Kazakhstan’s government resigned on Wednesday as demonstrators set fire to the capital in protest of rising fuel prices and the political hold of former President Nursultan Nazarbayev.

Videos throughout the country showed protesters yelling "Old man, go away!,” and gunshots were heard while public buildings were burned in the city of Almaty, Reuters reported.

All Cabinet members resigned in response to the outburst, but protesters still left a path of destruction. Police were seen using water cannons and stun grenades against demonstrators.

While Pelosi and company engage in their mutual masturbation event tomorrow, perhaps they should see what a real "insurrection" looks like.

What’s a real protest, and what’s a Soros-inspired, CIA color-revolution?

Its so hard to know these days - even here in the USA

Yeh, wouldn’t it be nice?? It’s fun to imagine, at least until the thought police (FBI) haul you off.

It's a bit more direct, but less obscene than "'Eff Joe Biden".

My son’s girlfriend went home to Kazakhstan from college for the Christmas break. Now, she appears to be stuck there.
