This is hilariously funny.
It was my wife's birthday, so I took her to France for a few days.
And the crooks at LifeNews immediately published airport surveillance footage leaked to them by FSB officers (Russia’s security service), and also publicly announced a reward: 50,000 rubles for anyone who filmed Navalny enjoying a luxurious vacation abroad.
And today, they finally published their sensational exposé (they had to distract attention from yesterday’s Peskov story somehow):
It gives a detailed account of how I was devouring the most expensive dishes in all the city’s Michelin-starred restaurants, and not alone either, but in the company of certain “members of the business and political elite,” who were supposedly sitting at nearby tables at first and then “welcomed me into their circle.”
As proof of these facts, Life published a video secretly filmed by their “citizen reporter”:
Well then. Truly a great journalistic scoop.
And today, the entire ACF (Anti-Corruption Foundation), after unprecedented efforts, finally tracked down the villain who shamelessly filmed my walk through Rouen, France, in secret. Obviously, I was just going from one Michelin-starred restaurant to another.
The villain repented and gave us the full version of his video. Here it is:
Here he is, that mysterious citizen reporter.
We were already driving through beautiful France to the airport in a rental car when someone sent me a screenshot of the reward offer. We laughed and decided to stop in the first city on the way—which was Rouen—and film ourselves there in front of some recognizable historic landmark.
So we stopped, went to the main square, recorded it, sent it to Kira, and then another person forwarded the video to Life under their own name.
And those lying fraudsters, in turn, invented an entire story about restaurants, foie gras, and “elite representatives” at nearby tables.
But the funniest part is that the crooks at LifeNews cheated us on the money too! The person who sent them the video received not 50,000 but 10,000 rubles.
A direct violation of the Civil Code section on Public Promise of a Reward. So we’re waiting for the remaining 40,000 rubles, and if it doesn’t arrive, we’ll sue as well.
We’re sending the money to the election campaign fund.
Please share the video widely. Let everyone know that the disgusting Gabrelyanov and his media outlets lie always and about everything.
