Vladimir Putin launched his brutal invasion of Ukraine in order to recreate the glory and power of the former USSR with his satrap-oligarchs in charge of the satellite countries under a Pan-Slavic Union who will then pay billions in tribute to the Kremlin while ostensibly protecting Russian-speaking minorities in those countries. These satraps will exploit the resources for themselves and the Kremlin, like the rare earths in Ukraine.
As intolerable for the US to have nuclear weapons 90 miles from its shore in Cuba in 1962, having a powerful NATO country on its border was deemed intolerable by the Kremlin. Most of the invasions the Russian people suffered through arose from the West, not the East: the Teutonic Knights, Sweden, Napoleon, the Kaiser, Der Fuhrer. Russia and the USSR have wanted buffer zones between themselves and powerful Western countries.
Moreover, watching Ukraine not only join NATO through the Partnership for Peace (PFP) program but also the EU was deemed dangerous by the Kremlin. Under the EU, Ukrainians would prosper and enjoy civil liberties, raising envy and resentment with the poor people suffering under Vladimir Putin and Alexander Lukashenko in Belarus, which would have a destabilizing influence on their despotic regimes.

After the Manchurian Candidate was released in 1962 and just weeks prior to JFK's assassination on 22 Nov 1963, the TV show Outer Limits aired "One Hundred Days of the Dragon," regarding a sinister foreign plot to take over the US from within which almost succeeds:The Outer Limits

Hi Corky:
Here is an update to the veteran's story from YouTube you contributed a few days ago: metro.co.uk
If not for NYC, NYS would be a Red State, with vast counties and congressional districts (CDs) in Long Island and upstate populated by slices of gun-toting white bread. Bruce Blakeman, who last month barely won re-election in Nassau County, bleated that Dummkopf Trumpf has not discouraged him from seeking statewide office. When he wasn't dozing, the Dotard-in-Chief offered no preference Monday when reporters asked about Blakeman and the vapid Elise Stefanik, appearing to signal that he doesn't mind them competing. "He's great and she's great," Trumpf sniveled at the White House. "They're both great people."
NYS Governor Kathy Hochul more overtly welcomed the competition. "If there's a Republican primary, it makes it much more entertaining for me," Hochul said about Blakeman's launch. "Let them go at it. Let's see how they out-MAGA each other."
The rightwing good-for-nothing Islamophobic Bruce Blakeman has committed a vile litany of blasphemies which you can read about here: ZDS Sufferer
Nothing would undermine NYC Mayor-elect Muslim Zohran Mamdani more than a Republican NYS governor, so expect AIPAC and AIPAC Democrats to support either Bruce "Blech!" Blakeman or Elise "No Platform" Stefanik. The unpopular congresswoman was already thrown under the bus twice this year by Dummkopf Trumpf. The zoftig Stefanik might consider taking Ozempic to get on the sexual predator's good side by losing a little bit of her girth.
Republican farmers who shamelessly accept these socialist handouts are merely hypocrites without scruple or self-respect: static.politico.com
And for decades, the children of white farmers had colleges and programs just for them, like the Land Grant Colleges or agricultural institutes. Not many of those schools in Harlem or Detroit.
