1/ After 3.5 years of full scale war, I know who’s real and who’s just here for the vibes. Who fundraises. Who delivers. Who risks. And who clings to the war for attention, validation, or Twitter fame. 2/ If you come after someone who’s actually helping Ukraine, because your little Twitter fave got their feelings hurt , I don’t care who you are or what flag is in your bio. You’re not on our side.

1/ Iryna Danilovych is being tortured in a russian prison.
Her crime? Being a nurse, a journalist, and telling the truth in occupied Crimea.
Now she’s rotting in Colony No. 7, Zelenokumsk. 🧵 Image 2/ She can’t sleep, bright lights are on 24/7.
Machines blast noise for hours.
She has a severe ear infection, constant pain, risk of brain inflammation.
No treatment. No care.
This is deliberate. This is torture.

🧵They returned him home broken. Not by age or illness, but by russian torture.

Valeriy Zelenskyy survived 39 months in russian captivity.
He was strong enough to make it home.
But not strong enough to survive what they did to him. ⬇️ Image 1/ Valeriy was no stranger to service.
A karate practitioner. A police officer. A businessman.
And when russia launched its full-scale war, he joined the 53rd Mechanized Brigade to defend Ukraine.
He became the face of recruitment posters.
Handsome. Stoic. Brave.
A protector. Image

1/ Let’s talk about religion in Ukraine, because people like @RepLuna either don’t know or don’t care to tell you the truth. 🧵

Ukraine isn’t a religious monolith. Zelenskyy did NOT “ban the Orthodox Church.” Let’s break it down. Image 2/
There’s no such thing as “the Orthodox Church.”

What was banned in Ukraine is the Russian Orthodox Church, we call it FSB church, the one actively working for the Kremlin.

Other churches? They’re alive and well. Thriving.

What really happened in Olenivka?
The world moved on. The UN stayed silent.
But a new report just uncovered the truth russia desperately tried to bury.
This was no accident. It was a calculated massacre.
🧵Let’s break it down: Image 1/ On July 28, 2022, a brutal attack on Ukrainian POWs in barracks 200 of the Olenivka prison shocked the world. russia blamed Ukraine. But the truth? It’s far more sinister.
A new independent CHRAC report dismantles russia’s lies. Using open-source data, survivor testimonies, satellite imagery, and ballistics, the report proves it was a russians.

RT:
Today is the International Day in Support of Victims of Torture.
The more we share the stories of victims of rape, the more likely it is that justice will be served.
Olena Pekh, an employee of the Horlivka Art Museum, was kidnapped, tortured, and forced to commit suicide by Russians. ⬇️Image After the creation of the "DPR," Olena and her daughter moved to Odesa to escape repression. Two years later, her mother had a stroke, so Olena began to return to care for her. Eventually, the russians kidnapped Olena and later sentenced her to 13 years in prison due to her clear pro-Ukrainian stance.

Let’s talk about Nazism.
What it is. What it’s not.
Why Ukrainian nationalism ≠ Nazism.
And why russia, not Ukraine, is dangerously close to Nazi Germany in 1941.

Read. Save. Share. Image 1.
Nazism = a totalitarian ideology rooted in:
– Racism & antisemitism
– Imperialism & militarism
– Cult of the leader
– Mass propaganda
– Political repression
– Genocide

This is what Hitler’s Germany stood for.

1/ Today I saw the news that in Kyiv, they finally changed the WWII monument’s dates from 1941 to 1939 — the year the actual war began. Image 2/ If you didn’t know, the USSR and russia always taught in schools that WWII started in 1941, when Hitler attacked the USSR. I remember being taught this in school as well.

1/ Here’s what we know so far from Ukrainian media channels about the talks in Jeddah so far: 2/ 🔹 No territorial concessions were discussed. There were no talks about recognizing occupied territories as russian. Ukraine remains firm — our land is ours.

1/ I’ve talked about this before, but I feel it’s important to say it again. The war in Ukraine isn’t just about territory — it’s about generations of trauma. Trauma that lingers, shapes habits, and gets passed down like a family heirloom. 2/ My grandmother was born in 1939. She grew up knowing hunger, war, fear, and loss. I remember as a kid, whenever I’d eat an apple, she’d tell me to eat everything — the seeds, the core — nothing could go to waste.

1/ This memo reveals how far Elon & his extremist allies are willing to go to shape the future of America—and it should scare everyone. This isn’t just about social media. It’s about consolidating power, controlling narratives, and gutting democracy. 2/ The memo, drafted by figures tied to Peter Thiel & the far-right NRx (Neo-reactionary) movement, lays out a clear roadmap: dismantle media, purge government agencies, and establish a new authoritarian power structure.

1/ Olenivka was a planned execution. Almost two years later, we now have a near-minute-by-minute reconstruction of what happened in that prison on the night of July 28-29, 2022. This was not an accident. It was a calculated war crime. #OlenivkaMassacre #RussianWarCrimes 2/ Ukrainian & foreign experts, with testimonies from survivors, have pieced together the truth: russia deliberately murdered Ukrainian POWs. They were locked in a newly converted barracks, unable to escape. Then came the explosions.

1/ Oh for f***’s sake, I’m tired of all these takes on what kind of “agreement” Ukraine needs to sign, what will be “good” for us. Spoiler alert: you are not Ukrainians. You didn’t lose your friends. You didn’t lose your homes to russian missiles. You don’t have loved ones in occupation. 2/ Let me remind you: Ukraine tried to make agreements with russia before. Every time, they broke the deal. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. From ceasefires to Minsk agreements—they don’t respect agreements. They only use them to regroup, rearm, and continue their terror.

1/ I am angry. I don’t respect grifters, no matter who they are. Mykhailo’s sacrifice for Ukraine is real, but since 2022, he’s been fundraising for personal expenses—his cat’s neutering, his son’s driving test fees. Are you kidding me? During a war? 2/ This is what makes me furious. While defenders on the frontlines are freezing, hungry, and short on drones or munitions, you’re sending your money to someone not even in Ukraine for personal comforts. Do you understand what you’re doing?

1/ The events in Syria reveal cracks in russian regime, echoing the USSR before its collapse. By 1989, the Soviet Union was crumbling. A critical move by the Middle East then brought it to its knees. Today, we need the same bold action to stop russia. 2/ Saudi Arabia flooding the market with cheap oil in the 80s drove prices down and sped up the Soviet collapse. If they did it again now, pushing oil below $40/barrel, russia’s fragile economy would spiral out of control.

1/ The situation near Pokrovsk is devastating. We’re not just losing land—we’re losing culture, history, and identity. This town, often called the birthplace of the world-famous “Shchedryk” (known globally as “Carol of the Bells”), is being shelled and destroyed by ru every day. 2/ As the world immerses itself in the magic of “Carol of the Bells” this holiday season, will it remember that the city where Mykola Leontovych likely wrote this melody may not hold out until Christmas?

1/ During the body exchanges between Ukraine and russia, 88 bodies of tortured Ukrainian citizens have been returned. These were people whose families were assured by the International Committee of the Red Cross (@ICRC ) that they were in russian captivity. 2/ According to Dmytro Usov, secretary of the Coordination Headquarters, the ICRC’s confirmation of captivity provides no guarantee that Ukrainians will return alive. "If we believed the Red Cross would protect prisoners, unfortunately, this is not the case," he said.

1/ It’s okay to feel devastated and heartbroken right now. Take a day or two to be sad - feel it all. But then, get back in the fight. The war is not over. We can’t just retreat into our corners, feeling safe but miserable. There’s work to do. 2/ There are countless ways to fight back. Start by getting active in your own community. Keep an eye on your local elections. We can’t afford to only show up every 4 years - being politically active is a constant effort. It’s about building strong communities and holding our representatives accountable.

1/ Let’s dive into the issues I’ve been raising about Mriya Report (MR) since 2022. This all started when Yehuda, Alex, and others hijacked Walter Report followers and speakers to push their own agenda. It wasn’t just a shift - it was a deliberate move to create their own narrative, with JJS helping by writing flattering articles.Image 2/ MR has repeatedly platformed problematic speakers like Anton Gerashenko, Valentyn Nalyvaichenko, Tsepkalo, Karl Voloh, Ilya Ponomarev, James Vasquez, Ripley’s Heroes, Nance etc. The rumors of MR paying speakers and co-hosts began circulating in 2023, raising serious questions about transparency and motives.

🧵 1/ I’ve been calling out the Georgian Legion (@georgian_legion) for a lack of transparency, and the responses I’ve received have been… intense. It’s time to address these messages and make one thing clear: Accountability matters. Let’s break it down.👇 2/ Many have accused me of attacking or “sitting around” in the US. This isn’t about attacking anyone - this is about asking simple questions. Where are the reports? Where is the transparency? Asking for clarity doesn’t make someone an enemy of Ukraine. In fact, it strengthens our collective support. If you’re fighting on the ground, prove it. Show us how funds are being used.

1/ Today, for the first time, I truly felt the intensity of physical pain and disgust.

Listening to intercepted conversations between russians and their mothers and wives, against the backdrop of destroyed Ukrainian lives, was enough.

1.5 hours of this horror - enough to confirm that they know everything. And they understand everything. 2/ 1. A russian soldier tells his mother how a Ukrainian woman and her two children were killed in front of him. He relished the story. And she responded that those innocent civilians were “enemies, fascists, they deserved it.”

This means they deliberately kill civilians.
