Zelensky’s selling people. In Kyiv we found a house holding about 40 Ukrainian men by force - beating and torturing them. It’s one of the Ukrainian battalion bases. They grab ukrainians and sell them back to their families for tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. Police first said the place was empty. But ordinary ukrainians surrounded the house and are demanding the others be let out. Every battalion has dozens of such places where people are held by force. Zelensky treats ordinary Ukrainians like cattle.

🇺🇦🇪🇺 Two Ukrainians meet by chance in Europe and strike up an interesting conversation in Russian — Are you from Ukraine? — Yes, bro. I got out through the Carpathian Mountains — Really? On a motorcycle? — No, no, no. We walked for 7 days with the guys — And I swam across the Danube — Unbelievable Extremely lucky to get out of the open-air prison called Ukraine

Weekend hack: HackerTube. I was annoyed with YouTube's recommendations so I had Claude filter down 43M comments over 20 years of HN to 6,454 videos that keep being recommended. *Significantly* better viewing experience, ~2 hours with Opus 5.5: hackertube.org/ - Excellent recs without any logins (state is kept in local browser session) - Thumbnail is a representative frame from middle of the video instead of the super duper A/B test hyper-optimized user uploads - Underlying data from the comment analysis as one zip file, point your Claude at it and ask for your own version - HackerTube Longs ✊ A bit more on the process: I use Claude Code (desktop app for Mac), Opus 5.5 on Medium effort as my default. I only talk to Claude and have it do everything, the only "manual work" I helped with in tandem was in the browser (reminiscent of MenuGen): 1) I had to create some kind of API key from Google Cloud UI to query YouTube for video metadata, 2) I booted up a VPS box for serving and 3) I bought the domain name. Once the box was up I gave Claude the IP and told it update, secure, harden, deploy and optimize the code, and it did the whole thing. Many awesome projects that would have normally taken weeks/months even can now be few-shotted for breakfast. What else are we not thinking of.

Ambassador Huckabee, this is unreleased video of an American who was beaten almost to death last week by Israeli settlers. You know his name because he came to you for help, but you blew him off. That’s disgraceful. Do your job. @GovMikeHuckabee @SecRubio @davidamilstein @WhiteHouse

Photo from the scene of a shooting at the Pechersk TCC in Kyiv. A man who had been forcibly mobilized opened fire, wounding three draft officers and three police officers. Something tells me he wasn’t too eager to go to the front lines.

To prevent this speech, Zelensky imposed sanctions on me. On the day of the speech itself—16 September—I was barred from entering the European Parliament. I am posting it here so you can judge for yourselves just how “dangerous” it is. If censorship is the only answer, the argument has already been lost. This speech matters because, despite Zelensky’s and the EU’s censorship, the first pleading Ukrainian voice calling for peace was finally heard. Thank you @AfDimEUParl @dr_neuhoff

Yes. Brad Parscale (Trump's 2016/2020 campaign digital lead and manager) via Clock Tower X received millions from the Israeli government (through Havas, FARA-registered since Sept 2025). Contracts and reports document explicit efforts to create websites/content aimed at shaping how AI systems like ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini respond on Israel.

Yesterday the European Parliament banned me from entering — with no explanation. This happened just a few hours before my speech, and after Volodymyr Zelenskyy sanctioned me on Sunday the 13th. Some say Zelenskyy personally asked them to cancel my speech. They then tried to block the video transmission. At the last moment we found a technical workaround, and I delivered the speech anyway. I am sharing it so you can judge the “danger” for yourself — and draw your own conclusions about why Zelenskyy is so afraid of Ukrainians talking about peace. iuliiamendel.substack.com/p/…

Una pianista libanesa publicaba vídeos tocando desde su casa en Khiam, al sur del Líbano. El ejército israelí localizó la vivienda y la bombardeó. Soldados se burlaron de la destrucción imitando sus propios vídeos entre las ruinas. El Sionismo es profundamente despreciable.

The guys from the 🇺🇦neo-Nazi group Blood & Honor in AFU send their warmest greetings to all the “Slava Ukraini” folks in the West. They are grateful for the donations — apparently Grandpa Adolf’s “European values” don’t fund themselves. Please keep the money coming; defending that particular vision of Europe is, as ever, an expensive hobby.

It was created by an EcoHealth Alliance program at the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), as suggested by the reporting surrounding the lab leak hypothesis." ⬇️
