🇺🇦 Seymour Hersh drops new intel on war in Ukraine

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh shared new intel on the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Main ideas from his new Substack release:

▪️Zelensky and his entourage illegally embezzled at least $400 million from funds transferred to Ukraine for the purchase of diesel. The diesel that ended up being purchased was most likely supplied from Russia at a discounted price.

▪️multiple Ukrainian government ministries are “competing,” to set up front companies for export contracts for weapons and ammunition with private arms dealers around the world.

▪️U.S. curators are frustrated with the corruption in Ukraine. CIA Director William Burns presented Zelensky with a list of 35 generals and senior officials who, according to the CIA, were involved in corruption schemes.

▪️U.S. military is preparing a draft agreement to end the conflict in Ukraine, which will be offered to Russia "in case of defeat."

Major media prefer not to cover Seymour Hersh's investigations, despite his expertise, reputation and wide network of sources in government and business.

💥Trump hints at who might be behind the Nord Stream explosion

In a recent interview, Tucker Carlson asked former President Donald Trump who he thought blew up the Nord Stream pipeline.

"I don't wanna get our country in trouble, so I won't answer it, but I can tell you who it wasn't: Russia." Trump responded.

It's been some time since classified U.S. intelligence documents were leaked. Now, some sources are questioning their authenticity.

Indeed, it is suspicious that such important classified documents could circulate on the Internet so easily after being leaked.

Now it seems that every media outlet has an opinion on what these documents could mean for the ongoing war in Ukraine, for U.S. relations with China. No one is trying to hush it up.

I don't have the expertise to determine whether the numbers add up. But I realize that if the U.S. government encourages discussion, there must be some benefit to it.

💰Trump sues his former fixer Michael Cohen for over $500 million

Donald Trump is suing his former lawyer and fixer Michael Cohen just over a week after the former president was arraigned on 34 felony charges related to payments Cohen made to porn star Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.

Trump is suing Cohen for more than $500 million in damages. In the lawsuit, Trump’s lawyers claim Michael Cohen breached the terms of a confidentiality agreement he agreed to while working for Trump, saying he did so “with malicious intent and to wholly self-serving ends.”

🍿PR campaign slowly turning into drama.

🚫🇺🇸Montana moves to fully ban TikTok over national security concerns

Lawmakers in Montana have moved to completely ban TikTok from the state. The bill passed the Republican-controlled state House on Friday.

It now needs to be signed by Republican Gov. Greg Gianforte, who has not indicated yet whether he intends to do so. If signed, starting January 1, 2024, Montana users will no longer be able to download the app.

The reason for the ban is because TikTok “gathers significant information from its users, accessing data against their will to share with the People’s Republic of China” and “fails to remove, and may even promote, dangerous content that directs minors to engage in dangerous activities,” the bill states.

Elon Musk had some fun trolling Canadian media

Canadian media outlet CBC recently announced it will temporarily stop posting on the platform, after Twitter assigned a "government-funded media" label to the CBC profile.

This move by Twitter has sparked discontent, voiced by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, among others. He said the label was not fair, as only about 70% of it was funded by the government.

Musk then tweeted: "Just trying to be accurate. Would they be ok if we said 70% govt funded?" and updated the label to "70% government-funded media."

A Twitter account then suggested that perhaps the label should be 69 percent to "give them the benefit of the doubt," and Musk wasted no time. "Good point, generosity is always the right move. 69% it is!" he responded and proceeded to correct the label.

Well, who could have known Musk was the biggest troll ever 😅

🇺🇸Zero democrats vote for House bill to protect women’s sports

The House of Representatives passed legislation on Thursday to protect women’s sports leagues by banning male athletes who identify as females from competing.

All affirmative 219 votes came from Republicans, while all 203 Democrats votes against the legislation.

The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2023 would amend Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 to prevent a "person whose sex is male to participate in an athletic program or activity that is designated for women or girls."

Society is becoming more polarized than ever. Somehow not a single Democrat supports what should be common sense.

🇩🇰Denmark presents a statue of a nursing man

The Women's Museum in the Danish town of Aarhus was recenly renamed to be the Gender Museum.

A statue of a nursing man was created to honor this event. The man breastfeeding his child symbolizes "the hybrid of masculine and feminine in today's society," the author claims.

This is the erasure of women every conservative is talking about. I’d pass on such art.

Interesting day.

First, Fox News announced they and Tucker Carlson decided to part ways. Now we learn that Don Lemon got fired from CNN. One day, two hosts.

I doubt Don Lemon has anything interesting ahead of him career-wise. But Tucker, for sure, will find a new platform for his voice.

Bud Light suffers 17% sales plunge amid Dylan Mulvaney controversy

Bud Light has suffered a sales hit following the beer brand’s controversial marketing tie-up with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney — with the latest data showing an alarming 17% drop. The volume dropped 21% in the week ended April 15.

That’s ahead of the 6% drop in sales dollars and 11% drop in volume that Bud Light had suffered the week before. That's quite a significant decline since April 1, when the controversial Mulvaney campaign was lauched on social media.

The marketing executives responsible for tapping Mulvaney are reportedly taking leaves of absence.

Haven't they learned the lesson yet? Go woke, go broke.

Trans teen died from vaginoplasty complications during landmark Dutch study used to justify child sex changes

A 2016 medical article documenting the tragic death of one of the participants in the linchpin Dutch study upon which the entire child sex change experiment is based indicates that puberty suppression was to blame for the young person’s death.

The case is that of an 18-year-old trans-identified male whose puberty was blocked by the Dutch researchers at a very early stage, meaning there wasn’t enough penile tissue for surgeons to use to create a “neo-vagina.” So the doctors decided to go for a higher-risk procedure.

Major complications followed 24 hours after surgery, and necrotizing fasciitis began to develop. Large doses of antibiotics did not help, the previously healthy patient went into multiple organ failure and died.

The whole child sex-change industry is a scam. Doctors should not mutilate absolutely healthy and functioning organs, especially those of children.
