University student Olesya Krivtsova has been missing a lot of classes.
That's because 20-year-old Olesya is under house arrest. She has an electronic tag on her leg. Police can monitor her every move.
Her alleged crime? Olesya was arrested for anti-war posts on social media. One of them concerned last October's explosion on the bridge linking Russia to annexed Crimea.
"I posted an Instagram story about the bridge," Olesya tells the BBC, "reflecting on how Ukrainians were happy with what had happened."
She had also shared a friend's post about the war.
Then the drama began.

It’s like green on green violence, ya just don’t know who to root for...
LOL!!
Some fellow church members turned in people that attended the Jan 6th rally.
Another Russian enjoying Putin’s return to the ‘good old days’ of gulags and empty grocery shelves. Why doesn’t somebody shoot this dick in the head?
Some family members turned in their relations to the US FSB [Federal Slime Bureau] over the January 6th rally.
Oregon governor Kate Brown ordered no more than 7 people could attend Thanksgiving dinner. Granny had more than 7 and a family member turned her in to the state. Granny got a letter of reprimand from the Governors office.
Local newspaper ran a poll, should people lose their jobs if they are not vaxxed. Over 70% said yes.
Keep Oregon Soylent Green
Is this really newsworthy?
We Americans can’t be so smug about these stories anymore, since the Obama/Biden administration is holding its’ own gulag of political prisoners.
2nd amendment ping.
Apparently newsworthy enough for you to stop by and comment
The sneaky Ukrainians were key players in the coup against President Trump. The first impeachment was driven by President Trump's call to Zelensky and Ukrainian-born "whistle-blower" Col. Vindman was the impetus. Col. Vindman was offered the high position of Defense Minister of Ukraine twice by the Ukraine - why?. The coup against President Trump led us into the Ukraine War and the death of hundreds of thousands of people and the impoverishment of America. We are led by traitors and snakes.
Col. Vindman, 44, explained during his impeachment testimony that he had been offered the position three times but declined the position because of his loyalty to the United States. The lieutenant colonel was born in Ukraine, but his family immigrated to the U.S. when he was a toddler.
Col. Vindman claimed he did not know why he was offered the high ranking position of defense minister.

Col. Vindman is, was, and always will be a foreign-born Ukrainian snake and a traitor.
After all of the Ukraine's dirty deeds, amazingly, after President Trump was only out of office a little over a year we were at war with Russia at the behest of the Ukraine.
Indeed, the Gulags in Russia are filled with political prisoners as we speak.
They just don’t use the the word Gulag anymore, but in reality it’s the same thing.
The opposition leaders have been thrown in there to rot.
Also, any Russian citizen pronouncing the word “war” gets years in prison for just uttering that world. That’s how much the Kremlin “love” their Russian people... People in Russia are just canon fodder.
The Kremlin guys sons and daughters are safe though, they will never see the frontlines of the nations they are invading. They can eat their caviar and live comfortably in Moscow. Sovietism all over again... Yes they are back in force.
As an ending note:
Putin and his deep-state Kremlin accomplices have rigged the Russian elections for decades, and that’s the only reason Putin is STILL in power.
The dozen Putinistas here on FR supporting Putin are unwittingly supporting the uber-rigging-election-boss himself - Mr. Putin.
So its very ironic they are not supporting the election-riggers here in the USA as well... or, maybe they secretly do...
At the outset of the Special Military Operation Ukraine had a larger army in the field than Russia. That is no longer the case. Russia destroyed Ukraine’s tank brigades and now Ukraine is begging desperately for replacements. Ukraine’s Army has been decimated by the Russian tactic of using artillery to attack and destroy fixed entrenchments. Even if NATO decided to mobilize and send its own troops to reinforce Ukraine, that would not be enough to “expel” Russian forces. Russia is fighting for its homeland.

Russia’s so-called “conscripts” are military reservists, plus an estimated 100,000 volunteers who signed up. Ukraine, by contrast, is kidnapping 16 year old boys and 60 year old men off the streets in places like Kiev and Odessa. I find it hard to believe that Milley really believes the crap he is spewing. If he does then the United States military is in grave danger with a moron like that in charge.
###
Russia enjoys advantages in personnel, tanks, artillery, ammunition, electronic warfare, combat aircraft, helicopters and hyper sonic missiles. There is zero evidence that Ukraine has more courage, resilience or tactical skill than the Russians. In fact, the real asymmetry is that Russia has more trained soldiers than Ukraine by a vast margin.
###
Ukraine, with the help of the West, is sleep walking into the slaughterhouse. Ukraine and NATO’s refusal to wake up and grasp the reality of what is happening is likely to lead to the destruction of both.
