A long read but very informative. The piece lays out the administrative state’s successful effort to undermine Ukraine and start the proxy war. Mate goes into much detail regarding how Trump’s meddling in the process was overcome and how the process was used to help destroy his administration.

It’s what Obama was trying to do with Libya, Syria, and every other location our state department meddled in.
And this is what they term “Success”.

A new nazi country, two impeachments, the destruction of the Dollar, Biden in the White Hut, and record profits for Lockheed and Raytheon?

“Over the last decade, Ukraine has been the battleground in a proxy war between the U.S. and Russia – a conflict massively escalated by the Kremlin’s invasion in 2022. The fight erupted in early 2014, when Biden and his team, then serving in the Obama administration, supported the overthrow of Ukraine’s elected president, Viktor Yanukovych. “

The whole premis pretends Putin and Russian intellience was not overtly and covertly meddling in Ukraine, since long before Obama and 2014, with multiple Urkraine leaders poinsoned or otherwise killed by Putin. The pretense suggests western nations were going to ignore all that.

The “proxy” war was begun by Putin before the 2022 invasion and before the 2014 takeover of Crimea.

As much as Biden and Obama bunhdled things they did not create the political conditions of post-Soviet Ukraine - they inherited them, which juss as in Russia includes an exconomic and political influence of oligrarchs which arose in the immediate post-Soviet era, all across the former Soviet Union. (That was bound to happen with the absence of any pre-existing true “free market” capitalists and a political elite able to use elite positions to gain economic advantage. I remember one economic report in the 1990s that claimed at the time the Russian mob controlled something like 60% of the banks in Russia and similarly in other parts of the former Soviet Union.)

This article explains why I have usually referred to the Ukraine-Russia conflict as an artificial war. It was prefabricated by the Obama -Biden regime to suit their own purposes.

What has over a century of Russia meddling in the US brought us?

Besides aiding and abetting the commies, Marxists and their sympathizers taking over 90% industry/institution.

Day 18 still no devastating Iranian attack off the tester.

Week 2 still no nukes that mayb e were going to be launched last week.

Zeeper propagandists like Chad C. Mulligan continue to deny the CIA's involvement in the illegal coup in Ukraine in 2014.

This report links both a Soros' organization and the CIA to the coup:

By its own count, Soros’ International Renaissance Foundation spent over $109 million in Ukraine between 2004 and 2014. In leaked documents, a former IRF board member even bragged that its partners “were the main driving force and the foundation of the Maidan movement,” and that without Soros’ funding, “the revolution might not have succeeded.” Weeks after the coup, an IRF strategy document noted, “Like during the Maidan protests, IRF representatives are in the midst of Ukraine’s transition process.”

Jeffrey Sachs, a Columbia University professor who advised Ukraine on economic policy in the early 1990s, visited Kyiv shortly after the coup to consult with the new government. 

“I was taken around the Maidan where people were still milling around,” Sachs recalls. “And the American NGOs were around there, and they were describing to me: ‘Oh we paid for this, we paid for that. We funded this insurrection.’ It turned my stomach.” Sachs believes that these groups were acting at the behest of U.S. intelligence. To go about “funding this uprising,” he says, “they didn't do that on their own as nice NGOs. This is off-budget financing for a U.S. regime-change operation.”
