Sad Video:
Today, at a concert in support of Putin and the war, everyone who came is fed for free. Putin bought fans for food - buckwheat and sausages

IIRC....When Obama was in Germany for his big ego display...it was one big Octoberfest.
And this is a bad thing because??
This is what will happen in America soon.
Ukraine gives out Hundred Dollar Bills.
Buckwheat is extremely healthy.
And big guy got his 10% during his photo op Ukraine visit.
Haha, so giving out free meals is now a bad thing? Sorry to say but if you watched his speech to the Assembly the other day one thing came across and that is unity. Compare that to the state of the Union (not just for Biden) but it’s a huge scandal if you even clap for something the other guy said. You can definitely argue that it shows more freedom (I don’t make that argument). The U.S is far too divided. I understand that one thing the elites are not divided on is military expenditures for Ukraine (or military adventurism more generally) but they are completely at odds with their constituents on this. It appears that the brand of “Democracy” practiced in the modern Era does little but divide the populous. The divisions could leave you stronger if there comes a time when you take the frank discussions and move forward towards a goal but that isn’t what happens. Those divisions are baked into the bureaucracy and are used to knee cap opposition (see Trump Presidency).
This article is an appeal to ignorance.
You need to take into perspective where it’s from, Newsweek.
This magazine published articles written by one of Mr.Z’s speech writers verbatim and without questioning a word under their brand.
They are lockstep with the globalist/big corporate interests but pretend to be moderate/centrist on the issues in general. What that really means is that they are a great publication if you liked McCain, Bush, Romney... They are establishment and part of that “unity party” (a good label to describe where liberal and conservative interests coincide).
Just google “Newsweek Trump covers”
Then “Newsweek Bush covers”, “Newsweek McCain covers”, “Newsweek Romney covers”
That tells you everything.
Feeding folks at rallies or events is common practice everywhere.
Go to a SPD rally in Germany and you get bratwurst a roll and a beer.
Feeding folks that attend events is about as old as Rome.
But if people don’t know better you can spin this.
It tells you a lot about the journalistic professionalism and credibility of Newsweek, low.
Putin isn’t President because he’s popular with the people.
Four days ago Newsweek said it was $7. Both are ‘telegram posts from independent Russian news source.’
https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4132002/posts
Is it $7? Food? Food and $7? Or is Newsweek just grasping at straws?
You know it’s always a confidence builder when our MSM reports one or more of: ‘experts,’ ‘sources,’ or sketchy online blurbs. Their track record on truth continues to sink.
Alex Jones is “Infowars” but this — both from the Uke and Rus engines — is the opposite. It’s all DisInfowars and, for my part, I trust neither, nor the people who make a ‘hobby’ of repeating and promoting these stories.
No, he’s President because the people respect the position, know it’s not easy, know he’s willing and capable. That seems like a better reason than popularity. Not everyone can have 81 million adoring fans while being the most competent President since Abraham Lincoln
Would be such a shame if there was a gas leak under the stadium and the whole thing went boom.
Russia will be snatching tourists up at the airport and pressing them into military service before long.
