Neither NATO nor "nazis" in Ukraine were ever a threat to Russia; that's a pretext but some people evidently fall for it anyway.

NATO was perfectly content to buy energy from Russia, not invade it.

NATO should not even exist, as it should have been disbanded when the Soviet Union and Warsaw Pact collapsed. Instead, NATO steadily pushed east absorbing former Warsaw Pact counties and even former Soviet republics. When that was not enough prodding, the US fostered a regime change in Ukraine and then Ukraine changed its constitution to allow it to join NATO. That was seem by Russia as an existential threat as both France and Germany have invaded Russia through Ukraine and Russia did not want the Black Sea to be a NATO lake. If that had not been enough to goad Russia, I am sure the Biden et al would have antagonized further, like have Japan take back Sakhalin or get Georgia to allow a NATO naval base at Batumi. The goal was to destroy Russia by provoking them into a fight. Why did the US blow up the Nordstream pipeline?

She's panicking. Maybe she'll sing a musical about losing her USAID based funding.
