absolutely cemented when prigozhin began to jet around between moscow and st. petersburg and multiple trips to africa shoring up wagner's dealings in the central african republic and libya. putin didn't want that. he wants him to be under control of the military defense and why prigozhin started the mutiny because he objected to that. so yes, i think we all expected something to happen in terms of retribution. it has. >> dana: on june 26th bremmer said he was a dead man walking. i can't imagine the people who got on the plane with him were excited about being on a plane with him. these people have died under suspicious circumstances after crossing putin. you can see all these faces here. why i say it wasn't a mystery what happened here but now we know for sure that prigozhin was on that plane.

Way Too Early With Jonathan Lemire

good morning and welcome to "way too early" on this monday, june 26th. i'm jonathan lemire. thanks for starting your day with us. we'll begin this morning with this weekend's developing news out of russia where the head of the mercenary wagner group launched the most direct challenge to vladimir putin's grip on power in his 19 years as president. it started on friday when yevgeny prigozhin, the leader of that private army, posted a video to social media. in it prigozhin suggests that russia's invasion of ukraine was launched under false pretenses before accusing russian military leaders of bombing his own soldiers, fellow russians. prigozhin vowed to retaliate, and his forces began their move east soon after. by early saturday morning, the wagner group had claimed control of a military command center in southern russia, one that's key to the war in ukraine. video shows civilians filming
