Strength. and being in charge. it is clear that what provision has done is to undermine that image that putin has so carefully cultivated over the last two decades. missy, i imagine from the kremlin press office and from putin s standpoint, some of the most disturbing images from their standpoint wasn t just what prigozhin said today, but with the citizens did, cheering and chanting wagner as he drove by. what is your sense of how the u.s. military and u.s. national security agencies are evaluating maybe new or newly-revealed weaknesses in russia? yet nicole. that s really the question that we ve been asking ourselves now, in the last few hours. things like this situation have come to a head, and the immediate crisis for putin may have been contained. is what does the fact of this apparent uprising mean for russia, and for president putin? ....
Tomorrow on the sunday shows. but i think that s the correct strategy. i, if i were working at the white house right now, i would not be focused on communicating with putin. i would be making calls to judging paying. to modi, to all of the others sitting on the fence. and i would be saying this. this guy is weak, the longer this war goes on, the weaker things become. and if you re really worried about chaos in russia, we need to work together to wrap up this war. i think that right now is a much more important message, because we do not want those countries, especially judging ping, coming to putin s rescue. and i think right now is the time to make that message. and by the way, the faster they want up the war, the more probable putin might actually stay in power. that would be a very clever arguments, if i were working in the government right now, that i would be making to those ....

More violent. so it s not really that we re rooting for one side or the other, are we ambassador? no, this is one thug fighting with another thug. there is no heroes here, this notion that they were avoiding bloodshed, give me a break. prigozhin hasn t been afraid of a bloodshed for his entire career. they just played a game of chicken and everyone thought they were better off not to fight. but no, they re all criminals. the fact that they re fighting amongst themselves is a better than fighting ukrainians, but they are no heroes. that s for sure. general mccaffrey, what opportunities might the allies or the pentagon along with the ukrainians be looking to exploit at this moment, where putin is at best distracted by an act of what he described ten hours ago, of treason? well, i agree with almost ....
Isolation. that was my mission this morning. i think and how they raise our kids. in the world of social media, and the way that gun violence affects us. so this is the last thing i expected to be doing all night, is watching vladimir putin. and seeing him go against, seeing his prigozhin was like the point of us here a lowbrow and africa and syria. projecting putin s foreign policy. and has been doing for a while. has been following the conflict. but i don t think i don t think they saw this coming. they saw these tensions, whether they thought it would become a march towards moscow and other suppression s actually. andrea mitchell, it s unbelievable. the pictures, they ve run over and over again. they don t get old. they are still shaking. ....
