The scam continues

According to information uncovered by an Egyptian investigative journalist, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s family bought a $5 million luxury villa in Egypt, right next to the estate of actress Angelina Jolie.

NY Times Wakes Up to Corruption in Ukraine as Officials Admit Military Contract Money ‘Vanished’

In a potential signal of shifting attitudes on how the war in Ukraine is covered in the legacy media, the New York Times is starting to slowly acknowledge the endemic corruption that has been a defining feature of the former Soviet state as officials have admitted that money for military contracts has “vanished”.

Following the dismissal of Ukrainian Defence Minister Oleksii Reznikov amid a slew of corruption scandals surrounding the war effort against Russia, the New York Times acknowledged that the “enduring challenge of corruption in Ukraine” has “emerged as a rare area of criticism of President Volodymyr Zelensky’s leadership.”

Although Reznikov has yet to be tied with any of the corruption scandals personally, the Times went on to admit that the resignation has “elevated the issue to the highest level of Ukrainian politics”. Unnamed Ukrainian officials even told the paper that some funds intended for military contracts “failed to produce weaponry or ammunition and that some money has vanished,” while claiming that the issue was merely confined to the early days of the war.

.
.
.
The Times went on to claim that there is a shifting mood within Ukraine on the issue, which the paper said was “mostly taboo throughout the first year of the war, as Ukrainians rallied around their government in a fight for national survival.”

The corruption scandals “are nonetheless piercing the sense of unquestioning support for the government that Ukrainians had exhibited throughout the first year of Russia’s full-scale invasion,” the NY Times continued.

The critical reporting of the issues of corruption in Ukraine from the hitherto vociferously supportive paper may signal a shift in attitude overall towards the war and perhaps the Biden administration’s strategy of dumping weapons, hardware, and money into the conflict.

Ukraine facts:

— Regularly ranked one of the most corrupt countries in the world
— Is not a democracy
— Is not fighting for "freedom"
— Has the greatest concentration of Neo-Nazis probably anywhere in the world
— Persecutes Christians
— Current govt owes its existence to a CIA-sponsored coup

Fuck Ukraine

Besides the above facts, there is also this:

US Intel Official: Media Misleading Americans About Ukraine's Battlefield Success

In an interview with renowned reporter Seymour Hersh, a US intelligence official scolded the media for misleading the American public about Ukraine’s battlefield failures during the Spring counteroffensive.
.
.
.
Responding to reports in recent weeks that Ukrainian forces were gaining momentum and recapturing territory, the official remarked, “Where are the reporters getting this stuff?” he asked. “There are stories talking about drunk Russian commanders while the Ukrainians are penetrating the three lines of Russian defense and will be able to work back to Mariupol.”

He continued, “The goal of Russia’s first line of defense was not to stop the Ukrainian offense, but to slow it down so if there was a Ukrainian advance, Russian commanders could bring in reserves to fortify the line.” The official added, “There is no evidence that Ukrainian forces have gotten past the first line. The American press is doing anything but honest reporting on the failure thus far of the offense.”
.
.
.
The official told Hersh no matter how committed Kyiv is to the war effort, President Zelensky’s goals are unattainable. “Zelensky will never get his land back,” he said.

Yeah, and these so called "experts" also said Kyiv would fall in a matter of days, and Ukraine would fall in a matter of weeks. Lest we forget these "expert predictions".

Russia used to have the 2nd strongest military in the world. Now, they have the 2nd strongest military in Ukraine. There's no question Russia is much weaker today than they were in February of '22.

In 2023 78% of Ukrainians directly blame Corrupt Zelensky for Corruption, with up to 1 million dead and injured in War.

He now refuses to hold elections

A deranged leftists tranny former US soldier who goes by Sarah Ashton-Cirillo recently moved to Ukraine to become the English-speaking spokesman for the Ukrainian military.

Ashton-Cirillo is now taking to social media threatening to hunt down and kill those who criticize the country’s government:

"Next week, the teeth of the Russian devils will gnash even harder, and their rabid mouths will foam in uncontrollable frenzy as the world will see a favorite Kremlin propagandist pay for their crimes. This puppet of Putin is only the first. Russia's war criminal propagandists will all be hunted down and justice will be served."

Why are we giving these corrupt, deranged psychos our money?

?

Just because you keep repeating BS as facts dose not make them so.
We are not the 1930s Germans whereas you can keep repeating propaganda and we will blindly follow!
Sieg Heil!
And no country would hold elections in a time of war with the enemy actually on thier soil!
And had you taken the time to actually serve this country instead of lending service to athortrians as you do on here everyday.
You might have been able to make to this connection!
Not a good time to change the leadership especially since Zelinski is holding Putin by the neck while Biden is kicking him in the ass!
And to say that they are not a democracy because of this fact is disingenuous!
