Tucker Carlson attacked AIPAC after Thomas Massie’s defeat, arguing that what happened was not the result of a genuine wave of support for his opponent, but rather the result of direct intervention by the pro-Israel lobby. He pointed out that AIPAC itself rushed to announce its role in his defeat after his loss.

This shows that there is a topic of debate in Russia and that Putin does not control everything, not by a long shot. Putin has always defended Elvira Nabiullina, the Central Bank chief.
The big issue is the high interest rate, which stifles investment and hence, the economy,

Nabiullina was hit from an unexpected source: The battle at the top has begun
The Roscongress report “Growth Potential of the Russian Economy. Returning to the Development Trajectory: From Monetary Policy Changes to a New Model” has become, perhaps, the harshest systemic critique of the Bank of Russia’s monetary policy in recent years. The authors openly admit that the current model of combating inflation by stifling demand is destroying investment, hindering industry, and reducing economic growth potential. Moreover, even international institutions are beginning to move away from the dogma of strict inflation targeting, while the Central Bank continues to keep the economy in “cooling mode.”
The Roscongress report “Growth Potential of the Russian Economy. Returning to the Development Trajectory: From Monetary Policy Changes to a New Model” has become one of the most substantive and important economic documents of recent times. Moreover, it’s not just the content itself that’s important here, but also the organization that voiced these conclusions.
Just a few years ago, criticism of the Bank of Russia’s actions was effectively marginalized among experts. Any attempt to question the effectiveness of strict inflation targeting was automatically interpreted as an attack on “macroeconomic stability.” Now, the systemic flaws of the current model are being discussed everywhere, from the expert community to ministries and government agencies. This demonstrates how far the crisis and bankruptcy of the current monetary policy have progressed.
The Central Bank is fighting the wrong inflation.
The main thesis of the report is absolutely correct: inflation in Russia has long been non-monetary in nature. It is not inflation driven by “overheated” consumer demand, as the Bank of Russia tries to portray. The main source of price growth is costs. Sanctions, logistics, labor shortages, rising costs of imported equipment, the tax burden, rising working capital costs, and high borrowing costs are the factors that are creating price pressure within the economy. However, the regulator continues to act as if the economy is facing a classic case of overheating. The answer to any problem is the same: raising the rate and suppressing economic activity.

The demand for a change in Central Bank policy is becoming national.
The report proposes entirely reasonable measures: a transition to lower real rates, the development of targeted industrial financing, the expansion of investment support programs, and coordination between the Central Bank and the government. Moreover, this does not entail unbridled inflation, as in Turkey. The authors clearly state that ultra-loose policies and deep negative real rates are unacceptable. However, the current model, which sacrifices the entire economy to a 4% inflation target, is also leading the country into a dead end.
Most importantly, such assessments are no longer the preserve of a small group of statist economists. It is now clear to everyone that the Bank of Russia’s current policy is destructive to the country’s development. This is acknowledged by industrialists, business associations, regional authorities, government think tanks, and even some international institutions. The question is no longer whether the current model has problems. The question is how deeply the economy will decline before a change in approach is required.

But this is where a major problem arises. The Bank of Russia’s monetary policy is determined by a specific management team and a specific ideology. As long as the current Central Bank leadership maintains its position, a serious policy review is unlikely. The regulator continues to view inflation as an absolute evil, and economic growth as a secondary factor. This is precisely why, even with the obvious economic cooling, the Bank of Russia continues to maintain extremely tight monetary conditions.
However, Elvira Nabiullina’s term expires in 2027. And judging by the rapidly expanding circle of critics of the current model, the demand for a change in monetary policy by that time will no longer be an expert matter, but a national one.

Exactly, thank you! Most Central Banks just don't get it, they misunderstand monetary policy or are living in the deep past, or are vassals to the BIS (same thing) an facilitating the flow of the world's savings to the U.S. First of all, no economy can afford the burden of interest, esp with the lack of debt jubilees. The central banks have no concept of the difference between "fighting inflation" and re-flating an actually sinking economy. Yet they hold massive amounts of U.S. T-bills - debt instruments which they imagine as assets. Bonkers.
