Are you guys checking out what is happening in Russia?
I am just reading about it now.
Armed rebels with the Wagner Group are moving north through Russian territory and appear to be heading for Moscow, according to multiple reports.
Wagner Group chief Yevgeny Prigozhin is leading what he calls a "march for justice" to oust Russia's military leadership. Overnight, the mercenary group's forces seized control of Russian military facilities in Rostov-on-Don, a city of more than a million people near the border with Ukraine. The seizure is significant — Rostov is home to the Russian military headquarters overseeing the military supply line fueling Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
Further Wagner troops are reported to be moving through Vorenezh Oblast, a city about 300 miles north of Rostov-on-Don. An intelligence update from the U.K. Ministry of Defense indicated Wagner units are "almost certainly aiming to get to Moscow."
"With very limited evidence of fighting between Wagner and Russian security forces, some have likely remained passive, acquiescing to Wagner," the Ministry of Defense said.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has vowed to put down the rebellion. In a televised address Saturday morning, Putin said the mutiny amounted to "a deadly threat to our statehood," vowing there will be "tough actions" in response.
"It is a blow to Russia, to our people," Putin said. "And our actions to defend the Fatherland against such a threat will be harsh."
Prigozhin, a longtime Putin ally, rejected the Russian president's accusations of treason and claimed his forces were fighting "corruption, deceit and bureaucracy" in the Russian military.

It is looking like the the coup at the end of the Soviet Union that tempoararily removed Gorbachew. But, the leader of Wagner says, it's the defense ministry they have their sites on. Interesting times.

It seems most of the Russian elites are fleeing Moscow. Putin and his PM reportedly left Moscow for St. Petersburg. Russian air force is doing periodic air attacks on the Wagner convoy.

I am not going to watch a nearly two hour video. But, the headline says that the leader of Wagner now wants Putin. That is not good.
Putin issued an arrest warrant for piggy yesterday so now he is taking his private army of 25,000 and is going to Moscow to overthrow the government.

That is what is happening. The Wagner Group is to Russia what the Foreign Legion is to France. I woould not want the Wagner Group getting nuclear codes.
Russian forces are blowing up bridges inside Russia. This is supposedly on the M4 freeway going from Rostov on Don to Moscow.

This started because the head of Wafner felt his troops were not getting the supplies and support they need.
The Kremlin is denying Putin has fled Moscow. But, there are reports his plane has been spotted leaving Moscow.
Supposedly it is over and Wagner ordered their troops to return to barracks. WTF?

The Wagner Group is populated by neo nazis. There should be no concessions.
From The Eppch Times.
The Belarus President's Office has said that Wagner mercenary group leader Yevgeny Prigozhin has agreed to stop the group's lightning-fast advance toward Moscow and to deescalate the situation, with Prigozhin confirming the news in a social media post.
Alexander Lukashenko, the president of Belarus and an ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, has reportedly held talks with Prigozhin, according to Lukashenko's press service.
The Belarussian president's office added that Lukashenko's talks with Prigozhin had Putin's blessing and that there's a draft agreement on the table that would provide security guarantees for Wagner fighters.
Russian state media TASS reported that a tentative deal has been reached that would halt Wagner's advance toward Moscow, which sparked a pledge from Putin to crush any insurrection.
Prigozhin confirmed in a statement on his Telegram channel that he has ordered his mercenaries to halt their march on Moscow and retreat to their field camps in Ukraine in order to avoid shedding Russian blood.
Who is Yevgeny Prigozhin and what is the Wagner Group?
Yevgeny Prigozhin was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia. Early in his life, he was a convict and owned a hot dog stand, but later branched out to operate fancy restaurants.
ABC News reported:
In 2010, Putin helped open Prigozhin's factory that was built on generous loans by a state bank. In Moscow alone, his company Concord won millions of dollars in contracts to provide meals at public schools. He also organized catering for Kremlin events for several years — earning him the nickname "Putin's chef" — and has provided catering and utility services to the Russian military."
In 2014, Prigozhin became the leader of the Wagner Group, a private military company that participated in Russia's annexation of Crimea.
PMC Wagner had been fighting alongside Russian military forces in the invasion of Ukraine. Last year, the Kremlin-backed Wagner group attempted to assassinate Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, according to The Times.
According to the Associated Press, "The Wagner forces have played a crucial role in Russia's war in Ukraine, succeeding in taking the city where the bloodiest and longest battles have taken place, Bakhmut. But Prigozhin has increasingly criticized Russia's military brass, accusing it of incompetence and of starving his troops of weapons and ammunition."
Prigozhin, 61, said he transitioned from a Putin ally to staging a serious rebellion because of an alleged Russian attack on Wagner forces in Ukraine.
Prigozhin claimed that Russia's chief of the General Staff, Gen. Valery Gerasimov, ordered airstrikes on Wagner's convoys, which were driving alongside ordinary vehicles. He asserted that the attack killed "a huge number of our comrades." Prigozhin alleged that Gerasimov made the order after a meeting with Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu.
The Russian Defense Ministry denied attacking Wagner troops.
Prigozhin, who claimed to have 25,000 troops under his command, said the Wagner Group would punish Shoigu in an armed rebellion and possible civil war.
I am just learning this mod stuff. Anyway, I accidentally deleted a post by Oerdin that I wanted to respond to.
Oerdin, would you be so kind as to post that youtube link again.

Russian politics has been described as two dogs fighting under the carpet. You know they're fighting, but you really don't have any clear idea what is going on until one dog emerges victorious... and the other one is dead.
Much has been said about the Wagner group and Putin in recent days. The funniest thing I heard was that the CIA had found six billion dollars and tried to engineer a coup, much to the delight of all who were salivating for Pootey-Poot's imminent demise, particularly in the social medias. And once that money was safely in Russian hands, the Wagner Group took a left at Albuquerque and pissed off to Belarus instead.
Placing them virtually on Kyiv's doorstep. Gee, that was six billion well spent, wasn't it?

Yeah, no shit...
Nothing can happen unless the US and their org keeps pouring in monies... and then nothing will continue to happen until the West dumps a whole lot of front line soldiers and equipment into the pseudo conflict and Russia obliterates a few cities of many millions because it was running out of choices to avert WW3.

Change a couple of words and it could be about the bullshit going on in Ukraine/Russia today.
Trump said a brief military mutiny by Russia's Wagner Group private military force put Russian President Vladimir Putin on a less stable footing in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.
"You could say that [Putin is] still there, he's still strong, but he certainly has been I would say somewhat weakened at least in the minds of a lot of people," Trump said in an interview with Reuters on Thursday.
Belarus says Wagner chief who staged mutiny is in Russia. His troops are supposedly in their field camps. Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko's claim could not be independently verified, and the Kremlin refused to comment on Yevgeny Prigozhin's whereabouts. But Russian media have reported he was recently seen at his offices in St. Petersburg.
It was not clear if Prigozhin's presence in Russia would violate the deal, which allowed the head of the Wagner Group military contractor to move to Belarus in exchange for ending the rebellion and a promise of amnesty for him and his troops. But the reports signaled that the agreement may have allowed him to finalize his affairs in Russia.
Biden has decided to send U.S. stocks of cluster munitions to Ukraine amid its fight against Russia, the White House said Friday, defending the controversial move.
The weapons are part of a new military aid package worth up to $800 million.
