Vladimir Putin has been cut off during an address to a huge rally in Russia on the eighth anniversary of the annexation of Crimea.

The Russian President was mid-sentence when a state broadcast cut to patriotic songs – prompting confusion among audiences.

He was speaking in front of 100,000 supporters at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium when the feed unexpectedly cut out and began playing a concert by singer and composer Oleg Gazmanov.

A woman translating Mr Putin’s speech said: ‘The beginning of the operation coincided by accident with the birthday of one of our military leaders…’ before the feed cut out.

She then translated: ‘Forward Russia, forward Russia. Russia forward.’

Thousands of people waving flags emblazoned with the symbol ‘Z’ packed into Moscow’s World Cup stadium to hear Mr Putin speak.

Pootie doesn’t look too well. Maybe having nightmares of Ukrainian tractors is keeping him up at night

It was pathetic to watch too. She then giggled afterwards before letting Zelensky speak.

Rasputin will not be taken out by his people.


The real Rasputin was taken out, but it wasn’t easy. That guy was tough.

If more people would read what Putin is actually saying, they’d understand the threat.

~~~~~~~~~

Let me correct that.

If more people would read what Putin is actually saying, they’d understand that Ukraine is being run by corrupt US and WEF politicans and thugs, Nazis, and is stuffed with biowarelabs and that he is entirely justified in cleaning the Ukraine cess pit.

Has Putin ever had a rally before, or is he trying for Trump love? I mean the love Trump supporters have for him.

“Rasputin will not be taken out by his people. “

Rasputin WAS taken out by his people. So was the last Czar and his family, and so was Leon Trotsky. So was Michael Gorbachev, almost, except his captors were taken out by each other before they could do unto him. Whether Putin ends up that way remains to be seen, but it’s entirely possible.
