It'll be interesting to see if the Wagner Group will now fall in line or if Putin just poked a hornet's nest.

Based on witness testimony, when he arrived to wreckage, found people were moving bodies from wreckage, sounds like someone wanted visual confirmation.

What's fucking hilarious is that I called this as soon as he backed down. On the former place, lots of people talking about how confusing it all was and I'm like nah he's gonna die in an "unfortunate" plane crash.

He should have gone all in. He should also have known that you can't cross Putin like this and not expect retaliation.

I can't help but think his death was staged as a putinite psyop.

Hopefully the same thing happens to Putin next.

This was expected to happen the moment he backed down.
