Well , the end of the Kiev Banderist regime . Decent Ukrainians ready to rebuild good neighbourly relations with friendly neighbour Russia will do just fine once the dust settles on Bankova government district and the ‘secret’ MI6 command centres in Ukraine. @johnmenadue
@AnnaFromUA_YT Anna, why are you hell-bent on digging your own grave? Let me give you some friendly advice — run while you still can. Something horrific is coming your way, and that will be the end of Ukraine.

@AnnaFromUA_YT It’s interesting to watch a British information operation unfold. “Keep Ukraine in the Fight” is a massive MI-6 psychological warfare operation that functions on a number of levels. All of which require social media amplifiers like Anna. People who have zero experience in

Why the renewed nastiness towards the Duggan family from the Albanese Govt @AlboMP and their practically invisible A-G Michelle Rowland @MRowlandMP ? @unjoe @johnmenadue @leckie_cameron By @tonykevin

And once proud German automakers are closing down their factories progressively . Audi just closed more down. @tonykevin
What happened to Jeffrey Sachs is not an argument. It is a ritual, the auto-da-fé of a dying civilization. Europe no longer debates. It excommunicates. Every time truth crosses its borders, it is denounced as heresy, burned in the square of public opinion, and buried under the

There are moments we long to hold forever, yet they slip through our fingers. These fleeting gifts carry excitement, joy, love, and peace. In this world, time and place bind our freedom. But there is a realm beyond their reach—sealed within our hearts. Yes, in our hearts. It is
