    Russian President Vladimir Putin sent his condolences to the family of Yevgeny Prigozhin

    “I’m very sorry I shot his plane down to assassinate him. I probably wouldn’t do it again. Maybe.”

    “I had known Prigozhin for a very long time, since the start of the 90s. He was a man with a difficult fate, and he made serious mistakes in life.”

    “IDC how long I’ve known you, cross me and you get a missile up your bum.”

      It’s ego…

      Sure, this guy fucks over everyone else, but he wouldn’t dare do that to me, I’m special!

      Same reason people don’t expect trump to turn on them. Rational people don’t do it to begin with, so the ones willing to usually aren’t the best at critical thinking or risk assessment

    What is sad is that 10 other people were on that plane. Not a good idea to fly on a plane containing anyone outspoken against the kremlin.
