Thanks for the clarifying link. I still don't see the issue here... so he thought Russia was not about to invade Ukraine before it actually happened, but in fact he was very wrong? so?

He obviously had a negative opinion about the US government and very little trust for it, so he is quite biased, but that seems expected given his history. I don't read this as him somehow supporting the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Plus all he said was that the US gov provided insufficient evidence of their certainty that Russia was about to invade. I recall all the conservative media outlets at the time making fun of the man that gave the press release when a journalist asked him about evidence and he responded that the evidence was that he said that Russia was about to invade.
