A Ukrainian Non-Government Organization (NGO), Texty.org, has compiled a list of U.S. citizens considered enemies of Ukraine, published with accompanying content blaming those U.S. citizens for delays to foreign aid to Ukraine, and even holding them accountable for battlefield losses.
“We’ve identified a broad spectrum of aid opponents, ranging from Trump supporters to communists, and examined their connections. While our research does not cover every public figure opposing aid to Ukraine, it highlights prominent individuals and common arguments that often mirror Kremlin propaganda,” said the NGO.
The list includes 388 individuals and 76 organizations and, although the list includes both conservative and liberal commentators, and numerous Republican legislators, it does not include a single Democrat lawmaker, and criticizes far more conservatives than liberals.
Dan Caldwell, a conservative activist and U.S. House staffer who is listed among Ukraine’s enemies, took to X following the list’s publication to show that the NGO’s founder, Anatoly Bonderanko, worked with the U.S. state Department as a part of the Department of Education and Cultural Affairs TechCamp program.
That means some U.S. taxpayer dollars supported the creation of an enemies list on behalf of a foreign government that included U.S. citizens and American entities.
“So a supposedly ‘independent’ Ukrainian data journalism website just dropped a report smearing American opponents of the Biden admin’s Ukraine policy as Russian propagandists. Not surprisingly, the founder of the website is part of a US State Department journalist program,” said Caldwell on X.
Bonderanko worked with the State Department as a trainer for other foreign journalists, and it is unclear if he remains associated with the U.S. government or continues to receive U.S. tax dollars to support his work.
Although it is unclear if his time with the TechCamp program influenced his list of Ukraine’s enemies, Bonderanko’s list largely encompasses critics of the Biden Administration’s Ukraine policy.
The list includes numerous prominent public figures, including Elon Musk, who provided an internet connection to Ukraine using his Starlink satellites at the start of the war, but who has since become critical of foreign aid being sent to the country.
The enemies list also includes conservative media outlet The Daily Wire, and all of that companies prominent hosts, including Ben Shapiro, who has been a supporter of some level of foreign aid to Ukraine.
Former President Donald Trump, who has promised to facilitate negotiations between Russia and Ukraine and bring an end to the war if he is elected president, also made the list, alongside independent presidential candidate Robert Kennedy Jr., a liberal who has been critical of the Biden Administration’s antagonism towards Russia.
Mainer Tucker Carlson made the list after he went to Moscow to interview Russian President Vladimir Putin, which allegedly led to an attempt on his life by Ukraine.

Numerous NGOs dedicated to peace also made the Ukrainian blacklist.

Too bad most of the media complex are merely lapdogs for the regime or more people would know about this.
It’s just more attempts by the regime to curb our rights.
