Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, it's me Michael. Your morning show can be heard
live five to eight am Central, six to nine Eastern
and great cities like Jackson, Mississippi, Akron, Ohio, or Columbus, Georgia.
We'd love to be a part of your morning routine
and we're grateful you're here now. Enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:14):
Good morning, fellas, I hear you.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
I'm here one, two three, starting your morning off right.

Speaker 2 (00:22):
A new way of talk, a new way of understanding.

Speaker 4 (00:26):
Because we're in this together. This is your Morning Show
with Michael o'bill Charman. Ukrainian President Zelenski meets with President
Trump at the White House today to discuss the war
with Russia. You'll be joined by several European leaders Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Finland.

(00:46):
The US State Department is stopping approvals of visitor visas
for people from the Gaza, the House Probe, and Jeffrey
Epstein's sex trafficking case. We'll hear from its first witness
on Monday today. And the biggest power all jackpot of
the year continues to grow. We had no tickets matched
all six numbers on Saturday Nights drawing. Therefore Monday's drawing

(01:09):
now an estimated worth of six hundred and five million.
Is that the largest ever? I believe it is got
to be close. I don't play the lottery. I know
I'm missing out. You can't. I started playing a lottery
twenty one, I'd be out six oh five million. That's
not even close.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
Six oh five million.

Speaker 4 (01:28):
Oh god, no, it's it's nine hundred million. I think
it went over a billion one time, did it? Yeah?
I should have bought a ticket. I could have lost.
And then we have Hurricane Aaron again not going to
hit the US, but could bring life. What they're calling,
you know, because the Weather Channel they can't miss out

(01:49):
on this. You got to put somebody there and scare them.
Life threatening surf and riptide currents u in the Eastern
Seaboard in the coming days, something for the East Coast
to keep an eye on. That's just some of the
top stories were five. Of course, everything is Russia, Russia, Russia.
If you were to try to surf news, and I
hope you took a break over the weekend, everything was Russia, Russia, Russia,

(02:11):
and frankly, I don't mind having any discussion you want
to have about it. I'm gonna come back to one
piece of audio. Poor Marco Rubio, he had to experience
face the nation, meet the press. What's the one with
the radics on ABC? Is it called this week or
what is it this week? This week on ABC? All

(02:34):
of them? I mean they were just attack, attack, attack, attack, attack,
as if they're not. I mean, why wouldn't you before this?
I mean, nothing is nothing at least this is worth
a shot, right, So, I mean, just attack after attack
after attack. You shouldn't have rolled out the red carpet,

(02:57):
you shouldn't have met him on US soil, all this
non sense. And finally Marco Rubio, probably having had enough,
decided to remind everybody this isn't our war. I mean,

(03:19):
the US wants to take every chance it can to
bring peace, but at the end of the day, this
isn't our war. We're we're not trying to strong arm
anybody like this is not our war. The United States
is not in a war.

Speaker 5 (03:33):
Ukraine is in a war, and we've been supporting Ukraine.
We happen to be in the role of the only
country in the world. We're the only leader in the
world that can actually bring putin to a table to
even discuss these things.

Speaker 4 (03:44):
Now.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
The President has traveled, you know, all the way to
Alaska all the way back, has dedicated months and months
of work him, our entire team on this matter because
we want to see an end of the war. But
if tomorrow the war continues, life in America will not
be fundamentally altered.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
So I think that we're have to understand is that
this has.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Been a priority for this president because he wants to
promote peace.

Speaker 4 (04:04):
I mean, it's but it was so profound. Did somebody
just say it, You're trying to turn this into Trump
This is about Plutin invading Ukraine. In fact, I'm glad
the President finally brought up Look, you're gonna have a

(04:27):
hard time ending this without at least allowing them to
have what they had before they invaded. When Biden did nothing,
and that includes Crimea that they invaded in twenty fourteen,
and other than sanctions, Obama did nothing. So waking up
this morning, the President saying, look all these and by

(04:51):
the way, the media is trying to present these NATO
leaders and nations coming to protect Zelensky when they were
invited by the president, probably deep down for the purposes
of so you can't say I strong armed anything. It's

(05:16):
a little bit of a your morning show posture, isn't it.
We're all in this together, so let's all gather at
the White House. Not to mention, I don't have to
go back now to Britain separately, France separately, German separately,
Italy separately. Everybody's can be on the same page. But

(05:37):
the President is proposing that Zelensky can end this war
right now. He just has to do two things kind
of where he was before the war began. So he
loses nothing and gains nothing. Just go back to being
a sovereign nation minus Crimea and you know, entrance into NATO.

(06:01):
That's it. And we learned from Steve Woodkoff that the
US envoy Putin had And by the way, this is
the game changer that makes meeting number one, in my opinion,
a success. I would have thought Putin would want several things,

(06:23):
and he knows the weak spot of everything is US support,
US security guarantees. And apparently the President came away from
Alaska with Putin acknowledging US security guarantees. So you know,
Ukraine's gonna have to give up, give something up unless

(06:46):
they want to continue and fight until they win, and
the presidents saying, if you'd just let go of Crimea
that was taken in twenty fourteen, and if that's such
a big concession, we'll take it up with Barack Obama,

(07:06):
not President Trump. Give up being in NATO and allow
them to maintain Crimea and you still get US security guarantees,
which was the focus of Zelenski the first time around.
So that's kind of where we're at. And everybody, you know,
of course, the media, the Democrats, the left, all rooting

(07:29):
against this. I don't know why they wouldn't be hopeful
or for peace or just curious. I don't mind curious.
In fact, I love curiosity. Curiosity is in the DNA
of every intelligent person, of every critical thinker. But they're
not curious. They're attacking and attacking with false narratives. Coming

(07:55):
up five thirty, I'm going to do a whole segment
where you can just see what poor, poor, now Marco
Rubio is just an amazing statesman, but they're throwing one ridiculous,
stupid narrative after another. Damn. That's why I played that clip. Finally, Hey,
how about the reminder, this isn't our war. We're here

(08:15):
to manipulate anything. If they want to keep fighting, if
they want to keep dying, guess what it'll be Monday
in America. But we do care, and we don't like
war because wars don't always end where they start and
with the same players they start with. War is never
a comfortable thing you should turn a blind eye to.

(08:37):
And life is sacred because God is sacred. And nobody
should be watching all this death and going ah, that's
Ukraine's problem, that's Rusha's problem. But you get none of
that from the media. What you get is ridiculous focus
on red carpets, military flyovers. I don't know how red fields,

(09:00):
But other than some narrative nods, I thought Hillary was
the most fair. I mean, Hillary's saying, you know, I
probably wouldn't have had it in Alaska, but this has
showing great leadership. And if the president wants a Nobel Priests,
I got news for you. If he creates peace and
ends this war, he deserves a Nobel Peace pro At
least Hillary was reasonable in her bloat. She looks something

(09:26):
looks different. Is it because the hair straight?

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Why?

Speaker 4 (09:31):
I'm not being mean, I'm just saying something looks different.
Look at red focused for a change? Oh focused? Oh
that was it. I'm not used seeing her. Oh, by
the way, do we have Kamala Harris drunk again? We
would call that Monday, wouldn't we? Well, she decides, by

(09:51):
the way, everybody's talking about Russia, she's talking about the
Texas legislature leaving for Illinois, and that's everywhere they went Massachusetts.
They're already back in Texas. So she's not an old story.
But I would say the my ruling would be everybody

(10:17):
says drunk? Am I the only one that sees more prescription? Perhaps?
I mean, I don't know why we assume alcohol drunk
or drugged? I don't know what it was.

Speaker 6 (10:29):
But well, she's she has a history of liking wine.
I mean, I think that's where that comes from. All right, well,
drunk or drugged? What does kinda sound like you're.

Speaker 7 (10:41):
Cheating?

Speaker 8 (10:42):
They want to change the current system to make it
bend towards the outcome they want. And so, you know,
do you believe in public reporting? They get a call
that says, hey, redo your lines, even though the is
going to include exactly what you said, which is, you know,

(11:04):
taking the franchise the pot away from specific community.

Speaker 4 (11:08):
I mean it's something I don't know. I've seen her
slurring worse, could be a cucktail of both. I think
she's just she's just feeling good. Off topic, We're feeling good.
So you know, there's some irrelevant stuff out there. There's
a lot of relevant things to keep your eye on
the ball. There is the symptoms of death of journalism.

(11:28):
I mean, we'll cover it all. There are people like
Hillary Clinton and even Morning Joe that are kind of
coming to their senses. I thought the most fascinating thing
we could talk about today and the most relevant thing
for our kids just as we turned, you know, And

(11:48):
I don't know how to say this other than the
just flat out say it. If the media is disgusted
with Russia, if the media is disgusted with what's happened
to Ukraine, where was that discussed in twenty fourteen when
they just took CRIMEA and other than sanctions and a condemnation,

(12:09):
nothing from President Obama. So I don't see a media
that is really quite frankly, very honest or serious or
consistent about peace or war in this topic. But there's
a new poll eighty eight percent of all students feel

(12:31):
compelled and I know this firsthand because all three of
my kids have had to do it. And by the way,
this is focused at the university level. Let me tell
you something. It begins in K through twelve, where my
kids knew the teacher was a liberal freak and they
just put on a facade to get through the class.

(12:53):
It is what is called the minefield of ideological conformity.
Kids are going to school to be educated, to be
prepared for higher education or the workforce or citizenship. They're
not there to have to dodge minefields of liberal mind

(13:14):
control and social control. But eighty eight percent, nearly nine
out of ten, are doing it. And they're doing it
because they have to. Another thing we've turned a blind
eye to for generations. It's out of control. That is
our feature poll of the day. We have, of course,
all our correspondents and contributors today to help us understand this.

(13:37):
So stick around. We'll get started next. Hey, what if
you could delay your next two mortgage payments. I don't know,
I what your mortgage payment is? Two thousand a month,
four thousand a month, five thousand month. Two of those
in your pocket. That's some breathing room. It's possible when
you call American Financing today if you're feeling stretched by
everyday expenses. I laugh at that because whizend groceries, gas

(14:02):
bills piling up. You're not alone, and most Americans are
putting these expenses on credit cards. Now. They're feeling buried
in high interest credit card debt with no way out.
But there is. You could take an action right now,
early this morning and call American Financing. They'll show you
how to use your home s equity to pay off
your debt. You need to call American Financing today before

(14:26):
you get to the point where you can't make those payments.
That's when it's too late. Their salary based mortgage consultants
are helping homeowners every day restructure their loans and consolidate
their debt without any upfront fees, and their customers are
saving on average eight hundred dollars or more a month.
It's like getting a ten thousand dollars raise. It's fast,
it's simple, and it could be your peace of mind today.

(14:49):
You got everything to save and nothing to lose. Call
eight six six eight eight five nineteen forty eight for
American Financing Today. Eight six six eight eight five nineteen
forty eight eight, six, six eighty five, nineteen forty eight.
Or the way I'd do it is start right online
at American Financing dot net forward slash Michael. This is

(15:09):
your morning show with Michael del Chuno. Well, if you
go back to Zelensky's first meeting at the White House,
his number one chief concern was real US security guarantees. Well,
that makes one of the biggest hurdles already met. Thus,
the meeting in Alaska with Putin's success, US Special Envoy

(15:29):
Steve Whitcoff says President Trump and Putin agreed to robust
security guarantees for Ukraine. Mark Mayfield has details.

Speaker 9 (15:39):
Witgoff talked about the agreement in an interview with CNN's
State of the Union.

Speaker 10 (15:43):
We got to an agreement that the United States and
other European nations could effectively offer Article five like language
to cover a security guarantee.

Speaker 9 (15:58):
Witkof, who sat in on Trump's meeting with Putin on Friday,
he said it was the first time we had ever
heard the Russians agree to such a provision.

Speaker 4 (16:05):
He said.

Speaker 9 (16:05):
Other riemas also included a legislative enshroinnement bar in Russia
to not go into any other territory when the peace
deal is codified.

Speaker 4 (16:13):
I'm Mark Neefield. Secretary of State Marco Rubio says while
a ceasefire is still an option for Russian Ukraine, the
focus remains on coming to a peace deal that permanently
ends the war.

Speaker 3 (16:22):
Rubio outlined the priority during an appearance on NBC's Meet
the Press.

Speaker 5 (16:26):
I mean, who would be against the fact if tomorrow
we came to you and said we have a full
peace deal.

Speaker 2 (16:31):
And it's done. I think that's the best way to
end the war.

Speaker 4 (16:33):
Now.

Speaker 2 (16:33):
Whether there needs to be.

Speaker 5 (16:34):
A ceasefire on the way there, well, we've advocated for that.
Unfortunately the Russians as of now have not agreed to that.

Speaker 3 (16:40):
His comments come just days after President Trump's historic summit
with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in Alaska. Trump called that
meeting productive, but said that no deal was made. I'm
Tammy Trhio.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
I don't know what happened last night, but the Bills
lost thirty eight to nothing to the Bears. Hey, it
doesn't count, it's just preseason. But looking forward to the
next installment of Hard Knocks, I can assure you Lions
lost twenty four to seventeen to the Finns. Titans one
twenty three to twenty over the Falcons. Browns beat the
Eagles twenty two to thirteen, Bucks one seventeen fourteen over
the Steelers. Cardinals fell twenty seven to seven to the Broncos,

(17:13):
Rams twenty three twenty two at one point winner over
the Chargers, and the forty nine Ers buy a field
goal over the Raiders twenty two to nineteen.

Speaker 6 (17:21):
I'm Orando Mathers in Smyrna, Tennessee, and my morning show
is your morning show with Michael Dale Journal.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Hey, it's Michael reminding you that your morning show can
be heard live each weekday morning five to eighth Central,
six to nine Eastern in great cities like Nashville, Tennessee,
two Below, Mississippi and Sacramento, California. You'd love to be
a part of your morning routine and take the drive
to work with but better late than never.

Speaker 4 (17:51):
We're grateful you're here. Now.

Speaker 1 (17:53):
Enjoy the podcast.

Speaker 4 (17:54):
Swing that lag over the bed, Go get yourself a
cup of coffee. Uh. The Keepsie was the one hundredth
your morning show station. We'll never forget Number one Nashville, Okay.
Then was Tulsa and Oklahoma City. Tampa was up there
in the beginning too. I'll never forget fifty. That was Detroit, Michigan.
I was born in Flint, and one hundred is Poughkeepsie.

(18:15):
I actually know who number one hundred and one is,
though I won't tell you till. If you're good to me,
I may whisper to you off the air. Hey, everybody,
if you're just waking up, it really doesn't matter where
you're listening from. Welcome to America's kitchen table. This show
doesn't belong to a company or radio station. It certainly
doesn't belong to me. It belongs to you. This is

(18:35):
your morning show. Jeffrey playing all those classic hits from
the seventies, eighties.

Speaker 9 (18:40):
And.

Speaker 4 (18:43):
He'll handle all the sound. Red's keeping an eye on
the content. And you know what today is all about.
So Ukrainian President Zelenski will meet with President Trump, but
not alone. He'll be joined by several European leaders Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Finland.
The left would have you believe the narrative, they're there
to make sure that well, Donald Trump doesn't bully Zelensky

(19:07):
like Donald Trump's in the bullying Zelensky business. They were
invited by the President. This is for everybody to be
on the same page for progress to be made, and
the President is suggesting there's just two things Zolensky needs
to do and this work and be in ceased fire immediately.
Probably the biggest breakthrough, certainly the biggest what led to

(19:30):
the whole uncomfortable Oval Office moment was Zelensky Trump and JD.
Vance was over US security guarantee assurances. And apparently President
Trump and Putin had an agreement there that the US
would be allowed to provide security guarantees. So what are

(19:52):
the two things? One got to give up? Any aspirations
to being in NATO t CRIMEA was given away in
twenty fourteen when nobody stopped it then, and that was
certainly the position before the war started. Those two things
Donald Trump feels like could end this war. And they're

(20:16):
reasonable things. I mean, we all said you're gonna have
to give up something to end this war. But the
assurance of US provided security guarantees and our interests that
are already there in mineral rights that's there. And then
everything back to where it was before Putin invaded and

(20:37):
Biden did nothing. That does mean they would maintain control
of crimea which if you don't like that, see Barack Obama.
In twenty fourteen, the biggest powerball jackpot of the year
continues to grow. The lottery says we had no matching numbers,
so it's now up to six hundred and five million.
I thought that was a record. Apparently when I get
to a billion for it to be you know what,

(20:57):
if it gets to a billion, out buy my first
lottery ticket and if I want a billion dollars, I'll
just give whatever after taxes away and just well maybe
leave take a few hundred thousand for myself about being red.
Why do people do that? My wife said that the
other day, Oh, what's it at? I may have to

(21:19):
go buy one. Would you believe the largest one was
two point four billion? Seriously? And who won that?

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Not me?

Speaker 6 (21:27):
Some musk at twenty two years old, some guy who
has now broke again.

Speaker 4 (21:34):
Hurricane Aaron is a hurricane and slapping around Puerto Rico
right now. For the US, we just think there's gonna
be some life threatening surf and rip currents on the
Eastern Seaboard in the coming days. That should be easy
to warn and avoid all right, I want to just
cover this for you waking up only because a long
time ago I was the first to say journalism's dead.

(21:55):
And the way I did it was to talk about
not Donald Trump's victory over Hillary Clinton, as significant as
it was, and I'm one of the few that predicted it.
Although I got to be honest with you, my mind
told me Trump was going to win, as I did
the math of the map. In my heart, I really

(22:18):
it just seemed too good to be true. But then
when I saw the exit polling early in the afternoon,
I went, well, just as I saw it would be,
I think it's going to be And then the night
unfolded in spectacular fashion. So days later I'm talking to
my audience, I said, listen, the most significant thing that

(22:40):
happened in twenty sixteen was not Donald Trump's defeat of
Hillary Clinton, as wonderful as that was. It was the
blatant death of journalism. And that is not a victory
for the right. It's a defeat for our republic. It's
going to create a lasting dysfunction beyond irritant dysfunction. And

(23:02):
they didn't care who saw it. And that's when people,
I mean We've known bias forever, but that's when you realize,
oh my gosh, they're in the Democrat Party's back pocket.
Can't win, can't win, mocked, mocked one, cried tantrum, and
then did nothing but attack. No respect for the office

(23:24):
of the presidency or the vote of the American people.
It's despicable and it's unchanged. That was evident this weekend.
How would you like to be Marco Rubio? First you
got to go and face the nation with Margaret Brennan
and be attacked. Then you got to go and meet
the press with Kristin Welker and be attacked. And they
got to go on this week with ABC with Martha
Rattits and be attacked, because that's what the media thinks

(23:45):
its job is. And this is all gonna I'm gonna
go ahead and give away the headline. This is all
going to culminate with Marco Rubio reminding these goofballs. This
isn't our war. Are you making this about Trump? He's
just somebody that cares and is trying to help. So
Lenski can do whatever he wants, Putin can do whatever

(24:05):
they want. At the end of the day, it's their war.
They want to keep fighting and dying. We hate that.
But America will get up and go to work on
Monday morning. But this is the kind of narrativized hostility.
Marco Rubio had to face all weekend long, this is

(24:27):
CBS News and face the nation.

Speaker 5 (24:30):
But you said that they're coming here tomorrow to keep
Zelensky for being bullied. They're not coming here tomorrow. Oh,
this is such a stupid media narrative that they're coming
here tomorrow because the Trump is going to bully Lensky
into a bad deal. We've been working with these people
for weeks, for weeks on this stuff. They're coming here
tomorrow because they chose to come here tomorrow. We invited
them to come. We invited them to come. The President

(24:50):
invited them to come.

Speaker 11 (24:51):
But the President told those European leaders last week that
he wanted to ceasefire. The President went on television and
said he would walk out of the meeting if Vladimir
Putin didn't agree with on He said there would be
severe consequences if he didn't agree to one. He said
he'd walk out in two minutes. He spent three hours
talking to Vladimir Putin.

Speaker 12 (25:06):
Then he did not get one.

Speaker 5 (25:09):
So there's obviously things happen during that meeting. Well, because
obviously things look Our goal here is not to stage
some production for the world to say, oh, how dramatic
he walked out. Our goal here is to have a
peace agreement to end this war. Okay, And obviously we
felt and I agreed, that there was enough progress, not
a lot of progress, but enough progress made in those
talks to allow us to move to the next phase.

(25:30):
If not, we wouldn't be having Zelensky flying all the
way over here. We wouldn't be having all the Europeans
coming all the way over here. Now understand and take
with a grain of salt. I'm not saying we're on
the verge of a peace deal, but I am saying
that we saw a movement, enough movement to justify a
follow up meeting with Zelinsky and the Europeans, enough movement
for us to dedicate even more time to this.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
You talk about the sanctions.

Speaker 5 (25:50):
Look, at the end of the day, if peace is
not going to be possible here and this is just
going to continue on as a war, people will continue
to die.

Speaker 2 (25:57):
By the thousands.

Speaker 5 (25:58):
The President has that option to then come in and
impose new sanctions. But if he did this now, the
moment the President puts those additional sanctions, that's the end
of the talks. You've basically locked in at least another
year to year and a half of war and death
and destruction. We may unfortunately wind up there, but we
don't want to wind up there. We want to wind
up with a peace deal that ends this war so
Ukraine can go on with the rest of their lives

(26:19):
and rebuild their country and be assured that this is
never going to happen again. That's the goal here. We're
going to do everything possible to make that happen. If
it's doable, it will require both sides to make concessions.
It will require both sides to get things they're asking for.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
That's how these deals are.

Speaker 4 (26:33):
I mean, Marco Rubio, this guy deserves a metal and
he's so bright, so articulate, So he goes to ABC
to get attacked by Martha Ratt. It's next.

Speaker 12 (26:45):
Critics of President Trump will say the pomp and circumstances,
pomp and circumstance, the red carpet, the warm handshake, the
President Trump simply lost that the putin game there just
by being on the world's and walking down a red
carpet with the president.

Speaker 4 (27:02):
Your reaction to.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
That, well, I mean, critics of President Trump are always going
to find something to criticize. You un't pay attention to
it anymore. But I will tell you this, Putin is
already on the world stage. He's already on the world stage.
The guy's conducting a full scale war in Ukraine.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
He's already on the world stage.

Speaker 5 (27:17):
He has the world's largest tactical nuclear arsenal in the
world and the second largest strategic nuclear arsenal in the world.
He's already on the world stage. When I hear people
say that it elevates him, well, all we do is
talk about Putin all the time. All the media has
done is talk about Putin all the time for the
last four or five years. That doesn't mean he's right
about the war. That doesn't mean he's justified about the war.
Put all that aside. It means you're not going to

(27:38):
have a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine. You're not
going to end a war between Russia and Ukraine without
dealing with Putin. That's just common sense.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
There is something about every time I see him shine
in the most challenging moments. That makes it difficult for
me to decide between him and JD. Vans. Then it's
odd to meet the press and Kristin Welker. I wonder
what Kristin has for him.

Speaker 5 (28:03):
He wants to promote the end of a war, and
I think we should be happy that we have a
president that's trying to promote peace and bring a war
to an end.

Speaker 13 (28:10):
Mister secretary, let's look at the state of the war.
It's really captured in this chart. I want to put
it up on the screen for our viewers. It shows
that Russian attacks on Ukraine have nearly doubled since President
Trump came into office, and in fact, in July Russia
launched more than six thousand missiles and drones. That's the
highest amount of attacks since.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
The war began.

Speaker 13 (28:30):
What do you say to Ukrainians who worry that without
a ceasefire in place, you are giving putin more leverage
at the negotiating table and a green light to drop
more bombs.

Speaker 5 (28:43):
Well, the problem with that is that we've been asking
for ceasefire for a long period of time. We think
usually it's very hard to negotiate when you're in the
middle of hostilities. But that said, the only way to
have a ceasefire is for both sides to agree to
stop firing at one another beyond and the Russians just
having a that Beyond that, I would say that one
of the complications about ceasefires is they have to be maintained,

(29:05):
which is very difficult.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
I mean, every single day we keep.

Speaker 5 (29:07):
An eye on what's happening between Pakistan and India, what's
happening between Cambodia and Thailand. Ceasefires can fall apout very quickly,
especially after a three and a half year war like
what we're facing now. But I don't think anyone disagrees
that the ideal here, what we're aiming for is not
some permanent ceasefire war. We're aiming for here is a
peace deal, so there's not a war now and there's
not a war in the future.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
This is what really it all boiled down to.

Speaker 13 (29:33):
Listen, and I understand that these negotiations are ongoing, but
can you name one thing that President Trump is asking
Russia to give up in order to get peace.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
Well, I'm not going to disclose those things because if
we do, then were you can imagine no negotiations could
fall apart these negotiations. Look, I know everybody wants to
know what's happening, and to a certain degree that's important.
But what's more important is that these negotiations work and
for us to run to the press.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
We see these leaks.

Speaker 5 (30:00):
Sometimes that are completely inaccurate, and in many cases sometimes
you see leaks out there that undermine the negotiations. Okay,
these negotiations, in order for them to be successful, allow
require for us to allow both sides to agree to
potential concessions or discuss potential concessions without it finding this
way in the public sphere and creating all kinds of
internal problems for one country or the other country. So

(30:23):
here's the bottom line. We all know what the elements
of such a deal. There has to be talk about
what the territories are going to look like and what
the borderlines are going to look like at the end
of this conflict. There has to be talk about Ukraine's
legitimate desire for security in the long term to make
sure they don't get invaded again. There has to be
talked about how Ukraine has rebuilt and how do you
rebuild a country that's been attacked as often as it

(30:45):
has over the last three and a half years. These
are all key elements of any agreement. We understand that,
and each side it's going to be a deal, each
side is going to have to give up on something
such a fact.

Speaker 13 (30:56):
Mister Sector, want to show folks what Ukraine looks like
right now. This is a map of Ukraine. That red
section there, that's the area currently under control by Russia.
It's about twenty percent of the entire country. There are
reports that Putin is asking to keep all of this
territory and a potential deal. Is that what's being discussed?

Speaker 4 (31:18):
Can you confirm that it just goes on and on
and nothing. Here's the bottom line. I think there's a
greater chance at this moment of a ceasefire between Russia
and Ukraine than with the media the Trump administration. I
think there's a better chance for lasting peace between Russia

(31:39):
and Ukraine than there is between this antagonistic, obstructionist media
with any other worldview or policy view other than their own,
which is shared by the left whose back pocket they're in.
And this weekend was no exception. I mean, I try

(32:00):
to make and then everywhere. If you're Donald Trump, You've
got to be thinking, wait, a minute, And where were
they in twenty fourteen when CRIMEA was just handed to
the Russians with just a few sanctions and a statement
of condemnation. Where was this?

thirty miles from Grand to Turk Island, with the top

a major hurricane, which is likely to bring life threatening
surf and rip currents to the East coastduring the week.

A Mark Miefield, The Justice Department is backing off plans
to take over the DC police force.

Speaker 14 (33:05):

Chief Terry Cole as emergency police chief instead. Metro Police
Chief Panela Smith will stay in charge under Mayor Muriel Bowser.
The DOJ has also directed Bowser to have police assist

number of Gosins to travel to the US for medical
