We are in an information war, is it true that the Ukrainian security forces are snatching people off the street and then either sending them to the front line to die, or if they have the money, buying their freedom? Yes, that’s 100% true.
Is it also true that the majority of Ukraine’s elite have left the country years ago, taking with them their families and their money?
Yes, that’s also true.
What’s happening with Ukraine is that it’s a proxy, it was hijacked way back following the color revolution by the CIA and it has been a CIA proxy ever since.
The bio labs are real, the money laundering is real, the corruption is off the charts, and the more money we pump into Ukraine, the longer the war will last, the more ordinary people will die, and the more the Ukrainian oligarchs and American senators will make.
I’m hoping for favorable results from tomorrow mornings games.
I would hate to go into a villa game 20th out of 20 😐

Our election system has been captured. Until we fix that, nothing else matters. 2028 will be meaningless. And every election after that.
As usual, follow the money!
For investigative journalists who have the tenacity and chops to follow through and not be intimidated, find the common denominator in the democrats below.
James Talarico
Gina Hinojosa
Vikki Goodwin
Nathan Johnson
Sarah Eckhardt
Benjamin Flores
Clayton Tucker
Jon Rosenthal
All eight names are the 2026 Texas Democratic statewide ticket, run as a single coordinated slate. Every statewide executive office plus the U.S. Senate seat. Same ballot line, same campaign apparatus, same election night.
Shared campaign infrastructure. All eight were built into “Texas Together,” a $30M coordinated campaign the Texas Democratic Party ran jointly with the Texas Majority PAC, Powered by People (Beto O’Rourke’s group), and the Texas House Democratic Campaign Committee. Per the Tribune, they shared voter files, vendor agreements, field offices, and 30+ million mailers, and held joint rallies. That’s a literal shared-donor and shared-vendor pipeline — the party ran a competitive RFP and negotiated vendor pricing on their collective behalf.
Shared money. Texas Majority PAC is bankrolled by George Soros and family and staffed by O’Rourke campaign alumni; it covered candidate recruitment and start-up costs. Hinojosa took $1M from JB Pritzker and $1M from the Democratic Governors Association. Talarico drew Mark Cuban, Bill Nye, and Don Henley. All eight got bloc endorsements from the Houston Chronicle and Austin Statesman editorial boards.
Six of eight were sitting state legislators, all in the same Lege Democratic caucuses. Four of those six — Talarico, Hinojosa, Goodwin (House) and Eckhardt (Senate) — represent overlapping Austin/Travis County districts. Same media market, same donor Rolodex, same base.
The Texas Legislative Progressive Caucus. Hinojosa was a vice chair; Goodwin is the caucus whip. Talarico was the founding figure of the caucus (founded 2021, the session he entered). Goodwin and Eckhardt are both ranked among the most liberal members by Rice’s Mark Jones scores.
Dynasty ties to the party itself. Hinojosa’s father, Gilberto Hinojosa, chaired the Texas Democratic Party from 2012 to 2025 — the same party that built the coordinated campaign her ticket-mates rode. Eckhardt’s father was U.S. Rep. Bob Eckhardt. Johnson’s employer is Thompson Coburn LLP.
Shared platform and fate. All five legislators plus Tucker and Flores backed a data-center moratorium; the whole slate ran on affordability and anti-corruption. They won by 4.5 to 12 points and all take office in January.
Next, and most important, look for offshore accounts hidden by layers of shell companies and LLCs.
The release of the Panama Papers 3.0 is long overdue; it will shake Washington, DC, and the nation to its very core. Many family legacies and lifelong careers will end in a flash.
My last update was August 2026, when senior forensic investigators reviewing millions of documents found that 3,629 current politicians (including local, state, and federal governments, attorneys general, district attorneys, and 112 federal judges) have ‘hidden’ offshore bank accounts, using tactics to not only shield assets from judgments and prying eyes, but to circumvent taxes.
Not too bright. They are all using the same core group of a handful of offshore ‘asset protection’ firms. 🤡
The typical scheme these offshore ‘asset protection’ firms set up, costing their clients 6, even 7 figures in legal fees, can be as simple as:
Kickbacks/Dirty Money → Law Firm → Shell Company 1 (Panama) → Shell Company 2 (British Virgin Islands) → Shell Company 3 (Swiss Bank) → Legitimate Business, with additional loops like Shell Company 1 → Shell Company 3 and back.

I wouldn’t so much call it outrage as I would call it fear.
They know that Trump is not just going roll over and play dead for them, he fully intends to be in control as POTUS for the remainder of his term!
I think the Democrats are going to have to make a choice, increase the funding for Ukraine or use that funding for their free Medicare, education and other social programs. The alternative would be to increase taxes and I hardly think that’s going to be very popular with the people who voted for them.

NYT: Staff tied to Peltola’s campaign recruited a retired teacher named Daniel J. Sullivan to run against GOP Sen. Dan Sullivan.
Reported goal: confuse voters and siphon votes in Alaska’s razor-thin Senate race.
Texts and interviews documented the effort. Campaign denied it.
Ballot-stacking is a legal tactic both parties have used. Alaska Supreme Court ruled state law does not require candidates to run in “good faith.”
Trump’s DOJ is investigating and sued to block certification if the second Sullivan’s votes could decide the outcome. That condition is now met. Dirty politics, or just politics?
From Grok:
This clip is a known fake, and it’s been circulating since at least May twenty twenty-five. Ukraine’s VoxCheck team reverse-searched it back then and traced it to a Russian Telegram channel called Frontovye Zametki. Their staging flags match exactly what people spotted today: the shot is hidden behind a soldier’s back, no blood, no insignia on the uniforms, rehearsed dialogue, and no location you can identify.
They also found the same woman appearing in an earlier clip where she’s supposedly being lowered into a well by recruitment officers — same voice, same clothes. One actress, two different atrocity stories.
So The Empire Watch didn’t break news. They took an eighteen-month-old debunked clip, slapped a fresh caption on it about American taxpayers, and posted it from an account created twelve days ago with barely a thousand followers. That’s the whole origin story: recycled propaganda, new wrapper.
One more thing worth knowing — this fits a pattern Microsoft tracks called Storm fifteen sixteen, a Russian influence operation that’s been pumping out fake Ukraine atrocity videos through brand-new X accounts since twenty twenty-three. New account, viral clip, maximalist caption. It’s the signature.

“Robert F. Kennedy cares more about human beings and health and the environment than anybody.
“I’m going to let him go wild on health.
“I’m going to let him go wild on the food.
“I’m going to let him go wild on medicines.”
He’s right, it’s classed as coercive behavior, and intimidation.
Slotkin is a good example of somebody who should never hold off it, to tell serving members of the military to disobey their commander-in-chief and to threaten college aged people if they should ever go work in the Trump administration, that’s a level of hatred and insanity that a politician should never have.

What happened in America is what Islamists call “Ballot-Box Jihad.” Muslim Brotherhood mosques in Michigan and elsewhere urged people to vote for candidates because they were Muslim, not because of their policies, qualifications, or whether they were Democrats or Republicans. This is where democracy becomes dangerously vulnerable: when the religious authority of the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood is used to dictate political loyalty, the ballot box risks becoming an extension of the pulpit. Islamists decided who would represent you in Congress.
The long voting lines of Muslim women and men: what should have been a celebration of democratic freedom was instead a religious Islamist mobilization. Those voters were pressured with a cruel message: vote for Abdul El-Sayed or risk being branded a traitor to your faith.
When a vote becomes a religious obligation, democracy loses its freedom. When a mosque dictates political allegiance, conscience becomes a hostage.
America was built on freedom of religion, not freedom for Islamist jihadists to command the ballot box.
A democracy must protect the right to worship God and, equally, the right to vote without fearing those who claim to speak for Him.

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump launches IMMEDIATE DOJ criminal probe into Democrats threatening EXTORTION against his admin officials and allies — SPECIFICALLY naming Sen. Elissa Slotkin
"The imprisonment should be against these EXTORTIONISTS, and Republicans should get smart, fast! Threatening letters have been sent to many people, all innocent, from Democrat Political Leaders. By copy of this statement, I am ordering the Department of Justice to look into this criminal act, immediately!"
HARDBALL TIME! 🔥
The Dems were ALREADY threatening new Chief of Staff Stephen Miller. Trump is acting fast.
"The Democrats are going around threatening a lot of people, including the Attorney General of the United States, and others, with Impeachment and many other forms of punishment, even though they admit they have no reason to do so, and there have been no impeachable acts committed, or even thought of, by the victims of this illegal process."
"This is extortion at the highest level, and they should be held accountable for this. Also, they’re threatening our Donors, some of the most respected people anywhere in the World, with imprisonment, and many other levels of punishment, just because they happen to be Republicans, or Republican supporters."
"This is Weaponization and Lawfare at another level. The Senator from Michigan, Elissa Slotkin, is saying that she is going to go after all young people that believe in Republican Values, and that give even the slightest inclination to be a Republican."
Time for no mercy. Dems are already over-reaching from the midterms!
I can’t tell you how annoyed I am at the Senate Republicans, and how betrayed I feel by them.
I’m now seeing this, and I’m fully expecting another round show trials and wall-to-wall media coverage
The perfect example of that is here in Maine, where we have seen mass migration of folks coming in from California, and New York.
They settle in beautiful coastal communities where they pay over the odds for their houses, thereby denying the local population any chance of living amongst them, and then they vote for the Democrats, who then raise taxes on people who can ill afford to pay them.
