So, Prigozhin released an interesting video: In front of a pile of fresh Wagner corpses he, using the best examples of Russian swearing,  yells at Shoigu and Gerasimov demanding shells. Curious

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MvFrWtLN5Q8 - Here, one with English subtitles (GRAPHIC!!)
I wonder how much longer until Wagner says fuck you and disbands itself. That, or Wagner says fuck you and starts a military coup.
Given how many of them have died recently, I figure they'll all die before they can do ether of those things.

Note that he is outright lying about the lack of shells. Bakhmut (10-20% of what is under Ukrainian control) is pounded with a tremendous amount of munitions and there is no decrease in intensity.

Why is he doing that? I really don't know. Perhaps shifting the blame from himself and getting political points.

Its all politics. I mean its transparent he doesnt really give a shit about his dead prison constripts. He's just jockeying for power with Shoigu. Possibly shifting blame too.
Its also clear that since Vlad is staying quiet over this he's probably OK with his subordinates clawing at each other. In his mind it probably makes him feel safer: as long as they are making power plays against each other they are not making power plays against him

The retarded buttfuckerussians attacked a convoy that was evacuating civilians from Bachmut. An elderly woman was killed. The other 4 evacuees escaped unharmed. According to the police, the 5 evacuees had been stuck in a basement shelter for well over a month, and they ran out of food. The army then decided to evacuate them.

Not the first time they've blown up civilians, and it probably won't be the last time we hear of such a thing happening.

I should note the theoretical withdraw from Bakhmut by Wagner is conjectured as being untrue in some articles I've read. The articles say for example that Wagner is pulling out of some other places and is currently reinforcing Bakhmut. In addition Kadyrov has said he may move to replace Wagner with Kadyrovites in Bakhmut should it be more than misinformation fwiw.

Some pro-Putin writer and politician was the target of a car bombing. Forgot his name, but he lived with severe injuries but the driver was killed. L, hope they try again.

Also, I have heard rumors that Victory Day parades in several cities have been cancelled due to the risk of a terrorist attack. Dunno if the Moscow one will happen. Hoping that a bombing happens or a truck gets rammed through the parade or something, would be nice on live TV. Sorry but this government has tainted that day and anything that humiliates it would be good.

Zakhar Prilepin, writer and rapper, is not really pro Putin but he is ultra nationalist and pro invasion of Ukraine. He has criticized the army for not being succesful and has criticized Putin telling him that he needs to step down. So yes, he is an asshole, yes I hope they try again, but no, he's not really pro-Putin.

The bomb could again have come from anyone.

There is a $0.5 million bounty for anyone who will land a drone on the Red Square on May 9. I'll laugh so hard if anyone will manage to do it.

Hm, then I want him alive. Anyone that calls for Putin to resign is a hero.
And it was probably the FSB. Other vocal critics of Putin took flying lessons, or died in locked rooms.

Heh, no. There's also those that are just as bad or worse than Putin. This guy would probably be worse than Putin when put in charge of Russia. No hero material.

Uh, that ain't what I said. I don't want him running Russia, I just want another loud voice calling for Putin to step down. Enemy of my Enemy is my friend.

Squabbling fascists who can only agree on bombing civilians but disagree over how to do it or who gets to take the credit are fascists nonetheless.
