Retired Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, notable for his role in the impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, has issued a cautionary message to Elon Musk following the arrest of Pavel Durov, the CEO of Telegram, in France. Durov was apprehended on Saturday night in Paris due to allegations that he failed to adequately curb criminal activities on his platform, as reported by French media outlets TF1 TV and BFM TV.
The arrest has sparked a debate on free speech, with many in the tech and political spheres expressing concern over the implications for digital rights. Vindman, however, supported the arrest, suggesting on š¯•¸ (formerly Twitter) that there’s an increasing demand for platforms to be accountable for content moderation. He hinted that similar scrutiny could soon be directed at other social media moguls like Musk.
“While Durov holds French citizenship and was arrested for violating French law, this sets a precedent for other social media platforms,” Vindman stated. “There’s a growing intolerance for platforms that allow misinformation and harmful influence, and Musk should be wary.”
While Durov holds French citizenship, is arrested for violating French law, this has broader implications for other social media, including Twitter. Thereā€™s a growing intolerance for platforming disinfo & malign influence & a growing appetite for accountability. Musk should beā€¦ https://t.co/GyPMquKtKV

Musk, on his part, has voiced his concerns over the arrest, labeling the times as “dangerous” due to what he perceives as government overreach into censorship on š¯•¸.

Telegram, boasting over 900 million users, operates similarly to WhatsApp but with features that facilitate communication across large groups, which has unfortunately made it a tool for various criminal and extremist groups, according to The New York Times.
The arrest of Durov has drawn a line in the sand for many. Figures like RFK Jr. and Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski have criticized the French government’s actions as an assault on free speech. Conservative commentator Ian Miles Cheong described the situation as an attempt to control information and stifle dissent.
Despite the backlash, Vindman doubled down on his stance, criticizing “free speech absolutists weirdos” and suggesting that the focus should shift towards more pressing moral issues, indirectly referencing controversies surrounding political figures.
Vindman’s prominence rose during Trump’s impeachment when he, alongside his twin brother Eugene, highlighted concerns over Trump’s communications with Ukraine’s President Zelenskyy, focusing on Hunter Biden’s business activities there. His subsequent retirement from the military and continued public commentary keep him in the spotlight of political and media scrutiny.
Editor’s Commentary:Ā This wasn’t just a warning. This was an implied threat from someone who is very closely embedded in the Deep State and the Globalist Elite Cabal. The Vindman brothers are at least shills if not powerful players behind the scenes.
This tells us with nearly zero doubt that the arrest of Durov was not a one-off event. They’re coming after anyone who represents a threat to their hold on power, which means other tech CEOs, journalists (the good ones, not corporate media hacks), and whistleblowers must be extra diligent about their security. That’s not to say they should live in fear. They need to be prayerful, careful, and mindful about everything going forward. Durov’s arrest represents an escalation in the Deep State’s maneuvers for complete control.

Controlling Protein Is One of the Globalists’ Primary Goals
Between the globalists, corporate interests, and our own government, the food supply is being targeted from multiple angles. It isn’t just silly regulations and misguided subsidies driving natural foods away. Bird flu, sabotaged food processing plants, mysterious deaths of entire cattle herds, arson attacks, and an incessant push to make climate change the primary consideration for all things are combining for a perfect storm to exacerbate the ongoing food crisis.
The primary target is protein. Specifically, they’re going after beef as the environmental boogeyman. They want us eating vegetable-based proteins, lab-grown meat, or even bugs instead of anything that walked the pastures of America. This is why we launched a long-term storage prepper beef company that provides high-quality food that’s shelf-stable for up to 25-years.
At Prepper All-Naturals, we believe Americans should be eating real food today and into the future regardless of what the powers-that-be demand of us. We will never use lab-grown beef. We will never allow our cattle to be injected with mRNA vaccines. We will never bow to the draconian diktats of the climate change cult.
Visit Prepper All-Naturals and use promo code “veterans25” to get 25% off plus free shipping on Ribeye, NY Strip, Tenderloin, and other high-quality cuts of beef. It’s cooked sous vide, then freeze dried and packaged with no other ingredients, just beef. Stock up for the long haul today.
