🐻 “A disservice” , Or the fight against the Communist Party of the Russian Federation in Moscow On the morning of July 2, law enforcement officers detained Igor Sukhanov, candidate for Moscow City Duma deputy from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation. The reason was the alleged dissemination of prohibited information on social networks. On the same day he was found guilty of committing a crime under Part 1 of Art. 20.3 Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation. The court imposed a fine of 1.5 thousand rubles on him. Let us recall that in 2019, Igor Sukhanov ran for elections to the Moscow City Duma from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation in district No. 40. Then he took second place , receiving 11 thousand 718 votes from Muscovites against 13 thousand 280 votes from Tatyana Batysheva from United Russia, who became a deputy. Third place went to Alexander Mikhailovsky from A Just Russia (3 thousand 585 votes). Now Sukhanov is running in constituency No. 39, where his main rival is United Russia member Rodion Gazmanov, the son of People's Artist of the Russian Federation Oleg Gazmanov. Apparently, the authorities are not sure that Rodion Olegovich can defeat a communist in a fair fight, and therefore decided to do a “disservice” to the musical child by raising the issue of registering Igor Sukhanov in the elections. Let us recall that earlier the head of the department for protest work of the Moscow City Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, candidate member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Pavel Ivanov was recognized by the Ministry of Justice as a foreign agent, which prevented him from participating in the elections to the Moscow City Duma 2024. After receiving a new “label”, he was also deprived of his powers as a municipal deputy of the Basmanny district. 📌 Help . Igor Vladimirovich Sukhanov (born 1964) – in 1986   graduated from the Kostroma Higher Military Command School of Chemical Defense. After graduating from college, he served in the USSR Armed Forces in various positions. In 1987, as a company commander, he participated in the liquidation of the consequences of the accident at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. For the performance of his official duty he received a government award, the medal “For Military Merit”. From 1988 to 1993, he served in the Moscow Military District as an officer in the Directorate of the Chief of the Chemical Troops. He is the first secretary of the capital's local party branch of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation "Michurinskoe", a member of the Moscow City Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation , a candidate member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Russian Federation .

The latest banning was a case of someone revealing himself/herself to be some kind of NGO plant and a liar.

❗️❗️ Pezeshkian: Gov. intervention brings disaster to the stock market, market, and producers. What we are doing regarding the stock market is to restore stability and security to it. We won't compensate for the government's budget deficit from the stock market. #IranVotes2024 @PressTV

Pezeshkian sounds like a member of the Adam Smith institute.

❗️❗️ Jalili: The best plan is to involve people themselves in this grand national plan. If you involve people in managing energy consumption, then they will participate because they will feel its benefit. #IranVotes2024 @PressTV

❗️❗️Pezeshkian: The reason for the current situation (in the country) is incompetent, inexperienced and unqualified managers. #IranVotes2024 @PressTV

— 🇮🇷 Tonight's debate was a totally different story than yesterday Dr. Saeed Jalili was on fire. Completely different performance. He was assertive, dominant, and he aggressively questioned his opponent. Told Pezeshkian straight to his face that he is a liar, doesn't know what he's talking about, and that he isn't qualified to be President. Pezeshkian said very little in response. Mostly stumbled over his words and kept saying 'I've admitted from the beginning that I am no expert'. Whenever Jalili asked him 'What is your plan then?', he simply did not respond or evaded the question. Very weak look for Pezeshkian. It became clear that once Pezeshkian actually started talking about the CONTENT of his program, he knows absolutely nothing. As Jalili said: 'I am surprised, you know less than the average person on the street, you don't even know basic international relations'. Tonight was a massacre in terms of debate. Whether it will have an influence on the election, we'll have to see. @Middle_East_Spectator
