Justice in Russia:
Demonstrating by holding a blank piece of paper:
Jail time.
Threatening to kill the Minister of Defence and overthrow the government:
No biggie — have a trip to Belarus.
Russia is going to need a new president soon, and there is a guy in the US who has former experience as a president, wants to be a president again, and is already on the Russian payroll so minimal HR paperwork.

The Republican controlled legislature makes its latest move to take power out of the hands of Texas city governments.
This is just a prelude to controlling exactly how elections are held.

Russian Coup, Ukraine War
Apparently #Lukashenko called Putin twice today.
“The call took place at 9 pm Moscow time.
During the conversation, Lukashenko “informed the president of Russia in detail about the results of negotiations with the Wagner leadership. Russia's president supported and thanked his Belarusian colleague for work he’s done.”

Viola White also refused to surrender her bus seat in Montgomery in 1944. After she decided to press charges against the bus company for her mistreatment, the police retaliated by committing a horrifying act of violence. They raped Viola’s daughter as a means of intimidation and to discourage further resistance. To further compound the injustice, the state intentionally delayed and obstructed her appeal, preventing the case from reaching the courts.

Russian Coup, Ukraine War
This might very well be a very practical attempt to rest his troops before the final battle for #Moscow
I wouldn't be quick enough to assume that there really was any deal or that the coup is over. It could be, but we don't know enough yet.

Russian Coup, Ukraine War
The retreat announcement only happened a few minutes ago, so we don't have much further info.
I would like to say though that Prigozhin DID NOT say that they are done with the coup attempt or that they will not resume advancing. He only said that they are in a risky situation, covered a lot of distance, and they are going to rest in field camps.

The legend lives on from the billionaires on down
Of the big ship they called the #Titanic
You can visit, it's said
If you've got lots of bread
And your need to show off's a bit manic.
#OceanGate's rated floor?
Fifteen-hundred metres or more.
But that sub-maker was a bit squirrelly.
The depths they went to?
Thousands deeper, it's true!
So they all met their endings early.
Russian Coup, Ukraine War
#Lukashenko just made a statement:
“They agreed that unleashing a bloody massacre on #Russia is unacceptable. #Prigozhin accepted the proposal of the President of #Belarus to stop the movement of armed persons of #Wagner across Russia and take further steps to de-escalate tensions.”

#Zelensky recorded a video address in Russian
"The man from the #Kremlin is obviously very afraid and is probably hiding somewhere, not showing his face. I'm sure he's not in #Moscow anymore. He is calling somewhere... He knows what he is afraid of, because he himself created this threat. All the evil, all the loss, all the hatred, he spread it himself. The longer he can keep running between bunkers - the more you all lose”
