The deputy chief of Russia's National Guard, Roman Gavrilov, has been sacked.

It's a bigger deal than it sounds, because in Russia "National Guard" has a very different meaning than in America.

It's an elite internal military force that reports directly to President Putin. pic.twitter.com/0P4QqIf6kC

The morons are out of coverstories and since they are losing the conflíct in Ukraine they now want to do a backflip to bring back "the pandemic" again, but nothing will work, nothing will cover up the western Central banking cartels criminal conduct. So they said they will [bring down the financial system by] raise of rates to combat inflation they claimed doesn't exist, or is at least "transitory" at best. Meanwhile the no-more-nonsense world is establishing a new financial system outside and independent from the Western Central banking cartel, by eliminating the US Dollar from their trade.. and while they try to pin blame on Putin and Covid, everybody starts to see that it was THEIR BAD POLICY that destroyed the Wests sound and stable economic system, and now that it's clear that WEF's "great reset" will not happen, at best it will be known as the "WESTERN FASCIST RESET".. so it's best not to interfere in the process of an enemy [of mankind] destroying themselves...

They thought they had 10 years or so to boil us like frogs in a cooking pan, but now we will "own nothing and be very very angry and pissed off".. the babyboomers are not the kind of people that enjoy REAL poverty, they are the most spoiled of all generations, they want their fucking ship criuses, three holidays a year, their fucking SUV's and so on... and in general the US and EU nations are worldchampions of virtue signaling without any real virtues activities.. Neither Putin or Covid is going to explain away of how their retirement money just evaporated after they paid for it decades ago, or why their health care turned 3rd world standard over night.. my neighbor for instance just got diagnosed with Epstein Barr  Syndrome, got told waiting list is at least one year, ONE YEAR.. in Berlin, Germany. Too bad he doesn't selfidentify as "long Covid", he'd be pushed up the waiting list significantly, anyone who self-identifies as having [had] Covid is 100% prefered, because it's where the money is at in this sorry state of western world corruption reality.
