Stolen Top Secret Docs

I have been wondering if the timing Putin's invasion of the Ukraine has anything to do with TFG's theft of the top secret documents & how much the rest of the planet is in peril from this high risk security breach.
Has anyone else linked these incidents together?

It is not far fetched to assume Putin was given classified intelligence by Trump.

So how did that impact Putin's decision making?

Putin wanted to invade Ukraine for a number of reasons that were very important to him.

So he would have most likely wanted help from Trump to do so.

Maybe DoD and CIA slipped him bogus information, knowing it would go straight to Putin. He didn't exactly breeze through Ukraine as he figured to.

Timing of the search? I suspect that "people" abroad saw some deals going down that had to be stopped in a hurry. Besides the many meetings with Russians, there was the very recent meeting with Orban (a flunky) and with the Saudi "golfers".

Could be wrong. That many people do not jump into action unless there's a big deal going down.

Tooo many shady characters. Out of a James Bond movie.

Long story?

THE RUSSIAN PLAN

Many pieces seem to "fit". Putin wanted Ukraine "forever" and had his boy elected president to make it his.
