A lot of the stuff on telegraph need to view it from multiple sources and right now that is the source for most of the media right now.

This guy wasn't an anti Putin guy so who knows what is going on. He could have just went in and killed a bunch of anti-Putin forces. Need to just wait and see. Unless Putin stopped paying or the US offered more money, I don't see him turning like that.

His beef wasn't with Putin, it was with the Minister of Defense who he claimed directed the rocket strike against his men.

That sounded like BS to me when I first heard it 48 hours ago and it still sounds like BS.
When this war started, our Treasury Department said that the Russians had enough hard currency to sustain a war effort for 18 months. We are 14 months in.
So I figure the real reason Wagner tried to rebel was because they are mercenaries that are no longer getting paid.  Ordinary Russian soldiers signaled they would resist, and the Wagner folks didn't want to die, so now they aren't mercenaries anymore but they are still soldiers.
If I'm right, this means many more wheels are about to come off the Russian war machine.
