Does this Ceasefire Benefit Russia/Lead to a Frozen Conflict? (+ Gavin Newsom’s Lame Podcast & Gaslighting Americans on Tariffs)

In this episode, Alex is getting over his head cold but has a lot to say about current events. He celebrates Real Madrid’s victory against Atletico Madrid, lambasts Gavin Newsom for having a podcast that is trying to be “the left wing Joe Rogan”, and reacts to a clip of the White House Press Secretary, Karoline Leavitt, gaslighting the public about why tariffs are good for the consumer. For the rest of the episode, Alex dives into the specifics of the negotiations between the U.S. and Ukraine over a ceasefire deal. He is pessimistic that this will work, thinks Russia could exploit its vagueness, and it could lead to a frozen conflict that will benefit Russia.
