.

The media buried it. The Left excused it.

Here’s how soft-on-crime Democrats caused the murder of Iryna Zarutska

🧵👇 Image
2/ Iryna Zarutska, 23, survived the Russian invasion—only to be killed on Aug 22 in Charlotte, NC.

Her murderer? Decarlos Brown Jr., a homeless man arrested & released 14 times for violent crimes.

Her story? Ignored for 17 days by CNN, NYT, WaPo, NBC, ABC, Reuters. Image
3/ Democrat Leaders Show “Compassion”… for the Killer

Charlotte’s Democrat Mayor Vi Lyles said:
“We will never arrest our way out of issues such as homelessness and mental health.”

Not a word for Zarutska.

This is what soft-on-crime “compassion” looks like: dead innocents. Image
4/ Wikipedia editors tried to DELETE her page, claiming “not notable.”

Axios mocked “MAGA influencers” for even raising the issue.

@glennhreynolds nailed it:

“Rabble-rousing is press power. But rabble-snoozing—keeping stories hidden—is far bigger.” Image
@glennhreynolds 5/ When George Floyd died, wall-to-wall coverage. And cities burned.

When Iryna Zarutska, a white refugee, was murdered by a black repeat offender? Silence.

The same weekend, a beloved Auburn professor was hacked to death with a machete. National media barely touched it. Image
@glennhreynolds 6/ Don't be a woman anywhere Democrats control!

Trump: “For far too long, Americans have been forced to put up with Democrat-run cities that set loose savage, bloodthirsty criminals to prey on innocent people.”

Catch-and-release policies killed Iryna. And not just her. Image
@glennhreynolds 7/ Charlotte by the Numbers:

• Crime index: 46 incidents per 1,000 residents
• Violent crime rate: 1 in 134 chance of victimization
• Last Republican mayor? 2009

16 years of Democrat rule → skyrocketing crime, few if any consequences. Image
@glennhreynolds 8/ Even @piersmorgan & @elonmusk blasted the blackout. Musk called it a hate crime.

He's right.

Meanwhile, legacy outlets delayed for weeks, then buried it under “context.”

This isn’t journalism. It’s narrative control. Image
Image
@glennhreynolds @piersmorgan @elonmusk 9/ ⚠️ The Bottom Line

• Iryna Zarutska’s blood is on the hands of Democrats who endlessly free violent criminals.
• The Enemedia helped cover it up.
• And the Left wants YOU silenced for even noticing.

America deserves leaders who defend the innocent, not excuse the guilty. Image

🚨 EV COLLAPSE: Ford & GM just waved the white flag.

After years of hype, mandates, & billions in subsidies, America’s biggest automakers are slashing electric vehicles — & refocusing on gas trucks & SUVs.

There's enough demand for Tesla.

But most people don't want EVs. 🧵👇 Image
2/ Trump kept his promise.

In July, he signed the Big Beautiful Bill ending Biden’s $7,500 EV tax credit scheme.

Without the taxpayer cash bribes, EV sales are collapsing. Automakers are panicking. Image
3/ EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin is rolling back Biden’s “endangerment finding” — the legal trick used to justify over $1 TRILLION in Green New Deal regs.

Why? Because is was pure politics dressed up as "science".

🇬🇧🚨 London just witnessed something the Enemedia never wanted you to see:

Over 100,000+ people flooded Whitehall for the “Unite the Kingdom” rally — waving crosses, flags, and demanding Britain remain Britain.

And @elonmusk showed up to say it out loud. 🧵👇 Image
@elonmusk 2/ The crowd was a sea of Union Jacks, the St. George’s Cross, the Scottish saltire, and the Welsh dragon.

Some carried wooden crosses. Others sang Christian hymns.

It looked less like a protest and more like a national revival.
@elonmusk 3/ Tommy Robinson — long targeted by the British establishment — led the rally, calling it a movement for free speech and sovereignty.

He told supporters: no masks, no drinking, no violence.

The message: discipline, unity, truth. Image

🚨 They don’t want us to “lower the temperature.” They want us silent.

Charlie Kirk’s assassination exposed the Left’s projection — and it’s backfiring. Turning Point is exploding in growth: 18,000 new chapters in two days.

Here’s the truth the Enemedia won’t say 🧵👇 Image
2/ After Charlie Kirk was gunned down, Democrats immediately demanded the Right “lower the temperature.”

But “lowering the temperature” was Charlie’s specialty.

His “Prove Me Wrong” tour engaged opponents with dignity, patience, and truth.

He debated. The Left demonized. Image
3/ The same people calling for unity now spent years demonizing conservatives:

• “Fascists” (Kamala Harris)
• “The greatest danger to America” (Tim Walz)
• “An extremism that threatens the Republic” (Joe Biden)

They never “lowered the temperature.” They lit the match. Image

🚨 BREAKING: The whole G7 just escalated the war on Russia — and they’re threatening China & India too.

For the first time, Western leaders are preparing tariffs & sanctions on countries funding Putin’s war machine.

This could bring peace...or reshape global trade.

🧵👇 Image
2/ The G7 just announced that any nation buying Russian oil or helping Moscow fund its war could face sweeping sanctions & tariffs.

That means China, India, & others who keep Putin afloat are in the crosshairs.

This isn’t just about Russia anymore. Image
3/ Why now?

• Russia is still bombing Ukraine.
• Russian drones just violated Polish airspace — NATO territory.
• Moscow controls 19% of Ukraine after 3 years of war.
• Putin promises peace...then makes war.

The West says its patience is gone. Image

🚨 ISRAEL'S QATAR STRIKE WAS LONG OVERDUE

For years, Hamas leaders lived like billionaires in Doha hotels while orchestrating terror against Israeli civilians.

Israel finally struck their headquarters in Qatar — and it should have happened years ago.

THREAD 🧵👇 Image
2/ The Safe Haven Scam

Imagine Mexico hosting Al Qaeda leaders in luxury Cancun resorts in 2002.

That’s exactly what Qatar did for Hamas. Five-star hotels. Billions in stolen aid. Command centers for war crimes.

All while sending their foolish followers to their deaths.Image
3/ The targets were evil:

• Khaled Meshaal: Hamas founder, net worth $5B
• Khalil al-Hayya: Bragged about rape & murder
• Zaher Jabarin: Hamas CFO
• Nizar Awadallah: Mastermind of civilian attacks
• Khaled Mashal: Pledged to “repeat Oct 7 until Israel is annihilated.” Image

🚨 KAMALA’S REVISIONIST HISTORY 🚨

Kamala Harris just dropped an excerpt from her new book 107 Days — and it’s pure blame-shifting, denial, and gaslighting.

She throws Biden under the bus. She blames staff. She rewrites history.

Let’s break it down 🧵👇 Image
2/ Kamala Admits Biden’s Decline… Then Denies It

Harris writes there were “months of growing panic” over Biden’s cognitive state before the June debate meltdown.

But then? She insists: “It wasn’t incapacity.”

Wait, what?! Image
3/ Harris Says Biden Shouldn’t Have Decided Alone

On Biden’s decision to drop out:

“Was it grace, or was it recklessness? … It should have been more than a personal decision.”

Translation: She's throwing her boss under the bus while taking her shot at his job. Image
