Anyone else on the plane with him?
9 other people. Probably ppl Putin also wanted to get rid of.
We knew this was coming. Prigo should have went full steam ahead into Moscow and followed through with his threats.
Instead, he doesn't exist anymore. Oh well, lesson learned, if you're gonna do something, don't half ass it or you might end up being disintegrated in mid air.
In all seriousness, that was a well deserved ending for that monster. I hope Putin's end is just as awful.

On a related note, MSNBC had great coverage of what happened. I would be Katy Tur's side piece any day of the week

I was wondering why Putin was taking so long. Apparently he waited till Priggy's fearsome #2 villain Utkin was aboard for a two-shot.

And to think there are people in this thread that are Putin apologists. Imagine sucking off a merciless dictator that would kill all our families to fulfill his delusions of grandeur. I can’t wait to hear how this is NATO’s fault.

No no, just pointing out the moral of the story:
Always commit to a goal, and see things through to the end. You'll regret it if you don't

Every one of Putin's major adversaries has met an untimely death. Some of them were good, and some, like Prigozhin, just wanted to replace the evil that is Putin with their own brand of evil. I won't mourn the loss of the man, but I do mourn the lost opportunity to bring about change in Russia.
Does anyone doubt that if Trump were reelected, he'd be as bad?

Re: Russia-Ukraine War Part 2
At 3:19 p.m. GMT, the aircraft made a “sudden downward vertical,” said Ian Petchenik of Flightradar24. Within about 30 seconds, the aircraft had plummeted more than 8,000 feet from its cruising altitude of 28,000 feet.
“Whatever happened, happened quickly,” Petchenik said.
“They may have been wrestling (with the aircraft) after whatever happened," Petchenik said. But prior to its dramatic drop, there was "no indication that there was anything wrong with this aircraft.”
It was weird, everything was just totally fine and then suddenly, there was a missile sticking out of the side of the plane...

There's really no big loss here. Prigozhin was a PoS.

Our families. Russians families. His friends families. He will sacrifice anyone and anything.. possibly his own children. A majority of Westerners have simply lost their grit, and are unable to comprehend someone of this nature. It's a shame.

Re: Russia-Ukraine War Part 2
Was there any surprise that two slimiest grifters, who lie about every topic, were the only ones on the debate stage to say they wouldn't support Ukraine any longer?

You're about to get banned from RealGM
With that in mind, please keep trolling and we'll keep reporting you until you're gone
Buh Bye
You lose. It proves that you don't like to be challenged on anything you say.
Keep in mind, all your bluster about Ukraine, Putin and whatever other stuff you've been saying, it doesn't change the fact we have skyrocketing inflation here at home, soaring crime, & high gas & grocery prices. You have to pay for all of this. Both of us do. I don't want my tax dollars going to a corrupt country. It is bankrupting our own country, causing inflation, and homelessness is out of control, same with drugs, plus a lot of innocent civilians are getting killed with those taxpayer dollars sent overseas.
I will not apologize for wanting low gas & grocery prices or wanting to focus on the problems here at home, not abroad. About time Europe takes care of that.
Finally someone with a working brain who also acknowledges this loser for exactly the type of person he is. How he is back here after himself previously being banned for the nonsense he came back to spew in these threads over and over again. God help if he actually influences someone in here to believe the brainwashed garbage he is perpetuating. No one is allowed to have any other opinion other then his or he starts trying to silence you and name calling without actually giving you a shred of evidence to support his lies.

It's not a conservative opinion. It is a common sense opinion. Some of you never left 2020.
Aiding a morally bankrupt country with billions of dollars of relief for absolutely no benefit to the country is completely asinine. Our country is a disaster right now the majority of its citizens are losing their quality of life. There is an entire generation right now who can't afford homes, can't afford to start families, to live a happy life without being a slave to work because there is not enough money to match the cost of living.
