261, 000 russian occupiers killed in action 😱

That’s the fastest DNA test in the world. What’s Russia’s secret?

[dandansen]

One war criminal taking out another war criminal.
Now, if someone could just take out the one of the two still alive ...

[AlexAlex-gjjd]

I really appreciate Cohen's starting off with the shootings yesterday. Class act!

[James-kesx]

The lack of Investigation as to the cause of the crash says everything there is to know.

[JeffreyEpsteinOwnsYou]

In other words, he is alive and well

[derekmooney]

Amazingly the Russian department that normally investigates and authorises DNA checks arrived on-site a day after the crash, whereas they normally take two weeks. You have to imagine a couple of trucks parked at the spot waiting for an explosion.

Putin... "This is terrible loss. Very sad and unexpected.
.... The plane will be greatly missed!"

[vjihppz]

The question wasn't if he will die. The real question was how long would he last. Doesn't matter how powerful you are, if you try a mutiny, you definitely have a hit on your head. This is Russia we are talking about.

[Lions-mindset._]

My theory is Putin and prigozin struck some kind of a deal, where at the beginning of mutiny prigo was threatened to be handed generational punishment and only way out was to disappear and leave Wagner for good in return for abolition of punishment. I think prigo is now running a farm and looking after cattle somewhere in zimbabwe.😢

We need to keep an eye on Republicans with regard to Ukraine. You can bet that those who oppose aid have ties to Putin.

On my flight from Spain back home i also had some turbulence, so i can totally relate.
I wish Prigozhin a speedy recovery! 🙏

“by conducting groundbreaking 48 hour lab experiment and producing definitive results we have genetically proven we hit the right plane”

[singlewhitefemale]

That was the quickest DNA testing done. Usually it takes weeks to months to get results on identification.

[outlawbillionairez]

As a side story, all of the failed lunar landing management team are refusing to fly anywhere.✈️🤸🤸🤸

[EastsideLegend]

It’s question wasn’t really if he was dead but who did it is the question

[williamd.costigan]

Great interview. Sec. Bill Cohen seems so passionate and he combines that with astute observations. I'm going to look for your interview with Vinman.

[James_Knott]

They had to confirm they got the right guy!

[DocthMech]

“Russia says genetic tests...” as in testing of materials provided by the FSB?

[JimTimber]

Hilarious the way the kremlin orcs confirm the assassination like they knew nothing about it 😂😂🤣🤣
