Ep 588 | What the Media Won't Tell You About Ukraine & Zelenskyy | Guest: Pedro Gonzalez

Today we're talking to Pedro Gonzalez, writer and associate editor for Chronicles magazine, about the questions that we seemingly aren't allowed to ask about the conflict between Russia and Ukraine. While it's clear as day that Russia and Vladimir Putin are the aggressors in this war, there are also concerns that Americans should have about the very real corruption in Ukraine. Pedro talks about the "Liberal Internationalist" ideology that wants America to basically be the world police and how these people have been involved in Ukraine for some time now. Pedro also exposes one of the powerful Ukrainian oligarchs who's pulling strings behind the scenes. While President Zelenskyy is portrayed in the media as a hero with an unassailable character, there are questions that need to be asked about his connections to this oligarch and his commitment to being anti-corruption. Lastly, we sort out fact from fiction on whether the U.S. has bio-labs in Ukraine that NATO doesn't want Russia to have.
