Human Events: US Super-Patriot Alexander Vindman Is Secretly Pitching Ukraine a Deal In Which He'd Act As The Very Well-Paid Middle-Man for Defense Sales from the US to His Actual Country

He makes me want to be a better fake patriot.

Documents recently obtained by Human Events show that Alexander Vindman has been pitching the government of Ukraine to obtain lucrative defense contracts. In August 2022, Vindman, operating as CEO of Trident Support, pitched a deck on a Ukraine Weapons Systems Sustainment Center to address problems with Ukraine's weapons management, namely readiness, repair, and maintenance.
Vindman proposed that for $12 million in initial funding, his company Trident Support would bring support closer to the front lines by providing a logistical midpoint from which equipment could be distributed.
The idea behind the proposal is that Trident Support would be a middle-man between NATO weapons and Ukrainian forces, teaching the latter how to operate and repair the equipment, while taking an exorbitant fee from Ukraine to do it.
Personnel who would be employed under the plan would be those who are "highly experienced former soldiers or contractors in Iraq and/or Afghanistan."

The facilities to undertake this mission would be located in Poland, Slovakia, or Romania were it not possible to make that base in Ukraine.

Slides from the Powerpoint deck available at the link.

The deck outlining the proposal was revealed along with court documents showing a dispute over payments.

Vindman insisted that he will be paid in bearclaws, and Ukraine said "We could not possibly produce that many bearclaws to pay off such a huge military contract," and then Vindman screamed "Then you shall all die like the donut-hoarding dogs you are!" and stomped out of the room, chins jiggling in fury.

More than two hundred Democrats in the House agreed with him, along with ten so-called Republicans.

He deserves millions just for that legal innovation.

Usually bad economies don't really hurt the super rich, although it depends on how bad inflation gets. If it costs 2 million dollars to buy a latte, that's gonna hit them pretty hard. Because wages will move up to pay millions but their savings won't go up. Property values won't rise commensurate with the rest of the economy. Jewels won't sell for enough to pay for stuff.

Look at how they react when things go horribly wrong with their ideas. They blame Trump: He messed things up so bad that even OUR wonderful ideas don't work!

Rumors are that Ceausescu, who liked hunting bears, wasn't a very good hunter, so he was presented with trained bears on his hunting escapades and could not tell the difference.
I have even heard that once the bear started dancing in front of him, but don't know how much is true.

>>It's really hard for me to pick on Vindeman for being insubordinate, what with the way the entire military chain of command ignored Trump's orders to get out of Syria.

I mean, the Chairman of The Joint Chiefs said he would inform an enemy of the plans The President of The United States if HE disagreed with them.

You can't get any higher in the insubordination chain than that.

193 Ukraine may well be hopelessly corrupt, but they learned from the master. Our entire military contracting industry was hopelessly corrupt first.

I recently watched a documentary about soldiers in Iraq that showed a soldier going to the mess hall. The meal was a cheeseburger and fries, for which the contractor (KBR, I believe) was paid $28.00. The soldier commented that he often saw people using an extra styrofoam plate to cover their food when they wanted to eat in their tents. He commented that KBR was paid on the basis of how many styrofoam plates were used, so that cheeseburger and fries cost the taxpayer $56.00.

I am also hard anti-US support for war. I said in the first couple days that the US should support with weapons and intelligence but not a thin dime of cash, and no boots, obvsly.

But I think the logic that "NATO was a threat to Russia" is horseshit. Or the logic that Ukr is corrupt -- well, who corrupted them? (hint us.) Or the logic that Ukr is a nazi state. Or the logic that Russia is justified in having a "sphere" where they suck the life out of all their neighbors. And on and on. but I rarely speak up since I feel I am fighting against a lot of Russian propaganda that the Right swallowed whole.

The truth is that Russia will win. Of course they will and that is a shame. Only thing worse is if they lose (re China and islam.) that is a shame for Ukr. The West lost this when we allowed Russia to invade ("Small incursion is ok") and did not explain the consq....

Heh, reminds me of my time riding my bicycle on a University campus in the mid 80's. Car in front of me pulls over, black dude gets out of the driver's side, and white girl gets out of the passenger side -- both screaming at each other. Black dude starts slapping the white girl around, so I drop the bike and intervene.

White girl turns on me and says "What the f*ck are you doin'? This is none of your business!" Black dude says GTFO!

After the initial shock, I went on my merry way and now am much more circumspect when it comes to interfering with domestic squabbles ...

For Immediate Release, May 21, 2014
Remarks by vice President Joe Biden to Romanian Civil Society Groups and Students
Cotroceni Palace, Bucharest, Romania, 2:45 P.M. (Local)

In part, "In this way, corruption has become an instrument of foreign policy for some nations. When politicians can be bought, when courts can be manipulated, when the media becomes a tool of propaganda, there you will find a society that is susceptible to manipulation from the outside. There you’ll find a society that loses control of its own destiny -- not only its political security, but its physical security and military readiness is also compromised.

We’ve recently seen that in Ukraine. We saw how over a decade and a half of corruption, literally has hollowed out their military institutions and weakened that country’s very capacity to defend itself.

So fighting corruption is more than just good government. It’s self-defense. It’s a guarantor of your national sovereignty."

I take a middle position. NATO does protect insiders by providing the US nuke umbrella. But that is not enough. Europeans should have been looking out for their own security and continent. They didn't *because* of NATO.

The US can not afford to lose NATO to Russia or China, but instead we lost it to globohomo, greta, and open borders. Great job assholes. Everyone with a brain saw all this coming for decades.

Remarks By Vice President Biden On America Central Europe And A Partnership for the 21st Century

In part, "What is true is that we are working to strengthen our relationship with Russia. We believe that a more constructive relationship with Russia will benefit all. But we're not naïve. The truth is we share some common interests: cutting the arsenals of nuclear weapons; securing vulnerable nuclear materials; stabilizing Afghanistan; preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons.

And we also continue to have disagreements with Russia on matters of basic principle. In February, in Munich, Germany, in the very first major foreign policy speech of our administration, I enunciated our administration's outline for foreign policy, and I made clear our core principles. The United States stands against the 19th century notion of "spheres of influence." We will not tolerate it, nor will we be co-opted by it."

321 So, Trident can produce a comprehensive plan 5 days after funding approval? I have to think that would take quite a bit of coordination between gov agencies (US and Uke) as well as system manufacturers.

What's interesting is what's not on the supported equipment list. It makes me suspect that someone got a look at other sustainment plans and this one covers gaps in those.

I really doubt the claims of planning in 5 days and IOC in 10 days. Unless there's been a hefty speculative investment in planning and hiring already.
