@YouTubeInsider@Max_Fisher Really bad take Youtube.

@BrianB5000@peterbakernyt@scoopercooper@peterfrankopan 7/ The Ukraine govt also severely undercounts their deaths with published reports (and Zelensky) saying about 60,000 to 100,000. That’s not correct either. As a former soldier, I can tell you that war is hell. 😞
@BrianB5000@peterbakernyt@scoopercooper@peterfrankopan 6/ I can’t tolerate misinformation Briweezy! Can’t have more Putin regime-capping in 2026. He is sending young Russian men into a live grinder act to die (particularly in the winter months), where they expire like flies. The war has been horrific on both sides.
🚨Iran national team captain Mehdi Taremi on FIFA:
• "It's a disaster World Cup, a disaster."
• "FIFA, they have to solve every problem here, but unfortunately, they couldn't solve since the beginning."
• ً"We don't have our logistic people here, they don't have a visa."
• "We love people of Mexico, we love Tijuana... but as a professional players, professional competition, it's not right."
• "Now we have traveled again to Tijuana, so without recovery, without nothing, it's not fair."
Lumumba Vea, DR Congo's most iconic supporter, will miss the Leopards' decisive World Cup match against Uzbekistan after failing to obtain a U.S. visa. Stranded in Mexico, he was forced to return home to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, meaning he'll also miss any remaining matches if DR Congo advances. I've seen enough. This is the worst-organized World Cup I've ever witnessed.
@BrianB5000@peterbakernyt@scoopercooper@peterfrankopan 5/ Ukrainian soldier deaths estimates are 103,418 to 203,748. Estimates are on the basis of public reports of deaths. These include announcements by local authorities, Ukrainian media, posts by relatives on social media, monuments to the dead. Source https://t.co/X7E6Q8VtD5
@BrianB5000@peterbakernyt@scoopercooper@peterfrankopan 3/ The “public registry” estimate is “based on excess male mortality, using data from the Russian national Probate Registry. This statistical method, created in collaboration with Meduza, helps to account for the limitations of relying solely on publicly reported deaths.”
@BrianB5000@peterbakernyt@scoopercooper@peterfrankopan 2/ The recorded name count figure comes from “publicly available, verifiable sources, such as social media posts by relatives, reports in local media, and statements from regional authorities.”
Michel Nkuka Mboladinga, known as Lumumba Vea, gained fame during the Africa Cup of Nations for posing as a statue of Congo’s assassinated independence leader Patrice Lumumba for the entirety of games
Lumumba was an activist who helped to end Belgium’s colonial rule over Congo in 1960. He became the newly independent country’s first prime minister and was seen as one of Africa’s most promising leaders, but he was assassinated within a year during a struggle against a Belgian-backed secessionist movement in the mineral-rich Katanga region.
A Belgian court in March ordered a 93-year-old former diplomat to stand trial for the slaying. Etienne Davignon, who previously denied wrongdoing, is the last living among 10 Belgians suspected of involvement in the killing and has been charged with “participation in war crimes” for his role in the “unlawful detention and transfer” of Lumumba.
