The Susan Rice/Blinkers/Vindman cabal needs a proper sitting down with Trump/Vance. I hope the FBI would check into this band and see how much they pilfered the USAid honey pot. A little transparency goes a long way.

The articles I read stated that this meeting was actually pointless and didn't have to involve travel. The premise was to simply sign the mining treaty, have some lunch, and go home. The negotiations had long past (probably the reason why Rubio looks so annoyed during the meeting).

Some of those articles asserted a "conspiracy theory" that Z-man had met before the meeting with various neo-cons (Vindman, Nuland, Rice...) who recommended that Z-man act the way he did. Which may explain why he looked so confused/surprised by the meeting's result.

Third, I thought that Trump's mining deal was a clever way to create a financial interest worth defending in Ukraine without sending soldiers or money. It would be in Ukraine's interest to protect it. It would act as a deterrent to others.
