Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky spoke to US President Donald Trump this afternoon in what the US president said was a "very good call". For some reaction to this afternoon's discussion Kira Rudik, Member of the Ukrainian Parliament.

President Donald Trump has made it crystal clear that he intends to end the war in Ukraine as soon as possible, whether or not the outcome is considered fair. To do this, the leader of the free world has ‘paused' aid to Ukraine, which rapidly changed President Zelensky's defiant tone that was witnessed in the last meeting between the two leaders. Cruel? Maybe. Underhanded? Possibly. Effective? Absolutely. For a discussion on US/Ukraine relations, Piers Morgan speaks to Member of Ukrainian Parliament, Kira Rudik, British veteran of the Ukrainian Army Macer Gifford, 'PBD' podcast host Vinny Oshana, decorated Iraq veteran and podcaster from 'Can't Cancel Rob Smith' Rob Smith and author of 'Bad News' and 'Second Class', Batya Ungar Sargon.

As the war in Ukraine continues, America continues its efforts to provide resources and support — with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken going on a European tour dedicated to meeting about the Russia-Ukraine war earlier last week. Meanwhile, Russia remains aggressive, with reports of Russian drones violating NATO airspace and President Putin threatening NATO if they allow Ukraine to strike deeper into the country. For a full update, FOX News Foreign Correspondent Alex Hogan sits down with Ukrainian Parliament member Kira Rudik to discuss how the Ukrainian government is reacting to continued threats from Russia and what resources she believes Ukraine needs if they are to win the war. The First ABC Presidential Debate is in the rearview mirror, but the fallout from the debate continues into the weekend. While most pundits agree that Vice President Kamala Harris came out on top, Co-Anchor of America's Newsroom Bill Hemmer notes that Vice President Harris may not have done enough to change voters' minds. Bill looks ahead to November and notes what former President Trump needs to do in the remaining days to highlight the Vice President's record, and whether or not she will be able to address key policy concerns from Independent voters.  Learn more about your ad choices.

In this conversation, Pat Cox reflects on the new term of the European Parliament and the importance of the rise of the Right in the Union and its member states. He also discusses his work in Ukraine after 2012 – when he led a mission to free political prisoners imprisoned by President Viktor Yanukovych – as well as in more recent years when he has co-directed the Jean Monnet Dialogues which aim to build consensus between the main political parties represented in the Ukrainian Parliament. Pat Cox was President of the European Liberal Democrat Group between 1998 and 2002 and served as President of the European Parliament from 2002 until 2004. In what turned out to be the final phase of the Santer Commission in early 1999, he played a decisive role in establishing parliamentary accountability of the executive. Since 2015, he has been President of the Jean Monnet Foundation for Europe.

In Kyiv, the war against Russia's invasion plays out not only through airstrikes and drones, but also through culture. Well before his full-scale invasion, President Putin was clear in his ahistorical belief that Ukraine is a made-up country, rightfully part of greater Russia. Our first guest, Victoria Nuland, was in Kyiv during the Maidan protests in 2013-14, meeting with pro-democracy protesters as well as then-President Yanukovych. This was the first of many such visits since then. It was just last month that the current Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs was in Kyiv for talks and she joins Christiane from Washington to discuss U.S. support for Ukraine.  Also on today's show: Sergey Markov, Director, Institute of Political Studies in Moscow / Former MP, United Russia; Oleksiy Goncharenko, Member of the Ukrainian Parliament; Gita Gopinath, First Deputy Managing Director, IMF  Learn more about your ad choices.

Over a year of breaking updates and harrowing stories in the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, or as Reagan called them, the “Evil Empire.” What's been going on, what's the history that's brought us here, and what's to be done now?

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut as the Senate wraps up a third day of confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson. Republicans focused on dog whistle politics and offensive, false insinuations about her record, with Lindsey Graham and others resorting to interrupting, mansplaining and outright bullying. Through it all, Judge Jackson showed patience and resolve in defending her record. But before Joy covers this, we bring you news of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin's humiliation on the battlefield, as Russia's war on Ukraine almost enters its second month. NATO now estimates that seven-to-fifteen-thousand Russian troops have been killed in Ukraine, according to a NATO official who spoke to NBC News. Including the Russian troops who have been injured, captured or gone missing, the number could be as high as 30-to-40-thousand total impacted. Russian forces continue to be repelled by Ukraine's nimble fighting force, which has repeatedly managed to outmaneuver them despite being outnumbered and outgunned. Zhan Belenuke, Member of Ukrainian Parliament and an Olympic gold medalist, joins Joy Reid to discuss. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the emerging consensus that the war in Ukraine is reaching a stalemate, if it has not already. Sviatoslav Vakarchuk, former member of Ukrainian Parliament, joins us to discuss. Next we discuss how Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson was incredibly poised throughout her opening Supreme Court confirmation hearing, some calling her the literal opposite of, in her temperament as well as her qualifications, Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh when he went through the process. Senator Cory Booker joins us after expressing the joy, during this hearing, that many feel at seeing Judge Jackson go through the confirmation process as the first Black woman to achieve this milestone.
