US on High Alert as Russian Mercenary Leader Threatens Armed Coup in Moscow

[Next News] In a chilling development that has sent shockwaves through the international community, Yevgeny Prigozhin, the leader of the notorious Wagner mercenary group, has vowed retaliation against Russia’s military leadership. This bold declaration, following claims of a deadly strike on his mercenaries, has ignited fears of an armed coup in the heart of Russia. The US, along with its allies, is closely monitoring the situation, bracing for potential fallout that could reshape the geopolitical landscape.

The White House has expressed its concern over the escalating situation in Russia, following the explosive comments from Yevgeny Prigozhin, the chief of the Wagner mercenary group. Prigozhin’s threats against Russia’s military leadership, including Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu and Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov, have been viewed as a significant escalation from his usual rhetoric.

#3 As I told my wife last night, what is frightening about this is not what is happening in Russia, which is apparently serious and significant, but that it is happening while the Puppet Show is ostensibly in charge. Instead of steady hands and prudent leaders, we have a clown-show, behind which are people who will see this as an opportunity to exploit for financial and political gain. What they might do to accelerate this threat to Putin might well spark a very big ugly!
