**🔥 UKRAINE ERUPTS: NATIONWIDE PROTESTS AS ZELENSKY GUTS ANTI-CORRUPTION AGENCIES**  
*"We are not fools!" – Thousands defy martial law to defend last bastion against state corruption*  

### ⚖️ **THE "MIDNIGHT LAW" THAT KILLED INDEPENDENT JUSTICE**  
X. **Rapid Vote in Parliament**: On July 22, 2025, Ukraine’s Parliament passed **Bill 12414** with **263 votes in favor** (only XX against), placing NABU (National Anti-Corruption Bureau) and SAPO (Special Anti-Corruption Prosecutor’s Office) under direct control of Zelensky’s handpicked Prosecutor General, Ruslan Kravchenko .  
X. **Alarming Powers**: The law allows authorities to:  
   - Terminate investigations targeting allies.  
   - Illegally access classified anti-corruption files.  
   - Strip immunity from NABU investigators .  
X. **Smokescreen Justification**: The SBU (security service) raided NABU offices claiming "Russian infiltration," arresting staff over **minor traffic violations from 2018**. Transparency International called it **"political pressure disguised as national security"** .  

### 📢 **PROTESTS: FROM KYIV TO ODESSA, A NATION REVOLTS**  
- **Kyiv (Maidan Nezalezhnosti)**: **10,000+ protesters** chant *"Ya zh ne lokh!"* ("I’m not a fool!"), Zelensky’s 2019 anti-corruption slogan turned against him. **Vitali Klitschko** (Mayor) joined crowds: *"This law buries the Revolution of Dignity!"* .  
- **Lviv**: Effigies of Zelensky burned near Opera House. Posters read **"Fuck Yermak"** (Head of Presidential Office) .  
- **Odesa**: Clashes with riot police, **40 injured**. In **Dnipro**, workers and soldiers’ mothers march with banners: *"Our sons die at front while thieves steal in Kyiv"* .  

### ⚔️ **WHO’S PROTESTING? THE SOUL OF MAIDAN RETURNS**  
| Group | Role | Symbolic Action |  
|-------|------|-----------------|  
| **Euromaidan veterans** | Backbone of 2014 revolution | Guarding NABU buildings |  
| **AutoMaidan activists** | Blocked Yanukovych in 2014 | Burning "Zelensky = Yanukovych" posters |  
| **NABU founders** | Created with Western support | **Vitaliy Shabunin** arrested July XX |  

### 💰 **THE CHERNYSHOV CASE: ZELENSKY’S UNTOUCHABLE GODFATHER**  
- **Aleksey Chernyshov**, oligarch and Zelensky’s godfather, was under NABU investigation for:  
  - **Opaque energy tenders** during war ($500M damages).  
  - **Bribes** for importing generators from Turkey .  
- **Bill 12414 halts probes** against Chernyshov, now Economy Minister .  

### 🌍 **GLOBAL FALLOUT: WESTERN AID AT RISK**  
- **EU**: *"No independent NABU = No €50B aid"* – Katarina Maternova, EU Ambassador to Kyiv .  
- **G7**: *"Deep concern"* over arbitrary arrests, threatens military aid reduction .  
- **USA**: Halted additional **HIMARS shipments**, calling the law *"Putin’s victory"* .  

### 🕵️ **WHY IS POLICE STANDING DOWN?**  
Despite martial law (bans gatherings), police remain **invisible or passive**:  
X. **Fear of civil war**: Veterans warned they’ll defend NABU "with rifles if needed" .  
X. **Collapsing morale**: XX% officers refuse orders per internal poll .  
X. **Zelensky’s dilemma**: Crackdown would doom EU membership hopes .  

### ⚠️ **FOUR POSSIBLE ENDGAMES**  
X. **ZELENSKY BACKTRACKS** (20%):  
   - Vetoes law, replaces Prosecutor General.  
   - *Risk*: Loses pro-Russian parliamentary allies.  
X. **REVOLUTION 2.0** (55%):  
   - Nationwide strikes, army defections in Dnipro.  
   - *Trigger*: New Chernyshov corruption leaks.  
X. **WESTERN COUP** (15%):  
   - CIA/G7 pressure forces Zelensky’s resignation.  
X. **PUTIN’S VICTORY** (10%):  
   - Chaos allows Russian breakthrough in Donbas.  

> **EDITOR’S NOTE**: *"A leader elected to fight corruption becoming its symbol is the ultimate betrayal. Zelensky is burying Maidan with his own hands – while police look away and the West eyes its funds."*  

**#SaveNABU #UkraineRevolution #ZelenskyBetrayal**  
👉 **PS**: *Share if you believe fighting corruption IS fighting for Ukraine’s survival. The frontlines aren’t just in Donbas – they’re on Maidan.* ⚖️💥
