All hell is breaking loose as the so-called US special envoys to Russia and Ukraine wrapped up their meeting with Putin in the Kremlin. What did Putin do right away? Struck hard in Ukraine. Explosions heard in Kharkiv, Ukraine. Explosions heard in Sumy, Ukraine. Explosions heard in Zaporizhzhia. In all, Russian attacks killed 3 innocent Ukrainians. They injured over 20 innocent Ukrainians across the country following the meeting between Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner and Donald Trump's scumbag real estate friend from Manhattan, Steve Witkoff, who are not appointed, not elected, who are completely illegitimate, and who no American other than the MAGA bootlicking sycophants wants to be representing the United States in discussions like this. This was one of the, if not the most embarrassing diplomatic meeting or meeting at all in United States history where Witkoff and Kushner arrived in the Kremlin yesterday. They looked starstruck when they saw Putin. And then when they sat down across from Putin, Witkoff said, today is one of those days when we retire, we're gonna look back on as one of the best days in our lives. The memories that we are making today, being in your presence.

00:01:35

is something that words cannot even describe. And Vladimir Putin, I want to also just thank you for not striking Ukraine and for allowing us to take this trip to be in your presence. And what did Putin do? He immediately struck Ukraine. This, as Zelensky's been saying, we want a durable ceasefire. Okay. We're also learning what actually took place during this 3-hour meeting between Witkoff, Kushner, Putin, Yuriy Yushchakov, Kirill Dmitriev. I'll go over what went down, but I want to talk about what's actually happening in Ukraine because this is not getting nearly enough attention. So before Witkoff and Kushner arrived in Moscow, Putin ordered strikes. You know where? at the airports in Kyiv in order to scare Witkoff and scare Kushner. So you had these major airports that were hit hard by Putin. You also had the main security building basically in the heart of Kyiv that was struck hard by Putin. And Donald Trump's been tapping Zelensky along for many months now, frankly, more than 18 months at this point, promising Zelensky Patriot interceptors, or at least interceptor licenses, right?

00:02:59

Right.

00:03:00

At the NATO summit, you know, the same summit where Donald Trump hid in the catering container with Natalie when he left, 'cause he was too afraid to go on the old Air Force One, even though the Qatari Air Force One was in the UK because Netanyahu told Trump that Iran was going to blow up the old Air Force One. So Trump let the press go in the old Air Force One, and then he and Natalie went in another military plane. That NATO summit, Donald Trump told Zelensky, We promise we will give you the interceptor license. This way you don't have to complain that you're not getting the weapons anymore. Well, Donald Trump lied, and now Zelensky doesn't have the interceptors or the ability to make interceptors. And so Russia has accumulated a large inventory of ballistic missiles of various kinds, and Putin is getting ready for a massive winter offensive. But already, Putin rains down these ballistic missiles in batches of 12, 24, and Zelensky's unable to intercept them. Also, Putin's been improving on the capabilities of those Iranian Shahed drones. Before, Zelensky had these drone interceptors that were able to shoot down these Shaheds, and Zelensky still has those interceptors, those drone interceptors.

00:04:20

But the Shahed drones, now buttressed by some Chinese parts that have been added to the production cycle, now these Shahed drones go so much faster— 300, 350 miles per hour— much harder to shoot from the sky. And that's becoming a major issue as well. Let's talk about what went down though when Witkoff and Kushner were about to leave their meeting with the Kremlin. But first, let me just remind you, of course, um, what it was that Witkoff said to Putin inside the Kremlin. Here, Witkoff thanked Putin for not shooting in Ukraine and not shooting down Witkoff's and Kushner's plane as they headed into Moscow. Listen to this. I mean, how pathetic can you get? Play this clip.

00:05:13

I want to thank you for endorsing the no-shoot policy in Kyiv and in Moscow for these 3 days that allowed us to be able to come here in a safe manner.

00:05:27

And then as Ilya Pomerarenko from the Kyiv Independent says, I want to throw up. And this was during the meeting when Witkoff looked to Putin and said, the memories that we're making being here are something— is something I will always cherish when I retire. And listen carefully to what Witkov says. He says, I was speaking to Kirill, I was speaking to Yuri, we were all talking about this. Like, Kirill and Yuri— he's talking about Kirill Dmitriev and Yuri Ushakov. Kirill Dmitriev is the head of the Russian Sovereign Wealth Fund and also the envoy to the United States. Um, Yuri Ushakov is a special advisor to Putin. Those were the individuals, you'll recall. Do you remember? They were in Miami and they helped prepare basically the Putin plan of surrender for Zelensky that last year Trump tried to push on Zelensky. So the fact that they're in the room also, which, you know, they're— they've always been in the mix with Witkoff and Kushner, and that's why Putin handpicked Witkoff as the counterpart in this negotiation, knowing the humiliation ritual that the United States would be put through. And he knew that Kushner doesn't know what the hell he's doing.

00:06:44

Kushner's an idiot, um, and, and an evil idiot also. But listen carefully over here, um, to this clip that I agree, I want to throw up listening to this clip as well. Here, let's play this clip.

00:06:57

So first of all, President Putin, thank you, thank you so much for having us. We were sitting outside just now, me, Jared, and Carol, and then Yuri joined us, and we were all talking about when we retire, we'll have all these incredible stories and incredible memories, and yours will be right at the top of it all. Мы уже говорили, это стрезь и сиводное, мы были за двеметро к беньета, гospodин ДMITРИЯ, гospodин ШАКОВ, ДжЕРЕТЕЯ.

00:07:34

So that's what was being said in the room with Putin. And what was taking place? Well, let's get into some of the facts. Russian attacks across Ukraine killed at least 3 people and injured more than 20 others on September 5th. At the same time, US envoys Witkoff and Kushner met with Putin in Moscow for the talks on ending the war. I don't believe that's— I believe the talks were how to try to coerce Zelensky into a surrender. Russian forces struck the Chuhiv in Kharkiv Oblast, killing 3 people, including a child, and injuring a woman. A jet-powered drone hit a house in the city center, destroying the building as well as a warehouse and a garage. Kharkiv Oblast Governor Ola Sanaibov said the strike killed nearly an entire family. A 19-year-old woman, an 11-year-old boy, and a 45-year-old man. More than a dozen people were also injured in Zaporizhzhia, where Russian drones struck several buildings, including a high-rise residential building and an administrative building. We have videos of that right here. Let me play the first video. Let's play it. Let me play the next video. Let's play it. Here's a photo of some of the damage that was done.

00:09:04

We're learning what else may have taken place in this meeting. Putin's aide Yuri Ushakov commented on the meeting as follows. According to him, Putin told the envoys Kushner and Witkoff that Russia was advancing on the front lines, was certain to reach the goals of the so-called special operation and that the Kyiv regime was Nazis and they were going to fall soon. Ushakov said that the envoys promised to use the assessment received from Putin in their conversations in Kyiv tomorrow or now, today. Do you get what he's saying? It's the same thing we saw before. And I wanted to remind you who Yuri Ushakov was and who Kirill Dmitriev was. Because they previously prepared the plan of surrender that was given to Zelensky last year that Zelensky rejected. They're just doing the same thing again, right? Isn't this the same exact thing that Donald Trump does in the Strait of Hormuz? It's the definition of insanity, but Trump is an insane lunatic psycho who promised he would end this catastrophic war in 24 hours. And now we're doing this BS because he's not a dealmaker. He's not a negotiator. He's a bankruptor. Trump's been a lifelong loser.

00:10:20

He can't even do Trump Steak or Trump Water or Trump this or Trump that. He bankrupts those things. He bankrupts all of these casinos. They can't handle this level of negotiation. These idiots don't know what they're doing. And it's a combination of them being idiots, them being just dumb dumb, and also them being malicious and evil. It is a potent combination for the destruction of the United States, and we're seeing it happen In real time. Reuters reporting that Putin also told Witkoff and Kushner that Russia would achieve its goals, saying that the root causes of the war in Ukraine need to be resolved, AKA Ukraine needs to be wiped off the map and integrated into Russia. That's what Putin's plan was. Putin hasn't changed the plan in any way. And meanwhile, Donald Trump has said, uh, this morning He believes the talks between Witkoff and Jared Kushner with Putin were meaningful, and we'll talk about the next steps coming up soon. Axios, a propaganda rag for Donald Trump with Barack Ravid serving as a personal stenographer for Trump, says the 2 sides discussed substantive plans for next steps, which will be announced in the coming weeks.

00:11:37

Let me just react. Can I say that one more time for us, please? The 2 sides discussed Substantive plans for next steps, which will be announced in the coming weeks. That's like, we have a framework of a framework of the contours of a framework of a deal. These people are just fraudulent scum. That's what they are. They lie to us all of the time. I've got a framework. We're moving towards the framework. No, you're moving towards the fraud. You're a bunch of liars and people are dying across across the world as a result of your behavior. I mean, look at what happened this morning. Again, this needs to be freaking front page news. This needs to be covered. Netanyahu once again struck hard in southern Lebanon. Several Israeli strikes have occurred all throughout the morning, damaging, severely destroying, leveling a hospital in southern Lebanon. Many casualties are being reported right now. A hospital destroyed by Netanyahu in southern Lebanon. Also, you take a look at what's happening in Gaza right now, where there has been numerous deaths. Gaza's ministry in the past 24 hours and a massive genocide that's been taking place. Gaza's Ministry of Health says 6 Palestinians were killed, and 27 wounded across the Gaza Strip over the past 48 hours alone.

00:13:09

Since the so-called ceasefire began on October 11th, at least 1,344 Palestinians have been killed and 4,600 and— 4,464 have been wounded. The cumulative total since October 7th, 2023 stands at at least 73,651 killed and 174,575 wounded. The ministry said more victims remain under the rubble and on the roads right there. With all of that going on, Trump's Treasury Secretary blaming the rise in oil on Russia and Ukraine, the war there, basically blaming Zelensky. That's why he says the price of diesel is so high, why the price of gas is so high. It's because of the Russia invasion of Ukraine, really, not because Donald Trump's unlawful and catastrophic war in Iran. And also, Donald Trump promised that he was gonna fix the war. He was gonna solve it in 24 hours. Do you remember that? But this is what, uh, which what Transportation Secretary Duffy had to say here. Play this clip.

00:14:29

I want to ask you about diesel prices. Diesel prices have reached a record high for all of time. Yet we're, you know, obviously there's a lot going on in the world. The vice president saying yesterday that a lot of what the administration has done has kept the— that they'd be a lot higher if it were not for the efforts of the administration.

00:14:50

Yeah. So I think that when you look at diesel, you have to look at the— at Russia.

00:14:54

and Ukraine.

00:14:55

Yeah.

00:14:55

And Russia was a major exporter, the second biggest exporter in the world on diesel. They've stopped their exports. So that puts pressure on a global market. But President Trump has pushed American energy dominance. We are producing more energy now than ever in the past. We need to refine more capacity. And just think about this, though, as we come into political season, it's Republicans who have pushed or trying to push more production and drive prices down. It's the Democrats who have always wanted Energy prices to come up and force you into an EV. And so that's rich now that they're like, hey, we, we're really upset about high energy prices. It's like, that's what you've been fighting for. And it's only President Trump who's trying to drive these prices down. And you're going to see them come down. We're going to resolve this issue in Iran and in Russia. And you're going to see historic low prices as we look to the future.

00:15:45

Yeah, indeed.

00:15:47

Now, let me just show you a final contrast right here. This is what Donald Trump said about sending Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner. He goes, they've done a great job. My 2 negotiators, they do a great job. Here, play this clip.

00:16:02

A month.

00:16:03

It's got to get settled. So I did. I sent Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, the 2, 2 great negotiators. They've done a great job. And, uh, we sent them over to see whether or not we can get something done. And there may be a good chance that we'll do it.

00:16:19

Versus what Prime Minister Carney said at the end of this week. Here's what Carney said his message is to Putin as Prime Minister Carney takes the role of essentially that the United States presidents used to have as the leader of the free world. Here, let's play it.

00:16:36

2 things. It's the host's prerogative to invite. I've been at the G20 Russia has been a permanent member of the G20 since the start, so it's the host's prerogative to invite who they invite to the G20. They're very valid reasons. Russia's unprovoked attack in 2014 was why they were ejected from the G7, and then the further attacks of almost 5 years ago now, why they were ejected from the G20. And Canada stands steadfastly with Ukraine. All know that. I've met Vladimir Putin in the past multiple times. He understands— he only understands strength and directness. And the message would be simple: get out of Ukraine, give back all of Ukraine to Ukraine, end this war, which is killing more than 30,000 of your people every single month. And I'd leave it at that, to be honest, because that's the core of it.

00:17:45

All right. So that's what we have now. We'll keep you posted on the rapidly advancing developments throughout the day. We'll let you know what's going on with the meeting with Zelensky. But I wanted to let you know that while the meeting was taking place between Witkoff, Kushner, And Putin in the Kremlin in Moscow, Putin was launching those strikes at Ukraine. And then you still have Whitkopf and Kushner saying, ah, this has been great. This is amazing. Humiliation. I mean, the most shameful time in American history. Like literally, I'm not being hyperbolic. This is a humiliation ritual that we're being put through. I could even get into also, you know, the fact that the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. Only 5 ships made it in and out of the Strait of Hormuz in, uh, like in the past day or two. Um, that there has been 6 ships that Iran was able to strike in the Strait of Hormuz, 3 tankers and 3 other vessels after the US struck 3 Iranian, uh, tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. Iran is now threatening it's going to strike the US aircraft carriers and destroyers or other ships in the area.

00:19:03

Massive escalation taking place there. This is what happens when people like, I mean, Donald Trump are in office. These are people who don't deserve to be anywhere near the office. They don't know what they're doing. They're dumb. They're frauds. They're scum. They're predators. They're horrific people. Horrific people. And it just— it's horrible that our country brought these people in, but we got to stand up. We got to stick together right now because— and not— this isn't a political position. This is like, wake the hell up, people. Wake the hell up. Hit subscribe. Let's get to 7 million. Thanks for watching.
