The reason Burisma hired his crackhead son is that they were in tight with the government he overthrew and so were trying to cozy up to the new powers in town.

But anyway, here’s the intercepted phone call between Robert Kagan’s wife Victoria Nuland conspiring with the ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt about how to accomplish the coup, which was leaked two weeks before they went ahead and did it anyway. [Thanks Russia for the intercept! By the way, there are still 30,000 missing Hillary Clinton emails out there somewhere if you get a chance…]

Nuland: So on that piece Geoff, when I wrote the note [US vice-president’s national security adviser Jake] Sullivan’s come back to me VFR [direct to me], saying you need [US Vice-President Joe] Biden and I said probably tomorrow for an atta-boy and to get the deets [details] to stick. So Biden’s willing.

Pyatt: OK. Great. Thanks.
