A hybrid coup is brewing in the Kremlin. Don't you think there has been a coup in the Kremlin?

1. The Russian government has become the most anti-Russian organization. His economic bloc openly promises the collapse of the country - and, most importantly, it does everything for this. The industry is on its last legs - while huge amounts of money are being spent on obviously stillborn projects such as Skolkovo and Rusnano.

2. Why the Duma exists is no longer a secret to anyone: to steal and pass stupid laws that only worsen the life of the country.

3. A huge number of media feed on foreign grants, speaking and showing against us.

4. The immortal banker kahal, who seemed to have been defeated, was reincarnated in hundreds of new shoots that penetrated into all spheres of life without exception. Yes, there are no arrogant Khodorkovsky, Berezovsky, Gusinsky, Smolensky. But instead of them there are quite correct-looking “patriots” who, with an expression of caring attention on their faces, are systematically destroying all the best that our fathers carefully created.

5. No more healthcare, no education, no science, no social support - and so on...

Everything, literally everything, is being done in order to bring the people to the extreme. The noose of negative information about football players, embezzlers, liars and thieves in government and local government structures is tightening around the necks of ordinary people. Every day there are new scandals and revelations. Obvious criminals not only avoid criminal prosecution, but are also appointed to their posts for another term, and even with gratitude and honors. Chubais, Serdyukov, Vasilyeva, Chaika’s children have already become the talk of the town. And “on the ground” people like them firmly hold power in their fist.

All talk about the fight against corruption sounds like a mockery of the working person. And they are heard against the backdrop of calls for freezing wages and benefits and raising the retirement age. Against the backdrop of rising food prices and housing and communal services tariffs - and at the same time, reports of increased salaries for officials...

Isn’t it clear that all this is aimed at creating a revolutionary situation and a social explosion? And what happened in Ukraine before the Maidan is nothing compared to what forces are involved in Russia today. But in Ukraine everything was extremely clear: Yanukovych is sitting here, and he needs to be torn apart. Our situation is different.

There is no autocracy in the country. Yes, of course there was some kind of agreement - and at first it was respected, they did not touch those especially close to the banking kahal. But sensing danger to themselves, they violated the agreement and began to smash their opponents. As Khodorkovsky sat down, so it began. For some time, the squabble was not too dangerous for that clan, but one day, when Russia paid off its uranium debts and began to accumulate funds for the revival of the military-industrial complex, law enforcement agencies and other useful things, the clan became nervous.

Especially when Putin’s people became so greyhounds that they stopped following orders from overseas. And the liberal wing has already mastered its loot - how to report to customers? Well, it launched the white-flecked pro-estants and human rights activists into full swing.

Here they were unlucky again. The pro-government turned out to be more dexterous - and crushed the “swamp movement” without a trace. The security forces not only gained weight and a substantial treasury, but also united under one field marshal. Another round of purges has begun among the security forces and regional heads. Vasilyeva herself, the passion of Serdyukov himself, was put under house arrest and then camp arrest, with partial confiscation of what was stolen from her. Serdyukov himself, who was exposed, almost went to prison! It seemed that just a little more - and the enemy would be finished off!

But something went wrong, and the pro-presidential ones began to give up position after position. Vasilyeva was given back the confiscated goods, Serdyukov was given a good job...

The very fact of Kudrin’s return to politics is already a terrible loss. And he even stopped masquerading. Has anyone ever seen it, in what other country is it possible for some retiree to propose early presidential elections and capitulation to the adversary?

What is the reason for such dashing courage of one of the leaders of the already retired clan?

It seems that the confrontation between the president and the liberal clan has reached a new, extremely dangerous level. History repeats itself - and we are again on the verge of civil war and new Western intervention under the guise of supporting democracy. Would you say this is impossible? After all, we have nuclear weapons! It is there, but using it, even for self-defense, is tantamount to suicide.

No, the pure events of 1917 and the subsequent civil war with intervention will not be repeated. But the complex opposing factions are already growing their armed forces. Here's the news that shocked me to the core:

“On Sunday, June 19, on the Rossiya TV channel in the TV program “News of the Week” there was a story dedicated to the Chechen Republic. Among the achievements of the leadership of the Republic, journalists pointed out the construction of the International Center for the Training of Special Forces in Gudermes... Construction is being carried out with private money from Russian investors, without the participation of budgetary funds and such security agencies as the GRU and the Ministry of Internal Affairs...

The special forces center, which has no analogues in the whole world, will receive the largest shooting range with an area of ​​4 thousand square meters. m., will have its own airfield, wind tunnel and a whole city to practice actions to identify and prevent terrorist threats...

A source close to the National Anti-Terrorism Committee reported that questions began to arise regarding this construction..."

That is, the situation has gone so far that Russian security forces do not control the situation on their own territory. In response to the presidential national guard, an alternative one immediately appears, declaring war on the central government by the very fact of its emergence! This has never happened before in the history of Russia. And if even the well-functioning power machine of the President helplessly throws up his hands in response, only timidly making a reservation about some “issues for this construction project” - then what is this if not a coup d’etat?

How can all this end?

I’m afraid that those desperate heads who are used to fighting for their victory, sparing no one or anything, for the sake of overthrowing an undesirable person who has slammed the gates of heaven to Europe for them, will do anything. Don't believe me? Ask Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein.

And here it’s up to all of us whether we start looking for a scapegoat in the person of the president with his “millions of mistakes,” or whether we stand up to protect a man who is not omnipotent, alas, from the aggression of the said clan. I would like to remind those who blame Putin for everything that they themselves never tire of laughing, looking at Ukrainians blaming our president for all their troubles...

Blaming Putin alone for everything means not noticing that Russia still exists only because it was Putin who took the helm of our country. Just imagine what would have happened to us if Yeltsin had been replaced by some Chubais, who directly said that we were not afraid of the loss of several tens of millions of people. Well, or someone like him. You need to realize that there is now dual power in the country - and clearly understand what comes from where.

Why is a question not only for Putin, but also for the people. It’s not Putin’s fault that the traffic cop is a bribe-taker, but the neighbor is an alcoholic. Those who surround us come into politics. If we are all more decent, politics will inevitably become cleaner. But while we yap at the authorities, and we envy them ourselves, dreaming of stealing something from the country, sending our children to even tiny officials, even with a small kickback - we are that rot that is gradually killing our country.

I do not rule out that Putin will leave if he sees that without making such a decision bloodshed cannot be avoided. Will choose a lesser evil than civil war and external intervention. And today he is being put in such a situation slowly but systematically.

Do you know that the United States is now transferring tactical nuclear bombs to NATO forces in Europe? This is evidence of nuclear blackmail. The United States is not afraid of a nuclear war, because it does not intend to start one. It’s just that some stupid Polish or Bulgarian pilot mistakenly fires a tactical missile with a nuclear warhead towards Russia. The calculation is simple: to launch a massacre using nuclear weapons on foreign territory.

We will then have to answer the Bulgarians or Poles, and there, overseas, they will be eating popcorn in front of the TV and jumping up from the sofas like during a baseball game: “Oh my God! Oh my God!

Everything, no matter how sad, is leading to this. And our duty now is to help Putin regain all power in the Kremlin in order to avoid the worst scenario. But not with servile praise, from which there is zero benefit, or even a minus. And our firm civic position - and everyone knows perfectly well what it is and how it differs from the common current civil rot.

Based on materials from Andrey Kadykchansky

According to the sociological picture of the world, Russians simply adore their president and don’t even want to think about anyone else. But in reality, something completely different is happening!

Huge Russian police forces are now being deployed to protect Putin’s election campaign from the people who love him. The problem is that in various cities of the country - from the Pacific Ocean to the Baltic - people began en masse to make their own changes to posters depicting the dictator.

Poster with Putin

News about this, of course, is carefully hidden, but something has already become public knowledge. The report is only for the last few days. In Vladivostok and Orenburg, grateful citizens threw rotten eggs at posters with Putin. In Tomsk they opened fire on his face with paintball guns.

Well, the most striking example of people's love came from the homeland of the President of the Russian Federation - from St. Petersburg. There, a certain man armed himself with a bucket of black paint and a brush on a long stick. He walked up to one of the billboards with Putin’s image and carefully wrote on it the word “LIAR!”

Poster with the inscription "Liar" in St. Petersburg

It should be noted here that this did not happen in an elite area, but in Kupchino - on an ordinary working-class outskirts of the city. Moreover, this man painted the poster not late at night, but in the evening - there were passers-by on the streets, dozens of cars and buses passed along the road nearby.

But not a single person stopped this artist! Nobody said:

Well, Putin is an excellent president, and not a liar at all.

People either didn't care or even expressed support for the unknown author.

Under these conditions, local authorities throughout the country(!) went to great lengths strange measures. They placed a policeman under every (literally every) large poster with a picture of Putin.

These unfortunates were ordered around the clock sit under posters in your own cars(like, they are not there) and protect Putin’s face from those who want to decorate it. The police are not entitled to any additional payments for this; they even have to burn their own gasoline, purchased with their salaries.

Naturally, the law enforcement officers themselves are furious. They say that this has never happened before; people didn’t pay any attention to election campaigning before.

As a result, patrol police began to quickly become imbued with opposition sentiments.

This is not very surprising: after several days of the stupidest work in the world (and in the Siberian frost) their love for the president quickly disappears.

One of these patrolmen, in an interview with Radio Liberty, directly said that he was under no circumstances going to vote for Putin, and would not go to the polls at all.

I think that if the police are already beginning to quietly hate the Tsar, then his affairs will soon be very bad. In the end, he has no one else to rely on. Oh, and by the way: another interesting detail. Due to the lack of police officers, the number of Putin's election campaigns is also limited. His headquarters is simply afraid to put up posters if they it is forbidden assign a patrolman!

They understand: if Putin hangs around without security, then grateful Russians will definitely do something very bad to him!

Meanwhile, the plot continues to develop with a new investigation into Alexei Navalny. The oppositionist, let me remind you, found out that Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska in the summer of 2016 rode on a yacht with prostitutes and Sergei Prikhodko, one of Putin’s main foreign policy experts.

It struck me that Russian authorities reacted to it much more acutely than even last year’s investigation into “Dimona” - Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.

The court immediately banned not only the investigation video, but also Navalny’s entire blog.

The book of Nastya Rybka, one of the prostitutes, who described her voyage with Deripaska and Prikhodko, was blocked on the Russian Internet. Even the liberal Russian press did not write about this investigation - they were clearly strictly forbidden to do so.

And political scientists close to the government, journalists and experts raised a real squeal, demanding forget the investigation immediately. According to them, there is nothing new there, it is nonsense and a personal matter of the defendants, nothing more. The line of defense here is this: this is dirty laundry, you can’t go there!

Although in fact, the prostitutes in this whole story are it is not important. The main thing is that this is quite serious evidence of Russian interference in the American elections - through that same Prikhodko. By the way, Russian officials and government commentators were categorically forbidden to even pronounce his name.

At any mention of him, they begin to stomp their feet and try to outshout their interlocutor. From this I conclude that Navalny, with his investigation, hit a really soft, unprotected place The Kremlin is in great pain. But that is not all!

Russian journalist Sasha Sotnik came to Kyiv and was live on the Espreso TV channel. It was there that he said that the Kremlin is ready for President Putin to soon cease to lead the country. And this will happen after his trip to the USA.

“The Kremlin is hysterical. Yesterday on the TVC channel the idea was voiced that Putin could even be killed in New York. The situation is further escalating. The guys in the Kremlin don’t quite understand what to do,” Sotnik said.

The journalist compared what is happening in Russia today with the period before the collapse of the USSR.

“Because, as we remember, in 1979 Brezhnev sent troops into Afghanistan, after which everything went to hell and the USSR disappeared. The same thing can happen, unfortunately, to Russia. But here everything is much worse. After all, this is not even Afghanistan at all, this is Ukraine. And that's even worse. And the situation is generally wild. After all, it’s hard to imagine how Putin could even decide to go to war with Ukraine. This was impossible to imagine even in a nightmare. Therefore, the conspiracy of “silence of society”, I am afraid that it will lead to the collapse of the country. And today this is the Russian Empire, at least this is how the Kremlin positions Russia,” noted Sasha Sotnik.

He also noted that it is unlikely that Putin has secured the support of China. Although you never know what’s going on in Putin’s head – that’s the work of a psychiatrist.

“Fortunately for Ukraine, Putin has no allies in this confrontation. Almost all experts emphasize the same thing - for the first time in history, Russia has no allies in the war. Putin and his company are alone against not only Ukraine, but the whole world. Today Russia is not the Soviet Union, which was a powerful state. Russia is a squeezed-out country with virtually no production of its own. And all the talk about import substitution is just nonsense.

There is nothing to replace imports with. And there is no one to replace Putin himself either. Unless he is the same KGB officer. That is, complete zugzwang - no matter what move is made, it will be worse than the previous one,” said Sotnik.

He also said that “Putin’s team” simply understands that there is no way out, and therefore decided to hold out until the end, no matter what it may be.

“There is already talk in Russia that food cards will be introduced in 2016, and so on. That is, these “guys” decided to completely close the country. And when Putin goes to New York, they will simply “carry him around” with his face on the asphalt and “put him down.” But what “Putin’s brothers” will do next is the question. After all, they will not be able to take back the “lowered godfather,” Sotnik emphasized.

Watch the video for the full interview. Don’t be lazy to spend 15 minutes of your time - you won’t regret it!

The storm is approaching.

“Save yourself, and thousands around you will drown” - this is the secret commandment of the oligarchy on board the Kremlin Titanic today. For example, Deripaska, who even has his real estate properties frozen in the United States, has achieved the return of aluminum to every new home in the form of electrical wiring. A little more - and dentists will be obliged to insert aluminum teeth into Russians, and only aluminum panties of loyalty to the government will remain on sale from underwear. Each of those close to him, with desperate grasping movements, tears off pieces from the budget pie, hastily inflating a life preserver for himself, writes Alexander Sotnik for sotnik-tv.

The storm is approaching. The fuss behind the scenes is almost invisible even to inquisitive eyes, but the scraps of information flying out from under the carpet leave no doubt: there is serious squabbling going on there. They seriously hate each other there, but they shit on tiptoe and even swear in a barely perceptible whisper, so that snatches of phrases and echoes of scandals do not touch the ears of the average man who began to open his eyes after the deafening news about his pension being reduced. In order to drown out any rustle in the Kremlin, the sirens of federal TV channels are turned on at full power and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has released hysterics with a full set of foreign policy dishes, which they bang so loudly that the ringing can be heard throughout the entire country.

The Russian Embassy in the UK called on the British government to "urgently clarify its position" on reports that the British military was preparing a cyber attack to cut off electricity in Moscow in the event of a Russian attack on a NATO member. This is one example of information noise organized in response to obvious news.

The Kremlin sends saboteurs to the West and encourages cybercriminals. His actions go far beyond political interests, increasingly crossing the red line, beyond which the front of a real war begins. And in the event of an actual invasion of the same Estonia, Britain will cut off power to the aggressor, depriving him of the ability to conduct military operations - up to complete paralysis.

The entire set of tools is openly outlined in the relevant NATO documents, and is no secret. But the fact of the matter is that the main thing for Moscow is to raise a howl in order to divert attention from the main processes taking place behind the Kremlin wall.

There, behind the battlements, the patchwork quilt of power is cracking with might and main. You are so animated that the devils in the Underworld are jealous of the intensity of passions. Chemezov confronts Zolotov, who kicks back with inept PR at the Kremlin walls, turning into a “call boy”; the media is leaking information about Sechin’s five-story apartment, not to mention the scattered fecal matter of the GRU that stained the uniform of commander Shoigu; activity Ramzan Kadyrov acquired a new territorial scope, with a hint of preparations for an imminent separation from Russia. In the parts of the Sunzha region transferred from Ingushetia to Kadyrov, there are mothballed oil wells dating back to Soviet times, and given that Ramzan has already grabbed the entire “oil industry” for himself, there are no such coincidences, and we are most likely talking about the accumulation of resources for further financial autonomy of this region. The Ingush are indignant and threaten conflict, and if it breaks out in the Caucasus, it will be the beginning of the end of Putin’s empire.

Putin himself has practically already been removed from making important decisions, and his role has been reduced to a decorative level. All he is allowed to do is appear in front of television cameras and pronounce delusional monologues that have nothing to do with reality. The array of claims from those around him against the “arbiter” is growing every day, and will not dissipate.

A dissatisfied population is grumbling from below, business is screaming from the side, being bullied by power connecting rods, foreign policy and sanctions pressure is pressing from above, and a self-fed insatiable lizard is looking into the Botox muzzle with bloodshot mugs. He looks and licks his lips.

The Kremlin towers began to move. Behind this process lies the general background of fatigue of the klepto-elites, the already everyday exhaustion of the population, and the extreme degree of irritation of the Western political establishment.

But don’t expect Special Caesar’s corpse to be dragged across Red Square. It will not happen. The coup, which is already in full swing sneaking through the Kremlin corridors, will be behind the scenes and even hybrid - like everything connected with the passing era of Putinism.

Everyone, of course, is concerned about the answer to the question “who instead of...?” But the process of the hybrid coup is not completed because final agreements have not been reached, and the decision on the “portrait” is secondary here.

Really, what difference does it make - who? The system will remain the same or, worse, even transform into an even more terrifying one. Unless, of course, it explodes from below. And “down there” everything is quiet for now. But this calm only seems unshakable - until the usual portrait is taken in front of everyone. It is then that the factor of unpredictability of the masses can come into play: “There is no longer an intercessor, and there is no one to even kneel before!” The long-term promotion of Volodya’s special image can play a cruel joke on those who promoted it themselves.

A hybrid regime that wages hybrid wars will logically end in hybrid death. The only difference is that the consequences of the decline of the Putin era will result in Russia’s plunge into real and long-term darkness.

How and when will a “palace coup” be carried out in the Kremlin, - Rabinovich

This will happen when, or soon after, ALL Western political leaders declare Putin unwelcome in their countries, even for a short state visit, when they ALL accuse him of war crimes, and say so either openly or using explicit diplomatic language.

Then the members of Putin’s organized crime group will finally understand that the billions and tens of billions of dollars that the Kremlin spends annually on bribing Western leaders and shaping pro-Putin public opinion in their countries no longer work, and their Fuhrer, Vladolf Putler, is no longer capable of protecting your organized crime group and represent its interests both inside Russia and outside. At this moment The Game Will Be Over.

Members of Putin’s organized crime group will offer the West a deck of replacement options, and, as a “transition period,” the West will be inclined to discuss such options. After all, during the “transition period,” the West will need to “talk to someone.” Sergei Ivanov, Nikolai Patrushev, Sergei Shoigu, Sergei Naryshkin and similar war criminals are excluded from replacement options by definition. All former KGB officers of the USSR are also excluded by definition. Dmitry Medvedev, Igor Shuvalov and - especially - Alexey Kudrin (and a number of others) are not excluded. Internal options for eliminating Putin could be varied, but would most likely include a joint conspiracy with Putin's personal security. This may be problematic, but it will become inevitable at a certain stage of Putin’s “damage” not so much from the point of view of the West, but from the point of view of the members of Putin’s organized crime group themselves.

Putin has come a long way as a rising outcast. This path could have been much shorter if not for the stupidity, short-sightedness, cowardice and cynicism of Western leaders. A significant number of lives would have been saved if the West had taken much more decisive measures against the Russian under-Führer right when he was foaming at the mouth in March - October 2014, with fascist speeches about “Novorossiya”, drowned the east of Ukraine in blood and shot down Boeing flight MH-17.

Yes, this path was too long.

Putin received his first serious public political cold shower in November 2014 at the G-20 summit in Brisbane from Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Putin was the first to extend his hand to him, Harper accepted the gesture, but at the same time told the Russian under-Führer: “I think I should shake your hand, but I can only say one thing: you must get out of Ukraine.”

The host of that meeting, Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, who wanted his guests to focus on the economic problems of the world, then said: “Russia would be much more attractive if it aspired to become a superpower for the sake of peace, freedom and prosperity, without trying to recreate the lost glory of tsarism or the old Soviet Union.”

Exactly two years have passed. The US, UK and France have openly accused Putin and Russia, unfortunately represented by him, of war crimes. And, also unfortunately, not for the killing of civilians in Grozny, Tskhinvali or Donetsk. For the killing of civilians in Syrian Aleppo. For some reason, the stupidity, short-sightedness, cowardice and cynicism of Western leaders evaluate the lives of the children of Grozny, Tskhinvali, Donetsk and MH-17 differently than the lives of the children of Aleppo.

US Secretary of State John Kerry accused Russia of war crimes. If my memory serves me correctly, in the entire history of the United States, not a single such high-ranking official of the US administration has used such words in relation to the Russian Empire, the USSR and the Russian Federation.

The same words were directly used by British Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson.

Just last Saturday, French President Francois Hollande said that if one of the permanent members of the UN Security Council blocks the French resolution on Syria, this will discredit this country and make it responsible for the continuation of bloodshed in Aleppo.

The Russian Federation, on the orders of the Russian under-Führer, vetoed this resolution.

Immediately after this, the French leader noted that he “doesn’t know whether he should meet with the Russian president.” In diplomatic language this means: “Vladimir, you are completely UNWANTED on the territory of the French Republic.” In Russian it means something different. On the same day, France officially appealed to the International Court of Justice to investigate war crimes committed by the Russian Federation in Syria.

On October 11, 2016, British Member of Parliament Andrew Mitchell said that Russia had turned Syrian civilians into targets, comparing what was happening in Aleppo to the actions of the Nazis of Hitler's Germany during the Spanish Civil War. “We are witnessing events that would have been consistent with the behavior of the Nazi regime in Guernica in Spain,” said the British MP.

That's it, putler is over. Putin's organized crime group can no longer afford to have such a leader.

In March - October 2014, I publicly stated that the putler would hang himself, you just had to wait. He didn't even need help with this: there was no need to sell him a rope so that he could hang himself with it. The putler found the rope himself - exactly as I predicted then.

Now prominent members of Putin’s organized crime group, who were not directly involved in the war crimes of their boss, and who did not serve in the KGB of the USSR, have the opportunity to receive the West’s blessing for further dialogue and eliminate the Russian under-Führer. And I strongly recommend that they do this, because today two things are obvious:

(1) the putler is no longer suitable for protecting the interests of the organized crime group, and (2) the elimination of the putler removes the serious risk of a global catastrophe, which the sick, inflamed brain of the Russian under-Führer does not seem to exclude. Both factors are very strong to create the necessary and sufficient conditions for an urgent palace coup, as a transition period before the latest Russian revolution.
