The ICC has been investigating mass killings in crackdowns overseen by Duterte when he served as mayor of the southern Philippine city of Davao and later as president. Estimates of the death toll of the crackdown during Duterte’s presidential term vary, from the more than 6,000 that the national police have reported up to 30,000 claimed by human rights groups.
I remember hearing about the situation with Duterte a long time ago. It must have been hell to put up with a government which seemed determined to destroy some of its weakest. I hope things are better in the Phillipines now, and continue to get better!
Krasnov pledges to bring prices down in panel 1. He has a bunch of MAGA voting for him in panel 2. In panel 3, he slaps tariffs on and off. In panel 4 we see him self-congratulatory while stonks go down brrrrrr.
“I will immediately bring prices down starting on Day 1,” he said on Aug. 15, for example. “Starting the day I take the oath of office, I will rapidly drive prices down,” he promised later that same month.
He backed away from that last month.
This is what Murca needs. More lies and long cons. Murca was lied to, and Krasnov only needed 1/3 of them to fall for it.

Everything's normal. This is what you voted for, Murca!
ETA For those following these comments:
Hanlon's razor is an adage or rule of thumb that states: Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.
Given the track record of those in the current ruling class of Murca, I agree with those comments which suggest we can exchange the placement of "malice" and "stupidity".
Krasnov just DGAF about the plebs who voted for him, at best. At worst, he's actively destroying the economy, democracy, and the plebs he lied to.
You're just not eating enough carrots, my dude. You got measles due to carrot deficiency.
