Well done to everyone who came. For a weekday evening, an enormous number of people turned out. It was great to see you all.
Here is my speech.

About 50 meters from the stage, unfortunately, you could barely hear anything at all, and there were several very accurate and important speeches.

And Kashin’s singing was an absolute masterpiece. There is, of course, video, but as people say after especially successful live performances by stars, “you had to hear it live.” Better yet, you had to see the faces of the people there at the moment he started singing. They say that somewhere in the back rows people were holding a gigantic inflatable saw, symbolizing the very purpose of the Kremlin riffraff in power. Yesterday it was a pleasure to be among people who are not afraid to openly challenge both the Kremlin riffraff and their enormous saw. Update. The saw from the rally:
