Ben (Benjy/Ben MidasTouch)

We have a lot to discuss on this episode of the Midas Touch podcast.

You have John Bolton being indicted at the behest of the Trump regime in Maryland, an 18 count felony indictment.

We'll break down what happened there in the federal court in Maryland.

Then we'll talk about what happened in the Illinois appeals court, where the court of appeals with a Trump appointed judge, a George H.W.

Bush judge,

and an Obama judge all agreed that Trump's invasion of Chicago was patently unlawful and that the protests that were taking place in Chicago against the Trump regime did not create a pretext for any type of military invasion.

You had Donald Trump speaking with Vladimir Putin on a day where

where Trump was supposed to announce, yet again, that there could be sanctions against Russia and perhaps Tomahawk missiles being transferred to Ukraine.

Donald Trump said that his call with Putin went great, and then now they're going to have more talks.

And, of course, yet again, Putin got what he wanted.

No sanctions on Russia, no Tomahawk weapons to Ukraine.

Putin knows how to play Donald Trump like a frickin' dog.

Meanwhile, the deal between Israel and Hamas seems to be falling apart.

It's easy to predict when Israel and Hamas did not actually sign the deal.

They were not signatories.

All these other countries signed it, but not the two parties that were the subject of the deal.

You have Benjamin Netanyahu not agreeing to a two-state solution.

You have his finance minister, a guy named Smutrich, a far-right guy, talks about building more establishments in Gaza, building more settlements in Gaza.

You have Hamas saying that it's not going to disarm and never intended to disarm under the deal.

They said that was never part of it.
