It is always helpful to remember that those in elite political circles do what they are told to do by the intelligence community. Funding for Ukraine is the highest priority right now. All the DC politicians and beltway pundits are pushing the same story. And we all know why. Without such funding, the money laundering spigot would drop to a trickle.

Most of the public with any intelligence at all understand that the CIA staged a coup in 2014 to remove a duly elected Ukrainian government from office. This was done because the head of that government was friendly with Russia.
