Following the reported murder of Russian opposition leader Alexey Navalny, a division within the Republican Party has emerged over the response to Vladimir Putin's actions. Some Republicans have been criticized for using Navalny's death to attack the American justice system, a move that critics argue plays into Putin's hands by undermining American institutions, exactly what Putin hopes for, courtesy of MAGA. Conversely, former Vice President Mike Pence has taken a firm stance, stating that there is no room in the Republican Party for apologists for Putin, emphasizing the need for the party to unequivocally condemn Navalny's murder and reject any support for Putin, in service to their cult leader.

Republicans using Putin’s murder of Navalny to criticize the justice system in America are doing EXACTLY what Putin hopes for. He murders his opposition leader while Republicans use it to tear down an American institution. A win-win for Putin, courtesy of MAGA.
Watch how one after the other, MAGA Republicans will refuse to just criticize Putin or simply condemn the murder of Navalny. Instead, they will use Putin’s murder of Navalny in service to their cult leader. https://t.co/ndGOdbay2I
