Finally out of the grey city for a bit of a free time, sun, sea and mountains…

That’s right, she will never get 34 times convicted like the felon in charge 🤡

Freedom has a price. Ukrainians are paying it for all of Europe.
Happy Independence Day, thank you, and godspeed to all who defend Ukraine, in and out of uniform.

Short history of the US Army over time

1944 - Landing in Normandy, fighting fascism
1951 - fighting communism in Korea
1961 - defending democracy against communism in Berlin
2025 - rolling out a red carpet before a bloody dictator on US soil

You guys must be really proud of yourself! 🤷‍♂️

Putin's chief propagandist tells Europe, "You want a ceasefire? I want your death".

Imagine how sick a society must be for this to be their prime-time, mainstream news.

Note the slow-zoom near the end.

Looks exactly like the one in Black Books 😉

YouTube video by Peeps Brian Eno perfectly explains selfishness of the super rich

And now I have even more respect for him 🤷‍♂️

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce a Russian propagandist, Xenia Fedorova (@xfedorova). She’s best known for running Russia’s state propaganda media in France, and then writing a whole book to whine about how it got shut down by the EU after Russia invaded Europe.

This is just sick. This is just russia. Vile. Sick. Inhumane. Terrorists. Pure evil. Hunting children playing outside. This is the highest level of fucked up. You don’t negotiate with this. You wipe it off the map. Full stop. There’s a place in the deepest pits of hell for them. Make them pay.

That was an amazing weekend.

EVIL

When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

Russia’s leaders have said nothing about peace. They have made a list of demands on the US, the fulfillment of which allows them to broaden the war against Ukraine. And the US simply fulfills all of these Russian demands without question. That is only a peace process in the Orwellian sense.

Ukraine Is Not Losing the War At the current rate, Russia will control all of Ukraine in about 118 years.

Five Failures in the Oval Office (video) America hurt itself badly today.

Here I react to the shameful encounter between American leaders and media and the Ukrainian president. No doubt there were more, but I saw five failures on our side: of hospitality, decency, democracy, strategy, and independence. Please watch and share.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll take out my crystal ball and predict what the alliance between the US and Russia could mean for Ukraine, Europe and geopolitics in general. These recent changes could be a real risk for the whole of Europe, and need to be addressed quickly.

Shutting down USAID is a huge gift to Russia -- and China

If America stops helping other countries around the world, it opens the door for China and Russia to help them instead

🇺🇦🙏 "Putin is trying to destroy us as a nation. Just like Hitler tried to destroy the Jewish people. Then Hitler wanted to kill me because I am a Jew. Now Putin is trying to kill me because I am Ukrainian", — Ukrainian Holocaust survivor Roman Shvartsman spoke before Bundestag.
