Is it just me, or are pro-Russia accounts and bots all over this platform while accounts supporting Ukraine barely get any visibility?

MAGA ally Orbán was a communist secret policeman...

Do Melania's past next

[Vatnik Soup @vatniksoup]

Bombshell investigation by @panyiszabolcs:

Hungary's former PM Miklós Németh claims he personally saw three handwritten reports that Viktor Orbán allegedly wrote for communist military counterintelligence in the 1980s.

The reports allegedly contained information on fellow soldiers, including their political views, religious beliefs and sexual orientations.

In other words, Orbán is accused of informing on his fellow soldiers to the communist regime's security apparatus.

Soon Hegseth will be back to having 3 too many at a TGI Fridays in Falls Church

[Larisa Brown @larisamlbrown]

A US military source says: "Hegseth's days are numbered". There are differing views on why - some believe he will face inevitable impeachment by the Democrats, others believe Trump will sack him as the fall guy for the disastrous Iran war.
Either way, he has already alienated significant parts of the US military.

One senior military officer, not authorised to speak on the record, tells @thetimes: "Personally, after decades of service and five combat deployments I’m just tired of being called ‘woke’ by a secretary who seems to spend more time worrying about NCO business than actually making serious policy decisions."

Witkoff's humanitarian idol strikes again

[Faytuks News @Faytuks]

The russian attack against the Humanitarian aid center in Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia oblast has killed at least 33 people, with more than 50 missing.

The school that was used as the aid center was completely destroyed.

I have to update my previous report once again.

Norway has now reported a suspected cyberattack targeting the Havaristen department store, where manipulated freezer systems caused temperatures to rise and triggered the sprinkler system, resulting in significant damage.

🇳🇴 Norway becomes the 14th country affected by this ongoing wave of cyberattacks targeting refrigeration and freezer systems across Europe.

Intensely observing Russia attack allied shipping and doing literally nothing about it

[itamilradar @ItaMilRadar]

Today has been a day of intense NATO activity over the Black Sea. It has been a long time since we last tracked such a concentration of SIGINT activity all at once.

‼️Sky News has obtained exclusive drone footage documenting how Russian forces exploited the evacuation of civilians from occupied Oleshky for military purposes.

Before, during and after humanitarian corridor, Russian troops were moving heavy military equipment, weapons, ammunition, personnel and supplies into Oleshky and nearby villages.

They searched civilian homes for basements to establish new military positions, retook previously lost positions and removed the bodies of civilians killed by shelling and mines from the morgue, apparently to cover up evidence.

This is how Russia uses humanitarian evacuations.

Info is from @safarov_ FB post. Full Sky News report in the link below.

[Lee DiSantis @leedisantis]

Russians are using the "ceasefire" in Oleshky to gather military reserves for a renewed attack on Kherson. They will cynically exploit any attempt at peace to improve their military situation. The only real path to peace is through their destruction

[Chris Knickerbocker @C_Knickerbocker]

Update:
Erste Aufnahmen bestätigen das was viele befürchteten: Russland ging in der Region die Puste aus. Unmengen an Munition und Person erreichen Positionen die lange unerreicht blieben. Die Positionen werden befestigt und ausgebaut. Diese Waffenruhe war nie für Frieden gedacht. Sie gibt Russland die Ruhe um sich auf einen eventuellen Sturm auf Kherson vorzubereiten. Der einzige Trost für uns: wir werden einige alte, kranke, verletzte davor rausbringen können. Mark my words: danach bricht in Kherson die Hölle auf Erden ein.

Viele im Team gehen davon aus das man Einwohner zwingt die Simferopol Route zu wählen um die Propaganda mit „all diese Menschen haben sich für Russland entschieden“‘zu füttern.

Mein Appell an die Bewohner die es lesen: ich weiß wie sehr ihr Auto Stadt liebt aber um sie wieder aufbauen zu können müsst ihr überleben. Falls ihr Verwandte habt nutzt die Chance nun. Nummer des Evakuierungsbüro Kherson: [phone]

China must be continuously astonished at how easy it is to compromise western leaders

[Byron Wan @Byron_Wan]

🇬🇧 PM Andy Burnham approved a series of loans to 🇭🇰 Far East Consortium (FEC; 遠東發展) when he was Manchester mayor after accepting hospitality from one of its commercial partners.

The cash was handed out between 2021 and 2026 — the interest rate remains a secret. It followed his visit to China in 2018, aimed at boosting trade.

The £4,796 cost of flights, hotels and lunch was covered by the Manchester China Forum, a public–private partnership set up by George Osborne in 2013 to boost trade links. It is a 'corporate partner' of FEC.

The revelation comes after he was criticized for taking two free dinners from Manchester City's chairman before handing them £55 million in loans.

“First, it was the Manchester City fiasco, now this … Is it another case of 'lunches for loans'? The questions about Andy Burnham's judgment are just not going away.”

FEC's boss David Chiu (邱達昌) was vice chairman of CCP united front group 🇨🇳 All-China Federation of Industry and Commerce (中华全国工商业联合会 or 全国工商联 for short) from 2017 to 2022. He has also sat on a highly influential 'advisory body' between businesses and the state since 2013.

FEC's main building contractor for its flagship project in Manchester is wholly owned by state-owned 🇨🇳 Zhejiang Construction Group.

And the chief executive's brother, Duncan Chiu (邱達根), is a politician on the Hong Kong Legislative Council.

Critics say the loans followed a similar pattern to those handed out to the Abu Dhabi owners of Manchester City, which Housing Secretary Angela Rayner is being urged to investigate.

While there is no suggestion of wrongdoing by FEC, critics have questioned why taxpayers' money should be given to an international company which makes more than £500 million a year.

The only trustworthy Senator

[NOELREPORTS 🇪🇺 🇺🇦 @NOELreports]

Canadian manufacturer Roshel says nearly 3,000 Senator armored vehicles have now gone to Ukraine. That makes the Senator one of the most numerous Western-supplied armored vehicles in Ukrainian service. Ukraine uses them to transport troops, evacuate wounded personnel and conduct patrol and reconnaissance missions. Canada has funded part of the fleet, while other donor countries and Ukraine itself have also purchased vehicles. #Ukraine

[FBI Cyber Branch @FBICyberBranch]

The FBI is releasing information advising the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea) was responsible for the theft of more than $6 billion USD in virtual assets from cryptocurrency exchange, Binance, on or about October 29, 2026. The FBI refers to this specific North Korean malicious cyber activity as "TraderTraitor."

The FBI, together with partners at the USSS and IRS-CI, has observed TraderTraitor actors converting stolen assets primarily into Ethereum (ETH). It is expected these assets will then be further laundered by converting them using DeFi and instant swap services as they prepare them for further laundering stages.

How You Can Help:
FBI, USSS, and IRS-CI are urging private sector entities including THORNode operators, RPC node operators, instant exchanges, DeFi services, blockchain analytics firms, and other virtual asset service providers to block transactions with or derived from addresses TraderTraitor actors are using to launder these stolen assets.

A list of addresses associated with this activity is available here: https://t.co/g0oIWx0WeD
