Andrew Roberts, the foremost Churchill biographer, joins the podcast today to discuss Ukraine and grants his imprimatur to analogies suggesting Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky is a present-day Winston. We also discuss the military strategy or lack thereof of the Russians and the surprising nature of the West’s response. Give a listen.

    Many on the left are convinced that the right is pro-Putin.  They see Donald Trump as pro-Putin and Donald Trump is the dominant force on the right.  Many on the left so hate Donald Trump that they instinctively do what they see as the opposite of him.  So many on the left may have accidentally done the right thing in supporting Ukraine.
