On Friday, Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny was sentenced to 19 years in prison on charges of supporting “extremism.” This is actually his fifth criminal conviction, and, according to a report from USA Today, “Navalny and his supporters have repeatedly criticized his criminal convictions as politically motivated and described them as attempts by Russian President Vladimir Putin to silence his archenemy.”
Navalny has been incarcerated since January 2021. He has reportedly been an outspoken critic of the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin and was found guilty of multiple charges, including creating and participating in an extremist community, financing extremist activities, organizing such a community, making public calls for extremist actions, and involving minors in dangerous activities. Additionally, Daniel Kholodny, the former technical director of Navalny’s YouTube channel, was also convicted of similar offenses, receiving a lesser sentence of eight years in a penal colony.

What's even more ominous is the timing of our DJY persecutions which currently seem to come on the heels of breaking Biden news, like a magician's illusion where distraction is the key to "the magic."
