[REDSTATE] Vladimir Putin ...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances... sat down with NBC News for his first on-camera interview with a western news agency in more than three years.
Putin avoided public commentary during much of the Trump Administration, but less than six months into the Biden Administration he came out swinging at Biden and the US on a host of issues.
Putin spoke for nearly an hour and a half as Biden met with the leaders of the Group of Seven industrialized nations, from which Russia was suspended in 2014 after it annexed the Ukrainian peninsula of Crimea.
This interview was carefully orchestrated by Putin to follow along after Biden’s disastrous public appearances at the G7 and NATO ...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions... Summits. Putin was not going to allow any demonstration of "unity" coming out of Biden’s first foreign trip to be the only press story ahead of his meetings with Biden.
For the most part defiant, and in some instances just plain trolling the Biden Administration, Putin showed the citizens of this country, using NBC News, why it is he’s going to wipe the floor with addle-minded Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Old, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?... as long as he remains in the White House.
"Did you order the liquidation of the woman who walked into the Congress and who was shot and killed by a policeman?" Mr Putin said, referring to Ashli Babbitt, a Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, woman who died during the riot after being shot by a member of US Capitol Police, who was cleared of wrongdoing in her death.
"Do you know that 450 individuals were arrested after entering the Congress? And they didn’t go there to steal a laptop. They came with political demands," said Mr Putin.
The US, he reasoned, was guilty of the same intolerance for political dissent as his government has been accused of harbouring.

Whoa! Pretty harsh dressing down -- especially from an ex-Soviet sovok.
My god but our leaders are pathetic. Poutine for Putin

Liquidation is a Rantburg auto-substitution for assassination. The underlines don't show up on mobile. You can't see what word was substituted, because that requires a mouseover, and a mobile phone has no idea what a mouseover event is because it has no concept of a mouse. Rantburg is an ancient site that was never updated for mobile devices, which are what more than half all page views are today.

^ and you pay how much to use this site? Fred occasionally asks via bleg for $ to keep it running. Asking for a specific mobile version is not very gracious

Actually liquidation is a deliciously ironic term to anyone familiar with the history of Stalinist Russia.
Putin is IIUC a master of judo. He excels at putting his dumb opponents on the back foot.
He knows Biden is a moron who also suffers from dementia as well as incurable, absurdly high self-regard.

You might be surprised to learn how little is deleted or blocked here Spoter. Think of it as a Greyhound blog. Enjoy the view and 'leave the driving to us.'

I personally think America needs more liquidations. And we need different people than we have now as the liquidators and the liquidatees...

The FBI planned and coordinated the 1/6 capital attack. Poorly. The capital hitmen as Piglosi's body guards, under her supervision were to be the firewall if things the FBI were agitating got "out of hand". Problem is the capital police are too stupid to know not to shoot an unarmed female veteran carrying an American flag during his Fraudulency's certification by Piglosi.

Most likely. I do feel like we are being led to be totally not surprised about the shooter. Most likely a Have You Stopped Beating Your Wife? question. Still..
Puts on hat
Wouldn't be a thing, if the seized phone data by the DOJ ended up in Moscow, and this is an accurate translation.
Takes hat off.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
