If you don’t want Russia to fight Ukraine over there, don’t use Ukraine to fight Russia from here.

Those damning emails attributed to me may or may not have been fabricated. There exists no technology which would enable me to find out whether I sent those damning emails. It's just one of God's ineffable mysteries.
It was a Russian hack and leak operation that produced content that may be edited, distorted or fake. I was the victim of a serous crime. You are the victim of Russian disinformation. Read more about "tainted leak" operations here: citizenlab.ca/2017/05/tainte…

This piece was inevitable: it shows Ukraine's grain export through the black sea are going everywhere but Africa. Not surprising! Africa and hunger was never a concern for those that cried so loudly and pointed fingers at Russia for "starving Africa".

Rainwater almost everywhere on Earth has unsafe levels of ‘forever chemicals’, according to new research.
How has this happened and what’s the fallout? 🧵

I'm on vacation right know so I finally managed to do more reading on #Xinjiang. In the process I found something stunning, something that was hidden in plain sight all along, something that proves that the #genocide advocates were lying the entire time and continue to do so.

EXCLUSIVE: Over 1/3rd of DoD contracts in Afghanistan — worth $37bn — went to contractors who are not identifiable in publicly available contracting databases.
$37bn in taxpayer funds were spent with no disclosure or transparency. @CostsOfWar responsiblestatecraft.org/20…

"The Pentagon didn’t provide casualty estimates for Ukrainian forces."
Reporters acting as stenographers for Pentagon claims about Russian casualties might ponder why that is. Another question: where are the graves/trucks for all these tens of thousands of dead Russian soldiers?
As many as 80,000 Russian troops have been wounded or killed in less than six months of fighting in Ukraine, the Pentagon said Monday, the first time the U.S. military announced its estimates of the toll of the invasion on Russia on.wsj.com/3p5OR2w

Starting when it investigated Trump for a fictitious conspiracy with Russia, the FBI has given media outlets a lot of free content, and profit. I don’t understand why FBI brass don’t just cut out the middle man and launch their own news network:

Note how @TwitterSafety will never suspend this Ukrainian government account for spreading dangerous disinformation. (I'm not advocating that they do suspend it, just noting the double-standard)
URGENT: Russian troops have wired energy units of Zaporizhia nuclear power plant with explosives. Major General Vasilyev, commander of the garrison stationed at the plant, announced readiness to blow up the plant, leading to a nuclear catastrophe. 1/3

So is this how the legendary rules-based international order works? No one can dictate where one US official can travel, but the US can dictate where whole nations on a continent can import goods from and what to import?

As it massacres Palestinians, "Israel enjoys the full support of the so-called international community, the same people who lecture us day and night about human rights and the rules-based international order."

START is the last treaty left that limits the nuclear weapons stockpiles of US & Russia (Trump killed the other major one, INF, but that inconvenienced the Russiagate narrative, so was widely ignored and downplayed 👍🏼).
This is the latest sign of the dangerous path we’re on:
