Six days hanging naked from rebar. Four months standing in human waste until his feet rotted and his heels separated from the bone. Two healthy teeth ripped out without anesthesia. His tendons severed with a knife.
This is what Ukrainian soldier Oleksii Anulia endured during 10 months of russian captivity.
He was beaten unconscious and nearly raped. He watched two fellow prisoners being murdered. Another man was raped for nine days because he had a beard. A female teacher was raped after declaring a hunger strike.
“I asked why. They told me: ‘Because you were born a khokhol.’”
His father went looking for him and helped 46 people escape captivity. The russians captured him in Lukashivka and burned him alive alongside six others inside an Orthodox church.
Oleksii survived. Doctors wanted to amputate his legs. He refused. He wanted to walk again and return to his children.
He wrote Jingle bellZ to document these atrocities for a future tribunal.
“They broke everything that could be broken. They couldn’t break my desire to return to my children.”
This is the reality of russian captivity. The world must know the truth. Every perpetrator must face justice.

Much punchier accusations from Sir Malcolm Rifkind - a former defence and foreign secretary:
"I choose my words very carefully. I think this week Donald Trump has shown himself as a person to be repulsive; as a President of the United States to be a disgrace to his own people as well as to his international responsibilities.
"We all know his actual reasons for this are a grubby attempt to win a few more votes in the midterms by trying to get oil prices down.
"In order to achieve that, he has not only betrayed Ukraine in the middle of a war, fighting for its very existence, but he is also directly - not indirectly - directly responsible for the deaths of many Ukrainians who will not now be protected by the attempts that have been successfully made using intelligence provided indirectly by the United States."

russia cannot sustain the mess it created. Refineries on fire & soldiers surrendering in Donbas. That’s why it’s doing everything it can to persuade Trump to get Ukraine to capitulate. That’s why now is the most vital time for Ukraine to keep going and not listen. It’s working

I'm testing the Russian bots, because traffic from Yandex bots is currently close to zero (check Cloudflare Radar). That's because Ukraine has imposed a ban on them — by firepower.
So I'm going to say the following things, which will most likely generate organic, authentic, human traffic, but without the bot traffic. Let's see:
* russia is a criminal state;
* russia is a terrorist state;
* russia is ruled by a criminal regime;
* Putin and the entire russian leadership, from 2014 and 2022 onwards, should find themselves inside the courtroom of The Hague Tribunal;
* Ukraine is defending itself against all of russia's attacks, pressure from the Trump Administration, and shipments of sophisticated components from around the world, including Europe;
* The Ukrainian people are, first and foremost, the ones whom we in Romania — and the Republic of Moldova as well (or especially) — should thank for keeping the russian Army at bay;
* The European Union is the best thing that has happened to Romania since the Great Union of 1918;
* The United States of America under Donald Trump has become nothing more than an empty shell of the values and principles it championed for decades;
* Donald Trump is a convicted common criminal, now also suspected of pedophilia and other forms of sexual abuse against girls and women in connection with the Epstein files;
* Elon Musk is an individual who has absolutely nothing to do with ethics or morality, not even remotely.
Feel free to add other things that might attract the bots' attention, and let's see whether they're still operating or not.

In 2022, 447 bodies were found in Izium. Among them was the body of Serhii Sova, a 36-year-old fighter from the 93rd Brigade “Kholodnyi Yar.” He was identified by his hand - on his wrist were two bracelets, blue and yellow.
He had been executed with his hands tied behind his back, Ukrainska Pravda reported.
One of the medics photographed that hand - with the children’s bracelets. Ukrainians began posting photos of their own wrists in the same colors. It was a day of silent pain.
Serhii was born in Nikopol - a Ukrainian junior boxing champion, dog-training instructor, and father of two. His children - Lina and Marat - gave him those bracelets in 2014, when their father first went to war. He never took them off again.
In April 2022, Serhii made his last call. “The situation is very difficult - nine are dead, we’re holding on till the end,” he said. Then he disappeared. The russians captured him, stripped him, tied his hands behind his head, and executed him in a forest belt.
He was identified by his tattoos: “Lina,” “Marat,” “Oksana,” an owl, and a samurai with a sakura. His wife Oksana says, “When I fall in my dreams, he catches me with his hands. He still holds me.”

Well, it’s a quick take, and no doubt data will come in, but it sure looks like based on today’s evidence that a lot of pro-Trump and pro-AfD bot work depends directly on Russian data centers.

Dear Americans,
I am a soldier of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and I want to tell you something.
Freedom is not measured in dollars. Freedom is not measured by the price of diesel in your car’s tank.
Freedom is measured by a nation’s willingness to fight for its country, its people, and its right to exist.
We Ukrainians know the price of freedom. We pay it in blood. Every single day.
We will continue striking Russian military targets. We will continue fighting Russian invaders on land, at sea, and in the sky. In Ukraine and wherever Russia wages its war against us.
Because we are not fighting for money, oil, or comfort.
We are fighting for our homeland. For our future. For our FREEDOM.
And we will never surrender it.

According to NYT, Trump's Ukraine talks now include a multibillion-dollar deal for Lukoil's foreign assets. Putin pitched it to Witkoff and Kushner, whose business contacts could benefit.
It's just corruption through and through, with zero regard for civilian casualties.

People keep saying Trump term II is the most corrupt administration ever, so I built a model to find out if it was true.
I took the UN's definition of corruption, turned it into eight criteria and 100 points, and scored the leaders history remembers for looting their countries: Marcos, Suharto, Mobutu, Abacha, Obiang, Putin.
Then I put every president since Eisenhower on the same scale, both parties, with every exoneration counted right alongside the convictions.
Nixon scored 41 and no other American President scored over a 25.
Trump's second term scored a 91, which ties him with Suharto and Mobutu and puts him above Marcos and Abacha.
So he is not only the most corrupt president in American history. At this pace he finishes his term level with the most corrupt rulers of the last hundred years.
PSA: don't come in my comments arguing about the results if you haven't read the full article, because ignorance is a choice.
Full article is up now on my Substack (link in bio) and it's free.

Look at Zelensky. Look at his reaction to what Kushner is saying. Utter disgust. He’s doing his best not to show it, but @ZelenskyyUa is rightly and utterly disgusted with the Americans talking about Putin’s “aspirations.” Fuck Putin and his aspirations. He invaded a sovereign nation. He needs to get the fuck out of that sovereign nation. All of it. But alas, America has a president who’s on Putin’s side.
