    Yeah, the Ukrainian people threw out Yanukovych multiple times for being a Russian puppet.

    Yanukovych argued in favour of economic modernisation, increased spending and, initially, continuing trade negotiations with the EU. He pledged to remain non-aligned in defence policy. However, his years in power saw what analysts described as democratic backsliding,[10] which included the jailing of Tymoshenko, a decline in press freedom[11] and an increase in cronyism and corruption.[12] In November 2013, Yanukovych made a sudden decision, amidst economic pressure from Russia,[13] to withdraw from signing an association agreement with the EU and instead accept a Russian trade deal and loan bailout. This sparked mass protests against him that ultimately led to his ousting as president.

    How or where is the US involved in this? and why would they care?

    Or you know Occam’s razor,

    pressure from Russia clearly indicates they want Ukraine and are upset that their puppet was thrown out by the people.

    Dude was jailing his opposition, and the people rose up against it.

    That doesn’t sound like the actions of a person that has Ukraine’s interests as their primary goal.

    After Russia lost their puppet, they invaded Crimea.

    It doesn’t help that the US spends an ‘OBSCENE’ amount of money on their military for their own internal workings.

    It’s hard for any NATO member to justify more spending of their GDP.

    When everyone decides to build 2/tanks per cycle… and yet one entity is just pissing out 20/tanks per cycle,

    There’s so much oversupply in general, why would anyone else increase their output to 3/tanks?

    stretch that out over 50 years, and that’s where we are today.

    I don’t understand the issue.

    He was a senator so they investigated him.

    Now GOP is saying he resigned that seat, so they can’t release the investigation (they shouldn’t be used investigate basic citizens is their arguement)

    So… when he’s up for AG, they do a background check right? Release it then as soon as his hearing starts. He’s not a basic citizen then, he’s being checked out for the job.

    Release it as soon as he attempts to take any governmental position.
