The main Russian investigator was probably framed. He has been fighting criminals of all stripes so skillfully for many years that they want to remove him by any means. They sent him not a prostitute, as usual, but a journalist to discredit him. In that world they were used to equating a prostitute with a journalist.

Chairman of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation Alexander Bastrykin apologized to Novaya Gazeta editor-in-chief Dmitry Muratov for emotional statements addressed to the newspaper, Interfax reports. “I would like to start by apologizing to Dmitry Andreevich (Muratov) for the emotional breakdown that I had at the meeting,” Bastrykin said at a meeting with the chief editors of Russian media on Thursday. “For me, the agenda has been exhausted.

City of Krasnoyarsk. Cafe. Morning. Somewhere behind: -Do you know why Putin is such a brute? I was taken aback, and only had time to rejoice when I saw you: -Yes, because he’s a Jew! And then quietly, hastily, as if someone would not let me finish: -Obviously, look for yourself where injustice occurs, there are Jews everywhere. Of course, I’m okay, people are like people, they live and live, but why are they here like this, if only some kind of abomination?

Something I was going to write so much that it’s even scary to start. In addition, you already know everything. Therefore, I will write briefly. The peppy sound of the saw outside the door early morning Monday forced me to open the door to the fascinating, but tedious adventures of the named after Alexander_uzu_v_les_bastrykin . Adventures temporarily ended three hours ago with a search in our office. Today, only a safe was searched, sealed the day before.

As you know, the best way to save a family and divert suspicion from alleged adultery is to deny everything. Stand firm. Never, never, never, not once. Especially if in the arsenal of a jealous spouse there are only suspicions: she began to dress better, stays late after work, some incomprehensible sparkle in her eyes, and so on. No witnesses, rumors from dubious sources such as OBS, personal cockroaches generated by jealousy. So it is with Bastrykin.

The defense of TV presenter Ksenia Sobchak, whose apartment was searched on Monday, will demand that the investigation return the large sum of money seized from her. “We will go for questioning on Friday. We will demand a return, because we consider the seizure to be absolutely illegal,” Sobchak’s lawyer Henry Reznik told Interfax .

In the regions things are different. Protests in support of the capital's rally on June 12 in several Russian cities were followed by arrests of political activists. The first victims of the new law on rallies may appear in the coming days in Perm, Kemerovo, St. Petersburg or other cities.

Alexey @aavst Venediktov now writes on Twitter: 1. Spoke with Alexander Bastrykin. Let's meet and explain 2. Today Bastrykin will meet with Muratov. Ugh 3. Let me remind you that in the Open Letter Muratov asked Bastrykin to answer questions. Bastrykin agreed to do this. And we will be present. Positive, but in general, it seems to me that the prosecutor, and not Muratov, should first of all meet with Mr. Bastrykin. Original

On June 8, in Nizhny Novgorod, a picket was held against anti -constitutional amendments to the Federal Law on rallies in the theater square. After 35 minutes, five guys who held the stretching “not to ban us” and stretching with the emblem “Strategy-31” were detained. The activists who arrived in the OP-5, who tried to find out the fate of the detained comrades, ignored, sent, then generally stopped letting go to the OP.

I would venture to suggest that, placed in envelopes, the cash found on Ksenia Sobchak during the search is the same “cash” that is usually used to pay artists for participation in various corporate events. This is, of course, not the work of a machine operator in the field, or a worker at a machine, or a salesperson behind a counter, but the work is not easy either. And the payment is appropriate. And Ksenia got into this business, more likely due to the circumstances than on purpose.

You will laugh, but the organizing committee of the “March of Millions” again sent all these funny leftists with their funny social demands into the woods.

There is a separation of powers in the United States, so I think the Obama administration is unlikely to be able to prevent senators from passing the Magnitsky law. I confess that before my trip to Washington, I sincerely thought that much of this legislation was decided at the highest level of politics in America. Well, something like the State Department decided, the State Department did. Imagine my surprise to realize that ordinary Americans are important lobbyists for the Magnitsky Act.
