The Shocking Truth About Russia's Hidden Power Struggle - Jason Jay Smart [View all]

A civil war is unfolding inside the Kremlin—one where we only see from afar the smoke rising. It’s happening in silence, inside Putin’s own regime. This video reveals how Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) is quietly overtaking Vladimir Putin’s power structure, pushing aside the military and the elites. As Russian battlefield losses mount and the economy collapses, the real power shift is not happening in Ukraine—but in Moscow’s darkest corridors.

The FSB is no longer just enforcing Putin’s rule—it is becoming the regime as those whom Putin had trusted fail. With secret jails, black-site detentions, mass arrests of generals, and multi-billion dollar asset seizures, the FSB is transforming Russia into a fortress of fear. Military commanders are imprisoned, oligarchs are stripped of their assets, and information control extends beyond Russia’s borders. This is the internal coup Putin can’t stop—and the world can’t afford to ignore.

We break down:
-- FSB-led military purges and general arrests
-- Secret detention centers bypassing Russian courts
-- High-value asset seizures of oligarchs and ex-ministers
-- Shell company auctions under FSB control
-- Deep mafia-state integration and smuggling networks
-- Propaganda pipelines into Europe and the U.S.
-- Wartime profiteering by Kremlin-linked elites
-- Economic collapse driven by internal power struggle

This is no longer Putin’s Russia.
It’s the FSB’s fortress—and it’s cracking.
