I heard that all the time too. From Russian propaganda mainly. Is someone else independently claiming such theories as well?

These are justifications to give the people of USA as reasons to keep supporting them. Especially the conservatist side needs convincing right now, because their tribe is at odds with this particular war for some reason.

I feel you are falsely juxtaposing these different things as similar. USA is not throwing ukrainians against Russia, they are supporting a people who are fighting for the survival of their nation.

US conservatives are relatively supportive of the Kremlin because key party leaders have ties to Putin.
