A smoldering scandal, a top aide’s sudden fall, and wartime contracts dripping with mystery.

🕵️‍♂️ Raids, Resignations & Really Convenient Amnesia

Millions of dollars. Defense procurement. Shadowy energy deals. Welcome to the latest episode of “Who Wants to Be a Billionaire in Wartime?” — a show where political operatives go from “trusted aides” to “resigned liabilities” faster than you can say “embezzled.”

The resignation of Andriy Yermak — conveniently timed with sweeping raids — has the subtlety of a fireworks display in a blackout. Sure, there’s no proof yet he lined his pockets with war-time gold, but come on. The optics? Rotting. The timing? Suspicious. The pattern? Textbook.

Ukraine’s corruption clean-up tour is starting to feel more like a PR detox than a real purge. Every time an investigation “surfaces,” it’s followed by a flurry of denials, a couple of convenient scapegoats, and the same recycled promise: “We’re taking this very seriously.” Right. Just not seriously enough to indict anyone wearing a tie above a certain price point.

But we’re told not to jump to conclusions. Why? Because there’s “no public proof.” Ah yes, the sacred bureaucratic shield. As if evidence ever lands on a gilded platter when you’re dealing with elites who write the laws and the contracts.

The war is real. The suffering is real. But so is the very real possibility that some people at the top looked at the chaos and saw a business opportunity. That’s not just corruption — it’s capitalism with bloodstains.
