It's clear that Putin has underestimated Prigozhin at every turn. Even last night, he was far too slow to respond. I think that he just refused to believe that his "friend" would turn on him this way, and he had an unwarranted view of his own invincibility.

When this started yesterday, I wouldn't have given Prigozhin a 25% chance of success. Now, I feel like it's 50-50.

Now thats interesting. Putin couldn’t not supply his most successful group at the front of the highly valued Battle of Bakhmut. This is an interesting possibility.



Man I forgot about impacts to Syria and Africa, probably most pertinently Syria.

Just got in from a long hitch from Tokyo and check my phone to see 30+ pages from last I checked. Can someone give me the bullet points of what happened or is it just trolls again? I know Prigozhin has a warrant for his arrest in Russia but anything else? Thanks for catching me up y’all.

If any Wagner are returning from Syria, they are doing with the support of the Russian military in Syria, as the Russian MoD controls the bases there.

In other words, if it's true, it means that Wagner has conquered or co-opted the Russian military units in Syria.

Wagner rebelled and has taken Rostov on Don and is marching on Moscow...read the thread...wild stuff in motion.

Wagner appears to be on a drive from Rostov, potentially having pulled a lot of equipment from Russian occupied eastern Ukraine.

Putin has publicly recognized the effort.

Potentially, Putin on a plane to St. Petersburg from Moscow.

Does not appear to be a drill (comedic use of “drill”)

Others will add more details. I had the same catch up you did just this morning.

During the bad old days of the USSR, the populace always knew that a Soviet Premier had died, because the State TV would start broadcasting the “Swan Lake” ballet.

Yes, I’m that old.
