It saddens me beyond words to hear this.

In a World of PROPAGANDA, the TRUTH is Always a CONSPIRACY.

Gonzalo Lira shared the truth. May he rest in peace.

Torture is ostensibly used to extract information from its victim. This was just pure, institutionalized evil. Yet, here in the US, the blue and yellow flags continue to fly.

Wow. Just wow. Evil is real and lives among us.

In a normal world, this would be considered an international incident worthy of severe sanctions; sadly, we don't live in that world any more.

This is the first I've heard of it. Do I hold Ukraine responsible for Lira's death?

NO, I hold the US Government responsible. They based their deep state operations there. Their money laundering and child and human trafficking there. Their weapons labs there. They are an enemy of the American people, and Russia.

And when Russia defended itself from the US DoD bioweapons labs and nazis, the corrupt US Congress gave the nazi regime in Ukraine BILLIONS OF OUR MONEY, STOLEN FROM THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

The CIA and the US deep state and corrupt illegitimate Obiden regime ARE RESPONSIBLE. They are enemies of freedom and truth worldwide.

He was most definitely tortured and also robbed of $75,000 during his previous imprisonment months before. He had some health issues and predicted he would die if reincarcerated according to some of his last videos.😢

Lira's father is exactly right: our senile President was not just concurring, but complicit. We truly are living in a police state.

This is very dark and beyond sad. I must admit, however, that I suspected this story would end in such an outcome, especially based on what Gonzalo reported after his first stay in Ukrainian custody.

So it seems the US government is both willing and able to gain the release of prisoners from within Russia, even when such prisoners are known for publicly voicing anti-American sentiments, but for those imprisoned by our "ally" Ukraine, I guess not? Too bad poor Gonzalo didn't play for the WNBA instead of speaking out against the regime...

Yup.

Step by step the communists kill off the TRUTH TELLERS.

Then dissidents, then lesser dissidents all the way down to you useful idiots.

per George Webb: 'Gonzalo has passed. I was heading into Ukraine last year to get him when he was released. Very sad.... "[a while ago] his father, Gonzalo Lira, Sr. had reported that Gonzalo Lira was very, very sick with double pneumonia and still in prison...." - https://twitter.com/RealGeorgeWebb1/status/1745886319941656876
