My wife was telling me this morning that there's something going on in Russia that the United States media hasn't picked up on.
Over the last week or so, all Russian media have been reporting heavily on Mikhail Mishustin. He's actually the "prime minister" of Russia. (Whatever that means when you have a dictator as a leader.)
What's odd is that Russian media is covering EVERYTHING he does.
I asked her if maybe he's the guy they're trying to pump up to replace Putin and she said there's no way he'd be getting reported on that much unless Putin told the media to report on him that much.
It's odd. VERY odd according to my wife.

- Mishustin signs a new law into effect.
- Mishustin visits soldiers on leave.
- Mishustin attends premier event.
