According to a new account in the NYT:
On the night of the Maidan coup in Ukraine ten years ago, Feb. 24th 2014, Ukraine's post-coup spy chief Valentyn Nalyvaichenko arrived at his new headquarters and made his first call to "the C.I.A. station chief and the local head of MI6."
He asked them "for help in rebuilding the agency from the ground up, and proposed a three-way partnership."
Why was Ukraine's new spy chief already on such good terms with the CIA and MI6, literally on the night of a coup that brought his new government to power? ๐ค
โHe went to an office and called the C.I.A. station chief and the local head of MI6. It was near midnight but he summoned them to the building, asked for help in rebuilding the agency from the ground up, and proposed a three-way partnership. "That's how it all started,' Mr. Nalyvaichenko said.โ

The NYT piece about the CIA waging a "Spy War" in Ukraine for "decades" is going viral for all the right reasons on our side of the Info War, and all the wrong reasons on [theirs.]
What's especially enticing about this seeming narrative about-face by THE narrative-setter of the Globalist Hegemon is the fact that it's being mirrored by a series of similar rhetorical retreats by other MSM outlets along parallel tracks.
While the NYT frames the CIA (one of the most hated agencies in the world and the one that drew the most fire from Putin this month) as clandestine heroes, WAPO has chosen a different theater to backtrack in, reporting that the US Military Industrial Complex and Deep State at large view the Ukraine-Russia conflict as a "bountiful opportunity."
They can couch that language in as many asides about key learnings and MIL strategy as they want, but the language stands out to an audience grown both weary and increasingly wary of the central narrative and its progenitors.

๐Former top officials from Donald Trumpโs administration are warning he is likely to use a second term to overhaul the nationโs spy agencies in a way that could lead to an unprecedented level of politicization of intelligence.
Trump, who already tried to revamp intelligence agencies during his first term, is likely to re-up those plans โ and push even harder to replace people perceived as hostile to his political agenda with inexperienced loyalists, according to interviews with more than a dozen people who worked in his administration.
That could empower the former presidentโs top subordinates to shield him from information that doesnโt conform with his politics and even change the wording of assessments with which he disagrees, many said.

Not sure what to make of this. Kanekoa is usually super solid with his research, which is why I'm giving this the time, but the website and YouTube video of the alleged attackers testimony looks pretty barren and questionable.
We'll see if the MSM tries to discredit this - that'll be a tell right there.
