As rumors surrounding Vladimir Putin’s health continue to mount, a Kremlin insider claims that the Russian president is set to undergo an emergency medical procedure.
According to the insider Putin has deadly cancer and may be forced to give up control of the war in Ukraine for days as he is set for cancer surgery, and will reportedly nominate hardline former FSB chief Nikolai Patrushev to take temporary control of the invasion while he is under the knife.
This claim was first floated by the Telegram channel “General SVR” on Saturday. The channel is purportedly run by a former Russian Foreign Intelligence Service lieutenant and had earlier reported that Putin is battling abdominal cancer.
According to General SVR, doctors have told Putin that he must undergo surgery. The procedure will likely take place before May 9, a Daily Mail report added. SVR also claimed that the surgery was originally scheduled for the second half of April but was delayed.
The Gateway Pundit commented further:
Guess what? The United States Intelligence Community also has weighed in and reportedly believes that some dark days lie in store for Vladimir. Their source? Open Source media. In other words, the alleged Russian General posting on Telegram. If you are a U.S. tax payer and wonder what the Intel Community is doing with your hard earned dollars you now have a partial answer–they are reading social media. Unclassified by the way until they slap a TS on a document that they are sending to Dementia Joe passing on the Telegram gossip. Farberov and Simko-Bednarski did not stop there in doing their bit to build a propaganda narrative. They also reported:
Putin, 70, whose sickly appearance and uncharacteristically fidgety behavior in public have recently raised questions about his health, has been rumored to suffer from cancer and a host of other serious maladies, including Parkinson’s disease. . . . The video follows reporting from Russian investigative outlet The Project, which — in a sizeable report on the strongman’s vigor — claimed he has been seen by a cancer doctor 35 times in recent years. Putin has become so paranoid about his health, the outlet claimed, he has even turned to unconventional, and barbaric, therapies. Putin is said to bathe in the blood extracted from deer antlers, which are hacked off while they are growing and still full of fresh blood, the outlet said. The sickening “antler baths” are an alternative therapy in the Altai region of Russia, which borders Khazakstan and Mongolia. Believers say the baths improve the cardiovascular system and rejuvenate the skin, The Project explained.
The New York Post is not one of the linchpins of the media establishment (it’s story about the Hunter Biden laptop was censored by Facebook and Twitter) but it is still susceptible to being a willing vessel to feed the American public monstrous lies about Putin and Russia. For what purpose? The propaganda masters in charge of this Covert Action appear to be losing their mojo. They tried and failed to convince the public that Putin is a madman hell-bent on conquering the world. They are failing to sustain the lie that Ukraine is prevailing over the dastardly Russians. Looks like the new playbook is to mingle the crazy narrative with the sickly man scenario. What else do you call a President who bathes in the “blood extracted from deer antlers?” Maybe this is a crafty CIA plot to enlist PETA (you know, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) in the hate Putin club. PETA may not care that Ukrainian soldiers are being ground into dust by the Russian military machine, but by God they give a shit if Putin is cutting antlers from Bambi and draining the blood. The NY Post reporters also claim that Putin is looking sickly. Really? Does this look like a sick man?
