How to save Russia from uproar
С Россией кончено.
На последях
Ее мы прогалдели, проболтали.
Пролузгали, пропили,
проплевали...
прогалдеть - потерять, лишиться чего либо в тщетных криках ссорах... и после остаться в шумном хаосе.
talk away = проболтать imho...

дословно "галдеть" переводится как clamour, din, но теряется смысл этой фразы.

Let's not lose our Russianness in the hubbub
The author is saying let's not lose our culture in the plethora of Western influences flooding in. "Russianness" captures his intent. I picked "hubub" because it sort of captures the meaning, and because it sounds good next to "Russianness."
