Cowardly layabouts in black caps are running around our offices again.
Searches are underway in 30 regions. In Moscow, the door to the ACF office (Anti-Corruption Foundation) has been broken down for the fourth time in the past two months; it’s practically routine by now. And everyone is discussing not even the raid itself (everything is obvious — Putin is still stamping his feet), but the cleaner’s hard work in this video.
It’s impossible to work like this. They just keep trampling everything all day long.
There’s hardly anything left in our offices to steal anyway.
And there you have it: in Rostov, they took apart a laptop they had already taken apart last time:
The “ACF case” is completely fabricated, and no one is even trying to hide that anymore. But 112 investigators for especially important cases have to keep themselves busy somehow. In that sense, the most remarkable thing about this wave of raids is the official statement from the Investigative Committee. It’s magnificent.
It’s like some kind of wheel of samsara.
They blocked our account so they could send 140,000 rubles (about 1,400 euros) to it from a nonexistent Spanish company. They used that to label us “foreign agents.” Now they’re carrying out raids on the grounds that we receive money from foreign sources.
How does it go again — “quietly, I carry on a conversation with myself”?
Soon, it seems, after seizing our documents, they’ll start hiring random people to work for us. Then they’ll publish exposés from those people. They’ll make payments from the accounts and then investigate the purpose of those payments.
And then they’ll reward one another and hand out early promotions for a job well done.
Technically, our work has become more difficult right now — I won’t lie: we really need your help. But let me assure everyone once again: this will not stop us. With every new raid, every staff member at the headquarters or the ACF, every volunteer, understands even more clearly that we are doing the right thing. And those who are against us are enemies of Russia.
