Russian President Vladimir Putin
The time-phased photos are shown below to show Vladimir Putin's face over the last 22 years or so. Pay attention to his eyebrows, especially the outer third to half or so. Thinning of the outer eyebrow hair is a telltale sign of hypothyroidism and in our opinion, it is unmistakable. There are obviously other theories about Putin's behavior and/or illness(es) and these not necessarily be mutually exclusive.

About the 1:48 mark in the video it is represented that Senator Marco Rubio Ranking Minority member of the US Senate’s Intelligence Committee tweeted the following:
“I wish I could share more,but for now I can say it’s pretty obvious to many that something is off with #Putin
He has always been a killer,but his problem now is different & significant
It would be a mistake to assume this Putin would react the same way he would have 5 years ago”
We found this interview dating 2022 February 25 fascinating on many levels. This video seems to offer 2 sources of information which suggest Vladimir Putin is not acting normally.
We were very impressed with each of these ladies and found former Secretary Condoleezza Rice to be very credible with respect to her individual knowledge of Vladimir Putin.
About the 2:13 mark "He [Rubio] met with Putin at least a half a dozen times. You describe him [Putin] differently today too. Why? - Faulkner
"I met with him many times, and this is a different Putin. ......... about 2:37 He [Putin] was always calculating and cold, but this is different. He seem erratic." ....... About 3:05 "So he's descending into something that I personally haven't seen before." ....... About 3:44 " Don't know where he is in that dark world." - Condoleezza Rice
Staying out of the politics and the war itself, Senator Rubio and former Secretary Condeleezza Rice do seem to be describing changes in Putin the man and these could, could be further evidence of thyroid disfunction.
