Instragam: https://www.instagram.com/TLDRNewsEU/
Over the weekend, Russia held an election for the Lower House of their parliament, but to the surprise of few, it has been fraught with allegations that the election was rigged. So in this video, we’ll discuss the results, the reasons commentators are calling it rigged, and what this means for the future of Russia and Vladimir Putin.

Earlier this week, a trade war broke about between the US and Canada. But the EU, a more Canada-aligned ally, appears to have a pretty muted response so far. So, in this video, we’re taking a look at the escalating US-Canada trade war, how it’s pushing Canada towards the EU and how the EU is responding.

Russia you are doing it all wrong
Take away voter ID, mail in ballots, block observers, count in the middle of the night, register your dead voters to vote, and shame/demonize/pressure/call conspiracist everyone who disagrees, fire dissident journalists like Ed Schultz, call it hate speech when people who lost voice their opinion, and remove social media accounts of those who post inconsistencies of elections
That’s the proper way to run free and transparent elections
Hope you one day learn

Russia has not changed in 500 years: single-man rule, buttressed by a secret police apparatus. Ivan IV had the Oprichnina, Nikolai II had the Okhrana, Lenin had the Cheka, Stalin had the NKVD, Brezhnev had the KGB, Putin has the FSB. Why don't you focus on the stolen American election? Russia's elections have always been a crock. The United States used to have reliable elections, at least. That's news. Not allowed to talk about it by the YouTube overlords? Don't want to get de-monetized or de-platformed for broaching a notion that is so obviously ridiculous that YouTube won't even allow it to be aired?

If anyone wants to know why western media attacks Putin so much, its because he kicked out western oligarchs and payed off the national debt. He essentially kicked out the western central banking cartels that rob us blind and were robing Russia blind thanks to Boris Yeltsin. Putin is VERY popular in Russia, he doesn't need to rig an election. But go ahead keep attacking, they will be about as effective as 20 years of unprecedented economic sanctions.

I all tyrants loose power eventually, whether the day in power like Stalin or Mao the fact is a persons power never lasts and when they either removed or dead the power base dies with them.
Putin is akin to a Tsar in Russia, people swear loyalty to him out of fear and those who speak against him are imprisoned or disappear, I don’t think Russia will know democracy for long time yet. Let’s hope and pray that the Russian people find the strength to demand democracy and that they have a fair government which is a true representation of the people.
All I can say to finish he point I am making is God Save poor Russia !
