A docudrama is set to be shown at the Newseum in Washington, D.C. The film has been created by a known documentarian. The film has drawn protests and threats of lawsuits against various venues. Hmmm. What's going on here? Will mr. Putin's name be attached somewhere to the controversy? Apparently so. Mr. Bill Browder, a former investor in things Russyan, is at the heart of the controversy as his name and reputation are both discredited in the film. Mr. Magnitsky's widow is also involved as the crux of the film is a disagreement over the death of her husband while in Russyan FSB custody. There's also the issue of the U.S.'s Magnitsky Act which imposed sanctions on Russyan businesses and certain Russyan individuals.
Reminds me of certain facts explained the the book, "The Disciples", which chronicled post WW II activities in Berlin where Russyan troops began spying on their own allies before the ink was dry on Germany's surrender.
Lake Tahoe, California's Alpine playground, is anchored on the west shore by Homewood/Tahoma, straddling two counties:Placer and El Dorado. The mayor of Tahoma posts information related to the area and items of interest to residents and visitors alike. Its goal is to be informative, humorous, and timely. Hope you enjoy the site.
