SirWinston, you can come back and repost this video "proof" that Olga Zelenska just bought a new Bugatti for 4.5 million Euros. It doesn't even matter that it's an obvious deepfake, and the French voice has a Russian accent, because it says what you want to be true, and that's what counts.

By the way, this fake tweet now has 2.2 million views and almost 9000 retweets, because there are a lot of other people for whom nothing is too stupid to believe if it fits with their priors.


EDIT: I apparently owe SirWinston an apology. He's not quite that dumb.

Of course not. I'm currently planning to vote for the candidates of the American Solidarity Party.

Anyone that swallowed the hook on that one clearly doesn't know a damn thing about the hypercar market. Even if she had the desire and the money Bugatti would not have sold her a Tourbillon on the primary market. Just like she couldn't have ordered anything from Ferrari though some dealers might sell her a Roma or maybe a Portofino out of dealer inventory. It is like the average man on the street walking into a Rolex dealer and saying they want to buy a Daytona.

Oh no, Russia bros! Our Generation's Chief Minion is switching sides all of a sudden and dumping his loverboy Putin in favor of Cargo Pants! Wonder what's changed to cause this shift???

Orban


If you think his appeal is because he is “pro Russia” you are missing the mark on why people like Orban.

I hope he isn’t “pro-Russia”. I hope world leaders are pro-their own country. Him understanding his country’s position in the world and being willing to hear out both sides is a good thing.

I don’t have super strong feelings on the guy either way personally, but this makes me like him more.

Anyone with half a brain knows that Zero Hedge is Russian disinformation outlet from day one.

Tyler Durden moniker is meant to appeal to incels and young males who feel less than their peers.

Hungary is100% dependent on natural gas via from Russia which comes through pipelines which cross Ukraine. A new pipeline to be able to receive natural gas from Azerbaijan a connection in Croatia, via Georgia, Turkey, Aegean and Greece to Croatia was planned over a decade ago. Orban finally approved cooperating with Croatia since the first of the year. He has willfully made Hungary dependent on Russia, just like Merkel made Germany be.

Russia's contract with Ukraine expires this summer. Ukraine can legally shut it down if no agreement reached. Gazprom has already admitted that it in the financial shitter and this stoppage would kill it and Hungary's economy.

Orban has playing a fine line as Hungary's economy is dependent on subsidies from the EU. The EU and Russia own Hungary more than Hungarians do.

Key Takeaways:

Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) Head Vladimir Kolokoltsev boasted that Russian authorities have increased detentions and prosecutions related to illegal migration into Russia while calling for intensified Russian government crackdowns against illegal migration.

Russia assumed its one-month-long rotating presidency of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) on July 1 for the first time since April 2023 and will likely use this position as a power projection base within the international system as it historically has.

South Korea's Ministry of Unification announced on July 1 that North Korean state TV channel Korean Central TV switched to transmitting broadcasts via Russian satellites instead of Chinese satellites, reportedly affecting South Korea's ability to monitor North Korean state TV.

Hungary assumed the six-month rotating presidency of the European Union (EU) Council on July 1.

Ukrainian forces recently advanced near Kreminna, and Russian forces recently advanced near Avdiivka.

The Russian information space continues to discuss the mistreatment of wounded and disabled Russian servicemembers in Ukraine.

Batko has a sense of humor, he wanted to annoy the Poles, but he also wanted to get back at them for their support of the attempted coup.


But why does Europe have a refugee problem? Because the EU pays NGOs to transport these people to Europe, where they are put on welfare, and given housing. Generally at preference over actual Europeans. The end result is ever increasing crime, including very high rates of rape (the victims are almost exclusively Europeans), as well as poverty, and it threatens to end the existence of these countries through wholesale demographic replacement. By 2048 the majority of children born in Germany will not be German. The UK, while they did manage to escape Brussels, is run by the same evil lot, and so you see the same thing there. Illegal immigration has been bad for sometime, but it's exploded under Sunak. And this is happening despite the fact that's wildly unpopular in the UK, not to mention the rest of Europe.

And there's really no way to argue that any of this improves Europe in any way - it just hurts Europe. For example, average IQs is declining because the immigrants are dragging down the averages. So if it just hurts Europe, and that's transparently obvious, then hurting Europe must be the point of the policies.

INTELLIGENCE UPDATE
UPDATE ON UKRAINE 02 July 2024

While speaking at the St Petersburg International Legal Forum, on 27 June 2024, the head of the Russian Investigative Committee Aleksandr Bastrykin claimed that Russian authorities had identified 30,000 migrants who had recently become Russian citizens who were not registered for military service. Bastrykin further boasted that 10,000 of these had already been sent to the operational zone in Ukraine. Bastrykin claimed these migrants would 'dig trenches' and conduct other duties in
rear areas.

Russian independent media has previously reported that Russian law enforcement have been conducting a campaign of legal harassment against, particularly Central Asian, migrants in an attempt to induce them to enlist in the Russian Armed Forces in return for citizenship or to avoid arrest on invented charges. This is likely yet another inventive means of bolstering military recruitment while attempting to limit the impact on those parts of the Russian population that have greater political agency.

The US government has been doing the same thing. NGO's that transport these illegal aliens to the US are getting government funding in the form of grants. Millions of taxpayer dollars.

Biden's America

Fact.
