- 1:49a great week so far, a great month of August
- 1:51so far, and a great year of twenty twenty five
- 1:54so far. You know, it's quite interesting, now that I
- 1:57think about it, there's something strange happening in the world
- 2:03right now.
- 2:04Speaker 2: I wouldn't say the world.
- 2:05Speaker 1: I would say here in the South where I reside,
- 2:08something strange is happening. There are twelve days left in
- 2:13the month of August, and I'm seeing something that I
- 2:17don't think I saw around this same time of year ago.
- 2:21I don't know how up on game you guys are
- 2:24when it comes to weather, but it seems like here
- 2:28in the South we're on the precipice of having a
- 2:33quote unquote early fall. Now know, for those of you
- 2:37that listen to this, who also reside in the South,
- 2:40you're saying to yourself, this guy's an idiot. There is
- 2:43no way that we're on our way to an early fall. Well,
- 2:46if you hadn't been paying attention, the leaves are falling.
- 2:51The temperatures later into the week are gonna start to
- 2:54drop into the mid to lower eighties in some parts,
- 2:58and you know what that lea to. Right when those
- 3:01temperatures start dropping, and when the leaves start falling, you
- 3:04get fall. And honestly, given how hot it's been this summer,
- 3:10I can't wait for the fall. I used to be
- 3:13one of those people when I were younger, as a child,
- 3:16I could not wait for summer. But now as I've
- 3:19gotten older and as I've enjoyed been outside a little
- 3:23bit more. Even though I've always enjoyed being outside, but
- 3:25now that i have more freedom to do that, I
- 3:29would much rather prefer being outdoors when it's comfortable, not
- 3:34when it's eighty degrees. Even when the sun is going
- 3:38down at seven o'clock, it is still hot. The wind
- 3:42helps from time to time, but for the most part,
- 3:44the wind isn't doing nothing. But just blowing hot air
- 3:47into the atmosphere. So on early fall seems to be
- 3:51in the works. I'm not complaining about it. As matter
- 3:54of fact, I'll be glad when fall actually gets here,
- 3:57so that way we can stop running these our conditioners,
- 3:59where we can still letting up the windows to our
- 4:01homes and lending some more fresh natural air into our homes,
- 4:05and we can trade the t shirts and shorts for
- 4:10jackets and pants, even though here in the South you
- 4:14can still wear a jacket and some shorts. I'm not
- 4:17complaining about that either, but just want to get to
- 4:19a place where normal, comfortable temperatures are a day to
- 4:25day factor and not eighties and nineties with a heating
- 4:30decks well into the one hundreds. So that's just something
- 4:33I wanted to get off my chest right at the top.
- 4:36It's gonna be a one topic episode today because I
- 4:40have to give you guys my thoughts on what everybody
- 4:43else has been talking about in the political world over
- 4:45the course of the past few days, and that is
- 4:49the fallout from the Trump Putin summit that took place
- 4:54this past Friday at a military base and inc rich, Alaska.
- 5:02So we talked about this last week in episode five,
- 5:07what a Trump Putin meeting.
- 5:10Speaker 2: Would result in.
- 5:12Speaker 1: And I told you guys in no uncertain terms that
- 5:15a Trump Putin summit would result in Russia continuing their
- 5:19onslaught against Ukraine. A peace deal would not be reached,
- 5:23a cease fire deal would not be reached, and it
- 5:26would give Vladimir Putin an opportunity to say, Okay, I
- 5:29did my part. I came to the United States for
- 5:32the first time in a decade. I met with President
- 5:35Trump and we talked about ways to bring this conflict
- 5:39to an end. I'm gonna go out on a limb
- 5:42and I'm gonna say something that I'm pretty sure a
- 5:44lot of you are going to disagree with. But I've
- 5:47gotten to the point, until proven wrong. I've gotten to
- 5:54a point where I don't believe anybody wants true peace,
- 5:58because if true peace was the sole aim of all
- 6:03parties involved, Russia would change some of their wants, Ukraine
- 6:09would change some of their wants, but neither side is
- 6:13willing to budge on what they want. We all know
- 6:17that Russia wants everybody, especially to the United States, to
- 6:23recognize the territories that they've taken. They want Ukraine to
- 6:30abandon its ambitions of joining NATO. They want Ukraine to
- 6:34turn back into a neutral country, and they also want
- 6:39new elections. Meanwhile, Ukraine wants security guarantees from US. Zelensky
- 6:47wants Putin in writing to say that he would never
- 6:49invade Ukraine again, and then there's still a possible chance
- 6:55that Ukraine wants to join NATO. So what in earnest
- 7:02did that Trump Putin summit in Alaska this past Friday
- 7:05actually achieved?
- 7:07Speaker 2: It achieved one thing and one thing only.
- 7:11Speaker 1: It achieved a great photo op for both leaders, because
- 7:15that's what that event was. It was a great opportunity
- 7:18for Donald Trump to show that I got Vladimir to
- 7:21come here. I didn't have to go there, because remember
- 7:23when these talks were in their infancy, you had people
- 7:27saying that Vladimir Putin wanted to meet Donald Trump over
- 7:31in the UAE, right over in Dubai. But then all
- 7:37of a sudden, it changed from the UAE to Alaska,
- 7:44which for Putin is basically his backyard, if you want
- 7:46to be honest about the matter. But I didn't really
- 7:50get a great sense of anything being achieved during their summit,
- 7:58and everybody wants to talk about how, oh, President Trump
- 8:01showed President Putin a show of force by bringing out
- 8:04the F thirty two bomber jets and all that, Like, look,
- 8:09how many tax pair of dollars went to pay for
- 8:12that summit? Does anybody know, because I don't, how many
- 8:18tax pair of dollars went to that summit? How many
- 8:23of our tax pair of dollars went to fuel those jets?
- 8:29How many of our tax pair of dollars went to
- 8:31put fuel in the presidential limousine in Air Force one?
- 8:38How many of our tax pair of dollars went to
- 8:41buy the red carpet that was rolled out for Vladimir Putin?
- 8:48And this whole thing was headlined was the what was
- 8:58the tagline? It's pursuing that was the tagline for this summit. Now,
- 9:05I will say this, I'll give the president a ton
- 9:10of credit because at least he's showing a willingness to
- 9:15want to have an open dialogue with President Putin. Joe
- 9:21Biden never showed that same sort of propensity. Now, I
- 9:26think he and Putin met once, and after that, that's
- 9:30when Putin said, all right, fuck it, We're gonna go
- 9:32ahead and just invade Ukraine because we know that Biden
- 9:37isn't going to do anything. What did Biden tell Putin
- 9:41when it was first being reported that this was going
- 9:44to happen.
- 9:45Speaker 2: Stop, that's what he told him, right Stop.
- 9:48Speaker 1: That's what you tell a six year old who keeps
- 9:50messing with something in the house.
- 9:53Speaker 2: Stop.
- 9:56Speaker 1: And I would say something else, but I forgot. We're
- 9:58in an era where now you can't really do this
- 10:01anymore to your children unless you want your children taken
- 10:03from you by the state. But anyway, that's a different
- 10:06conversation for a different day. I'm gonna say it anyway.
- 10:10We're controversial, so we may as well. You tell a
- 10:14child to stop messing with something, or you gonna put
- 10:16a belt on their ass. See, that's what's wrong with
- 10:21society today. We've gotten our parents to a point where
- 10:25they're scared to really discipline their children in that way
- 10:28because they're afraid of the state coming to take their children.
- 10:33I guarantee you if you still had those good old
- 10:37school parents that didn't mind put some left on your ass,
- 10:43these children will be much better than they are today.
- 10:46I'm just saying so anyway, getting back to the point,
- 10:52that's the credit that I would give Donald Trump. At
- 10:55least he's showing a willingness to want to sit down
- 10:59with Putin and talk about amicable ways to end this conflict. Now,
- 11:04on the downside, one of the things that Vladimir Putin
- 11:11has always been credited with by those who support him
- 11:17is the fact that he projects strength. Strength is his
- 11:23number one attribute. But what happens to a man if
- 11:29he feels that his strength is being impeded on? Vladimir
- 11:34Putin doesn't want to come to the negotiating table because
- 11:37to his people back home in Russia, that would show
- 11:39a sign of weakness. Because he made his people believe
- 11:46that when they went into Ukraine that they would get
- 11:50the objective finished, and it hasn't been easy for them
- 11:57the past three years.
- 12:00Speaker 2: But Putin would look weak to his own people.
- 12:04Speaker 1: If he got to the negotiating table, if he had
- 12:07to pull back on some of his demands, and then
- 12:12can you only imagine the picture of him and Zelinski's
- 12:17standing there holding nose folders or binders or whatever you
- 12:21want to call them, with the peace.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Agreement in it.
- 12:27Speaker 1: Boy, oh boy, you would talk about people ridiculing Vatimin
- 12:31putt to the high heavens, that's exactly what they would do.
- 12:35So to him, that's or to people on the outside
- 12:39who doesn't understand how he operates, not saying that I do,
- 12:43but you can you can tell, you can get a
- 12:45good sense that he does not want to negotiate with
- 12:50Zulinski because it'll make him look weak. So how does
- 12:55this end? That's the million dollar question on the table
- 12:59right now. How does this conflict end. Somebody's gonna have
- 13:07to renig on what they want. That's how this ends.
- 13:11Or Russia continues this onslot Us and our European allies.
- 13:20We just go ahead and give Ukraine whatever they need,
- 13:22and then World War three can break out, that's another
- 13:24way it can end. And then nuclear annihilation could happen
- 13:29and all of us could be wiped off the face
- 13:30of the earth.
- 13:31Speaker 2: That's a way that this could end.
- 13:35Speaker 1: But you have people who are actively trying to keep
- 13:38that from happening.
- 13:41Speaker 2: And then you have others.
- 13:43Speaker 1: Like Lindsey Graham and the rest of those neo cons
- 13:46in Washington who would love to see us in direct
- 13:50confrontation with Moscow. Because we all know that Lindsey Graham
- 13:56gets very horny for war. The way that a straight
- 14:02heterosexual male gets horny for women. Linsey Graham gets that
- 14:09same way for war. So you have some people who
- 14:20will come on TV, on these news channels and talk
- 14:24about how they're in favor of a peace deal, how
- 14:28they're in favor of a ceasefire, but secretly, behind closed doors,
- 14:32they want this thing to escalate.
- 14:35Speaker 2: And Lindsey Grahm is the face of that. He goes
- 14:39on Sean Hannity and Lord.
- 14:41Speaker 1: Ingram and all these other shows and he talks about
- 14:43how Donald Trump is the only one that can get
- 14:47a peace deal done between Russia and Ukraine, but secretly,
- 14:50Linsey Graham wants a full scale water breakout between US
- 14:53and Russia.
- 14:55Speaker 2: It would make his day.
- 14:56Speaker 1: He would get off on that, as well as so
- 15:01many of those others in Washington, d c. Who claims
- 15:05to be behind the President's agenda one hundred percent. So
- 15:12I want to talk about what happened yesterday at the
- 15:16White House. President Trump hosted Vladimir Putin, UK Prime Minister
- 15:25Kure Starmer, French President Emanuel Macrone, German Chancellor Frederick Mertz,
- 15:33the Italian Prime Minister Georgia Maloney, and finished President Alexander
- 15:37stup you also had the UN General Secretary or NATO
- 15:41Secretary General Mark Rutter, and the European Commissioned President Ursul
- 15:47von Dade Lavin. All of them were there, and I
- 15:51know I butchered that name. Charge it to my head,
- 15:53not my heart. Basically, they all showed up at the
- 15:58White House to make sure that Trump was still on
- 16:01their team. It's almost like when a college coach calls
- 16:07a recruit or sends out the big dogs to make
- 16:09sure that they still have the recruit locked up, Like, Hey,
- 16:13we want to make sure that you're still committing to
- 16:15the University of Florida. We want to make sure that
- 16:17Georgia hadn't came by here and enticed you with a
- 16:19better offer. So we're sending Danny Warfow, EMMITTT. Smith, Tim Tebow,
- 16:25Joe Hayden, We're sending all the big dogs to make
- 16:28sure that you're still on board what we have going
- 16:30on down here at the University of Florida. And I
- 16:33picked Florida because for those of you unfamiliar, they're my
- 16:35favorite college football team. So that's basically what happened at
- 16:40the White House yesterday. They all came there to make
- 16:43sure that Trump was still on the same team. They
- 16:45wanted to make sure that he didn't get swelled up
- 16:49by what Vladimir Putin told him Friday in Alaska. And
- 16:53so it has been reported that after the meeting wrapped
- 16:57up yesterday at the White House that Vladimir Putin and
- 17:02Voladimir Zelensky are very very close to sitting down with
- 17:05each other and talking about ways to end this conflict.
- 17:11I guess you could call me someone who looks at
- 17:13the glass half empty as opposed to have full. But
- 17:16I don't really think much could come from a potential
- 17:19sit down with Zolensky and Trump, or Zolensky and Putin,
- 17:24because they are too dug in to their beliefs about
- 17:29how they think this war should end. Putin doesn't look
- 17:33at Zolensky as an equal because he thinks that Zelenski
- 17:38shouldn't even be the president right now, because he's frozen
- 17:42elections because in wartime, nobody wants to go against the incumbent.
- 17:48That's the reason why Bush got reelected in four That's
- 17:51the reason why Roosevelt kept getting re elected in the
- 17:53thirties and forties, but more particularly in the forties. You
- 18:00don't want to go against who you have in positions
- 18:04of power when a war is going on. But this
- 18:10whole thing, and I think I speak for a lot
- 18:13of us when I say this, this whole thing has
- 18:16just gotten to a point where.
- 18:19Speaker 2: What happens happens.
- 18:21Speaker 1: And I hate to adopt that attitude, but that's how
- 18:24I'm feeling at the moment. What happens happens because this
- 18:29whole thing could have been over a long time ago
- 18:35if certain things were done Differently, war is not something
- 18:45that the Great Deal of Us won't because we've seen
- 18:49too many times the catastrophic price and the catastrophic toll
- 18:54that war takes on a country and frankly on an
- 18:58entire planet. But once again, some people like Lensing Graham,
- 19:07they don't seem to care. War is what wakes them
- 19:13up in the morning. Not God, but war, even though
- 19:17God wakes him up. Let's not be blasphemous with that.
- 19:21But war is what really propels them to go out
- 19:26and have a great day. So while we can commend
- 19:36President Trump for what he's doing to try to broker
- 19:41a deal between Russia and Ukraine, as long as Putin
- 19:46is dug into his beliefs and as long as Putin
- 19:49doesn't want to project weakness to his own people, this
- 19:53thing is going to continue to go on because he
- 20:01could wipe out Ukraine if you wanted to. We know
- 20:05that he hasn't brought out the big dogs just yet,
- 20:13and we also could do some fighting of our own,
- 20:16but I don't think the American people really have an
- 20:19appetite right now to be an a war, especially after
- 20:24we spent the early odds and the twenty teens fighting
- 20:29wars overseas in Iraq and Afghanistan. So I'm gonna keep
- 20:38my eye on this like I'm pretty sure you guys
- 20:40are gonna do as well. And all I can say
- 20:44is that I hope that the best prevails at the
- 20:47end of the day. And with that being said, ladies
- 20:52and gentlemen, that'll wrap up today's very short edition of
- 20:55the Igarius Williams Show. Want to thank all of you
