KYIV – The Mainstream Media is aghast at the massive corruption being found in the Ukrainian government, to the tune of over one hundred million dollars of grift of Western aid. This is only the beginning.
However, the issue is not that corruption has been found, the issue is that the corruption is being outed in the press. Western governments have long known of Ukrainian officials’ theft of American financial assistance.
Sources on the ground tell CDM that ‘new FBI’ people have been sent to work in the Ukrainian prosecutors office and the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine.
“New collaborative agreements have been signed”, we are told.
In other words, this is a beginning of the end of the Zelenskiy regime. Someone has made the decision to pull the plug, as Ukraine loses territory on the battlefield and the military situation has become dire. Therefore, blame needs to be assigned, and it looks like Zelenskiy is in the crosshairs.

Western mainstream media almost immediately launched into damage control, with one op-ed in Bloomberg trying its best to say it’s not at all Ukraine’s fault, but is actually somehow… the Kremlin behind it(!). Here’s how it begins:
There are at least two legitimate responses to allegations that a group of highly placed Ukrainian officials have skimmed $100 million from contracts to repair and protect their nation’s critical energy infrastructure, even as Russian attacks plunge the nation into darkness and cold. One is to despair, the other to celebrate. The second, strange as it may sound, is more logical.
This episode goes to the heart of why Ukrainians are fighting at all. The war began in 2014, after then President Viktor Yanukovych was toppled by mass protests against the epic scale of his corruption and the captivity to Moscow this created. Graft was the glue with which the Kremlin had held…
So even with high officials in Zelensky’s government are caught red-handed by a Ukrainian internal investigation, the ultimate fault lies in Moscow, according to some MSM accounts.
