MNI POLITICAL RISK - US Prepares For All Russia Contingencies

Executive Summary:

  • US officials are scrambling to assess the implications of a rebellion against Russian military leadership by Yevgeny Prigozhin’s Wagner Group over the weekend.
  • US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said yesterday that “this is an unfolding story,” but said the rebellion "...was a direct challenge to [Russian President Vladimir] Putin’s authority."
  • President Biden’s latest trio of Fed nominees are facing, “limited opposition from the GOP” in the Senate Banking Committee.
  • President Biden will today announce a USD$42 billion federal push to expand high-speed internet as he begins a week of events designed to promote "Bidenomics."
  • Former President Donald Trump described his two federal indictments as a “great badge of courage” as he cast himself as an advocate for the Christian right at a 'Faith & Freedom Coalition’ event in Washington on Saturday.
  • Democrats believe the White House drive to end ‘junk fees’ may be a vote winner in 2024, despite outwardly appearing a niche political issue.
  • US and Turkish officials have "committed to expand and intensify bilateral political, defense and security consultations at all levels," at a bilateral defence and diplomacy summit.
  • Poll of the Day: Fifty-five percent of voters have "major concerns" about Biden's mental and physical health.
