Putin told reporters in Geneva on Wednesday, political freedoms in Russia in comparison to the U.S. appear to be equally restricted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople went into U.S. congress with political demands. 400 people are now facing criminal charges,\u201d he explained. \u201cThey are facing prison terms of up to 20, maybe 25 years. They are called home grown terrorists.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Putin called out Biden for Jan 6th hoax.<br \/>Tucker Carlson says FBI was involved.<br \/>GOP Rep.
