In this special conversation with Fiona Hill, Brookings Institution Senior Fellow and former senior director for European and Russian affairs on the National Security Council from 2017 to 2019, we dive into Russia and it's modern day leader Vladimir Putin. Fiona, who served as deputy assistant to President Trump and was present at the notorious Helsinki Summit between Presidents Trump and Putin provides her reaction to President Biden's meeting with President Putin in Geneva, and her observations on Putin's relationships with past U.S. Presidents. The conversation then digs deep into Fiona's views on Vladimir Putin and his leadership style, drawing comparisons and contrasts between Putin and the Tsars of Russia and the leaders of the Soviet Union. Fiona, who was a co-author of the seminal Putin biography Mr. Putin, does suggest that there are certainly weaknesses in Putin's armor, and details why Putin may have reason to fear opposition figures like Alexei Navalny. We also dig into Russia's foreign policy -- especially regarding its position given its prominent neighbor to the south, China.
Charlie breaks down the highly publicized and overly scrutinized meeting between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Joe Biden to uncover an underreported but very plausible explanation for some very odd interactions between the two world leaders. Calling out the activist media's fraudulent outrage at Trump's Helsinki Summit compared to the fawning praise of Biden's "secret meeting" with Putin, Charlie explores why various clues suggest that Vladimir Putin quite possibly has dirt on the Bidens, and how that is resulting in a completely feckless response to the Russian president that endangers America's foreign policy agenda in Eastern Europe and beyond.

Trump's Europe trip was a rare multi-tiered fiasco, a kind of mille feuille of fiascos, at which the disasters operated on many levels--his alienation of our allies, his insults to our troops, his vanity, his cozying up to villains, his fear of getting wet, his complete lack of understanding of how the world works. In fact, it may be the worst overseas trip by any president ever...since Trump's Helsinki Summit. Meanwhile, North Korea seems to be building more missile bases and everything else on the planet is worse off than it was two years ago. So...that's bad. David Sanger, Rosa Brooks, and Evelyn Farkas discuss and, to the extent possible, make sense of it all. Tune in!Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/deepstateradio.

Russian President Vladimir Putin in July, singled out American-born businessman Bill Browder at a joint press conference in Helsinki, Finland. Putin, standing alongside President Trump, named Browder and his business dealings. Browder was the largest foreign investor in Russia until he was arrested in 2005 and expelled from the country. His corporate documents were seized by Russian authorities, he says, and the young lawyer he hired to investigate—Sergei Magnitsky—was arrested and died in prison. Seeking justice, Browder lobbied for the Magnitsky Act, which he says prevents “Russian torturers and murderers” from using America’s banking system. In this discussion with CNN’s Suzanne Malveaux, Browder talks about the Helsinki summit, the infamous Trump Tower meeting, and why he says he’s not afraid of Putin. This discussion was held on July 27th at the Resnick Aspen Action Forum in Aspen, Colorado. Show Notes Listen to the Aspen Ideas to Go episode, CRISPR: A Crack in Creation.

Times, June 23, 2018) News Roundup Facebook posts biggest single-day loss in stock market history Facebook’s market value dropped $119 billion Thursday after the company released a poor quarterly report. The single-day drop was the biggest in stock market history and represented 19% of Facebook’s market cap , taking it down to $510 billion. In its quarterly report, Facebook reported usership that fell short of expectations by 20 million active daily users, and its revenue fell short of analyst estimates by some $130 million for the second quarter. And at $1.72 Facebook’s earnings per share was also two cents lower than Thompson Reuters had estimated. Facebook and Amazon set lobbying records in 2Q18 Facebook and Amazon set new lobbying records for themselves in the second quarter, spending over $7 million combined on its lobbying efforts. This is according to lobbying disclosure records. Facebook spent $3.6 million to deal with the Cambridge Analytica and Russian hacking debacles. Amazon spent some $3.47 million. Google spent its fair amount on lobbying as well, coming in at $5.9 million for the second quarter alone. Ali Breland reports in Politico. Is Trump doing enough to stave off Russian attacks on the midterms? President Donald Trump met with members of the National Security Council on Friday to discuss cyber threats to the rapidly approaching midterm election. The White House released a statement that said in part, “The president has made it clear that his Administration will not tolerate foreign interference in our elections from any nation state or other malicious actors.” The statement made no specific mention of Russia. But the president tweeted that he is concerned that Russia might help Democrats—even though Russian President Vladimir Putin stated during the infamous Helsinki Summit that he wanted Trump to be re-elected in 2020. In addition, the Daily Beast reported that Russian hackers recently attempted to access Senator Claire McCaskill’s emails as she launched her 2018 re-election bid. Senator McCaskill acknowledged the attempt, saying it was “not successful”. House Democrats said that the White House’s effort to prevent election interference is insubstantial. They want a more robust action plan from the White House. And Politico reported that most states are unprepared for cyberattacks. Even though Congress appropriated $380 million back in March to help states replace their voting machines, Politico reports that only 14 states and DC plan to do so before he 2020 presidential election. Over in the UK, British lawmakers are proposing that tech companies be held liable for publishing fake news on their sites. Facebook signs binding agreement with Washington State not to help advertisers target customers on the basis of race Facebook signed a binding agreement with Washington State Attorney General Bob Ferguson last week in which the company promised not to allow advertisers to target users on the basis of race. This would include ads for housing, employment, credit, insurance and “public accommodations”. However, advertisers may not need to target race directly. They could target and exclude on the basis of race using non-racial proxies for race. Facebook could potentially still have the ability to cross-reference facial recognition data and users’ likes and dislikes to build psychometric profiles that show trends that correlate with race, which advertisers could then use without creating a paper trail. DOJ Investigates Sinclair Finally, the Justice Department is now investigating whether Sinclair, Tribune and others engaged in anticompetitive behavior that affected advertising sales rates. The Wall Street Journal reports that the DOJ is looking into whether Sinclair and Tribune coordinated in such a way as to generate higher rates for tv ad spots. The DOJ had stumbled upon potential evidence of coordination practices as it was reviewing Sinclair’s proposed $3.9 billion acquisition of Tribune, which is now in the hands of administrative law judge after the FCC voted unanimously not to approve the acquisition.

With credit due to Joni Mitchell for the lyric "captive on a carousel of time," the title of today's episode refers to two topics that come up in conversation for Wendy Sheridan, Mary McGinley, and Robin Renée this week, plus the sense of overwhelm that in times like these, can pervade the experience of current events. July 25th is an occasion for several remembrances and celebrations, including National Merry-Go-Round Day. Robin spotted a "Permit Pete" at the beach, and Wendy reveals her decision about running for political office. Later, we learn that it is Captive Nations Week, which gets nicknamed "Irony Week" because while the proclamation calls for freedom for all, it feels as if the United States is moving in the opposite direction. All three discuss the Helsinki Summit and contemplate pathways toward finding our most effective activism, reaching others about the importance of awareness of the political climate, and manifesting the best outcome for the 2018 midterm elections and beyond.

Russia is trying to elevate its power in Europe and on the world stage and Russia’s leader Vladimir Putin is manipulating the United States and other countries in the process, according to professor, author and expert on Russia Dr. Steven Miner. To gain prestige and power, Putin is wanting to split the NATO alliance as well as disrupt and denigrate European and American politics and democracies, says Dr. Miner. Disruption plays into Putin’s plans. President Donald Trump gave the appearance of aiding that cause by his recent “bullying tactics” at the NATO Summit in Brussels, supporting an opponent of British Prime Minister Theresa May, and not supporting his own intelligence agencies during a press conference in Helsinki. All of these factors, notes Dr. Miner, assists Putin and his strategy. He describes Putin as a master manipulator of people and situations for Russia’s own ends. This is what appears to have happened at the Helsinki Summit and with Russia’s interference with the 2016 U.S. Presidential election, Dr. Miner adds. In addition to the Helsinki Summit, Dr. Miner notes Putin’s policy was in play with Maria Butina who was recently arrested in Washington, D.C. for being an unregistered Russia agent and for attempting to influence American politics. Dr. Miner further states that Pres. Trump’s invitation for Putin to visit the White House this fall gives Putin and Russia additional status and prestige. Trump’s verbiage about Russia and his friendliness with Putin belies the fact that Russia directly interceded in America’s electoral and democratic processes, Miner adds. Dr. Miner is a professor at Ohio University with a specialty in Russia/Soviet and East European history. He is an award winning author and just completed writing a book called “The Furies Unleashed: The Soviet People at War, 1941-1945. He is a former director of the Contemporary History Institute at Ohio University.

In this episode we look at some of the fallout from the Helsinki Summit and the press conference that followed it, during which Putin said he would like Russian law enforcement to question certain American citizens. Who does he want to talk to, and why? We go into some recent Russian history.

The Dead Pigeon of Russian Collusion. In the aftermath of the Helsinki Summit, Conrad Black believes President Trump will "win this round with the Deep State" in spite of its efforts to "maintain the fraud of collusion." But can the bipartisan shadow government successfully push things off past November? We offer our "Tale of Two Republican Senators." While Lindsey Graham describes the Steele Dossier as a piece of "garbage" and says the spying on Team Trump was certainly NOT justified, we listen to Liddle Marco Rubio claim altogether otherwise. Why the difference of opinion? We suggest the underlying reasons may point to uncomfortable truths about the Republican Establishment. Relatedly, we ponder WHY the Carter Page FISA Application was released, all of a sudden, seemingly out of the blue. Cryptic speculations. Meanwhile, the disgraced James Comey comes out of the closet as a Democrat just in time for the socialist takeover. Great timing, as usual. We listen to Maria Bartiromo assess Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the future of the Democratic Party. Also, we definitively answer the question as to why the Unhinged Left hates Donald Trump so darned much. With Listener Calls & Music via Sigrid and Dwight Yoakam. Sacred Song from George Jones.

After the wild week in the news in the US, Katy and Tiffany take a brief break from their recent Rome-based episodes to discuss the events surrounding the now infamous Helsinki Summit. In the course of their commiserations, they wonder what is harder: having to live through the chaos as it unfolds in your own back yard, or living a world away in an expat bubble and not having anyone to talk to about it. What's worse: inundation or isolation? Which leads to another observation: when you live so long out of your home country, and especially when you acquire citizenship to your adopted country and start a family there, you can begin to lose the allegiance to your home country. Does that make you less patriotic? Can expats be excused for closing their eyes and focusing on life in their new country, or should they remain just as involved as they would be if they were still living in their hometown. Katy and Tiffany discuss these and more related topics on Episode 215 {SUMMIT} of The Bittersweet Life podcast. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SPONSOR THE SHOW: Reach expats, future expats, and travelers all over the world.

Jack continues his well earned rest, leaving Thomas Marshall and Paul James to bring the heat! Alas, heat they did not bring, but a healthy discussion about the Helsinki Summit (and fallout), James Gunn’s removal from Guardians of the Galaxy 3, Elon Musk’s slow melting down and subsequent loss of faith from investors, and Epic Games’ changing the game, giving back over half of the money they have collected from the Unreal Engine Marketplace. Unreal. Late in the piece, the episode devolved into talking too much about Pokémon GO. Great game. At least the boys agreed on something...

On July 16th President Donald Trump is scheduled to travel to Helsinki, Finland to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin for a summit. The meeting could not be any more controversial in light of Russia's interference in the 2016 election, which many think is the reason Donald Trump is president. And certainly, fueling the fire is the Mueller probe into whether or not Trump colluded with the Russians to gain power, and then obstructed justice to hide the truth. The Halli Casser-Jayne Show welcomes Franz Sedelmayer, a former friend of the Russian President and the only individual to sue and collect money from Vladimir Putin's Russia, Franz Sedelmayer's unique story told in his book WELCOME TO PUTINGRAD, THE INCREDIBLE STORY OF THE ONLY MAN TO COLLECT MONEY FROM VLADIMIR PUTIN. Putin expert Sedelmeyer's insight into Putin offers a rare glimpse into the Russian President.At the age of 26, Franz Sedelmayer traveled to St. Petersburg, Russia and in a short period of time built an enormously successful police supply and training company. Who was one of young Sedelmayer's big supporters? The young deputy mayor of St. Petersburg, a former KGB lieutenant colonel. His name? Vladimir Putin. The two young men formed a bond, and at Putin's request Sedelmayer created and trained the KGB's first Western-style SWAT team. Then, Sedelmayer's Russian company was expropriated by President Boris Yeltsin and his ambitious, political, and ruthless onetime friend, Vladimir Putin. Why did Putin sell out his friend? Was Putin paid off? In fact, shortly thereafter Putin landed his first Moscow post. Not to take what happened sitting down, Franz Sedelmayer went into battle to retrieve his assets and and won—but Russia refused to pay damages. Undeterred, he persevered, waging a 20-year campaign against the Kremlin and its current president, Vladimir Putin, his former friend.His unique story told in his book WELCOME TO PUTINGRAD, THE INCREDIBLE STORY OF THE ONLY MAN TO COLLECT MONEY FROM VLADIMIR PUTIN.
