  1. How soon till the final scenes of Downfall start to play out? He seems to be getting more erratic every day.

  2. It’s obvious he lacks trust in his circle. Nepotism is a good way to rectify that. This regime is not above pushing you out of a window for disagreeing with their dictator.

  3. “My relatives wouldn’t assassinate me, right? Right?”

  4. No way this can’t be seen as an absolutely, definitely, truly positive sign. Right?

  5. hes worried about a coup against him, fun fact the russian military doesn’t use truck trailers main reason being is that it makes it way harder to march up to moscow like the wagner soldiers did.
    hes more worried about the military turning against him than he is to make gains in ukraine

  6. So that’s why he’s going to North Korea? To get pointers on setting up your illegitimate dynasty?

  7. >to signal that he wants to clear out wastage and corruption in the ministry and harness Russia’s war economy more effectively to serve the needs of soldiers at the front.

    Haha!

  8. It is true putin, Look over your shoulder and check those closet and under the bed but Avoid those untrusted Windows.

  9. >He appointed Anna Tsivileva, **the daughter of his late cousin**, as a deputy defence minister whose responsibilities will include improving social and housing support for military personnel. **Her husband Sergei Tsivilev** is Russia’s energy minister.

    What a exceptional coincidence that his cousins daughter is suited to be deputy defense minister and that her husband is the best energy minister in the country!? What are the odds?

    >Also named as deputy defence ministers were Oleg Savelyev and Pavel Fradkov, the **son of former Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov**. Fradkov will oversee the management of property, land and construction relating to the military.

    The son of a former prime minister is also suited to be deputy defense minister! That must be a one in a billion chance or they just have great genes! Amazing!

  10. Ah yes, the dictators dilemma: you can appoint loyal or competent people but never both.

  11. People probably telling him what he wants is impossible. Gotta get a yes man in there

  12. Sounds like what Trump did to his government and also to the RNC with Lara.
