Time Text
And welcome, folks!
This is Truth vs. News, and this is April the 24th.
Wow!
And I'm Donald Reiner, host and producer, and we got a show today, and I tell you, we've got the best people in the world on our program.
We're so blessed, and I thank you, my audience, so much for staying with us.
I've been doing shows for 15, 17 years now, but this These people that we have are just so good.
We have Jim Fetzer, who is the most dangerous mind in America, which is entering its most dangerous time right now.
Things have never been hotter, and you need the shining light to guide us through it.
And we also have Scott Bennett, a military mind, par excellence in military intelligence and other things.
And he's written a good book on Shell Gamer.
He's doing great.
And Holly, she's the most In-depth research where I can imagine.
She just does fantastic.
So I think we got a good show today.
I want to say one word that I appreciate one of our audience so much.
Joe D'Angelo, he was just with us all the time.
He communicated with me so very much and he even communicated with me on the 19th and I found out that he died on the 19th.
I heard from him the day before.
We're going to miss that guy.
He was a good guy.
Thank you for your support.
And right now, Jim, let's just see.
Does Russia have a new missile or some fantastic weapon that's going to save the world?
Vladimir is trying to let the West know that if they think they can push Russia around, it ain't going to happen.
This is a new intercontinental ballistic missile.
Putin nails it as a truly unique weapon.
They've conducted their first test launch of a new Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile that Putin says will provide food for thought for those who try to threaten our country.
Regarded this as a significant event for Russia's defense industry, it's a multi-warhead weapon, and it looks to be virtually unstoppable.
It is a heavy missile intended to replace the Soviet-made Voya missile, codenamed Satan, by the West.
So this is the new Satan.
They say it's capable of penetrating any prospective missile defense, has no analog in the world, and will not for a long time to come.
Meanwhile, Germans are suffering the incompetence of their leaders.
They're being told to reduce their living standard in order to stand with Ukraine.
I think they're going to take a pretty dim view of this.
Amidst discussion of potential total energy embargo on Russia, the supposed health benefits are showering less In an article, it's enough to wash these four body parts while the skin cleanses itself if you let it.
They encourage cutting back on heating, saunas, showers, help the country reduce dependence on Russian energy.
The piece claims avoiding showers gives good bacteria a chance to propagate.
Helping with skin conditions and consuming substances responsible for Body odor.
This way, skin cleans itself, it states.
Arguing dubiously that avoiding washing your body will actually make you smell better.
According to Adler, Germans can save energy and keep themselves clean enough by washing just four areas, their bottom, their armpits, their feet, and their groin.
In some countries, this is colloquially known as a horse wash.
Welcome to Germany Today.
Scott, your thoughts?
Well, one thing Germans know, it's body odor.
They do it well.
Everyone I've ever met usually has a musky scent, so they're already challenged when it comes to bathing.
But I think this is going to precipitate a general political unrest, if not revolution, in Europe when their leaders are being perceived as inflicting harm and injury and degradation upon the people out of this misguided or maliciously conspiratorial agenda to, you know,
to take action against Russia and Putin. to take action against Russia and Putin.
So, you know, the people of Europe are not going to endure gas prices that are three times higher than what they They're not going to endure food prices.
They're not going to endure freezing to death or eating, making those choices.
They would rather overthrow and kill their own political leaders.
Boris Johnson, talk about a guy that deserves to be treated that way.
Macron, all of them.
So the Europeans are not seeing a threat in Russia.
They're just being led, you know, blindly.
And I think it's going to have tremendous blowback.
And I think it's already having tremendous blowback on the Democrats in the West, because people are not buying the stupidity of Joe Biden's Putin is to blame for inflation.
We are not kindergartners, you know, as a nation.
And everyone understands this is a policy agenda based on lies and fraud and discrimination and an over
uh rambunctious military industrial complex and a delusional NATO agenda which should have been uh you know cast aside back in the 1990s and instead they've they've uh led this this uh really this this uh tragic error that could blow up into a war and as Scott Ritter said if they started a war with Russia NATO would lose and every European country would lose and the United States would lose we are a tiger
When it comes to weaponry and the story of the Russian Sarmat missile is a premium example of their superior technology as well as their superior military training.
Scott Ritter said it very well, we used to train hard in the 1980s We have lost that capability and the wokeness that infects the American military is absolutely no match for the Russian military that is fighting an existential battle and really is fighting to liberate the oppressed people who are being genocided by the Ukrainian Nazis led and financed by the United States and Britain and elsewhere.
So this is a This is a game that Europe and NATO and the United States are going to lose.
And we're being billed tremendous amounts of money for it as well, Jim.
And of course, Ukraine is led by a heroic figure who wears women's shoes and plays a piano with his dong.
Holly, your thoughts?
You got Holly off guard with that one, Jim.
Hey, Jim, you crack me up sometimes.
You got some good one-liners there.
We have to laugh at this, though.
I mean, talking about how everyone needs to be dirty for the war effort and all this sort of stuff.
We were told that, you know, stay home, you know, stay separate together, you know, during the pandemic and alone together and all this absurdity.
And then they're pivoting to the strange economy that we're seeing right now.
And we have to give up and we have to ride our bicycle and stop taking showers for the war effort now and the wartime economy.
And then they're going to say, well, you can't take a shower and you have to ride your bike because of global warming or global weirding.
They're trying to destroy people's quality of life any way that they can, whether it's through war or the climate change and through a pandemic.
I mean, they're just going to keep on cycling these different excuses to basically destroy Europe's quality of living and henceforth the West in general.
I think you're right.
Yeah, for the sake of Ukraine, we can no longer drive automobiles.
We're going to have to ride bicycles.
Here's some of the anti-Russian propaganda out there, and there's a lot of it.
Notice this is a massive strip mining operation run by Putin on behalf of Russia, ripping up Ukraine.
And look at the massive bodies they're attributing to Russia, when we know it's the Azov battalion that is murdering Ukrainians, to blame it on Russia.
Meanwhile, a Ukrainian official reports that Russia has captured 42 villages in Donetsk in a single day.
Here's an actual photograph of some of what's taking place.
They're almost hauntingly beautiful.
Meanwhile, the Department of Defense of the United States has released a list of weapons we have transferred to Ukraine.
It is stunning!
The Department of Defense published a fact sheet on U.S.
security assistance for Ukraine as though we weren't doing enough or to demonstrate we're doing way too much.
Since the beginning of the Biden admin, the U.S.
has committed more than $4 billion, including about $3.4 billion since the beginning of Russia's, they call it unprovoked, but Russia.
Vladimir Putin explained exactly why it was a necessity back on February 24th, referring to the West as an empire of lies.
You can find it on my blog.
As of April 22nd, U.S.
security had included over 1,400 stingers, over 5,500 javelins, over 14,000 other anti-armor systems, 700 switchblade tactical UAE vehicles, 90 155-millimeter howitzers, 90 155-millimeter howitzers, 183,000 155 military artillery rounds, 72 tactical vehicles to tow them, 16 MI-17 choppers, hundreds of armored high mobility multipurpose
hundreds of armored high mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles, 200 M13 armored personnel carriers, over 7,000 small arms, over 50,000 rounds, 50,000 50 million rounds of ammunition, 75,000 sets of armor and helmet, 120 Phoenix Ghost tactical unmanned aerial system.
You think that's a lot?
Well, you ain't seen nothing yet.
Laser guided rocket system, new unmanned aerial systems, unmanned coastal defense vessel, 14 counter artillery radars, four counter motor radars,
Two Air Surveillance Radars, M18A1 Claymore Anti-Personnel Munitions, C4 Explosives and Demolition Equipment, Tactical Secure Communications Systems, Night Vision Devices, Thermal Imagery Optics and Laser Range Finders, Commercial Satellite Imagery Services, Explosive Ordnance Deposal Protection Gear, Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear Protective Equipment, Medical Supplies, including First Aid Kits.
Now listen to this, an historic statement from India.
I am so impressed.
When the people in Palestine are losing their lives, being raped and murdered, there's no cry from anybody, no passion.
When the same thing happens in Syria, we hear nothing.
When the same thing happens in Libya, we hear nothing.
When the same thing happens in Iraq, we hear nothing.
When the Ukrainians are violating the rights of other Ukrainians, Particularly in the Donbass region.
There's nobody crying for those people.
What is the reason for that?
What about India?
Why is there nobody in this country raising the concerns of the Indian minorities, of the Christians and the Muslims whose rights are being violated by the Indian government?
Nobody in this country is saying anything about it.
Now, NATO went on and bombed many of the Russian allies.
Russia could do absolutely nothing about it and stayed out of it.
What did Russia say?
Demilitarization.
Stay away from my Russian borders.
If you notice what has been happening since 1990, they are coming closer and closer and closer to the Russian border until they will make Russia so weak that Russia will have no other option but to give in to them.
That is what it is all about.
But who is the root cause of this whole problem?
It is clearly the West and the United States of America that is the root cause of all the mayhem and chaos and destruction all over the world.
Let's talk about the biological laboratories which is funded by the Pentagon in Ukraine.
Where is it coming from?
Why are they getting involved in those?
Let's talk about the number of people that were massacred by the Ukrainians who have been detained without trial.
Nobody has said anything about that as well.
Let's talk about the shelling of the hospitals and the schools and the massacre and the mass graves that were found in Ukraine.
Nobody says anything about that.
What is Russia asking for?
Russia is saying stay away from my borders and stay away from me.
All you have been doing and remember Ukraine is being used as a fool by the United States and the West and they're falling into the trap like many other countries have fallen in the trap previously and that's what it is all about.
Currently, there is a threat to the Russian Republic as a result of them coming closer to the Russian border, the eastern side.
All Russia is saying, stay away, do not collude with the West, because the West, we all know, have a hidden agenda.
What is their agenda?
To want to wipe Russia off the map as well.
That is what it is all about.
Now we come here and we look at one side of the story.
We don't want to give an objective view.
Yes, indeed, it is not good to take sides.
I agree with whoever said that.
But that is what we are doing here.
We are forgetting about those people whose rights are being violated by the Ukrainians themselves.
Absolutely sensational.
You're not going to hear that from any politician in the United States.
What an heroic guy, Scott.
Your thoughts?
I like him very much, and I agree with everything he's been saying.
And this is what life in society and people and governments are boiling down to, the truth tellers and the liars.
uh you know the the the shit eaters and uh those who can discern between the shit and the chocolate pudding and uh this indian guy is saying exactly precisely right the west has uh followed all of these prescriptions since the 1990s and it's been an absolute fiasco and all of the destruction in the world
Despite how you color it as fighting for democracy, or defending America, or defending America's borders, all of it is lies, but all of the bloodshed, mayhem, chaos, and destruction over the last 40 years, if not longer, but since in particular 9-11, since 22 years, has all been launched and orchestrated by the United States.
And that's a terrible legacy, and it will be our death knell, and you're already witnessing.
So all of the world, India, Pakistan, Iran, Saudi Arabia, all of these countries that were formerly, you know, on the side of the United States, essentially, are all switching over to Russia.
And I think Europe is doing that too.
Europe is now lifting and stopping all of its fuel sanctions against Russia because it's recognizing it will die if it doesn't.
So you're going to witness, I think, a final total shift towards the Russian orbit.
In a collapse of the United States, and it could be a complete collapse of our economy, if we are ostracized and treated like the lepers and the pariahs that we have branded ourselves as, then you will have a stagnant dead nation that resembles the escape from New York.
Federalism will die, of course, and I think you'll you already see the rising of independent state republics Out of the ash of this federalism that has failed.
Florida as an example.
We've talked about it before.
So, you know, we're sort of in the middle of this big continent that I think in many regards is going to get a lot smaller very quickly.
Jim?
Very, very interesting, Scott.
Paula, your thoughts?
Well, I think we are seeing a break away from what they've called the BRICS nations of Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, the other countries like Saudi Arabia, there are other countries that are wanting to join this new world order, if you will.
And India sees the writing on the wall.
They see Russia and China getting behind like a gold standard.
They see the hypocrisy of the West.
India's been colonized by the UK for centuries now.
They've wanted to break away from that.
They want to trade with Russia.
They're openly trading with Russia at this point, even though the UK is trying to push them and trying to get them to stop.
India, as he said, they've spoken out about the hypocrisy of the West, whether you're talking about Palestine or the United States towards Iraq and the Middle East in general, and the complete failure of Afghanistan under Biden recently.
So there's a lot of failures that here in the West in America.
Americans are completely blind to our mainstream media is never going to be critical to any of this.
The mainstream media right now is completely pro-war.
They're completely anti-Russia and acting like every single thing that the United States is doing on an international stage is correct.
And other countries just don't see it that way anymore.
And we're being left out.
And ultimately, it's dangerous for Americans, the more that people stick their head in the sand regarding Well, I think you got it right, Holly.
Don, you wanted to add a word?
What does that word mean, Don?
We don't have any treaties with Ukraine.
the US and Ukraine, are we partners?
Or what relationship do we have? - Yeah, what does that word mean, Don?
We don't have any treaties with Ukraine.
Biden refers to Ukraine as our partner.
I think what he's talking about is they're partners with Nancy Pelosi because her son works there.
They're partners with John Kerry because his son works there.
They're partners with Joe Biden because his son works there.
They're partners with Mitt Romney, too, because his son is there as well, which is why he's a rhino's rhino.
This is just disgusting.
The corruption just reeks.
Reeks?
Yeah.
Stunning.
Meanwhile, the Azov begged to be allowed to flee to an unspecified third nation.
Here's a tweet interpreting it for you guys from Putins into human language.
Our forces in Mariupol are extremely exhausted after over 50 days of fierce urban combat.
We just can't spend more time and resources as Zerg rushes five kilometer wide steel plant turned into a giant fortress.
If Russia were guilty of war crimes, there'd be nothing stopping them from dropping a few missiles into the industrial plant and taking most of the Azovs hiding there with human shields.
In comparison to most military campaigns, this one has been fought with kid gloves.
American forces didn't hesitate to firebomb Dresden, for example, multiple times, killing thousands of civilians, one of the greatest atrocities of World War II.
Why would civilians voluntarily enter the bowels of an industrial complex where there's no food or water, with a band of besieged neo-Nazis, instead of leaving through the Russian aid corridors like everyone else?
The only possible reason there are for civilians in the Azov tunnels is Azov dragged them down there to use them as human shields.
Meanwhile—and this will give you a sense of what's been going on here—Ukrainian Nazis are now crucifying young Christian men and burning them at the stake.
The entire U.S.
government corporate complex has been aggressively pushing America into a pen of blind compliance with their nationwide We Support Ukraine and I Stand With Ukraine psyops.
Together, like the same bad actors deceitfully promote, we're all in this together.
Throughout the COVID era now, they're conning Americans into avidly supporting the barbaric Nazi regime in Kiev.
These are the same genocidal maniacs who are trying their hardest to start World War III by demonizing Russia while gushing cringeworthy praise for the brutal Nazi government of Ukraine.
If Americans knew just how much neo-Nazi and neocon president Zelensky really is, they'd scream bloody murder, especially if they understood his administration and military have been slaughtering Ukraine civilians at every opportunity.
Virtually every attack on Ukraine hospitals and civilian infrastructure has been carried out by the armed forces of Ukraine or National Guard of Ukraine, especially if a neo-Nazi has a battalion, a unit of the National Guard.
Likewise, it was they who perpetrated the viciously ruthless crucifixion and burning shown below.
Till the U.S.
sees and hears the searing truth, they will blindly jump on the Ukraine bandwagon that's slowly taking the world over the cliff.
That's why we posted this disturbing video.
I've been trying to film this video for the 7th time, but I can't.
Every time I think I'm going to cry.
I don't know what to say, friends, I don't know.
I'm afraid I'll be blocked again, but I can't help but post this video.
Do your results.
I'll be back.
Oh.
Yeah.
Oh.
Oh. - No.
Oh god.
No.
Oh.
you Well, I spare us the anguish of watching him burn to death, but there it is.
Scott, your thoughts?
Well, the thugs and the criminals and the Ukrainian Azov battalions, it goes without saying, we know what they're about.
I've always said the Ukrainians have a couple screws loose, if not the entire case.
There's something off with them in general.
And this type of behavior, it's the greatest shame that America could be possibly labeled as having a partnership and aiding and abetting.
I mean, it's bizarre.
It goes without saying that we have reached, I mean, the bottom of the barrel, the abyss, with regards to our reputation as a nation.
To be backing and supporting these people and this country and Zelensky and the entire operation of the coup d'etat which we orchestrated.
It is without a doubt the greatest shame and the greatest hypocrisy of Western civilization.
And you know, it's not going to end well for any of these people in Ukraine.
Russia is going to, they're fighting very slowly and methodically and strategically, but they're going to win the war.
They're going to catch all of these people and kill them or try them and put them in jail.
Russia will not forget and it will move very deliberately and you're going to see Ukraine just turned into a ghost town where the portions that have been taken over are going to be returned to the Russian residents.
This is truly amazing what Ukraine has turned into, and it has all been turned into this monstrosity by the United States of America, Victoria Nuland, John Kerry, Barack Obama, Joe Biden,
All of them, you know, also the biological and chemical weapons labs that have been exposed being directly tied to the research of the COVID-19 Wuhan animal to human transmission that's coming out.
So it's like every foul and evil and sinful and wicked thing that you could imagine that we have for, what, 50 years said we're the champion against, we're the defender of freedom, defender of human rights, defender of democracy.
And all of that is a lie, because every disgusting, foul, wicked thing we have been doing, we have been funding, we have been party to this.
And it's the greatest shame that our country could have.
The only thing greater is the media and the American people that are so ignorant of the realities of this conflict.
And they're willfully ignorant, too.
Selfishly and pridefully ignorant in trying to You know, trying to claim that Russia is, you know, the warmonger aggressor.
No, Russia is the hero and savior of the people of eastern Ukraine that were being genocided.
This was the motivation for their military intervention.
And every, you know, every American that doesn't know this really should be, I mean, disgusted and outraged and learn quickly.
But it also shows what the American media is all about.
Complete lies and deception, Jim.
Oh, Scott, I think you got it right.
Russia's been acting in an honorable, principled, and moral fashion, but the West has not.
Don?
When you say genocided, Scott, did you mean self-genocided in that they're doing it to themselves, right?
Well, there's a bigotry that exists against the Russian Slavic Eastern communities that is, you know, rooted in religious bigotry.
There's a Catholic bigotry against the Russian Orthodox that, you know, goes back far and wide.
Uh so but you know so they see the the Russian Slavic people uh as is subhuman so it's it's strange very strange for us to even be able to contemplate it but it's uh it's rooted in the historical uh prejudices of Ukraine you know in different tribes and different ethnic groups that are there but it's a genocide against the against the Russian speaking people and they tried to genocide their own language by preventing
And they've also said, I might add, commanders of the Ukrainian forces have called for children's heads to be cut off, Russian children's heads to be cut off, Uh, so, you know, even remarks like that from these Ukrainian fighters is so beyond the pale that it's, you know, we have no credibility left in the world or with our own people.
And these are things that we should never, uh, we should, we should never let this country escape, uh, answering for these crimes.
And I think Russia will, will, will hold us to the fire for that, Jim.
Holly, your thoughts?
Well, I, I couldn't watch that.
I had to mute it.
I mean, the, uh, Stuff like that is just too disturbing.
I can only imagine how horrible all this is right now and the fact that people are going to that length shows that they're obviously Ukrainians are not winning the war if they need to engage in terror tactics like that to try to scare Russians away and try to Try to basically create this distraction that we see using the U.S.
media.
I mean, if you look at the U.S.
media, the mainstream media, they're saying Russians are losing.
They've been saying they've been losing since the very beginning.
And as you, as Scott said, they've been very methodical with How and where and which areas they've been going into in Ukraine and the United States is just sending more money and more mercenaries, more funding, more drones.
Every week it seems like the Biden administration has more money to help out Ukrainians.
I hear that they're recruiting Kids who are like 16 even 14 years old trying to get them to sign up for the Ukrainian military at this point.
So obviously they don't care about their own civilians at this point if they're trying to put children into the line of fire at this point.
Yes, yes, yes.
Good points.
Meanwhile.
Russian generals suggest Moscow could seize Ukraine's entire coast and create a link to Transnistria.
It's unclear if the ambitious plan is official Kremlin policy, but it would make a lot of sense.
A Russian deputy military commander said Moscow could seize Ukraine's Black Sea coast to create a corridor to a breakaway region of Moldova.
This is Rustam Minikov, acting commander of Russia's Central Military District.
Control over the south of Ukraine is another way to Transnistria, where there's also evidence that the Russian-speaking population is being oppressed.
Nearly half a million live in Transnistria, a narrow section of Moldova that borders Ukraine.
While no country has recognized its sovereignty, it has been self-ruled since 1992.
Russia has about 1,500 peacekeepers there today.
The comments conflict with Russia's stated policy, which is that they're going to support the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Moldova within its internationally recognized borders.
And it's unclear whether these comments represent official Kremlin policy.
Vladimir Putin has declared victory in the key city of Mariupol, giving Russia control of Ukraine's Sea of Azov coast.
Russia announced a new phase of military operations in the Donbass region.
Seizing the Black Sea coastline would likely be a more ambitious task, requiring the capture of the port city of Odessa.
Since beginning the special military op on Feb 24, Russia has captured only a small part of Ukraine's southwest.
Meanwhile, Victoria Nuland warns Russia of astronomical price if Russia were to use tactical nuclear weapons.
This, of course, is our savant.
This is a woman who spared Ukraine of having a Russian-friendly leader by engineering a coup using five billion of American dollars to impose a Western puppet that has led directly to what's happening there today.
I say, without Victoria Nuland, without this woman in office, Russia would probably not be intruding into Ukraine now, though it would, I dare say, have independently good reason for doing so.
Nuland was asked to assess the possibility of Russia using tactical nudes.
Said she couldn't rule it out, but it would be a catastrophic scenario.
Putin has already ordered, according to her, brutal war crimes.
The world must be prepared for the worst.
She refused to provide any details about a potential response, but she said it would take the situation to a fundamentally new level, where the price would be simply astronomical.
Unlike the U.S., neither Russia nor its predecessor, the Soviet Union, have ever used atomic armaments against another state.
Note that well.
Unlike the U.S.
Moscow's military doctrine states they can only be used when the very existence of the country is threatened or if another power opts for a first strike.
Asked by a journalist if Kiev can rely on its Western partners' support in a worst-case scenario, she reassured Ukraine it would not be left alone.
Meanwhile, the U.S.
is continuing to provide all kinds of military equipment.
For strongly worded warnings came just two days after the Pentagon said it doesn't see a need to change the country's nuclear posture.
The DoD spokesman's statement followed President Zelensky's claim Moscow could use tactical weapons in Ukraine.
Late February, announcing the launch of the special military operation, Putin warned any nation trying to interfere.
Could face consequences unlike anything in their history.
Many interpreted this as a threat to use nukes.
Russia put its nuclear deterrence on the highest alert level in the early days, citing hostile signals coming from NATO.
Russia attacked its neighbor following Ukraine's failure to implement the Minsk Agreement signed in 2004 and Moscow's eventual recognition of the Donbass Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk.
The German and French brokered Minsk Protocol was designed to give the breakaway region special status within Ukraine.
A Kremlin has since demanded Ukraine officially declare itself a neutral country that will never join NATO.
Kiev insists a Russian offensive was completely unprovoked and has denied claims it was planning to retake the two republics by force.
Scott, your thoughts?
Well, you know, Russia is winning militarily.
It's cut off the Ukrainian forces.
It's pounded them into powder.
It's capturing Mariupol.
It's most likely going to expose weapons, biological weapons, chemical weapons, and foreign mercenaries, foreign military that are in Mariupol, and particularly the steel plant.
So, revelation upon revelation is indicating this Ukraine was a great money laundering biological chemical weapons factory lab with an agenda to develop weapons that could be distributed through things like unmanned aerial vehicles.
They had a project called Mosquito Where they were going to weaponize sicknesses and plagues and fevers from ticks and fleas that are located under the feathers of birds and then develop that for distribution through birds again against the Slavic people.
So this was an act of war using biological and chemical weapons agents.
The Russians have exposed it.
They've had several documentaries.
I've participated in some.
I'll be participating in future ones.
And they are showing very clearly That the United States has been actively developing these weapons to use against Russia.
It's a violation of the Global Biological Weapons Convention.
I'd even say it's a preliminary act of war.
So Russia is not going to lose this fight because they see their existence, you know, teetering on the brink.
So they are going to commit themselves To a, you know, full-time war and achieving victory.
This is World War III, and we think we're going to be able to ring a bell and call a timeout and call a truce and call for negotiations.
Russia's not going to play that game.
They're going to prosecute this war battle by battle.
They're going to conquer Mariupol and all of Ukraine.
They're going to kill the Nazis or try them for war crimes.
They're going to kill or try Zelensky and all of these people, like we did Saddam Hussein and his cohorts that we listed on the deck of cards.
The Russians are going to do that again in Ukraine.
And also every weapon that comes in from Europe or the United States is going to be destroyed.
Now I think in the battle of ideas, Russia would be very wise to make a broadcast saying, we are shipping all of these weapons back to the people of the United States so that they could fight the police state tyranny that has overthrown their President Trump.
It's clear the United States people are not in favor of this war, so we're going to ship all the U.S.
weapons back to the people and let them have their revolution and overthrow this corrupt government under Biden.
Even if they said that, it would have a reverberation of truth because Americans would say, you know what?
He's right.
And he's also right when he calls wokeism a crime against humanity.
So ironically, ironic as it sounds, the conservative average American has more in common with Vladimir Putin's statements than he has with Joe Biden's statements, you know, because of the conservative religious family values principles that Russia espouses.
So it's remarkable that this whole paradigm shift is occurring, but absent of shipping the weapons back here to the United States, I think you will see all of this money and all of these weapons that the U.S.
is sending to Ukraine go up in flames and ultimately be destroyed, because Russia is not going to settle for anything less.
Jim?
Scott, I think you make a great point that the President of Russia does a better job of representing traditional American values than the President of the United States.
Holly, your thoughts?
Well, it's pretty obvious that we are under a, you know, a foreign hostile government here in the United States.
And I think it's admirable when other countries speak out and try to inform the Americans any way that they can.
About what is going on at an international stage because we have been censored so much here in the US.
People are so ignorant to what is going on.
On a global scale and what is even going on in their own country at this point, the lies have just stacked up so much.
People know that obviously this Biden economy isn't, you know, he can't blame the war on this.
He can't blame Putin for this.
This was going on.
Anyone with a half a brain cell knows that this has been going on for many years.
I mean, arguably, we've been fighting a great recession.
And I've been under the thumb of like trying to pay off international finance at least since like 2008.
We've been in this trying to get out of this recession.
I mean, at least President Trump had tried to bring back American production, put some tariffs on some of the countries.
He earned respect of other countries such as Russia and China through tough on tariffs, etc.
Tough on Trade, so peace through strength.
And here with the Biden administration, like you said, it's just complete lies.
It's money laundering.
It's just a quagmire of funneling money and weapons into this area, creating a proxy war with Russia at this point.
It's really not about Ukraine.
It's about trying to control this whole area.
And continue NATO in the G7, in the EU, and basically hold all of Europe hostage as well.
So we're facing a big split between the East and West, and Russia's being pushed into the arms of China even more.
And the United States, ultimately with sanctions, we're only hurting ourselves at this point because manufacturing is going down, value of the US dollar, obviously, is going down.
So we've isolated ourselves the more that we do this.
Great points.
I do believe we must give Trump credit for making the American economy strong, for establishing energy independence, for locking down the border.
And in my opinion, the strongest reason to believe he actually was putting America first, and he's not a globalist, covert or otherwise, is a massive effort to discredit him Meanwhile, first priority, Pat Buchanan, he's actually a brilliant political commentator, avoid U.S.
if he does, he will clean their clock for the third time.
The third time.
Meanwhile, first priority, Pat Buchanan, he's actually a brilliant political commentator, avoid U.S. war with Russia.
Neocons and war hawks are taking the position of visible defeat of the Russian army and expulsion from Ukraine.
Putin's humiliation in Austria must be America's goals and that they ought to be non-negotiable.
Asked if the U.S.
should send troops to fight Chris Coons of Delaware, said the time may have come.
Putin will only stop when we stop him.
We're in a very dangerous moment where it's important we in Congress and the admin come to a common position when we're willing to go the next step.
Send not just armed, but troops to the aid of Ukraine.
If the answer is never, then we are inviting another level of escalation and brutality by Putin.
Interesting, the White House has reaffirmed Biden's declaration the U.S.
will not send troops to fight Russia in Ukraine, which would open the door to World War III.
Is that Biden just last month?
The idea we're going to send in offensive equipment and have planes and tanks and trains going in with American pilots and American crew just to understand?
That's called World War III.
Let's get it straight, guys.
Biden added we will not fight the Third World War in Ukraine.
Since he made these remarks, the red line against direct U.S.
aid, however, has shifted.
Through a prohibition against the introduction of U.S.
troops and air power has remained.
The present U.S.
position might be summarized thus.
As U.S.
forces fighting and killing Russians would ignite a U.S.-Russia war, which could escalate nuclear, we're not going to take that first step and risk the security and survival of our country, even if staying out of this two-month war means the defeat of Ukraine.
Call it the Eisenhower position.
In 1956, Eisenhower refused to use U.S.
forces to intervene to halt Russian tanks from crushing the Hungarian Revolution.
Ike was unwilling to cross the Alta Line dividing Europe and chose to let the Hungarian Revolution fail than ignite a war in which our own soldiers and nation would be at risk.
Ike literally put America first, ahead of the Hungarians.
Or does Biden's refusal to follow Kuhn's urging leave the rival belligerents in the Ukraine-Russia war?
Putin has suffered a series of setbacks since the invasion began, so we have been told.
He has failed to capture the three largest cities of Ukraine, Kiev, or Kyrgyzstan, or Odessa.
Putin suffered a humiliating defeat and retreat in the Battle of Kiev and has lost a fourth of the forces with which he started the war.
Frankly, I think this is false.
The flagship, the cruiser Moskva, has been sunk, reportedly by Ukrainian anti-ship missiles apparently directed by Putin has had his successes as well in Mariupol, a major port on the Sea of Azov.
If it falls as expected, he'll have a land bridge from Russia to Crimea.
North of Crimea and the west of Luhansk and Donetsk, he's also added to the lands he has held since 2014.
Russia's capture and annexation of the Donbass could also be called a victory by Putin.
Capture of Kharkov or Odessa, the latter of which would give him control of the entire Black Sea coast of Ukraine, making Kiev the capital of a landlocked country, would also constitute a triumph, which brings us to the debate right here at home.
Neocons and Warhawks are taking the stance that the visible defeat of Russia and expulsion from Ukraine must be America's gold, and they are non-negotiable.
Failure to achieve these end would amount to a defeat for NATO in the United States, they claim.
The problem with this victory scenario?
Putin has sent many signals that before he accepts the defeat of his army and country, his own removal and trials a war criminal who engaged in genocide, he will use battlefield nuclear weapons from his arsenal of 6,000 to win the war.
Wednesday, Putin announced Russia's test of a giant new ICBM.
The senators believe Putin may not be bluffing, and an early and negotiated end to the war may be necessary to avoid a wider conflict that would spiral into World War III.
But, as ever, they are in charge with timidity and cowardice, letting pass an historic opportunity to administer to authoritarian Russia the defeat it invited with its invasion and that it originally deserves.
Yet recall, to avoid war with Russia, Harry Truman refused to breach Stalin's Berlin blockade.
Eisenhower let the Hungarian Revolution be drowned in blood, and he told the British, French, and Israelis to get out of Egypt.
JFK, let the Berlin Wall go up.
LBJ, let the Prague Spring be crushed by the Warsaw Pact.
The sooner this war ends, the better for us all.
Meanwhile, Zelensky says top U.S.
diplomat Blinken and also the Secretary of Defense Austin will visit with him today.
U.S.
Secretary of State Blinken will visit Kiev tomorrow.
They're coming to visit.
Zelensky has for weeks been urging West to send more weapons.
He, on Saturday, called for a meeting with Putin in an effort to put an end to the war.
I think whoever started will be able to end it, adding he was not afraid to meet Putin if it would lead to a peace deal between Russia and Ukraine.
Scott, your thoughts?
Well, you know, Putin and the Russians and Lavrov and all of these diplomatic voices are singing off from the same hymnal.
They are not backing down.
They are not apologizing.
They're not believing anything from the West.
They're not listening to the West.
They are in full war mode.
That means all of this miscalculation of information operations that We have been, in fact, inflicting upon our own citizens.
We've been lying about this to our own citizenry.
The Russians aren't even hearing that or listening in any way, shape, or form because they're in war mode and they realize everything out of the West is a complete lie.
So they're going to I think finish the Ukraine operation very soon.
And again, Europe is already falling apart with their political animus towards Russia.
They're not going to ban Russian oil because they can't.
One of the disturbing things that I've seen on European soil, of course, is the Grotesque prejudice and discrimination against ethnic Russian-speaking people that is so ugly and insulting.
You know, tormenting and abusing little children because they're Russian.
You know, tormenting women who are Russian.
I mean, it really is right out of the Nazi playbook, as if you're sticking yellow stars on people.
They're doing that to ethnic Russians, and I think they're playing with fire because the Russians have suffered more than any other people in Europe from World War II, and they are more prepared to suffer in the future, and the West is not.
America is not.
We couldn't handle the degree of suffering that Russia understands.
Uh, and has been strengthened by, so we're, you know, we're, it's almost like we're going to blow up the world, but the only ones who are going to survive the blowing up are the Russians, and we're the ones initiating this, uh, this, uh, conflagration.
So I, I think Russia, again, what the West has tried to, uh, impugn against Russia, their, their propaganda techniques, Their threats and their sanctions and their economic war, all of that is going to blow back against the West and I think cause revolution.
That's already brewing in France right now with the election of Macron, allegedly.
I think it's been stolen, of course, but you had people in France already rioting and two people were just shot by the French police and killed.
So I think France is going to go into full revolution because Macron's not going to back down.
So you're going to see Macron and another replay of the yellow vests and hostility against his own people with this fraudulent, mind-numbing stupidity of don't bathe, don't heat your homes, and sawdust bread to somehow morally accuse Putin of bad behavior.
And all of that is recklessly stupid and narcissistic, but that's exactly what Macron and Trudeau and all these other World Economic Forum leaders are all about.
But I think you're going to witness Europe fall into a revolution very, very soon.
Jim?
As JFK observed, those who make peaceful reform impossible make violent revolution inevitable.
I think we're going to see it in France.
They know what a revolution is all about.
Holly, your thought.
Right.
So I think I think Scott's absolutely right.
I think all of this is for not as far as Europe goes and Russia.
Russia is easily taking Ukraine.
Like he said, they they have a purpose.
They know what they're doing.
have fought against this expansion of NATO for decades now.
They've had enough.
It's gotten to their border.
I think Kazakhstan was tied in with this as well.
That didn't really make the mainstream news over here as well, where there was a collapse of the Kazakhstan government and Russia came in and fixed what was going on over there.
Another attempted color revolution.
There's a lot of attempts to try to overthrow governments in Eastern Europe, basically knocking at Russia's door.
And like Scott said, they've had enough.
They know what's going on.
They don't want another Cold War 2.0.
They are going to step up to the plate this time and take it over.
They see how weak the United States is.
We're only exuding that more and more now under Biden.
Europe is weak.
Their governments are collapsing.
As Scott just said, Macron was installed once again.
Marine Le Pen was the popular winner of that again.
And the election was stolen again.
So there's going to be continuing outrage.
The people of Germany aren't going to let themselves be destroyed either.
Eventually, they're going to have to stand up.
For the Nord Stream Pipeline, or they're going to freeze to death.
So a lot of several other governments, I believe the Italians have actually pulled out, said they're not going to support Ukraine anymore.
They're not going to send them anything else anymore.
They need to focus on their own people.
Thank God, because so many people did perish under the lockdowns.
Just completely unnecessary over the past couple of years in Italy as well.
So there are several governments in Europe, similar to the US, where Inflation has been so bad and quality of life has gone down so much that people are going to have to draw a line in the sand.
And some of those countries in Europe are not as ignorant as the United States.
I'm still noticing how ignorant people are to what is going on on a global scale and what the United States is really doing in Europe and in Ukraine.
Very good points.
Don, you say we're ignorant.
I think we're just Massively deceived.
I mean, we've absorbed the truth from the media.
I mean, the official truth from the media.
And it's such a pity that everybody is succumbing to it.
But we're not ignorant.
We're just stupid and controlled.
Well, you know, let me say one thing about the European, the election of Macron too.
Holly brought up a good point.
There was a story that came out that the European, I think it was Germany and maybe Germany and Spain and one other country wrote an op-ed publishing how they were standing behind Macron.
They, the globalists, needed Macron.
So here you have foreign heads of state writing an op-ed Telling the French people, that's who your president should be.
That's who we want to work with.
And it's remarkable.
Talk about, you know, the election meddling and all of this other stuff.
They have no shame, Jim.
Well, compare it.
Macron versus Le Pen.
She's an adult, mature, serious, intellectual woman who's capable of shouldering responsibility.
He's a little twit.
He's a spoiled little brat.
He's never shouldered any responsibility in his life, and he sure as hell does not deserve to be the president of France.
It's absurd.
But he's been chosen to be.
He's been chosen, right?
He's been chosen, indeed.
He has been chosen.
And Don, we're right at that point, my friend.
Take us out.
Oh yeah, actually we got another minute and Holly wants to say something.
Or anybody else?
Well, I think, uh, you know, you guys are right that we are going to see continued, uh, protests, the yellow vest 2.0.
They can try lockdowns again.
They can try, you know, try another event.
Um, I think the French people have had enough.
Um, things were getting violent during the, the yellow vest movement, but things are just going to get worse because people are going to get more and more desperate over there.
So very concerned about what is going on in France as well.
Excellent commentary all around Don.
Yeah, okay.
So, this has been the first hour of April 24th, Truth vs. News, and boy, it sure is diabolical.
Truth and News are poles apart, and we're trying to bring them into the truth here.
So, thanks for watching here, and we're coming back with another hour that you're not going to want to miss.
Sorry this hour was pretty graphic, but that's the way it is.
