Vladimir Putin has decorated Valery Boyarinev, the deputy director of Russia’s Federal Penitentiary Service (FSIN), with the rank of colonel general. The accolade comes just days after opposition leader Alexey Navalny died in prison.

    They tried to make it look like murder suicide in both cases, but it makes no sense in either case, there are lots of details off (almost to the point that it feels intentional) and the timing is extremely odd.

      Right?

      Not by Putin, but the most brutal I know in the history was for the previous Japanese Emperor in 1948. They executed A-class war criminals (his father’s cronies) on his birthday. The most shocking part imo is that he was only becoming 15.

      Killed acquaintances of a kid on his birthday omg…
