Thank you for such a dignified and appropriate "eulogy" for this fearless man who fully deserves to be honored. But, in passing, (though we have good reason to doubt that his death was "natural") there are two new lessons to be learned: (a) Putin must have felt very insecure if he failed to ensure that Navalny survived for at least until after his election next month; and (b) Putin is no longer even concerned how Navalny's death would be received by the world, especially the western world.....he is showing the world his finger.
The right is on a massive losing streak, and has been since 2019. The swath of Mid Western states, MN, WI, MI, as well as PA all have Democrats in the governorship AND every US Senate seat. ALL are statewide victories for the Dems. Add AZ to this list, inc. Sinema.
* * * There is NOT a single state which will flip to vote trump/fascist ... To put this another way - WHICH five major states will flip? Which FIVE major states will flip? Or - the real numbers stack up to more victories to Democrats, all of us!
Women and young voters are carrying us to victory, as they have in 2020, 20201, 2022, last year and this year in NY 3 and the special election for the PA House seat (this past Tuesday)
It is vital to look at the facts on the ground, where the boots do the talking! Don't be lost in the propaganda of the airwaves. That is all air; they have no standing, they have no boots!
Tucker Carlson's Clown Show featuring Tucker's bombastic ignorance and his usefulness as a Russian Tool and now the death, no murder, of Navalny. Two terrible and terribly revealing events. US politicians need to stop their self-indulgent posturing, wake-up, see what's happening in the world and behave seriously on serious topics. Keep up the excellent work Diane, we need you.
A heart wrenching and beautiful tribute to a Hero of our troubled, sickening times. I cannot help link this crime to the emboldenment given Putin by a certain craven American TV host.
Wow - woke up to this news - stunned (but not surprised of the inevitable) - this is not sad - it's TRAGIC & it makes USA's Republicans look like a gong show - the KeyStone Cops in real time - should be the new name of this dysfunctional group of overpaid idiots. Nalvalny's death makes these elected people look like trailer trash. Yup - I'm angry, devastated, that tRUMP pampers the likes of this murderer, as described by Zelensky. If the world doesn't put on their 'big boy pants' in the name of Navalny - welcome WW 3 - the end of our lives of peace.
I guess Putin is sending a message to the world he is not afraid of anyone by Killing Navalny. If more critics start dying it maybe Putins way to create expanded war. You get rid of critics if one wants to create a bigger war. Seems NK is also looking to expand its war as does Iran building the bomb. Then China with its idea of taking over Taiwan. And Hamas fight with Israel. All taken together of allies of Russia big trouble brewing like a Volcano about to explode.
Terrible grief at this terrible news. Reminds me that we live such easy lives, but this man barely escaped with his life after KGB poisoning and was safe in Germany, then straight returned to Russia and immediately into jail, going from worse to worse until this death trap of a prison in or near the Arctic circle. God willing this dreadful event will bring about meaningful political change. And thank you for this detailed article.
Thank you Diane for the reminder and reporting. Let's hope the US (namely the GOP, Trump, Carlson, etc...) and the World get a clearer picture of what Putin is all about. He is simply an evil man and hungry for power/money. His palace would make good target practice for his enemies and fellow Russians who fear him. Pictures of ruins come to mind like in Ukraine and other countries like Syria, etc... come to mind.
An apt response to Navalny's death would be the US House of Representatives approving the bill to support Ukraine. But the Republicans have neither the courage nor strength to do the obvious. As a result, they affirm their support for Putin.

Agree documentary was revealing and relevant
I am terrified the USA will elect a criminal dictator wannabe and chaos will fast become the new normal. Democracy at the door to the garbage dump.
Norman. Everyone!

Look to polite, benign Canada for that scenario.

We should not be shocked - and yet ...
Вечная память Алексею Навальному
