Tim reads a CNN article about Prigozhin being 'at large and in charge' just before his death, contrasting it with Navalny's harsh sentencing, showing Western media's misunderstanding of Russian rules.
- In Russia you just gotta kill the people that bother you; in America you can kind of let them around.
- Tim notes the article about Navalny's 19-year sentence reads like it's describing America, not Russia.
- Prigozhin taking a selfie on the way out of Russia was a death sentence—he didn't understand you can't do that for the gram.
- Prigozhin fired on military helicopters and killed Russian servicemen, so Putin had to have him killed to maintain credibility.
- Press corps from the Atlantic to the New York Times didn't grasp that Prigozhin was always going to be killed no matter what.
- Tim saw the photo of Prigozhin and immediately knew he was dead.
