Here’s a story you probably haven’t heard unless you’re a regular Volya Radio @Volya4UA listener:
In early 2025, the U.S. government came within days of wiping out our main war-crimes database documenting Russia’s abduction of Ukrainian children.
Not by accident—by policy.

In 2022, Yale’s Humanitarian Research Lab (HRL) @HRL_YaleSPH was tasked with tracking Russian war crimes, including the deportation of Ukrainian kids.

🧵 Kolachi used to be a small fishermen town of Makrani (African origin) inhabitants . British developed it as an alternative to Bombay port due to its better strategic location and renamed it as Karachi. Newly developed city attracted Memon, Ismaili, Parsi & Jewish businessmen 
2) from Bombay as they were less influential in the Hindu dominated Bombay. Karachi was never considered a major city in Sindh before this. Hyderabad & Thatta were the major political & business hubs in Sindh. NED, Wazir Mansion, Kharadar, BVS school, Magain Shalome synagogue
3)are few examples of the establishments built in 19th century by the new immigrants, no major educational or cultural landmark was reported in Karachi before this time. Hindu Sindhi businessmen soon realised the potential of this new city and started relocating from the other
Here is my second installment of answers to the hostile questions about bitcoin that @AaronRDay posed for Thanksgiving dinner. Prepare for Christmas dinner now!
4. Did MIT Media Lab funding (including from Jeffrey Epstein) influence Bitcoin Core developers to control bitcoin's direction? (6, 17, 21)
MIT Media Lab did receive Epstein donations. But Epstein began donating to MIT in 2002, long before bitcoin was invented (2008) and well before the Media Lab became involved in bitcoin (2015) when the Bitcoin Foundation ran into financial difficulties. MIT Media Lab funded some bitcoin developers, but this doesn't mean Epstein controlled bitcoin's development or determined the block-size decision. In fact, most of the early developers associated with MIT Media Lab were large-block advocates or open to large blocks, a direction which ultimately failed. The block-size debate involved hundreds of contributors, years of public discussion, and ultimately sovereign node operators choosing which software to run.
Conflating funding sources with protocol control misunderstands how decentralized governance works. If you think a university donor can unilaterally control a global network of independent node operators, you don't understand bitcoin's architecture.

5. Can a few mining pools censor transactions if governments order them to? (8)
Three pools coordinating 60% of hashrate sounds dangerous until you understand that pools don't own or control the hardware. Individual miners can redirect their hashpower to a different pool in minutes. If a pool did attempt censorship, many miners would defect because censorship reduces revenue and undermines the value proposition of bitcoin. In the meantime, other miners would include these transactions in their blocks and would eventually get them into the blockchain.
Mining centralization is a real concern—geographic concentration, regulatory pressure, coordination risks all matter. But the incentives of the system don’t make sustained centralization viable. So far, economic incentives seem to overwhelmingly favor neutrality.

No new tips led to this arrest.
Agents worked through millions of lines of data and hundreds of thousands of pieces of evidence (such as combing through the sales of each individual component of the bombs) to find the thread that connected the pipe bombs to Brian Cole.

The political spin will be that the Biden Admin, Garland DOJ, and Wray FBI just didn't want to solve the case.
And the conspiracy spin will be that it's a cover-up and/or that Cole is a patsy, or similar.
Both spins are nonsense and false.

This is Rick Nagel, with Mike Pompeo two years ago. Guess how he connects to Brian Cole, the man arrested on suspicion of being the J6 pipe bomber...

Something BIG just happened on COMEX.
Not in price…
but in deliveries.
And that’s where the real story always hides.
565 silver delivery notices were filed in a single day.
That’s 2.8 million ounces standing for delivery.

Who took the silver?
Not retail.
Not algos.
Not tourists.
But the giants:
BofA — 401 STOPPED
JP Morgan — 342 STOPPED (1 issued)
Marex Spec — 128 STOPPED
RBC — 80 STOPPED (25 issued)
Scotia, StoneX, BNP also loading up.
These aren’t people who “speculate.”
These are firms who prepare.

Bank of America — widely reported as one of the biggest synthetic shorts in silver — is suddenly taking delivery.
When a major short starts grabbing bars, you know exactly what time it is.

Will someone PLEASE think of the poor souls persecuted just because they attack the RAF. Oh, and banks, defence groups, insurance companies, accountancy firms, logisitcs outfits, and even a bust of an Evil Jew. Thank you.
Hey, wouldn't you like to follow the brave leadership of such noble people? Especially when it comes to luminaries of the "no place for antisemitism" Labour party.
Wait, you think Jewish businesses should *not* be attacked? What is wrong with you? Are you a Zionist?
VENEZUELA’S MILITARY INTELLIGENCE CHIEF WARNS: YOUR ELECTIONS CAN BE AND HAVE BEEN RIGGED

SMARTMATIC: THE ORIGIN STORY
“Smartmatic was born as an electoral tool of the Venezuelan regime but soon derived into a tool to help keep the regime stay in power forever.” — General Carvajal Barrios. The software was engineered to control elections, not conduct them. And it’s in your state. 2/21

Carvajal Barrios places himself in the room where decisions were made. He was THREE-STAR GENERAL, Director of Military Intelligence, Deputy in the National Assembly. He WATCHED Smartmatic be weaponized. He KNOWS how the manipulation works. His letter is an insider’s confession—and a roadmap for American prosecutors. 📍⚖️ 3/21

Long COVID is far from rare. With an estimated 10% prevalence, it represents a real population-level burden.
Symptoms are varied and span many organ systems.
Long COVID is not one syndrome, but a collection of biological phenotypes, from cognitive dysfunction to microvascular and immunologic issues.

Common blood lab tests often come back normal.
This doesn’t mean the illness isn’t real - it means modern clinical diagnostics are blind to chronic, low-level immune dysregulation.
Our standard tools are optimized for acute disease, not long-term immunopathology.

#Casteism Pointing a gun at a Dalit, they said, "You're naked, hit him with 10 slippers." In Jhansi, they kicked him and made him hold his feet; the young man pleaded, "Please let me go." Four miscreants brutally beat a Dalit youth in Jhansi.

He took her home on the pretext of offering her a cigarette. Then, in four seconds, he hit her with 10 slippers. He rained down slaps, kicks, punches, and canes. He even threatened her with a pistol. He said, "Take off your clothes and get naked." @BhimArmyChief @jhansipolice

Sebi just passed it's largest ever order against a #finfluencer! Who? Avadhut Sathe. It has impounded a sum of Rs 546 cr earned by Sathe from educational courses. Here's a deep dive into the order. But first a quick summary:
1) Sebi says that under the guise of courses live trading calls were given without an RIA license.
2) False advertisements were given claiming students were making huge profits when in fact they were making losses.
Order comes just 100 days after a search was conducted against Sathe. Thread below:

Order comes just 100 days after a search was conducted against Sathe. Thread below:
Avadhut Sathe Trading Academy was launched in 2017 . Another entity was established in 2020. It had course s ranging from Rs 500 for an intro session to Rs 6.75 lakh for a mentorship program. In these sessions, students were making trades per recos given out on the live market. On 1st March 2024 Sebi issued an administrative warning to Avadhut Sathe. But he ignored it
Then, there were the misleading testimonial videos. A video of one Mr Rehan Hashmuddin Shaikh was uploaded on 9-7-2025. Here it was claimed he bought a bike from trading profits of 2.5 lakh. Mr Shaikh had actually made a loss of Rs 13,256.
