What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Mr. Minister of Budget, what kind of signs do you see in the air at the moment? No signs at all. Instead, I see amazing signs on the streets, on the streets, on the slopes, wherever and on the ground. What are you talking about? I'm not talking about anything, but about the Pudkesport winter season. I mean, what? Whatever, all the signs are coming from there. We're offering the best signs even at a 60% discount. Pudkesport.fi What T-vitamins did I have to buy? There was some memorization there. R as in nutritional, H as in good, M as in... What was it now? So Donald Trump, you've been busted by your own party.
Yep, the Republicans in the Senate actually working with Democrats. Get this on a bipartisan basis on serious foreign affairs issues. Uncover that the Trump regime essentially used Democrats Google translate to turn a Russian demand for Ukraine to surrender into an American proposal for Ukraine to surrender to Russia for Ukraine to give up all of its Eastern territory. to completely essentially disarm and to never join NATO. So let me explain to you what went down here. So you had this MAGA Republican Senator Mike Rounds from South Dakota. He was at this Halifax International Security Forum along with some Democrats as well. And while they were there, they learned about this 28-point plan which the Trump regime called a peace plan, but it was terms of surrender to be handed to Zelensky.
It literally looked like it was written in Russian, just the syntax, the way the words were phrased. It looked like Trump took a Russian plan, ran it through Google Translate, and then said, Zelensky, you have until Thanksgiving to accept this, or else we're not going to provide any support to Ukraine anymore. So, Republican Senator Mike Rounds, in a bipartisan fashion with Democrats, then reached out to Marco Rubio, his former Republican colleague in the Senate, who's now the Secretary of State, and started screaming at him, Rubio, what the hell is going on here? This looks like the Russian demand that Ukraine give up essentially all of its Eastern territory and disarm. And then Rubio was like, oh, no, no, no, no.
That was just the Russian proposal. That's not our proposal at all. Rubio told the Republican Senator Mike Rounds that this somehow leaked to the press and it was probably just the fault of the press and that Russia leaked it and that this is not the American proposal.
What initial evidence shows Republicans and Democrats exposing a leaked 28-point 'peace' plan?
This was purely the Russian proposal. So let me show you what Senator Mike Rounds says at this Halifax conference yesterday. But then I'm gonna show you how he smoked out the Trump regime along with Democrats that actually what seems to have transpired is that the Russians gave the US the proposal, the US translated into English and then sent it to Zelensky and said, this is our proposal rather than rejecting this thing and saying, what the hell is this? Yes, Donald, Russia, Russia, Russia, Russia, you literally are laundering the Russian plan. Here, play this clip first of Senator Rounds. Let's play it.
Senator Shaheen mentioned that Secretary Rubio did make a phone call to us this afternoon. I think he made it very clear to us that we are the recipients of a proposal that was delivered to one of our representatives. It is not our recommendation. It is not our peace plan. It is a proposal that was received as an intermediary. We have made arrangements to share it, and we did not release it. It was leaked. It was not released by our members or our representatives. So as we move through on this thing here, Representative Rubio has made it clear that this is an opportunity to have received it and that it has been utilized and delivered to the Ukrainians and that they will have an opportunity to respond.
Okay, so you have Senator Rounds say that, and then you had the State Department, Tommy Piggott, say the following. This is blatantly false. As Secretary Rubio and the entire administration consistently maintain, this plan was authored by the United States with input from both the Russians and the Ukrainians.
