The dumbest thing Putin has done in his rule has been to invade Ukraine.
Shooting Prigozhin out of the sky is the second dumbest thing.

@LiberalLibrarian But not soon enough.
@RationalLeft His generals will be wondering "Am I next?" That's not going to lead to a long shelf-life for Putina.
@RationalLeft Might be sooner than we think. Putin pissed off a rudderless mercenary force, and may have scared his generals into an act of self-preservation by removing him.

@LiberalLibrarian I hope it happens soon.
@LiberalLibrarian I'm sure Wagner has been thoroughly cowed by the gesture.
