Some say the situation is “complex”. I disagree, but these two self-promoting clowns aren’t going to help anything.
RT by @karmel80: In #Minsk, pregnant woman was detained ... for seeking shelter from rain by using ⚪️🔴⚪️ umbrella. She was spared from imprisonment due to her pregnancy & having 2 minor children.
If you are in #Belarus, avoid wearing 🔴⚪️ colors in your clothing as it leads to imprisonment

How is it possible that it’s not front page news when a man who soon may return to power calls for law enforcement to kill people for minor crimes? Who said the Joint Chief should be executed? Who said the way to stop forest fires was to water 800 million acres of forest?

AND NEW RULES HAD TO BE ADDED CONTINUALLY BECAUSE PEOPLE DID OTHER DAMAGING SHIT. LIKE THIS YEAR.
