Before we go all anti-Putin here, let's review some of the facts
Mikhail Khodorkovsky - Secretly and ILLEGALLY shipped billions in Russian Rubles out of Russia, into illegal bank accounts in Tel Aviv, Paris and London and into off-shore accounts to avoid taxes. Funded the overthrow of the St Petersburg & Moscow/Putin political alliance...pissed off hundreds of influential Russians
Alexander Litvinenko - likely killed himself

Sergei Udaltsov - Leader of the Vanguard of Red Youth (AKM), calling for the violent overthrow of the Russian government. Mayor of Moscow demanded his arrest for inciting hatred and acts of violence
"Gary Kasparov" - real name Garik Kimovich Weinstein - Broke Russia's "foreign agent" laws in spying for Israel. Was warned and warned and warned and f%cking warned again!!! Thumbed his nose up. "Gary Kasparov" was smarter than the Russian government so he didn't have to follow serious Russian laws. Now he knows better...he is smarter today because he knows not to f'around with the Russian people!
Yulia Tymoshenko - Another Ukrainian ACTRESS/ACTOR who was PM of Ukraine, caught in a corruption probe, saying she was only doing what everyone else in Ukraine was doing, convicted in court!
Bernie Sanders - Had nomination stolen by DNC
Justin Trudeau - invoked the War Measures Act and brutally suppressed peaceful protesters, who were against vaccine mandates and had their bank accounts frozen...all done to stay in POWER!!!
Except Bernie Sanders never wanted the nomination. He knew running for the Presidency was a way to make millions.
Justin Trudeau is an idiot.
