Russia’s prime minister and its entire government resigned on Wednesday as part of sweeping constitutional changes that could see President Vladimir Putin extend his hold on power.
It actually will end up making him the only one in charge for as long as he wants.
In his annual state-of-the-nation speech, Putin said he favored changing the constitution to hand the State Duma, the lower house of Parliament, the power to choose Russia’s prime minister and other key positions. He would be the Prime Minister, of course.
There are a few other options, but they all end with him in charge of everything.
THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT RESIGNED
Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev, a longtime trusted ally of Putin’s, said on Wednesday that the government he heads was resigning to give the president room to carry out changes he wants to make to the constitution.
Putin has held power for almost twenty years and now it will be forever. He has either served as Prime Minister or President.
Without the changes, Putin would have been finished after his fourth and last presidential term in 2024.

This could turn into a reversion to the days of Stalin, or the “cleansing” of Russia’s corrupt Mafia-types and a more reasonable government. The Russian people seem to love him. They hated Stalin. Wait and see.
I’m sure that a lot of the Democratic presidential candidates are secretly wishing that once they get into the oval office they would be able to do the same thing.
It’s not a secret anymore. See this:

And thus it begins, Putin’s era of dictatorial fascist communist dictatorship. I don’t suppose it should take too long for the bloodletting to start. After all Putin’s worshiped mentor are Stalinist ideologies to the core. The most dangerous megalomaniac on earth is this degenerate bully of a coward. His detractors had better flee for their very lives, time is short. Those under 35 whom seek an open, expansive more free and liberal society will soon be hunted down beaten and tortured, incarcerated and/or slaughtered. Just as Stalin, Putin WILL NOT allow even a whisper of discontent. He truly is a demented, psychotic, insane “Emperor” wanna be. Look out World. “I have become Death, the Conqueror of Worlds”. A little too theatrical? Watch and see.
Maybe. He reinstated the churches, there’s that. Watch and see is correct, opinions are not reality.
As if we in the US have any say. If the Russian people don’t have a problem with Putin, so be it. Hillary would have been worse if she was elected. And then there’s Bernie the the rancid ranting Marxist malcontent.We have our own screwball Dem-coms in congress and the Democrat Commie Pavlovian candidates who Putin would eat for breakfast should anyone of those Yahoos get elected. 8 years of Prince George the bumbling Bush, followed by 8 years of the Muslim kowtowing water carrier of Mohamed, and 3+ years of the anti-freedom un-American rabid demolition demonic-rats in congress, and your’re worried about Putin? I’m more concerned for the health and safety of our president and eliminating the evil of the deep state embedded in Washington. However, my faith and hope in this remarkable man who is our president and the the decent people in our country is stronger than any fear/worry I could have about a foreign leader. Keep busy and help President Trump get re-elected. Concentrate on that goal, and worry less.
