Elon Musk was forced to reveal who financed his purchase of Twitter. Amongst owners are two Russian oligarchs close to Putin and sanctioned over the Russian invasion of Ukraine: Petr Aven and Vadim Moshkovich.

Petr Aven is a Russian billionaire, founder of Alfa Group, which is one of the main wallets for Putin. Aven also attended a meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022 to mark the start of the invasion of Ukraine.

Vadim Moshkovich owns Russia's largest agricultural holding Rusagro. Naturally, he also attended the meeting with Putin on February 24, 2022 and, like Aven, did not protest against Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Fascist and pro-Putin propagandists Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk are trying to exploit the fact there're no good English sources on Gonzalo Lira to pass off their narrative that he's some brave dissident persecuted by a cruel tyrannical Zelensky.

Gonzalo Lira isn't a journalist. He's a YouTuber. He wasn't arrested for criticizing the Zelensky government (he's been doing it for years), he was arrested on suspicion of collusion with the Russian government.

The fact he's been spreading pro-Russia propaganda and disinformation since the before the war, appeared on Russian state-owned networks, and has a Russian official pleading on his behalf, makes me suspect the same thing.

As for the torture, that is just a straight up fabrication. No source for it whatsoever.

I know the Ukraine war has been bumped off the radar of a lot of people by newer flashier conflicts, but it's still extremely important to support Ukraine and the Ukrainian people against Putin's invasion and his many cronies like Tucker and Elon.

Elon Musk, Donald Trump's chief pompom boy, has been secretly communicating with Russian dictator Vladimir Putin for the last few years.

A report that Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, has been in regular contact over the past few years with President Vladimir Putin will not come as much of a surprise to officials in Ukraine—or to the frontline troops fighting a brutal war of attrition with Russian forces. In the few months after Putin’s illegal full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, the South African-born billionaire was hailed a hero by the country’s defenders as they used Musk’s Starlink satellite terminals to coordinate their military operations. Freely provided by Musk in a gesture of solidarity, the terminals gave Ukrainians a crucial battleground edge against the numerically superior Russian forces. Since then, however, relations between Musk and Ukrainian leaders have deteriorated significantly. The Wall Street Journal report on the regular contact between Musk and the Kremlin—the newspaper says Putin even asked Musk not to activate Starlink over Taiwan as a favor to China’s Xi Jinping—will only confirm suspicions in Ukraine that, if not yet a full-blown Russian asset, Musk is becoming a Russian ally. And Starlink is the key. The portable satellite terminals, allowing reliable and secure internet access, remain the backbone of Ukraine’s frontline communications—although the bill is now picked up by the Pentagon rather than Starlink, a subsidiary of Musk’s SpaceX. Increasingly, however, the Russians are using them too. Ukrainian officials say Russian forces are deploying thousands of the terminals in captured Ukrainian territory, closing the technology gap and enabling their grindingly slow and brutal offensive in the Donetsk region. Because of international sanctions, Starlink cannot sell its hardware in Russia and its satellite do not cover Russian territory. But the Russians appear to have a reliable supply of smuggled Starlink terminals through a third country, which its forces can then use in Ukraine.

Well, now we know how Putin obtained those Starlink terminals.

While Russia illicitly using Starlink in communications networks and drones is an alarming sign that they can access American technology to make their drones better, they might not become commonplace. Russian forces on the ground are in desperate need of stable communications and the military might prioritize giving them Starlink access over putting the hardware in a drone that will more than likely be shot down after a single use. Even if Starlink is put in some Shahed variants, it’s unlikely that every single one of the dozens of drones launched per month would have it. Even so, Russia’s use of Starlink to coordinate its forces and drones create new worries for Ukraine and SpaceX alike.

It's deeply troubling that somebody with close ties to America's space program should be playing footsie with one of America's enemies.

With Election Day 10 days away, what are YOU doing in real life to defeat the Trump-Musk-Putin Axis? You can inform low information voters, you can help people vote, and you can shoot down bullshit you hear being publicly spewed by MAGA cultists.

If you don't have a bone spur or something, see how you can help in the final stretch of the campaign.

I know this is supposed to be a feh blog but I have to just state this.

I’ll give an update on Hel’s Kitchen after Nov. 5. I do not want to distract from the bigger idea at hand. On November 5, the American people will be faced with the easiest decision in the world! But sadly, our country is overrun by hateful rhetoric disguising itself is practicality.

There is nothing practical about racism.

There is nothing practical about sexism.

There is nothing practical about discriminating against individuals of the lgbtq+ community.

There is nothing practical about devaluing the lives of disabled people.

Our country runs the risk of being led by one of the most evil men in our history. For those of us who recognize the truth, we must hold strong to our ideals and gather the courage and will to advocate for ourselves and others. We must not let Trump enter the White House ever again.

I went 'Oh... Oh no.'

[eugenedebs1920]

Alright MAGA. Enough is enough! Are you Americans or are you Russians? Do you stand with the Constitution and the freedom & liberty granted to you within it, or do you want to hand this nation over to Putin? To many of us it’s been clear since at least 2015 or prior that Trump had ties to Russia, I would recommend glancing at the Muller report. Micheal Flynn went to prison for collusion with Russia. Could have been a coincidence I suppose. The meddling in the 2016 election by Russia, I guess Trump didn’t ask them supposedly (technically he did with the Hillary emails thing, but). Then there was his first meeting with a foreign government official he had at the White House, that happened to be, you guessed it, a Russian official. In that meeting Trump cleared the room, upon its completion, being the dumbass that he is, inadvertently told reporters he gave sensitive information to them. Then there was the Helsinki meeting. You couldn’t tell if Trump was nervous, excited or if he wanted to blow Putin. Then it comes out, that at the hype of the covid pandemic, when the medical testing supplies were in short supply, Americans were unsure, scared, dying by the thousands, and instead of ensuring these supplies went to Americans, he sent large shipments to Putin. Then, after he knew he had lost the election, he took a plethora of classified documents, war plans, state secrets, and tried to hide them at his various residences. Why? I’ll give you 3 guesses. Putin. Russia. Kremlin. A while later Putin’s buddy Orban makes a stop at maralardo, coincidentally directing after meeting up with Putin. A little after that reporting comes out that Trump has had numerous calls with Putin where he had everyone clear the room for him to talk. Recently, All the sudden, out of nowhere, an unlikely oligarch, who Trump has criticized in the past, Trump has nothing but disdain for electric vehicles, or any renewable energy for that matter, a guy who Steve Bannon, trumps lieutenant, despises and ridicules, Elon Musk, becomes homies with Trump. NOW, it turns out Musk and Putin have been in cahoots for years! Let me spell this out for y’all again. TRUMP IS A RUSSIAN ASSET. It’s Plain as day! So stand with your country. Drop the spite for “woke” and the whole “owning the libs” thing. This is your damn country for Christs sake! Show it some appreciation! What more do you need to understand the Russian threat Trump poses! Do you need a picture of him cuppin the bawls before you’ll believe it?! Be an American, use your head and dump Trump! For the love of god man!
