Über diesen Titel

 Meseidy and Rachel are back with foreign policy queen Amanda Peterson to break down the biggest geopolitical moment of Trump's second term - his high-stakes meeting with Putin in Alaska tomorrow. We're diving deep into what this means, why Alaska (hello, former Russian territory!), and whether Zelensky calling for more sanctions is the dumbest political move of 2025.But wait, there's more! We're unpacking Trump's genius tariff strategy that's apparently just now being discovered by the Washington Post (eye roll), the weird Nvidia-China chip deal that has us all feeling icky about government-corporate partnerships, and why the Philippines might be where World War III actually starts (spoiler: it's not Taiwan).Plus, Amanda breaks down why Biden's Ukraine strategy was basically "here's how to finance your war" and we react to the most pathetic federal crime of the year - the Great Subway Sandwich Assault of DC. Because nothing says "resistance" like chucking a mediocre sandwich at a federal officer and running away like a toddler.Fair warning: Rachel mysteriously disappears halfway through due to technical difficulties, but don't worry - she's there in spirit and we pretend everything is normal because that's how we roll.Connect with AmandaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@amandatalksgeopoliticsX: https://x.com/amandatalks__Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/amandatalksgeopoliticsYoutube: https://youtube.com/@amandatalksgeopoliticsSubstack: Amanda TalksTrue Crime Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dont-waste-this-f-cking-podcast/id1757463535Episode HighlightsTrump-Putin Power Play in Alaska - Why meeting on former Russian territory that's now US soil is the ultimate diplomatic flex and what it signals about America's new position of strength.The Washington Post's "Shocking" Discovery - Media finally realizes Trump's tariff deals involve more than trade deficits, because apparently they've been asleep for four years while his advisors explained this repeatedly.Nvidia's Sketchy Government Partnership - The 15% revenue sharing deal with the feds over China chip sales that has everyone feeling uncomfortable about corporate-government coziness.Biden's Ukraine Strategy Exposed - How the previous administration basically gave Putin a playbook for financing his war while providing just enough aid to keep the conflict going indefinitely.The Subway Sandwich Federal Crime - DC resistance reaches peak patheticness as DOJ employee throws sandwich at federal officer, gets felony charges, and loses his job over the lamest assault ever recorded.Listen Ad FreeLove what you’re hearing and want even more?
