Putin assassinated Prigozhin U.S. Officials say

.

U.S. Officials leaked to the NYT their belief that the Wagner Chief Prigozhin who earlier defied Putin by criticizing the Ukraine War was probably assassinated by Putin

not sure how many others were on the plane that crashed

I hope we're not supposed to feel sorry for this guy...

He was the ruthless, murderous leader of a mercenary group...so there's that...

And he wasn't too bright either, it seems.

Well, not the most shocking thing I have heard. I mean, I think the odds would have been set at 1/9 that it would happen.

I hope dementia Joe and his cadre of leftist loons don't get any bright ideas from this....BTW

I guess he's played nice thus far via bogus indictments...maybe Tucker was onto something when he asked Trump that question the other night.

Well, there's this......

The incident probably caused Trump to cut back on the Viagra.
He tends to get excited when Vlad pulls off a doozie.......

Look at you...doing your part to rig elections at every turn...

This right here is a prime example of the election rigging that took place in the runup to the 2020 election.

Keep it up! Because you LOVE DEMOCRACY, right buddy?

it has been reported that there were 8 others on that plane

Putin wants to kill one guy and he doesn't mind killing a few others if it provides a convenient cover for him

Putin is a monster imo

there are estimated to be about half a million deaths due to the war

all for the idea of Putin wanting to restore some of the glory to Russia of the past Soviet Empire

really sick

There's precedent. The U.S. shot down two (possibly three) Japanese planes in order to kill Japanese Admiral Yamamoto, killing more people than Yamamoto. The operation may have been approved by President Franklin Roosevelt. It was definitely approved by Admiral Nimitz.

Of course.

The naivete of some continues to astound.

Putin also likes to lock up and even kill his political opponents.

Not unlike what Biden is doing right now here in the USA.

Bathe in the glory of our "democracy"...

that was a WW2 operation against our enemy at that time - Japan

it's not comparable

it's not even remotely close to being the same thing
