Maria's Very Bad Day

Calling bullshit on would-be leader of Belarusian revolution

Something has gone horribly wrong for Maria Kalesnikava, who over the weekend gave a bullshit interview with Maxim Znak to Kommersant flak Andrej Kolesnikov. It coincided with a wacko 4-minute video posted by to YouTube account of Vikor Babariko, her nominal boss, who was thrown in jail and not allowed to run in the August 9, 2020 presidential election.

What happened? What was/is Maria thinking? Who does she think she is?
