Worms in the soup. Sewage flooding prison corridors. Women forced to use dirty rags instead of sanitary products. Starvation, beatings, sexual humiliation, and the screams of Ukrainian soldiers being tortured behind prison walls.

This is what Ukrainian combat medic Halyna Fedyshyn endured during nearly 20 months of Russian captivity.

She survived the siege of Mariupol and the hell of Azovstal, only to face another nightmare in Russian prisons.

Her testimony is horrifying. What she witnessed, what she suffered, and what she heard happening to her fellow prisoners must never be forgotten.

I have published her story, including the terrible details of her captivity and the extraordinary strength it took to survive.

Please read it. Share it. And remember the Ukrainians who are still suffering in Russian prisons.

[Олег Володарський @volodarskijo]

Він повз 5 днів із перерізаним горлом. Росіяни кинули його в яму з тілами побратимів і пішли покурити.

Тоді Владислав чув, як кати виколюють очі його хлопцям, а потім перерізали горло йому - і кинули вмирати.

Він виповз із ями зі сміттям, двічі ховався від дронів і пʼять діб повз до своїх. Пів сантиметра від смерті. І він вижив.

Владислав - командир взводу. Під Донеччиною його взвод потрапив під щільний обстріл, і він наказав хлопцям розосередитися.

Коли втратив їх зі звʼязку - пішов шукати по хатах. І потрапив у засідку до російських зеків.

Його завели в підвал. Там на колінах, звʼязані, вже стояли його побратими - і всюди була кров. Кати різали їх на очах у Владислава.

Найбільше дісталося першим двом: їм виколювали очі, відрізали вуха, носи, статеві органи.

Вони страшно кричали. Владислав заплющував очі - і його змушували дивитися.

Потім порізали його: відрізали шматок вуха, плоскогубцями вирвали зуб і перерізали горло.

Усіх скинули в одну яму і засипали сміттям.

Росіяни не пішли одразу - стояли й курили над ямою з тілами. Владислав дочекався, поки вони зникнуть.

У смітті він знайшов розбиту пляшку. Склом перерізав мотузку на звʼязаних руках. І поповз.

По ньому били дрони. Два дні він переховувався в якомусь люку. Повз пʼять діб - поки не дістався своїх.

У руці він тримав гранату: були думки все кинути. Але донька й дружина дали сил доповзти.

Лікарі не могли повірити: "Він був, ніби жертва маньяка. Повністю пошкоджена трахея, частина мʼязів шиї і стравоходу".

А хірург додав: "З обох боків було по пів сантиметра до смерті. Зачепило б сонну артерію - і все закінчилося б за півтори хвилини".

Він пройшов реабілітацію, під час якої не міг говорити, - писав дружині й брату в блокноті.

Владислав писав дружині, що хоче назад на Донеччину - помститися хоча б за тих сімох хлопців, яких стратили у нього на очах.

President Zelenskyy:

Russians have taken thousands of Ukrainian children from our land. Now, we see something even worse.

Russia has already started sending some of these children, children they stole from us, who have grown up during this war, grown up over these years, into the Russian army. And this is horrible, and it must stop.

@RepJeffries !!!!!!!!!

[Not Your Average Liberal @NotAvgLiberal]

This message is for @RepJeffries .

America has seen you on the news…

Saying you’re only going to concentrate on “Affordability For the American People”.
While side stepping questions about impeaching Trump.

Now listen up.

Accountability is going to happen.

The Judiciary Committee will occupy 12 members of House Democrats.

The Oversight Committee will occupy 26 members of House Democrats.

This leaves you 221 democrats to work on the economy and other shit that’s fucked up.

Americans have endured atrocities under Trump and Republicans that require accountability.

Americans along with Immigrants have been illegally detained, deported, tortured, murdered and raped under Trump’s Department of Homeland Security.

Thousands of Rape victims have been forced to carry pregnancies to term due to laws Republicans have passed.

Forcing victims of rape to give birth to their rapist’s child.

Women have died because they were denied the rights to an abortion.
Again because of laws Republicans have passed.

Women were hunted down and prosecuted for having abortions.

Muslims, Jews and other non-Christians have been made the targets of hate and murder…
Because of their 1st Amendment right to practice a their religion.
While Republicans forced their religion onto others in Public Schools, Hospitals and in our Courts.

The LGBTQ and Trans Communities have had laws passed against them…
They’ve been demonized and been victims of hate crimes and murder due to MAGA rhetoric.

People have died due to measles outbreaks and other diseases…
Due to policies put out by The Department of Health and Human Services.

Many politicians and people within Trump’s inner circle,
Have made billions of dollars off illegal business dealings.

And finally -
The biggest sex trafficking ring in modern history…
Has been sidelined to protect the wealthy and well connected.

The Epstein Files need to be fully investigated.

The victims deserve justice.

The guilty deserve accountability.

So whatever path these investigations lead you down…

Down the path of a Democrat…

Down the path of a Republican…

Down the path to Donald Trump…

These investigations will happen.

This is not a matter of “Fixing Affordability For America” and sidelining the rest.
Because you’ve made friends with those in Trump’s inner circle…

It’s a matter of 360 Accountability.

We demonstrated what we can do at the polls.

We took out the majority of the Republican Trash.

You will bring accountability.

Or you’ll be the next load of trash taken out.

You work for us.

We demand accountability.

Get it done.

If you have any questions…

Feel free to ask any democrat voter.

(If you follow me, or you agree with my post… Please repost it.)

(I want as many democrat lawmakers as possible to see this.
Especially @RepJeffries )

[George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸 @gtconway3d]

It’s not a question of "getting even."

It’s not even a question.

It’s a duty.

It’s the power and duty of Congress to provide oversight. To ensure that the executive branch is being operated in accordance with the Constitution and the laws that Congress has enacted on the people’s behalf. And to ensure that tax dollars are being spent in the interests of the people, and not for the benefit of the public servants who administer the accounts on the people’s behalf.

This power and duty was exercised by Congress from the earliest moments of the Washington Administration. It has been forsaken by corrupt and craven Congresses of recent years.

It is the new Congress's solemn obligation to resume performance of its duty to oversee the executive branch, and any leader who can’t commit to that obligation should stand aside.

💔 42 people have been killed in Komyshuvakha so far.

@RpsAgainstTrump

[Tucker Carlson @TuckerCarlson]

Under pressure from Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the Trump administration may be within days of launching a nuclear strike on Iran. The target would be Pickax Mountain in central Iran, where Israeli intelligence claims the Iranian government has restarted its nuclear enrichment program. No conventional weapon in the American arsenal can penetrate 300 feet of solid granite to destroy the tunnels where enrichment is supposedly taking place. The only military option is a nuclear strike. Netanyahu has been pushing hard for one. “Bibi calls Trump about it every day,” says an informed observer.

Netanyahu is cornered and desperate. After last week’s election results, he can’t form a government unless Trump intervenes directly in Israeli politics and brokers a deal with other parties that gives Netanyahu 61 seats in the Knesset. Otherwise, he is out as prime minister and on his way to ignominy, investigations and possibly jail. Netanyahu must stay close to Trump. He needs this war.

To that end, he’s applied maximum pressure to his closest allies in the administration, including Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and CENTCOM commander Brad Cooper. Both oppose a negotiated settlement to the war they’ve so grievously mismanaged; both are pushing to restart major combat operations. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and CIA director John Ratcliffe are also following Netanyahu’s lead, as are leaders of the Democratic Party. In a recent meeting on the subject, former president Barack Obama said he opposes the current Iran peace deal being drafted in Doha.

The rest of America’s longtime allies in the Middle East are terrified by the prospect of more war. On September 27th, Netanyahu flew secretly to Abu Dhabi to enlist the UAE in his lobbying effort for a final attack on Iran. The Emiratis refused. After eight months of conflict, Gulf economies are teetering. So are global energy and fertilizer markets. They won’t recover soon. Globally, there are a total of about 850 supertankers used to transport oil from producers to the rest of the world. In October alone, 11 of them were badly damaged in Hormuz. At this pace, a global depression is imminent. A nuclear strike would radically accelerate the destruction. Fallout from a ground explosion at Pickax Mountain would contaminate the Persian Gulf, poisoning the water supply for 100 million people.

And those are just some of the immediate consequences for the region. The rest of the world is every bit as exposed. No country other than the United States has ever used a nuclear weapon in war. Some would like to. An American nuclear attack on Iran would set a new precedent. The Russians have already told at least two other governments that an American nuclear strike on Iran would free them to use nuclear weapons against Ukraine. Pakistan and India would be tempted to do the same against each other, as would North Korea against Seoul. After the first nuclear strike, World War Three is inevitable. That war would be short and final.

We’ve been sleepwalking toward this moment for months. Since February, the administration has quietly rewritten America’s nuclear doctrine to make first use of so-called “battlefield nukes” easier and therefore more likely. No one in Washington in either party seems bothered by this. Now we’re on the brink of it.

Close observers say Trump is likely to decide by next weekend whether or not to use nuclear weapons. That would be November 7, six days from now. To his credit, he’s hesitating. At the moment, Trump is listening to his vice president, JD Vance, and to his envoy and friend Steve Witkoff, both of whom argue a deal with Iran can be made.

They’re right, though it won’t be simple. The Iranians are famously frustrating to negotiate with under any circumstances, and elements of that government have become more radical since Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his family were killed in February. After decades of isolation, even relatively moderate Iranian leaders seem confused by how decisions are made in the West. (There is a widespread belief in Tehran, for example, that the United States government controls Israel.) But overall, people who have spoken to decision-makers in Iran say there is consensus there that more war is bad for everyone and a deal is worth making.

One group that hasn’t been consulted so far is the global population — the hundreds of millions of people who will be killed along with their children if Trump is pushed by Netanyahu into launching a nuclear strike next week. Now would be the time for them to speak up.

[Alexandre 🇺🇦 @Toriadus]

Ukrainian children killed by Russia in October 2026. This month was one of the deadliest of 2026 in terms of child casualties.

@FilmUpdates I’m so mad about it! I’ve been waiting and waiting. now I know what happened😤

[ADAM @adamemedia]

Netanyahu said Spain would have train crashes.

Now Spain is having train crashes.

The crashes are caused by system faults.

Israeli companies have access to Spanish train systems…
