Sen. Ben Cardin (D-Md.) said on Sunday that the armed rebellion from the Wagner Group shows Russian President Vladimir Putin’s power is waning among his people.

In an interview with Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday,” Cardin pointed to the rebellion by Yevgeny Prigozhin’s Wagner Group as evidence of Putin’s declining credibility, even among his longtime allies.

“Putin has lost his credibility with his own people. His account of why he went into Ukraine is now being challenged, I think, with public opinion and Russia itself,” Cardin told Bream.

Well this is the triple crown. Blinken, klobuchar and now Cardin has said the same thing this morning. Taking points are out.

Looks like the CIA got played for billions of dollars, and they are covering their tracks.

Not sure we can believe a pro-WH propagandist like Cardin.

Russians assumed this war would be quick

now they’re realizing they were misled

that’s why it’s into the 17th month now ... the longer it goes, the more unpopular Putin becomes

I do not trust anything a Democrat says about Russia…they have proven to be the biggest liars on the subject!

All public Uke harpies are total scumbags - each and evey single one. OBJECTIVELY.

Soros, Biden, Schwab, all dems in DC, the Bushes, McConnell - all of them. Every single one.

Hence, it's safe to assume their supporters here are scumbags - all of them.

Treat them accordingly.

These folks are not getting the hypocrisy of THEM lecturing folks about “credibility”.

The neocon warmongers fell for it, hook, line and sinker.

How could he possibly know this?

Basically he's "assuming the sale".
