For anyone who doesn’t understand how dictatorship works here is a sample. With Trump potentially coming to power US outlets have been censoring critical coverage and not making endorsements in fear of retribution or trying to curry favor with Trump. Should he win media will become unrecognizable and it will happen very fast We will only have a small handful of investigative journalists trying to document corruption who will either have to leave US or deal with intimidation/threats. Have seen this story before and don’t understand why so many Americans can’t understand what is happening

Trump had at least 7 calls with war criminal Putin since he left office.
Don’t forget a binder of raw Russian intelligence ‘disappeared’ when Trump left office.

How many calls did Trump have with our allies? His admiration is for war criminal genocidal thugs When it comes to Trump and Russia stories are reported and journalists move on. Why was there no investigation into this? cnn.com/interactive/20…

Surprise surprise

Doc filed in US have revealed that Netanyahu’s son Yair Netanyahu had commercial ties with an American company called Parlement Technologies, former parent company of far right controversial Parler, that was hosted by Russia temporarily haaretz.com/israel-news/20… I remember looking into Parler, its ties to Russia, and the Russian company DDoS. Even using a VPN somehow the director of DDoS company knew I was looking into government contracts w the company and within hours looked into my LinkedIn profile.

Told ya back in 2016 that Ken Vogel was corrupt. While Russia was attacking the 2016 election he was laying the groundwork to blame Ukraine. And used sources like Russian agent Derkach, Telizhenko, etc. Vogel spread so much Russian disinformation including gaslighting that Trump was tough on Russia and sanctions against him. Yeah right! And he blocked me when I called him out for knowingly spreading Russian disinformation. Another one never held accountable

Not even a week after the DOJ indictment showing how Russia uses Americans to push Russian propaganda @thehill decides to publish an opinion piece by Don Jr and RFK that could have easily been written by Russian intelligence. WTH? And it’s not the Ukraine war. Ukraine never attacked anyone and is the victim of a terrorist regime invading a sovereign country and committing genocide. Eliminating Ukrainians has been stated by various Russian officials on multiple occasions as the end goal

In light of today’s news of DOJ exposing Russia’s disinformation operations via Tenet Media and American influencers, I’m going to start a thread on others besides Benny Johnson, Tim Pool, etc who should be investigated. Drop your Western propagandists below ⬇️

Some of the obvious onesImage

This is the ad Trump placed calling for the death penalty of the now exonerated Central Park Five.

If only America would have listened to New Yorkers who know how horrific, racist, misogynistic, corrupt, and narcissistic Trump is Image And here is an article from then timesmachine.nytimes.com/timesmachine/1…

So confused,.. Trump keeps calling Kamala a communist while his first wife Ivana can from communist Czechoslovakia and her father was an informant for communist StB security services, a satellite of KGB. Meanwhile, Trump’s 3rd wife came from communist Slovenia with her father who dealt with the communist party of Yugoslavia Not to mention that Trump was obsessed with communist Soviet Union and communist Gorbachev and other Soviet leaders. Seems like Trump is communist admirer

This is something that needs to be monitored very carefully by the West. Russia looks like they are laying the groundwork using a dirty bomb to blame on Ukrainians.
It also might be part of information warfare to spread panic and fear. Will keep an eye on it Image Russian media in the past hour started reporting that Ukrainians are preparing to use a dirty bomb which is a COMPLETE LIE. Russia did the same with chemical weapons re Syria. They would report that a chemical attack is being prepared by opposition meanwhile it was Assad who carried out the chemical attack

I am really trying hard to understand this story. So Iran hacked Trump’s campaign, created an email with someone named Robert to send the Vance opposition research to media outlets? Do I have this right? washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/… I have a full understanding how adversaries continue to sow discord in our elections and focus on Russia specifically for that. However, the tactics by Iran make little sense and the timing is curious with all the news swirling that people around Trump want Vance out.

Reminder that while Trump continues calling Kamala a “communist” he was the one obsessed with the brutal Soviet Union in the 1980s, obsessed with Soviet leaders, and traveled to communist Soviet Union in 1987 with travels arranged by KGB’s Intourist getting the best treatment Maybe Trump’s obsession with throwing around the word communist is nostalgia

This hostage release may be happening as Fox News and WSJ are reporting that Evan Gershkovich will be released tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed First I want to see whether this is true and will only believe it when I see everyone released. My next question is did Trump know about this deal and was he trying to sabotage by signaling to Russia to wait until election

So this morning there are reports that fibre optic cables were targeted in an attack in France, an arson attack on rail cables in Germany, and a cellular network tower knocked down in Finland. Pretty sure I know who is behind all these sabotage and terrorist attacks and hope the West wakes up Link to France. Reminder a Russian FSB agent was just arrested for planning attacks during Olympics amp.dw.com/en/france-tele…

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are building a luxury resort in Albania that will be managed by Aman Resorts, owned by Russian businessman Vladislav Doronin, Reminder that Doronin among other things is also Blavatnik’s partner (front man for Kremlin)

Of course, Ivanka and Kushner continue to take Russian money sarajevotimes.com/ivanka-trump-i…

Even North Korea is asserting its power over Russia. An NK official asked members of the Russian delegation, including Lavrov, who entered a hall to leave because Kim Jong Un must enter the hall first.
Seeing Russia groveling in NK and making all sorts of agreements out of desperation is not what I expected in this lifetime There is a reason that Putin hasn't visited NK in decades. As he becomes weaker and more of a pariah guess he must take what is offered to him

The European countries that Russia has deeply infiltrated for decades and funded political parties are the same countries that are moving towards populism. France, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Italy, etc showed us the results today and it should serve as a wake up call. Russia doesn’t create the domestic issues but is excellent at pouring fuel on the fire to cause maximum damage. I worked on Russian operations in Europe and saw how some countries were more vulnerable to Russian influence. Especially when Russia floods certain political parties with cash while exacerbating issues and spreading targeted mass disinformation

Russia has been funding and providing all logistical support to far-right parties and Nazi groups. Russia even trained Nazi groups in its paramilitary camps inside Russia. Russia has been doing the same in US and targets both extremes for maximum chaos and to implode our countries This is just one of the so many operations Russia is carrying out to target every sector of our society

How does CNN have a segment on a Silicon Valley fundraiser for Trump by David Sacks and Musk without mentioning that both have become full blown Kremlin propagandists. The failure by media in providing crucial details is mind blowing. Of course they hate Biden because Putin does They were discussing Silicon Valley turning on Biden and finally got to who is hosting this 300k per person event. Might as well be the Kremlin doing this. No difference and zero mention by CNN on the background of who these people are

France has detained a 26-year-old Russian-Ukrainian man on suspicion of planning a violent act after he injured himself in an explosion. The man was making bombs in a hotel.

Looks like the terrorist state was planning a terrorist attack lemonde.fr/en/france/arti… Russian agents are crawling everywhere and really must all be captured. What’s interesting after checking all the articles is that the majority say Ukrainian-Russian while a handful say Russian Ukrainian
