Truth vs. NEW$ Part 1 (6 March 2022) with Don Grahn, Scott Bennett, and Holly Seeliger

Zelinsky lies about Russian shelling of a nuclear power plant and radiation leakage, which is consistent with other "news" about Ukraine. Lindsey Graham inappropriately suggests that Putin ought to be assassinated, even though three presidents--Carter, Reagan, and Ford--had signed EOs prohibiting the assassination of the leaders of foreign nations. Putin's "Empire of Lies" speech of 24 February ought to be required reading of every US and European citizen--indeed, of the entire population of the planet--where he lays out in historically accurate and intellectually sophisticated language the reasons why Russia has had to undertake this special military operation in Ukraine. Biden, in the meanwhile, sends Stinger missiles to Ukraine, as are other countries including (to my surprise) Germany, which may have a cold winter if Nord Steam 2 is abandoned. China has enormous energy needs, which will more than make up for European losses, should it come to that. Veronica Swift lays out the situation with Ukraine--and it's not a pretty picture.
