Hopefully you won't categorize a 2014 BBC article transcribing a leaked call from Victoria Nuland as Russian Propaganda. She openly conspires as to who they wanna put as president of Ukraine, and propose Yatsenyuk, the guy who would go on to become prime minister after Yanukovich. From the transcribed call:

Nuland: Good. I don't think Klitsch should go into the government. I don't think it's necessary, I don't think it's a good idea.

Nuland: [Breaks in] I think Yats is the guy who's got the economic experience, the governing experience. He's the... what he needs is Klitsch and Tyahnybok on the outside.

Oh Lawd! I've never heard about the Nuland telephone call! Not a banal conversation between two diplomats discussing who their preferences are for the election that's ongoing in the country they reside in. There it is, folks! The big gotcha that CIA was involved.

That's the standard of evidence we're working with here, folks.
