Still very few people know about this...

In 2014, Senator Chris Murphy bragged about the United States successfully overthrowing Ukraine's government:

"I think it was our role, including sanctions and threats of sanctions, that forced, in part, Yanukovych from office."

"We have not sat on the sidelines. We have been very much involved. Members of the Senate have been there. Members of the State Department have been on the Square."

"The Obama administration passed sanctions. The Senate was prepared to pass its own set of sanctions, and as I've said, I think that the clear position of the United States has, in part, been what has helped lead to this change in regime."

"If, ultimately, this is a peaceful transition to a new government in Ukraine, it will be the U.S. on the streets of Ukraine who will be seen as a great friend in helping make that transition happen."

"There is a U.S. interest here. We are in the middle of negotiating a new trade agreement with Europe. To my state, it's enormously important. We do 40% of our trade in Connecticut with Europe."

"If Ukraine is part of the EU and thus is part of this new trade agreement with the United States, that could result in billions of dollars in new economic opportunities for the U.S."

"So, we do have an economic interest in Ukraine being a part of the EU, and we shouldn't be shy about making that interest clear."

...

Murphy has successfully achieved Adam Schiff-level loathsomeness and duplicitousness.

...

Putin took Crimea shortly after Chris Murphy did this interview...

There's been a war in Ukraine ever since...

Putin believes the U.S. was involved in overthrowing Ukraine's government like Murphy is admitting to here

...

Yes, @ChrisMurphyCT and McCain stood shoulder to shoulder with Ukrainian neo-Nazi Oleh Tyannybok, leader of Svoboda. Both Svoboda and Right Sector provided the muscle during the U.S.-backed, violent illegal Maidan Coup. Why does Murphy support Ukrainian Nazis?

“We do 40% of our trade in Connecticut with Europe.”

Is that true? What does Connecticut export that Europe wants or needs?

LOL, these days, one would look for any NGO based in Connecticut that has received USAID money!

We ( the US) helped overthrow a popular elected Pro-Russian President in 2014.

An inconvenient fact Zeepers like to falsely call Russian propaganda.

Ukraine is a CIA project. America has had its fingers in everything going on there.

Wicked Victoria Nuland, Jake Sullivan and Anthony Blinken are responsible for the 2014 ‘Color Revolution’ that has led to the deaths of more than half a million young men. Some say the number is much much higher.

Time and time again throughout history the Europeans have stumbled into war after war. We bailed them out twice, but this time we’ve helped them stumble. Trump needs to get the USA as far away from those idiots as possible. Our gaze needs to be toward Asia.

That is when this insanity started. Who was behind this?
1. Barack Obama
2. Hillary Clinton
3. Victoria Nueland a truly evil woman as bad as Hillary perhaps worse
4. Our intelligence services, all of them
5. The water carrying media

The United States and NATO meticulously orchestrated the 2014 Maidan coup in Ukraine.. Victoria Nuland along with Samantha Powers ..

22 Feb 2014: With Sochi Winter Olympics underway, Team Obama toppled the democratically elected government of Ukraine’s pro-Russian leader Viktor Yanukovych.

There was a great thread a few years ago documenting Hillary’s role - she was active re Ukraine in 2010 (laying groundwork).

The 2016 election run up, she kept rattling the saber of war with Russia, everyone kept asking why.
Because they planned to get us entangled in one, and she forgot to lay the groundwork for one.
She assumed everyone was on the same page as her and her cohorts.
They mistook their own propaganda as fact and ignored everything saying that their project wasn’t popular.

And nothing changed between then and now.
They kept trying from January 2021 till January 2025 to finesse a war.
But recruiting numbers kept dropping, and they’d finally started paying some attention to the polls on it.
