Model, ultranationalist activist, and State Duma candidate plans anti-Clinton rally outside US embassy in Moscow

Maria Katasonova, a State Duma candidate and pro-Kremlin activist known for her good looks and strong criticisms of Russian dissidents, says she will stage a protest outside the US embassy in Moscow tomorrow against Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign. Katasonova, who's made visits to separatist-held eastern Ukraine and wrapped herself in the rebel flags, has published Facebook posts in Russian and English, using the hashtags #StopHillary and #CrookedHillary, to promote the rally. In characteristic fashion, she also posed for several “glamour shots” in a t-shirt bearing an unflattering image of Clinton, accompanied by the phrase "Crooked Hillary.”

On Facebook, Katasonova lists the "seven sins of Hillary Clinton,” which include geopolitical problems like "the new Cold War" between Russia and the US, and the Arab Spring and subsequent “chaos in the Middle East.” Katasonova's list also mentions more abstract “sins,” such as Clinton's “total lies” and her ability to “steal the future from all of us.” The Russian activist also blames Clinton for “global terrorism” and threatening to establish a “dictatorship of the minority” in the United States. “The evil must not win,” Katasonova begs her readers.

Maria Katasonova has acted as the youth coordinator for the ultranationalist People's Liberation Movement, headed by State Duma deputy Yevgeny Fyodorov, for whom Katasonova has also served as an aide.
