Vladimir Putin murdered the brave Aleksei Navalny and Donald Trumpzis cult knows it!

NPR- Prison officials in Russia say opposition leader Alexei Navalny has died in an Arctic penal colony. They say they're investigating his cause of death. Navalny had been in shaky health after surviving poisoning that he blamed on the Russian government.

The Kremlin denied it. But, Secretary of State Antony Blinken says the Russian government - and leader Vladimir Putin - always feared Navalny's opposition to their regime.

Echo opinion letters published in The New York Times:
"You are not allowed to give up." -- Alexei Navalny
4 June 1976 – 16 February 2024, was a Russian opposition leader, lawyer, anti-corruption activist, and political prisoner.

Aleksei Navalny’s courage, fortitude, indomitable spirit and unshakable moral clarity will stand the test of time and serve as beacons of hope for victims of oppression and totalitarianism everywhere.

While the world mourns his passing, Mr. Navalny’s legacy and all that he stood for during his relatively short life will never diminish in their capacity to inspire the collective will to be free despite the seemingly overwhelming obstacles in realizing this basic human desire in many parts of the world, including Mr. Navalny’s homeland. From Mark Godes in Chelsea, Massachusetts

To the Editor: Aleksei Navalny’s heroic efforts for the principles of freedom, even up to his death, is in stark contrast to those Republicans in the U.S. Congress who refuse to pass an economic/military aid bill to support Ukraine’s effort to thwart Russia’s invasion. Shame on them. From John W. Kusek in Ithaca, N.Y.

To the Editor: With the death of Aleksei Navalny at 47, after he was apparently in good health and spirits just the day before, the ultimate responsibility rests with Vladimir Putin.
Mr. Navalny no doubt knew that his return to Russia after Mr. Putin’s agents attempted to kill him by placing a deadly poison in his underwear was a high risk. Yet, he and his organization persisted in exposing the massive corruption and evil of the Putin regime in spite of Mr. Navalny’s Arctic imprisonment.

No wonder the Ukrainians are fighting so bravely to escape Mr. Putin’s tyranny. How despicable that Donald Trump and his enablers undermine what Mr. Navalny and so many others have died for: democracy.  From
