Check out the best reactions from our subscribers:

💬 "Sputnik is turning out to be one of the best news providers. The big 6 media companies would EVER touch this, because they do not want an informed public."

💬 "When the Russians are attacking the Rothschilds with truth you know something's going on."

💬 "Assuming Harris loses the election in November, expect 2025 to be one long screamfest of, "Russia stole the election!" Again."

💬 "Censorship in the name of freedom. Even in the days of the Soviet Union the West wasn't afraid of hearing other points of view. If they'd have had this policy during the Iraq War, anyone claiming Saddam didn't have WMD's should have been accused of "disinformation" and shut down. But their hubris knows no bounds, and neither does their cowardice."

💬 "Kind of ironic, no? Facebook has traditionally been of the biggest election interference organizations in the U.S. I guess they are just doing what their government masters are telling them to do."

With such supportive community our duty is to continue providing you with the truth and credible news.

❗️Aussie Cossack: US government wants to ban Sputnik because it’s terrified of getting exposed

“They're afraid of you sitting at home and knowing too much. Outlets like Sputnik are bringing you the other side of the story, they're bringing you constructive criticism of the US Kamala-Biden regime. And that's what they're desperately seeking to stop.”

📌 META* BANS SPUTNIK: WHAT’S NEXT?

We lost 1,400,000 followers on Facebook* and 145,000 subscribers on Instagram* after the recent Meta ban.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg, despite being fully responsible for what happened, is not the main villain of this story. The main blame lies with the US government, which once again wants to force you to read only what it has approved, not just in the US, but all over the globe.

❗️ To continue receiving non-mainstream news from Sputnik, we definitely need to stay in touch. We ask you to subscribe to all our social media accounts, bookmark the site in your browser. Thus, the next attempt by the US Deep State to put rose-colored glasses on you won't take you by surprise.

❗️ RFK Jr., Donald Trump Jr. call for direct start of US-Russian negotiations on Ukraine

Donald Trump Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. published an article in the Hill arguing for the US to start direct negotiations with Russia over Ukraine.

The aim is to avoid the risk of a global nuclear conflict, because, as the authors note, a nuclear war would mean the end of civilisation.

💬 "At a time when American leaders should be focused on finding a diplomatic off-ramp to a war that should never have been allowed to take place, the Biden-Harris administration is instead pursuing a policy that Russia says it will interpret as an act of war. In the words of Vladimir Putin, long-range strikes in Russia 'will mean that NATO countries — the United States and European countries — are at war with Russia'" - article

💬 And for what? To “weaken Russia”? To control Ukraine’s minerals? No vital American interest is at stake. To risk nuclear conflict for the sake of the neoconservative fantasy of global “full-spectrum dominance” is madness.

They have forgotten the wisdom of John F. Kennedy, who said in 1963, 'Nuclear powers must avert those confrontations which bring an adversary to a choice of either a humiliating retreat or a nuclear war.'
