People need to understand that the current “Russia is actually good” campaign is no longer really about Ukraine. It is about post-war business in Russia. Opportunistic grifters like Candace are already looking for new ways to make money. #Russia #Ukraine #Opportunism #RU #UA

Hopefully, Ukraine can keep sending drones to St. Petersburg throughout the five days of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. The guests need to understand two things: Russia is losing, and you don't fuck with Ukraine. https://t.co/rqUCsvHyzE #Ukraine #Russia #EconomicForum #UA #RU

The aftermath of Russia’s attack on Kyiv last night. Terrorizing civilians once again, while American influencers are shamelessly visiting Moscow in an attempt to whitewash its crimes https://t.co/uKky9kRd2w #Kyiv #Russia #WarCrimes #RU #UA #US

While Russia wages war against Ukraine and carries out sabotage operations across Europe, Schengen countries issued over 620,000 visas to Russian citizens in 2025. France, Italy and Spain alone granted 68% of them. Once inside Schengen, movement across much of Europe is #Russia #Ukraine #Schengen #RU #UA #EU #FR #IT #ES

At least 84 bomb threats were sent to schools and kindergartens across Estonia today, probably originating from Russia. In 2023, hundreds of Russian-language bomb threats targeted schools across the Baltic states. Lithuanian security authorities assessed the campaign as a #BombThreats #Estonia #BalticStates #EE #RU #LT

During Russian attack against Ukrainian civilians, a mother was killed in Kyiv while trying to get her two children to safety. The children are now in hospital. Russia is a terrorist state, and @RealCandaceO is a supporter of state terrorism. https://t.co/vyLm3g9HrF #StandWithUkraine #StopRussianAggression #Terrorism #UA #RU

Today, Russia is also using conspiracy theorists like Candace Owens and Andrew Tate to spread their bullshit. #ConspiracyTheories #Disinformation #Russia #RU

While Candace was prancing and taking photos on her propaganda tour in "trad" Moscow, Russia bombed Kyiv and Ukrainian cities, killing at least 10 and injuring over 100 civilians. https://t.co/EWL2vRDhaC #Ukraine #Moscow #Civilians #RU #UA

Here you can see the Kremlin’s interference machine in full force: 153k views, 1k shares, and 9k likes in just one hour. This same machinery was activated when Orbán was campaigning on X in April, and when Tucker Carlson visited Moscow. It inorganically amplifies these accounts https://t.co/lOSq3A8Vq3 #Kremlin #Disinformation #MediaManipulation #RU #HU #US

Russian officials threaten Europe with nukes almost daily. How do we know they’re bluffing? Because Putin’s children - and the children of many other Kremlin figures - are being raised with European tutors, European languages, European schools, European passports, and European https://t.co/8btferyEub #Russia #NuclearThreat #Putin #RU #EU

Finland just won gold at the Ice Hockey World Championship, and bitter vatniks are already generating AI slop to try to steal the spotlight. The last time Russia played on the international stage, they lost to Finland in the Olympic final. https://t.co/NH2aTcu0HT #FinlandHockey #IceHockeyWorldChampionship #OlympicFinal #FI #RU

Ireland’s Aughinish Alumina is owned by sanctioned Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska’s Rusal. In Q1 2026, 83% of Irish-made alumina exports went to Russia. Just 0,6% went to EU states. At the moment, shipping EU-made alumina to Russia is still legal. This needs to change: the EU https://t.co/0gbpfsgVvd #AughinishAlumina #Sanctions #EUMade #IE #RU #EU

For the next week, Russia will be conducting large-scale election interference in Armenia. The Kremlin has already banned many Armenian imports, spread fake news about the current Prime Minister, and threatened Armenia openly with war. If their candidates lose, anything can #Armenia #ElectionInterference #Kremlin #RU #AM

Zelenskyy warns that Russia is preparing a massive attack on Kyiv in the coming days. As is tradition, they will probably target civilians and civilian infrastructure. Russia is struggling on the front lines, so all it has left is terrorism. #Zelenskyy #Kyiv #Russia #UA #RU

Ukraine just destroyed high-value targets in Rostov, including Tu-142 maritime patrol aircraft used to hunt submarines and monitor the seas. These Soviet-era planes are no longer produced, making each loss far harder for Russia to replace. #Ukraine #Rostov #MilitaryStrategy #UA #RU

Russia's former Deputy Energy Minister Vladimir Milov says the country's economic "miracle" is over. According to Milov, wartime growth was fueled by massive state spending, but those reserves are running dry. Investment is falling, inflation remains high, and budget deficits https://t.co/lkBbVI3fdA #Russia #Economy #Inflation #RU

Candace Owens said she was going to Russia on holiday to "see their churches," but in reality, she's going to be a speaker at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. There is also speculation that she will meet with Dugin while she's there. Read this thread: #CandaceOwens #StPetersburgForum #Dugin #RU

The Trump administration is now seeking the names, addresses, and banking information of people who have criticized ICE on X and Reddit. The US has no freedom of speech. #FreeSpeech #ICE #TrumpAdministration #US

Good news, everyone! Andrew Tate has become largely irrelevant and now usually only regains attention when his sex trafficking allegations and other criminal cases make headlines The world is healing. https://t.co/fdx910kICR #AndrewTate #SexTrafficking #CriminalJustice #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Russia attacks a civilian target in a NATO country with a drone armed with explosives, and NATO responds with... drumroll... a condemnation of Russia's "recklessness." #NATO #Russia #DroneStrike #RU #NATO

Russia deliberately struck a Turkish vessel heading from a port in the Odesa region, there are injured, – Ukrainian Navy https://t.co/MU0V8CefPx #Russia #Turkey #UkrainianNavy #RU #TR #UA

Someone from the Russian Ministry of Defense leaked their battle maps. Then someone compared those maps with the ones from @Deepstate_UA. The difference is staggering. The Russian leadership is being fed lies and is completely out of touch with the situation on the front. #Russia #WarMaps #MilitaryIntel #RU #UA

MAGA has split into two camps: one pro-Russia, the other pro-Ukraine. You’ll see this materialize in a massive PR push within the next week or so. Make a wild guess who will appear in each camp 👇 #MAGA #ProUkraine #ProRussia #RU #UA

Whenever @MarioNawfal's posts get backlash, he blames his "writers." The account is running under YOUR name, take some responsibility. Recently, your channel, operating under YOUR name, has been spreading false information about the Starobilsk drone strike in Eastern Ukraine. https://t.co/c5fVxfLKIG #FalseInformation #Accountability #UkraineConflict #UA

And it’s not only about China expanding its territory and oppressing 23 million more people, terrible as that would be. The whole world would be destabilized by a PRC empowered by control of key chip factories, making threats of further Chinese aggression ever more likely. 12/20 https://t.co/AGdL2sD8GW #China #Taiwan #Geopolitics #CN

In today’s Wumao Soup, we’ll talk about Taiwan, the sovereign country the Chinese Communist Party insists is not a country, but constantly threatens to invade just like a country, while the “antiwar” crowd is eagerly encouraging them to start that war, endangering millions. 1/20 https://t.co/4cuob49GSE #Taiwan #China #Wumao #TW #CN

The McDonald’s in Kyiv, damaged by a Russian attack over the weekend, has already resumed operations. This is the 7th time it has been hit. Incredible people https://t.co/tBVZzoxRHn #Kyiv #McDonalds #RussiaAttack #UA #RU

The drunken dwarf is now openly threatening EU diplomats, too. Desperate to stay relevant. https://t.co/75Ay9ObeC5 #EU #diplomacy #threats #EU

Russian state-funded outlets and war correspondents are now openly calling for bombing of EU diplomats in Kyiv. And at the same time, some Europeans are calling for negotiations with Russia. There's no negotiating with terrorists. https://t.co/LzEp9liA91 #Russia #Terrorism #EU #RU #EU #UA

After Finnish-Russian influencer Kristina Kulagina shared a video from a Russian ghetto, the pro-Kremlin crowd quickly claimed it was actually filmed in Finland. Well, “Krisu” has now posted another English-language video that confirms the earlier ghetto sightseeing tour was https://t.co/vtIrzPlA1P #KristinaKulagina #RussianGhetto #FakeNews #FI #RU

The Kremlin is trying to make this video, in which the goblin dictator fails to yell “hooray,” disappear. Let’s make sure it gets the online amplification it deserves. https://t.co/GPmKWyoHy0 #Kremlin #GoblinDictator #MediaAmplification #RU

EU Ambassador to Ukraine: ‘diplomats will not leave Kyiv’ in response to Russia’s threats of striking the capital again https://t.co/j8bCJbi6FN #Ukraine #EUDiplomacy #Kyiv #EU #UA #RU

Translation: Russia is using a Ukrainian strike on a military target as a pretext to bomb civilian targets in Kyiv, in an attempt to coerce the Ukrainian leadership into capitulation. They are doing this because they cannot win on the battlefield without mobilization, which https://t.co/Ylu1TUu6tC #Kyiv #Ukraine #Russia #UA #RU

Russia spends $5 billion a year on propaganda to manufacture support for its invasions through false narratives such as this one, amplified by bot and troll farms. Fact-based research to counter it takes time and effort — please support our work: https://t.co/vJ2V1XDXF6 #Russia #Propaganda #Disinformation #RU

In today’s Vatnik Soup, we’ll introduce Russian propaganda operations around military targets like Starobilsk. For over a decade, the Kremlin has used similar strategies, combining crisis actors, “independent journalists” and fabricated evidence. 1/13 https://t.co/J0NaPgefbX #RussianPropaganda #MilitaryOperations #Starobilsk #RU

Federal investigators have served subpoenas to Hasan Piker and Medea Benjamin due to their trips to Cuba https://t.co/5NglSA3qV7 #Cuba #Subpoenas #HasanPiker #CU

Pictures of “students” from the bombed Starobilsk college. The Kremlin forcefully recruits these youths and later sends them to die on the front lines. As we speak, Russia is using all of its propaganda resources to portray these soldiers as innocent victims. https://t.co/qOtcEXHwbR #StopTheWar #RussiaUkraineWar #PropagandaExposed #RU

Kyiv tonight, after Russia's massive missile and drone strike. Incredible resilience. https://t.co/nUMi1MGhAZ #Kyiv #RussiaUkraineWar #Resilience #UA #RU

People really need to pay attention to this story. It describes how the Kremlin's disinformation machine communicates directly with Putin's office, and how some of these fake stories garner up to 80M views. It's time to shut it down for good. #Disinformation #Kremlin #StopTheSpread #RU

The Kremlin has brought in busloads of “independent journalists” (read: Kremlin-paid propagandists) to report on the military strike in Starobilsk. Expect some next-level fake stories over the next few days. https://t.co/Lp7tan6X5h #Kremlin #Propaganda #FakeNews #RU

This is what “trad” and “conservative” Russia deliberately did to a Ukrainian church. Any real Christian can clearly see that Russia has nothing to do with Christian values. https://t.co/R4bYJM6NZU #Ukraine #Christianity #Russia #RU #UA

Pravda Network, Doppelgänger, Storm-1516… the state-funded ecosystem of pro-Kremlin propaganda is well known and well mapped. We need to sanction all of it and shut it down at the infrastructure level. These are not news networks. They are propaganda and bullshit outlets.

Ukraine’s air defense shot down 549 of 600 drones and 55 of 90 missiles overnight, most of them in or around Kyiv. Any other European capital would've been completely obliterated. Ukraine is Europe's shield against Russian terrorism. https://t.co/t7OD8u0Fym #Ukraine #AirDefense #EuropeanSecurity #UA #RU

Italian vatniks are spreading false flag claims that the Baltic states are planning to invade Russia. The media channel La7 is helping spread these lies, which Russia can use to justify aggression against EU countries. La7 is owned by Urbano Cairo, a former ally of Silvio #FakeNews #Russia #BalticStates #IT #RU #EE #LV #LT #EU

Since Russia is failing on the front lines, it is escalating its terror against Ukrainian civilians. Swarms of ballistic, cruise, and hypersonic missiles, along with drones, were launched at Kyiv. The explosions are so loud that the ground is shaking. Russia is a terrorist https://t.co/XaX2OHOvKB #Ukraine #Russia #Terrorism #RU #UA

On the attack on the dormitory in Starobilsk: Ukraine says it was one of the headquarters of Russia’s Rubikon drone unit. Russia says it was an attack on civilians. In this specific case, it is hard to say for sure what happened because of the fog of war and constant Russian https://t.co/IryaD3NU5f #Starobilsk #Rubikon #UkraineRussiaWar #UA #RU

According to Estonia’s foreign intelligence chief, Russia’s position could weaken significantly within the next 4-5 months. Russia’s advances have practically stopped, losses are massive, sanctions are biting, and Ukrainian drone strikes are hitting high-value targets deep https://t.co/vk0JCkzD28 #Russia #Ukraine #Intelligence #EE #RU #UA

Republican politician John McCain was one of the few people who understood from the beginning what Putin was all about. This interview is from 2014. It’s a shame most US politicians still lack this kind of clarity. https://t.co/EhnM82qHKh #JohnMcCain #Putin #USPolitics #US #RU

In the middle of Europe, a nation is fighting to protect its electricity from Russian terror bombings. While US representatives schedule another friendly visit to Moscow. #Ukraine #Electricity #Russia #EU #RU #US
