Everyone should be VERY careful believing anything coming out of that situation for the next little while.
We have two people who are well known for disinformation and social media manipulation here, and no independent Russian journalists on the ground to provide something credible.

Teasing out what is actually going on is not going to be easy.

Exactly.
Between him and Putin's well known penchant for such things, I would be very suspicious of everything coming out of that situation right now.

Hhhhmmm?

There is something oddly missing here in this thread.

Can't quite seem to put my finger on it.

The reported pullback of some of the Wagner troops (even a few would mean a whole lot) from Ukraine and the impact that could have on the counter offensive? Or that the Ruskies just issued an arrest warrant for one of their own commanders? I'd go on, but I'd run out of fingers...

I thought going tits up tonight means Putin is going to be utterly
defeated tomorrow. I guess a defeated Russia doesn't have to sink
into chaos, it can still remain stable like it was before the invasion.
The military objective of NATO and the U.S. is to weaken Russia not
to destroy it.

Putin wants to cancel Prigozhin's convict army, Prigozhin wants to cancel Putin's cancel of his convict army.

He just wants to keep his convict army, it is not a coup.

It is for all us who are not right wingers. Wanna keep playing the fear card, pal?...
Left wingers on TERB should be glad to know right wingers are
on their side when it comes to the Ukraine war though they may
not be as generous as the lefties in making donation to Zelensky.

A Russia in chaos is not good news.
A bit of chaos is good, however with their nukes...
If they start going on the international market "Nic Cage's Lord of War style" that could be a very bad thing. If they can hold on to them like they did when the USSR collapsed, it will be a good thing.
Quite frankly I wonder why Lil Kim in Best Korea hasn't been selling/giving nukes to some international vagina.

1/ Wagner claimed to have seized Rostov on Don, which is the HQ for the Russian Southern military command prosecuting the war in Ukraine
2/ Putin gave an address calling Wagner's actions treason
3/ Wagner head Prigozhin responded that Putin was wrong and that his actions were patriotic. He claims to be marching on Moscow for justice
4/ Wagner has seized key military facilities in Voronezh, setting an oil facility ablaze. Voronezh is just 300 miles south of Moscow
5/ Seems a coup attempt is under way in Russia. Scary
