in the. 9 here in russia, the i've only lived here a few months, but i wanted to tell you what fascinates me about russia and shared the stories of other foreigners who lived here. like jay, who worked as a chef and now raises godes and makes cheese in the countryside. like chess who has been granted political asylum because he's being persecuted by the f b. i like an american family. that recently moved to russia with 6 children. the year we are happy to be here. this is my friend joe. a few months ago he immigrated to russia with his large family. now i'm on the way to visit him. i want to find

out why he decided to move here and how he likes it in russian to how you doing pretty good. the joe is an i t program manager. he worked in many large companies including microsoft, but he gave up everything and moved to russia with his wife and 6 children. and now they're about to have a 7. so apparently they had a very good reason to relocate. did he talk you interested? no, i think to be honest, we 1st reach the same conclusion. some states have had issues where they've come in and they've removed the child from here because they're claiming the child's being abused by not being able to think it was uh, is 6 states in less than 6 months past these laws that even a 5 year old kid can be taken away from their parents and take them to the hospital and shop a lot. so yeah, that's just the reality waves of and people ask us okay,

well, i mean like, is it ramped and is it happening to like everybody? have you been threatened with that? no, i'm not an idiot. don't wait around for this stuff to continue to progress because that's what's been going on for the last several decades. a lot of people with traditional values wouldn't take the agenda, right? they wouldn't. okay. i know we don't have a flash, a lot of traditional teachers anywhere. the flushing traditional switches out of the system that's filling it up with cuckoos. and these people like child stressed out that being bullied, so they send them home with where maybe your upset cuz you're actually the wrong gender. you like maybe you are actually just something people going on here. and they actually condition is chosen to do that. and so it's, it's going on and the amount of schools that have had secret classes one recently where they were having classes after school every day for a year. and they were actually, they weren't doing art at all. oh,

actually transgender crossing. this is the, the article as well sir, who you, these parents to children were attending on clock. literally this complete in version. we're perfectly fine shaming you if you're a straight white male is you have a lot of kids, people to walk up to my wife, make rude comments are available, say the menu, the things. if you didn't hear, you know, nobody could criticize the room. i'm coming out to me, children who will behavior is let me see what she says are you out of your mind and she starts playing into me. everybody's terrified, there's no freedom of speech in america anymore. you say something really mean about would you be the organization or anything like that? oh, you'll be putting docks for life. people had to down. no joke. i took a picture of christmas day because we had a boy's hand. this is like the most traditional in the angle where all the the boys had. and then there i be decked with bays and rose berries and somebody

tag this animal rights activist group. put out my name, where i worked, who the phone numbers to like, oh, my complaint with the treasurer for eating a pigs. had brought it here in russia. you can say what you think were out loud and the most relieving thing in the world. you actually are like me, this is actually really enjoyable. you can make jokes about this sort of stuff. nobody would you know, cancel you or try to dock to or anything like that. talk about it. it was fine. whenever you're moving on the what about health care you, are you all worried about getting like the kids to the doctor or because oh okay. well i told him, i mean this goes at the end of last year and i had to go get a surgery. i was just like, oh great, awesome. so like, this is over for us because i'm going to drop, you know, tens of thousands of dollars on this,

which i would have definitely in the states. i have like one of the best orthopedic surgeons. like 5 star level hospital room, 1300 bucks. yeah. my says pregnancy ended up being on the case today and i think the bill was a $100000.00. we got a big discount on it because it was self pay. it was like $80000.00 and then we had the medical sharing, but still it was like, intense was the looses equity russian see, are you a little russian more tables? one of his fest with the high chance we look at in the morning i'd make money, he'd say t. what were your thoughts before coming to russia with a special military operation and how did you feel? were you worried that there was going to be like more on the outskirts of moscow? are you i never yeah. no, i thought there was going to be a war and i didn't want to be sitting, you know, at home in the middle of kansas down the street from fort riley without the let me

just say that i feel a lot safer here, right? than i do in america, if actual world war 3 breakdown much, much better to be here. we don't have any kind of defense that could suit anything that i mean, right? something goes on over in the, in the states. it's over me. you know, i remember right before we left, we, uh, we heard reports, the russian nuclear sub just pops his head up right off the coast of dc. hey, we're right here, just so you know, don't forget that we're right here. so there's nothing that you're going to defend against. uh, this goes sideways for the whole world. hey, girls rush. so you love this house. what are some of the learning flooding?

the so we're on the way to meet somebody who is pretty famous here in russia. he's a farmer, an ex pat has been here since the 19 ninety's, so he shouldn't give us an interesting perspective on how things have changed here . one of the things he's most known for is cheats. so today, hoping that we can see some change production and get to meet some animals on his farm the tobacco it's good to meet another american. so various ideas always come. yeah, and the another yang of your story. go bill to go. all right, awesome. it's hard to believe now that j was a famous shift to even go to the roland. i used to run several restaurants,

and moscow was also a dare devil biker and radio host. but he gave it all up sort of submarine, which he had more in france and bought land in the countryside. then he built a house and moved. here was it. let's get in to garrett's one boil in 3 years. we'll have lead milk. i agreed and there we go. 3 years later the rope starts and what are you going to do, which are the leaders in milk? that's how j starting making cheese. and would you believe it? he became one of the most famous cheese makers in russia, although when he 1st came here, he couldn't imagine anything of the sort. free dang, shooting at the white nose and it was, there was little money for us. was in the hospital's wall in a barge and everything was really bad. you mean? i couldn't imagine that. another country surviving. i think americans wouldn't die hungry. i didn't leave here. right. away i came for 10 days and 20 days and 40 days,

761, a senior go go and more like home. i would start to go to other countries and i just want to get back home to russian. so it's home. i say to people, hey, if you're interested in a rush, you can leave it anywhere in the world. it's not easy here. i mean, of course, it's hard at some of the language of the alphabet, of the culture stem or shake hands under a doorway. the boxes, salt on the table. man, it's thousands of them. i don't believe in them. i think divine touch wouldn't because it's like a habit. i asked jay if he's afraid to stay in russia after all, our countries have a very troubled relationship. the us embassy regularly urges people to leave, but this is what happened before when birth or the 16th june was probably the garcey. there was not j. c, a to communist room, full draining the games on the tv. they were the ones writing the programs write

better than read was a lot of it was the anybody you a long here was economy. anybody out of the variety of was calling is like this never stuff. the russians are killed tv, maybe trump, for president or hillary clinton when they linked or e mails. it's all the russians form and how many elections have we got in june, right. how many o? as in session nations of elected officials, have we actually done re weighed war against the bank because they weren't in harbor lands, which are really, are things that the russians available. right? when really ration really like the biggest brands. i don't understand that at all. jay's business is going well and things have been going particularly well since a europe imposed sanctions banning in ports of cheese into rush and j as in suffering from the new sanctions either or so is the

o. thank if it's possible extinguishing to wait. tabasco sauce made in the us. the sanctions are failed. ok. what's the address? yeah, well, i think the same colors. same ice cream. you know, the oil you made in the usa, even j will confirm sanctions and russia have failed. he ordered this on amazon, which is why i'm always ordering things. a j had to take his car to the garage today for an oil change and i've decided to go with them. i want to see what car service is like in the russian hinterland. the

holiday season apollo's, we decided to get well and truly into the festive series. then comes a real winter wonderland. i can no place fits of discussion better than the northern russian of lake of cordelia. right? the

oh, i sort of get salt. salt. salt in the road. salt milk. yeah. so the milk? no guys really? me right of here. yeah, the guy said pollution 1st. no that should list. um you got it. you got it. all right, let's see if we can 1st james car. let's wrap it for sure to stop far. looks like we're good to look at that. a look at this beautiful villas to wow, look the key up, the hill is amazing. place here,

this is a beautiful village by the way, a lot of people in america think these villages are just like falling apart. so lot of your neighbors come and they buy choose from you. yeah, go buy cheese or master class. they learn how to make jeans. oh, they come and learn how to make the james dropping his car off for an oil change. this is a russian brides look at that. doesn't really look too much different than an american garage. they find out the middle of the country, so he'll bring home 3 years. we're really not. sure. ok. is there any upgrades or warning rooms for you? that's really what do you pay for oil change day and like i'm dollars 10 dollars, 10 dollars. oh, of maybe 5 dollars, 5 dollars. is it a good? let's go. the time is coming to try jay's cheese. he has

a small shop and many kinds of different cheese j says there are 50 varieties in total. so it's just part of the natural process. every day, turn it over, the rubber down or talk to good morning to next week. this is romano like was really good. this is this is called to tell you the garden. so dried tomatoes, bell peppers speaking metal. metal, crappy with russian shockley. yes. i'm a sick man, but you know, don't hold it against the palm, heading to the northern capital of saint petersburg in american lives there whom the f. b. i has been hunting for 18 years. he's on interpose a red list. they tried to extradite him to the united states from different

countries, 4 times now lives in russia. i've been following his story for a while, and i can finally, personally ask why the f b i as after him. i'm in st. petersburg, russia right now. my 1st time and it's probably the coldest day since i've arrived in russia. i am feeling it to my bones right now. the pills are due to how you doing it here. so in the role of the frozen as well, you can feel anything. oh no you came. i think you brought this weather with you man. yeah, i'm not good either. so i don't know if you can tell me a little bit about yourself. like uh what, what made you decide to come to russia? i received the asylum and so far as i know, the next man after his note to get it. and this american us embassies and 4 countries that come after me is wild. and so with a couple of theories,

the one that most people come to me 1st is like, oh, there's just a bunch of bureaucratic mistakes, but there's no way they rate it. our house in 2002 in cyprus. they have a huge fall, and my wife, uh, they've interrogated me. they visited me and vote here in prison. personally, i came, they tried to make deals. and also america, microsoft, i cover the middle east and africa and i had several intelligence agency trying to recruit me to work for them. and when i kept saying no, they wanted to make an offer. i couldn't refuse and they have a history that to and is approvable, know because when they try and recruiters not like they leave behind a business card and say, hey, you know, i'm from the intelligence agencies, but very clearly there are 3 recruitment of drums. why is it that the f b i is looking for you on the website? they say that i legally retain my son, which is not because i had custody of my son anywhere is here to lived in europe the and you can prove this. yeah, i do all this and then they said they told the newspaper, the indictment, they said that i physically kidnapped them, of the problem was i was in the united states and neither was the,

the just 2 months prior. the same judge who set this whole thing up, put him on a plane using police to return to me because he was visiting his mother for the summer in the us and she didn't want to return them. and the judge said, nope, he said the police take away, put them on a plane and then he the same judge, basically the foundation for get up and that whole thing's been dismissed, but the feds weren't dismissed there in the and he's, he's your strongest witness in this case and he is, he's 27 now. yeah. he's done news interviews on american television saying that he was never kidnapped and as all the fires because when the guy does the sort of things, the only thing is ever fixed. it has massive publicity and i work the social media, sometimes the dancer you're going after doing sort of thing. yeah, i'm a 49 year old bad man, but that's options for me to work. right? yeah, i have you know, steve to these by now and that's how it works. i had to order 2 police officers to

physically movies my mother and put me on a plane back to my dad hollis. and i'm not this is actual insanity. chad son now lives in the caribbean and he's still on the missing childrens list. and chat is still on the wanted list. were you ever contracted by the government? no, no, never. do you think maybe and this is just me being curious, do you think that perhaps uh, something that you may have worked on for one of these companies might be a reason for any of this. i, i never worked on anything that was secretive or anything sort of that i have built software that's been in the space station. it is used by the government, right? but it is communication software. when i moved to russia in early 2001, i married into a family and lived with a family who worked in a military aviation factory. and they didn't like suite the forest or the thing. and it's not like they could possibly get access to military technology. they were

engineers, they had of coverage. so these were close family members, and we lived in the same household for many years. and they had basically, i guess, wouldn't america be called top secretary ok. and it became pretty evident that somebody in the american halogens agency had some kind of white dream that thought i could somehow blackmail my family and give me information. okay. it was never going to happen. we never discuss this stuff. my family would never give me information about that. i would never ask. russian may have, and i don't have to if it is, but maybe they offer me the asylum because i believe russian was far about more case my case than i do. right. and maybe it was a thank you for you know, hey, you had the chance to turn on us and you didn't, i don't know. do you feel safe, ever returning to the united states of america? no. and you feel safe here? oh, absolutely. it is extremely secure. right, americans ask me all the time if that covers that yours to be safe and americans to be more safe in the city is here. they are whole. i say this philosophy, the slides back home i had a concealed weapons permit. i the carry,

hang on with me everywhere i went. and since i've been here, people asked me what about your gun rights now? what's the need for it? you don't need a gun. there is an american to say that that's really amazing to try are expected. i have a friend from new york and he lives here and he says he got marked on average 3 times a year in new york. it's just, it's really crazy and i filled the metro's here and people like where the people who. yeah, where's the feet? drop out, i'd see the videos that all the time and they always ask the same thing. like me chat has passed a lot of strange questions on tick tock. recently he was asked if it's true that russia had run out of tomato. the american media often writes nonsense stories about russian and people believe them. so we decided to drive to the market and see for our center supposed month. oh wow, look at this place. funny. uh, on the fish. uh, you'll see the pictures, but yeah,

yeah, i think i used to be on your own. yeah. yeah. yeah. i've come to spy on your final product to everybody as a they have to made it here or not. they said russian can i get them in and let's take a look. i think there's okay, so tell me does that look like the tomato it in the tomato? i like yeah. tomatoes, tomatoes, tomatoes, all the way down to me is tomatoes, tomatoes. that all the way down to man estimate is man is yeah. so it's all 1st of all. look at these because i've seen this based on uh on already was good luck. jos. look right over here. a look at the gigs. is that amazing? got $32.00 boys,

$1.00 and $1.00 of the belly. okay. we're good. i keep counting kids. i'm so paranoid because of america and america, if somebody would have like, tucked them into their jacket and walked toward. yeah. these are very high swings. papa has to be careful not to push you too high. okay. your wife was telling me when she was on the forms for like mothers and america. yeah. that they talk about not letting their children, i guess not giving their children a gender. oh yeah. that's so weird. yeah, i mean it's not like, yeah it's, it's amazing really in america, not all, but it seems like a small force and i'd say are just brain i've never been felt safe for my entire life than living here. goes. feels very safe by people help us around the city all the time. and myself parts there everywhere. i mean, i've never had so much stuff for my kids to do ever in america the,

the kids when they're like by themselves and you like panic, like where's their parents? somebody's gonna take the kids from the area that i haven't given city to. they had a part for a kid called world of fun, thousands of people over a decade, thousands of kids. it was being run by peter range. and they were just taking kids and it was never getting reported on like these kids are just disappearing for these theme parks. that's why i'm talking about any news aids here. just save. yeah . in some ways i feel like i've already fulfilled my dream. i've gotten them out right now. it is just about stabilize. right. so that, that to me is the most important people like want to talk about, you know, oh, it's a, it's a bad thing to do something if you're running away and i get those comments on social media all the time. why did you run? mm. i didn't run i left, you know that this horrible thing that happened with the crocus, right? everybody is like calling me from the states. hey, are you okay huh. and i'm like,
