What Z-team doing?

Russland 🇷🇺 griff soeben das Höhlenkloster (ukrainisch: Kyjiwo-Petscherska Lawra) in Kyiv 🇺🇦 mit Raketen an. Es brennt lichterloh. Das UNESCO Weltkulturerbe Gebäude ist eines der ältesten und bedeutendsten orthodoxen Heiligtümer Osteuropas. Es wurde im 11. Jahrhundert gegründet.

Russians have struck the Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra and are burning down one of Ukraine's oldest Orthodox churches‼️ The roof of the Dormition Cathedral is ablaze. The cathedral itself is a significant part of our history, it is older than Moscow. It was already there when russian neanderthals were building shacks made of sticks and shit. Fucking barbarians!

BREAKING: A Russian drone has struck the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra. Built in 1051, the monastery is the most important site of Orthodox Christianity in Ukraine.

The Kharkiv Art Museum after today's Russian attack. Destroying Ukrainian history, art, language, and cultural identity is a page from an old Russian playbook. Cultural genocide is what they do.

This morning, UK forces boarded a Russian tanker in the English Channel that was secretly helping to bankroll Putin's war in Ukraine. The first operation of its kind led by British forces, and a clear message: there is nowhere to hide.

HODGES: It will become very difficult for Russia to sustain the war, and even to protect Crimea or retain control of Crimea. Russians will eventually say, “We can’t stay in Crimea anymore. We’re getting hammered every night. There’s nowhere to hide.” You can’t fly out of there. You can’t resupply out of there. Certainly, no ships can operate from there. This will be the cumulative effect of the destruction of Russia’s ability to export oil and gas, combined with continued increase in Ukraine’s ability to destroy Russian logistics with its mid-range strikes. So, I think Crimea will not fall as a result of a D-Day-type invasion, but as a result of the integration of all types of manned and unmanned systems, special operations, long-range precision strikes, and so on.

🤡 Kremlin: Putin and Trump held a phone conversation today. Putin congratulated Trump on his 80th birthday during the phone call. Trump was touched by Putin’s congratulations, thanked him, and noted that the Russian president was the first foreign leader to call him today.

Slide 4: Data compiled from open source information that was corroborated with U.S. government information including U.S. Embassy in Ukraine data, showing connections to the defense industry and research project data on U.S. funded highly pathogenic avian flu and other highly infectious viruses in biocontainment labs in Ukraine.

Lately, Russian propagandists started openly mocking President Trump. The shift has been rather abrupt, as Russian television had not allowed itself such rhetoric before. Clearly, the Kremlin gave the order to start criticizing Trump. At first, Russian propagandists referred to him as "our guy." Now they describe him as a "Bidenized loser," a destroyer of the American empire, and a helpless manager. It is not Trump who has changed, but the tasks of the Russian propaganda machine. So, by taking his figure as a case study, we can see how propaganda works. ▪️ The first law: the object is not evaluated - it is used. On Russian television, Trump can be both a hero and a fool, a genius and a weakling on the very same day. One day, Solovyev praises the man who "destroyed the world order," and the next day he mocks his inability to reach a deal on Iran. Not because propagandists are confused, but because propaganda and lies do not require consistency. The more confusing and absurd, the better. ▪️ The second law: Russian television says only what the Kremlin allows it to say, and only when it allows it. Once the command was given, the hosts immediately began tearing Trump apart. ▪️ The third law: every audience gets its own dish. The domestic audience hears contempt. Foreign audiences hear doubt. Russian-language broadcasts feed viewers mockery, while RT in English carefully cultivates skepticism and asks questions. ▪️ The fourth law: ridicule is a political weapon. In reality, propaganda attacks not the individual but the institution through the individual. Trump is merely a convenient conduit. If he appears weak, manipulable, or incompetent, then American leadership itself begins to look the same. ▪️ The fifth law: propaganda hates inventing anything new. It prefers clichés. Need to explain Trump? Bring out "Biden." Need to explain Ukraine? Bring out "Afghanistan." Need to discredit future evidence? Bring out "Powell's vial." New events are simply stretched over old templates. ▪️ The sixth law is one of the most sophisticated. The most effective Russian propaganda does not sound Russian. It speaks with an American voice. If the desired message can be put into the mouth of an American journalist, blogger, or politician, its impact multiplies. People are more willing to trust their own. And finally, the most important thing. The ultimate goal of the machine is not to convince you that it is right. That is too difficult. It is much easier to convince you that truth itself does not exist. That everyone lies. That everyone manipulates. That everyone is equally ridiculous and equally absurd. Once people stop searching for the truth, they become much easier to control. The key question is why Russian propaganda has changed its rhetoric toward Trump precisely now.
