I truly miss Mikhail Gorbachev. [View all]

He gave up a lot to make a better future for the Russian people....but FSB had other plans. Generations of real economic opportunity lost.

On edit...we. the world, lost, when he lost power.

And we, here , deal with our own version of the FSB under Trump.
