#Russia's state TV shows a clip of an opposition activist abroad discussing protests & the possibility of Russia falling apart in the future. Host and experts cry out: "He is advocating the overthrow of the gov’t!" "Treason! Give him 20 yrs in prison!" "Jail him for those words!"
RT’s Margarita Simonyan derides Russian opposition activist, exclaiming: “Who is that fat-faced guy? That freak should have no freedom, no citizenship—nothing!" "Before he loses weight in prison, I want him to worry every night about which countries his plane is flying over!”
RT’s Margarita Simonyan: “Bastards like that [opposition activist] or like #Protasevich should be taken off planes, or—like our boss [Putin] said—wiped out in the outhouse. No big deal... I’m all for that.”
Russian state TV host Vladimir Soloviev asks: “What if we funded QAnon and hosted their forums right here in Moscow?” RT’s Editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan chimes in: “We should be doing that. It’s a pity we aren’t doing it already.”

The Trump admin bought ventilators from Russia, but our hospitals can't use them since the same make/model was linked to two hospital fires in Russia. Now we're donating 200 U.S.-made ventilators to Russia and paying all costs, including delivery expenses (roughly $4.7 million).

"When the President was going to meet Putin... the Ukrainians asked us in strong terms, if the President is going to meet him, could he at least please raise the issue of our detained crew members who remained in Russian captivity at that time?... I'm not sure if he did or not."

Trump says transcript of second Ukraine call will "probably" be released Tuesday

cbsn.ws/32quD60
Trump wants to release the first call only because—unlike the second call—it doesn't contain anything incriminating, according to Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman. It's a distraction.
Why the change in tone? What happened in between the first and the second call with Zelenskyy? In early May, during a phone call, Putin “did what he always does” in seeking to undercut the United States’ relationship with Ukraine. Also, Trump spoke to Putin at the #G20 in June.

Have you ever heard Trump complain about any OTHER case of alleged corruption in #Ukraine, except for the Bidens? Look at his own statements, Tweets and videos. The message is clear and the squeeze was applied in perfect concert.
In May, Rob Portman met with the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy and mentioned “fighting corruption.” He said Zelenskyy understands it is “frankly a linchpin of the U.S. partnership with Ukraine, and as a matter of law, a condition of our future defense assistance.”
