@GottaLaff Murder. Days after Trump urged Putin to go after nations.

Oh, no! I shouldn't be surprised but...a tragic but probably predictable end.

Karma, please catch up with putin in speedy fashion.

@GottaLaff He was a white supremacist and a nationalist. Nothing of importance was lost. https://www.rferl.org/a/navalny-failure-to-renounce-nationalist-past-support/31122014.html

@GottaLaff Heartbreaking. Just heartbreaking. 47 years old. How has Putin not be "offed" ffs.

2/ Andrew Weissmann:

’s outlandish absolute immunity argument wd permit him to off people in the exact same way Putin can off political opponents like Navalny.

@GottaLaff I'm getting weary of his legal expertise. He spent half of yesterday talking about how Fani Willis should do the right thing and step down before Katie Phang pointed out that nothing in the hearing justified her doing so.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@darthstar Yes, but this has nothing to do with that. This isn’t a legal opinion.

@GottaLaff
It's stating the obvious which is what most of the TV experts are there to provide. But it's also turning a Russian issue into an American one by imagining Trump with the same powers.

How can we make this about Trump shouldn't be the first question out of their mouths.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@darthstar It was one of the first things that occurred to me. I nearly posted it, then I saw his tweet.

I agree with him. People need to realize that this is how Trump wants to proceed.

If it holds up in court, couldn’t Biden off Trump?

@GottaLaff Or inconvenient people like Jeffery Epstein?

@GottaLaff The funny thing is if he wins the argument, SCOTUS can pack its bags.

Biden could dismiss all of them, call off the election or change the Constitution at will, or all of it.

@GottaLaff It would also allow Biden to off HIS political rivals, SCOTUS, judges, etc.

Putin just killed off one opponent, and he disqualified one not too long ago. Trump has absolutely said that if an opponent got too popular, he'd have to take steps to neutralize the threat.

GottaLaff OP ,
@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@CassandraVert Yes, I mentioned that this morning. And he'd do just that.

@GottaLaff This finishes Putin. He is now clearly shown for what he always was: a little, vicious murderer. Trump is our American Hitler, Putin is Hitler's heir in Russia. He cannot get away from that now.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@flyhigh This? Omg, he’s been like this his whole career.

@flyhigh@universeodon.com avatar

@GottaLaff True, but he has also been a master of stealing and murdering while seeming to be far away when it happens. Ukraine was a huge mistake that he's tried to talk his way out of but Navalny's murder is so clearly down to him that even he can't pretend that he has an excuse or had nothing to do with it.

Navalny was a singular exemplar of radical courage. May history remember him as an inspiration, and may his memory be for a blessing. 💐

@GottaLaff Navalny was a true hero. He was safely outside Russia, after Putin. Tried to murder him the first time with poison, but voluntarily returned, putting himself in harm's way again, to challenge the regime from within Russia. RIP.

Maybe I've missed them, but I've not seen any messages condemning his murder from Trump or his acolytes.

@GottaLaff

The entire Russian experiment, in its current form, is 1,000 thugs living their best super-yacht life. He exposed this and was murdered for it.
