Honestly this all seems too good to be fully true to me, like a wish fulfillment fantasy. The NED’s new guard installed at this high a level can’t be this ignorant of the org’s purpose, right? Or perhaps they really can be. Perhaps senior NED staff will have to be re-replaced, or else the whole project scuttled and replaced by something else. Maybe this kind of work has to return to its clandestine roots.

It’s absolutely incredible that the NED would even grant an interview to the gray zone in the first place! No wonder that old neocon is so mad at that unforced error. But there are no good people in this fight, so I hope the NED gives us more delicious drama before collapsing under the weight of the beef between the nonprofit industrial complex millennial ghouls and the bloodless neocon boomer ghouls.

She didn't even know what the phrase "CIA cut out" meant. Half way through, it dawns on her that they might be anti-american and she asks if they're pro lukashenko.
