The Turkish opposition has given the country's leader a cold shower, telling President Erdogan to heat his palace with dung instead of gas after he stated that Turkish people are used to suffering and can do without Russian supplies.

I saw the headline and couldn’t resist.
The way Glorious Leader wants to destroy America’s energy resources perhaps he should do the same to heat the White House.
RT [Russia Today] has been called a propaganda outlet for the Russian government[10][11][12] and its foreign policy[10][11][13][14] by former Russian officials[15] and by news reporters,[16] including former RT reporters.[17][18][19]
It has also been accused of spreading disinformation.[20][21][22]
The United Kingdom media regulator Ofcom has threatened RT with sanctions because of repeated violations of its rules on impartiality.[23]
The network states that it offers a 'Russian perspective' on global events.[24]"

Vladimir Putin's media Svengali who was found dead in DC hotel was 'murdered for being an FBI informant'
"Nicknamed the 'Bulldozer', Lesin was one of the key props of the Putin presidency, personally masterminding a wide-ranging media crackdown which has left the vast majority of Russian TV stations and newspapers obedient to the Kremlin."

Now that is some catchy headline writing.
I suspected there might be a statistically high number of maybe ten+ journalism workers who were killed during the last ten+ years in Russia.
However there appear to be dozens upon dozens on list covering the last 21 years.
Staggering brutality.
As bad as things are here concerning corruption and collusion of MSM - Gov’t, we have it made compared to Russia.
Let them burn dung.
How? Please explain how?
Erdogan’s win in Turkey was a surprise. Turkey has taken 10 steps back with this idiot...and someone said his son is even worse.
You forgot to indicate you were being sarcastic in your response, or you’re kidding, right?
In Russia you have no protected right to assemble and protest, express negative opinions of their single party rule gov’t, ie: Putin, your property and life can be taken away on a whim by corrupt politicians, and their justice system’s “due process” often provides neither.
Putin has clearly stated (after he looted Russia of 50 Billion for himself) he now views individual wealth as a illusion, just as a chicken believes the egg it sits on, belongs to it.
We are becoming like Russia, ie: corrupt state persecuting the individual.
However, we are not quite there, and still have a constitution.
If just 1% of 330 Million citizens rose up out of apathy, and made things very uncomfortable for politicians, we could expose and change their corrupt behavior with non-violent civil disobedience.
Just as in previous decades.
However, conservatives are that in behavior, which when it comes to affecting change, further works against us.
Last chance to March on DC coming soon.
