Local Russian lawmakers called for Putin's removal from power over the war in Ukraine, and then the police went after them

Local Russian lawmakers in both St. Petersburg and Moscow issued calls this week for Russian President Vladimir Putin to be removed from power over the war in Ukraine — a potentially risky move in a country where dissent can lead to imprisonment or worse.

Municipal deputies from the Smolninsky District Council in St. Petersburg, the Russian president's hometown, issued a statement calling on Russia's parliament to remove Putin from power and charge him with high treason for launching the war in Ukraine, per the Washington Post.

On Wednesday, Deputy Dmitry Palyuga tweeted out the document, which said, "We believe that the decision made by President Putin to start the special military operation is detrimental to the security of Russia and its citizens."

"The Council of the Smolninskoye Municipal District decided to appeal to the State Duma deputies with a proposal to bring charges of treason against President Putin in order to remove him from office," Palyuga stated in the tweet with the document, adding, "The decision was supported by the majority of the deputies present."

In the aftermath, the lawmakers were told by police that they are facing legal charges "due to actions aimed at discrediting the current Russian government," the Post reported.

Lawmakers from a municipal council in Moscow's Lomonosovsky district made a similar move, also calling on Putin to resign.

"The rhetoric you and your subordinates have used for a long time is imbued with intolerance and aggression, which in the end has effectively sent our country back into the Cold War era," the local Moscow lawmakers said in a statement, as reported by the Latvia-based investigative outlet The Insider.

"Russia is once again feared and hated, and we are once again threatening the world with nuclear weapons," they added. "In view of the above, we ask that you resign from your post, since your views and your model of government are hopelessly outdated and hinder the development of Russia and its human potential."

Shortly after ordering the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine in late February, Putin signed a law making it illegal to spread so-called "fake news" about the Russian military. Those found guilty could land in prison for up to 15 years. Rights groups and activists have decried the move as a blatant attempt to stifle free speech and legitimate criticism of the war.

Critics of Putin have often ended up in prison or have died in violent or mysterious ways.

Yahoo News. Same ones that are saying each week that the Almighty Zelensky and his soldiers have driven Russia to the brink of defeat?


Okay...

And why would Putin be fleeing Moscow today?

Piss off. They are a news aggregator and reporting on publicly available information, quoting named Russian lawmakers

Does that not play well with your narrative so you call it “fake news” to make it go away?

clearly cuckish CIA input

so obvious

it simply wont work
mind games

He was last seen babbling incoherently that Russia had lost nothing in the war. Undefeated. Just administering a one-sided beating. Now we see Gonzalo Lira was a liar. He led the Putin puffing doing drugs all night. Getting off. Not so much fun now. Ukraine is going to go after the Russian disinfo agents.

Yes, but still...

A military coup in Russia could be a good thing... if somebody competent enough to lead the military takes up the role of actually leading, instead of merely pretending to lead.

Then again, it could be a bad thing, too... if somebody on the CIA's payroll ends up at the top.

FSB never got the (absolutely necessary, especially now) thorough cleaning of all the CIA lice it has been infested with since Yeltsin, so I definitely wouldn't be backing anybody being backed by the FSB.

A crisis, or an opportunity? Or both?
