Alexei Navalny dies in prison

Navalny dead

Only 47. Awful news.

TBH, I'm shocked he was able to stay away from windows for this long.

 

[eelw]

Still wonder why he returned to Russia. Like being a martyr vs actively fighting against Putin from the outside until he can stop him. I’m surprised he lasted this long with the mistreatment he got in jail though.

Three years of torture.
Russia was glad to prolong it that long.

On the notion of Democracy and Human Rights.
Russia is just a larger North Korea these days.

The west has long threatened consequences if he was killed in prison. They should follow through.

Edit:

How bout no?

In principle, I agree completely.

The question is "HOW"?

Man @raildogg Russia seems like it’s making great democratic strides.

Another remote chance of a peaceful Ruzzia gone .

Double the Ukraine arms money in the supplemental and pass it.

This is a cancer. What we do with cancer? Radiation therapy.

Hard no.

Double the Ukraine arms money in the supplemental and pass it.

I'm not sure that's a realistic option given the current congress.

Personally, if I were Dark Brandon, I'd find a way to do an "end around" and give them long range weapon systems and air power. Whatever they want within reason.

Enough Rs have to get frustrated with the Speaker to either make him put the Senate bill on the floor or sign a discharge petition. There are signs this is occurring.

Meanwhile a few hundred expired ATACMS and a couple hundred thousand DPICM rounds would be a nice gesture from the WH.

Ship them for free to Ukraine for "recycling".

SO EASY to judge and make assumptions... I was thinking something akin to, maybe, karma served up a little polonium-210?

It would be cheaper than dismantling and disposing of them. Fiscal conservatives should love it.

Julia Navalny, wife of Alexei Navalny speaks out on her husband's reported death at the Munich Security Conference. Dozens of world leaders are gathering for the Munich Security Conference, in the German city.

That would be nice. But I'm not holding my breath. I just have a feeling they will go to extreme lengths to not allow any "progress" in order to prevent another motion to vacate. They don't want ANYTHING done between now and November.

Those weapons would be great. I was thinking Tomahawks as well. Just for shits and giggles.

In the real world, so true. In the MAGAt world, they will mess around with that fact and turn it into a reason why they're victims of it and just who victimized them.

My apologies . I thought you meant nukes .

How will Republicans respond? My guess...

They will try to ignore it.
Blame Navalny
Try to deny they are pro Putin

It's worse than I thought. Right wingers still have gall a plenty

Republican compares Trump to Navalny Democrats want him to die "in prison"

Republican Lee Zeldin warned that Democrats were doing "Biden's bidding" and trying to take down Donald Trump.

Like what do people want Biden to do??? He can’t drop a nuke on the Kremlin. He can’t force Netanyahu into a ceasefire. He can’t close the southern border.
