00:00:33.679 --> 00:00:35.560
and it's more like a state of the dominant talking

12
00:00:35.560 --> 00:00:37.600
about last night. I was my America doing so far.

00:00:37.799 --> 00:00:40.520

16
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:49.039
to do. It's like the world's most just throw out

17
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:51.560
documentary on cheese made most likely to be in a

00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:57.240
Wonders and Rolodex house speaker stars named invited contact. In January,

19
00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:00.280
Alec Baldwin writing that I always Campbell Distiny driving and

20
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.719
then great privilege him will everyone in Americ their minds.

21
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.280
The d o J clarified Condel Johnson's doesn't meaning an

22
00:01:07.319 --> 00:01:09.480
excitement as he wrote that letter. It just means Epstein

had your mister President, I'm your legs band is still

24
00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:14.799

25
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:19.120
name is in theially that dress. Nobody like because Trump

26
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:22.560
just gotta let me get my number of the charity

27
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:26.599
is in thousands from time to time. Give also information

28
00:01:26.760 --> 00:01:28.760
of the state of the You aren't even reported over

29
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.000
the years, literally what it says, So this isn't exact

30
00:01:31.040 --> 00:01:33.799
time to the news. It's more like the founding Father's news.

31
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:37.879
We're actually confirming Yeah, whenever you get was mentioned, how

32
00:01:38.280 --> 00:01:41.760
are going no rush? Her team immediately reputed started with

33
00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:44.239
never mestion Jeffrey and John Adams, nor was she ever

34
00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:46.400
in the same Jacers and was like, no, she's just

35
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:49.959
gonna write what I would say to Sky the spell

36
00:01:50.000 --> 00:01:51.879
of American has never met the guy. I'll just send

37
00:01:51.920 --> 00:01:54.840
an email Attorney General, get all this release. Part of

38
00:01:54.920 --> 00:01:57.359
the practice of moving to trans came back with Woodrow

39
00:01:57.359 --> 00:02:00.560
Wilson and the director. Since then, most president could up

40
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:04.159
not missing documents, not de sadly a State of the speeches,

41
00:02:04.280 --> 00:02:06.640
we will find them. Reagan called his the address ever

42
00:02:06.840 --> 00:02:10.039
Joint Session of the Congress on the program of economic partcoveries,

43
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.719
specifically tylers you put behalf of America. The Epstein died

44
00:02:13.759 --> 00:02:16.599
in prison back twenty nineteen while awaiting trial on sex

45
00:02:16.680 --> 00:02:20.280
trafferent and what officials called the American Presidency Project says,

46
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:23.120
but what's not appearances it is why totally five years

47
00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:25.680
traumatic robots, a State of the Union mess, the moral

48
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:29.479
of the story, probably very careful that has separate presidentials

49
00:02:29.479 --> 00:02:31.319
and maybe has changed your number every few years.

50
00:02:31.400 --> 00:02:33.240
Remember you're not watching a State of the Union. You

51
00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:33.719
never know.

52
00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:36.520
Watching a guide document six week makes you have to

53
00:02:36.520 --> 00:02:39.000
tell everyone great branding is going on, why you're trending

54
00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:42.159
on Twitter. It's basically like when someone's president announced and

55
00:02:42.240 --> 00:02:45.120
will make up English about initial language of America. That's right,

56
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:48.680
I've lost sign hound and I feel amazing. Agencies can

57
00:02:48.759 --> 00:02:51.879
now check whether they want to offer documents languages twenty

58
00:02:51.919 --> 00:02:54.479
twenty State of the Union as any basically or if

59
00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:56.719
you do what experts call a good lead in figuring

60
00:02:56.759 --> 00:02:59.400
out your tax forms. Nancy Pelosi can give as well.

61
00:02:59.439 --> 00:03:01.639
Crats to wo my there about like having no idea

62
00:03:01.680 --> 00:03:03.680
what you're signing. Let him stew in his own house,

63
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:05.759
claims this man's right from the woman who went and

64
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:08.120
ripped us establish as a union of government. If was

65
00:03:08.120 --> 00:03:11.639
a young man creates telling everyone to play it cool. Yes,

66
00:03:12.360 --> 00:03:15.159
and United Members like not being able to understroy Sundy

67
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:17.080
chuge back in government efficiency.

68
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.360
She said into the d n B. Lightly here on

69
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:22.599
they could be speaking, cling on every heard and then

70
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:23.599
advocacy groups.

71
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.759
When I saw them, every pessicus from America's I hadn't

72
00:03:26.800 --> 00:03:29.120
fear it up. An offensive gesture aparently takes a harm

73
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:31.639
in the eye ards of US citizens who sweech makes

74
00:03:31.879 --> 00:03:35.719
sound like she's been described roying documents, sticking the Declaration

75
00:03:35.800 --> 00:03:37.439
of independent foreign policy approach.

76
00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.199
Now, Pelosi will be at least than the shifty.

77
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:43.520
Languages are regular the unitedse woman, but don't most common

78
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.039
after English, Spanish, Chinese to Gollog, she's been telling young

79
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:49.360
Democrats not to make themselves. We also have a native

80
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:53.639
American languages like Navajo. Any demonstration of disagreement, just try

81
00:03:54.240 --> 00:03:56.599
his own juice. Sorry, we're going English only.

82
00:03:56.719 --> 00:04:00.280
This comes from the speech the cure of us them.

83
00:04:00.639 --> 00:04:03.599
Pelosi thinks democrat irony is on Trump's enough that could

84
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:04.919
read on toe care programs.

85
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:07.960
Annabel Mendoza going this will.

86
00:04:07.800 --> 00:04:10.879
Make it say about pica is about taking medical Annabel

87
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:14.599
away from more childeringly the middle income seniors currently people

88
00:04:14.719 --> 00:04:18.759
with disabilage and residency requirement other qualified for Here's what

89
00:04:18.879 --> 00:04:21.040
she expects to be a lot of language and then not.

90
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:23.319
Now they have to take a test in a language

91
00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:26.759
character development speak fluently at four years old the same

92
00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:30.639
way making basketball players were bowdery and uses a walking stick. Meanwhile,

93
00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:35.560
Congretional Hispanic chocolate right into the lord of national Spanish

94
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:39.519
language response to Trump's upcoming joint to demonstrate political I'm

95
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:41.920
guessing Trump's how the household.

96
00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:42.839
Sorry, I don't understand.

97
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:45.240
She thinks Englishman is similar to two thousand and five

98
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:50.959
more Democrats official adanitized social Security Hawaii is strategy back

99
00:04:51.000 --> 00:04:53.800
then two official language times. Someone as about the Democrat

100
00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:57.000
alternative she does one hundred seventy countries worldwide have an

101
00:04:57.000 --> 00:05:00.439
official language. Words can when your significant others what you

102
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:02.120
want for to ensure and you just keep her beating

103
00:05:02.160 --> 00:05:05.040
at PISA until they give linguistic minority big advice to

104
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:11.000
the French and not become day to day chaos Mexico.

105
00:05:11.120 --> 00:05:13.759
It's doesn't have a year language two years. It's between

106
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:15.959
March and September of your planning to visit America.

107
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:18.160
Soon you might want to found on your coach in

108
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:18.839
the third court.

109
00:05:18.879 --> 00:05:21.600
He's learned these essential phrase even while telling everyone to

110
00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:24.439
keep their cool. How he couldn't cost throw one last

111
00:05:24.800 --> 00:05:28.160
someone from translates this government form. He was frivolous that

112
00:05:28.279 --> 00:05:32.000
day he came, he dishonored the house, which is Pelosi

113
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:34.199
speak for that guy was a total jerk.

114
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:35.959
So there you have it.

115
00:05:36.360 --> 00:05:39.399
Nancy Pelosi, one of the great stock pickers of all time,

116
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:42.720
is now the voice of restraint. It's like having your

117
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.399
wild college roommates suddenly become a librarian.

118
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:47.160
People change.

119
00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:51.759
I guess Democrats have chosen Michigan Senator Alyssa Slopkin to

120
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:55.519
deliver their rebuttal to President Trump's address to Congress because

121
00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:59.319
nothing says we're connecting with regular Americans like having a

122
00:05:59.439 --> 00:06:02.439
former IA analyst tell you what's wrong with the country.

123
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:05.600
Slotkin is supposedly.

124
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:07.839
The perfect choice because she's a swing state moderate with

125
00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:12.879
extensive national security experience. Translation she can talk about kitchen

126
00:06:12.920 --> 00:06:15.600
table issues while also knowing sixteen ways to kill you

127
00:06:15.720 --> 00:06:19.079
with that kitchen table. Democrats are hoping Slatkin will help

128
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.519
rehabilitate their public image. You know your parties in trouble

129
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.319
when you need rehabilitation less than three months after losing

130
00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:29.920
an election. That's like needing rehab after your first drink.

131
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.360
The forty eight year old Senator one in Michigan, even

132
00:06:33.439 --> 00:06:36.279
as Trump carried the state, which Democrats are taking as

133
00:06:36.360 --> 00:06:39.519
proof that their message can work if they just focus

134
00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:43.720
on lowering the costs. Still demanding Apparently that's a revolution

135
00:06:44.000 --> 00:06:47.560
just by their existence now weekly hey, because nothing says

136
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:51.279
voters should have maybe two million people bullet points about

137
00:06:51.279 --> 00:06:55.240
their jobs, bullshows Americans pursuing theirs on the economy, immigration,

138
00:06:55.920 --> 00:06:58.639
Around two of the Democrats wanted women's rights. The Envin

139
00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:02.079
mails calling it up batically. Republicans will call sick and

140
00:07:02.160 --> 00:07:05.560
then ploys with doctor demon extra recycled. Why guessing must

141
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:07.920
joying if the federal government still has a heartbeat after

142
00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:10.800
he Sailcrafts are struggling to strike the right tone against Trump.

143
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:13.800
Nass a lot of husting. Administrator shanding of told her

144
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:18.439
status emails. Do they go with billionaires battles? Give yourself

145
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:20.879
a moment billionaire when you're back on that check with

146
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:24.000
your supervised stakes are high. Is the Democrats are weaknesses

147
00:07:24.199 --> 00:07:25.480
working class voters, but I.

148
00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:26.959
Know what session about it.

149
00:07:27.759 --> 00:07:30.399
Then stay for twenty one months of note why Peter

150
00:07:30.600 --> 00:07:34.360
nothing living? Don't trust them, which coincidentally cras exactly what

151
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:36.680
I need mails from my mother in a while about

152
00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:37.079
what counts.

153
00:07:37.199 --> 00:07:39.120
I just argue that failing to renew.

154
00:07:40.480 --> 00:07:43.839
Met to eight million in degrees, spend fifteen minutes and

155
00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.839
the emails not given everyone with thirty five and getting

156
00:07:47.079 --> 00:07:49.720
the same as it would do them. Xers seventeen millions

157
00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:53.639
like three thousand dollars our twee dollars Tuesday sessions some

158
00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:56.639
millions dollars in years. Defend sends on Wednesday emails to

159
00:07:56.680 --> 00:08:00.920
Elon Musk one Democratic contend Rick just shove a thousand

160
00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:04.240
phone calls dinass eighteen thousand emails in February alone. At

161
00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:07.680
the Defense cir constituents four star generals are posting about budgets,

162
00:08:07.759 --> 00:08:10.120
ability and how they trim their govern You know things

163
00:08:10.120 --> 00:08:12.519
are bad when people whose entire rear is based on

164
00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:15.639
following who saying asking can we discuss thing for real?

165
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:19.600
Or an elaborate Department of Education offered employees twenty five thousand.

166
00:08:19.680 --> 00:08:23.800
Democratic members of the Dennigan avoid President Trump's first striking

167
00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.680
games dress of his second firm forty eight hours take

168
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:28.600
the money and says, when are you wired anyway?

169
00:08:28.600 --> 00:08:30.920
Democratic? Do you choose like an empty chair?

170
00:08:31.079 --> 00:08:33.320
This whole situation is like when you get a new

171
00:08:33.399 --> 00:08:36.679
manager skipping this who decides to hold him as miling

172
00:08:36.759 --> 00:08:37.679
out on enough forms.

173
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:42.399
That's right, premises failing to evening every fifteen.

174
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:45.679
Next week he'll be reviewing mortions of today's show made

175
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.200
with the help of AI. Murphy told gen Tonics, I

176
00:08:48.279 --> 00:08:50.080
think that State of the Union speech is going to

177
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:54.360
be a farce. Well, Senator, with that attitude, the only

178
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:57.759
farce I'm seeing is your commitment to governance. He added,

179
00:08:58.279 --> 00:09:00.679
I think Donald Trump is going to a series of

180
00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:03.879
lies about his alignment with Russia, about what he's trying

181
00:09:03.960 --> 00:09:06.960
to do to allow Elon Musk to essentially monetize the

182
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:11.360
American government. So Murphy is boycotting a speech because of

183
00:09:11.440 --> 00:09:11.679
what he.

184
00:09:11.720 --> 00:09:12.480
Thinks might be in it.

185
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.440
That's like returning a birthday present before you've opened it.

186
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.519
Democratic Senator Brian Shatz of Hawaii will join Murphy for

187
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:24.399
their little counter programming event. I'm sure dozens of people

188
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:28.840
will tune in embark on an extraordinary journey into the

189
00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:32.080
heart of one of the world's most ancient and mysterious institutions.

190
00:09:32.120 --> 00:09:37.399
With White Smoke, The Path to a New Pope, This captivating.

191
00:09:36.879 --> 00:09:39.559
Podcast series takes listeners behind the scenes of the Catholic

192
00:09:39.639 --> 00:09:42.960
Church's most solemn and consequential event, the passing of a

193
00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:46.559
pope and the selection of his successor. From the moment

194
00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:49.360
the silver hammer strikes the Pope's forehead three times to

195
00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:51.720
confirm his death, to the burning of his papal ring,

196
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:56.240
White Smoke unveils the intricate rituals and closely guarded traditions

197
00:09:56.279 --> 00:10:00.480
that mark this sacred transition. Listeners will gain unprecedented insight

198
00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:03.519
into the secret conversations and centuries old customs that guide

199
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:05.600
the Cardinals in their selection of the next leader of

200
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:09.600
the world's one billion Catholics. Whether you are a devout Catholic,

201
00:10:09.879 --> 00:10:12.919
a student of history, or simply fascinated by the workings

202
00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:16.440
of one of the world's most enduring institutions, White Smoke

203
00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.080
is an immersive and illuminating journey that will leave you

204
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:21.919
with a new found appreciation for the timeless traditions and

205
00:10:22.200 --> 00:10:26.399
profound mysteries of the Catholic Church, white smoke, wherever you

206
00:10:26.519 --> 00:10:39.480
get your shows. President Trump's tariff tornado is about to

207
00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:42.519
make landfall, and your wallet better find a storm shelter.

208
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:46.120
A new report from Anderson Economic Group says Americans are

209
00:10:46.159 --> 00:10:47.480
about to get sticker shocked.

210
00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:49.919
That'll make your eyes pop out like a cartoon character.

211
00:10:50.919 --> 00:10:54.279
These tariffs on Mexican and Canadian imports aren't just coming,

212
00:10:54.840 --> 00:10:57.639
they're speeding toward us like a bull who just spotted

213
00:10:57.720 --> 00:11:02.440
someone wearing red in a China shop. EV crossovers, brace

214
00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:06.480
yourselves for price hikes of over twelve thousand dollars. That's

215
00:11:06.639 --> 00:11:10.879
not a typo, that's economic policy. You know what's hilarious

216
00:11:10.919 --> 00:11:14.360
about these tariffs. They don't just hit the finished cars

217
00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:17.799
coming across the border. Those parts go back and forth

218
00:11:17.919 --> 00:11:20.679
more times than a tennis ball at Wimbledon, getting slapped

219
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:24.320
with a tariff each time. It's like paying a toll

220
00:11:24.519 --> 00:11:27.960
every time you change lanes on the highway. Your standard

221
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:31.919
gas guzzling crossover add thirty five hundred dollars to the

222
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:36.440
sticker price. Pickup trucks, you know those vehicles actual working

223
00:11:36.480 --> 00:11:39.360
Americans drive eight thousand dollars more expensive.

224
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:40.519
I'm not making this up.

225
00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:44.559
Full size SUVs will cost nine thousand dollars more, and

226
00:11:44.759 --> 00:11:47.759
even those tiny clown cars will jump sixty two hundred dollars.

227
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:49.440
And here's the kicker.

228
00:11:49.919 --> 00:11:53.440
This report doesn't even factor in Trump's steel and aluminum tariffs.

229
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:57.840
That's like calculating the cost of flooding damage without including

230
00:11:57.919 --> 00:12:01.759
the water. All this comes as the average new vehicle

231
00:12:01.840 --> 00:12:05.200
already costs forty seven thousand, four hundred and sixty five dollars.

232
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:08.879
Nearly one in five car buyers are already paying over

233
00:12:09.000 --> 00:12:12.320
one thousand dollars monthly for their cars. At this rate,

234
00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:15.159
your car payment will soon cost more than your mortgage.

235
00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:19.039
President Trump is scheduled to address Congress on Tuesday night.

236
00:12:20.000 --> 00:12:22.480
Maybe he'll explain why he thinks Americans should pay more

237
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:25.080
for cars while inflation is already running hotter than a

238
00:12:25.159 --> 00:12:29.759
jalapeno in a microwave. Last week, executives from GM Ford

239
00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:32.360
and Stilantis had a meeting with the Commerce Department that

240
00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:35.879
I imagine when something like this, Please don't do this,

241
00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:39.679
We're begging you. Ford CEO Jim Farley has been complaining

242
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:42.720
that companies like Hyundai and Kia won't face new tariffs

243
00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:46.360
because they build many vehicles in Korea. He said, what

244
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:48.799
doesn't make sense to me is why we're having this

245
00:12:48.879 --> 00:12:52.519
conversation while Hyundai Kia is importing six hundred thousand units

246
00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:56.440
into the US with no incremental tariff. I don't know, Jim,

247
00:12:56.480 --> 00:12:59.559
And maybe because making sense stopped being a requirement for

248
00:12:59.600 --> 00:13:03.000
econom policy around the same time we decided inflation wasn't

249
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:03.919
a problem anymore.

250
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:06.080
Well.

251
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:09.200
President Trump is absolutely fuming over Ukrainian President Zelenski's apparent

252
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:11.159
lack of gratitude and what I can only describe as

253
00:13:11.159 --> 00:13:13.679
a presidential tempertanderom. In the Roosevelt Room, Trump told reporters,

254
00:13:14.120 --> 00:13:16.480
I just think you should be more appreciative because this

255
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.639
country has stuck with them through thick and thin, thick

256
00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:23.000
and thin. It sounds like Trump is describing his relationship

257
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:26.200
with Ukraine the way most people describe their marriage vows

258
00:13:27.360 --> 00:13:30.639
for richer or poorer in sickness and in health, until

259
00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:33.919
I get tired of sending you weapons. The President is

260
00:13:33.960 --> 00:13:36.960
particularly upset that Zelensky had the audacity to suggest that

261
00:13:37.080 --> 00:13:39.399
the end of the war with Russia is still very

262
00:13:39.679 --> 00:13:43.720
very far away. Trump immediately took to truth Social, his

263
00:13:43.919 --> 00:13:48.000
favorite digital megaphone, to air his grievances. This is the

264
00:13:48.159 --> 00:13:50.679
worst statement that could have been made by Zelenski, and

265
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:53.039
America will not put up with it for much longer.

266
00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:57.600
The worst statement, really, I can think of much worse statements,

267
00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:01.240
like I've decided to rename you Ukraine to putin Land,

268
00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:05.320
or I've started collecting Russian nesting dolls as a hobby.

269
00:14:06.320 --> 00:14:09.600
Trump continued his rant by writing, this guy doesn't want

270
00:14:09.639 --> 00:14:11.480
there to be peace as long as he has America's

271
00:14:11.519 --> 00:14:14.960
backing yes, because nothing says I love war like having

272
00:14:15.000 --> 00:14:17.600
your Citi's bombed, infrastructure destroyed and citizens killed.

273
00:14:17.960 --> 00:14:19.240
Who wouldn't want that to continue?

274
00:14:19.720 --> 00:14:22.080
In an incredible coincidence that I'm sure is totally random

275
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:25.240
and not at all concerning, Kremlin spokesperson Dmitri Peskov said

276
00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:28.600
almost exactly the same thing. Someone must force Zelenski to

277
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:32.399
change his position. Someone must make Zelenski want peace. Great

278
00:14:32.440 --> 00:14:34.639
minds think alike, I guess, or maybe there's a shared

279
00:14:34.679 --> 00:14:39.799
Google doc somewhere. Meanwhile, America's traditional allies Britain, France and

280
00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.919
Canada met with Zelenski in London without inviting Trump. That's

281
00:14:44.000 --> 00:14:45.960
like when all your friends have a party and conveniently

282
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:49.120
forget to send you an invitation. Now, the White House

283
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:52.000
is demanding a public apology from Zelenski before they resume

284
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:55.320
talks on a mineral deal. Behind closed doors, Trump officials

285
00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:57.679
are considering how to get both Russia and Ukraine to

286
00:14:57.759 --> 00:14:59.519
agree to a cease fire, which is a bit like

287
00:14:59.559 --> 00:15:01.159
trying to get a cat and dog to agree on

288
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:02.720
who gets the comfy spot on the couch.

289
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:04.639
When asked if he might halt.

290
00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:07.320
American aid to Ukraine, Trump gave his classic non answer,

291
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.960
We'll see what happens. That's the presidential equivalent of your

292
00:15:11.039 --> 00:15:13.120
dad saying we'll think about it when you ask for

293
00:15:13.159 --> 00:15:13.559
a puppy.

294
00:15:14.480 --> 00:15:16.440
This has been Patrick Gutfield wondering.

295
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.320
If I should buy that new truck now or wait

296
00:15:18.399 --> 00:15:21.279
until I can trade my house for it instead. Portions

297
00:15:21.320 --> 00:15:23.039
of today's show were made with the help of Ai
