No, you can't, we need to know everything.

So to walk you guys through what happened, my husband and I planned a family vacation to Russia.

We then thought, hey, while we're there, we should try to see if we can get an interview with Vladimir Putin, because that would make sense.

It would be amazing.

And so we put in a formal request and that request was denied.

as it is every year.

I've actually been trying to interview Vladimir Putin for like five years now.

I actually put in a request when I was working at The Daily Wire, ironically, to pitch it to the CEOs.

I was like, maybe we can make this happen.

We're trying to make it happen.

And I think, to be honest with you, that Vladimir Putin doesn't know I exist.

I'm working on it.

Tucker Carlson stole my shine.

Anyway, we were informed that, well, if this is when you're coming, if you extend your trip a little beyond that week that you're intending to go, you could make it to the annual SPIF conference, which is like the Davos of the East, so to speak.

Just so you guys know, this is the most hilarious part.

Trump administration sent an entire delegation to this same conference.
