An American 'Putin propagandist' was jailed in Ukraine. Tucker Carlson

Gonzalo Lira may just become the far right's Brittney Griner.

The YouTuber and contributor to the far-right Zero Hedge finance and
news blog remains imprisoned in Ukraine after his arrest earlier this
year on charges of disseminating pro-Russian propaganda during
wartime. Fans of Lira describe him as a journalist, while his critics
describe him as an apologist for Vladimir Putin and accuse him of
spreading conspiracy theories about shadowy American biolabs
supposedly hidden in the country (among other topics). In videos, he
has praised the supposed tactical brilliance of the Russian military
offensive, denied massacres of civilians committed by Russian forces
and doxxed western journalists covering the war from the ground in
Ukraine.

"Gonzalo Lira, Sr. says his son has died at 55 in a Ukrainian prison, where
he was being held for the crime of criticizing the Zelensky and Biden governments. Gonzalo Lira was an American citizen, but the Biden
administration clearly supported his imprisonment and torture. Several weeks ago we spoke to his father, who predicted his son would be killed."

So in other words, he disagreed politically with Globohomo, so he was
jailed.

How "democratic".

"Tucker Carlson has reported that Russian propagandist Gonzalo Lira
has passed away from pneumonia while serving time in prison in
Ukraine"

If true, this does not indicate if he got medical services...if he had
Covid, etc. Dying from pneumonia at his age is not unusual.

jailed.

"Pro-Russian commentator remains in prison after attempting to flee
Ukraine while on bail "
