Be careful what you wish for in #Russia? Russian commission says @navalny requested painkiller injections in prison, after an open letter from Russian doctors asked for medical assistance for his severe back & leg pain. But Navalny's lawyers don't seem to know of the request.
@navalny Maybe I'm too cynical. But I worry about Navalny getting injections in a Russian prison. What a convenient way to harm him. Putin is a killer after all. And Navalny wouldn't be in prison if he wasn't a serious threat to Putin. Navalny should have his doctor administer injections.
@navalny I mean, Putin already had a death squad smear a chemical weapon on Navalny's underpants while the guy was traveling. Now he's a sitting duck. Why wouldn't killer Putin use Navalny's back pain as an opportunity to kill him in prison? Want more than ibuprofen? Sure thing, Alexey.😨 Image
@navalny I hope I'm wrong. I hope #Navalny gets injections or whatever pain relief he needs. But after 2 assassination attempts by a Putin kill team, there's no trusting Russian officials. A 2nd Siberian doctor who treated him is dead. Navalny's health argues for release ASAP #FreeNavalny

💥Dominion Voting Systems Files Defamation Suit v. FOXNEWS, accused of pushing disinformation & lies for profit

"Fox took a small flame and turned it into a forest fire… sold a false story of election fraud in order to serve its own commercial purposes" cnn.com/2021/03/26/med…
“As the dominant media company among those viewers dissatisfied with the election results, Fox gave these fictions a prominence they otherwise would never have achieved.”

Voting-Machine Company Dominion Sues Fox News Over Election Claims wsj.com/articles/votin…
When does Dominion sue Trump? He tweeted lies about its voting machines 34 times. The 1st: 186K retweets. Altogether ~1.4 MILLION RTs. Trump lies were integral to FoxNews lies, together creating a firehose of disinformation so toxic, radicalized terrorists attacked US Capitol.

US Army reservist arrested in Jan.6 Capitol attack was a known white supremacist. Coworkers said Timothy Hale-Cusanelli of Colts Neck NJ was a Nazi sympathizer and even grew a “Hitler mustache” while working as a Navy contractor with security clearance. washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/03…
US Army reservist was so openly racist about killing Jewish, Black & disabled people, coworkers were afraid to report him. Arguably worse: His supervisor said he knew Hale-Cusanelli was a Nazi sympathizer & Holocaust denier but didn’t mention it b/c he wasn’t personally offended. Image
😳Neo-Nazi Capitol rioter & Army reservist Hale-Cusanelli told ppl
◾️Hitler should’ve finished the job
◾️Babies born w/ disabilities should be shot
◾️He’d’ve killed all the Jews & eat them for breakfast lunch & dinner—w/o seasoning b/c the salt from their tears would be flavorful Image

🚨Kremlin crackdown Saturday: Police in Moscow Raid Pro-Democracy Forum, arrest over 180 people from across #Russia, including elected officials, activists & journalists. Among them @vkaramurza, victim of 2 assassination attempts per @bellingcat voanews.com/europe/police-…
@vkaramurza @bellingcat #Russia: “I've never seen a whole conference arrested… Kafka would probably envy what’s happening in our country. He couldn’t possibly have had enough imagination,” opposition politician Vladimir Kara-Murza said of today's raid on a pro-democracy educational forum in Moscow.
@vkaramurza @bellingcat #Russia|n authorities can't get their pretexts straight. First they said they raided the pro-#democracy Independent Deputies Forum b/c "undesirable" NGO Open Russia sponsored it.

TASS however reported police accused participants of violating COVID restrictions, apparently false.

UN Human Rights Experts Demand Immediate Release of #Navalny From Russian Penal Colony, Urge Global Probe of Poisoning
via ⁦@MoscowTimesthemoscowtimes.com/2021/03/01/un-…
"Novichok was precisely chosen to cause fear…a sinister warning” that any Kremlin critic would suffer same fate as #Navalny.

UN #HumanRights experts sent #Russia a letter last December detailing evidence of 🇷🇺govt officials’ involvement in poisoning. Kremlin never responded. Image
“Given the inadequate response,…use of prohibited chemical weapons,…pattern of attempted targeted killings,” UN human rights experts call an international investigation into #Navalny poisoning a “matter of urgency.”

“Critical” now b/c he’s in prison under #Russia’s control. Image

I've heard a lot of gaslighting, but @RonJohnsonWI calling Trump supporters—coming from a Trump rally—"Jovial, friendly and earnest" takes the cake.
@RonJohnsonWI GOP Senators complicit in a TERRORIST attack on the US Capitol by PARAMILITARY EXTREMISTS to keep Trump in power are today whitewashing, gaslighting, deflecting their own complicity. They have no business overseeing any investigation into a deadly insurrection they helped incite.
@RonJohnsonWI I don't know if Ron Johnson is Russian asset, but he's surely Putin's favorite Senator. His history of advancing Russian disinformation & conspiracy theories is long. Seems noticeably worse after GOP Senators' 2018 July 4th trip to Russia, after which he urged lifting sanctions.

Paramilitary Oath Keeper indicted in Jan.6 conspiracy says she was providing security to Trump rally speakers—and legislators—marching to Capitol. Says she met w/ Secret Service, given VIP rally pass.

Getting closer to Roger Stone. He was fundraising for security for Jan 5-6.
🤯This is the coup Trump plotted, getting paramilitaries to storm US Capitol. Indicted Watkins said the OathKeepers wore military gear on Jan. 6 expecting to "have a role" when Trump invoked the Insurrection Act to use the military to overturn the election.cnn.com/2021/02/21/pol…
Watkins' defense basically says she wasn't overthrowing the govt b/c Trump was POTUS & he ordered it. She thought she was doing her duty. But she was just one of Trump's "suckers & losers," manipulated by a conman to betray her country. She should be furious. He ruined her life.
