Trump Betrays Ukraine - What is America Doing?
Added 2025-03-09 18:25:05 +0000 UTCAfter that disgraceful display in the White House, I couldn't stay silent any longer. Three years on from when I first offered my thoughts on the situation, in this very personal and raw episode, I cover the multilayered implications of the current crisis. What is Trump playing at? Is this new turn in American foreign policy going to fix anything, or is it merely emboldening Russia, weakening Ukraine, and making everyone less safe? You can probably predict where I stand, but if you feel like you're losing your mind right now, I hope you can some catharsis from this extended rant.

If only there were more hours in the day! It is certainly on my to do list to eventually have a separate podcast for these types of episodes, complete with a proper weekly schedule and explainer episodes - how does the EU work, for example - but this would be in the future, once I'm able to clone myself!

As an American living in the Southwest, it was so refreshing to hear the perspective of someone from the E.U. With two or more salient points to rub together. In depth breakdowns (in your inimitable style) of anything from Reagn/Gorbachev in the 1980s, Lech Walesa and Poland's struggles, the last 40 years in North Korean Dictatorship-all need your in-depth analysis and explanations. Just some food for thought. Thank you for the excellent longform content.
