This is Just Informed Talk Radio, where we are not ashamed of the gospel, because it is God's power for salvation to everyone who believes.
One thing, I don't know why, it doesn't even matter how hard you try, keep that in mind, I designed this rhyme that was played in two times, all I know.
Time is a valuable thing, watch it fly by as the pendulum swings, watch it count down to the end of the day, the clock takes life away, it's so unreal.
Then look out below, watch the side go right out the window, trying to hold on, but you didn't even know, wasted it all just to watch you go.
I kept everything inside, and even though I tried to hold on.
Welcome to another Just Informed Talk Radio show.
I'm your host, Craig James.
Hope you guys are having a wonderful, wonderful day.
What do we have a show for you?
A lot to cover.
Hope you all had a great weekend.
But we're back in the studio trying to get you the information you need.
A lot happening over the last few days.
The big story I kind of want to lead with here is for anyone who hasn't seen it, this exchange that was aired.
From the Oval Office between President Trump, J.D. Vance, and the Ukrainian President, Vladimir Zelensky, is a very powerful clip indeed.
And what it sort of highlights, among many other things, is the fact that our position in the world has been compromised by the people who have been running this government for the last four years, supposedly.
And the entitlement that other nations have gained just by being associated with our never-ending aid systems, right?
And Ukraine is the best example, but even beyond that, I want to play that clip in a little bit, an incredible fiery exchange between President Trump and President Zelensky and J.D. Vance.
That you're going to want to hear, but just to give some background to the whole situation in Ukraine, like how did we get here?
And most of you probably know, I'm assuming, but if you don't, we'll just recap where we're at, how we got to where we're at.
That's a more important recap, I think, even than anything else.
So, Ukraine is a very...
Mineral rich, resource rich nation.
It's also a very rich nation as far as farmland is concerned.
It has been coined or called Europe's breadbasket for a very long time.
It's where the most fertile farmland in the world is, actually, as a matter of fact.
General, or excuse me, Colonel Douglas McGregor famously has talked about this, or at least in circles of people are paying attention.
He actually even came on this show here and talked about this fact with us, that Ukraine, one of the reasons why it's so highly contested is not because, you know, a lot of people say it's the geopolitical implications and NATO, and that's all. a lot of people say it's the geopolitical implications and I think, secondary to the primary fact that He who controls Ukraine controls Europe.
And what do I mean by that?
Well, for a few examples, A, the farmland.
You have some of the richest soil in the world where farming is very easy.
It's been said that you could basically, you know, throw anything in the ground and it will grow there.
And it's a place from which a majority of the produce is grown out of the ground.
I mean, at least the wheat and those kind of things that really grow well there, that's what's grown.
And that is...
A huge resource, especially as the world gets smaller and populations get larger and more stress is put on the infrastructure and how to supply people with food.
These resources are going to only become more highly contested, just in the same way that here in the United States, water will considerably be, or has become and will continue to be, Vied after vigorously because of its limited nature in how it's able to be found.
And this is something we've seen with, for instance, New York City, big real estate firm, brokerages, investment firms making huge investments in land with water rights and other mineral rights.
This is a...
Because they see scarcity in the future, right?
Population grows, resources remain the same or more limited than, you know, you're going to have this competition.
The same applies to Europe in, you know, their expanding population.
I mean, the population of Europe right now is somewhere in the 500 million ballpark range, right?
And it's actually considerably smaller.
I think it's roughly similar in size, but I think it is still smaller.
So you have more people in a smaller place with more limited resources.
And those people are going to become more dependent on other nations unless they do something about that.
And that is what Ukraine really is about, primarily.
Now, there's a lot of other implications there, and what was going on there and what is going on there is also very important, but that's one factor.
Another factor is access to foreign imports, right?
So, for instance, if they want pipelines from Russia to bring natural gas into Europe, well, they're probably going to have to go through Ukraine.
Because of its position on the map and where it is and how it connects.
So that's another factor.
And of course, you know, there's the geopolitical implications of who's selling natural resources to who and so on and so forth.
I think Trump's position mainly has seemed to have been more focused on, well, we have more, we have enough of that.
We have natural gas, oil, and other things that we need.
What we need is mineral resources, because that's definitely the future.
Those mineral resources, particularly, I think the one they don't want to say, I'm no expert by any means on all this, but I think the one they don't want to say, and it's in high...
It's in high deposits in certain areas around the world, is uranium because nuclear power perhaps will be the future of our power grid.
You know, solar perhaps will have a high factor in there, but solar, you know, the panels are quite inefficient if you think about it.
I mean, like, you think of how many panels you need to power, like, a city.
And the amount of land you need to put those panels on, and then the panels are susceptible to anything.
They're susceptible to the elements.
They're susceptible to hail damage.
There's a series of factors there that make those a little bit less reliable.
And then again, if you produce solar, what happens at night?
That's the other problem.
The problem that you continuously run into is that...
The sun goes down every day.
So half the time you need power, there is no power.
So solar will play a part.
Wind, it's way too inefficient, and it's way too environmentally just detrimental.
And it's just an inefficient way to get power, although that's not what the greenies will tell us.
So nuclear power will be the future.
Of course you're going to need all these other elements too.
How do you make a system of solar that will work?
Well, you need batteries.
Batteries need rare earth minerals because that's the only way you're going to be able to store the energy from solar, let's say, to have it then be able to go all night.
So there's a lot more to this.
this.
I'll continue when we come back.
Mama told me.
In his well-known devotional, My Upmost for His Highest, Oswald Chambers asks, Are you ready to be offered?
Paul writes in Philippians 2.17, Are we willing to be offered for the work of the faithful?
Are we willing to bind our worldly selves to the sacrificial altar to have the things of the flesh removed?
The altar means fire, burning and purification and the removal of everything that God has not started and of every attachment that is not an attachment to God.
If we wish to experience the fullness of God working in us and through us, the things of the world must be removed.
As Chambers says, tell God you are ready to be offered and God will prove himself to be all you ever dreamed he would be.

We're all through.
I never knew there'd come a day when I'd be saying to you, don't let this good love slip away.
Now that we know that it's true, don't, don't you know the kind of man I am?
No, said I'll never fall in love again, but it's real and the feeling comes shining through.
I'm so caught up in you, little girl, and I never get to spread that I think so caught up in you.
Welcome back to S-Formed Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James, and I'll just kind of continue where I was going with this.
I mean, I'm kind of giving you the long-winded response on Ukraine, but I think it's important, I guess, for context to kind of talk out this issue where we find ourselves, before I play this clip, between Zelensky and Trump and J.D. Vance that was an incredible fiery exchange, but really an important insight into how...
The entitlement of the foreign aid that we've been giving has created a monster abroad, right?
And what I mean by that is essentially...
Okay, so back to Ukraine.
Ukraine is a resource-rich nation, and we're going to need a lot of the rare earth minerals that they have for computer chips and batteries and...
You know, you may not like electric cars and all that stuff, and I agree.
I'm not a fan of electric cars.
I think oil and gas will be sufficient for the at least next few hundred years.
At least the next two hundred years.
I don't know what will happen after that, you know.
I have a feeling they'll either figure out the cold fusion stuff, if they haven't already, and have a safe way to harness nuclear power.
That will be, or they'll figure out some other thing like zero point energy and there'll be like some sort of ubiquity with free energy will come or knowing the people who run the show these days and probably by then as well, they'll find a way to charge us for the free energy.
But either way...
For now, we're okay with it, but we need these rare earth minerals.
And like I was saying, you know, solar's great, but then it gets dark at night, so there's only one real way to solve that problem, and that's to have banks of batteries which would store the energy so that then the grid could continue, right?
That's the only solution I've heard.
I'm no expert by any means on any of this, but this is my general understanding of the, you know, dilemma.
So those batteries are going to need rare earth minerals, you know, the type that a lot of which are mined in Asia, Africa, but I think there's minerals other places as well that we haven't really tapped into.
We're also going to need minerals for rare earth minerals for, you know, the chips that are going to be made, these quantum computing chips that are coming out.
I think I heard a story, and don't quote me on this, but that Apple has manufactured its first quantum computing chip.
And if you guys don't understand what quantum computing is, I mean, it's almost a very difficult thing to even fathom, in a sense, because if you think of a chip and a processor and the way our computers work, think of those chips that are, like, two-dimensional, right?
And, like, a two-dimensional drawing would be, you know, you draw a picture of a rabbit on a piece of paper, you know, an 8.5 by 11 sheet of paper.
And, you know, that's a two-dimensional drawing.
You're looking at it, it's flat, and that would be equivalent to the computer chips we use today.
Quantum computing would be like, you know, a three-dimensional rabbit statue, like, that you can see, touch, feel, and walk around, and it exists in three dimensions, so you see the depth and what it looks like.
So, that's like the next dimension of...
Because as I understand, again, not an expert.
Please feel free to write, text me, or call if I'm wrong on this.
But essentially, the difference between quantum computing and the standard computing that we have now is standard computing uses a binary system.
You know, that's where you see the series of zeros and ones that basically are an on and off, right?
So you have a bunch of circuits on a board, and you have a zero or a one.
And that indicates, and I'm simplifying this grossly, so please forgive me, but the zero or the one indicates whether it's on or off, and as you join all these circuits together in different combinations of on and off, one or zero, this creates, you know, the picture on your screen and the computing system that operates Windows and makes your browser pull up and connects you to the internet.
Quantum computing is...
It takes out the ones and zeros, if that makes sense.
It takes it out of a binary system and makes it into a system, and this is, again, my understanding, so don't take this to the bank, but this is just the way I understand it.
The one and the zero can be on or off at the same time.
It's like sort of existing in a state of flux.
It's a very...
Strange and complicated thing, but it basically is, instead of having the zeros and ones where it's on or off, and those circuits come together, they're all on and they're all off simultaneously, and they're just waiting to be activated by sort of an impulse.
Anyway, I'm not going to get into the physics of it because it's not my speciality, and I'm sure there's experts out there who can explain it.
Probably about 10,000 times better than I can online.
You can just go find them.
You know what's funny?
And I'm sorry, my brain's all over the place today.
But somebody told me once in a text, they were like, you know that there's no more than 100%.
You can't say something's more than 100%.
Because I would say like 1,000%, 10,000%.
I'd be like, oh yeah, no, I know that.
No, I know.
It's a manner of speaking.
So forgive me for my...
Mathematic faux pas.
But anyway, we need batteries.
We need rare earth minerals.
We need chips.
We need quantum computers.
We need future.
The future will be decided by those who have not just the technological capability to use these advanced systems and implement them, but The raw, rare earth material to manifest those technologies, if that makes sense.
And this is why Trump's calling President Zelensky to the White House, because Trump, I believe, entered this situation trying to figure out what value Ukraine brings to the table.
Meaning, we're sending hundreds of billions of dollars.
Which is, you know, that number gets thrown around so much, I think people forget the level of the amount of money that is.
It is not just enormous, it is gargantuan.
It is, you know, a fraction of the amount of money that, it's like, I think we're at 25, 30, 40 percent, somewhere in that ballpark right now, depending on how you do the math, of our national...
defense budget entirely is being sent to Ukraine as aid not as a loan not as a debt to be repaid to us as aid to a nation on the other side of the ocean on the border of Russia on the far eastern edge of Europe that It is about the size of,
I don't know, how big is Ukraine?
It's not very big.
I don't know the scale size, but if I had to guess, I would say Ukraine, it probably is smaller than Texas in size.
And we're giving them 25 plus percent of our, maybe 30, 40 percent of what we spend.
A year on our defense budget, which I think is 700 plus trillion, or billion, excuse me.
And we're giving them all this money without even expecting a payment, a debt repayment.
This is insane.
So Trump walks in and goes, okay, why are we doing this?
Well, sir, you know, his former deep state bureaucrat generals say, well, sir.
We're in a war of attrition with Russia right now, and if we allow Russia to engage with Europe, all bets are off for the United States in the future.
I think the biggest fear is this, to be clear.
If Europe and Russia were to create an alliance, it would be very dangerous, because Europe has a huge population with a lot of money.
One of the largest combined economies in the world, if you combine all the nations of Europe, then if they join with Russia, get access to the natural gas, the rare earth, mineral resources, etc., etc., that would be a dangerous proposition.
So the United States has had this position that at all costs we have to keep that from happening.
Now in doing so, we've driven Russia into the arms of China, which is a dangerous proposition, but as the calculation has been made, It's a less dangerous proposition than a scenario where Europe and Russia get together.
Now, to anybody who's out there saying, well, why doesn't the United States and Russia form an alliance?
I think that the reason that, and perhaps that would be a good idea, but the problem is there is no geographic pertinence or significance.
Between us and Russia.
I mean, we are literally, couldn't be more on the other side of the world.
I mean, I know Alaska and Russia touch up there in the, you know, Siberian tundra area, whatever.
But pragmatically and geographically, an alliance between Russia and the United States is, it doesn't even make sense.
We're not even close enough to each other for that to geographically make sense.
And not just from our perspective, from Russia's perspective.
Why would they want an alliance with a country that is on the other side of the world when, as I said, a more pragmatic and logical one would be to join with either one of their land partners, the European nations or the Chinese nations.
And mark my words, there is a battle for this partnership.
But the U.S., through its pressure campaign on Europe, has basically done everything they had to do over the last however many years to convince Europe not to join into this.
And Europe has its own reasons.
If you think back, the USSR and communism and the Cold War, they don't want the Soviet Union in control, for sure.
And that's what they have.
They have that taste in their mouth.
They're like, we've seen what Russia being in control looks like, and we don't want that.
But they would love nothing more than to be the dominant partner in an alliance.
We're the Russian nation subservient.
And of course, you have to remember, China is doing everything they can to influence Russia against...
Any sort of relationship with the United States or Europe, because if the U.S., Europe, and Russia got together, what would that implicate for China?
I mean, it would make them basically very weak and vulnerable as a very, in comparison, small nation.
So, although they do have a billion and a half people, or 1.2 or 1.3 billion, whatever it is, They would significantly lose a level of power.
This is why people talk about this multipolar world thing, and they get all meta with this and that.
You see how complicated it actually is.
It's not as simple as people like to just frame it up and say, oh, well, you know, that's pretty much it.
They just wash their hands of it and move on.
We should just be partners with Russia.
Well, why?
I mean, why should Russia want to be partners with us?
And I mean that from the sense of, how are we going to do anything for them from the other side of the world, and how are they going to do anything for us from the other side of the world?
Now, I know the Internet's made the world smaller, and we have global shipping lanes, and the ice cap in the Arctic is melting, and it's opening up new shipping lanes, and there'll be an easier way to connect Russia to the United States through that, you know.
Passage and so on and so forth, but it also opens up passages to other parts, to Europe, to Asia, etc.
And it's going to be a wild ride.
So I say all of this as a preface to have a better understanding of where this conversation is coming from, and I'm going to play it soon here, I promise.
I'm going to try to play the full clip.
I don't know, I want to say it's like seven minutes maybe, and it's a really good and powerful exchange.
It might be a little longer, but this is sort of the geopolitical implication, the situation we find ourselves in.
So for anybody who's, you know, when you talk to people, go, oh yeah, it's really easy.
This is a simple, it's not as easy, I think, as people may imagine.
I think if you, and if you understand that beyond What we talked about, you know, Ukraine having these rare earth minerals and this fertile farmland.
I mean, Russia's got a very substantial rare earth mineral deposit as well.
And Vladimir Putin even just came out and said, well, if that's what the deal is, then we'll offer them that.
And I'll explain what's wrong with that, too.
But...
Listen, this may take a while to explain, but I hope you guys stay tuned because I'm going to do my best to explain this as well as I can.
So keep it locked in here.

Reason number 647. Most people don't even know that the courts have already ruled.
Once money is deposited into the bank, the bank owns the money, and the depositor is merely an unsecured creditor of the bank.
Which means if the bank goes under, you get paid last.
After the financial crisis, instead of breaking up too big to fail, the government and the Federal Reserve created Dodd-Frank and made too big to fail banks even bigger, while putting your deposits more at risk.

Welcome back to S.F.I.R.M. Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James.
So I'm trying to give you guys sort of an overview of this Ukraine thing.
Why it's significant, what it means, what the implications are, and what's happening.
Everything I've explained up to this point regarding where we're at in this negotiation with Ukraine...
And then also the broader implications of, you know, the geopolitical strategy involved here is to reference a deal that was going to be brokered.
So this deal that was going to be brokered was why President Zelensky was in the White House on Friday having a meeting with U.S. officials, including President Trump.
It was because this is what Trump's calculation had brought us.
This is where he brought us with his calculus.
We're giving and we've given this aid, quote-unquote, to Ukraine to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars, which is an unimaginable number.
I know that this number gets thrown around by everybody and we kind of get desensitized to it.
And I know that there's inflation and money is getting less valuable.
Partially because of this aid that's being thrown around, and for a number of other reasons as well.
But this is an unimaginable nightmare.
And for what, right?
The implications were, from the previous administration at least, the intention was to continue to drive this wedge.
Between Europe and Russia, because we cannot, we have to at all costs make sure Russia and Europe never decide to align again.
And this harkens back to the Cold War, but it also harkens to what I explained earlier, which is that an alliance between Russia and Europe would be very detrimental.
To the United States in our best interest.
Because for better or worse, like it or not, Europe is our biggest partner as far as alliances go.
And the wealth of Europe, the generational wealth from the monarchs and everything else, aligned with our empire, our U.S. national empire, international empire that we have built, for better or worse, is what makes us the number one.
It's what gives us power to dictate things to China.
Even though that's waning as China's growing more influential in the Asian Pacific theater.
And in the world at large.
Particularly Africa.
But that's a whole other thing.
Africa's another can of worms, right?
And then of course you have India that's sort of a wedge there too for China that's a thorn in their side.
And they would say the same about China, I'm sure.
Anyway, the calculation of our administrations previously, our deep state, right, the geopolitical calculus has been, hey, it doesn't matter how much money we have to throw at this, any scenario where Russia becomes more powerful and more influential in Europe is going to detrimentally affect the United States.
Who cares?
We're going to give Zelensky $200 billion to fight Russia because of a war that ostensibly the United States had a heavy hand in inviting with their untoward actions in Ukrainian politics, to say the least, with the Maidan Revolution and the civil war that was ongoing there since 2014 that we had a heavy hand in starting.
But beyond that, I mean, this was the calculus.
So now Trump comes in and he goes, okay, I understand why we can't let Russia and Europe get together and we have to continue to push Russia back.
And I get it, but we can't give them all this money.
We'll bankrupt our country.
And then what good will keeping a European and Russian alliance from happening if in the process we lose everything?
That we have.
And I've explained previously already today that there is no geographic incentive or pragmatic reason for Russia to want to align with the United States.
Because in a lot of ways, Russia and the United States have a lot of the same problems and a lot of the same advantages.
Normally you want to align yourself with, you know, someone who has, you know, strategically they're weak where you're strong and they're strong where you're weak and then you can help one another in those deficits, right?
Which is why the European and American alliance has worked so well for so long.
And to a lesser degree our...
Our quote-unquote relationship with China has benefited the United States because, you know, they have cheap labor, we have money, right?
To Europe, we have cheap labor and they have money.
It's like, and that's what it was previously.
Anyway, there's a whole story there.
But, Trump's come in and said, okay, I buy your premise that Russia and Europe can never be allowed to rejoin.
Because I think he bought onto that premise when he had his first administration as well.
I mean, look at him.
He gave the javelins to Ukraine and everything.
I mean, he was basically saying, like, this makes sense.
But what doesn't make sense is bankrupting our country to fight that, right?
That doesn't make sense unless you're trying to destroy the national sovereignty of the United States to make it susceptible to being integrated with a larger European Union model like globalism.
So, what does Trump do?
Calls up Zelensky and says, hey, you need our aid to fight off Russia.
We get the situation.
We'll give it to you.
Because, I mean, Zelensky is a manufactured product of the United States anyway, and Europe, to a large degree.
Probably a larger degree Europe than the United States, but both made this Frankenstein dictator figure.
He says, but here's the deal.
You're going to come to the White House, you're going to sign an agreement that says once you win this war, we will have access to the rare earth minerals in your country, which are vital, like I said.
If you think about it from a technological standpoint, in order to be a dominant power going into the future, you're not going to just need the technological capability to do certain things with Quantum computing and AI and solar harvesting, nuclear power, etc.
You're going to need the rare earth minerals to manifest those technologies.
Otherwise, you will always be dependent on whatever nation has those large reserves of rare earth minerals.
So he said, alright, I'm inviting you to the White House to sign an agreement.
That says, as a form of repayment for any aid we give you from here on, because we can't make it posthumously to say it was, because unfortunately for us, our idiot leaders before him decided to give all of that money for free.
So he said, alright, well let's bring Zelensky to the White House, have him sign an agreement to give us all the rare earth minerals, so that then at least we're getting something for the billions of dollars.
Tens of billions, hundreds of billions of dollars that we're paying.
We're getting something in return that will help us going into the future.
So this is where we set the stage for this meeting happening in the White House on Friday.
And when we come back, I will give a little more of an explainer, and we'll play the clip at some point.
But it looks like we have a caller on the line, so what we'll do is, and we're hitting a break in about 10 seconds, so here's what we'll do.
We will hit the break, come back, take the caller, if they hang on, if they want to hang on through the commercial break, and then I will get this clip played.
Sooner than later, I promise.
But I think that the context I've explained is very important to understanding what you're about to hear.
Because if I just played you the clip, a lot of people are going to listen to this clip and have listened to this clip and, oh yeah, Trump really told him.
But if you don't understand what's happening, the clip doesn't even have as much weight as it really should.
Stay tuned.
We're coming back.

Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James.
And we're back really quick, though.
We're going to continue on this Ukraine thing.
Let's see.
We have a caller.
Caller, you're on the air.
What do you got for us?
Yeah, this is Blake from Arizona.
Good morning, Craig.
Yeah, if Pavarotti, I guess that's Pavarotti, and James Brown can sing along together, why can't the whole world, right?
That's a great, great song.
A Russia-U.S. coalition or whatever you want to call it would bring is basically you have a bunch of globalists.
We know about those guys.
And then you have the nationalists.
And one thing you can say about Trump and Putin is they're pro their nation.
And I think that that's really what a Russia-U.S. coming together would mean for the world.
I love the way that you broke down the GDP as a part of what our expenditures are to the taxpayers' expenditure.
Don't forget that to Ukraine is.
And never forget, it only takes 11 and a half days for a million seconds to tick by.
And it's over 31,000 years for one trillion seconds to tick by.
So there was a really good YouTube clip, Anna K, A-N-I-A-K, and she was speaking to Alex Cranor, and he says that the UK has already signed an agreement with Zelensky before he visited Trump with the mineral rights deal.
He also says that Zelensky, All right.
Thank you.
I appreciate that call.
Yeah, great points, I think, all around there.
And this is sort of the reason that I'm doing this, is not just because it's pertinent to what we're talking about.
I also think that when you understand these broader implications, and Blake, one of the things that he said there that I thought was very important that I may not have emphasized enough, is when I said that Zelensky is a creation of Europe, and mostly a creation of Europe in the United States, but mostly Europe.
I was referring exactly to what Blake just sort of hit on, which is that the deals have already been set between Europe and or Great Britain, the UK, and particularly, but also France, and Zelensky for...
Debt repayment.
Now remember, all the aid that's going to Ukraine from Europe has been structured as debts to be repaid.
Those debts are going to be repaid in the form of probably rare earth minerals and other, you know, access to farming, whatever, right?
The resources that Ukraine has will be exploited by Europe.
Now Trump, again, has walked into this situation where he finds himself looking at The table, like imagine the global, it's like risk, right?
It's like a much more complicated version of risk with not just armies in different places, but armies, resources, you know, all these different factors, everything you can imagine.
And he's saying, well, why do they have such a favorable deal?
And we have, we're getting nothing.
We're paying for all of this without any...
And, you know, that's why when he talks about it, he talks about making deals.
So this whole thing, he brings Zelensky to the White House to say, hey, you're going to sign this deal that's basically a similarly structured deal between what you already have in place with Europe that basically stipulates that we will be repaid for this aid we are giving you.
Otherwise...
You know, we understand it serves our best interest to keep Europe and Russia from being together, so that's why we've been footing the bill to this point.
But that was a stupid deal made by stupid people who have no foresight and were obviously probably compromised to a degree by Europe.
Now remember, right?
Because a lot of this, you know, you get into these sort of tricky areas of compromisation.
Right?
What they call compromat, compromising material.
And everybody thinks, I think we're even being trained by our media right now to automatically assume that when we hear blackmail or when we hear compromat, compromising material, we have this knee-jerk association with Jeffrey Epstein, right?
And Mossad.
Or this knee-jerk reaction to...
Connect P. Diddy and celebrities, right?
But I think what a lot of people are failing to factor in is how much compromise does Europe have over the U.S.? And when I say Europe, I mean particularly the crown, right, of the U.K. and perhaps France and the old...
Generationally wealthy monarchs that never went away.
You say, well, Craig, you know, everything's democratic or parliamentarian in Europe.
There's no real monarchies left.
At least none that have any substantial power.
Oh, okay, so you're telling me in the last, I don't know, hundred or so years that All monarchies have ceased to exist and every one of these, you know, dynasties that lasted hundreds of years and were able to obtain obscene wealth beyond most of our comprehension,
that those all just dissolved and, you know, in a friendly manner turned all their assets over to the government so that the government could be a parliament and everybody could be happy.
It's sort of a naive view.
Now, I understand the French Revolution, certain things happen in certain places.
But remember, the point I'm making is this.
That what kind of compromising material do those entities possess?
And how are they influencing this whole thing?
And perhaps that's another thing that Trump's walked into.
Talk about, you know, kicking a hornet's nest.
And I think he just did with this interview, this meeting with Zelensky.
We'll play it at some point here, I promise.
Stay tuned.
We're coming back.

Thank you for your support.
There's something happening here.
What it is ain't exactly clear.
There's a man with a gun over there telling me I've got to beware.
I think it's time we stop Children, what's that sound?
Everybody look what's going down Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James, and we're in the last segment of the first hour, so I won't start this clip.
We'll wait until the second hour, but I'll kind of wrap up.
You know, the context I'm trying to provide to this meeting between Zelensky and Trump and what the implication is really of it and what happened and why it was so significant.
Because right now I think people are really looking at this from, like, you know, you had the SNL crowd on Saturday Night Live.
You know, mocking it, making fun of Trump and making fun of Elon and making it all just a big joke because, you know, this stuff is so funny.
It really is.
Like, nuclear world war, that's hilarious.
I mean, I couldn't think of a topic more funny, but, you know, it reminds me of, you know, the...
The French aristocracy laughing at the starving peasants, you know, as they scarf down their cake, let them eat cake, Marie Antoinette says.
She stuffs her gourd and then heads to the vomit room to make room for more.
But the thing is that it's, to me, There are very strong implications here, especially if you think about what was said in this conversation, which was allowed to be aired publicly, and I think he did it.
So, to give you context to the meeting, it's a sequence between Zelensky and Trump where they have a heated argument, basically, in front of the cameras about what he's doing.
And the point Trump was making, I think, is that Ukraine has gotten drunk on power.
Zelensky is not just a dictator.
He thinks he is the savior of Europe and perhaps the world in his mind.
I don't want to say it's entirely his fault.
I mean, we've played a huge part in this, right?
We spent the last three years, four years lionizing this guy, making him into a larger-than-life heroic figure in the media, at least.
We've had every politician, celebrity, and corporate leader that you can think of, you know, make their pilgrimage to Ukraine to go kiss the finger, to kiss the ring of Zelensky.
Right?
Sean Penn gave him a freaking Oscar, for crying out loud.
So, he's lost the thread, right?
He has forgotten that he is the president of a nation that, although it's significant today, perhaps 20 years from now, it will return to its irrelevancy, and he will be...
Merely a footnote in history, if that.
And he will most likely, best case scenario, be living in fear for the rest of his life, looking over his shoulder.
Every time he opens a door, turns on a car.
You know what I mean?
Worst case scenario?
Well, I'm sure you can use your imagination.
So...
He comes to the White House to sign this deal, but there's just...
There are certain things that you don't do.
And when you're negotiating with Trump, you don't play cards you don't have.
And you'll get that reference when we watch the clip later.
But keep it locked in if you want to hear it, because it is really important.
A lot of information there.
Stay tuned.

Okay.
We're going to keep going here.
I know, we've taken a while to get here.
Somebody texted in and said, perhaps Zelensky is still playing his acting role and Trump is in on it, as well as the other nations.
Their stage show is to create the background story for the next World War.
It looked pretty fake and the ramifications are enormous.
I'm just throwing that out there.
I don't know.
Perhaps.
I mean, like, look, I'm...
I'm open-minded to a large degree to all possibilities.
I try not to be stubborn in that regard because I know that a lot of times what we see and what's actually happening are not the same, right?
They're actually two very different things.
So that is a possibility.
But as I've spent the first half of the show explaining, Pragmatic and logical reason for this exchange to have happened the way it did is really quite simple.
The U.S. wanted, I'll reiterate for anybody just joining us, we're talking about Ukraine and this meeting between Trump and Zelensky at the White House, a deal to take the rare earth minerals in exchange for the aid that we were giving to them to fight Russia.
The whole premise there is that the United States made the calculation that Russia and Europe can never be allied.
An alliance between Russia and Europe could result in a Eurasian alliance of China, Russia, and Europe, which would be the worst-case scenario nightmare of the United States because those three nations, those three blocks together would...
Be able to control the world and we would be basically sitting on the outside looking in.
So this is where we're at, right?
Now, of course, we'd have our nuclear weapons, but we would probably go the same way as the British Empire did, and we all saw what happened to that when the Sterling collapsed and it went into its irrelevancy to a degree on the world stage.
That's what they're trying to keep from happening, which is why they're wedging these divisions between the nations there, particularly.
And Europe has its own problems with Russia because they don't want to return.
But you've got to remember, too, just like here in America, there's a large contingent of communists.
Who want communism, right?
And you think the same, there are socialists in Europe who want socialism, who are like, well, if we just do it right this time, maybe we won't kill 30 million people in the process, right?
So, or however many millions of people were killed.
So that's what we're contenting against, and I think Particularly with regard to...
It doesn't make sense that it's theater, right?
Because if you think about it, if it's all a role and Trump's trying to start World War III, I mean, to what end?
To destroy his country?
I don't see that as his motivation.
He's an aging man who has seemingly a high affinity toward this country and making it great again and leaving his reputation in good standing and leaving a future for his very large family who he seems to dearly love and adore.
What good would it serve him to start nuclear?
He said it in this exchange that we're going to listen to.
If you listen to it, he said, look, I'll start it at the point where he's asked a question about, you know, why are you aligning or are you going to align yourself with Russia and Ukraine to get this deal done?
And he explains, he's like, look, I'm a dealmaker.
I'm here to make a deal.
I'm here to broker peace.
And he says it very clearly as well that the biggest problem is that Zelensky has become Out of his mind.
He's high, he's drunk on power, and because he's been given all this money and lionized in the media, global media, and created into this, and put into this figure of such high standing, in his own mind, I mean, he thinks he's untouchable.
And trust me when I say, oh, how the mighty fall.
You know, hubris is not a good...
A thing for a dictator to have, you know, a high level of.
And it's being suggested now, it's being floated around, that perhaps Zelensky needs to be replaced, according to U.S. officials.
We did it once, we'll do it again.
He said, I mean, like, look, this whole thing is going out of control.
So I don't think Trump's in it trying to start World War III. It just doesn't, it doesn't track, it doesn't follow.
I mean, because that premise is all just based on, okay, well, Trump's doing, that Trump's either compromised and he's doing the will of the evil people, or it follows the track that Trump is just so greedy that he's being paid off somehow and, you know, his family's going to get...
Paid off or protected somehow while he does this.
But leaving his children and grandchildren a world of nuclear war, death and destruction, that doesn't track me.
If you're a parent, is that what you would do for your kids?
And Trump does strike me as a genuinely honest, to God, family-loving man, if not anything else.
He may be a little egotistical, he may be a little braggadocious, but the guy obviously loves his family.
So, I don't see that as the motivation.
I actually think it's more likely that what I've been saying all morning is the case, and Trump is now coming to a point where he's trying to negotiate this deal, but he's dealing with Zelensky, who's out of his mind, high on his own fumes, if you know what I mean.
But anyway, I'm going to play the clip when we come back on the other side of the break.
I promise.
Stay tuned.

You need a realtor who is honest and has integrity.
A realtor who's focused on the client's bottom line, not the realtor's bottom line.
Who provides personable, over-the-top service before, during, and after the transaction.
You want a realtor that knows how to market your property.

Hey, folks.
Did you know we have a new host, Mad Vax, on our radio show every Saturday from noon till one.
The Mad Vax and The Rev show.
Don't miss it.
This is quality radio at its best.
This is quality radio at its best.
Hi, Vladimir.
How are we doing on the deal?
It doesn't work that way.
I'm not aligned with Putin.
I'm not aligned with anybody.
I'm aligned with the United States of America.
And for the good of...
The world.
I'm aligned with the world.
And I want to get this thing over with.
You see the hatred he's got for Putin.
It's very tough for me to make a deal with that kind of hatred.
He's got tremendous hatred.
And I understand that.
But I can tell you the other side isn't exactly in love with, you know, him either.
So it's not a question of alignment.
I'm aligned with the world.
I want to get the thing set.
I'm aligned with Europe.
I want to see if we can get this thing done.
You want me to be tough?
I could be tougher than any human being you've ever seen.
I'd be so tough.
But you're never going to get a deal that way.
So that's the way it goes.
All right, one more question.
I would respond to this.
So look, for four years in the United States of America, we had a president who stood up at press conferences and talked tough about Vladimir Putin, and then Putin invaded Ukraine and destroyed a significant chunk of the country.
the path to peace and the path to prosperity is maybe engaging in diplomacy.
We tried the pathway of Joe Biden, of thumping our chest and pretending that the president of the United States' words mattered more than the president of the United States' actions.
What makes America a good country is America engaging in diplomacy.
That's what President Trump is doing.
Can I ask you?
Sure.
Yeah?
Yeah.
OK.
So he occupied our parts, big parts of Ukraine, parts of East and Crimea.
So he occupied it on 2014. So during a lot of years, I'm not speaking about just Biden, but those times was Obama, then President Obama, then President Trump, then President Biden, now President Trump, and God bless, now President Trump will stop him.
But during 2014, nobody stopped him.
He just occupied and took.
He killed people.
You know what the contact line?
2015. 2014. 2014?
I was not here.
That's exactly right.
Yes, but during 2014 until 2022, the situation is the same.
People have been dying on the contact line.
Nobody stopped him.
You know that we had conversations with him, a lot of conversations, my bilateral conversations.
And we signed with him, me, like a new president in 2019. I signed with him the deal.
I signed with him, Macron, and Merkel.
We signed ceasefire.
Ceasefire.
All of them told me that he will never go.
We signed him with gas contract.
Gas contract.
Yes, but after that, he broke in this ceasefire.
He killed our people, and he didn't exchange.
Prisoners.
We signed the exchange of prisoners.
But he didn't do it.
What kind of diplomacy, JD, you are speaking about?
What do you mean?
I'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that's going to end the destruction of your country.
Mr. President, with respect, I think it's disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media.
Right now, you guys are going around and forcing conscripts to the front lines because you have manpower problems.
You should be thanking the President for trying to bring it into this conflict.
Have you ever been to Ukraine that you say what problems we have?
I've actually watched and seen the stories, and I know what happens is you bring people, you bring them on a propaganda tour, Mr. President.
Do you disagree that you've had problems bringing people into your military?
And do you think that it's respectful to come to the Oval Office of the United States of America and attack the administration that is trying to prevent the destruction of your country?
A lot of questions.
Let's start from the beginning.
First of all, during the war, Everybody has problems.
Even you.
But you have nice ocean.
And don't feel now.
But you will feel it in the future.
God bless.
You don't know that.
God bless.
God bless.
You will not have war.
Don't tell us what we're going to feel.
We're trying to solve a problem.
Don't tell us what we're going to feel.
I'm not telling you.
Because you're in no position to dictate that.
Remember that.
You're in no position to dictate what we're going to feel.
We're going to feel very good.
We're going to feel very good and very strong.
You're right now not in a very good position.
You've allowed yourself to be in a very bad position that he happens to be right about.
You're not in a good position.
You don't have the cards right now.
With us, you start having cars.
Right now, you're playing cars.
You're playing cars.
You're gambling with the lives of millions of people.
You're gambling with World War III. You're gambling with World War III. And what you're doing is very disrespectful to the country, this country, that's backed you far more than a lot of people said they should have.
Have you said thank you once?
This entire meeting?
No, in this entire meeting, have you said thank you?
You went to Pennsylvania and campaigned for the opposition in October.
Offer some words of appreciation for the United States of America and the president who's trying to save your country.
Please, you think that if you will speak very loudly about the war, you can...
He's not speaking loudly.
He's not speaking loudly.
Your country's in big trouble.
No, no.
You've done a lot of talking.
Your country is in big trouble.
I know.
You're not winning.
You're not winning this.
I... You have a damn good chance of coming out okay because of us.
Mr. President, we are staying in our country, staying strong.
From the very beginning of the war, we've been alone.
And we are thankful.
I said thanks in this cabinet.
We gave you, through this stupid president, $350 billion.
We gave you military equipment.
And you men are brave, but they had to use our military.
If you didn't have our military equipment, if you didn't have our military equipment, This war would have been over in two weeks.
In three days.
I heard it from Putin.
In three days.
This is something new.
Maybe less.
In two weeks, of course, yes.
It's going to be a very hard thing to do business like this, I tell you.
To say thank you, except that there are disagreements, and let's go litigate those disagreements rather than trying to fight it out in the American media when you're wrong.
We know that you're wrong.
But you see, I think it's good for the American people to see what's going on.
I think it's very important.
That's why I kept this going so long.
You have to be thankful.
You don't have the cards.
You're buried there.
Your people are dying.
You're running low on soldiers.
Listen.
You're running low on soldiers.
It would be a damn good thing.
Then you tell us, I don't want to cease fire.
I don't want to cease fire.
I want to go, and I want this.
Look.
If you could get a ceasefire right now, I tell you, you'd take it so the bullets stop flying and your men stop getting killed.
Of course we want to stop the war.
But I said to you, I want a ceasefire.
Because you'll get a ceasefire faster than an agreement.
Ask our people about a ceasefire.
What do they think?
It doesn't matter for you what this means.
That was with a guy named Biden, who was not a smart person.
That was with Obama.
Excuse me.
That was with Obama, who gave you sheets, and I gave you javelins.
I gave you the javelins to take out all those tanks.
Obama gave you sheets.
In fact, the statement is, Obama gave sheets and Trump gave javelins.
You've got to be more thankful, because let me tell you, you don't have the cards.
With us, you have the cards.
But without us, you don't have any cards.
One more question to Mr. Vice President.
Sorry, here.
It'll be a tough deal to make.
Because the attitudes have to change.
What if Russia breaks this fire?
What if Russia breaks these talks?
What do you do there?
I understand that it's a heated conversation right now.
What are you saying?
She's asking what if Russia breaks the ceasefire?
What if anything?
What if a bomb drops on your head right now?
Okay?
What if they broke it?
I don't know.
They broke it with Biden because Biden, they didn't respect him.
They didn't respect Obama.
They respect me.
Let me tell you, Putin went through a hell of a lot with me.
He went through a phony witch hunt where they used him and Russia.
Russia, Russia, Russia.
You ever hear of that deal?
That was a phony Hunter Biden, Joe Biden scam.
Hillary Clinton, Shifty Adam Schiff.
It was a Democrat scam.
And he had to go through that.
And he did go through it.
We didn't end up in a war.
And he went through it.
He was accused of all that stuff.
He had nothing to do with it.
It came out of Hunter Biden's bathroom.
It came out of Hunter Biden's bedroom.
It was disgusting.
And then they said, oh, oh, the laptop from hell was made by Russia.
The 51 agents.
The whole thing was a scam.
And he had to put up with that.
He was being accused of all that stuff.
All I can say is this.
He might have broken deals with Obama, and he might have broken them with Biden.
He did, maybe.
Maybe he didn't.
I don't know what happened.
But he didn't break them with me.
He wants to make a deal.
I don't know if he can make a deal.
The problem is...
I've empowered you to be a tough guy.
And I don't think you'd be a tough guy without the United States.
And your people are very brave.
But you're either going to make a deal or we're out.
And if we're out, you'll fight it out.
I don't think it's going to be pretty.
But you'll fight it out.
But you don't have the cards.
But once we sign that deal, you're in a much better position.
But you're not acting at all thankful.
And that's not a nice thing.
I'll be honest, that's not a nice thing.
All right.
I think we've seen enough.
What do you think?
This is going to be great television, I will say that.
All right.
We'll see what we can do about putting that together.
All right.
Welcome back.
Just Informed Talk.
Radio Craig here.
But that was the clip.
That was the clip.
That was the exchange.
And I hope I did a good job setting the stage for that to give you the...
You know, allowing himself to get heated.
Usually, this is probably the most, you know, other than what we've seen out of Trump when he was being, you know, arrested, and even then he showed a level of control that was very, you know, impressive.
But with this exchange, you can tell he realizes...
Not only the implications of it, but he tells this Zelensky guy to his face, hey, we're three.
So anyway, the end result of this was, as I understand it, Zelensky left without the deal being signed.
The U.S. is now...
Re-evaluating their relationship toward funding of Ukraine, probably because of that exchange coupled with whatever was said behind closed doors between Zelensky and Trump, which probably was something to the effect of...
Look, it's like I said.
Trump said, we allowed you to be a tough guy.
What he's referring to is the fact that through our aid and weaponry and all of that, Zelensky thinks he's basically the, he thinks he's like General Douglas MacArthur for the forces of good.
Like, he thinks he's patent.
He thinks he's the general who is saving Europe and the United States and the whole world.
And it couldn't be anything further from the truth.
As Trump said, if we remove our support, you're not going to last very long.
Now, I don't think Trump really wants to do that because, like I said, east or westward expansion of Russia is detrimental toward...
It's not even westward expansion.
It's opening up lanes of communication and trade between Russia and Europe.
The more they open, the less significant the relationship between the United States and Europe becomes.
And that in and of itself is the threat.
But at the same time, Trump...
Pragmatically and rightfully realizes and recognizes that if you bankrupt the United States trying to keep the relationship from blossoming there, the alliance from naturally occurring as it most likely eventually will if everything moves a certain direction, what's the point?
You'll destroy our country.
You'll cut off your nose to spite your face, metaphorically speaking.
And in a way, that's exactly what Trump is dealing with right now.
And he's walked into the middle of this where there aren't a lot of good options.
There aren't a lot of good ways in which Trump can maneuver his way through this.

1360khnc.com Welcome
back to Just Form Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James, and we're continuing down this thread talking about what is happening in Europe and what's happening in Ukraine particularly and how that's all affecting us here in the United States.
And this will have implications for us, surely.
It already has.
I mean, think of the drain of just monetary resources, the money that we've dumped into this, not to mention the military resources we've And the political, you know, favor we've lost with other nations because of it, we've put ourselves in a very precarious position.
And it's not just us.
I mean, this is a joined effort.
So we listened to this meeting between Trump and Zelensky, right?
And the exchange that we heard was bad enough, but I heard that the exchange behind closed doors was even worse.
Which led to, of course, Trump basically saying that the United States is not going to do a deal, at least not yet, with Ukraine, and that they're sort of on their own now, as it were.
But this doesn't even go far enough, because apparently, not only was that deal kind of taken off the table, so to speak, but they also now...
People inside of Trump's administration, people close to him, I think it's his, was it Mike Waltz, is that his name?
The National Security Advisor is floating the idea that perhaps Zelensky needs to be replaced.
Now, I mean, they don't have elections in Ukraine, so when you say replace a guy like him, I mean, again, you can use your imagination to sort of figure out what's being implied there.
Hint, hint, wink, wink.
As they would say colloquially.
But this is where Trump finds himself.
Right?
So we had a texter from the 307 say, it is disgusting to me that people are blaming Trump.
Ukraine was considered one of the most corrupt countries in the world during Obama.
Millions of dollars have disappeared and now Zelensky walks into the White House with an attitude the only bad guy is Zelensky.
No, I agree.
I think that's a very fair assessment.
I don't know if the only bad guy is Zelensky.
I mean, there are a lot of bad people doing a lot of bad things, but in that particular scenario, the context, yeah.
I mean, Zelensky was, he's walking in there with this air of entitlement, which can only be achieved after you've received hundreds of billions of dollars in free U.S. aid.
And he's sitting there, I mean, like, Zelensky is playing with fire.
But you've got to remember, with Zelensky, he's got nothing to lose.
Think about it.
Russia wants him dead.
That's just clear as day.
But actually, to a degree, I don't think they've taken him out yet because in a weird way, Zelensky's actually helping Russia in the PR battles, not just at home, but...
Abroad because of his attitude and behavior and how he's literally making himself out to be this.
I mean, the guy's, half the time he's hopped up on coke, the other half the time he's, you know, running around pretending to be the next, or to be the savior of Europe.
And they're playing along with it too, so it's not entirely his fault.
So the whole thing is Trump saying, you know, look, Ukraine is important, but it's not that important.
And Zelensky's been told over the last several years, as a matter of fact, that Ukraine is the most important thing to American national security.
And I think this is the first time he's ever encountered anybody in the last at least four years who said, By the way, buddy, you're just a tin-pot dictator in a small, meaningless Eastern European country, by the way.
Now, the implications of your country and its resource wealth and geopolitical blockage of creating a wedge between Russia and Europe, that is established and well documented as being important.
But Zelensky himself...
No matter who he may or may not be related to, which there's people who say he's related to Soros, blah, blah, blah, I don't know.
But no matter who your daddy is, it ain't going to protect you.
Especially once the United States turns.
But what's been interesting now is that the UK and France have come out and announced, in spite of President Trump, Basically saying the deal's off for the natural resources in exchange for aid,
that they will back Ukraine, which goes again to prove that the leaders in Europe do not want to play ball with Russia.
They fear...
Factions within their own countries that want to create these alliances.
Just as much as the factions in the United States fear, the deep state factions fear people who would say, why aren't we Russian allies?
Because it would seem to make sense from a semi-ideological position.
I mean, not that we're entirely aligned by any means, but, you know, the Cold War is over and Russia's got a lot of resource wealth that we could extract.
And Vladimir Putin came out, because remember, the deal that Zelensky was going to sign was for natural resources in exchange for aid with the United States.
So Vladimir Putin went on state television in Russia the other day and said, look, if that's what the United States wants, we have more natural resources and rare earth minerals than Ukraine will ever have.
So why don't we just partner?
We'll make that deal with the United States if they're interested.
Now, of course, you'd have to be a fool to sign on that dotted line.
Because, you know, there's a difference between establishing a rare earth deal with a country like Ukraine, where if they don't...
If you agree to follow all the rules of the deal, you can just send some bombs and tanks in there and take what you want, like you did in Iraq and every other one of these countries.
But if we spend a bunch of money building infrastructure to extract rare earth minerals in Russia, and then they just decide one day to say, hey, yeah, you know those minerals we said we'd give you?
Well, now we want ten times more, please.
Oh yeah, well no, thank you for building the mines to extract them, but if you want the minerals, then you're going to have to pay.
And they have nuclear weapons.
Whereas Ukraine doesn't.
So you see the difference here.
That's the primary difference.
So, I mean, and you've got to remember, I'm just extrapolating what I imagine is being discussed behind closed doors.
With regard to these certain situations, and there's probably much more that I'm missing, I'm sure, but this is the general sense that I get when I see it.
So we had another texter text in who said, Vladimir Zelensky's got a $35 million home in Florida, and they're very perplexed on how Zelensky, a very lewd and crude comic who played the piano with his...
Ding dong.
Who are we the people who acknowledge him as president of Ukraine?
Look, here's the thing.
I guess it's not up to us to really acknowledge people who are Ukrainians, but you have to remember, Zelensky is a creation of the Europeans in the deep state here in America.
He was molded and created in the fires of Mordor, as they would say, and molded and shaped into the ring, if you will, to use a J.R. Tolkien analogy, to control them all, right?
To save Europe, to be the lionized savior of Europe.
He's a puppet.
But he thinks he's started to believe his own, you know, myth.
And that's dangerous for all of us because that means he's liable to do anything, and who knows what that means.
Stay tuned, though.
No, we're coming back.
Okay, I've been hearing a lot about the LifeWave patches, and they sound amazing.
And I'm thinking I want to try them for myself.
But can you tell me how they work?
Okay, well, you wear the patch, which is about the size of a quarter, 12 hours a day, 12 on, 12 off.
And the patch uses your body's own light and energy and copper peptides to reactivate the dormant stem cells in your body.
Once a stem cell has been reactivated, it can be used by any of the cells in your body that need it, creating a healing and growth process you haven't experienced since your youth.
So in a nutshell, This is how the LifeWave X39 patch works.

Welcome back to Just Form Talk Radio.
I'm your host, Craig James, and a few stories to kind of coincide with what we've already discussed here.
Keir Starmer, as I said before, the Prime Minister of Great Britain, the rabid leftist, that is, Prime Minister of Great Britain, has come out and said that he's ready to send boots on the ground to Ukraine as they've given him another $2 billion.
Now remember, The importance of Ukraine for the United States is far less than the importance of Ukraine for a European country like Great Britain.
Think about the situation Great Britain finds itself in.
Waning global influence, an empire that is in sharp decline.
A very small land mass with a large number of people that is, for better or worse, becoming less capable of even keeping up with its own citizens' consumption rates, particularly with the conspicuous consumption of Western nations in general.
And the resource wealth of Ukraine is far more vital to the existence, the existential existence into the future of Great Britain than it is of Russia or the United States.
I mean, Great Britain, at the end of the day, is a tiny little island with nuclear weapons, yes, but a tiny little island that's empire has fallen.
The sun does, in fact, set on the British Empire now, and they need that farmland more than they need anything else, I would imagine.
They need that farmland.
They need the wheat and the bread that will subsequently be made by it.
Now, this is for, I mean, remember, from the perspective that they would like to be in control of a country that is subservient to them, that they can exploit.
How do you live a first world lifestyle when your country doesn't have the means or capability of sustaining itself in a first world lifestyle?
Well, you exploit a third world nation.
Or a second world nation.
Which I guess you would probably kind of consider Ukraine.
Second tier, second world nation.
So the whole point is...
And they could, you know, they could ask Russia.
If Russia takes over, they could do deals with Russia.
But then they're at the beck and heel, you know, and call of Russia.
They could do deals with the United States.
But then, of course, the same situation presents itself where then they are subservient to the United States because we would have, you know, the food that they need.
And this isn't a problem that's specifically Britain's.
This is Europe's problem as a whole.
Where are they going to get their food?
And they've had this, you know, green push for the Green New Deal, and a lot of that is taking, see, I think what the calculation is more overly there is that the resource, the value of the resource You know,
you often see these videos of farmers in Europe protesting because their land's being taken away and their farms are being shut down, right?
Well, what's happening there is a consolidation of power and assets.
European nations are realizing that These smaller agrarian farms communities are wielding more and more power over the centers of power and control that they don't want to see happen.
So they have to disavow them of their, I don't know if I used that correctly, but to take away their land so that they are not able to dictate.
The future course of Europe.
And again, who are taking these farms away?
Well, as I said before, the same generational wealth in the monarchs, it didn't disappear.
It just became corporations and foundations and politicians who don't disclose their family ties and who their bloodlines are connected to.
But just as in feudal times, when, you know, a king would, a monarch would arrive after a battle and look at the serf with his tiny little farm and say, this is now the king's farm.
And he'd stamp his, you know, flag over it.
This is the farm of King Ferdinand III. You are now his loyal subject.
We will expect your fiefs, your...
You know, your next harvest in six months' time, thank you.
Well, that's what's happening in Europe.
And all that, you know, all the pleasantries of private property and individual...
Liberty and everything that was promised after the French Revolution and all the implementation of the parliamentary system and the removal of the monarchy and all the monarchies, it all just got thrown out the window when the rubber meets the road.
When they realized, oh crap, there's too many people for us, we can't feed them all, and they're being fed by people who are getting rich who aren't us.
Well, that can't stand.
It'll happen here in America soon enough.
Unless we do something to stop it, I guess.
But yeah, I think that's it in a nutshell.
So, hopefully that gave you context and better understanding of the situation.
Otherwise, it probably just left you more confused and lost.
But hopefully that's not the case.
It's a complicated issue, and I don't...
Certainly don't have all the answers.
I just think that's interesting that that's where we're at.
So when we come back, we've already made it to the end of the show.
Believe it or not, we're going to have our last segment.
Do what God's grace is greater, and we'll send you guys packing with some hope and encouragement.
Stay tuned.

When I was broken at the bottom, I found you're my healer and redeemer, Jesus.
That's who you are.
You brought me blessings out of a tragedy.
You turned my old song into a symphony.
And with your spirit living inside of me, I'm a new creation.
I'm a new creation.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
But it rose until I stumbled and made my mistakes.
Then I could know in my soul how amazing was grace.
Welcome back to Just Forum Talk Radio.
It's our final segment, and it's our God's Grace's Career segment.
found a verse that speaks very directly to what we talked about here today.
And I would say that this is a verse all of the leaders involved in these deals around the world, especially, you know...
Our leaders and the leaders of other countries should be looking at very closely.
And it talks about human greed, and it's in 2 Timothy 6, verses 4 through 10. Or 3-10.
It says, Who imagined that godliness is
a way to material gain?
But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into this world and we can take nothing out of it.
But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with these.
But those who want to be rich fall into temptation, a trap, and many foolish and harmful desires which plunge people into ruin and destruction.
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, and by craving it, some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pains.
Those are very wise words.
Timeless.
And wise words that speak just as clearly to us today as it did to those who first heard these words.
And I would hope that not only do our leaders heed these words carefully, but that we enact these words in our lives day to day.
Because a lot of times there are things that are out of our control.
We're not going to be able to control very much what happens in the realm of global geopolitical conflicts, although we can study, observe, and understand them quite well.
But in our day-to-day lives, how are we dealing with one another?
Are we dealing with one another in a conceited way, without understanding, finding an interest?
In disputes amongst ourselves and arguments?
Is that breeding envy and quarrel and slander and evil suspicions and constant disagreement in our lives?
Is the deprivation of truth leading us to believe that a relationship with God is about material wealth and gain?
Or are we content with what God has given us today?
The breath in our lungs, the sunlight on our foreheads.
Are we remembering that we brought nothing into this world and can take nothing out?
These are all very important questions we should ask ourselves.
And remember, the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.
So that's where I'm going to leave it.
If you guys haven't accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior, open your hearts, say a prayer, and call upon His name.
We'll be back tomorrow.
Same time, same place, God willing.
Until then, I'm your host, Craig James.
