we just had to talk about it because our bosses told us to. Not one person. I've never heard anybody say that.

Here's what I believe. I believe they believed every bit of it. I believe they were just fooled, and they don't want to say we were fooled. And I believe that they would say, given what information was available, we reported on it responsibly because the information that was available did suggest there might be some Russia collusion. And we were hearing people like Adam Schiff say, I saw secret information and it's definitely true based on the secret information I saw that you can't see. So they might say, you know, it turned out not to be true, but everything we reported on was based on something in the news. If Schiff says something, we reported it. Can't blame us. We just reported what a prominent politician said.

I think that the left can't process this. I think they can't process how many times they've been wrong. But likewise, I don't think the right can process George Soros. So it works both ways. It's not like the left has some unusual situation going on. But I'll tell you one difference I do see. When the people on the right, let's say conservatives and Republicans, when the conservatives and Republicans are dead wrong about something, there it has a similar nature, which is they looked at the available information and they came to a wrong conclusion. Now, I'm not the judge of what's right or wrong. I'm not putting like a god-like judgment. I know what is right or wrong. I'm saying sort of generally, you know, if hypothetically people on the right are wrong about something, it's because they looked at the data and then they interpreted it incorrectly.

That's not what happens on the left. On the left, when they believe something that's not true, it's because the left made it up. They literally made it up, and then the left believed it. So somebody on the left is making up complete lies that their own side believes. And then when they're wrong, they have only themselves to blame, or at least their own side, right? Doesn't that look different? I'm trying to think. Do I have selective memory? So I probably do. So give me a fact check on my selective memory. When was the last time the right, the political right, made up an entire fake story that wasn't based on stuff that's in the news that they're just misinterpreting?

Iraq? No, they didn't make up that story. They fell for that story. The weapons of mass destruction was somebody else's lie. It was the Iraqis who wanted the war to happen. It was somebody else's lie that they believed. So that's the kind of lie. That's the kind of disinformation. Pizza gate. Let's think about pizza gate. So pizza gate was a not true thing, but wouldn't you say that... but was it made up to fool? Maybe that's a good example. Maybe that's a better example than that. I thought. Yeah, yeah, I think pizza gate was probably an example of something that was totally made up that Republicans believed.

Saddam did use weapons of mass destruction. Yeah, used some gas. Let's say Gulf of Tonkin. Well, I don't call that recent. Kraken. But the Kraken was something that I think Sidney Powell believed. I think the Kraken came from the Democrats actually. I think that was actually another Democrat hoax. I don't know. But until we hear how Sidney Powell first heard of this Venezuelan general situation, I just think that came from an intel source and I think it was a fake move, a hoax.

All right. Well, let's talk about the Ukrainian situation. So again, everything that we learn about Ukraine and Russia is probably wrong. Yeah, where's Bob? Where's the Carl Bernstein "worse than Watergate" guy? We finally get something that's just unambiguously way worse than Watergate. You know, the Russian collusion. And the "worse than Watergate" guys just go on. Wouldn't you agree that assuming the Durham report is accurate, that if the Democrats buy into the Durham report's details that on any level this is worse than Watergate? Like not even close. Wouldn't you agree this is not even close? Watergate was like a petty crime compared to this. This is coup material.

All right. Yeah, I do wonder about that whole deep throat situation. Yeah, there's something about that that we don't know. I don't think the Watergate situation we actually know the real story. What do you think? I don't think we know the real story.

All right, let's talk about Ukraine. So Ukraine now has our Patriot missile defense and a few other countries giving them air defense. And apparently now, this is the unreliable reporting so you don't have to tell me it might be complete... you don't have to tell me, I get it. All right, but apparently Ukraine's air defenses are unusually strong. So Russia is sending all kinds of missiles in, and reportedly, if you want to believe this, Ukraine is shooting almost all of them down. And so some experts are saying that this is the real war and that if Russia runs out of missiles before Ukraine runs out of anti-missile, that that determines the war. Because if either one of them ran out, you know, whoever runs out first... if Ukraine runs out of its anti-missile defense, then Russia can just take its time and pick off all the assets and interrupt in Ukraine until they have to give up, however long it takes. But if it goes the other way and Russia runs out of missiles because they're sending big waves of them over, and one of the hints, and I don't believe this is good evidence, but one of the hints one of the experts said is that some of the missiles, or at least one of them, was recently made. And the thinking was if Russia has fired a recently made missile, it means they've already run out of the ones that they had in stockpile and that the only missiles they'll have in the future are ones that are literally coming off the assembly line right now.

Now, if that's the only missiles that they have, like really soon the only ones they have are the new ones coming off the line, it's just not going to be enough. And then Ukraine will just pick off their Russian assets behind their line as long as they want because the U.S. probably will, or UK, and it'll probably be able to get missiles more reliably than Russia can make them, right? So that could determine the answer. But I'm still going to go back to my interpretation that once Trump said that when he's in office he's going to end the war in one day, true or not, that turned it into a negotiation. And none of this stuff matters toward the outcome. That it won't matter whose... how many missiles. Just none of it's going to matter. All that matters is that they're going to fight hard until the American president changes, and then they'll have to work it out. So you don't even have to wonder how the war will go at this point. All the mystery of the war is removed. It's just details at this point.

So every single person who dies from this moment on in Ukraine and Russia, completely unnecessary, for no benefit whatsoever. And by the way, that would be a pretty strong propaganda message. Tell the Russian people, here's the deal. This war is over when the presidency changes. I mean, it could be DeSantis, but it's going to be the same outcome. The war will be over when the president changes. Every person who dies between now and then was a complete waste, a waste of human life. They can't gain anything. There's nothing to win, and it's not going to change. So maybe you could talk them into negotiating now.

There's also this little subplot of Prigozhin and the Wagner group and Putin, and I think we really don't understand that. So it's either that Prigozhin and Putin get along so well that Prigozhin could be more critical of the Russian military than another person could. So it could be that everything that we're seeing is because they get along really well. It would be the opposite of what it looks like. So that's possible. You know, there's no way we know what's really going on there. The other possibility is that Prigozhin wants Putin's job and he sees this as a way to get it by embarrassing Putin for how the regular military went while the Wagner group does heroic things, or at least he can make it look that way.

So I don't know. I do think that Putin has to get rid of Prigozhin or it will work the other way. I feel like Prigozhin can't be alive in a year. What do you think? Now, the other interesting thing is, as prominent as Prigozhin seems to be, do you think we don't know where he is all the time? What do you think? I feel like with America's help, Ukraine should know exactly where Prigozhin is, like within 20 feet all the time. Which tells me they could kill him anytime they want. Am I wrong about that? Or are they so good at secretly moving around in nondescript cars with not much of an entourage? So I'm saying yes, I'm wrong. That he would obviously know that was a risk, so they would do everything they could to not let him get out of the car except for a quick video hit and then rushing back into a car and back to a secret place. I mean, obviously they're going to do that. But I don't think it would work. I don't think that with today's technology they could keep the leader of that war... it would be too many... there would be too much movement around wherever he was. There's got to be some assets that travel with him, right? There's no way he drives places with two cars. I don't think in a war zone. Do you think he goes someplace just with one or two cars? I would think that everywhere there's a certain type of vehicles.

All right. Well, we'll see. I just have a feeling that America is, you know, because America has a lot of control over there, I feel like we're keeping Prigozhin alive intentionally because we seem to be pretty good at taking out Soleimani, pretty good at taking out those ISIS leaders whenever we want. I feel like we could take it. Now it must be a choice. Yeah, he's criticizing Putin. I also saw a report that the CIA has opened up channels with Russian government people who want to be spies for us because they don't like the war. So the CIA is definitely trying to take Putin out and change the regime in Russia. Are you okay with that?

I feel like this is yet another one of those stories that 20 years from now we'll hear the real story of how it was all the CIA effort to take out Putin. And because 20 years have passed, we won't be that mad about it. Like the way we're currently not mad even though w
