First some tweets by a usually perceptive observer. He makes some points that are similar to those made by Valtersson, but goes beyond that toward the position Scott Ritter takes in a conversation with Judge Napolitano: ayden @squatsons It looks as though Prigozhin may have severely overestimated the number of high level and ranking officials who would join him in his attempted coup.
⚡️Residents of #Moscow allegedly began to receive calls from unfamiliar numbers supposedly from #PMC "#Wagner" - residents are called to "support the #Wagnerites and take to the streets,"
Putin knew of Prigozhin “coup” and gave him enough rope to gang himself, and accelerated tine with Russian Military taking more direct control of Wagner.
Putin is using coup, as Erdogen did his, to expose anti Putin assets, especially backed by Ukraine and MI6.
And timing was after Ukraine had stopped their counter offensive. There May be hope this will cause Ukraine to restart counter offensive, while they perceive Russia in turmoil. Russia hope is to get Ukraine to throw away more soldiers and equipment in a doomed to fail offensive operations, against Russian defense lines.

Hans Manhcke’s Twitter feed reflects some of this. Recall Mueller’s indictment of Prigozhin. Speculation relationship with Biden and possible CHS.
Just when you think the world couldn't possibly become more ridiculous, it tells you to hold its beer.
I don't know about Scott Ritter. I guess he's a knowledgeable source, but there are a lot of knowledge sources to choose from, why Scott Ritter?
I couldn't pull it up in the gray matter, so I did a quick Internet search, and voila:
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2011/apr/15/former-un-weapons-inspector-online-sex
There are a bunch of other links, too. I don't know, was it entrapment?
I don't have any personal friends who have been accused of and convicted of what About Ritter was convicted. If I had had such, I'd shun that person.
That's why I shun Scott Ritter. If he did that then, what else don't we know--and I'd rather not know, thank you.
I'd just prefer someone without such peccadillos.
