Lorry, 11 months ago I keep hearing #journalists and pundits talking about the #Putin / #Prigozhin #coup and saying things like "Who could have seen this coming?" May I suggest "Anyone over 50 who has spent any time following #Russian #politics at all" could safely have gambled the family farm on this coming? My #Russia Coup folder has three subfolders, and that's just 1991, 1993 and 2023. And I still think there should be one for 1999. Hire older journalists, you silly newspapers and TV shows. #History #News

nattiegoogie, 11 months ago @Lorry Yep. I've been calling this for almost a year. Prigozhin has been insulting and criticizing Putin and the Russian military leadership, calling them bitches and cowards to the world for months now. This is now a surprise?
