Ben Meiselas: 本期节目主要讨论了普京在特朗普总统任期甚至开始之前就如何像演奏提琴一样操纵特朗普,以及俄罗斯持续嘲笑美国。节目中展示了俄罗斯媒体播放梅拉尼娅裸照并嘲笑特朗普的画面,并指出特朗普提名图尔西·加巴德担任国家情报总监,而加巴德被认为与俄罗斯有牵连,散布亲俄宣传,并经常出现在俄罗斯电视上。此外,节目还提到普京否认与特朗普通话,并在所谓的通话后升级了在乌克兰的军事行动,以此羞辱特朗普。特朗普政府对乌克兰的支持减少,也导致欧洲国家对其盟友关系的担忧。最后,节目还批评了特朗普政府的一些其他任命,认为这些任命愚蠢且令人担忧。 约翰·博尔顿: 博尔顿认为加巴德和盖茨的任命是美国历史上最糟糕的内阁任命,这反映了他对特朗普政府的强烈不满和对国家安全的担忧。 伊丽莎白·沃伦: 沃伦参议员批评加巴德不适合担任国家情报总监,因为她与普京的关系密切,并散布亲俄宣传。这表明美国政界人士对特朗普政府任命的不信任和担忧。

It gives me no joy to continue to report how Russia continues to mock the United States of America after Donald Trump won in the election or how Vladimir Putin keeps demonstrating his dominance over Donald Trump, quite literally having his Russian state-owned TV laugh at and mock Donald Trump by continuing to show nude photos of Melania on their evening broadcast. And it

continues, of course, with Donald Trump nominating Tulsi Gabbard to be the Director of National Intelligence, who many people in the actual intelligence community believe is

Her to be compromised by Russia and actually working in the interest of Russia. She's made numerous posts spreading dastardly lies and conspiracies about Ukraine having bio labs to justify Russia's unlawful invasion of Ukraine.

She talks negatively about NATO. She praises Russia consistently. She's featured on Russian TV quite frequently for her pro-Russia stance on everything. I'll just, I can show you lots of clips like this, but this was back from June of 2022. Here's Tulsi Gabbard on Russian TV being highlighted here. Play this clip. Former member of the House of Representatives of the United States, Tulsi Gabbard, advised Zelensky to

Now.

Now, Russia State TV, which earlier in the week was showing those nudes of Melania while the hosts were laughing and mocking Donald Trump. This is their evening broadcast. It's like their equivalent of the Hannity Show, just to give you perspective. This is their Fox News. Fox News is basically Trump state propaganda broadcast.

except Russia is mocking the United States now for what it did. So here's Russian TV. This was from last night and they're praising all of Donald Trump's picks and they're saying, you can listen to yourself and you can see the captions where they talk about how Donald Trump continues to show his love of Vladimir Putin. I'm just going to show you a minute of it, but you're probably not going to see this anywhere else. I just want you to see

Daniel Hill reports that Donald Trump demonstrates sympathy for Putin and has a deep contempt for Zelensky.

Trump can reduce the aid of Kyiv and force the Kyiv authorities to negotiate. Today, Donald has created another position for the Kyiv regime's hateful. Billionaire Elon Musk together with businessman Vivek Ramaswamy will head the Ministry of Efficiency of State Management.

former CIA Director John Ratcliffe, the new US Defense Minister. Trump offered to appoint 44-year-old TV host Pete Haxett.

Now, just take a look at some of these posts by Tulsi Gabbard, just so you can see it for yourself. I know there's a lot of hyperbolic rhetoric out there. And so I know you want to see the facts. Okay, Ben, you're saying she's compromised by Russia. What do you mean by that? Well,

Tulsi Gabbard tweeted that Japan was America's enemy because of Pearl Harbor within hours of Japan giving Ukraine a loan.

She goes, "As we remember Japan's aggression in the Pacific, we need to ask ourselves this question: Is the remilitarization of Japan, which is presently underway, truly a good idea? We need to be careful that short-sighted, self-serving leaders do not end up bringing us again face to face with a remilitarized Japan." She said that because that was the Russia talking points when Japan gave aid to Ukraine.

here again is who donald trump is nominating to be the director of national intelligence giving her the most highly classified of information that exists which could be turned over to vladimir putin here's what she said about ukraine now this is word for word the lies and disinformation spewed by vladimir putin about

the bio labs and why they had to invade Ukraine. Everything you're going to hear is Russian propaganda and disinformation laundered through the mouth of Tulsi Gabbard, who's now the director of national intelligence here. Play this. Here are the undeniable facts. There are 25 to 30 US funded bio labs in Ukraine. According to the US government, these bio labs are conducting research on dangerous pathogens.

Ukraine is in an active war zone with widespread bombing, artillery and shelling and these facilities, even in the best of circumstances, could easily be compromised and release these deadly pathogens.

Now like COVID, these pathogens know no borders. If they are inadvertently or purposely breached or compromised, they will quickly spread all throughout Europe, the United States, and the rest of the world, causing untold suffering and death. So in order to protect the American people, the people of Europe, the people around the world, these labs need to be shut down immediately, and the pathogens that they hold need to be destroyed.

Instead of trying to cover this up, the Biden-Harris administration needs to work with Russia, Ukraine, NATO, the UN to immediately implement a ceasefire for all military action in the vicinity of these labs until they're secured and these pathogens are destroyed.

In addition to all this, the U.S. funds around 300 biolabs around the world who are engaging in dangerous research, including gain-of-function, similar to the lab in Wuhan where COVID-19 may have originated from. After realizing how dangerous and vulnerable these labs are, they should have all been shut down two years ago, but they haven't.

Now, this is not a partisan political issue. The administration and Congress need to act now for the health and well-being of every American and every person on this planet. My old laundry detergent used to come in these big plastic jugs and it never lived up to the hype. I know you know what I'm talking about.

Now, I will show you one more clip of Tulsi Gabbard right here saying that Ukraine should not be able to ever join NATO. Play this clip. Presidents Putin, Zelensky, and Biden.

It's time to put geopolitics aside and embrace the spirit of aloha, respect and love for the Ukrainian people by coming to an agreement that Ukraine will be a neutral country, no military alliance with NATO or Russia, and therefore alleviate the legitimate security concerns of both US and NATO countries as well as Russia, because there'd be no Russian or NATO troops on each other's non-Baltic borders. This would allow the Ukrainian people to live in peace.

Aloha.

had simply acknowledged Russia's legitimate security concerns regarding Ukraine's becoming a member of NATO, which would mean U.S.-NATO forces right on Russia's border. In other words, she's blaming NATO and the United States for Vladimir Putin unlawfully invading Ukraine. It's a straight-up Russian propaganda talking point right there.

I've also been covering here how what's going on behind the scenes that corporate media refuses to cover about how Vladimir Putin is showing his dominance over Donald Trump, how Russia is mocking us right now, how they're treating us like one of their satellite nations, like a weak pathetic entity as a result of Donald Trump, not the proud, great, brave country we are that should be leading the world. So just think about this, right?

Donald Trump leaks to the Washington Post earlier in the week that he spoke to Putin. And he says that I ordered Putin not to escalate further in Ukraine. We had a great conversation, he says. That was reported by Washington Post. So in international diplomatic relations, if you were going to show partnership,

you would acknowledge the existence of that communique taking place at a bare level, and then you would follow through. You would expect Putin to say something like, we've had a conversation, we take it deeply serious, if there was mutual respect. But this is how Putin dissed Donald Trump.

Kremlin, Putin, the Kremlin, like saying DC, Kremlin dismisses reports that Trump and Putin spoke in recent days. And Putin said that any insinuation that he spoke to Donald Trump about Ukraine is, quote, pure fiction. So just saying Donald Trump is delusional. I'm not afraid of you. I'm just going to say you're a freaking liar.

And so that was a message that was sent. Also, Putin then immediately after that so-called phone call escalates, sends more troops into Ukraine. He bombs a reservoir right there, causing havoc, clear signs of escalation in Ukraine and absolutely no signs of de-escalation there as well. You know, and despite the mockery, the humiliation Putin's putting the Trumps through, Putin

They just keep begging their daddy Putin for help and saying, we're going to help you, daddy Putin. I mean, look, you have Don Jr. making Instagram posts saying you're 38 days from losing your allowance regarding President Zelensky. And it's a photo of Zelensky with money flying at his face.

By the way, did you catch in that Russian TV segment that I shared with you where they were like mocking the fact that in the United States of America picked a TV host to be their secretary of defense? You pick a guy, Peter Hegsa, Zero Experience, who's a Fox TV weekend host.

to be the Defense Secretary of the United States. Of course, Russia is laughing at us and rejoicing at just the idiocracy here. Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. Matt Gaetz as Attorney General. Kristi Noem killed her dog Cricket to become the Homeland Security Director. What are we talking about here? Well,

They're talking about it in Parliament in the UK. And here is what Ed Davey had to say when questioning the prime minister, what the UK is going to do. You know, now this has real world consequences in a game right now. Countries in Europe who need to protect their own sovereignty because Putin is going to plan on invading the other countries next. They have to now shift and say, we can't rely on.

On NATO, we can't rely on America as an ally. We've lost our alliance with the United States of America because America is coddling the enemy right now. So here's that moment in parliament. Let me show you.

A senior adviser to President-elect Trump, Donald Trump Jr, has shared a post on Instagram that declares that President Zelensky will soon, within the next few weeks, lose his allowance.

If the Trump administration does withdraw support from our brave Ukrainian allies, will the UK and Europe step up to fill the gap? Will he seize frozen Russian assets, not just the interest, but the assets underlying that, so he can fund a huge boost to the Ukrainian forces in their fight against Putin's war machine?

Mr. Speaker, as he knows, we've been resolute and strong in our support for Ukraine in the face of Russian aggression. And I have been speaking, as he will know, in recent weeks with other leaders about how we put Ukraine in the best and strongest possible position at this time. And I'll continue those discussions. Thank you. By the way, here is what Elizabeth Warren, Senator Warren from Massachusetts, had to say about Tulsi Gabbard.

Let's play this one. Many things I disagree with Marco Rubio on, and I haven't decided yet about voting for him, but he is qualified. He has experience. We may have differences that would cause me to say, I don't think that he should be secretary of state. And we'll go through that. We'll listen to the hearings. I want to hear very carefully from him.

But what we're talking about with people like Matt Gaetz is very different from what we're talking about with people like Marco Rubio. And we just have to keep that in mind. But do understand with Matt Gaetz, and you've already made this point, he's not the only one out there who is unqualified and who raises whole questions like Tulsi Gabbard does. You really want her?

to have all of the secrets of the United States and our defense intelligence agencies when she has so clearly been in Putin's pocket, that just has to be a hard no. And here is John Bolton, the former national security advisor to Donald Trump, who said that Donald Trump is a threat to NATO, a threat to our national security. And here's what John Bolton had to say. Here, play this clip. Tulsi Gabbard.

What are your thoughts this morning? Well, I thought it was the worst cabinet-level appointment in history until they then heard about the Matt Gaetz appointment. Really, my reaction was that this is like the legend of Caligula, the Roman emperor, who wanted to nominate his horse as a Roman consul.

You had to be a Roman senator at the time to be a consul, and it was intended to show how demeaned and degraded the Roman Senate had become. So now we're going to see whether the American Senate can stand up and reject two people who are totally unqualified, unfit professionally, and really lacking in the moral characteristics, the character that you need to hold these jobs. I think this vote should be 100 to nothing against both of them.

So folks, as I said at the outset of this video, it does not bring me joy to report that our powerful nation is being mocked by Russia, that America now looks more like Hungary, the country, Viktor Orban, a satellite of Russia than the United States of America. But that's how Russia is treating us, like a clown show right now. And frankly, the clown show has come to Washington, D.C. with gates and

Kristi Noem, Tulsi Gabbard, and Peter Hegseth and Fox hosts. More idiotic than idiocracy. We'll report on it every day. We'll be by your side every step of the way. We're going nowhere.
