Since I posted about this yesterday https://imgur.com/gallery/5CXzcHi a video has surfaced of the arrest, it's not what you expect. Or maybe it is? I'm not your boss.

Ghost u r the best, this was unexpected to see someone following this story. It is hard to stomach. She is imperfect and likely silenced rip
factcheckmate
Even the guy who first posted her videos, was arrested twice. Navalny who tried to run against Putin. After that she went into hiding
TheMightyMoto
Whelp, she wont be back.
Ididthisforthelol
And that was the last time anyone ever saw her again.

I'm surprised the one who recorded this is not found with crippling depression and committed suicide, yet.
SpaceMarineWithAnUrgeToPurge
Shit, why not just throw a black bag over her head while you're at it?
manslut
Black bag would clash with her outfit. They're fashion savvy fascists. Also does savvy really have two v's wtf

Is Mother Russia....bag cost money.....violence free. They want others to see and know..... it is why they beat people to death...

I mean, how would you arrest someone? She resisted and they did a good job restraining her.

get the fuck outta here with your pro authoritarian drivel
DignamWhenAskedaQuestion
Has this been shown in the states ?
Slander7
The fact that she was arrested was in the news in the last couple of days, but not the brutality of the arrest.
DignamWhenAskedaQuestion
it reminds of another story i saw, about this Saudi Girl who was also detained in Thailand .
bakulaspectacula
I'm in the states and it's the first I'm seeing of it. I'm pretty up on my news too... gotta check around now.
disappointer
The first I heard of this was a post on FB someone saying "but soliciting, so we can't trust her!" Getting a little overly defensive...
FaoySamfs
When you're making a claim like she did your character is going to come into question regardless of party affiliation.

Only if you're a woman

Or telling the truth
TheGhostofElizabethShue
The smear campaign is real. And yet no-one has a bad word to say about the billionaire whose boat she was ho-ing on.
humanthing
She had 16 hours of audio recordings. We better fucking grant her asylum. Also remember russia runs troll farms that post on social media
pronoun
She's part of an activist group that protests naked in support of Harvey Weinstein. That's real. So, no wonder her credibility is questioned

How is her opinion on an American producer relevant to the important information she released? It could’ve been the pope or satan that 1/2

She's also threatened to have sex and film it with public figures in Russia she doesn't like in order to black mail them.

At what fucking point does Putin realize that he, in fact, is a bad guy? Cause it sounds like he's gone past it like a denial mad manAlready
killbillsexwife
Putin does whatever the fuck Putin wants. The only person he was scared of was Hillary Clinton so guess who he got elected

It's one of those perspective things. "What I do for me, myself and I is important and just." That must be what's going through that mind.

Sooo, how about the Cohen lied to Congress story? It is a hard one to get people to understand why so important. Feb 7th Feb 7th. Ty ?
sedoone
The special council now refutes buzzfeed. Hmm
Cheomesh
Between the two, I know which one is more credible.
Jiggly1984
I wouldn't say he refutes BF. The statement is very careful in it's wording that "specific statements" and "characterization of documents" 1
Jiggly1984
"regarding Cohen's Congressional testimony are not accurate." I suspect that there may be some exaggeration or misinterpretation, but not 2
Jiggly1984
That BF's reporting is entirely wrong. It'll be interesting to see how it shakes out.
YeahButIThinkIAteIt
They didn't refute the whole article. They stated that certain portions of the article were inaccurate. Specifically about what documents 1/
YeahButIThinkIAteIt
the special counsel has in its possession. They were rather vague in their statement, so far more clarification is needed. Unfortunately 2/
YeahButIThinkIAteIt
they do have to be rather vague, as this is an active investigation & revealing exactly what they dispute could tip off those who are 3/
YeahButIThinkIAteIt
under investigation. It could give away certain evidence before they are ready to reveal it. So we'll only know the extent of what they 4/
sedoone
Cohen gives testimony, public. Juicy.
sedoone
Also, it might also be a real turning point for gop. They need something they can turn on trump with. This will help.
sedoone
This helps build the PUBLIC case between impeachment, resignation or fail to reelect
Phlapjack923
Now if only people would realize that he can be impeached, yet remain President
DefinitelyNotKolbin
I don't trust the sources of the story. Believe me, I'm as anti Trump as they come but I need confirmation. Team Trump wants distrust of FBI
sedoone
And now Mueller is coming out against story
sedoone
Yeah ultimately it is about Muellers findings. Patience on my part is lacking...
Beleg7
“She ded” seems like an inadequate response to watching a murderous dictator kidnap a young woman for trying to expose his crimes.
BobKelsoMD
it's easy and thus allows a response without really thinking through the implications

Yes.

catmani2
Welcome to the real world. Basically much of the west, and few eastern nations are where this doesn't happen. Most of the world is garbage
Joysins
Her life is in danger simply because she spoke out against her government. This isnt ok. Stop joking and saying she shouldve known better

Also prostitution couldve been a ploy to get her into russian hands. They seemed pretty damn ready for her, and while its speculation i dont

She has bragged about it on her IG and has vids. She did this for publicity too, I’m sure, and got it in an unexpected way

Dude, it was the Republicans claiming Russia was a threat in 2012 and Obama and the Democrats laughing at them. Your argument is pathetic
catmani2
The fact is, Trump has done more against Russia in 2 years than Obama did in 8. Now, I know everyone will down vote this because facts don't
catmani2
matter to them but that is the truth. Trump may have colluded with Russia but there currently is no proof. The arguments here are just dumb

What has Trump specifically done himself against Russia? Because he's been defending them at every turn.

Glad you asked. He bomb their troops in Syria, actually intervened in Syria, armed the Ukrainians, expelled Russian diplomats, closed

arrest? that’s real shit kidnapping right there
EggFooYung
In Russia it's always been pretty much the same thing.

That's what getting arrested anywhere is - it's not like the person getting arrested tends to consent to their detention...

tallbo
I mean its not unheard of for someone to be taken into custody after being deported from a foreign country for a felony, but its shady
DavidBrooker
Russia assured her safe passage, since she was only planning on transiting the country. Arrests on the air-side of an airport are rare.
tallbo
you ain't wrong
aguacatedeldiablo
Is hard to make conclusions from this - if she was without any escort on the plane, she could have gotten piss drunk
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Congrats, of all the lazy, shitty things people have said in these comments this is the worst.
aguacatedeldiablo
Why, because I'm playing devil's advocate?
aguacatedeldiablo
2 but, unless there's more to the story than what's reported here, that's a lot of police to detain someone for prostitution
tigercheesesteak
Or uh drunkeness as you say
reuvil
She has dirt on the Russian elite, you have no idea wtf you're talking about.
pronoun
Why? Because they aren't in uniform? She was arrested for prostitution. Pretty straight forward.
Treybetrey
TheGhostofElizabethShue
In an airport, without going through immigration, and hit with a sedative, and smuggled out before she could talk to press. Yeah very normal
spetcnaz
There is no requirement to go through customs to be arrested. The sedative part we have to yet see.
TheGhostofElizabethShue
You can see it above. That's a sedated person. Or are you gonna claim she was drunk too like that other asshole?
spetcnaz
I don't see her being sedated
iluvbunbuns
Does the video show her being injected with anything?
pronoun
Think of it this way. If she's claiming to have or threatening to give ANY sensitive info to the US, that makes her an enemy of the state.
TheGhostofElizabethShue
Gosh, better exert influence on corrupt Thai officials to get her hand delivered to Moscow then. She's not even Russian. This shit is evil.
Yourenotwrongyourejustanapple
Well, I don't imagine she's just WENT w/ the russian police. That's not an unreasonable way to carry a limp person.
TheCowSaysMoooo
Remember the names of those GOP senators that just voted to lower sanctions on Oleg Deripaska, the person she said she had dirt on. Shame!

She wasn't even supposed to go to Russia, but the plane mysteriously landed in Moscow after her so called accusations. And here there is

Clear video of her being blackbagged directly after the unscheduled landing. But still it's not good enough for you huh?

Maybe you should ask the BBC. We all know Russia is dodgy are you claiming that she isn't a pump. Highly doubtful she has any information

eion85
Secret police, not secretive arrest.
thatgayscienceguy
making a point about how she was actually arrested for prostitution after being deported from thailand for prostitution. as per the BBC cita
eion85
She didn't commit a crime in Russia, to Russians, and is not a Russian citizen. They have no cause to arrest her.
thatgayscienceguy
Russia claimed she was a pimp, which is why she was deported from thailand. according to the BBC. Russia are certainly the craziest wypipo
Bukkhockey
Read what she's accused of and was already convicted of/jailed for in Thailand. She very well could be part of a scumbag sex cult.
ChuckNorrisAteMySock
In violation of THAI law. Russia would have no jurisdiction, especially since she's not even a Russian national.
pronoun
Think of it this way, if she's claiming to have and threatening to give ANY sensitive information to the US, it makes her a threat to Russia
OverpricedCrayon
The fact shes been taken is enough to suspect she has something they’re afraid of getting out.
AncientSeraph
Or they just use her as an example not to antagonize the state.
OverpricedCrayon
She's also not Russian. Its the same as if they took an American because one of us antagonized the state. That doesnt fly right.

SuperbBackhand
Devil's advocate, I think if it was a false claim, it'd piss off Putin more for jeopardizing international relations for no reason
ReaperCDN
People make crazy claims about their government all the time and don't get arrested. Taking action against her implies merit.
TGWeaver
In no possible world would a false claim piss off a power-mad despot more than an actual threat to his power.

A false claim that threatens international relations is a threat to his power...

He’s a despot to a literal shit hole country. He’s showing how scared he is of anything that challenges his rhetoric. Fuck these commies.

Some idiot talking shit is not as big a threat to power as a literal, actual threat to power.
SuperbBackhand
A lie would have the same impact as truth, at least as of right now... if it got discredited/proven, then we have a different case
Darkspire
I have to agree. If she doesn't have anything, let her present her "proof." If you kill her that only fuels the fire of controversy.
Tikityler
This was Devils advocate. Not the choice of real collusion vs fake collusion. Its punish the person claiming the fake collusion or not.

But he doesn't help discredit that by doing this.
SuperbBackhand
Oh, I totally agree, I'm just Putin it out there
eion85
And I think Putin isn't concerned with being on good terms with the US. He's wants Russia to look strong.
ArdentSlacker
I don't think he's interested in discrediting it. I mean, he's got a win-win. If Trump goes down for treason, the US'll have chaos.
