Show Notes

  • The Russian military has apparently gained control of the city of Mariupol, which gives it an unbroken land bridge to the Crimean Peninsula and deprives Ukraine of a key port and long stretch of coast.
  • Meanwhile, as much as the West was hoping that economic sanctions would bring Russian President Vladimir Putin to his knees, it’s not at all going that way. The sanctions could actually be inadvertently empowering the Russian economy.
  • In Lebanon, the Jihadist terrorist group Hezbollah is losing political power.
  • Radical leftists in the U.S. have their pitchforks out, blaming a conservative political commentator for a tragic mass shooting.
  • We also discuss Germany arming Europe, some good news for Benjamin Netanyahu, Sri Lanka’s economic crisis, and some disturbing FBI investigations.
