Donald Trump says things are "very much on track" after a conversation a short time ago with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. Washington DC correspondent Simon Marks spoke to Corin Dann.

  Author & Researcher Jim DiEugenio Jim is often on Black Op Radio to promote the JFK research published at Kennedys and King. John Washburn has written an impressive 3 part original series on the Tippit murder. Washburn used the testimony from Dallas Police officers to prove that the "official" Tippit story is false. Why did the Dallas Police Department need to create stories about Tippit's murder? The Warren Commission tried to hide internal dissent among the members about the "official" results. Not all WC members were aligned with what Allan Dulles & John J. McCLoy were saying. Richard Russell, Cooper & Boggs were the first people to publicaly break away from the Warren Commission. Paul Abbott has written a story about Leon Hubert & Burt Griffin with deep concerns about the Ruby investigation. The connections between Jack Ruby & Lee Oswald were not thoroughly investigated by the Commission. Johnny Cairns has written a long review on Larry Hancock & Boylan release "The Oswald Puzzle". Donald Trump & Zelensky battled it out in the White House last week. Watch Here. Len & Jim discuss the latest book by Scott Horton, "Provoked". Find Here. Reading "Provoked" inspired Jim to publish a 4 part series on his Substack. View here. Len listens to Mike Benz, Jeffrey Sachs, Col. Douglas MacGregor, Scott Horton, Joe Rogan etc... To understand what's happening now, you almost need to unlearn everything you've been told. Horton writes that the US organized coupes against Belarus & Georgia during the George Bush administration. These were not spontaneous uprisings, these were American sponsored events, pouring tens of millions into the area. The "Orange Revolution" in Ukraine was to get rid of the 4th Ukrainian President, Viktor Yanukovych. Mike Benz refers to these events as "Rent-A-Riot" as people are paid to portray themselves as protesters. USAID has financed a lot of these NGOs that have been causing chaos around the world. What is the point of taking NATO & starting the colour revolutions right on the border of Russia? With the fall of the U.S.S.R., were the Neocons preparing for a Cold War II? Kennedy created USAID to help struggling countries with democracy & to compete with Russia. What USAID turned into was a far cry from what Kennedy envisioned, turning into a money laundering mechanism. One of the big arguments that Kennedy had was with John Foster Dulles who threatened to cut off foreign aid. Elon Musk was recently on the Joe Rogan Experience. Watch here. In Canada, the government has removed American made liquor off the shelves. Canadians have no interest in joining a country 36 Trillion in debt.

On Friday, President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy had an intense (like...historically intense) conversation in the Oval Office — when a potential mineral deal signing turned into President Trump kicking President Zelenskyy out of the office.  Many news outlets were quick to criticize this meeting, accusing the President of sucking up to Russian President Vladimir Putin by asking the Ukrainian President some tough questions. So when did asking other foreign leaders tough questions at the White House become a bad thing? Kennedy and Jimmy Failla remind everyone about the nuance and key historical context that lies behind the Russia-Ukraine War. Together, they debunk blind partisanship and explain how people can hate the Russian President while also having reservations about the war in Ukraine. Learn more about your ad choices.

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Adam Gardiner  European leaders are rallying behind Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, saying they will support the country as it seeks a permanent ceasefire with Russia. But unlike what US leaders proposed, European leaders have no desire to give what could be seen as a kind of win to Russia.  All this happening while Russian leaders say the US has largely aligned with Moscow’s vision.

The Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has met with European leaders at a summit in London - for security talks. Europe correspondent Olly Barratt spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Zelensky's much anticipated meeting at the White House finished in an angry clash between the Ukrainian President, JD Vance and Donald Trump. The Vice President accused Zelensky of leading 'propaganda tours' and culminated in the Ukrainian President leaving the White House without a signed minerals deal. Was Zelensky ambushed? European leaders quickly scrambled to show their solidarity for Ukraine, whilst attempting to maintain good relations with America. How high are the stakes for Starmer ahead of the peace summit held by No.10 on Sunday?

Does Zelensky actually want peace in Ukraine? In this video, we dive into the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and whether Zelensky truly wants peace.  Donald Trump recently made headlines by delivering a hard-hitting message about the Ukrainian President's actions, particularly after his apparent disrespect toward the United States, a long-time supporter of Ukraine's war effort. While Trump advocates for peace, European leaders, including those in London, have been slow to take action on ending the war. Germany and Poland have already made it clear they won't send troops to a peace force, raising questions about their commitment to a resolution. The mineral deal served as a potential roadmap to end the bloodshed, but Zelensky's actions have thrown it into disarray. We explore the need for Ukraine to return to the negotiating table with Russia and the potential role of peace advocates like Trump and J.D. Vance in shaping the future of the conflict. Join me as we analyse the key factors shaping this crisis and the role of international diplomacy in achieving peace.

US President Donald Trump has said he expects the Ukrainian President, Volodymyr Zelensky, to travel to Washington on Friday to sign a deal on mineral resources. Alexander Rodnyansky is a Professor of Economics and former advisor to the Ukrainian president; he tells us what is known about the deal...

Hosts: Erin Rider and Adam Gardiner  Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he would be willing to resign his office if it meant a lasting peace for Ukraine. As part of this – however – he says NATO membership for the country would need to be on the table. At the same time, the United States has joined Russia in voting against a UN resolution about the war. Adam and Erin finish the show with updates on Ukraine. 

Hosts: Erin Rider and Adam Gardiner On the Hill 2025: Takes on the session from a new legislator  We’re down to single digits – after today, only 9 days left in the 2025 Legislative General Session. Inside Sources kicks off our special show at the Utah State Capitol with a look at the whole process. State Representative Clint Okerlund is a new legislator; he joins us to talk about how he’s doing with the firehose of information.    On the Hill 2025: Adjustments to criminal justice system  Addressing jail overcrowding, banning state funds from being used for syringe exchange programs, and reclassifying habitual offenders – these are just a few of the things State Representative Karianne Lisonbee hopes to tackle in her bill on the criminal justice system. She joins us to go in-depth on House Bill 312: Criminal Justice Amendments.    On the Hill 2025: Potential path to creating a new county  It’s been more than 100 years since Utah got a new county – the last time was in 1918 with the establishment of Daggett County. But as Utah’s population grows – especially along the Wasatch Front – it's brought up questions about county creation. Currently, Utah has 29 counties. Could it get to an even 30? State Rep. Jordan Teuscher joins us to discuss a bill he’s running about this topic.    On the Hill 2025: Changes to property taxes  Property taxes -- they’re super important but can also be kind of boring and complicated. But property taxes affect just about anyone, including those who don’t own their property. State Senator Dan McCay joins Inside Sources to talk about a bill he’s working on that would make some changes to property taxes, including the addition of a few tax programs residents could opt into.    Pushback on recent DOGE decisions, including Musk’s email to federal workers and layoffs  The Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) made waves this weekend when an email went out to federal workers asking for them to give five bullet points of what they did last week. Elon Musk – writing on X – said those who don’t respond will be fired. Does he have authority to do this? At the same time, members of Congress are speaking out against the way the layoffs are going. The Inside Sources hosts discuss what DOGE is doing and whether or not they agree with the decisions.    On the Hill 2025: What’s left to accomplish in the last 9 days of the session?  One thing we like to do when we’re on Capitol Hill is discuss various issues and bills with a Democrat and a Republican. Unfortunately, our regular Republican for this segment couldn’t join us today, so we chat with our regular Democrat instead! State Representative Andrew Stoddard gives a take on the final few days of the session and what he still wants to do before the session ends.    Ukrainian president says he’d resign if it meant peace  Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says he would be willing to resign his office if it meant a lasting peace for Ukraine. As part of this – however – he says NATO membership for the country would need to be on the table. At the same time, the United States has joined Russia in voting against a UN resolution about the war. Adam and Erin finish the show with updates on Ukraine.

Donald Trump attacked the Ukrainian President overnight, describing him as a 'dictator' and saying he's done a 'terrible job.' In return, Zelensky has accused Trump of 'living in a disinformation space.' The West has invested a huge amount of capital in the fight against Russia – and failed to secure peace.

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  Utah’s involvement in a lawsuit over disability protections  17 states – including Utah – are involved in a lawsuit against the federal government over Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act. This section defines what constitutes a disability. It was updated during the Biden Administration, changing the definition of a disability to include gender dysphoria. The lawsuit’s been confusing some people because it says the gender dysphoria part is unconstitutional, but also that the whole section is unconstitutional.

He also talks about protecting Section 504 as a whole.    On the Hill 2025: Transparency vs. privacy with signatures gathered in an election  During the primary and general elections last year, there was quite a bit of controversy and discussion over the privacy of signatures gathered for candidates to get on the ballot.
