Time Text
Welcome, folks!
Three, two, one, and welcome, folks!
And this is Truth vs. the News, and this is Monday, August the 26th.
No, by golly, we got about eight months of the year is already gone, two-thirds is shot, and it looks like we're having a lot of shooting going on, all kinds of things going on in this world.
I bet a lot of shooting is being done by the media that doesn't like truth.
And I will say that we're here to straighten that out, and I think this is probably the only show that does that to the best of anywhere in the world.
And we have the great people that do it.
I will say that I'm so proud to have these people here.
Jim Pescer is the number one man whose book is number one on the hot list.
Nobody died at Sandy Hook.
That one is great.
And of course, nobody died at Boston either.
And how about, and I suppose Nobody went to the moon, and how about the JFK?
You know, who, how, and why?
And of course, this little one about America being, come on, America being nuked on 9-11.
These are books that you've got to have in your library.
I think they're the best things I've ever gotten.
Most informed, wonderful.
And then we have another gentleman who's an author, too.
His name is Scott Bennett, and he wrote Shibble Game.
And he wrote this under duress as he was in prison.
But this is a good book.
I've read it.
It's pretty quite awesome.
It's explaining what happened with all the different agencies and the corruption.
Then we have Brian Danielson.
and I can't get that straight.
Davidson, Davidson, Davidson.
Brian Davidson and was an investigator, a private investigator out of Houston
who has got the answers to a lot of questions A great investigator by any name!
That's right.
He's wonderful.
Well, you got it, Don.
You got it.
Ukraine has made an effort to invade Russia.
Ukraine has made an effort to invade Russia.
It was well, ill-fated.
It was conceived by U.S.
intel.
I suspect they used AI to find what they thought was a weakness in the Russian lines.
Under NATO attack, even American forces have been detected there.
A U.S.
diplomat is being asked for an explanation.
U.S.
charge d'affaires in Russia.
Stephanie Holmes has been summoned by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs to explain the participation of American forces in the invasion of Russia in the Kursk region.
Moscow reported execs of an American private war company are fighting in Kursk.
Actually, it's not the execs, it's the people they hired.
It's the implementation of a Biden order lifting the de facto ban on American private military deployed in Ukraine.
Holmes received a strong protest in connection with the provocative actions of American reporters who will legally enter the Kursk region for propaganda coverage Of the crimes of the Kiev regime.
Moscow, they stress what was happening, was contrary to White House claims.
Washington was not involved in the Ukrainian army's attack on Russia.
State has warned Russia will investigate Americans involved.
All foreign specialists and mercenaries who illegally cross the Russian border automatically become legal military targets.
Meanwhile, unexpected drone strikes intensify tensions.
Ukraine launched, in addition, an extensive drone attack on Moscow.
At least 10 drones have been destroyed by Russian air defense units.
As part of the broader strategy to target Russian military assets, marking an intensification of the conflict, there's questions about the limits of U.S.-supported potential escalation.
Here's a commentary about it.
Today is August 25th, 2024.
The conflict in Ukraine continues to unfold.
The Ukrainian incursion into Kursk has predictably left Ukrainian forces severely overextended, admittedly accelerating the advance of Russian forces along the actual line of contact, along which the war is actually unfolding.
Let's start by taking a look at the map and then let's get into Western media admissions.
All of this that was very predictable from the very beginning, from the moment Ukraine committed to its Kursk incursion, this is now all being admitted by the Western media, citing U.S.
officials.
So let's look at the map.
This is LiveUAMap.com.
This is a pro-Ukrainian live map.
Keep that in mind as we take a look.
We can see the Kursk incursion up here in the north, the northeast.
The actual line of contact goes from Kherson across Saporozhye, the Donbas region, and of course Kharkov region near Kupyansk.
There's also this additional front Russia had opened up relatively recently north of Kharkov city.
If we look along the actual line of contact, especially west of Donetsk and Edirsk, we can see that Russian forces have been advancing, even in just the one week since my last update.
Now, this map has a timeline feature right here.
You can see it provides information as of August 24th.
If we go back about a week, let's say 17th of August, You can see that this area was yet to be under Russian control.
This pro-Ukrainian map admits that, yes, Russian forces have continued to advance.
They have now reached this area.
They continue moving to Pokrovsk.
Now, the Western media is talking more and more about Pokrovsk because it is inevitably going to be taken by Russian forces.
It's another one of these important logistical hubs that is being used to help support
the rest of Ukrainian defenses along the line of contact.
Russia taking this is going to further grind down Ukrainian military capabilities,
including military logistics.
This is a really important development.
Meanwhile, bad news for Ukraine.
Russia drops a FAB 3000 beast bomb for the first time.
Kiev casualties in 24 hours, 2,165.
Unbelievable.
The Russian Ministry of Defense announced the start of mass production of the FAB 3000.
They've not been used until now.
In the village of Lipsi, Kharkov, the Russian Air Force has fired a FAB 3000.
A four-story building used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces as temporary deployment was chosen as a target.
According to Russian analysts, this is the first combat use of a bomb of this caliber in the history of mankind.
The bomb deflected for 10 meters.
I think that means it had an accuracy within 10 meters.
This is an excellent result for guided munitions.
The reference radius for the FAB 3000 is 230 meters.
Fragments retain their destructive power at a range of 1240 meters.
Russia says talks with Ukraine are impossible after the Kursk offensive.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Monday Vladimir Putin had made clear talks with Russia are now impossible following the Ukrainian assault on the Kursk Oblast.
The President very clearly said that following attacks or even incursions on the Kursk region, any talks are impossible, according to TASS.
Ukrainian officials have suggested the purpose was to gain leverage for future negotiations with Russia, but Moscow's reaction to the incursion indicates it would only delay peace talks.
The Washington Post reported Russia and Ukraine were due to hold indirect negotiations in Qatar on a potential agreement to stop targeting each other's energy infrastructure but was derailed by the Kursk incursion.
Maria Zakharova appeared to deny the Post report, saying Russia was not involved in any direct or indirect talks with Ukraine that could have been derailed by the offensive.
Lavrov mentioned the report, but only denied rumors Russia and Ukraine had any clandestine contacts.
Ahead of Ukraine's invasion, Zelensky signaled he was open to holding peace talks, which was a significant shift in his position.
He previously rejected the idea of diplomacy unless Russia withdrew from all the territory it had captured in Ukraine as well as from Crimea.
Russia expressed openness to its new willingness to talk, but now the comments are viewed as a ploy, since they were made even as Ukraine was preparing for the Kursk offensive.
Russia and Ukraine have not engaged in any talks on a potential ceasefire since the early days of the invasion.
A peace deal was on the table back in March and April of 2022, but diplomacy was discouraged by U.S.
and its allies, which thought they could do better.
Meanwhile, and this is very disturbing, Joseph Borrell, the EU's top diplomat, called for Western countries providing weapons to lift restrictions to allow long-range strikes inside Russia with NATO weapons.
This is the equivalent of a declaration of war by NATO on Russia.
The U.S.
is allowing Ukraine to use U.S.-provided weapons in Kursk, not permitted in long-range strikes.
Lifting restrictions on U.S.
capability versus the Russian military involved in aggression against Ukraine in accordance with international law would have several important effects, he claimed.
Allowing long-range strikes would help peace talks, but Russia is ruling out any negotiation in the wake of the offensive.
Zelensky is pushing hard for U.S.
and NATO to lift restrictions, calling his Western bankers concerned about escalation naïve, meaning he doesn't believe Russia will do anything about it.
Meanwhile, Ukraine has been stepping up long-range attacks with drones.
Our Ukrainian drones work exactly as they should, Zelensky said.
There are things, however, that cannot be done with drones alone.
We need other weapons, missile weapons.
Why is downplaying the risk of a major Russian response very unwisely?
The U.S.-backed invasion of Russian territory and the use of NATO weapons inside the Russian mainland marks a huge escalation.
Here's Larry Johnson saying something about it.
Let's get started with what's going on right now in Syria.
We've learned that Israel is attacking Syria.
On the other hand, we have a joint military exercise between Russia and Turkey.
What's going on in Syria right now?
Well, I don't know specifically today.
I haven't seen the news on that.
But, you know, the United States started off 12 years ago now, 13 years ago, with an effort to overthrow Bashar al-Assad, working in tandem with the British, arming Islamic jihadists.
You know, I thought we were fighting Islamic jihadists and the war on terror, but turns out that we decided to recruit some.
And work closely with Turkey on providing weapons to these fighters.
Because the Turks were particularly upset and obsessed with the Kurds and the threat that they posed.
So, you know, the United States basically launched a civil war.
We've got U.S.
troops based there.
We've got the United States conducting predator drone strikes on targets inside Syria.
But what's happened over the course of the last year, year and a half, is Turkey's now starting to sing a different tune.
They're seeking to re-establish relations with Bashar al-Assad.
Assad has been welcomed back into the League of Arab Nations before he had been banned.
Larry, can you do something with your mic?
I think it's hitting somewhere.
Is that okay?
Yeah.
Okay, sorry.
So, you know, the situation of the United States position there is, let's say, it's more precarious.
It's not stable.
And, you know, the Israelis have been bombing inside Syria for a long, long time anyway.
But, you know, I think this is, it's got to be viewed in the context that Syria is now out of the doghouse.
And because of its strong military relationship with Russia, easing of tensions with Turkey, that it's going to leave Israel in a more isolated position than before.
Which is a very good thing.
Why Syria was ever in the doghouse in the first place is a good question.
Scott, you're an expert.
Well, first of all, these second stringers who are up there doing videos really don't know what they're talking about.
They get a little bit of the story, but let me explain it from an advanced studies course point of view.
Let's go to the smart people lecture for a change.
The fact is, Uh, the Syrian invasion, uh, this Syrian fight, Turkey was on the wrong side, Turkey's buying oil from ISIS, Turkey's working with Israel, Turkey's providing fuel to Israel, so Erdogan's a blowhard that does nothing but talk, talk, talk.
And he's done nothing but talk, talk, talk since the Israelis have done this genocide and slaughtered 40,000 women and children and civilians and blown the faces and arms off little girls.
And if you want to see something that'll make your blood run cold and you won't be able to sleep, which maybe needs to happen to Americans, watch some of the videos and the photographs of these little three-year-old Palestinian girls and boys who don't have legs and don't have arms.
And see how you feel about the President of the United States, whether it's Trump or Biden or some other asshole, because they're all part of this clique that is backing these Zionist monsters.
The only countries that are decent in this area are Syria and Iran.
No one else.
Jordan's a cowardly nation.
Turkey's a backstabber.
And Russia is the only decent one, of course, too.
So that's for Syria.
The next chapter is Ukraine.
This was an invasion by Ukraine and the United States of America and NATO going to Russian territory.
And they ought to thank their stars that Russia didn't respond with an overwhelming response which could have included nuclear weapons and decimated everything in Ukraine and every building turned to rubble and buildings and weapons depots in Romania and Poland.
And Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany, and Britain, and France.
And that's where we're going.
And this is, you know, you want to play someone on and do a video with someone who's smart, knows what they're talking about, put on Doug McGregor.
He's the only one that I listen to and respect.
All the rest of them are beta males in a second string operation.
But McGregor knows, he's a scholar, he's been a tank commander, and he knows the vicinity.
But Russia is very close, and this is the straw that breaks the camel's back.
You invade Russia.
You're not invading Donbass.
You're not invading Donetsk or Lugansk or Crimea.
And I've been to these places.
These are foreign soils.
You're going into Russia.
You're going into Belgorod and Sherebenka.
Now you're going into Kursk, where this is Russian territory.
And it is remarkable that Russia has shown such patience.
But again, it's about winning the public relations war in Europe and the United States and the Five Eyes, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, all these other castrated eunuch nations.
They're about the public relations win, and that means you don't overthrow the money-changers' table.
You calm and hypnotize and soothe the savage beasts, or in this case, the retard populations, and don't give them a reason to be mobilized by their fanatical political globalist rulers like Macron or Biden or Schultz or Starmer, or before that, Reese Schoenack, and before that, Boris Johnson.
They're all cut from the same cloth.
So, Russia is keeping that side calm on a public relations level, so it wins the diplomatic war, it wins the communications war, and it is.
The current attack on Telegram is an indication of NATO's hemorrhaging of public support.
But it is going to amplify the kinetic war, and it is going to destroy every Ukrainian, and every American, and every Briton, and every other mercenary that gets caught coming across into Russia.
And this is extraordinarily serious.
The one thing Larry Johnson said that was pretty smart was imagine if Mexico had been given weapons and tanks
from Russia and invaded Texas and New Mexico and Arizona and taken hostages and killed Americans.
What would America do?
They'd wage bloody war.
Well, that's exactly what America has done to Russia, but Russia hasn't responded with waging bloody war, because it's smarter than that, and it is into the long game, which is winning the hearts and minds of the world by showing the hearts and minds of the West are beyond repair, decadent, leprous, satanic, Just for the record, Scott, I regard McGregor, Ritter, and Bennett as the best commentators on Ukraine, not necessarily in that order.
vaccinations, homosexualization of culture, breakup of the family, and every other form
of perverted idolatry. Jim?
Just for the record, Scott, I regard McGregor, Ritter, and Bennett as the best commentators
on Ukraine, not necessarily in that order. Brian, your thoughts?
Let me just frame this out and think through this out loud, okay?
Okay.
Brits, Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, and now includes new additions are Egypt, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, UAE.
That represents approximately 40% of the global economy.
Now, BRICS is supposed to be sort of a voluntary type organization where each country gets to lead a committee every year and it changes and the power structure can't really be centralized.
But I imagine that due to Russia's great power, they do have a considerable amount of influence over how or they're sort of the core center.
I mean, this is 40% of the global economy.
Now, the warmongers are obviously concerned.
They're concerned that if this next election doesn't go the way That they've been told it's going to go, that they may lose power for this war machine.
A perfect example here is Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr.' 's speaking piece related to this entire situation.
So they have a short period of time.
With which to start a war.
So they're going to run a propaganda campaign that says Russia is the new aggressor.
And it seems to me that the articles also indicated that United States military contractors are sending in United States citizens to continue to fight this war.
But these organizations want the rest of the world to believe that it's Russia that's continuing to start the war so they can get it going.
So, I think it was just like eight days ago that there was supposed to be peace talks in Qatar, according to the Washington Post, and those aren't happening now, and now you've got an expansion of this.
Russia has basically devastated Ukraine's power supply and absolutely gutted their ability to continue to wage war, yet they make it look like they're winning.
Now, why could this be?
Obviously, they're staging it up for some sort of major event that's going to escalate the war while they can still control it so that Donald Trump doesn't have the control to stop it, the military-industrial complex, and all of And if they win, then they can dismantle BRICS, which represents up to 40% of the global economy.
Just thinking through the big picture, I'm not sure if I've got the puzzle pieces right, but that's kind of the way I see it.
Scott, am I even close?
You're close.
I would just add one of the saddest and sickest observations I've had are they've had some interviews with these dumb as a bag of rocks or as filthy treasonous as the Satan himself.
You know, former American soldiers who are in Ukraine fighting for all of this, you know, fighting for the innocent, fighting, you know, Ukraine was invaded, and I'm just shaking my head because they're either liars or fools, but either of which, each person that we have in country Each bullet that an American fires, every single American soldier and, you know, I would say soldiers, diplomats are prostitute whores, you know, with androgyny in their being, but every American soldier that we have in Ukraine fighting against Russia
Is another crucifixion nail into our reputation, another ignition of flame that is burning our reputation and our entire character down and destroying us and destroying Any chance of reconciliation and trust with Russia in the next, you know, five years.
This is going to take a generation to heal.
And Trump, for all of his bloviations, when he says things like peace through strength, it causes me great alarm.
Because that's easy to hijack into these, you know, 2.0, you know, growing and selling weapons again all over to Ukraine.
It's just an absolute tar pit that we will never have any victory in, because Russia will never abandon the field, because that field is their backyard.
It's nothing to do with us, Jim.
God, I have a report of a National Guardsman in Idaho who has already received orders to report for duty in Ukraine in mid-September.
Your thoughts?
Well, honestly, Jim, He would be obeying unconstitutional order and an act of treason.
He would be invading Russia.
He would be aiding and abetting terrorist activities against Russia.
And if he was caught, he could be charged and executed.
There is no declaration for war.
If you're a private citizen and you want to be a mercenary, that's one thing.
But if you're an American soldier using American taxpayer dollars to pay that son of a bitch's meals and his airfare to wear the uniform and represent the United States in Ukraine, if you are an actual military member wearing the uniform in Ukraine fighting Russia, not only, I think, are you a traitor and an abomination, but you are a war criminal that should be caught and charged and prosecuted and executed for war crimes.
Because what the Ukrainians are doing is killing women and children and civilians.
They're not fighting soldiers.
They're sending drones and missiles into areas of civilian populations in Kursk and Belgorod.
And that's a crime against humanity, and any American soldier that's participating in that is guilty of crimes against humanity, Jim.
But mind you, Scott, he doesn't want to go.
I mean, you know.
Then he should be a conscientious objector and say, these orders are unlawful, unconstitutional, and I cannot obey them.
And he should file an action through his commander, through his JAG.
up to his brigade commander and he if he's got the guts he should stand firm and say this is unconstitutional and and also file a complaint to the inspector general of you know of the pen of the military of the pentagon hold on just one more thing okay is ukraine a sovereign nation Well, they've tried to reinvent it as one.
They've tried to draw the geographic boundaries and call it an independent nation, but legitimately you could say it's never been a real nation.
It was a portion of Russia and it deals with Khrushchev and Lenin and it basically came into formation From the last hundred years.
And before that, it was sort of like a no-man's land that ebbed and flowed between Romania and Poland and Austria and all of those old, you know, empire fights.
But it's never been an independent nation that's had its own name and boundaries, say, for the last 300 years.
Like the United States, if you will.
For this purpose, they're already acting as a proxy for Western interests, correct?
That's correct.
That's correct.
Why has anything changed if there's U.S.
soldiers now that are fighting as part of their army?
How has that changed?
The whole thing still remains exactly the same since they've been fighting this thing as a proxy of the West from the beginning.
Yep, they're fighting as a proxy of the West.
You might as well, if you called Ukraine what we called Afghanistan, which was a terrorist nation, Any mercenary going to Afghanistan to fight America, you know, bomb the New York Towers, which we know didn't happen, but I'm just using that as a facetious argument, anyone going to Afghanistan to participate in the fight against the United States, we would brand as a terrorist.
So anyone that goes to Ukraine to fight against Russia, They have the grounds to brand them as a terrorist because they're not engaged in fights against military, they're engaged in operations against Kursk and civilian targets.
There are military actions going on, but the particular American and French troops that have been caught or recorded in the Kursk area, let's separate these battle zones.
Kursk is different than Donbass.
Kursk is Russia.
Donbass is not.
You go into fucking Kursk, you're going into Russia.
You're going into Russia as an American soldier.
You are representing the American military.
And if you're going into Russia killing women and children and civilians by bombing apartment complexes, now you're engaging in war crimes, which the United Nations recognized is not tolerated.
So, these are different battle zones.
The fight in Donbass, you could say, is a military operation, but the fight in Kursk is an invasion of civilian territory, civilian operations.
Very nice.
Excellent addendum.
Meanwhile, Israel claims to have launched a preemptive strike on Hezbollah to prevent a major attack.
Well, it didn't work.
Israeli forces in Hezbollah exchanged some of the heaviest fighting among Sunday.
Fierce mounted a direct Iranian retaliatory strike to embark an all-out regional war.
Israel's military launched preemptive strikes in southern Lebanon against high-value targets after allegedly detecting movement on the ground that militia forces were preparing to launch a barrage of missiles, rockets, and kamikaze zones into Israel.
Hezbollah announced Israel's claim it launched a preemptive strike was baseless, further saying, these are empty claims.
The militia said approximately 320 rockets and drone waves were launched by them into Israel.
The IDF said they launched about 200 rockets.
Hezbollah called it a complete success.
Here's a report.
Iron Dome intersections underway in Western Galilee.
Numerous Iron Dome interceptions.
Footage shows Iron Dome engaging rockets.
The claims for the Iron Dome are grossly exaggerated.
According to this report, the idea about Thomas Hezbollah by a significant margin, I find this highly dubious.
Remember, Hezbollah has defeated Israel before.
Prior to Sunday, regional conflicts have been elevated the risk following Israel's assassination of senior leaders of Hamas and of Hezbollah.
Meanwhile, how the Israel-Lebanon conflict could redefine modern warfare.
If full-scale war breaks out, Hezbollah's new precision targeting capabilities could be a game-changer.
With the recent spate of confirmed and alleged assassinations and decapitation strikes in Beirut, Tehran, and Khan Yanis, the likelihood of a third war between Israel and Hezbollah has markedly increased.
Both adversaries are expected to deploy unmanned aerial vehicles at various times.
At the time in April, I wrote an article harboring hopes for a peace-by-terror scenario when conventional deterrence would prevail and prevent or postpone the outbreak of a full-scale war.
Then, Israel's posture along the Lebanese border was primarily defensive.
However, as forecast, it has swiftly transformed into an offensive one.
Reinforced by the redeployment of units from Gaza, Including brigades from the 36th Regular Division of the Northern Command.
This is the same that previously bisected Gaza in the northern and southern parts.
Additionally, brigades from the Elite 98 Paratrooper Division and the 146th Reserve have been redeployed or newly positioned.
The current combat grouping of 3 Division 12 Brigades is roughly twice the size of Israel's invading force back in July of 2006.
At the time, only some of the assault brigades were reported to be in position, nevertheless.
To avoid the debacles of the 2006 war, to successfully push Hezbollah's tenacious units over the Tani River toward the north, The Israeli army will require substantial additional manpower.
To effectively undermine the Israeli military objectives, Hezbollah is likely to intensify drone warfare and employ multiple types of UAVs—fixed-wing, multi-rotor, loitering munition, first-person view as a force multiplier.
How may Hezbollah deploy Bones during a potential third war?
Here's a review.
In July 2006, Hezbollah manned, intercepted, and decrypted video feeds and communication of Israeli drones by employing a combination of electronic warfare techniques, signalless intel, and ground-based interceptions.
His infiltration allowed them to gain real-time intel on the Israeli army's operational plans and unit movement in southern Lebanon.
Hezbollah did not disrupt the feeds.
Instead, they spied on the flying sprays, spies, the Israeli army surveillance drones.
Identifying the targeted location as well as combat ambushes for the Israeli Army's assault units.
Their fighters mined and booby-trapped some of the targeted locations.
The organization tanked killing teams were ready with both anti-tank guided missiles and unguided rockets.
All these preparations were based on real-time movements seen in the drone feeds.
Hezbollah, moreover, repositioned its forces to better withstand Israeli attacks and pre-registered and rearranged their indirect fire, such as rocket artillery and mortar, for greater precision by knowing the location and movements of the Israeli units.
In an ironic way, Hezbollah Might be following a known Anglo-American adage.
If it can be seen, it can be hit.
If it can be hit, it can be killed.
Hezbollah's problem of blind artillery rocket and inaccurate drag fire is fading away, partly due to UAVs.
The remote capabilities are not limited to ISR, however.
The organization conducted a remote strike deep into Israel, most recently in August 2024.
Multiple drones were able to penetrate northern Israel, resulting in the wounding of Israeli soldiers and civilians.
The attacks undermine the dual-use nature of Hezbollah's drone fleet for both surveillance and strike operation generally.
The impact of UAVs on warfare are still being debated among military and security experts, but for Hezbollah and the Israeli army alike, drones will exert significant tactical and operational impact in the anticipated conflict.
Meanwhile, Israel's strikes in Lebanon were not the final word in the campaign against Hezbollah.
Israeli PM Netanyahu said Sunday's strikes in Lebanon were not the final word.
The IDF carried out a wave of strikes in southern Lebanon to thwart a large-scale attack, including a plan to hit Mossad headquarters.
We're striking Hezbollah with surprising, crushing blows.
This is another step toward changing the situation in the North and returning our residents to their home.
And I repeat, this is not the final word.
Hezbollah returned fire with more than 300 rockets and drones reaching Israeli territory.
A Hezbollah official said the group worked to ensure its response to the Israeli killing of one of its top commanders would not trigger a full-scale war.
Israel does not seek an all-out war but will exact a heavy price for aggression, its spokesperson said, describing Iran and Hezbollah as a nexus of evil that despises democracy and is attacking Israel on its way to attacking other Western countries.
Meanwhile, French prosecutors revealed potential charges against Durov.
Telegram allowed cybercriminals and drug traffickers they allege to operate with impunity.
The Paris Public Prosecutor's Office has released a list of a dozen charges that could be brought against Telegram founder and CEO Pavel Durov, ranging from commercial drug dealing and money laundering To facilitate the distribution of child pornography?
All of this sounds to me to be totally fabricated.
The 39-year-old Russian, who also had citizenship in France, the UAE, and St.
Kitts and Nevis, was detained by French authorities on Saturday.
In a press release Monday, Prosecutor Laurie Bacow said Durov was arrested, part of a broad criminal inquiry against a person unnamed.
That would be he.
As part of the inquired, 12 charges being considered against Durhoff, including facilitating narcotics distribution, money laundering, and organized crime, and aiding in the distribution of child pornography, almost always a sign of planted evidence.
The interpreter is also being investigated for refusing to cooperate with cyber crimes and financial crime investigations, which might be true because it was a violation of privacy rights.
Criminal investigations in France are run by special magistrates.
Charges like those leveled against him are typically announced before investigators have finished gathering evidence.
Which can't take years.
Charges can be dropped at any point, if insufficient evidence is found.
The investigation, which began last month, being conducted by Francis Zander's cybercrime and anti-fraud offices, Telegram called it absurd to claim that a platform or its owner are responsible for abuse of the platform.
Telegram complies with local laws, including the EU Digital Rights Act and anti-Russian sanctions.
Telegram.
Which has almost a billion monthly users, generally refuses to hand over data or chat records to law enforcement.
Thereof have said this focus on user privacy has made him a target for intel agencies around the world.
Claiming in an interview in April, the FBI attempted to recruit one of his employees to install a backdoor in the app that would allow them to spy on Telegram users.
No doubt that's getting to the heart of the matter, Scott.
Your thoughts?
Well, let's start out with a telegram situation.
First of all, Pavel Davos, and I've done a few interviews on this.
This is poetic justice, and this 39-year-old billionaire, you know, in a sense, he created the Russian equivalent of Facebook, VK.
And he's done this telegram and apparently the Russians had approached him in 2013 or something and had some kind of a conversation about limiting or editing or controlling the telegram platform.
He gave the Russians the middle finger and went to the United Arab Emirates where he has citizenship.
His mother's probably an Arab or something like that by bloodline.
I don't know, maybe he got it for free, given him a billion dollars, but he left Russia very critical.
And very starry-eyed about the West and the promises of the West and, you know, all of the glitter and glamour of the West.
So it's poetic justice that this dumbass 39-year-old billionaire is stupid enough to fly into France despite all of this The FBI raids on Dmitry Semy, the Russian Channel One host, who's a political scientist with a home in Virginia.
The FBI raided his home without showing the warrant.
Their raid on Scott Ritter, the confiscation of Ritter's passport.
Uh, uh, and now they arrest, uh, this Pavel Durov on the tarmac in France.
The guy was stupid.
He was stupid.
If he's a billionaire, for Christ's sake, you, you have a decoy.
You hire a decoy to get off the plane first with a cell phone by your, by his ear.
And when he gets through, uh, and there's no arrest or anything like that, he radios, oh, the coast is clear.
Uh, but no, uh, it doesn't seem they're as smart as that.
And he gets off the plane, they grab him.
And they've had him in jail since, what, Saturday or Sunday.
And they're going to keep him in jail, Jim, probably for a year or two or longer.
They're not going to let him go.
They're not going to give him bail.
They're going to give him welcome to the Julian Assange Fantasy Island, which you're going to get a cold cement cell, moldy bread, mildewed water, a thin blanket, and you're not going to get any visitors.
You know, all suckaboo.
We don't know how to speak your language.
He's not going to get lawyers.
He's going to get nothing.
They're gonna torment and break that flimsy little billionaire spoiled kid, and he's gonna fold like a styrofoam cup.
And the FBI and the CIA and the Mossad and the French intelligence and the British intelligence, this is all part of a cyber operation to shut down Telegram, because Telegram, despite the personality quirks of this kid, Pavel Durov, Who now, no doubt, is crying out for Russia to rescue him, like he's praying to Saint Joan of Arc or something.
But Telegram represents a platform that allows a lot of videos of the bad stuff that's happening in Israel, in Ukraine, and the West is trying to shut that down.
So yes, they have no doubt had agents, FBI agents, CIA agents, British agents, secretly inserting themselves into the Telegram platform and engaging in nefarious activity so they could create the example, the citation for their masters in Langley.
Or London to then say, aha, we've got a couple guys who are doing child porn on your telegram service.
We're going to blame you, Pavel, for doing that because you didn't regulate it.
And don't ask whether those guys are agents of ours or not, because we're not going to answer the question under the Home Secrets Act.
That's what they do.
That's what these intelligence agencies do.
They have their own guys, hire their own mercs, and they go into these platforms, and they pretend to sell little children, or they approach people like Ritter, and they invent cases around them.
So, this kid is going to be in jail until he turns or buckles to the intel agencies.
Russia's not going to, you know, they've been inquired, but they're not going to get him.
Uh, but, but he, you know, he's done.
And they're also probably going to do this to Elon Musk.
Remember the EU told Elon Musk, you have to control Twitter.
We don't like the offensive tweets.
They're going to do probably the same thing to him because Macron is out of office soon.
And I think all of these other European, uh, oligarchs like Macron or Schultz or, or, you know, uh, the Italian or, or like we've seen Boris Johnson, they all get golden parachutes.
So they can do whatever draconian thing they want because they're getting a billion dollars in cash and getting a free island down in Abu Dhabi.
So they're going to serve their masters, whoever they are, the Rothschilds, the globalists, the Soros, all of the above.
And it's an information war against Telegram, against Twitter.
Why?
Because there are a lot of things that if the public got wind of, might heal their retardation and lack of connection, such as the Ukrainian religious civil war that's just about to start with this fake Jew, Zelensky, signing a law, which he has no authority to sign because he's not the president of Ukraine anymore, signing a law outlawing the Russian Orthodox or the Ukrainian Orthodox Church.
So you, a little Jew, are signing a law outlawing the Ukrainian Orthodox Christian Church, and this has caused an uproar, and it's going to continue to cause an uproar, and MPs in the Ukrainian parliament have stood up against it, and now Zelensky's going after them!
This one guy with a beard, you know, left, he's went to Europe, So they're pursuing him.
They're pursuing all sorts of people.
They're in absolute meltdown.
They're coming apart.
They're being very dangerous now because they're coming apart.
And you're seeing this reflected and having the gall to go after, you know, tech idiots like this guy Pavel Durov.
And throwing him in jail.
The irony of the comedy is he's been thrown in jail by the very Medusa that he thought was Glinda, the beautiful pink bubble wit, you know, floating witch in the Wizard of Oz.
No, it's actually Medusa that's bit his ass and turned him into a statue of stone.
And finally, on the Israeli situation, Yeah, they picked a fight with Hezbollah.
Hezbollah flew drones all over Israel and they fired all sorts of missiles.
It's going to have a backlash, of course.
Hezbollah, the Yemenis, the Iranians, they're strangling and tightening the noose around Israel.
I did interviews on this too.
If Hezbollah and the Iranians, everybody was smart, they would drop leaflets all over the country in Israel and say, if you want to live, leave.
If you want to live and have a family, leave Israel.
If you want to live and see tomorrow, leave Hebron.
Leave the gay capital, Tel Aviv.
Because every building and every insurance policy of every building and every business is going to have shattered glass, broken parking lots, and burned out, you know, shops with damaged products.
And you're not going to get new products because they're getting all sunk by the Yemenis.
And guess what?
If you think the United States is going to come in with aircraft carriers and planes Every one of those vessels and every one of those planes is going to be shot out of the sky by the S-400 or S-500 Russian counter missiles, and every boat sunk to the bottom of the sea.
And I think that's just the tactics of advantage that they have over the United States, which no one wants to have anything to do with now because of all this aggression that we have unleashed since 9-11, Jim.
My inference has been the guy who was a sponsor of Telegram was a good guy, but you're certainly elaborating on that.
Well, you know, you know me.
I can get a little bit critical in an attitude, but I, you know, I just don't like dumb shits.
And this kid was a dumb shit.
And all these techies are dumb shits and they're arrogant, but to fly into France and land and have his ball snapped onto a mousetrap, you know, you deserve to squeak a little bit, boy, because you were stupid.
And now he's going to pay the price.
The sad thing is, we're not going to see him.
He's not going to be free unless they do a secret deal.
Unless Macron's got a gay lover that's been grabbed by Putin and thrown in jail and they're going to trade him.
You're not going to see that kid, I'd say, for five years, Jim.
Well, Telegram has been a good source of information because there's lots of guys that collaborate and it's a little bit tighter than any open forum like Reddit or 4chan that are obviously controlled by CIA, artificial intelligence, bots, and other infiltrators of all different types.
I even think there's some here on our BitChute channel and some of the other channels that watch us.
Matter of fact, I know there are.
Um, lots of trolls out there, but Telegram was a little bit different.
That's where they get their best education, Brian!
These dumbasses don't get smart people to listen to except us!
Well, Telegram was...
Is a good channel.
Now let me tell you something that happened recently in Russia.
This was October of 2023, I believe.
There was a bunch of riots that broke out near an airport in Dagestan, Russia, because through telegram in Russia, A bunch of citizens got wind that there was a bunch of Jewish refugees coming in on an airplane, and so they basically said, hey, we're going to get out there and not let the airplane.
I think over 1,400 people were arrested, and that was all because of a telegram post in Russia.
Now, Russia has finally handed out those prison sentences, and the prison sentences were Not tied to disrupting the airport traffic.
They were tied on charges of anti-semitism in Russia.
So apparently the law is stronger for anti-semitism even in Russia than it was for disrupting the airplane traffic.
So it kind of tells you, it gives you some insight.
Yes, yes.
All good points.
of the Israeli Zionist movement to shut down anybody who takes actions that they consider
to be anti-Semite. Now, Telegram, this guy just built a piece of tech. It just so happens
that anti-Semitism is on the rise. I wonder why.
Yes, yes. All good points.
Oh, by the way, the other article in there was the Zero Hedge article with the title
that Israel was making a preemptive strike on Lebanon.
Yeah.
Let me make sure I understand this.
You can't see October 7th coming, but you can see an attack coming from Lebanon.
So you're going to institute the cheating doctrine, which is, oh, if there's a 1% chance that we're going to get attacked, we might as well do it.
Was 9-11 a preemptive strike as well?
What, are they all preemptive strikes?
A bunch of warmongers in the military-industrial complex just trying to get the media and a bunch of dumb sheep Americans to follow along so they can get their funding bills passed.
It's ridiculous.
Very nice.
Very nice.
I like that.
Meanwhile, Bynes speaks the first night of the DNC, except of course, it's this new fake Bynes.
The guy is four inches taller than the old.
Honest, he looks like a basketball player.
Powers over Jill.
Meanwhile, she seems to adapt no matter who it is that's supposed to be her husband.
She's just all in for the power.
Here you can see the difference in their height.
Why is nobody calling it out?
Not even the Republicans.
Meanwhile, David Erb back.
My quick take on the first night?
Poor production, even worse execution.
Nothing for swing voters in swing states.
Fact-check statements regarding Program Link, Project 2025, abortion, and good people.
Lot of bull.
Meanwhile, House drops its Biden impeachment report and its damning.
This, of course, is for the real Joe who died in 2017.
We've had, of course, the last three years of his fake Biden.
The report describes in detail his abuse of power for an entanglement, corruption, and obstruction of investigation.
House Oversight, Ways and Means, and Judiciary brought their nearly year-long impeachment probe of Biden to an end Monday, concluding the Democrat who unwittingly made Kamala's second presidential bid possible for dying has engaged in egregious impeachable offenses.
According to the nearly 300-page report, Overwhelming evidence demonstrates Biden participated in a conspiracy to monetize his Office of Public Trust to enrich his family.
Among other aspects of the conspiracy, the Biden family and their business associate received tens of millions from foreign interests by leading those interests to believe such payments would provide them access to and influence with President Biden.
Bank records show up when accounting also for the Biden family business associates and their companies.
The international influence meddling scheme totaled over $27 million from foreign sources just between 2014 and 2023.
Contrary to repeated suggestions by Biden and Boosters that he'd have no hand in his son's shady dealings with foreign nationals from Ukraine, China, Russia, Kazakhstan, and elsewhere, the report maintained Biden knowingly participated in this conspiracy.
That it is inconceivable that President Biden did not understand that he was taking part in an effort to enrich his family by abusing his office of public trust.
In August 2019, he said, I've never discussed with my son, my brother, or anyone else anything having to do with our businesses.
The following month, I've never spoken to my son about his overseas business dealings days after he stood by a previous protestation on October 15th.
I never discussed a single thing with my son about anything having to do with Ukraine.
No one has indicated I have.
We've always kept everything separate.
He made similar denials at least a dozen more occasions into his presidency.
Despite his protests, the report indicates no such distance existed.
Some of the proceeding from the influent peddling scheme went to Joe Biden.
Among the funds that ended up in his bank account, hundreds of thousands were allegedly directly traceable to China.
Joe Biden has exhibited conduct and taken action the founders sought to guard against in drafting the impeachment provisions of the Constitution.
The report indicated Biden's acting participation was sometimes expressed in policy changes evinced by the leveraging of a billion U.S.
loan guarantee to Ukraine to secure a favorable result for a company affiliated with his son, convicted felon Hunter Biden.
Not only does the report accuse Biden and his ilk of engaging in this conspiracy, it claims they did their best to cover it up.
Foreign money was transmitted to the Biden family through complicated financial transactions.
The family laundered funds through intermediate entities, broke up large transactions into numerous smaller.
Substantial efforts were made to hide Biden's involvement in his family business activities.
House Democrats may be prickled to learn the press since they said in 2019 and their impeachment of President Trump have been turned on by Don.
Meanwhile, Time Magazine.
Time to arrest this fraud.
No doubt.
Don, if the time is right, we can take our break.
Oh, the time is right, all right.
This is the time of the year here in the And things are really hotter than the summer heat, even.
And it's time to take some action.
And we are bringing the information you need to take action here on Truth vs. News here on August the 26th, 2024.
This is just the first hour.
I'm just getting going.
Come on back for more and share this widely.
We appreciate your participation and comments and And everything that you're doing, and we are growing exponentially, and people are getting woke up.
And so, wake up, Pierce August, and let's get going.
See you in a little bit.
