“There are witnesses, there are people from whom they tried to commission, whom they asked how much they would take for the order,” TASS reported Kadyrov as saying.

Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov has accused Russian lawmakers from neighboring regions of attempting to commission his assassination, and threatened them with a “blood feud” unless they prove otherwise, state news agency TASS reported.

TASS cited Chechen-language comments by Kadyrov, a close ally of Russian President Vladimir Putin, to a meeting of Chechen security officials. Video of the meeting was published on Kadyrov’s personal Telegram channel on Wednesday.

The news agency translated Kadyrov’s comments as: “There are witnesses, there are people from whom they tried to commission, whom they asked how much they would take for the order.”

      For all his faults, Prigozhin had a better grasp on reality, and more brains, then Kadyrov has ever possessed. And Colonel General Caterer was an idiot.

      The point is, as funny as the Hot Dog Mutiny was, a TikTok Insurrection would both be significantly shorter lived, and exponentially more hilarious.
