Speaker 1

Whoson media. See, this is why you can't borrow money from people hood politics. Y'all. Oh man, we're gonna have to push the episode on the USAID to next week because boy, the tea got spilled. My man. Vladimir Zelensky was like, I got time today. We gotta talk about this just messy, Like y'all. I tried to tell y'all

po tixas gay Baggott, like this is so good. I'm referring to this meeting that happened last week with Vladimir z Lensky and Trump and jd Vance about continuing to get aid or from America for the Russia Ukraine war, but to really understand how Vladimir Zelensky was like, you're gonna stop playing in my face? I like, excuse me, uh, stop playing with me? And why Trump was like, my dude, I don't think you got a leg to stand on. I feel like you should just shut the fuck up

and say thank you. We need to walk through how both of these things happen. Now. Listen, Obviously I have an opinion and aside that I would personally take, but you know how to show go. I just want you to understand what just happened. As the principal the guiding focus of this show remains, if you from the you kind of already do. Let's get to it. But before we do, but look, it's like this bull look is

like this bull look is like this. So look, the opm VIA do send out these letters, these emails to the remaining government workers who didn't take the little furlough joint and was like, hey, what did you do for the past five days? Now I don't know what job you do, but I already know that's a hard question to answer it no matter what, Like I worked on

a project, I responded to emails. I was in seventy five stupid meetings because all y'all want to do is meet you know, listen, most reports that you hear about how working for a corporation is. That's not just like manual labor is. Most of your time is in meetings, Like I'll ever actually get to do the stuff, and usually you got to do the stuff on off time hours because you got me in meetings all the dog one day, Good lord, how excellent. But that's what was out.

They were like, Yo, tell me what y'all been doing. And then they actual boss was like, you know, you really don't have to answer that, but if you do answer it, that'd be dope. But if you don't answer it, you might lose your job. But you really ain't got to answer that because he really can't fire you. What I don't under what do you? What do you want me to do? Listen? Listen, listen, listen, listen. Let me tell you what almost ended my own marriage is unclear expectations. Listen.

You got to be clear as to what the hell you want and need? What are your needs? Fam I would you like would it's so? Answer it? That don't answer it, fired, might not get fired. And at the end of the day, everybody's sitting around the government looking at Elon like, nigga, you don't even go here. You the dude at the college campus chilling in the rec room on campus. Ain't got no classes. Nigga, you don't go here. You telling us all how to manage our

time and do our homework. You're not even a student here, Like why are you? Why are you here? So answer it? That don't answer, I don't know. In other news, the pope dying Bruh's sick Bruh is on a breathing machine, like we about to live another conclave and that's crazy. Now, however you feel about this pope in terms of popeness,

he's kind of reminiscent to the sixties popes. We were a little more progressive, which you know, that's a big old relative transitive verb here, meaning you know, like conservative transitive verb, like you know you're conserving what in relation to what? So? I mean, he was, you know, he was fins to say he cool with the gays. Maybe maybe, just maybe maybe this idea of celibate popes or celibate priests,

maybe maybe we maybe maybe we should rethink this. Maybe humans are sexual beings and us telling them that they can't ever due the nasty uh might be leading to some of the issues I'm saying. He a little progressive either way. Thoughts and prayers to the to the A one to the A one Catholic. Yo, it's not funny. It's just funny to call him the A one Catholic. That's what That's what I'm joking about. But it's not as if, like the death of Queen Elizabeth was it

was kind of funny? Should I continue that? Trainer thought I shouldn't continue that training thought oscars they happened, and this is one of the first year is that I feel like I've seen a handful of the flicks, like I saw Substance, which I was like, hell of a movie.

I wish I would have seen that Palestinian doc about life in Palestine, that one, but you know, they didn't want to distribute that in the States, as if we don't already know what's going Like y'all these people crack me up in the worst way, like we don't know, like we don't already see what's happening in there. The internet exists, let us see the flick. I mean, i'mn't even understand why you're not even financially driven to be like the people want to see it anyway, what do

I know? Also, happy uh Aztech New Year. We went down to Salazar Park right there in East Lost Too, right there right there in East low Softhwetier to celebrate Aztech New Year. I bought a bunch of jewelry and I got the coppol incense burning back there smelling real, uh real, Nilwaukie is selling smelling real to note ted line out there is mug and uh yeah, man, another new year, another do over. So shout out to y'all who celebrate. And finally, the ceasefire in Israel is not

so ceasing as predicted by everyone. Israel is stalling out this last phase of the first phase of the ceasefire because the next phase would be making it permanent, and they're not really trying to do that because of reasons

we already know. It is my hope and dream one day to live in a presented times and not live in unprecedented times to where we are watching literally history repeating itself, watching World War two be slow walked into just a new version of it, a reversal of the Cold War in that how America's on Russia side, which is just the most bizarre what the hell? And we're watching in front of us and genocidal ethnic cleansing that

we're just kind of like watching. And I hope that this puts in perspective how history was in the sense that like we all look at history and think it's flat and that like everybody was on board with everything that was happening, But no, there were people that fought tooth and nail, whether it was chattel slavery, you know, Transatlantic slave trade, whether it was you know, European expansion. Everybody wasn't on board, you know, whether it was understanding

Nazi Germany, like, everybody wasn't on board. People fought hard, the empires, the Empire, you know it, the Empire. Empires are going empire. It'd be super dope. It'd be cool if we like lived in a time we're just like I don't know, you you you did what was on the paper, Like if you just said, it'd be cool if like, I don't know, you know, human rights were just kind of honored, that'd be whenever dope. But no,

this is not the time we're in anyway. Let's talk about America and Donald Trump being the worst big homies on Earth. Let's go like this, all right, So I want to run this episode in terms of like the background, the build up, the setup, the expectation, and the crash out. That's how we're gonna run this show. As far as what is happening between America and Ukraine. Now, these moments

do not need much explanation. Again, if you grew up in the Inner City for a number of reasons, one of which is you already know the person that's gonna always try to big brow you like you can't ever ask them for no favor. And oftentimes what sucks about it is they be kind of right. They be right about a lot of stuff. I'm getting ahead of myself, but this, hopefully, this is one of the clip things

to where like, here's the thing. Trump is right like that that Ukraine could not have possibly lasted this long, no matter how down they are for their squabbles, because clearly Zelensky is down for his he is down the squabble. He will square up. I don't care how big you are. The reality is they wouldn't have lasted this long without American help, without our money and without our guns. That's the truth. I mean, and I hate to say it, but it's real. But you ain't gotta be you gotta

be like that. America is the last people you need to borrow money from. Who got an uncle like that, who got a homy like that. That's the last person you need to ask to help you move to borrow money when you're getting bullied. That's the last listen. I've talked about this before, about cashing that check. I have a case of emergency break glass card to call. There is an og I could call, but that I will be paying for that for a very long time. So

you can't always you just can't. They gonna big bro you all the time. So you already understand. You also already understand somebody that like, it's just you're not finna just play with me in my face right now. I don't care what the situation is. You're not just gonna play with me like you look, try Jesus not me, because I throw hands, Like, listen, I'm done with you playing with me in my face right you. You like you're gonna stop. You're gonna stop doing this with me

right now. I don't care. Like I'm ready to crash out, nigga, I'll go to jail tonight. I know I need this. But Nigga, you're not finna talk to me like that. We all understand that now. On the other hand, again, if you're from the city, you already understand somebody that you don't really mess with. I already kind of don't mess with you. It's but it's still like kind of the right thing to do. It's the right thing to do. But and you also got something I need. But I

kind of really I don't. I mean, alright, I guess. Do you know people like that? Did you? Like? All right, I guess, but like I'll here you go. That person got the nerve and to walk in and talk tough, and you like I already I already low key, don't really mess with you. I don't need you coming here acting. So I really don't want to do this. They making me do it, but like, I really don't, but you're gonna make I mean, I guess, but I'm actually looking

for a way to not have to do this. But you do got someth I need, So I mean, I mean, I guess, like I don't want to do this anyway, but since you need something from me, I might as well get something out of it. Do we understand the stakes here? Do you understand the comparisons I'm talking about? You know, don't you? You and my house? You need something? You expect me to be nice to you? Nigga, you

didn't go home? So we talk about that, only we're talking millions of lives, a reversal of the Cold War and a possible genocide, and a racing of an entire country off the map. That's what we talking about, Okay, here we go. So the build up, the build up's got to go back to twenty fourteen, and it actually has got to go back to the Cold War, believe

it or not. Now we've talked so much about the Cold War before in that really in the era that like, for some reason, this bubble that you and I exist in, we all know in one hundred and fifty years from now there will be an entirely new crop of humans on this planet that will be looking at an entirely different world, probably a world that doesn't have Florida in it because of sea levels unless we do something incredible.

Since we live in this era, there are certain things that have shaped the world that you and I existed, one of which is the Cold War. Dawn time to go into the complete history of the Cold War, but I feel like if you Midge, you kind of understand what that is. Arms race, nuclear bombs, Why Russia is our big enemy? Is was this communism versus democracy or capitalists that we believed is an existential war for who won't run the planet? Who going to be the greatest superpower? Right?

Who gets to control the board? It's Cold war? Right? And some would argue, depending on how you want to cut it that America one US won the Cold War. Part of that was because of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the breaking up through the USSR into multiple countries, right, so the Soviet Union was no longer and Russia as a nation has always felt like we

got to get our get back. At some point, Vladimir Putin believes it is his job to get his get back, that Russia needs its glory that it's had before, and part of which means I can't have nobody joining NATO that live in my hood because you part of the ops. And what I need to do is start this land that I had that Russia had to give up. We got to get it back. We got to get our get back, one of which is Ukraine, because according to Russia,

there's no such thing as Ukraine. Now Russia, obviously, like I said, history is nuanced. Not every Russian feels like this. We're saying Russia as an institution or socio political, geopolitical context, Ukraine's not a country, just like the way that I don't believe Taiwan is a country. You're You're not a country. You're the people that lost the Civil War. You're not a country, so it's the same sort of context. So they're like, we're not We're not invading Ukraine. Ukraine is Russia.

They need to stop pretending like they not when you when you when you get kids that are old enough to start paying rent, and they actually pretend like the room that they that they exist in is their apartment. My nigga, that is not your apartment. This is you live.

If you if you are, if you're an adult and you had to live with your parents, you understand that you don't even if you pay, even if you pay and half the bills, if you live in the say, if you live under the roof of your parents, my nigga, you are not on your own, and you will never feel on your own. That's Russia's feeling. Ukraine is like, y'all, I mean, how are you finna tell me? First of all, there's a border number one, number two, we have our

own army, our own government, own Like you're diluted. What are you talking about? Oh my god, y'all lost. We're literally this is our flag. We're leg what do you what do you mean We're not a country. This is ridiculous. By twenty fourteen, Russia decided to annex Crimea, which is why I keep calling this series crimea River, and because it reminds me of Justin Timberlake crimea crime already. No, I learned that from hey anyway, the magic of Justin

Timberlake and Timberland is the chemistry's amazing. I realized that really ages me because y'all didn't get to enjoy that because I know my demographic. So since then Ukraine is like, like, uh, help, do y'all this book? Do y'all see this? Why are y'all just letting these Can we get some help? They down to squabble, squabble up listen and they not. They got molded a little bit hard. But like my g like we just we just lost an entire region. We made a peace treaty with these people to cease fire

for them to stop shooting. We was willing to scrap, but the only way to get them to stop shooting was to be like, Okay, damn, here's Crimea. But like, can you can you leave us alone? Like goddamn, you are the largest land mass nation. Like it takes longer. It as the most time zones of any country. It's longer to get from one tip of Russia to the other than it is to fly from Russia to Chicago. That's how big the country is. Why do you need us? Damn man? We did cease fires with them. They don't.

They don't keep their promises. We've all watched it. They continue They first of all, they didn't return hostages. They kept shooting. I would like, we're like we are we are literally out here on our own, like nobody I don't understand. And then the countries that are over here, Russia or countries that are next to us, Germany, France, the EU, y'all only sending us little pea shooters, nigga, Like, can we get some like weapon weapons? Are y'all scared

of Russia too? You really gonna make us be the only people willing to squabble up with them? How does it all fall on us? Well, if y'all not gonna help, can I join NATO in America? For some reason, was like, I don't know if we want to smoke with Russia. We just kind of finally like we finally, Look, we've been fighting with them through other people's fighting for like almost eighty years now, Like we finally, like everybody went to the corner. Now here's the thing. There's a difference

between calm and peace. There's a difference between peace and homeostasis. Right, And if you've again been in a relationship with somebody you love, you understand the difference between peace and calm. And what that usually is is you just don't want to rock the boat. Just don't say anything that's gonna set anybody off. We're going good right now, and I just don't want no problems. That don't mean you got peace, That just means you trying not to rock the boat.

And that's essentially how America's been with Russia forever. It's like you gonna chill, You gonna chill. Oh, you gonna chill. You, No, you chill, y'all chill, You're gonna chill. We already don't like each other, so just like, let's just not let's just agree to like stay out of each other's way. And Russia like, hey, listen, you take Ukraine. It's up. I don't like leave us alone to our devices. Ukraine

is like, are y'all serious? What? And Russia just continued to like, there's bully these fools, and then like we all remember, which is gonna be important very soon. We all remember in twenty twenty two, Russia decided to turn up again and they just hit the Domeboss region and just started just bomb bardon Ukraine. And this is where Vladimir Zelensky really started like squabbling up and became this international star. Now, Vladimir Zelensky was a movie dude, believe

it or not. He was in entertainment, and he became a president. And as he became president, according to him, he like a young, attractive dude, but he really bouked that life. Part of the uniform he wears all the time is a uniform match in the military. So when he goes to speak at other countries about trying to get aid, because he's like, listen, I'm on the front lines right now. You got me out here squabbling myself with this bully. I'm out here fighting debo by myself.

None of you niggas jumped in. So since one of you niggas jumped in, and y'all can at least throw me some weapons, okay, But he wear his guard out there, so he's this sort of sort of like hero situation where he's the one fighting these wars, right He the one on the front lines, and everybody thought, because Russia is Russia, that this war right now is gonna take like two weeks. But that man got more heart than a little bit, and he had squabbles and he was

lighting them Russians up right. The only problem is it's a trillion Russians. If you've ever tried to, like, you know, you live in a lower income and you got ants or you got roaches, you could kill him. It's just more of them. Sometimes it feel like the only way to end all these bugs is to just blow the house up. That's sometimes out feel, or to just give up and be like, listen, that room is yours. We just gonna live with roaches. It just is what it is.

I'm gonna do my best, but just they ain't nothing I gonna do right that Sometimes it start feeling like that, and we all saw that. Now, let's rewind the clock back to twenty sixteen, when it was very obvious to anybody that's got like three cents of logic, Russia, Russian trolls, Vladimir Putin and the Kremlin was really deeply involved in making sure that Donald Trump became president the first time. Clearly,

Trump admires this man. He liked the way. He liked the way Putin moved, he liked the way he talked, he liked the way he functioned. He liked the way the fact that he's just a big, tough guy again gangster. He like all that. He want to run his country like that. I want people to be scared of me the way they're scared of Pootin. I want I want people to walk in here and see me the way they see you. But I'm a New Yorker. I'm a

little different. I'm a little more mafioso like you. You know, you wrestle bears my nigga Like, that's not how we move. I move more mafioso style. You feel me, And I want I want to run the country like that, where the bread is mine, oligarch is mine. And I want to be recognized in the world the way that you recognize in the world. I'm trying to get like you, big Homy, which means that at some point we was

gonna see who was really the big dog. And again, if you understand the streets, we understand exactly who the big dog is. It ain't Trump because you doing whatever the hell Vladimir Putin tell you to do, and I'm like, this is this? This would even be me. If let's just say in a bizarro parallel universe that I was actually a fan of Donald Trump, my eyes would still not be lying to me. Nigga, you want to be him,

and that is your weakness. That man will get you to do whatever you cannot out finesse this man, and clearly you owe him. So once it started coming out that there was certain things going on about the election and how the mug was stolen and that Trump was like you tripping, you know, then you had the Russian probes and you know, Robert Muller and all this stuff.

When Trump was being investigated. Now, one of the initial pieces of that investigation was that perfectly good phone call that Trump always talks about, when he was on the phone with guess what, Vladimir Zelenski asking him, if you want this aid from US, quit pro code. This was his first impeachment. If you want this aid from US, maybe you should investigate the Biden family. Remember Barisma and

Hunter Biden situation. Remember Trump already was like, already, don't mess with you, but there's a way you could help and it's if you would investigate the Biden family Zelensky like my, nigga, why would I investigate what that got to do with me? I don't that's not that's not my place anyway, And none of it matters anyway because the Congress has already agreed to this money. I don't understand what we talk about right now. There is no quid pro quo because the answers already. Yes, nigga, you

just got here. I don't understand, like, what are we talking about? And obviously Trump don't like it when it's somebody that he deemed himself stronger than talking to him like he craves. Now I want you again to put on your hood antennas and put yourself in Trump's shootes in the sense that you wouldn't like that either. If somebody you don't respect this little this little this little white, this little yn, if you will talking to me like like you done ran the streets like me, you two

lighten the booty like. I don't appreciate you talking to me like this. I was giving you a chance. I really don't have to mess with you. And how are you finna come in here and tell me what I need to do with my money. Zelinsky like, Nigga, what is you? Like? Zilinsky like, bro, what what do you think you're doing? Lisky like, hey, I thought you skipped war for bone spurs. Cuz ain't you just the like reality TV show star that's sold a bunch of trash buildings? Nika,

who are you? Like? I don't understand what what respect do you want me to have for you? I'm like, you have to remember these people what now? I know they are not nationality wise Russian these are, but these people are from New Europe like these these are like we make jokes about the Caucus Mountains from the caucas regions,

about Caucasians, we make jokes about it. But these versions, these these tribes that live up there in the Serbian I don't know if you've ever met like real street people from this region, like people that like didn't know the bad guys in movies, the henchmen, like they don't they are not to be played with. These people like Zelenski come from that. He like, I know I'm a pretty boy now, but you gotta understand, like my people

survive winners that wipe out species. I know, Vladimir my enemy but you gotta understand we cut we from the same era. We cut from the same cloth. So all that tough talk with me it don't you gotta understand I'm not don't do all that tough talk like I like, if anything, you have to remember he like, if anything, I feel like again, I'm cut from the same cloth as Vladimir Putin. He just don't keep the code. I keep the code. So that's what we're talking about right now.

So you have to remember Trump already, don't mess with now. Trump loses the election, the next one, can't stress enough, actually lost it. Biden jumps in with a lot of the Republicans also that are like, we need to defend Ukraine. That's right, like they are the they are the front. Now listen, we tire of sending bodies out there now. I'm finna send no bodies out there, but we could send you some guns because we all saw with our own eyes these people Russia, unprovoked, just decided to attack

Ukraine like we saw it. So Zelensky's like, man, thank you. You know what I'm saying, Like we really do need this help, Like we honestly couldn't survive this without you. We feel like we, I mean, we fighting, we holding it down, like wed we pushing the line. But like my nigga, like this ain't gonna stop unless y'all help.

And now if y'all don't help, the least you could do is just kid, if you would, just if you would just let us, if you just let us join NATO, just I don't understand, Like, if you just let us join NATO, we'll be fine. But Trump this whole time is like, I don't know why we sending money to them. I don't like And every time Trump opened his mouth, it's things that Russia said. So vlaidmirre'. Zelensky's not stupid. He's like, you're just repeating. What the fuck man? You're

just repeating, like how are we here? So obviously, now, Zelensky's deeply invested in making sure, hoping that if Trump win, it's gonna be really hard for me to go over there, because I already know he don't. He keeps saying peace, But here's how he describing peace. This is the funny part you describe in peace like this, if you just give Russia what they want, then they gonna stop hitting you. So if you want peace, so that's how I'm negotiating.

This is me doing diplomacy. Is like, I'll just I'll get you a ceasefire if you just give him everything. Let me get this straight, homie. So what you're telling me is these bullies will stop jumping me if I just give them everything they ask for when I walk by. That's how I get peace. This is your negotiation. So you're telling me that, like, okay, well then let me do this deal. If I do this deal, they'll leave you alone, my nigga, if I just give them what

they want. This isn't a deal. What the and how are you? What do you have to do with this deal? I just need you to continue to support us like you said you was gonna do. So this is the build up. Y'all already don't mess with each other, but it looks like you might need each other. That that's

the build up. Here's the setup. Ukraine has these things called these rare precious minerals, which are stuff that you need for chips, like you know, processing chips for our iPhones, for our solar panels, for just things that we need in this world. Ukraine got it? Now? You remember Trump fashions himself as a dawn, and in his mind there are no relationships. We have no homies, there are no friends,

there's only customers. My support to you is contingent on what you can give me, what you got for me. I'll help you, but you got to help me. We got alliances based on what you can give everything. If you think of him like this, it makes sense everything, transaction everything. I do everything for the hood, and even that, what's in it for me, my nigga. I don't owe anybody shit. We agree on something, you do your part,

I do mine. That's it. And if I don't like the agreement in the middle of the agreement, I'm changing the agreement because I don't care about you either. I just need minds. And that's how this man does what he calls diplomacy. So the setup is now. If you want me to continue to go back to my country and tell them to keep supporting you, which I clearly don't want to do. It's so obvious he don't want

to do this. Well, we need to get something in return, and what I need is for you to agree to give us all your precious minimal and low key is Trump's attitude. You kind of owe us. We was giving you aid without anything in return in the first place, So really, I could stop giving you aid and you just paying me back all the shit we've done for you.

You just paying us back. So what I expect you to do is I expect you to come in here, kiss the ring, say the thank yous, and then let me, you know, kind of flex a little bit, and let's get this deal done. Let's get what I need first, and then we'll talk about what you need, which means subtexts. If you again, if you're from the streets, you already noticed Trump had no plans on giving them to anything. That's why he kept saying, oh, we'll talk about defense

stuff later. Let's just get the deal done. Let's get the deal done, and then we could talk about what you need. Translation which I think you already know the translation. Zelenski coming in here, like, okay, I'm gonna have to eat kron I hate this shit, I hate this clown, but I do need this I do need these guns. But I need him to understand that, like, yo, you are being hoodwinked, right, this man is using you. I'm telling you like you keep saying you're my that you're

our only friend. But what's what I'm trying to tell you. I'm your only friend. I'm the only one telling you the truth. Everybody else in here scared of you. I'm telling you the truth. Bro, Listen, this helps us both. You don't live over there. I live over there. So like, like, listen, this man is using you, and he like, I'm trying to tell you, he using you. I know you don't like me. You don't give a fuck if you like me or not. This nigga is using you, right, So

this is the setup. We're gonna come in. We're gonna have this thing. Trump knows for a fact that this war cannot be one without America's help because they're still not a NATO and they just don't have enough manpower and enough weapons. Trump knows that. So this is the lens. So let's just go in here. Let's play nice, and let's figure this out. This man who is actively in war is like, all right, I'm gonna have to sell out a little and agree to this deal. But this

deal's got to have two sides. I'm gonna need you to stop just saying all this shit that uh the Russia saying and just like please just understand that, like, we're not the aggressors, which is something I forgot about in the build up, is that Trump had the actual nerve to get to fix his face, to say in front of the world that Ukraine started it, like we none of us remember two years ago. That was the funniest I was like, are you serious? You both we

were all there, you telling me this our fault. So if somebody punches you in the back of the head and it breaks they knuckles, it's your fault that your head is too hard. It's your fault he broke his knuckles because you shouldn't have had such a hard head. You shouldn't have defended yourself. So therefore you started it, is what Trump's I have to say, and blotting me is like I cannot believe. I listen, some people you

just can't borrow money from, like I said. So that's the build up, and the setup was this meeting to agree on this deal where Zelensky would get some security stuff. You're gonna do a ceasefire. You're promising to do a ceasefire and in return, you're gonna We're gonna let you have access to our rare minerals Zelensky like I need. It can't just be a ceasefire, because this is what I'm trying to tell you, he ain't gonna listen to it unless you put some muscle behind it. I've been

in this war for a long time. I'm trying to tell you. It's it's been over ten years. Okay, So that's what they're they're coming into. And the expectation is, like I said, you're going to kiss the ring, We're gonna sign the deal, blah blah blah blah blah. Yes, yes, you're so amazing. Okay, but can you do the thing? So everybody expected, but that is not what happened to

crash out. I love the fact that this played out in live TV for a number of reasons, because one, it proved the concept of what we were trying to say in this whole show, which is politics is just the hood talk. And secondly, what we already knew about Vladimir Selensky, which is we talking about a man that is so willing to stand on business. We have witnessed three years of him willing to stand on business that

he's like, you're not finna play in my favor. Him being so willing to not let you play in his face, which is why Ukraine keeps still standing, why they're still willing to send their sons to this war, because you got a man out here that's like, I stand for mine. I don't care what the world say, I stand on mind. Now I'm gonna come over here and I'm gonna let you talk. But listen, you ain't finna just play in my fast. So the joint meetings start, Frum do his thing.

Lord de Meir start talking about Hey, listen, man, I want to show you some pictures cause I kind of want to show you that. Like I mean, I feel you, like I'm translating here, like I feel you. I know that's your boy, I know that's your hommy. And then but like, listen, what I'm trying to tell you is, like the idea that we started this is ridiculous. Man. What I'm trying to tell you is you can't trust your boy like this what he do. Here's some shots

of like some of the suffering we going through. Here's how he returned into our POW's here's him not agreeing to the Here's him saying he going through the ceasefire, and then not doing it. Here's him going back on his word. So I know you think that, like you could just tell this man to stop and he gonna stop. But I'm trying to tell you, or at least that's what you're telling everybody's I'm trying to tell you. He don't just he's not gonna listen. And it's not your

son's out there dying. It's my son's out there dying. It's my daughter's out there dying. So I'm just trying to say, like, I mean, I'm with it. I'm clearly I'm sitting here and I know you already don't mess with me, but like, I mean, you're right, like I mean, we really need to help, but this is helping you. Also, Trump's cool, like yeah, you know, it's it's really hard to see, but yeah, you know, let's let's let's let's get this going. And you're not gonna need any security stuff,

like he'll listen to me, it's all good. And Zelensky's like, I don't, I don't know, and then young ass JD listen, you know what, you know what he Linda, excuse me, I've got something to say here. You know you come here, you tried being strong. Joe Biden tried and blistering and saying this, this and this, and Vladimir Lynsky didn't listen to it. So what we're trying to do is true diplomacy. We're stepping in and we're gonna get it done for you. So I would like you to be a little more

appreciative for the things that you've done. Now let me pause for a second and be a narrator here, jd Vance and Trump ain't done shit. You weren't there, y'all. Weren't presidents during this whole time the Biden administration has So I don't know what thank you you want me to give you, but you wasn't there. So then and and this whole time, Zelensky holding its cool, holding his mud,

and he like okay, uh. You know, you know you could see it in a person's eyes when they like I'm done, I'm done listening, like I'm done, Like okay, I've been letting you, I've been letting you talk your talk for a while, but now like okay, hold up, I got time. Now. It's like when a black woman goes you know, I just think it's funny. Now you're stuck when a black woman do that. I just think it's funny that she about to tell you about your life, homie. She about to have a ton of receipts as to

how wrong what you just said was. That's I just think it's funny that, Like, she don't think it's funny. Nigga, you dumb as hell, and she finna hand you your ass. So essentially that's what he did. He was like, let me let me show you these receipts as to what you're saying is bullshit? Okay, what diplomacy? JD? Are you talking about? Nigga? We tried that and you've never done it. Also, you wasn't the fuck outside? Have you been? Have you been to Russia? Have you been to Krimea? Have you

been to Ukraine? Nigga, you haven't. You weren't there, homie. JD Like, I don't appreciate you being disrespect I don't seen videos. Again, you're not finna tell a man who just came from the front line that you've done seen videos? Jad Like, excuse me? Have you even said thank you for all the ship we've done for you? Vladimir? Like, thank you for what you've been saying for the past four damn years that y'all shouldn't help us. What do you you want me to do? You want me to

thank you for spreading Russia? Yeah, thank you, Okay, thank you? And Trump like, well, I don't want to talk about nothing to till you, till you sign over your ship. Just give me your lunch money and then we'll talk about everything. I just want to get you. Just give me your stuff, and he like, nigga, I'm not finna. Just hand this over to you without any promises. I'll tell I'll tell him to stop. You're gonna pull your dog off me. That's currently mauling me. Right now. I

don't think that dog listens to you. And right now the dog bite me. But don't think, my nigga, that dog ain't coming for you. Don't you get don't you? Don't you get it in your head. I don't know why you think you know why. I actually I do know why. You think you safe because you got an ocean in between us. He coming for you too. If he doing this to me, he doing this to you. And Trump ain't like, don't boss, don't tell no, don't tell no, Dawn. I don't think it's in your place

for you to tell me that. Now, this is me switching perspectives. Now listen, if you trump, you like you talking way too tough for somebody that needs me. I don't like how you talking to me right now. I don't have to do this with you. I already don't want to do this with you. So I'm gonna need you to pipe down. You are losing this war. I'm the only one talking talking straight to you. You telling me I'm the only talking straight. You don't only want

talking straight. I'm gonna wa talk it straight to you. Where the EU at huh have they helped I don't know why the fuck you yelling at me? They not helping you. I'm the only want to help. Now, give me all of your resources and maybe I'll tell these people to stop. Zelensky like, are you are you serious? Are you serious? I could have end this thing in three days. He's like, I know, that's what we hear from the Kremlin all the time. You're if I'm putting

myself in Zelensky's shoes. He's like, I can't believe I gotta talk to this soft ass clown. I cannot believe I have to deal with this shit. You the bone spur head ass like, I can't believe I have to you gotta talk to him? Have you gotta talk to him? He got them things. And that's what sucks about when you have to talk to an asshole like that. He's like, listen, you're you can't win this war without us, oh lord, don't sometimes in his defense, in Trump's defensie right, you

can't win this war without it. And this is why Zelensky looking at the EU like, y'all see this shit. Y'all got me over here like he right, y'all not pitching in. You got me over here asking this blowhard for money. Nigga like you in the block? You want to you live over here? Why y'all letting me do this shit? God damn it. I gotta stand there talk to this dumb ass. Damn it. Oh man, you needn't want me to be thankful out here, just lying, just

nothing you're saying. I'm trying to tell you I feel you. You're right, I can't win this without you. But don't you understand that if I don't win, he coming for you. Trump, Like, don't worry about me, homeboy, take care of minds. Absolute crash out. So now don't nobody want to talk. They go back to their rooms. Trump like, you know what, I ain't refuging him anyway, Send that nigga home. Lensky

went home. And then finally the EU was like, okay, okay, okay, we see, yeah, we on our own, this this crazy. We really on our own right now at ed. What I would hope would happen is somehow everyone's happy that the EU truly steps up, truly helps Ukraine to get through this moment. The thing about putting them, though, is he won't stop. He has to be defeated, and that means we're setting up another World war, only this time

we're on Russia's side. These young gangsters. It's weird little politics, y'all. All right now, don't you hit stop on this pod. You better listen to these credits.
