On September 18 the U.S. announced that they are shutting down USAID activities in Russia at a request of the Russian government. All operations will have to stop by October 1.

In a short statement, the Department of State celebrated accomplishments of AID's work in the country over the last 20 years and promised to continue cooperation with Russian NGOs.

The reason for Kremlin's actions are clear. As domestic unrest continues in Russia, the regime is looking for ways to silence the increasingly vocal civil society.

Organizations that USAID has been supporting observe elections, investigate corruption and human rights abuses, and expose many other problems that have driven tens of thousands to protest during the last year.

I wonder if Putin will immediately begin to consolidate power? If that happens the question is, Stalin or Romanov?

I'll take Romanov.

Stephanie Romanov, that is.

I doubt that USAID was in the way of Putin's consolidation of power. I'm pretty sure he's already there.

Ah, Lila Morgan, I'm not sure the show ever appreciated how truly mattressable she was.

Kudos to Wesley, huh? Maybe he didn't shag often, but he made up for it with shaggin' Lila.
