Comrade Assange and the communist bloc:
Lula vs. Bolsonaro: I was held in solitary confinement for 1,901 days for revealing the truth about the U.S. government's killings and espionage, including against Brazil and its industries. Out of power, Lula fought for my freedom. In power, Lula discussed my persecution with Pope Francis, who decided to meet with my family and offer help. After my release, Lula and I met in Rome to mourn the Holy Father's passing. Lula was kind to my children and asked for nothing in return. In contrast, Jair and Flávio Bolsonaro did nothing and said nothing. Yet without the ability to say no to Washington and Tel Aviv, there can be no domestic policy, only foreign instructions. Those orders are always the same: "Expand our theft of resources and wages, and keep your mouths shut about us murdering children." Sellouts will surrender everything in exchange for a cut, even their own tongues.

Pretty sure we understand your standing orders from the CIA: Cast doubt on the sincerity of calls for CIA and IC reform.
I am a decorated, career CIA officer. @joekent16jan19 was a decorated CIA officer and Spec ops operator. @GenFlynn benefitted from a fruitful military-CIA relationship and last I checked he knows a thing or two about DIA.
When men who have objectively been part of the machine call for change … Maybe folks should pay attention instead of trying to divine some political machinations.
The CIA is failing at its primary tasks and the new leadership decided to rely on the old leadership to conduct transformational change. At best, incompetence on parade.
Occam’s razor… Maybe it is time for another Church Committee.

💥WSJ reports that Trump wants Orbán as UN secretary-general, with Russian and Chinese backing. Back in May, I reported that MAGA circles were already eyeing a top UN job for Orbán—then a DSG post to shield him from prosecution. More on @VSquare_Project: vsquare.org/goulash-orbans-u…

If this comes as a surprise to you, I've told you this 20 times.
The rest of Donetsk is NOT the peace deal.
It's the starting point for russian demands. Those demands (accept or we go back to war) will include demands from the EU and NATO.
Plus russian immunity for war crimes.
🚨 Putin plans to use Ukraine peace talks to push NATO back to its 1997 military posture
According to The Telegraph, the Kremlin wants to force NATO to scale back its military presence in Europe to levels seen before Eastern European countries joined the Alliance.
This could mean demanding the withdrawal of NATO forces from Poland, the Baltic states, and Finland.
That is why Moscow is pushing for European countries to participate in negotiations over Ukraine. Diplomatic sources cited by The Telegraph say Putin wants to turn talks about ending the war into negotiations over the entire European security architecture.
The issue may also have been discussed during Putin's three-hour meeting with Trump's special envoy, Steve Witkoff, in St. Petersburg.
However, European countries have previously rejected the Kremlin's demands to reduce NATO's military presence on its eastern flank.

In Serbia, @avucic has conceded defeat. The Students’ List has won an absolute majority in the elections. Celebrations have begun in the streets across Serbia.
Sound familiar?

Joe Kent @joekent16jan19 did you read the information we sent you on the Ron Paul Institute? Also, did you do any research on Lane before appearing with her on camera?

Big turnout in the Serbian elections, which could mean bad news for Vučić.
It looks like he might not take defeat very well, as titushky are already gathering around Belgrade.
Russia doesn't want to lose its last major stronghold in Europe.
Trg Nikole Pasica, Beograd. Sada.
Mahom mladi, sa fantomkama i maskama. U malim grupama pristizu i krecu se izmedju Trga i parka ispred Skupstine.

Nikola Pasic Square, Belgrade. Right now.
Mostly young men, wearing balaclavas and masks. They are arriving in small groups and moving between the square and the park in front of the National Assembly.

In today’s Vatnik Soup, we introduce James “Fergie” Chambers, an American communist, tankie and heir to the Cox fortune. He’s best known for bankrolling revolutionary causes, cheering Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and supporting Hamas.

Mike Flynn joins Putin and Dugin in calling for an end to American hegemony.
“America needs to unwind the empire we’ve built.”
Flynn is no patriot.

In what I'm sure is a total coincidence, The Atlantic's report on the CIA role in Ukraine has prompted Joe Kent and Mike Flynn to begin pushing "IC reform" that would weaken the CIA and give the DNI full visibility into all covert action across every agency. This is necessary, Kent argues, to reduce "Mossad" influence over the government and allow the U.S. intelligence agencies to focus on important stuff, like investigating Charlie Kirk conspiracy theories.
To be clear: this is a Russian information operation targeting CIA, reframed as an effort to counter Israeli influence over the "Deep State"
The “DeepState” clearly defined and broken down into simple language with concrete solutions.
If @realDonaldTrump doesn’t reform this massive bureaucracy of misfits, our nation will fall into further decline.
At some point and very soon, America needs to unwind the empire we’ve built before we collapse under its weight.

Putin gave Vucic a regime preservation package. Russian intelligence is providing the Vucic regime with support today.
Serbian and Russian intelligence reportedly tested sound weapons on dogs!
Also…Pay attention on special forces today ..it will be “plausible deniability”.

How is Donald Trump’s criticism of President Zelensky interpreted in Moscow? “Moscow perceives these words as a mandate to continue military pressure,” writes one Russian paper. I ask Muscovites to name one word that’s important to them, & read what Russian schoolkids are taught about “defence of the Motherland.” #ReadingRussia
