In 2019, Bryukhanova was nominated for the election of deputies of the Moscow City Duma at the VII convocation, but was not registered for participation by the election commission. In 2021, she participated in the elections to the State Duma of the VIII convocation in the Leningrad constituency in the north of Moscow.[1][3]

Shortly after the beginning of the full-scale war against Ukraine she and her colleague, Ekaterina Voropai, left Russia to Georgia.

In April 2023, a criminal case on charges of spreading “fakes” about the Russian army has been opened against Anastasia.[4] Due to extradition agreement between Russia and Georgia, she decided to emigrate again, this time to Germany. Voropai followed her suit shortly after. On the 21st of July, 2023, Bryukhanova was arrested in absentia by Moscow's Khoroshevsky District Court.[5]
