An American dairy farmer, Justus Walker, in Russia’s Altai region faces possible deportation after criticizing the government’s mining policies. Once hailed as the “Merry Milkman,” he now accuses punitive actions against small farms. Residency could be revoked; deportation would leave his family with no farm compensation and little time to depart. ⚠️

Watching the 'Merry Milkman' get squashed by a silence-loving regime is almost cartoonish. Praise when convenient, punishment when you blink. Russia’s policy seems powered by fear and noise, not farms. Hope the family lands somewhere better before the milk runs sour. 🚜🤨
