Putin Critic, Russian Opposition Leader Alexi Navalny Dies in Prison

Oliver JJ Lane 16 Feb 2024

The Russian prison service has said Alexi Navalny “fainted and died quickly”, the death of the political prisoner, opposition leader, and critic of the Russian President already being called a “political assassination”.

Anti-corruption campaigner and opposition party leader Alexi Navalny, who had previously survived a poisoning attempt by the infamous Russian nerve agent Novichok in 2020 and who has spent years in prison, has died, Russia says. A press release from a Russian state media outlet states President Putin has been informed of the death, which is said to have happened today.

At the time of his death, Navalny was serving a 19-year prison sentence at an Arctic penal colony. Navalny had been branded a “terrorist and extremist” by the Russian government and convicted of several crimes, which he maintained were hollow and politically motivated.

Britain’s The Guardian notes his death “is likely to be seen as a political assassination attributable to Vladimir Putin”.

Biden’s admin has indicted the leader of the political opposition on bogus charges. They want to to lock him up before the election.

They said nothing when Zelensky locked up a US citizen who died in prison. They have zero moral standing today to say anything about Navalny.

Here's what I referenced above:

American Journalist Dead in Ukraine After Criticizing Biden and Zelenskyy Regimes
Story by Claire O'Hare
State of the Union via MSN

American journalist Gonzalo Lira died in a Ukrainian prison after being imprisoned for criticizing the Zelensky and Biden governments.

Lira, who regularly posted reports and opinions about the war with Russia and the nature of the Ukrainian government, was initially arrested and later tried to flee the country, but was arrested again. ...
Criticizing the ruler, whether Putin, Biden or any other equally wicked person, is a risky move for a journalist.

Well, Lira did a LOT more than simply criticize Zelensky and the Ukrainian government.  He got caught feeding intelligence info to the Russians, and doxxed members of not only the Ukrainian military but also other members of the press so that they could be targeted and killed.  He then got picked up when he got caught trying skip bail.

So there is no "what about" here.  Navalny was a real political prisoner, in the usual historic sense, in that Putin not only tried to poison and kill him once before, but then locked him up for years, sent him to the Arctic when that didn't work either, and now has obviously ordered his murder to remove him as a threat to his regime.

Alexei Navalny, the man Joe Biden and the left are praising so dearly, was a part of the Russian Imperial Movement, a Nazi organization that has been banned inside Russia. The left is now hailing Alexei Navalny as a hero of democracy and freedom, and a courageous man who fought for 'good.'

The left have very strange choices of heroes.

That's a bunch of nonsense, propagated by the Kremlin.

Alexei Navalny never wanted Joe Biden to drop the Trump sanctions on Putin’s Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

He knew it would embolden Putin. And it did.

The Democrat Senators who voted to drop the sanctions at the request of Chancellor Merkel made a strategic mistake.

There should be more media attention on this moment which helped start the war in Ukraine.

Joe Biden hasn’t even spoken to Vladimir Putin in over 2 years.

TWO YEARS.

The idea that he has even tried to pressure Putin on Navalny or @evangershkovich
 is laughable.

Tucker Carlson turns on Putin after Alexei Navalny's death in jail: 'It's horrifying, barbaric and awful - no decent person would defend it'

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13092023/amp/tucker-carlson-putin-navalny-death-russia-grocery.html

Quote
Tucker Carlson has turned on Vladimir Putin in the wake of the shocking death of Alexei Navalny, just days after releasing a softball interview with the Russian president and a series of 'tourism board style' videos about the country's clean train stations and cheap groceries.

In an exclusive statement to DailyMail.com, Carlson said: 'It's horrifying what happened to Navalny.

'The whole thing is barbaric and awful. No decent person would defend it.'

It remains unclear whether the former Fox News host is still in Moscow.

I'm simply reporting; you decide.

Nothing to see here. Just an undercover video of Alexei Navalny asking MI6 Officer James William Thomas Ford for $10-20 Million/yr to start a color revolution in Russia.

Alexei Navalny's wife has a message for Putin following news of husband's death

The wife of Alexei Navalny vowed on Friday that Russian President Vladimir Putin, his allies and the Kremlin "will have to pay" following reports that her husband – a prominent opposition leader – collapsed and died in custody at a penal colony in Siberia.

Yulia Navalnaya, speaking at the Munich Security Conference, while Vice President Kamala Harris and Secretary of State Antony Blinken were also in attendance, said, "If this is true, I want Putin and his entire surrounding, Putin’s friends, his government know – that they will have to pay for what they’ve done with our country, with my family, and my husband.

"And that day will come very soon," she declared.

"I want to call on entire world community, everyone present here, people all over the world – we shall all together defeat this devil, defeat the catastrophic regime that is currently in Russia," she continued. "This regime and Vladimir Putin must be held accountable for all the horrors they are doing to my country, to our country – to Russia." .............
