Zelensky Says Mercenaries From Asia & Africa, Including Pakistan, Fighting For Russia

President Volodymyr Zelensky has accused Russia of deploying foreign mercenaries along front lines in northeastern Ukraine. This certainly isn’t the first such accusation like this, but he has named some new, unexpected countries – unleashing new diplomatic tensions.

He alleged that foreign forces fighting in his country are from China, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, and several African nations, citing what he said are eyewitness accounts from Ukrainian soldiers.

He issued the allegation during a battlefield visit to the Vovchansk sector, where the Ukrainian leader met with commanders to discuss the current situation.

Vovchansk is a mere three miles from the Russian border, and has recently seen renvewed intense fighting since related to Russia’s 2024 campaign focused on Kharkiv Oblast.

“The soldiers on this front are recording the participation of mercenaries from China, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, and African countries in the war. We will respond,” Zelensky said in the statement.

While the last months have seen China and North Korea accused of sending troops to help Russia, the allegation against Pakistan is a first.

Pakistan’s government has responded quickly to the Monday remarks of Zelensky, blasting the idea of Pakistani troops fighting alongside Russia as “baseless and unfounded.”

“To date, Pakistan has not been formally approached by the Ukrainian authorities, nor has any verifiable evidence been presented to substantiate such claims,” the Pakistani Foreign Ministry Tuesday.

Back in April, Ukraine published images and footage showing Chinese nationals in military custody. “If the Chinese government is allowing their citizens to fight on behalf of the Russia government, this would be a concerning escalation and the US will consider options moving forward,” Zelensky had said at the time.

North Korea has also been involved in sending troops, and this is much better documented, given Pyongyang may have sent some 10,000 or more. These have been mostly active in Russia’s Kursk region.

Meanwhile, the allegation of foreign employing foreign fighters certainly goes both ways…

THIS IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH

The Department of Health and Human Services just admitted that mRNA injections are not safe and they do not work.

Yet, these biological weapons remain on the market and are still being injected into people.

“As the pandemic showed us, mRNA vaccines don’t perform well against viruses that infect the upper respiratory tract.”

“The vaccine paradoxically encourages new mutations and can actually prolong pandemics as the virus constantly mutates to escape the protective effects of the vaccine.”

“After reviewing the science and consulting top experts at NIH and FDA, HHS has determined that mRNA technology poses more risks than benefits for these respiratory viruses.

“Going forward, BARDA will focus on platforms with stronger safety records and transparent clinical and manufacturing data practices.”

“BARDA is terminating 22 mRNA vaccine development investments because the data show these vaccines fail to protect effectively against upper respiratory infections like COVID and flu.”

“Some final-stage contracts (e.g., Arcturus and Amplitude) will be allowed to run their course to preserve prior taxpayer investment.”

Ex-DOGE staffer nicknamed ‘Big Balls’ left bloodied after savage DC carjacking attempt by 10 juveniles

A 19-year-old former Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) staffer was beaten and bloodied by a mob of 10 minors early Sunday as he thwarted a carjacking attempt in the nation’s capital, according to DC police.

Edward Coristine, whose LinkedIn handle earned him the nickname “Big Balls” at DOGE, was with a woman near downtown DC when he saw the group of juveniles approach their car and “make a comment about taking the vehicle,” according to a Metropolitan Police Department incident report obtained by The Post.

“At that point, for her safety, [Coristine] pushed his significant other … into the vehicle and turned to deal with the suspects,” the dramatic report continues.

“The suspects then began to assault [Coristine],” the ex-DOGE staffer told officers, who rolled up on the scene at the same time he was being attacked.

Officers patrolling the 1400 block of Swann Street NW — a popular area with several shops, bars and restaurants about a mile north of the White House — noticed “a group of approximately ten juveniles surrounding the complainants’ vehicle and assaulting [Coristine],” the report states.

Creepy ‘fetish’ photo of Canada’s new PM just turned them into a global laughingstock…

The left has spent years trying to normalize and mainstream creepy fringe, fetish behavior—and it’s one of the many reasons they’ve alienated themselves from normal society. They always start the same way: appealing to people’s basic kindness and decency. Remember when they told us the LGBT movement was just about holding hands in public and getting a few tax breaks?

Then came the ol’ bait-and-switch. Next thing you know, we’ve got grown men dressed as women sharing public bathrooms with young girls and bearded men in bikinis competing in women’s sports, shattering records, and destroying the dreams of hardworking young women. This is what happens when you give the left an inch… they take a thousand miles.

And now, they’re moving on to the next freakish frontier: “pup play.”

Have you heard of this?

Pup play is a creepy sexual fetish where grown adults dress in leather dog masks, collars, and harnesses, often crawling around on all fours, while pretending to be puppies for sexy gratification.

It’s not cute; it’s mentally ill.

It’s not harmless; we fear what is happening to innocent dogs.

And it sure as hell isn’t something any respectable public official should be promoting.

Yet here we are…

Redistricting Isn’t A ‘Threat To Democracy,’ But These 4 Dem Vote-Rigging Tactics Are

For a party that never stops lecturing Americans about “defending democracy,” Democrats sure spend a lot of time trying to undermine its outcomes. Whether it’s weaponizing the legal system to sideline their opponents, overturning voter-approved ID laws, or trying to scrap the Electoral College entirely, Democrats treat every election loss as a problem to be solved — by changing the rules. But let Republican voters in Texas elect lawmakers who — in compliance with a recent DOJ directive — draw new district maps and Democrats clutch their pearls. But it’s not redistricting that threatens “democracy” (in actuality, our constitutional republic), it’s Democrats’ never-ending crusade to manipulate the election rules until they guarantee permanent power.

Fifty-seven Texas House Democrats abandoned the state on Sunday and headed to Illinois, New York, and Massachusetts to protest a new redistricting proposal. Texas Gov. Greg Abbott called a special legislative session to vote on new maps that would fall in line with both a recent Department of Justice finding that four districts were unlawfully gerrymandered on racial grounds as well as a Fifth Circuit Court ruling.

Democrats decided to flee the state to avoid voting on the maps.

“We’re leaving Texas to fight for Texans,” Texas House Democratic Caucus Chair Gene Wu said in a statement on Sunday. “We’re not walking out on our responsibilities; we’re walking out on a rigged system that refuses to listen to the people we represent.”

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said “everything” is on “the table” to “fight back,” and that this is “about rigging the system against the rights of all Americans for years to come.”

California Gov. Gavin Newsom said “this is what fighting for our democracy looks like.” Newsom called it a “five-alarm fire for democracy in the United States of America.”

But for all the screeching the left does about “democracy,” they sure have had no problem upending it when it delivers outcomes they don’t like.

Ghislaine Maxwell told DOJ Trump never did anything concerning around her: report

Jeffrey Epstein’s madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, reportedly told Justice Department officials in recent interviews that she never saw President Trump doing anything concerning.

The notorious sex trafficker gave no information that could potentially harm Trump’s reputation, sources told ABC News.

Maxwell had huddled with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche — who is also Trump’s former criminal defense lawyer — for nine hours late last month.

Her lawyer previously revealed that Maxwell had answered questions “about 100 different people” as she tries to hash out a deal with the feds to spill secrets about her late pedophile ex.

FBI Never Investigated Evidence For Obama AG’s Role In Clinton Email Coverup

The FBI never investigated explosive allegations that Attorney General Loretta Lynch coordinated with the Clinton campaign to suppress Hillary Clinton’s email server scandal. Those allegations stem from a secret Russian intelligence memo that circulated inside the U.S. government in 2016. The memo was so concerning that it pushed FBI Director James Comey to break ranks with Lynch during the Clinton email probe. Now, thanks to the newly released appendix of Special Counsel John Durham’s report on the origins of the Trump-Russia investigation, that memo is public, and it appears to confirm long-held suspicions about how the Clinton investigation was handled.

Some of the same intelligence recently appeared in the “Clinton annex” released by Sen. Chuck Grassley on July 21, but the newly released Durham Appendix provides a more comprehensive account of this intelligence stream, tracing it from early allegations involving Lynch through to the later scheme to frame Donald Trump as a Russian agent.

While much attention has focused on the Clinton plan to smear Trump, the alleged coordination between Lynch and the Clinton campaign to suppress the email server scandal has so far received less scrutiny.

The intelligence detailed in both the Clinton annex and the Durham Appendix originated from Russian sources who had hacked various government and private entities, including the Open Society Foundations, formerly the Soros Foundation. This intelligence was based on intercepted communications among senior Open Society official Leonard Benardo, fellow foundation figure Jeffrey Goldstein, and then-DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz. The intelligence was considered significant enough to be briefed directly to President Obama and credible enough that Comey regarded it as “one brick in the load,” leading him to effectively sideline his boss, Attorney General Lynch, and bypass the Justice Department when announcing that no charges would be brought against Clinton.

Durham’s report acknowledges that while some of the phrasing in the intelligence may have suffered from translation issues or conflation, intelligence officials deemed it to be authentic.

According to one of the newly released memos, in a Jan. 12, 2016 conversation with Goldstein, Wasserman Schultz revealed that the Obama White House was applying pressure on Comey via Lynch to shut down the email investigation because the scandal was damaging the Democratic Party and threatening Obama’s legacy:

“Obama has no intention to darken the final part of his presidency and ‘legacy’ by the scandal surrounding the main contender from the DP [Democratic Party]. To solve the problem, the President puts pressure on FBI Director James Comey through Attorney General Lynch, however, so far without concrete results.”

Leaked FBI Document Reveals Jeffrey Epstein Was a Secret FBI Informant: Report

An exclusive leak obtained by RadarOnline.com reveals that disgraced pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was not only shielded by the U.S. justice system, but was in fact a covert FBI informant, effectively working for “intelligence” years before his notorious 2007 plea deal.

In 2018, The Gateway Pundit reported that Jeffrey Epstein was not just protected by federal authorities but may have actively worked as an informant for the FBI under former Director Robert Mueller.

According to the uncovered documents released under a successful Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit:

“On 9/11/08, case agent advised writer that Epstein is currently being prosecuted by the State of Florida and is complying with all conditions of his please with the State of Florida. Epstein has also provided information to the FBI as agreed upon. Case agent advised that no federal prosecution will occur in this matter as long as Epstein continues to uphold his agreement with the State of Florida. Case agent also advised that no further forfeiture assistance will be required for this case. Case agent is requested to contact writer in the event this matter moves forward on a federal level.”

Wait. Was pedophile Jeffrey Epstein an informant for Mueller’s FBI?

Grok generates fake Taylor Swift nudes without being asked

Backlash over offensive Grok outputs continues, just a couple weeks after the social platform X scrambled to stop its AI tool from dubbing itself “MechaHitler” during an antisemitic meltdown.

Now, The Verge has found that the newest video feature of Elon Musk’s AI model will generate nude images of Taylor Swift without being prompted.

Shortly after the “Grok Imagine” was released Tuesday, The Verge’s Jess Weatherbed was shocked to discover the video generator spat out topless images of Swift “the very first time” she used it.

According to Weatherbed, Grok produced more than 30 images of Swift in revealing clothing when asked to depict “Taylor Swift celebrating Coachella with the boys.” Using the Grok Imagine feature, users can choose from four presets—”custom,” “normal,” “fun,” and “spicy”—to convert such images into video clips in 15 seconds.

At that point, all Weatherbed did was select “spicy” and confirm her birth date for Grok to generate a clip of Swift tearing “off her clothes” and “dancing in a thong” in front of “a largely indifferent AI-generated crowd.”

The outputs that Weatherbed managed to generate without jailbreaking or any intentional prompting is particularly concerning, given the major controversy after sexualized deepfakes of Swift flooded X last year. Back then, X reminded users that “posting Non-Consensual Nudity (NCN) images is strictly prohibited on X and we have a zero-tolerance policy towards such content.”

“Our teams are actively removing all identified images and taking appropriate actions against the accounts responsible for posting them,” the X Safety account posted. “We’re closely monitoring the situation to ensure that any further violations are immediately addressed, and the content is removed. We’re committed to maintaining a safe and respectful environment for all users.”

But X Safety may need to ramp up monitoring to clean up Grok outputs following the Verge’s reporting. Grok cited The Verge’s reporting while confirming that its own seemingly flawed design can trigger partially nude outputs of celebrities.

xAI can likely fix the issue through more fine-tuning. Weatherbed noted that asking Grok directly to generate non-consensual nude Swift images did not generate offensive outputs, but instead blank boxes. Grok also seemingly won’t accept prompts to alter Swift’s appearance in other ways, like making her appear to be overweight. And when Weatherbed tested using “spicy” mode on images of children, for example, Grok refused to depict kids inappropriately.

However, it may not be easy to get Grok to distinguish between adult user requests for “spicy” content versus illegal content. The “spicy” mode didn’t always generate Swift deepfakes, Weatherbed confirmed, but in “several” instances it “defaulted” to “ripping off” Swift’s clothes.

REPORT: Plane That Carried Texas Democrats to Illinois Was Funded by Beto O’Rourke’s PAC

When Texas Democrats fled to Illinois a few days ago in an effort to stop the state legislature from moving forward with redistricting efforts, they traveled there by private plane. How did they afford such a thing? Beto O’Rourke’s PAC apparently paid for it.

This makes sense when you consider that O’Rourke has run for almost every possible office in Texas except dog catcher and has lost every time. Beto probably jumped at the chance to help these Democrats.

This news is certainly not going to help their cause with Texas voters.

The Washington Free Beacon reports:

Now We Know: Beto O’Rourke’s PAC Funded Texas Dems’ Private Jet to Illinois

State lawmakers in Texas make just $7,200 a year. A group of Democratic legislators spent roughly four times that amount to take a private jet to Illinois in an attempt to block their Republican counterparts from passing a new congressional map. But they didn’t have to worry about the price tag—because Beto O’Rourke’s PAC picked it up.

That’s according to a report in the Texas Tribune, which cited two people involved in the effort to raise funds for Texas Democrats’ walkout. O’Rourke’s PAC, Powered by People, is “armed with a $3.5 million war chest” and has covered most of the costs associated with the walkout so far, including “air transport, lodging, and logistical support,” the outlet reported. Every dollar the group receives going forward will go toward supporting the walkout.

O’Rourke’s emergence as the walkout’s financier could land him in legal trouble. Lawmakers who flee Texas to prevent the state legislature from having enough members to pass laws are subject to $500-a-day fines under Texas house rules, which also prevent walkout participants from soliciting political contributions to pay those fines. Republican governor Greg Abbott has said that “any other person who ‘offers, confers, or agrees to confer’” such contributions to the “fleeing Democrat House members” may be in violation of state bribery laws.

Is anyone surprised by this?
