Hey this is tom nash, and before we start, don't click nothing, don't smash nothing and mainly don't buy nothing, we're starting right now, hey thank you for staying with me and let's talk about russia. First, russia is having a tough time in ukraine. The ukraine is weak. It's feeble, i think it's time to put the hurt on the ukraine.

I come from ukraine, you're not say ukraine, weak, yeah, well, we're playing a game here. Pal ukraine has came to you, but i take your little borax. If you look at the list of achievements that they set out, none of them are really good. Zelinski is still the president.

In fact, russia have made him more popular than ever. He went from being a mediocre politician with somewhat questionable popularity to a goat to a superstar. I mean people are writing rap songs about the dude it's insane now nato is more united than ever. In fact, new countries are trying to bang on the door.

Finland, once in more countries won in it's insane, russia has no friends left politically nobody's voting with them. I mean they're down to syria, eritrea, belarus, which is not even a real country anymore. I mean all their friends are gone. Russia, really, you could say, got pummeled here at the united nations, with this vote with 141 countries voting in favor of the resolution and only five voting against russia, belarus, syria, north korea and eritrea.

How about russian oligarchs they're running for their life? They just lost 120 billion dollars in aggregate over the past week, yachts and jets seized, while inside russia. Tonight the ruble has now lost half of its value, so chelsea's being sold by roman abravovic he's donating the money he's like leave me alone: they're seizing yachts, they're. Basically, going at the next of these people, and mainly that's the most important part, eu and germany are making a decision to completely diversify gas. They want out of russian gas as soon as possible and they're, basically arming themselves to the teeth.

Militarizing the whole surrounding area. Around russia, which is exactly what putin didn't want, germany is back down on an initial refusal to send weapons to support ukraine as it battles the russian invasion. Berlin has now agreed to a major armament delivery, including anti-tank weapons, surface-to-air missiles and rocket-propelled grenades. The policy shift brings germany into line with other western allies supplying weapons to ukraine.

So if you look at it from a strategy perspective, i mean russia is pretty. Screwed apple is pulling its products out of russia. Ikea is temporarily pausing operations in russia and in belarus, but, right now the economy is in turmoil. Russia's sovereign debt was downgraded to junk status on this russian business channel.

This economist drank to the death of russia's stock market much to the horror of the host, and even though russia's economy is a little bit simplistic. Basically, their whole economy is, let's dig things from the ground and let's sell them, there's not a lot of sophistication there. There's still the 11th biggest economy in the world and the u.s and the eu just grabbed 400 billion dollars of their money. It's more than half of you know russia's war chest, and this were incoming cheap, yeah bro.

This is what it is. You know bringing back the soviet union not to mention the fact. As i mentioned, stock market is completely down. We have a guy on russian tv, basically drinking soda, saying r.i.p the stock market.

I mean no money in the atms. The government is now coming out mandating people to sell their foreign currency 80 of it just so. The national bank has some foreign currency to try and regulate the ruble. According to this, like new executive order has been signed, every single person, every single person that is making money from abroad.

Basically, they must convert 80 of all of the uh foreign currency earnings that they've had since the beginning of 2022 to rubles, which is slowly becoming worthless. At this point, like a penny i mean this has only been five days, but inflation in russia has already gone. 30. 40 50 depends who you ask.

I mean for five days my guy we're talking about seven and a half percent in the us over the year and we're crying about it. Russia is basically taking a beating, as always, and it's the same case with russia every time the politicians and the government is playing stupid games and the citizens that have nothing to do with it end up winning the stupid prizes again and again. This is 1998 all over again. People are going to have a tough time surviving people that just want to go home.

You know, go to work, come back home, have sex with their wife eat some lunch. Do it again, the next day pay their taxes mind their own business. The same simple people will now have to go through this miss because of some grandiose politicians. War games, unbelievable the un secretary general, following those results of the vote on the resolution, said really.

The u.n general assembly has spoken and the message is loud and clear. He said end hostilities in ukraine now and open the door to dialogue, and i mean the u.n is a joke. What's the one doing about it, the security council is basically, i mean non-existent. Russia is the president and they have veto over everything, so they can't even pass a resolution basically condemning russia on the security council, but i mean my guys: russia is actually invading ukraine.

Ukrainian people need help. They don't need condemnations, they need actual weaponry humanitarian support. They need our help that doesn't help them. If you condemn russia, i mean imagine some guy burglarized his home and he's like oh police, there's a burglar in my home and he's about to shoot me and the police is like yeah we're condemning the burglar.

Well. Thank you for that, but i'm pretty much dead now this literally was going on. What does these condemnations have to do with helping ukraine? I never understood what the u.n actually is supposed to do here. Dmitry rogozin, chairman of the russian space agency, riskosmos, said on thursday that russia has decided to suspend delivering rocket engines to the us in retaliation for sanctions imposed on russia over ukraine.

In this circumstance, we are unable to supply the united states with our world-class rocket engines. Allow them to fly on anything other than their broomsticks. Now russia is trying to fire back a little bit, and then i find it a little bit amusing. The head of the russian space agency, ross cosmos, dimitri rogozin, whatever the hell his name is, is basically saying we're not going to send rockets to the u.s anymore.

Let them fly to space on their broomsticks, my guy, nobody needs your. We have flying broomsticks that basically go up and down land and we reuse them. It's called the spacex stuff. I mean we no longer need this from the 80s and the 90s we're transitioning to actual privatizing the whole space industry anyways.

None of us needs this. In fact, you can take your broomsticks and shove. It up your ladder, we're getting some disturbing new video. These are live images of something we have just learned about from the associated press and reuters, and these fireballs that you're, seeing in the near ground, are important and chilling.

Here's what we've learned europe's largest nuclear power plant, the largest one on the continent, is in southern ukraine, and this moment it's reportedly being shelled by russian troops. And, of course, we have to talk about the fact that russian military decided it's a good idea to shoot shells next to the biggest european nuclear plant. Good idea, i mean at this point i'm starting to think that nukes and nuclear energy and russia is not a good mix. Why do i hate putin? So much? Is he making fentanyl? Does he eat dogs and for the finale we had? Two tv segments basically compete for each other for the most moronic reaction.

On the one hand, we had tucker carlson with his list of likes and dislikes why he likes putin. So much basically, you know not selling fentanyl and not eating dogs. I mean, what's going on with tucker john stuart, obviously tore him a new one. You have to go and watch that i'm not going to repeat jon stewart's jokes, i mean tucker carlson is falling off his rocker.

On the other hand, on india, we had a guy scream at the ukrainian journalist thinking he's an american journalist because he got their names confused and didn't bother to check who's, who you absolutely have to see this bit check it out. Oh well, mr you ask the african nations because you dumped them, you go and ask millions and millions of iraqi citizens because you dump them the world's biggest you people, you people have you. People and your colonial agenda, sir, has wrecked wrecked us out, has wrecked the south, has wrecked the east and don't don't don't sit here and lecture us dear host. I have not said a word yet.

I don't know why you're yelling at me, i'm not yelling at you, i'm talking about mr mcadams, i'm talking about mr mechanic adams. I am mr mcadams. Oh i am mr mcadams and i haven't said a word so stop yelling at me. Okay, sorry.

I got that confused. I got that you can create a guy who's going nuts - okay, not me! Yes, i got that. I got that that's boring and as always, thank you for watching. This was my two cents about what's going on this week.

I hope you had a good laugh and enjoyed yourself. You know, prayers and hopes for ukraine. Those guys are tough as nails. I absolutely love to see the tenacity and, of course, i just hope, there's no more loss of life and somehow this thing gets resolved.

Let me know in the comments below what you think about this format. If you like it, don't like it see you next week.
