Martyanov last month: This is all theatre. Prighozin is an attention seeking megalomaniac who has no power or control of Wagner.
Martyanov today: This attempted coup confirms my long held but never shared belief that Prighozin has always been a US/NATO asset .
The "asset" theory seems to also be popular amongst the 5D crowd with the real question being was Prighozin always an asset or has he recently turned. Every time. I think I've seen maximum levels of retardation I end up being proven wrong shortly thereafter.

The fact that the Kremlin is willing to negotiate with Kiev, Washington and Brussels but not Wagner is just crazy. The Kremlin will go counter terror operation on Wagner but not the VSU. If Prigozhin gets taken alive will his backers in Moscow get to buy him back like the Kremlin trades Azovites?
I don't support the timing of this of course but sympathy for the Kremlin is impossible at this point. Literally all the Kremlin has to do is signal they are willing to talk. If Putin said "everyone chill...we are going to talk" and Prigozhin said "no we aren't interested in talking" all the Wagner guys who believe this is about justice would start having serious doubts. That would be enough to seriously weaken Prigozhins position.
But it really all depends on who exactly is Prigozhin representing and how willing normal Russian troops besides the Chechnyans are to fight Wagner. And of course the 5D special needs mouth breathers not dying of shame at this point proves they are ethnic pornographers basically..I mean only that particular ethnicity can be this absolute shameless and non self aware.

Russia's " defeat" must look organic in nature so , by the time the population realizes the truth , it will be too late. With Prigozhin's " coup " as an excuse the Ukrainians will make progress in the counteroffensive ultimately " forcing " Russia into negotiations in a very weak position. Russia will be forced to accept very detrimental terms ultimately causing its dismemberment.
This is all part of a highly ritualistic script, The whole " Titanic" play we just went through is part of it.
Thanks for your writings, Rolo. Non-Russian speakers have no other way to navigate the internal workings of Russian power centers because every other English translating blogger other than Slavsquat (who usually focuses on Great Reset stuff) is an idiot or a shill, or both.
"Unfortunately for Prigozhin, he has not convinced me that he and his buddies would be any better."
I had read that one of Prigozhin's complaints was that the SMO was unnecessary; if he did state this then that's a terrible start for his rebellion. What, would he have preferred NATO and nukes right on Russia's doorstep? The complaint should just be that it was carried out horrendously. Support by Khodorkovsky is also a bad sign. And Wagner troops have been needlessly slaughtered in retarded head-on attacks in the Bakhmut meat-grinder...
A descent into "warlordism" could easily be another major step on the way toward disintegrating Russian entirely and carving it up into a bunch of little regions for globohomo to extract resources from...
I don't follow any of this very closely, but since you're one of my main sources of info I've been surprised to see the mass of confusion at this latest development. This is a clear testament to your keen insight, almost like those Peter Schiff was right videos circa 2009. I'm impressed, keep up the good work!

I just got banned on the Masno telegram channel as being Pro Wagner/Prigozhin is akin to being Anti-Russian. These Pro-kremlin paid fools are going to have a field day today trying to spin everything and explaining on their channels the so called isues while the whole narrative comes crashing down around them. I also agree that Wagner will have a good chance of pulling of this putsch. As they know the decedancy and corruption of the MoD by hand. Putin sending helicopters and local Moscow policemen against battle hardened troops smells like desperation to me.
Exciting, as I wasn't alive in 1917. A gutsy move by Prigozhin, but if he thought his number was up he had nothing to lose.
The Duran had an early morning "special" devoted to Prigozhin and all the latest according to RT. 😁
The duo basically said the Kremlin should've dealt with disrespectful Prigozhin months ago.
That being said, if apparatchiks in the Kremlin were somehow in cahoots with the West regarding the Ukraine mess then their might be some skittish folks in DC who ironically claim they want regime change, but are concerned about the outcome.
And there's Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Station...🙀
I'm assuming you're aware that Strelkov says the video of the alleged bombing is fake? Not that that really matters. In all the ways that do, you've been vindicated. Respect.
There's some speculation that this is an elaborate psyop to head off a potential false flag at the ZNPP. I like that notion. It's warm and reassuring and, thanks to being a regular reader of this blog, I now know enough to give it even less of a chance of being correct than you do of Prigozhin's weird coup attempt succeeding. (Mind you, the Russians are very good at mounting weird coups, so who knows?) Anyhow, I've got my popcorn and I will continue to subscribe for as long as you write.
I invite everyone to visit their favorite 5D / Putin cultist websites. You will be amazed at the mental gymnastics and copium snorting that is going on there currently.
Prigozhin had to factor in all the possible ramifications of marching on Moscow but he went for it anyway, meaning, he wasn't that worried about possible consequences. This is very telling in and of itself.
Prigozhin didnt back down, but achieved whatever his goals were. You dont get full pardons for yourself and your troops if you lost.
The panic in Moscow was very telling and embarrassing to a world " superpower ".
Russia's prestige and standing in the world has been damaged greatly.
I had serious doubts that Putin will travel to South Africa for the BRICS summit. Today's developments have cemented those doubts.
This was a lethal wound to VVP's political future. It has also exposed the absolute vulnerability of the heartland.
I would estimate the popularity of VVP vs that of Prigo about fifty/fifty.
This move has opened a huge festering wound on the body politik of Russia in general, and Putin in particular. United Russia may start it's public slide now. This cruise has truly illustrated the emperor's wardrobe.
An enormous loss of prestige all around. If I was of the opinion in the past, that Shoigu must go, I now have lost all confidence in the security apparatus, including VVP. All of it.
On the positive side, it might have opened up all kinds possibilities to the rise of Nationalist organizations, narratives. You can not - at the same time, rely on Nationalists to die for ya and prosecute them. No, I am not talking about Prigo. His tribe is not Russia.

Who is gonna fight for Russia if not the Nationalists? Hell, even Stalin had the common sense to apply to Nationalism.
Unfortunately Prigo is a jew, this is also a jewish coup-attempt. But - this is beyond the vocabulary of ordinary Russians raised on tales of the holly-hoax and nazis. He has many, many simps. If nothing, the haters of the "elites". They might not even be egainst VVP, but megayachts and coco chanel with rolls royces.
Not unlike the nationalists of 404 mind ya, they are doing the dying over there also, them and the cannon fodder.
When you read about full spectrum dominance - remember these events - this is what it actually looks like. The USSR used to apply this doctrine to it's games, but the RuF has stopped working with it's assets. Methinx, they rather appropriated the funds allocated - if there ever were any...what would it have taken them to blow on the ambers of the summer of peace after the demise of Saint George?...etc...
You cannot run an empire on the cheap. Neither a war.
I see pogroms in the near future of Russia - whatever is left of it...you can not explaine away all the zelenskis, prighozhins and noodleman-s.
So it is down to Strelkov and his Club...if he can keep his head above water...let me remind you what had Strelkov in mind, when he and his freeenz founded their organization: to give direction and an action plan for Russians in case of a loss of power by the elected represeenttatives....
Yeah, methinx Prigo can "win". He can freeze the RuF. in a civil war...That is a win for his tribe. Muddy waters. When, WHEN Prigo re-appears in the "west", with all the appropriate documents and talking points, laying out all the dirty laundry, he might as well get an office next Hunter Biden and Vicky Noodleman.
OTOH I see opportunities - Nationalists of Russia and the 404 might re-evaluate their relationship...
Strelkov is claiming, that according to some Wagnerites, the op has been in preparation for aboit two months now - and aside from VVP, everyone was aware of it being launched at such a time, when the RuF. Armed forces are abscent and incapable of action.

sir plz give lottery numbers for next month
The next 5D fantasy narrative to make the rounds (if it hasn't already): Wagner's "march" wasn't an "attempted coup"; it was a "strategic regrouping."
In any case, whatever Wagner's move truly was, it's massively increased the gamified-spectacle aspect of the war.
