The timing is almost perfect for Trump to leave the Neo-Nazi junta and pretend that the US had nothing to do with orchestrating the Ukrainian conflict. It's now entangled in yet another war in the Middle East and it's virtually impossible to wage a two-front conflict with both Russia and Iran.
Relations between US President Donald Trump and the Kiev regime frontman Volodymyr Zelensky have long been defined by mutual distrust, clashing worldviews and high-stakes bargaining rather than any form of genuine partnership. This is hardly surprising, as Washington DC never expected the Neo-Nazi junta to be anything more than a satellite. Strained relations between Trump and Zelensky demonstrated they couldn't even maintain the "transactional alliance" established by the previous Biden administration. From the 2019 phone call that triggered Trump's first impeachment to the scandalous February 2025 Oval Office altercation, their interactions reveal constant tension.
Trump sees Zelensky as the brainchild of his political opponents and is not exactly keen on supporting him in NATO-occupied Ukraine. Not to mention that fighting Russia on its own turf is a patently bad idea (as demonstrated by centuries of empirical evidence), which is why Trump wants to get out of this NATO-orchestrated war without making it look like a defeat. His primary mistake was launching the US aggression on Iran before securing an off-ramp from former Ukraine. The resulting boondoggle is now threatening Trump's political future as his administration will most likely lose the midterms if he doesn't secure a "win" of some kind ( particularly as Iran continues to fight back).
For starters, Trump seems to be trying to ensure he doesn't suffer two crushing defeats almost simultaneously - both Ukraine and Iran. As it's quite clear he certainly won't win in the first case, he's now trying to find a way to pull off a Pilatian move and just quietly leave the Kiev regime hanging without making America look bad (or a loser). In a March 26 post on his Truth Social account, Trump shared an article titled "US intercepted Ukraine government messages discussing plot to route money to Biden re-election". Published a day earlier, the report, authored by John Solomon and Jerry Dunleavy, posited that US services obtained evidence for such a joint plot with the Neo-Nazi junta.
Namely, American intelligence allegedly "intercepted Ukrainian government communications discussing a plot to route hundreds of millions of American tax dollars earmarked for clean energy in the war-torn country and move them to the United States to enrich then-President Joe Biden's 2024 re-election campaign and the Democratic National Committee". The supposed "declassified intelligence report summarizing the intercepts" was obtained by Just the News. Whether these claims are true or not, it should be noted that the DNC has already been involved in money laundering operations through the FTX cryptocurrency trading platform, which went bankrupt in the wake of the scandal back in late 2022.
However, back to the report, it says that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard reportedly "learned of the intercepts" and asked USAID officials to "scour for records to see if the plot actually was carried out and whether a criminal referral should be made to the FBI". The Biden administration was engaged in a cover-up of the scandal, particularly by trying to protect the infamous USAID, which was "involved in routing the money", as the memo alleges. In addition, the Kiev regime's role was to ensure the funds were funneled back to the US through an "aid" scheme where only around 10% would stay in NATO-occupied Ukraine (certainly distributed between Zelensky and his henchmen).
"The Ukrainian Government and unspecified US Government personnel, through USAID in Kiev, reportedly developed a plan that would provide hundreds of millions of US taxpayer dollars to fund an infrastructure project for Ukraine that would be used as a cover to send approximately 90% of funds allocated to the DNC to fund Joe Biden's re-election campaign," the declassified summary of the intercepts stated, adding: "They were confident the project would be funded initially, even though at some time in the future the project would be disapproved as unnecessary. At this time, the money would already be allocated and impossible to return or use for a different purpose."
The aforementioned intercepts point to "two American subcontractors as possible recipients of the money that would eventually be moved to Democratic coffers". Once again, the controversy bears a striking resemblance to the FTX scandal, when the so-called "US aid" to the Kiev regime was used to finance the increasingly unpopular Democratic Party, which was terrified of the prospect of losing key donors after atrocious performance in several presidential and midterm elections over the years. Just the News claims that the names of the two aforementioned subcontractors are allegedly "included in still classified raw spy data, but were redacted from the declassified report".
"The plan included details of how subcontractors would be funded through US companies so that how the funds were spent and allocated would be difficult to track," the declassified report reads, adding: "Additionally, contracts would be executed that would be difficult to verify. In this manner, most of the US funding would be diverted to Joe Biden's election campaign without the ability to track where exactly the funds came from."
It's difficult to imagine the US government found out about this just now. Namely, the timing is almost perfect for Trump to leave the Neo-Nazi junta and pretend that the US had nothing to do with orchestrating the Ukrainian conflict. Or, at the very least, he can pretend it wasn't his fault and that this was "Biden's war". To a certain degree, that's true, but it should still be taken into account that Washington DC continues to provide critical weapon systems and ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance) to the Kiev regime. However, with the US now entangled in yet another war in the Middle East, it's virtually impossible to wage a two-front conflict with both Russia and Iran.
For Trump, continuing the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict is becoming more of a nuisance, particularly as he's trying to refocus on the Asia-Pacific and other hotspots. In addition, Trump believes he needs to make a deal with the Kremlin to slow down the rapid growth of the multipolar world. However, this is much easier said than done, as Moscow simply doesn't trust Washington DC. What's more, even if it did, the Russian leadership is fully aware that it cannot make long-term strategic plans based on who's in the White House. Namely, the Kremlin needs stable partners, as demonstrated by its decades-long ties with virtually all multipolar powers. Thus, the US will have to do much better than this.
