Should we be expecting the defenestration this month? Or is that the one scheduled for next month?

Who is even stupid enough to take that job?

I don't think they get a choice

At least he's not giving them the old "Stalin Purge" try. (Far as we know...)
Sechran
He reportedly put a Kremlin insider back in charge - the original failure spearheading this. Interesting implications with that.
UggItsThatKid24
Seems like he was sending a message to the Wagner group.
Sechran
Dunno. Perhaps he doesn't trust Surovikin, or perhaps he worries he's losing support in Moscow so Gerasimov goes back being in charge.

Did the commander fall off a balcony too?

Putin doesn't understand war one bit. Ground troops are following outdated orders from weeks ago from Putin.
VibratingNipples
He being like Hitler, micromanaging the war.
TheWombatStrikesAgain
Not so sure about that. Looks like he understands how it's going, he's just unable or unwilling to pay the price to actually improve the (1)

situation, so he just sacrifices more expendable lives. (2)

Turns out fear mongering just leads to incapable, fearful morons.

And Wagner is so full of shit that even the Kremlin are telling them to stop overblowing their reports.

Breaking news: this general has been run over by an e-scooter
RElGNMAN
Did he send him to the front line.
easyoneundone
he should start thinking about replacing the idiot who is president
prfesser
Waiting for the commanders in Russia to replace Putin. Permanent-like.
MidoryMoon
Putin should go out on the front lines and show those Generals how it's done. Surely everyone would agree!
TheWombatStrikesAgain
And he should take with him all the politicians and tv shitbags who keep talking about how they're not committing enough war crimes.
Filanwizard
Hopefully with his cell phone on and with in 50mi of a HIMARS.
ChickenROAR
Shoot him dead in the likely event that he would run, as he would be a traitor and coward in the eyes of the Russian President.

The Ukrainians will certainly be afraid of a 5-foot-2 pants shitter.

While it's true Surovikin is no longer commander, he was retained as deputy of a higher-ranking guy who was brought in.
MuleDear
And he was already a deputy of that same guy.
Sortros
Surovikin was demoted and replaced by the chief of Defence, Gerasimov. Gerasimov was the superior of Surovikin before too.

Doubtful. He was pretty popular and was considered to be performing well. This seems less about him specifically and more about Putin >

too much power and status. So Putin is shuffling positions again to avoid anyone getting too popular for his safety.

I've got bets with how long it'll take before Wagner's financier/owner receives the "Russian Special, M. Knight Shymalan Edition"

Putin belongs in hell. Tried to destroy America with trump & other republicans and destroying russia.
JacobKreutzfeldt
Western media reports Wagner is advancing, which Putin has been unable to for months. Jevgenij might be trying to make Putin look bad.
Sortros
Many report that the best equipment goes to Wagner too, and the federal army is left with the scraps.

Damn, my name's also Evgeny... :/
JacobKreutzfeldt
jevgenij prigozjin. sorry. Thought it was his last name.
EugeneNEY
Dgevgenidgh... xD That spelling butchering gets me all the time, I even got my name spelled as Yevgeni in an international passport... :(
JacobKreutzfeldt
I don't think you wanna be called whatever sounds i make when I try to pronounce that. You'd only get stuttering consonants.

At this point it seems they're just making shit up to give themselves medals. Or is it like scouts with merit badges... like knot tying?
EugeneNEY
The pic is a photoshop, but still - in soviet union there were jokes about wearing medals over your knee cap. ?
EugeneNEY
Can't say for NK, but in USSR medals were often issued for non-combat achievements, like organizing an army, developing a weapon, and such.
