What the hell happened it Russia over yesterday and today? I think the Prigozhin and his Wagner group wanted out of the war in Ukraine, but they couldn't retreat or surrender...so they pointed the finger at Putin (which Wagner Prigozhin has been doing for months now, maybe as foundation for this) and threatened a coup. His March to Moscow ended as quickly as it began, and really ended up as nothing more than taking the scenic drive from southeastern Ukraine to Belarus. But, in the end, Wagner retreated from Ukraine...but didn't surrender.
