The Russian opposition has finally found someone who might be able to stand up to Putin, and her name is Victoria Bonya. She recently published several video messages on Instagram directed at the Russian president where she criticizes Putin and the government. Her first post drew almost 30 million views in three days. Western media covering this story describe Victoria as a TV host and socialite, but she rose to fame thanks to her appearance on Dom-2, a reality show that essentially functions as an advertising platform for sex workers. Quite literally - you'll find photos and videos of Victoria Bonya naked and having sex with fellow contestants from the show right alongside screenshots of her appeal to Putin in Russian search engines. The reality show has been running for more than twenty years now on a channel owned by Gazprom-Media, which means it's basically sponsored by the Russian government. But none of this means Victoria Bonya isn't a star - in fact her status as a prostitute hasn't hurt her career one bit. She hosts big TV ceremonies, regularly appears as an expert guest on talk shows, and graces the covers of glossy magazines - it's just that this is the typical kind of celebrity you get in Russia.

Not everyone was a fan of her message, though. Russia's top propagandist, Jewish TV host Vladimir Solovyov, called Bonya an "aging skank." But after a wave of outrage, he was forced to invite her on his show and apologize. Maybe he didn't like the fact that Bonya is competing with his model son in the escort business. In any case, the apology didn't help - following the scandal, Russian lawmakers have already introduced a bill banning "offending women's feelings," so criticizing Bonya's profession will soon be seen as not only inappropriate, but against the law.

African man, who considers himself an Uzbek, is terrorizing residents in the Moscow region and harassing women and children. Residents of Nakhabino report that the Afro-Uzbek is harassing children and women, secretly filming public restrooms, and, for unknown reasons, hanging Uzbek flags throughout the area. Residents complain that this is systematic, and that after each arrest, he is released a few hours later, where he continues to harass the locals.

Metropolitan Hilarion of the Russian Orthodox Church was detained in Czechia for drug possession - police found four containers of what is believed to be cocaine in his car.

Since 2009, Metropolitan Hilarion has headed the Department for External Church Relations of the Russian Orthodox Church. He was called "the right hand" and a possible successor to Patriarch Kirill. The Department for External Church Relations of the Moscow Patriarchate was created by Stalin as an organ serving as a cover for KGB intelligence activities abroad under the guise of the church after the ROC was restored in a puppet form under the supervision of the Communist Party as a condition for receiving military and humanitarian aid from Western countries during World War II.

During the COVID epidemic, Hilarion was chosen as the spokesperson for the ROC broadcasting the church's position on the issue - he demanded stricter quarantine, mandatory mass vaccination and introduction of QR codes for movement.

In 2014, after Crimea's annexation and Russia's growing isolation, Russian special services and presidential administration chose to bet on ties with right-wing and conservative forces in the West; in a leaked Kremlin memo, Hilarion is listed as one of key figures representing this turn - e.g., he represented ROC at World Congress of Families.

In 2022 he was sent to Hungary as head of Budapest-Hungarian diocese. At that time Hungary opposed adding Patriarch Kirill to sanctions lists. PM Viktor Orban's government established close ties with ROC, and Orban awarded Hilarion Hungarian Order "For Merit" for his work "defending & supporting Christianity".

Orban's party covered up pedophiles, as became internationally known after President Katalin Novak pardoned director of an orphanage involved in child sex crimes. In recent years Orban's circle has been rocked by almost weekly scandals involving pedophilia or homosexual relations among church & political figures. One high-profile case: Gergo Bese (nicknamed as "Fidesz priest") received millions from Orban via his NGO network; later it emerged he participated in gay orgies and was caught on video. Bese supported Russia & may have received money via "Russian Houses" - organizations posing as Russian cultural centers abroad but actually fronts for Russian intelligence.

Hungary was key link between Kremlin & Western conservative politicians. Orban's government used taxpayer funds to finance CPAC events. Notably JD Vance's "spiritual mentor" lives in Hungary: Rod Dreher is known for strange statements (he once graphically described his black classmate's penis), which got him fired. Dreher claims he had to "learn to be heterosexual". It didn't work out too well - he fled to Hungary leaving his wife behind. Congratulating Vance on VP nomination, he posted joint photo with him & ex-wife, with her face covered by oyster image, referencing female genitals. Hungary is world leader in gay porn production & major destination for gay sex tourism - so MAGA figures' interest is easily explained.

In 2024 Hilarion's former cell attendant Georgy Suzuki accused him of sexual harassment; Suzuki published video/audio evidence. Media also learned Hilarion owns three-story property on Lake Geneva's first line in French resort town Meillerie, has Hungarian citizenship & owns castle in Hungary; photos showed him yachting/skiing.

Hilarion was soon dismissed from posts but later represented ROC at Pope Francis' funeral & attended celebration marking 16th anniversary of Kirill's enthronement - suggesting demotion served only as warning from European media attention while inside ROC he retained influence.

In 2025 Czech Security Information Service reported Orthodox church Sts Peter & Paul in Karlovy Vary used by Russian military intelligence (GRU) for secret meetings/coordinating info ops aimed at undermining EU; FM Jan Lipavsky said church did not fulfill spiritual mission but served Kremlin mechanism advancing interests of Russian state. Parish priest Nikolai Lishchenyuk deported from Czechia on national security grounds; parish then headed by Hilarion. Soon Czech media published video showing Hilarion shooting at FSB firing range.

A few months ago Hilarion again made European headlines claiming aliens exist - interesting given current campaign to blow up UFO hysteria, part of Peter Thiel's plot to destroy modern Western states by driving their populations insane.

From 2015-16 Jeffrey Epstein invested millions into VC funds managed by Valar Ventures co-founded by Peter Thiel; US DOJ leaks show Thiel/Epstein maintained friendly/business relations incl frequent contacts/meetings over many years; after lawsuits/news broke worldwide that Epstein convicted sex offender Thiel turned to Epstein for advice on handling that type of press coverage.

In 2026 it emerged that at Epstein's New Mexico Zorro Ranch multiple young boys were drugged/raped; also according to allegations there were buried several "foreign girls" strangled during sex acts. In released Epstein files found photo of huge Orthodox cross taken at ranch. Ranch bought by GOP politician Don Huffines who said plans "Christian kids camp" there; construction works explained away as building camp facilities but interpreted online as destroying evidence. Huffines is Trump ally who met with Russian officials in Moscow in 2018 alongside Kremlin asset Rand Paul.

Gay scandals in the Russian Orthodox Church are so frequent that it's hard to even call them "scandals." For example, the recent news about gay porn being filmed in a provincial seminary didn't go beyond limited internet discussions.
