#0176 Did Washington Foresee the Russo-Ukraine Dilemma? Anti-Christ Pop Culture Meltdown, Trans-Monkeys, Dangers of Free Speech, The Ballad of Elmer the Cadaver, and The Book Corner Introduction Washington's Farewell Address Cut 1: I want to let you know that I will not be running for re-election. I'm grateful for the opportunity to serve, but I need to step down, and let me tell you why I've resolved to do so. I have served two terms, and that is enough for anyone—I will retire now. Cut 2: Be wary of the forces that seek to weaken the national unity essential to defense—both internal and external, ideologically and materially. The only means for continued freedom is national unity and individual solidarity in the bonds of blood, creed, and nationality. Cut 3: Your nation has the right to your allegiance because it provides for your safety, and your duty to fellow citizens extends from civic charity to the defense of the nation. We all hold the same general beliefs, religion, and goals—national identity is key to maintaining the liberty so many have fought and died for. The esoteric considerations aside, we must also address the conflicting interests of the States, which are outweighed by the interest of the whole. You must learn to consider the individual interests of the States within the context of the whole of the United States. Your individual States will have their own autonomy, only within the value and benefit of the whole of the United States. The balance between States' rights and federal oversight has been laid out in our new Constitution, ratified by all. Each authority has its sphere of jurisdiction, subject to change only by the ratification of amendments. Cut 4: The purpose of the checks and balances between the States and the branches of the federal government is to ensure a level playing field for all factions present in political debate. The violation or manipulation of these checks and balances is inevitably harmful, no matter how noble or ignoble the pursuit. Cut 5: Be aware that popular factions can misuse the system of checks and balances to create tyrants, who will then seek to dismantle the very system they used to claim power. Cut 6: It's important to avoid altering the basic structure of the Constitution through violations or amendments, as this will dilute the purpose of the checks and balances and eventually break a perfectly serviceable constitution. Commentary: What did we see with the threat of packing the Supreme Court, removing the Electoral College, or now with the attempts from the legislative and judicial branches to hinder reform of the executive branch? Cut 7: The more control you give political parties, the more autocratic they will become. This stems from the darker impulses of human nature, existent in any nation, but partially mitigated within the design of the American Constitution. It's natural for political parties to become entrenched within the body politic, their interests gaining greater bearing than the actual interests of the people. Cut 8: It is natural, then, for political parties to act in retaliation and revenge against each other between elections, formulating a bizarre despotism and oligarchy. Cut 9: You must be aware of this tendency of political parties and prevent it if you wish to avoid a permanent political ruling class levying autocratic policies upon the people. Cut 10: If you allow this sort of political party structure to arise, you'll live to witness ill-founded rivalries that fester into political riots, insurrection, and corruption. Cut 11: Now, on the issue of foreign influence—avoid becoming so entrenched in the quarrels of other nations that you lose sight of the needs of your own country. Otherwise, nationalists will eventually be dubbed "uncaring" when asked to give their own necessities to governments that have no obligation to America or her citizens. Cut 12: Keep our interests in Europe as economically centered as possible, because Europe is a political tinderbox—frequently aflame—and will drag America into endless wars for nations that have proved to hold little interest in our well-being. Why should Americans die on foreign soil for people who care so little for us and consistently start conflicts? Cut 13: Avoid permanent alliances. Keep the alliances we do make, and remain out of other countries' disputes as often as possible. Trump vs. Zelensky Cut 14: Trump and Zelensky have had a falling out. Upon looking at the first draft of President Trump's proposal, Zelensky had this reaction:Watch here Cut 15: How did that get in there? Cut 16: No, Zelensky was even more self-destructive than that…Watch here Cut 17: Trump responded accordingly:Watch here Cut 18: It's important to remember that Russia and Ukraine have been contesting the border for decades, and the atrocities committed by Kiev—shelling civilian targets—predate the current war:Read more Cut 19: The war also hasn't stopped Zelensky from engaging in collective punishment on citizens in the Donetsk region (supposedly a region he wishes to have back under Ukrainian rule).Read more Cut 20: The exchange between Trump and Zelensky comes after Zelensky sanctioned his main political opposition in any future election, former president Petro Poroshenko.Read more Media Meltdown Cut 21: "I don't care, Margaret... if you think free speech enabled Hitler, that's nonsense."—Margaret vs. Rubio Rubio on JD Vance's speech on the decline of free speech in Germany and Europe:Watch here Pop Culture News Cut 22: LGBT actor Cynthia Erivo will be playing our Lord in Jesus Christ Superstar. What does this say about our culture's view on gender, cultural revisionism, and our Lord? Cut 23: Tom Hanks plays an "icky racist white man" on SNL 50. What does this say about our culture's view on race, cultural revisionism, and Christianity? Proper apologetics for each? NIH Lied, Monkeys Died Cut 24: NIH-funded research controversy What are they looking for? What are they doing? Is this the first actual medical study for the long-term effects on transgender humans via monkeys? But what about chemsex? What about HIV susceptibility? Monkeys cannot be infected with HIV—so are we looking at more gain-of-function research? What was happening here? Nicki Knows Facts: The Ballad of Elmer the Cadaver Cuts 25-34 The Book Corner: The Great Divorce, Chapters 3-4 Cuts 35-44 Closing Final Question:If you could get only one item of furniture for your wedding/anniversary, and the price was no issue, what would you ask for?

pWotD Episode 2860: Volodymyr Zelenskyy Welcome to Popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 454,298 views on Saturday, 1 March 2025 our article of the day is Volodymyr Zelenskyy.Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy (born 25 January 1978) is a Ukrainian politician and former entertainer who has served as the sixth and current president of Ukraine since 2019, most notably during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine, which has been ongoing since February 2022.Born to a Ukrainian Jewish family, Zelenskyy grew up as a native Russian speaker in Kryvyi Rih, a major city of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast in central Ukraine. He obtained a degree in law from the Kryvyi Rih Institute of Economics, but never practised law and pursued a career in comedy and entertainment. He created the production company Kvartal 95, which produced films, cartoons, and TV shows including the TV series Servant of the People, in which Zelenskyy played a fictional Ukrainian president. The series aired from 2015 to 2019 and was immensely popular. A political party with the same name as the TV show was created in March 2018 by employees of Kvartal 95.Zelenskyy announced his candidacy in the 2019 presidential election on the evening of 31 December 2018, alongside the New Year's Eve address of then-president Petro Poroshenko on the TV channel 1+1. A political outsider, he had already become one of the frontrunners in opinion polls for the election months before he formally declared his candidacy. He won the election with 73.23 percent of the vote in the second round, defeating Poroshenko in the biggest landslide in the history of Ukrainian presidential elections.Zelenskyy has positioned himself as an anti-establishment and anti-corruption figure. As president, he has been a proponent of e-government and of unity between the Ukrainian- and Russian-speaking parts of the country's population.: 11–13  His communication style makes extensive use of social media, particularly Instagram.: 7–10  His party won a landslide victory in the snap legislative election held shortly after his inauguration as president. During the first two years of his administration, Zelenskyy oversaw the lifting of legal immunity for members of parliament (the Verkhovna Rada), the country's response to the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent economic recession, and some limited progress in tackling corruption in Ukraine. A poll in May 2021 by the Rating Group gave Zelenskyy the highest trust rating out of all Ukrainian presidents, and ranked him as the second-best president after Leonid Kuchma.During his presidential campaign, Zelenskyy promised to end Ukraine's protracted conflict with Russia, and he has attempted to engage in dialogue with Russian president Vladimir Putin. His administration faced an escalation of tensions with Russia in 2021, culminating in Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, which is still ongoing. Zelenskyy's strategy during the Russian military buildup was to calm the Ukrainian populace and assure the international community that Ukraine was not seeking to retaliate. He initially distanced himself from warnings of an imminent war, while also calling for security guarantees and military support from NATO to "withstand" the threat. When Russia launched its full-scale invasion, Zelenskyy remained in Kyiv, declining international offers to evacuate him from the capital under attack; he declared martial law across Ukraine and a general mobilisation of the armed forces. Zelenskyy was named the Time Person of the Year for 2022. He has frequently visited frontline and newly liberated areas, and has regularly appeared unshaven and wearing an olive-green, military-style shirt instead of a suit.Zelenskyy's term was originally scheduled to end in May 2024, but the ongoing Russian invasion and the resulting ongoing martial law prevented the regularly scheduled presidential election from being conducted. He is expected to remain president for the duration of the Russo-Ukrainian War. Due to this extension of his term, Zelenskyy is the second-longest serving president in Ukrainian history, after only Kuchma.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:47 UTC on Sunday, 2 March 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Volodymyr Zelenskyy on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Jasmine.

Nov. 17, 2023 - Israel agreed on Friday to let fuel trucks into Gaza and promised "no limitation" on aid requested by the United Nations. Power & Politics speaks to the UN organization responsible for the Palestinian territories. Plus, with the world's focus shifted to the Israel-Hamas war, former Ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko weighs in on where Ukraine's fight against Russia stands.

Blaze Media editor in chief Matt Peterson and actor/producer Matt Marsden join the show to discuss Biden's house of cards collapsing as a damning interview alleges that former Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin was fired over a bribe. Shokin alleges that he was fired due to then-Vice President Joe Biden's threat to withhold $1 billion from Ukraine. Shokin claims he was investigating Burisma and says he received no complaints about his work but was fired due to pressure on then-President Petro Poroshenko. The House Oversight Committee said that President Biden lied at least 16 different times about his family's elaborate business schemes. Trump's legal team is scrambling after a court set March 4, 2024, as the date to begin the Washington, D.C., trial against the former president. Prosecutors have alleged that Trump interfered in the 2020 election and the transfer of power. Climate activists with the group Seven Circles learned a tough lesson this weekend after they obstructed the traffic heading into Burning Man, leading to a significant traffic jam on a Nevada road.

In this episode, over 80% of Canadians believe it's time for a change in government. Readout of VP Biden's call with President Petro Poroshenko of Ukraine.

A few weeks ago, I heard these people talking about Ukraine and at one point somebody mentioned the president who was in there before Zelensky, and he didn't know who he was or how all of that went down with Zelensky getting in to power, but I didn't hold it against him because I didn't know either.  But now next time when I see him, I'm going to go right up to him and say something like "hey you stupid moron!!  How come you don't know about Petro Poroshenko or that Zelensky grew up speaking Russian?" and then I bash them on the head with this stick I started carrying around.   You too can start bashing people around when they don't learn intricate details about the things that matter most to you, and you can say it all started here.  Support the showhunchbunny.com

A common claim among Democrats is that, "It's not that people don't want to be educated, they just haven't been given the opportunity, thus government spending on education needs to increase." If there were ever a group of people capable of "educating" themselves it would be American celebrities. Yet it seems as though there is a secret contest among them to see who could be the most historically, economically, and philosophically illiterate. The most recent example comes from Chris Rock's "Selective Outrage" Netflix special where he says, "It's the Royal Family...they invented colonialism." Here is a brief list of empires who engaged in Colonialism before the Royal Family did: Marhasi Empire Islamic Empires Akkadian Empire Hittite empire Assyrian Empire Roman Empire Babylonian Empire Persian Empire Shang Dynasty Egyptian Empire Zhou Dynasty Macedonian Empire Qin Dynasty Han Dynasty Armenian Empire Xin Dynasty Gallic Empire Hunnic Empire Latin Empire Mongol Empire Other examples from Rock's "Selective Outrage": January 6th "You see the Capitol riots? White men trying to overthrow the government, that they run!" - Chris Rock It does not occur to the Social Justice Race Essentialist mind that people who are the same race (and gender) have differing ideas on what is just or unjust. Just because two people are of the same race and gender, it in no way means the person (or group) with power is acting on behalf of those who share their gender or race. It's akin to saying: "How did a war occur in China between Mao's Communists and Chiang's Nationalists? They were all Chinese! How was there a Russian Civil War between Reds and Whites? They were all Russian!" Ukraine "America's in horrible shape. We got it worse, than Ukraine. Yeah I said it...Ukraine is united, and America is clearly divided." - Chris Rock I guess after Rock researched the stark contrast between Ukrainian separatists in the Donbas supporting Viktor Yanukovych and those in 2014 supporting Petro Poroshenko leading to an eight-year civil war killing 14,000 people, Rock came to the conclusion that like White men, all Ukrainians are on the same page. I was not aware that Volodymyr Zelenskyy was on the same page with the people who he enslaved via conscription to fight in his military, the political parties he banned, and the media he nationalized. Jim Crow Rock makes a great point at the end about the evils of Jim Crow Laws which forbid Blacks from seeing White dentists. It's pure evil for a third party to forcibly restrict two consenting parties from engaging in a mutually beneficial voluntary economic exchange. This is the central goal of the Libertarian Institute, and on this issue we stand firmly with Chris Rock!

Today is the one-year anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. And while much of the world is marking this solemn event with very visible displays of solidarity with Ukraine, there is still no obvious path to ending the war. Former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has laid out what he calls "The Poroshenko Plan" -- seven steps he believes the world needs to take to cripple Vladimir Putin and the Russian economy. He joins the show to discuss. To learn more about how CNN protects listener privacy, visit cnn.com/privacy

Gas lighting has become a mainstay of establishment politics. If you don't like gas prices then buy an electric car says Pete Buttigieg, US Secretary of Transportation - that way you “never have to worry about gas prices again.” This is the same Pete who was dropped off with his bike from an SUV for a photo-op suggesting he rode to work. If inflation is too high and the cost of living, including gas, is beyond what you can afford then, as Stacey Abrams who ran for Governor of Georgia suggested, have an abortion. After all, “having children is why you are worried about the price of gas.” This is the same Abrams who would not concede her loss, just like Hillary Clinton. President Biden had simpler advice on inflation, though, just buy generic cereal. Sean Patrick Maloney of New York said something similar, just eat Chef Boyardee. But even so, the idea of inflation, which is at a forty year high, may just be a made-up thing anyway. It doesn't exist. As Joy Reed of MSNBC said, it's “not part of the normal lexicon of the way people talk… they've been taught.”
 
Donald Trump has been used in the same way, as a tool of gas lighting and as a pulse to determine political opinion. He is the 100 Flowers President and a symbol of a modern day Operation Trust. Take note: Donald Trump was accused of colluding with Russia to rig a Presidential election, putting our National Security at risk, acting like a dictator, extorting Ukraine, and on August 8, 2022, he became the victim as a former President of a politically motivated FBI raid on his Florida residence Mar-a-Lago over supposedly classified documents. 

However, it was actually the Clintons who brokered backdoor deals with the Russians - Uranium 1 - and it was Hillary Clinton who ran an unprotected server with sensitive information, including emails. It was also Joe Biden, and his supporters, who began their power trip with mountains of executive orders and calls to disband Congressional procedure and ignore Supreme Court Rulings, or pack the court. Turns out it was actually President Joe Biden, on video, who admitted he threatened Ukraine that if they did not fire a prosecutor investigating his criminal, crackhead son, they would not be getting a billion dollar aid package. Furthermore, Joe Biden is on tape in 2016 telling the former Ukrainian President, Petro Poroshenko, to keep the money tight so that incoming President Trump won't figure out what is happening. 

So what is happening here? Now we see that the pattern and plot thickens. We just learned that as Vice President, Joe Biden was keeping, illegally, classified documents at the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement. This is the same University of Penn that received millions in CCP donations - $3 in 2020 and a total of $258 from China, Saudi Arabia, and other foreign countries. 

Not only did the same intelligence/government apparatus illegally spy on an incoming President in 2016, but virtually every government agency, politically corrupt official, and corporation, was using social media giants like Twitter as their personal censor. Requests poured into Twitter and Facebook from the incoming Biden team to censor the Hunter Biden laptop story, as confirmed by Mark Zuckerberg himself. Requests came from everyone from Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs to Dr Scott Gottlieb, former FDA commissioner, now sitting board member of Pfizer. Censor political options and censor information contrary to the propaganda of multi-national corporations. Another report form the San Francisco Standard just unveiled that countless Doctors on social media promoting by LGBTQ rhetoric and pandemic mitigation were actually fake accounts. The White House also used Facebook as an official censor, blatantly telling the company: “We are gravely concerned that your service is one of the top drivers of vaccine hesitancy - period.” This included an attempt at censoring a viral video posted by Fox news broadcaster Tucker Carlson about adverse events of the Covid vaccine. The response: “Regardless of popularity, the Tucker Carlson video does not qualify for removal under our policies. Following the government's decision yesterday, we are allowing claims that the Johnson and Johnson vaccine causes blood clots, but we still do not allow categorical claims that it or other vaccines are unsafe or ineffective,” Facebook wrote to former Biden White House senior advisor for Covid-19 response Andy Slavitt. Going even further, they demanded Facebook do the same pertaining to any information about January 6, which they said was “plotted, in large part, by your platform.” 



We have watched how hundreds of billions of US tax dollars, and money that doesn't exist, which greatly contributes to inflation, have been shipped overseas to a country that has had intimate, shady, and treasonous, business ties with the President and his family - i.e. Ukraine. We watched how that money supported ‘fighting tactics' - such as setting up military equipment next to ‘schools and hospitals' - that according to Amnesty International ‘endanger civilians'. Then we watched that money pour back into the United States, largely to Democrats and the President, but also to Republicans, in a monumental money laundering operation run by Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX. We continue to watch the political establishment of America that should be concerned with our boarder, our people, our defence, our flag, etc., neglect such things in favor of protecting a border and people on the other side of the world, while flying their flag, even when it is clear that Ukraine is run by a dictator who has stripped away ‘rights' of publishing, press, free speech, and religion, in a war that is a losing proposition no matter how morally fought. 


Watching Zelensky (or Zelenskyy - a spelling that changes like the pronunciation of Kiev and Kyiv) literally meet with Hollywood actors, celebrities, etc., in the middle of a war, reminds us of President Joe Biden literally conducting staged events at a fake White House set. Watching Zelensky and his Nazi Azov march into our Capitol and demand money is shocking to say the least, calling it an investment. It is not an investment in anything except the military industrial complex, the Democratic Party, poverty, starvation, and global conflict. 


The entirety of human civilization is so fractured that breathing wrong can be seen as an aggressive action deserving of prison time. Opposition and free thought are no longer allowed anywhere under any circumstance. Earlier in 2022 President Joe Biden infamously stated that republicans opposed to his agenda were fascists. Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre went further, stating the if you don't think like the majority then you are an extremist, despite the fact that Biden's approval rating is below 40%. 

Recently we have seen both representative Dan Crenshaw and Fox News anchor Brian Kilmeade continue this rhetoric. The 20 Republicans refusing to support Kevin McCarthy for speaker were called terrorists, saboteurs, and insurrectionists. 

The new Secretary of State for Arizona, the drug cartel attorney Adrain Fontes, who claimed he'd work for all Arizonians, is also now claiming we must protect our elections from ‘Maga Fascists'. The new Attorney General in Arizona, Kris Mayes, seconded that by stating ‘we have to remain vigilant' in order to protect democracy. Any question of election tampering, rigging, manipulation, etc., is seen as worse than raping a child. Even in Brazil where convicted criminal, and therefore disqualified candidate, Luiz Lula da Silva, won the presidency over Jair Bolsonaro, the people have been protesting non-stop over what they know was a rigged election. Protest over the weekend involved mobs entering the grounds of the Brazilian government peacefully. The New York Times obviously compared this to January 6, 2021, conveniently since it happened on the weekend anniversary, suggesting that the two events were cut from the same cloth. Invocations of January 6 imply what that event has been used to invoke, the holocaust, Hiroshima, Pearl Harbor, etc. All of this while ignoring Ray Epps, who texted his nephew that morning stating: “I was in the front with a few others. I also orchestrated it.” Want proof, just listen and watch the videos where he is literally orchestrating the organization of marching capitol while Trump supporters claim he is a FED. 

Meanwhile in Mexico a civil war has broken out and remnants of it are beginning to pour across the southern boarder. Not only is this a reality denied by so many, but when President Joe Biden recently visited El Paso, Texas, the streets were cleaned up quickly to cultivate the appearance of a functioning city. 


What this tells us is that homelessness, drugs, violence, crime, border issues, supply chain problems and power outages (including open sabotage), are all easy problems to fix. They only persist because they benefit the people in power.

Mozarts äldre syster kan ha legat bakom flera av hans violinkonserter, enligt en teori. Var det så att hon efter broderns död smög in sina egna kompositioner bland hans efterlämnade notsamlingar? Programledare: Thomas Nordegren. Bisittare: Louise Epstein. Hur mycket av Mozarts musik skrevs av hans storasyster?Maria Anna Walburga Ignatia Mozart, kallad Nannerl, var hunsad av sin far, och trots sina uppenbara musikaliska talanger levde hon större delen av sitt liv en tillbakadragen tillvaro långt från rampljuset. Att hon komponerade vet vi eftersom det framgår av syskonens korrespondens. Inga av hennes kompositioner finns bevarade - officiellt. Men nu föreslår en pensionerad dirigent och professor, Martin Jarvis, att Nannerl kan vara den verklige upphovsmannen bakom flera av Mozarts violinkonserter. Hur vanligt är det att systrar och fruar ligger bakom kända kompositörers verk? Det diskuterar vi med musikkritikern Edit Söderström och konsertmästare Malin Broman.Hotet från RysslandIdag möts USAs utrikesminister och Ukrainas president Volodymyr Zelenskyj, för att diskutera hotet från Ryssland. Samtidigt är Zelenskyj inblandad i en konflikt med den förre presidenten Petro Poroshenko, som står åtalad för landsförräderi. Varför väljer man att fokusera på interna konflikter i en tid när säkerhetsläget är så allvarligt, och Ukraina skulle behöva stå enat mot Ryssland? Fredrik Wadström, Ukrainakännare och tidigare Sveriges Radios korrespondent i Moskva, gör en analys.Drönarna över kärnkraftverkenOch på tal om säkerhetsläget så ska vi också prata om drönarna över kärnkraftverken. Är de hjärnspöken eller ryska militärdrönare ute på spaningsuppdrag? Och vilken skada skulle de kunna göra i så fall?

In 2020, Oxford University Press published a second edition of Serhy Yekelchyk's Ukraine: What Everyone Needs to Know (Oxford UP, 2020). This series is based on the reference format that allows to concisely present the most essential information on both generic and most recent acute issues. One will find in this addition answers to the questions pertaining to Kyivan Rus, the Cossacks, as well as the notorious Pereiaslav Treaty of 1654. In addition to this information, the book contains chapters that concisely describe both the Orange Revolution and the Euromaidan. These chapters are followed by inquiries into Russia's occupation of the Crimea and the Donbas war which is supported by the Kremlin. Yekelchyk emphasizes that the Euromaidan was, on the one hand, the Ukrainians' response to the corrupt regime which was being normalized by Yanukovych and his supporters; on the other hand, it was also a response to the turn to Russia, which Yanukovych promoted and supported: “Popular dissatisfaction with the corrupt regime had been mounting for years, but the sudden diplomatic turn from Europe to Russia was simply the last straw” (93). For the Ukrainians, “Europe” represented democratic values which were systematically violated by Russia: “‘Europe' served as a popular shorthand slogan implying democracy, rule of law, and economic opportunity—all the things ordinary citizens found lacking in Yanukovych's Ukraine” (93). Russia's aggression against Ukraine is viewed by Yekelchyk as part of Putin's ambitions to restore the mightiness of Russia—in terms of global positioning—within the traditions of both the Russian Empire and the Soviet Union. Yekelchyk's book also contains brief inquiries into the most recent developments around the Russo-Ukrainian conflict on the international level: the evaluation of the presidency of Petro Poroshenko and his decisions during the years of the most active conflict; the investigation of the shooting down of the Malaysia Airlines passenger flight; the international sanctions against Russia; the recent controversy about the Steinmeier Formula. There are sections which address the alleged meddling of the Ukrainian authorities in the 2016 presidential election in the US and the current presidency of Volodymyr Zelensky. With Ukraine: What Everyone Needs to Know, Serhy Yekelchyk shares his outstanding expertise that helps understand the complex overlaps and developments that shape the historical and political environment in contemporary Ukraine.

The case for coronavirus hysteria collapses even further as the CDC changes its guidelines and admits that the virus does not spread easily if at all through contaminated surfaces. In other words, the masks and gloves are basically useless. Republican Governor Ron DeSantis takes a victory lap, the alarmist mayor of Atlanta makes excuses, and MSNBC's Mika Scarborough has an on-air meltdown. Then, leaked audio surfaces of Joe Biden discussing with former Ukraine president Petro Poroshenko the decision to fire the prosecutor looking into Joe's son in exchange for a billion dollar loan guarantee.

Ucrânia e Rússia concordam com cessar-fogo total no leste da Ucrânia antes do fim de 2019 Sob olhares de Emmanuel Macron e Angela Merkel, presidentes fizeram a primeira reunião desde que Zelensky tomou posse. Conflito separatista no leste da Ucrânia deixou dezenas de milhares de mortos desde 2014. Os presidentes da Rússia e da Ucrânia, Vladimir Putin e Volodymyr Zelensky, concordaram durante encontro nesta segunda-feira (9) com um cessar-fogo total no leste ucraniano antes do fim do ano. Deverá haver, ainda, uma troca de prisioneiros no mesmo prazo. Na cúpula em Paris e sob os olhos do presidente da França, Emmanuel Macron, e da chanceler da Alemanha, Angela Merkel, os dois conversaram pela primeira vez desde a posse do líder ucraniano. "Os lados se comprometem com uma implementação completa e abrangente do cessar-fogo, fortalecida pela implementação de todas as medidas necessárias de apoio ao cessar-fogo, antes do final do ano de 2019", disse o comunicado oficial divulgado ao fim da reunião. Segundo a Reuters, Putin afirmou que queria mudanças na Constituição da Ucrânia — para dar um status especial à região de Donbass, uma das áreas disputadas no conflito. O presidente russo afirmou que eram necessários mais pontos de passagem entre a linha de frente no leste da Ucrânia para civis e a implementação de uma anistia para as pessoas envolvidas no conflito. Zelensky, por sua vez, chamou o encontro de "muito positivo", mas disse que muitas questões ainda não estavam resolvidas após o encontro. Ele afirmou ter insistido que a Ucrânia deve ter controle total sobre suas áreas no leste e que não cederia qualquer um de seus territórios. Os dois países já haviam assinado um acordo de cessar-fogo, em Minsk, na Bielorrússia, em 2015. A cúpula desta segunda-feira é a primeira ocasião em que os quatro líderes se encontram nesse formato de reunião — com as quatro lideranças — desde 2016. Conflito entre Rússia e Ucrânia Desde 2014, um conflito entre separatistas russos no leste da Ucrânia e forças pró-Kiev deixou de 13 mil a 14 mil mortos. Em meio à crise, a Rússia anexou a península da Crimeia — que diversos países ainda reconhecem como território ucraniano. Eleito neste ano, Zelensky defendeu durante a campanha que somente uma mudança de poder na Rússia permitiria que a Ucrânia retomasse a Crimeia. No entanto, a cobertura da imprensa russa era mais favorável ao atual presidente do que aos demais candidatos — até porque o presidente anterior e candidato derrotado, Petro Poroshenko, tinha discurso mais duro em relação a Moscou. Porém, ucranianos pressionam Zelensky a manter uma postura mais rígida contra o separatismo russo no leste. Na véspera do encontro em Paris, milhares de manifestantes marcharam em Kiev para que o presidente "defendesse a Ucrânia" durante a reunião.

On July 25, 2019, Trump called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and asked him for a favor: a public announcement of investigations into Trump's political opponents. After he hung up, White House lawyers immediately sprang into action, burying the records of the incriminating phone call on a secret server and swearing those on the line to secrecy.That call was part of a broader effort, a shadow foreign policy agenda in which a coterie of Trump advisers—including Rudy Giuliani, Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland, and Special Envoy to Ukraine Kurt Volker—demanded political favors in exchange for first a White House meeting and, later, $400 million in desperately needed military aid. In this episode, host Max Bergmann outlines how that extortion scheme came to be, starting with the Trump administration's attempts to build a relationship with the new Ukrainian government and leading to the infamous July 25 call that prompted a whistleblower complaint and launched impeachment proceedings. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Donald Trump's efforts to extort the Ukrainian government for his own political gain are now at the center of the ongoing impeachment proceedings. But how did we get here? To understand that, we'll need to go back to the former Ukrainian president, Petro Poroshenko, and explore his efforts to get closer to the Trump administration. In this episode of The Asset, host Max Bergmann, the director of The Moscow Project, an initiative of the Center for American Progress Action Fund, explains Ukraine's mad scramble to develop relationships with Trump and his inner circle after the 2016 election. As Russia sought to weaken Ukraine, in part by fighting a war, running disinformation and cyber attacks, and funneling money to fuel corruption, Ukraine increasingly found itself stuck between Vladimir Putin's Russia and the Trump administration.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In 2016, Donald Trump conspired with a foreign government to become President of the United States. On July 25, 2019, with the 2020 election around the corner, he decided to do it again.The first time around, it was collusion, aiding and abetting Russia's attack on American democracy. This time, it was extortion, demanding the Ukrainian government manufacture dirt on Trump's political opponents in exchange for help the country needs to fend off a Russian invasion and chart a democratic future free of Vladimir Putin's Kremlin. But then, a whistleblower inside Trump's own government sounded the alarm. The White House tried to cover it up, but Democrats called out Trump's extortion scheme and moved to impeach him. And Trump did the unthinkable: He confessed.How did we get here? We will provide the backstory to the scandal that launched the impeachment proceedings, from the original efforts by Ukraine and its former president Petro Poroshenko to cozy up to Trump's inner circle, to Rudy Giuliani's efforts to manufacture dirt on Trump's political opponents, to the whistleblower complaint that blew the whole thing open. Join host Max Bergmann, the Director of the Moscow Project at the center for American Progress Action Fund and a veteran of the State Department under Secretaries of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and John Kerry, for season two of “The Asset.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today on Sojourner Truth: The latest on Ukraine as things are heating up between Russia and the United States-backed Ukrainian government. Tensions still simmer from the vote people in the Crimea took to be annexed to Russia, with whom it has a long historical and cultural relationship. A vote that Western powers never recognized and accused Russia of illegally annexing Crimea from Ukraine. Now, both Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump are in Argentina for the G20 Summit. They were expected to have a sit down meeting. Complicating the situation is the Mueller probe. Paul Manafort, who headed the Trump campaign at some point, is said to have lied about his relationship with former Russian-backed President of Ukraine Victor Yanukovych. Yanukovych was overthrown in a U.S.-backed coup and replaced with U.S. and Western-leaning Petro Poroshenko. Our guest is Nicolai Petro, the Silvia-Chandley Professor of Peace Studies and Nonviolence at the University of Rhode Island. He was a Fulbright scholar in Ukraine in 2013-2014, and is the author of a well-received article in The Nation magazine titled "Ukraine's Pinochet Scenario." And, for our weekly Earth Watch, new threats to the Amazon Rainforest with the election of far-right president Bolsonaro to head the government in Brazil. Our guest is Christian Poirier, a senior member of Amazon Watch's team. Having coordinated the Brazil Program since 2009, Christian also led the organization's efforts to encourage a shift toward non-hydro energy alternatives in Brazil's electricity matrix. And the impact of homelessness on women and children. The fastest growing population of the homeless in LA County and across the country are mothers with their children. We're joined by Angela James, she holds a Ph.D. in Sociology, and has written on a variety of topics regarding race, inequality, and family. She is co-author, along with Donna L. Franklin, of the revised paperback edition of Ensuring Inequality: Structural Transformations of the African American Family, Oxford University Press. 2015. Two people have died in immigration detention. Maru Mora Villalpando, herself undocumented and a Mexican activist, organizer and mother, will break all of this down for us. Simultaneously, there is a hunger strike that is underway in Yarl's Wood, which is a women's detention center in the United Kingdom.
