Earlier this month Ukrainian businessman Tymur Mindich, co-owner of Kvartal 95 the Ukrainian TV production company Volodymyr Zelenskyy founded before he became president, fled the country as the NABU (National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine) announced results from a widespread corruption probe.
Money given to Ukraine for subsidies was being skimmed from the energy sector by several high-profile government and business officials. The NABU probe and raids on offices to discover document trails of the officials is ongoing.
Today, NABU officials raided the home of Andriy Yermak (pictured left), head of the Office of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Simultaneous with the raid, Zelenskyy announced the firing of Yermak from his office:
“There will be a reset of the Office of the President of Ukraine. The Head of the Office, Andriy Yermak, has submitted his resignation. I am grateful to Andriy for always representing Ukraine’s position on the negotiation track exactly as it should be represented. It has always been a patriotic position. But I want to eliminate any rumors and speculation.” (SOURCE)
As I shared earlier regarding the NABU investigation, I have personally seen these corrupt Ukraine characters (politicians and private sector oligarchs) in action, literally spending tens-of-thousands of U.S. taxpayer funds (in cash) at the Port of Montenegro while I was tracking them in 2023 and 2024. They were staying in massive suites at the Regent Hotel, expensive boats and exotic cars with each. So please, don’t try to sell me on the honorable Ukraine politician schtick.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy is worried the Russians will use the corruption story to undermine his government, so he has spent the past two weeks on the phone with his U.K/USA and EU benefactors trying to keep the supportive money flowing while his government officials skim the funds.
However, notice how quiet the U.S. Senate has been on this explosive story about Ukraine officials being caught skimming money. The Senate is quiet because almost two-thirds of the senators are taking money from the laundry operation [LIST HERE].It’s not just Ukraine officials making money from the massive EU/USA funding scheme.
(Via Politico) KYIV — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy fired his top adviser Andriy Yermak on Friday amid a snowballing graft probe.
Yermak has been by the president’s side as the second-most powerful man in Kyiv for years and is a key interlocutor with Ukraine’s Western allies as it resists Russia’s full-scale invasion.
“I am grateful to Andriy for the fact that the Ukrainian position in the negotiation track has always been presented by him exactly as it should be. It has always been a patriotic position. But I want there to be no rumors and speculation,” Zelenskyy said. (read more)
“We caught them all, we caught the Swamp” (Both fake opposition parties)
Zelensky had ‘private’ meetings with supporting American politicians both here in America and overseas. … An inquiry should be made to find out if a large envelope of cash was exchange. After all, the famous Joe Biden bragged about the ‘kickback’ >scam that is part of American Foreign Assistance.
A large number of American should be subjected to the famous Dominican Water Treatment to ascertain the illegal scams that occur with our American politicians.
Oh wow, Biden gets what McCain and Lyndsey got, Ukraine’s highest non civilian award! When does Jill get her diamond necklace?
I remember when they wore Ukrainian flag lapel pins. What an absurd performance by US Congressmembers.
Yet another reason to be skeptical of their allegiance.
I hope someone is achieving a[n extensive] rogues gallery of US politicians involved in supporting this Ukraine War.
Revolting 🤢
Funny thing about Sunlight. You just can’t outrun it forever.
Eventually it will burn.
Especially the
vampirespoliticians!Thankfully, the CIA is not involved???
Tool of a corrupt Senate. Yes, they are involved. So too were all government employees involved with Ukraine. Especially those that testified for FJB against Trump.
Am guessing those relationships are more symbiotic than directive in nature.
I think the word is “coercive”. CIA generally doesn’t need the Senate to do the malevolent things they (CIA) do. The darkest actions are likely done “off the books”, avoiding both oversight AND financial traceability.
But it’s a sure bet that CIA (via spies, 5 Eyes, and NSA) have “the goods” on every Senator (and House Rep.) who has EVER stepped over any line – legal and/or moral – and uses that closely held evidence to obtain approval at best or silence at minimum.
Agreed.
Good points.
Check the links in the article. More info there.
😆🤣😂
The cia is always involved when it comes to money…AND the folks at Langley sure do know which of our illustrious CONgress critters and clowns have some freshly laundered money tucked away. The ukraine story is getting very old and tiring.
IMAGINE WWG1WGA: Allthe people living for today ahhhhhhahhha… LOVE YOUR NEXT BREATH IT ISNT PROMISED. Dadada!!JMHO
Glad I had a wet/dry vac close, saved the keyboard.
{coffee spew}
They got to pull Russia out from helping secular Syria against Al-Qaeda & ISIS with the Ukraine psyop. That is the one I think most miss. Ty as always Sundance
Not me. I’m still 🤬over them removing Assad, resulting in much brutality and murder of secular and Christian people.
Ty lolli. Your a gem. Cheers
Guessing with that list of US SENATORS on the kickback list from the Ukraine scam, a Senate bill to give all of Ukraine to Russia just end the farce and not further expose the Senate’s corruption would likely pass with a 100% support
All the texans in Texas should see that CORNYN is on the list and Paxton should put it out there in a TV commercial.
He is dirty as heck. And then he runs all these ads clinging to Trump. He’s just disgusting. Cornyn has to go.
🤣
Sad to see, “Trust” Grassley on the list.
They know, they nose.
Thank you, Sundance. 👍
Well, its 71 and partly sunny in Miami!
Yep 70 about an hour or so north with nice 20 mph breeze, pretty blue ocean.
Hopefully Z would get to know, kept Nancy out of FL.
I wish I were there! PSL had 88 and sunny last Sunday morning…
30 degrees in the SW burbs of Chicago…still raking leaves…while planning on shoveling snow tomorrow…
Yeah, I grew up there out in the farm country. About 40 miles west of Chicago.
Corn, soy beans, tomatoes, cows, and hogs.
Glad my parents moved to St Pete in 1971.
You would not recognize that area now….
Had some jobs at BP refinery in Whiting a few years ago, on weekends drove to the old area, seen a couple cousins and old neighborhood friends.
Big changes, don’t miss a thing, much prettier here looking at the ocean.
Just got my snowblower off the trailer today in SE WI.
Hoping not to get 6-10 tomorrow…
Am hoping this is like the one snow-pocolypse that did not happen…calling for 5-8 by me.
I do it the old fashioned way…shoveling…snowblower is just like my lawn mower….cost more to get them to pick it up when it needs repairs…am prepared…heating pad works…have plenty of motrin…and ice melt.
Come on, man, they are neighbors on the exclusive, private island on the SE Florida coast where their multimillion dollar estates are gated and secured almost next to each other. they could have house warming parties and invite all of their multimillionaire neighbors over to laugh and joke about how stupid the Average USA citizen is easily duped into giving them millions in tax payer funding.
“Wouldn’t “
Rumor has it that Zman owns property in sunny Miami.
…I think he will run to mommy in Tel AVIV….
It’s amazing that it’s all playing out exactly as we here at CTH have been plainly realizing and explaining to the rest of the world for the past three years.
An in-your-face money laundering and grift operation from the get-go. Not only for the corrupt-as-hell politicos and oligarchs in Ukraine, who have the second-most corrupt government in the world, but also for the dirt-bag Uniparty criminals in the US Congress, who are part of the FIRST most corrupt government in the world.
We knew Zelensky was merely a puppet, to be thrown away when his usefulness was up. We knew the CIA and its cohort criminal foreign intelligence agencies were the maestros of the grift and extortion, and keeping the war going.
Look what they’ve done to Ukraine. Look what they’ve done to Europe. Look what they’ve done to our own country.
All of it for money, power, prestige, and control.
I could not be more disgusted.
There was never a doubt here at the tree….ever. The frustration was convincing others to take off the blinders and see reality. Brain dead….Here’s hoping this will kick in the door in that cesspool in DC. ‘Lead the way to real reform; throw these thugs and slugs behind bars….before they hit the GALLOWS.
I’m right there next to you!
Had a feeling this was the case.
Slimy Starmer keeps acting as if Great Britain is still part of the EU . . . looking forward to what will happen in Parliament at some point:
“What do YOU have to say about this, Mr. Starmer? How much of the wealth belonging to the British people has been flushed down this toilet?”
Almost all he could get his hands on, now is increasing the taxes on British citizens to try and cover the losses.
Now start looking into our politicians! Don’t forget that special golden cracker-jack prize, The Kenyan!
No Christmas party?
There’s no doubt about that.
I want to be made whole.
Robbed by the very people voted in to represent and protect us .
Governed by a bunch of fraudsters?
Elon has the receipts, it appears.
Yes.
Unfortunately, the story is so huge and appalling the average America citizen would never believe it.
Why should they? Their whole belief system is based on the output of the corporate media from the first time they put a pacifier in their mouth.
Yep. That $2,000 “stimmy check” (which we will not be el”elegible” to receive) is insulting. Refund those income taxes stolen-preferably in precious metals at this point.
It must be frustrating.
We have been controlling them via our corruption. Do what we say and they can plunder our aid. The only cost is ignoring that we are plundering their aid.
But now they are getting in trouble for pilfering our aid.
Frustrating!
And wonderful.
Now, if only we can catch our plundering crooks.
“We have been controlling them via our corruption.”
I think you’ve nailed something important there. A Sundance expose in one breath.
Most are centrally located in Washington, Dc, if we only had someone couragious enough with balls, other than PDJT, to go after them, he needs some different help than what he thought he was getting w/the current cabinet members and the leftovers from Biden and Obama.
WE ( or the military) take Zelensky into custody. WE give him 2 choices. Death, or
imprisonment. Choice number two relying solely on what US and world leaders were in
on the kickbacks.
Damn it, just woke up. Can always dream, however.
Where’s the American version of NABU?
Ukraine corruption? “Hold my beer” says the CongrASS of the unUnited States.
DOGE?
How much of the skimmed money is in Volod’s pockets?
He owns multimillion dollar estates inS Fla, S France, Switzerland , and a waterfront Yacht Club/penthouse in Dubai last time I read. Ukraine skimming is a very ludicrous occupation as long as you can fleece everyone and get away with it.
Anything in the USA should be seized, sold and be applied to our debt! I can dream!
Way to much.
Now shine sunlight on all of our corrupt politicians who have skimmed all of our tax dollars.
The magnitude of this theft is massive!
“The Senate is quiet because almost two-thirds of the senators are taking money from the laundry operation [LIST HERE].”
I click on the “LIST HERE”. I see 70 “yeas”. Why does that mean that 70 are on the take? Maybe a great correlation, but not proof. (And I do believe many are with Warner from VA heading the list.)
Vomit-omyr Zel-ZIT-skyy: he was in on the scheme to set up Trump in the phone call (he was too oy by half) and the injustice done to Paul MAnafort.
It’s the 70 yea votes to send money to Ukraine.
Bundled with aid money to Taiwan and Israel. The ploy of sneaking it through with “must pass” funding.
A few of the listed are not in the Senate anymore (Casey, Manchin, Menendez, Peters, Romney, Sinema) but I am sure they are still getting their cut.
Does anyone know where Tymur Mindich fled to?
A small democratic country in the middle east, apparently, Jimmy…
…- I’ll give you three guesses which one.
To only our friend and democracy in the ME- I S R A E L !!!!!!!
Repost from other discussion thread :
“Yermak came with me, he will leave with me,” Zelensky a few years ago.
Well, Yermak resigned. So…
Z-man to exit the Presidential residence by way of a top floor window in 3… 2… 1…
US…. SEE-I -AY ..INVESTIGATION TEAM ???????
Thank you, Sundance!
What WOULD surprise me, is if U.S. politicians stopped taking money to sell out native-born U.S. citizens and the U.S. national interest as they lie about it to the American people. But that’s actually a voter issue and most voters are too ignorant and uncaring to stop it at present so their progeny can have a better future.
Mostly D’s on this list, some R’s like Thune:
Carpetbaggers.
McC-Murk-Co….usual suspects (McConnel, Murkowski and Collins).
Shocked that Barrasso not on the list
Grassley, McConnel
Enough R’s to get to 70.
Veto proof messaging.
2 on the list from probable voter fraud. Both from Georgia. Thanks Ratsberger, thanks Smartmatic.
I think this vote was during FJB days, looking at some of the names they are not in the senate anymore.
As such no need to veto proof.
True, it was.
Bill still had to go back to the House, though. Having 70 senators is a level up from the usual “bipartisan” so maybe some messaging to light a fire under Speaker Johnson.
Most elections are rigged, so you can’t really blame the voters. It is not really the case that America is split nearly 50/50 on all major issues. That’s the narrative that’s spun to get us to accept the fraud.
Thank you. So many people know it’s fixed on top of that and don’t even bother to vote for that reason!
Some are too busy trying to survive. Some have been taught not to bother with politics and some having had their hopes dashed too many times simply can’t bear to watch anymore. I don’t want to malign them.
Our elections need to be straightened out and secured! NY was red except for all the illegal & liberal/socialist votes in the cities. There’s been a mass exodus of anyone who can escape. Whether they’re liberal or conservative idk, just all my conservative family left for FL. The people are so brainwashed here they blame Trump for no HEAP and insurance costs. Funny that the only states having issues with heat funding are NY and Maine. It’s a colossal mess of media whores pushing lies and corrupt politicians on both sides!Schumer and Gilibrand would never have been elected if they didn’t cheat!
This was a vote from Feb, 13 2024. Paul objected to this bill. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/congress/senate-passes-aid-package-ukraine-israel-future-uncertain-house-rcna138502
Name just one bill Paul didn’t object to.
So Mindich fled the country.
What country did he flee to??
This is why I come here. Well done SD!
I’m shocked, shocked to find that corruption is going on in Ukraine!
Your winnings Mr Politician, oh, thank you very much!
Yes, it does appear that the walls are closing in. It’s about time.
First, Zelensky’s term as president ended in May of last year (if memory serves on the date); whereupon he cancelled elections and is no longer a legitimate holder of that office.
The fact which seems to be overlooked, or at least one which is ignored and bothers not a single soul amongst those who are intent on driving the car at speed over the cliff ahead.
And second, honour has become an antiquated virtue. Anywhere I look, especially among the political and media class in this country, I search in vain for it. There is none, with the notable exception of the man who was appointed to occupy the Office of the President of these now Dis-United States.
As Sundance has written many times and at his suggestion, we should all be counting our spoons.
Yermak isn’t the only one with both hands in the cookie jar…there or here.
That is all.
I will recant in part…because I spy another whose honour is intact.
Viktor Orbàn, as with President Trump, can still claim to possess this precious virtue, today meeting with President Putin in Moscow. The agenda of that meeting apparently covers many issues, but not least attempting to secure a meeting of the minds on the proxy war.
Is he carrying any messages from President Trump?
I wonder…
Bet blood pressures throughout the EU warmongering class…and elsewhere on this side within government who have profited by vicarious, suspect means…are high today and climbing.

“First, Zelensky’s term as president ended in May of last year (if memory serves on the date); whereupon he cancelled elections and is no longer a legitimate holder of that office.” – Betsy Jones
He actually cancelled elections the day after Russia “invaded” (Feb 2022) when he and his government declared Martial Law.
Not one single election, from presidential to local provinces has been held since.
Thank you, Bruce. As I understand it then, his “on paper” term officially ended last year. And he’s still the West’s installed and supported tyrant.
If it is of any interest, Starmerbannfurher in the UK and his Labour Party are testing the same, the cancelling of elections. On a smallish scale at first with the “suspension” of a few local ones due to district “reorganization”. This took place this year… And would you look at that!!
They’ve announced the same will occur again in next year’s, in May.
Such are the illegitimate and totalitarian methods of weak, venal despots.
There is one word missing. Firing should read firing squad.
No Miss Lindsey? I am truly shocked
Must be a typo.
Different MIC revenue streams for Graham?
He gets paid for war mongering. Only needs to vote if it’s going to be close?
Need to engage @DataRepublican ([email protected]) to figure out / expose our public figures taking Ukrainian payoffs.
At this point I’m thinking that Zelenskyy is trying to stretch the Ukraine war out until Blackrock gets those luxury villas built on the remains of Gaza so he will have a comfortable exit.
Shame we can’t have a “corruption probe” here…imagine the good we could do.
The corruption in our govt would make Ukraine’s look like small potatoes.
It begs the question, “How would we jail 2-3M people?”
Hang them?
Back to the basics, I agree!
Every penny of foreign aid of any kind the United States hands out I believe is being spent on other than intended purposes. Our own corrupt government has absolutely zero accountability for their expenditures in our country so how can we expect them to have oversight on money sent to foreign governments. We are a rapidly declining nation 38 trillion in debt. Now we’re in the midst of a color revolution going on in are country.
“Walkin’ around money.”
Yep, “WAM”
AKA Front Pocket Money.
You are correct. The foxes are in charge of the hen house.
I’d like to know the exact transactions our “public servants” (what a joke) are using to steal our money. I’m guessing $ allocate to things like “teaching transgenders in Haiti how to bake” was never intended to even teach one such person anything. But shouldn’t the source of the ill gotten gains show up on required financial disclosures? Does it go to a NGO and then a spouse or some similar person? Maybe these NGOs should be shut down…seems to me Elon said they’re a cover for massive theft.
I can just imagine the ones most on the take reading through the list. Thieves love, love, love inside
jokes.
“Teaching transgenders in Haiti how to bake”
“Hey, getta load of this one!!! My sides! My sides!”
I don’t think we have enough good guys to prosecute, indict and sue the corrupt money grubbing whores that have there hand in the kitty!
I’m sure it’s like the Clinton Foundation. Last investigation I read about them, approximately 12% of the funds go to the intended recipient. I guess they need a certain percentage paid out to keep it legal or something. The rest is all salaries and overhead.
What they did in Haiti is the norm.
10% gives a AAA rating to a charity. There are like 26 different St. Jude’s charities, which one is legit and how do I know which one Im donating too? I don’t bother. Until they give 80-90% to the actual cause, don’t bother me. Keep it in the local churches or known needy families!
No wonder I’ve been seeing TV adds for “Invest in Ukraine “.
Or for the elderly starving over there….their govt should be helping them.
That ad goes back and forth between you crane and israel with the same people in the ad.
Now that you mention it…that ‘kitchen’ and pot of ‘soup’ both look like the same, too.
This is from where the TV commercial is sourced….
https://ukraineinvest.gov.ua/en/
And let’s not skip over the biggest skimmers of all – Biden and his coke addled son. It doesn’t get any more public than that and the same reaction from Congress, as now, to boot.
Nobody saw this coming.
Am I right?
Time to start sending letters to DC asking if “……” Your rep accepted money from Ukraine and post very responce online.
Zelensky is headed for a helicopter crash.
Well, Torrijos jet crashed into a mountain…
If he refuses to jump out of it the crash will show bullet entry/exit from the back to front of his skull .
Ron Brown style.
Call up Scarface.
He should fire 🔥 himself! He has been ripping us off for years!! 💁🏻♀️
Within a week from the first bunch of small arms and ammo we sent them at the beginning of the war, 80% were stolen off the dock and shipped to the middle east to sell. The group that stole was supposedly a “biker gang” from Ukraine.
I thought they ended up in the Cartels hands?
I *Love* the smell of freshly-lanced boils in the morning… – Smells like… Victory.
This war’s gonna end some day…
Bribem’s name come up yet?
Asking for a friend….
NO MERCY!
AS IF anyone with two eyes and a brain couldn’t see/understand HOW ALL these Ukrainian “officials” became overnight millionaires…Zelensky included! Their “anti-corruption” council is nothing more than an excuse to siphon more US aid monies
When do the Senate dipwads get fired/impeached/recalled???? We need to toast quite a few a$$es in Congress! Talk time is OVER! Shut the laundromat down!
The honey pot isn’t in the Ukraine it’s in our very own Congress!! Those honey pot funds aren’t being stolen they’re being donated/given away by members of our Congress!!! JMO
Zman has planned for a rainy day.
……Sometimes it just rains on one’s parade.
From Martin Armstrong’s blog, “Zelensky Sending $50 million Per Month to USE Preparing to Flee Ukraine.”
FTA:
I reported over a week ago that Zelensky and his cronies started wiring out $50 million chunks to hidden accounts in the UAE in anticipation that Trump will push through a peace deal, and that means Zelensky can no longer prevent elections. Ukraine remains the MOST corrupt country in the world. The only question has been how much was being redirected to the Democrats to defeat Trump and the Neocons.
There is NO WAY Zelensky can stay in Ukraine. He will be dragged out in the streets and crucified, as they have been doing to some Russian soldiers, and set on fire. He will flee somewhere, I suspect the UK, where Starmer will protect him at least as long as the Labor Party can retain power against the rising star of Nigel Farage.
https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/international-news/ukraine/zelensky-sending-50-million-per-month-to-use-preparing-to-flee-ukraine/
… how much was being redirected to the Democrats
to defeat Trumpand the Neocons to defeat TrumpFixed that for you.
Works for me!
no he will flee to little country in the ME…
Little ‘hat’ country, that is more corrupt than Ukraine.
Off to Yalta? https://www.reuters.com/article/world/exclusive-wife-of-ukraine-president-elect-got-penthouse-bargain-from-tycoon-idUSKCN1S81TE/
Another option, unless wifey, who bought this property, is leaving her man behind.
PT needs to demand a full and complete audit of all US money sent to Ukraine.
He has the opportunity to PROVE this was primarily a money laundering operation since day one and the icing on the cake is he can possibly get many in DC charged with possible crimes for participating in stealing money from American citizens.
So many in DC are nothing more than frauds.
I’m surprised to not see Lindsay Graham on that list of corrupt politicians.
So was I.
Graham must have other revenue streams from the MIC. Maybe he only needs to vote “yea” when it’s going to be close. Allowing him to vote “no” gives him cover and shores up his conservative bona fides.
I heard he owns a weapons factory.
I don’t know how credible this is but…
“Trump says all documents signed by Biden with autopen are hereby terminated.”
$ 48 billions is gone….to ukr.accounts and likely CONgre$$..how ms.linda pirouette out of this +500 others it’s time to audit…..and smash UNIPARTY ..VSGPDJT …NOW !!!!!!!
There have been several article at Gateway Pundit the last couple of days about this corruption and investigation. Something has changed, probably the word on the ground in Ukraine is so devastating they can’t hide from it any longer. Kiev may soon fall from forces within.
What are some of the mechanism for supporting US Senators?
Is it all Dark Money?
[Sniff… Sniff] Smells like Rome at the fall of the Republic and the rise of Julius Caesar.
Corruption in the senate is nothing new. But the scale is.
the core definition of weaponized law enforcement is when government goes after people they want to “get” with lies and fabricated cases OR when they look the other way in the face of open corruption.
Seems like our government officials are looking the other way on the senate’s activities. Isn’t receiving laundered stolen money a federal crime?
A side point: as much as I dislike Rand Paul, I don’t see him on the yeas list, but I see a bunch of fake MAGA. Maybe Trump is going after the wrong group of squirrels?
Sounds like our president is feeling his Wheaties today. How long till some judge puts a halt to it?
I think this autopen issue will lead to the disqualification of a fair number of judges among other things. And the Judicial system can’t touch this.
MAKE IT SO!!!!!!
Interesting. Theoretically, a brilliant strategy for reversing actions of USA, Inc. which took place by Robinette look-a-likes during CIC DJT’s work during the dash 45-47.
IMO Zelensky is as guilty as any Ukrainian in skimming money from the aid sent to Ukraine. He’s trying to cover his tracks by going after his fellow crooks.
I believe the shift happened in October when a shell company owned by Zelensky put a bid in to buy the $79 million Pathfinder Ranch in Wyoming. The ranch is bigger than the state of Rhode Island. The ranch had sale pending for about two weeks, then was put back up for sale, where it stands today. Such an ostentatious purchase may go over in corrupt countries but such a purchase raises suspicion in the US, especially given who the supposed buyer was.
That’s an interesting tidbit, I hadn’t heard about until you posted it. Everything this scumbag owns that can be seized, should be!
