  3. #Trump’s former #Russia adviser says Russia offered US free rein in #Venezuela in exchange for #Ukraine

    "The Kremlin will be 'thrilled' with the idea that large countries — such as Russia, the United States and China — get spheres of influence because it proves 'might makes right,' " - Fiona Hill.

    "Russian officials indicated in 2019 that the Kremlin would be willing to back off from its support for #NicolásMaduro in Venezuela in exchange for a free hand in Ukraine, according to #FionaHill, an adviser to President Donald Trump at the time.

    "The Russians repeatedly floated the idea of a 'very strange swap arrangement between Venezuela and Ukraine,' Hill said during a congressional hearing in 2019. Her comments surfaced again this week and were shared on social media after the U.S. stealth operation to capture Maduro.

    "Hill said Russia pushed the idea through articles in Russian media that referenced the #MonroeDoctrine — a 19th century principle in which the U.S. opposed European meddling in the Western Hemisphere and in return agreed to stay out of European affairs. It was invoked by Trump to justify the #USIntervention in Venezuela."

  4. My initial reaction to Trump's kidnapping of Maduro was that it was an idea planted in Trump by Putin. Turns out I was right.

    Fiona Hill testified to it in her 2019 testimony. See page 362, line 12 through page 363, line 25.

  6. Oof... The situation is even more serious and further along than I realized.

    We really don't need another Russia-like nation (just 20 times more powerful) going rampage in the world.

  9. Fiona Hill at the first Trump impeachment: “She said there was no doubt that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. “President Putin and the Russian security services,” she testified, “operate like a super PAC. They deploy millions of dollars to weaponize our own political opposition research and false narratives.”

    Um, I'm inclined to believe #FionaHill and #JohnBolton when it comes to #Trump and #Russia's war against #Ukraine.

    Fiona Hill says that Trump emboldened Putin to invade Ukraine by treating the country like a 'playground'

    John Bolton: Trump Made It ‘That Much Easier’ for Putin to Invade Ukraine

  11. I had to share thisd tory from #SusanGlasser ‘s new #VanityFair column!

    “ I was reminded of this when I received a call from #FionaHill, the top National Security Council aide on Russia for much of Trump’s Presidency. Hill told me that she was stunned by how similar Vance’s defiant embrace of the radicalizing power of stories, whether true or not, was to the views advanced by Vladimir Putin’s chief international propagandist, the Russia state-television personality Margarita Simonyan: So what, in effect, if we make stuff up? “I was just really struck: RT and VT—Vance-Trump—are the same,” she said. “It’s the same weaponization of migration and disinformation.”

    The episode recalled for Hill an incident early in Trump’s Presidency, in November of 2017, when Trump tweeted out several inflammatory videos from a British far-right group purporting to show attacks carried out by Muslim immigrants. British officials contacted Hill, urging her to get the White House to have Trump pull down his tweets and disavow them. But, she said, when she brought the concerns to the White House press staff, which was then run by the current governor of Arkansas, Sarah Huckabee Sanders, she was rebuffed. Hill was told that Trump was simply using the videos to further his domestic political agenda. When Sanders was then asked about the tweets by reporters, her response was an uncanny preview of Vance’s recent remarks: “Whether it’s a real video,” she said, “the threat is real.”

    “…in many places, populist, illiberal and far-right parties are either growing in support or consolidating gains they have already made.” Democracy autocracy #Democracy #autocracy #FionaHill

    “Ukraine has become a battlefield now for 🇺🇸 & 🇺🇸’s own future…for our own defensive posture & preparedness, reputation & leadership… For Putin, 🇺🇦 is a proxy war against the 🇺🇸, to remove the 🇺🇸 from the world stage…
    …many members of Congress
    are 🤔 less abt 🇺🇸 nat’l security, European security, internat'l security & foreign policy, & much more abt how they can humiliate Biden… Putin wants Biden to lose & they want Biden to be seen to lose as well.”
