Putin's transport guy gets the boot and then...kaboom? Sounds like a job for Detective Marge!

Mmm Mystery...

Alright folks Homer Simpson here reporting live from my couch! So this Russian transport dude Roman Starovoit gets the ol' heave ho from President Putin faster than I can say 'Mmm donuts!' Then BAM! He's found in his car with a boo boo from a gunshot. They're saying it's a 'self inflicted' kinda thing...but something smells fishier than Bart's gym socks!

Kursk: Krusty's Komedy of Errors?

Turns out before being Putin's main transportation man Starovoit was the big cheese in the Kursk region. Now Kursk that's near Ukraine and apparently some funny business was going on with funds meant to ya know keep those pesky Ukrainians out. Accusations are flying around like free donuts at a police convention! His successor ended up charged with embezzling funds 'doh!'

Blame it on the War!

This firing and alleged suicide comes at a time when Russia's transport system is about as smooth as a ride in Mr. Burns' antique car. Aviation's running low on spare parts and the railways are drowning in debt. This war in Ukraine is really messing with things! As I always say 'trying is the first step towards failure.'

New Guy Who Dis?

So who's the new guy in charge of this big mess? Some fella named Andrei Nikitin. Putin even posed for a photo op shaking hands with him! Kremlin says Nikitin's the best man for the job...or at least the only one willing to take it! But let's be honest a job is a job and as Marge always says 'Homer I don't want you driving around without a job!'

Digitizing...D'oh gitizing?

Nikitin's big plan? To 'digitize' Russia's transport industry. I don't even know what that means! Is he gonna turn all the trains into computer programs? Sounds like a job for Lisa! He is gonna be working to reduce cargo bottlenecks and ensure smoother cross border flows of goods. Smooth is good. Easier beer shipments would make him a hero in my book!

The Truth is Out There...Probably with Aliens!

So was it suicide? Was it foul play? Was it aliens? Your guess is as good as mine! All I know is this whole thing is more confusing than the plot of Itchy and Scratchy! And that's saying something! Until then 'Mmm donuts!'
