A lot of liberal blue-checks are really, really upset that President Trump has named Ambassador Richard Grenell to be his acting director of national intelligence, but MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow got right to work. Not content to just write him off as a Twitter troll, Maddow found a photo that blows the lid off the whole thing, and it leads back to … Ukraine.

What on earth is the ambassador to Germany doing in Ukraine? It looks like he was voicing U.S. opposition to the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which would carry gas from Russia to … wait for it … Germany.
Holy shit you guys. She doesn’t realize why he was there! https://t.co/8YkWtMbPGo

Maddow is already concocting a Conspiracy Theory https://t.co/tLwgY4BFRA

And how does gas get to Germany? https://t.co/ZbbMjKvue9

Most of Germany’s gas is shipped through Ukraine, you utter fool https://t.co/IuKr8FdWaq

Also in the tweet you posted, @RichardGrenell is showing his *opposition* to NordStream2, which is a RUSSIAN pipeline Putin considers one of his most important strategic projects. Good luck fitting that into your Collusion Hoax jigsaw crazy cat lady pic.twitter.com/SU5MojihRp

Ummm Nordstream 2/Gazprom is kind of a big deal. Kind of Russia’s economic lifeline. Trump/Congress sanctioned Germany over it. Crazy that the Ambassador to Germany would involve himself in anything this strategically critical or any other matter related to Germany.

Hopefully Acting ONDI Richard Grenell got the goods on the Bidens & Obama in the Ukraine. Be nice to have a threefer. Or as someone like Maddow would call it, a Throuple. https://t.co/ujuVTbacJB
