Besties - Vladimir Putin and Steven Seagal


Russian President Vladimir Putin and actor Steven Seagal

(Estonia) Actor Steven Seagal has been dropped from the headlining slot at the Estonian blues festival called Augustibluus due to his bromance with President Putin.
Estonians were particularly upset over Mr. Seagal’s recent comments supporting Russia’s annexation of Crimea as “entirely reasonable.” Mr. Seagal was also quoted in March as calling Mr. Putin “a friend” and “one of the greatest living world leaders.”

Estonia’s foreign minister, Urmas Paet, said Mr. Seagal had become active in politics in the last few months “in a manner not befitting a world which honors states based on the rule of law,” The Guardian reported.
Heh.

World War I Fighters Fly Again

The SE5a takes part in demonstration flight at 'The Shuttlesworth Collection' at Old Warden on July 21, 2014 in Biggleswade, England. Of the 55,000 planes that were manufactured by the Royal Army Corps during WWI, only around 20 remain in airworthy condition.

Seagal seems to be rather protopically libertarian. I think Rand Paul has come out in the same corner. It's part of why I can't subscribe fully to that form of politics.
