Threading some highlights.
PUTIN’S “PRINCIPLES”: Navalny delineates Putin’s “principles” would become the basis of the Russian state: 
1/ “Always say one thing and do another. Lying and hypocrisy are the most effective methods of work.”
2/ “Corruption is the foundation of trust. Your main friends are those who have been stealing and cheating with you for many years.”
3/ “And the most important thing: there is never too much money.”
CORRUPTOCRAT: “After becoming head of the FSB, Putin did exactly what he was supposed to do: helped corrupt officials evade responsibility.”
“You want to steal... share with Putin.”
KING PUTIN: Navalny describes “Putin’s Palace” as an “actual separate state within Russia.”
MENTALLY ILL: “Looking inside, you will understand that the president of Russia is mentally ill.”

Fancy toilet paper holders, and fancy cronies.
NO RESUME NECESSARY: “And he once asked me to give a job to a man in St. Petersburg.”
Navalny pleading to stop tolerating officials who steal.

144.4 million people live in Russia. 76 million people have viewed this investigation in four days.
