international community. he generally gets the top meetings he needs with world leaders, weighs in on global power through the powerful u.n. security council. he s even seen his popularity rise under donald trump. as putin is dubbed as a war criminal and seen as the ruthless dictator he is, it s important to note very little is new about his current actions which brings us to our special report for you right now on how putin built power, initially as a bureaucrat installed to win an election and then as a dictator who crushed any and all opposition to prevent free and fair elections during his on going reign. it was 20 years ago when kremlin insiders installed putin as a replacement to yeltsin and then he was deemed winner of an election after installed as the winner of that quasi preliminary results have been announced, vladimir putin has been elected president of
eastman. we ve seen the memos from other people who have this kind of quasi legal or at least bureaucratic strategy to go along with the insurrectionary strategy. they thought if they could delay the counting of the vote, there was something they were going to accomplish with regards to the actual counting of the votes and certification of it. but he s clearly worried that trump is going to ask the white house counsel s office to do something that is going to cause them all to resign, and so what is that? that s something we need to know. you know, at another point as he mentioned, he says i m very worried about the next 48 hours. why? what does he think is going to happen, right? this isn t just that he was appalled by the privately appalled by the insurrection, even though he s never blamed trump for it publicly, it s that he had some intimation that something menacing was coming down the pike. very well put and appreciate
