Poopin' Putin


Listen Later

Putin's bodyguards collect his poop when he travels abroad and carry it back to Russia.

Ex-BBC journalist Farida Rustamova backed up their claims, saying a source told her that this has been practised since Putin first assumed power in 1999. Dailybeast: ...the poop briefcase travels abroad with the Russian delegation to ensure that their leader's feces do not fall into the wrong hands. Human waste carries genetic and lifestyle information that could reveal intimate details about Putin's health. Out of an abundance of caution, the feces is collected, deposited in said briefcase, and returned to the motherland. Reddit (comment): Putin on the Shitz.

When he eats like Marc Andreessen, they refer to the poopcase as "the nuclear football".

But the important question here is, which other oligarchs do this? I want to know that people like Marca and Thiel and Bezos and Koch see it as a status indicator to have to shit in a bucket every time they are off the grounds of the Compound.

I need this. I need them to be shitting in buckets all the time, "out of an abundance of caution."
