    I guess the NYTimes interviewed home back in 2023?

    Did he volunteer to fight in Ukraine war?

    In 2023, Routh told the New York Times he spent several months in Ukraine amid the war with Russia. He also said he had tried recruiting Afghan soldiers who opposed the Taliban to fight in Ukraine.

      A fucking spook cut-out trafficking mercenaries from Afghanistan to Ukraine goes rogue and takes a pot shot at a presidential candidate?

      This is going to give conspiracy nuts a hard on for the next five years, easy. What are the odds Jack Ruby plugs him a few times in the gut on national camera before the end of next week?

        He seems more like an independent nutter who suffers from mania than any kind of an actual spook.

        Or just another one of the oddballs, liars and sociopaths who are the focus of the article.
