Trump Meets Putin in Alaska: Historic Talks on Ukraine & Global Power Shift
Hi, my name is Glenn Story. I’m the founder and CEO of Patriot Mobile. I’d love for you to learn more about Patriot Mobile, www.patriotmobile.com forward slash Gene V. More importantly, I’d like you to be a subscriber to his show.
I mean, his truthcast is amazing. And if you get to listen to some of them, you’ll never go back. I really encourage you to come watch it.
I remember the first meeting that I had with our chief medical team. And I said to them, I said, life comes down, you’re going to be judged by the choices that you make. And when the choice to start this company came up, it was a no brainer.
Because we all need to fight for what we believe in. And we need to strive for something. I’m Dr. Heather Gessling.
I’m a family medicine physician. I am the chief operating officer for the medical team at the wellness company. We strive to base all of our decisions on science.
And the lack of unbiased science in the last two years is one of the catalysts that has brought about the wellness company. My role in the wellness company is going to be largely one of education and reeducation of our physician core, who are going to be administering medicine to large numbers of people, we hope, under our guidance, okay, we are not going to be telling them how to practice, but we are going to be telling them how to approach the patient in a different way. And that way involves returning to the first principles of medicine, which are the basic sciences.
Myself and the wellness company rely on data, scientific data to drive critical decisions. But importantly, we must consider all available sources of data, everything’s on the table, nutrition is basically what we put in our bodies. And you can imagine what we put in our bodies really matters.
And nutrition science is going to play a giant role in the data driven decisions and treatment plans that we devise at the wellness company. So I’m Dr. Jen Vandewater. I’m a doctor of pharmacy.
I graduated pharmacy college in 2006. I worked mostly for retail pharmacies. And through the years, I noticed that it became very robotic.
The pharmacy industry was no longer about patient care. And it became more filled prescriptions, give shots, anything you could do just to keep busy. It wasn’t there was no time for patient interaction and patient well being.
But while I was there, I was still seeing that people were on lots and lots and medications. So as I was watching doctors prescribe more and more, I thought, well, how can I assist and help the patient realize they may be on too many medications. Current medical practice is so completely off the rails, that it almost has to be destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up.
Because we have allowed ourselves to be taken over by pharma, for the most part. Most doctors just prescribe, they treat numbers as opposed to patients, they don’t reverse disease, they maintain chronic disease. This is all wrong.
Our approach is wrong, our approach to these diseases is wrong. It is all based on giving a pill to treat a number that that is what modern medicine has become. We are not treating patients, we are treating numbers.
It’s always been said that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. And if we can prevent an illness, we can prevent suffering, potentially hospitalization, progression of disease and death. So prevention is absolutely critical.
I see creating an integrated healthcare system that focuses on prevention versus being reactive. I see a company that’s going to continue to have amazing products and put third party products in our store and in our platform that are vetted by some of the best physicians in the world. What makes the wellness company’s approach unique is that we’re coming at different angles.
We’re not just coming into one area of health, we’re coming into education, we’re coming into training, even providers on what health actually looks like. We’ve been kind of confused and misguided through the years, so the wellness company is hitting it in a way that nobody else has hit it before. We have to go back to treating patients and getting them healthy again and maintaining that state of good health.
I truly am inspired to leave the world a better place than I came. I want to create that change. I want to help people.
Grow in what you know about your health. Your health is yours. You own your body.
We want to just guide you in that so you can make the right decisions for your health. And I’m excited to tell you that we’re here and we’re bringing you the best. Welcome to Daybreak with Ted Tibbitt and Michael Paul.
If you’d like to call us, our new studio line is 268-1017. Our email is newstalk107.1 at gmail.com. Sugar. 7-16, 16 minutes after seven o’clock.
Michael, I guess we got our sugar and our coffee. Gene Valentino’s with us. I guess so.
We’re glad to have you, Gene. Good morning. The hammer’s here.
I can’t find the sugar. Well, Maroon 5 is holding all the sugar right now. So anyway, hey, good morning to you.
You know, the big news of the day today, President Trump’s headed down to or headed up to Alaska to meet with Vladimir Putin in Anchorage. I was stationed in Alaska in the military. I don’t have you ever been to Alaska several times.
Yeah. What a what an interesting complement to the culture of this nation. Yeah, it’s a it’s a beautiful place.
I’ll tell you, Alaska, the most pristine place I’ve ever been. You know, if you want to see the northern lights, I mean, there’s no place better than Alaska. It’s a beautiful part of our country.
Vladimir Putin, of course, his ancestors owned that land, but they sold it for two cents an acre to us, which was thought at the time to be a bad deal. But apparently it turned out to be pretty good. Anyway, I just wanted to get your thoughts on on this meeting today.
And, you know, they’re going to talk about the war in Ukraine. And, you know, there’s not a lot of expectations out of this meeting. Apparently, this is the first of what President Trump says will be several meetings if if President Putin has his heart in the right place.
What do you think? Well, I think this is where Trump is the master at pre staging the show. It isn’t about the show itself. It’s the pre stage.
And he’s wheels up about 20 minutes ago and off he goes to it. Alaska. But Alaska removes Vladimir Zelensky from the from the theater.
It removes Europe and the entire EU operation from the theater of discussion on this. It gives Putin a refreshing, independent, maybe somewhat objective approach with Trump alone. Putin cannot claim that European influences are all over the place.
And he’s going to have trouble coming to a conclusion. Oh, no. Putin stands apart from the world with Trump on neutral ground.
Yeah. Alaska was something his ancestors were part of that may unknowingly have touched his art, his cold steel, feckless art. But nonetheless, it’s an attempt on Trump’s part to try to loosen the grip of Putin.
And Putin must do something on this historic day with Putin on American soil will determine Donald Trump will determine in short order, does Putin really want peace? And if he does, Michael, I think the flood gates will open. One thing Trump is smart about is those oligarchs behind Putin are richest son of a gun that have propped up Putin over the years. And they’re looking for a win.
They’re looking for a prize. So they’re going to want to see something. They’re going to want to see Putin pull off something because the Russian economy, Michael, is the worst it’s ever been.
It’s propped up with government funding, inflationary concerns. And with Trump threatening to cut off the oil supply and force Russia to buy from other sources only exacerbates the problem for his economy, because in fact, that’s what’s been funding. That’s what’s been funding the Ukraine war you mentioned earlier.
If you take away the funding source for the Ukraine war, Putin sees the dilemma he’s in that America now has him in his sights. And he’s got to do something to make it right with America. And Donald Trump has every reason in the world not to trust the guy.
This Putin has screwed us historically over the years. So is China. But we’re rolling up the sleeves, and we’re going to be as ugly as we need to be.
But we’re, you know, lead with the feather, but have the chainsaw ready to go. Yeah, I agree. This is a carrot and stick issue here.
And the carrot is that they may help those Russian oligarchs that prop Putin up by allowing them some access to rare minerals. Also, the oil business that Russia basically pins its economy on will be free to sell that oil in all of these countries that are now, President Trump is threatening to sanction the countries that buy oil from Russia. So there’s a lot there, carrot and stick.
And, you know, if he chooses the stick, you know, Putin’s days may be numbered. Because as you mentioned, the oligarchs are really are the ones that have sort of propped him up. And if he loses them, you know, there’s a good chance that Putin may be in early retirement.
Yeah, good observation. And I think Russia’s had enough. They want to mainstream somewhat.
We find society that have the very rich and the very poor separated from each other. The ones that fail first, they’re usually the socialistic tendencies or communist, true communist tendencies, Russian, China in particular. They are the ones that fail.
You know, it’s come a long way since the early days of tear down this wall and, and getting rid of the old USSR and turning it back into Russia. It’s turned out to be a governance that said, that’s beginning to realize it’s going to be mainstreamed to succeed. The world is seeing that instead of fighting America, succeed with America.
It’s, it’s a, it’s less death and it’s more prosperity. And that’s, that’s what’s happening. There’s too many people out there that are saying, I’m sorry, uh, this democracy thing needs a better look at because we have failed over the century.
It’s time for us to look at a new way, a new style and the, and the, the society that’s in worse shape than Russia is China. We haven’t mentioned it on this, on this episode, but, uh, Xi Jinping is in deep trouble with his economy and the threat of, uh, president Trump, uh, uh, cutting off the oil and, uh, making American oil and its distribution, um, primary in the world, along with natural gas, uh, China has been buying it from Venezuela and other third world nations. And it, they just get these other nations can not continue to support the demon anymore if they expect long-term success.
Yeah. I, I, I think China’s in, in deeper trouble. I think Russia would be smart to create some businesses, business alliances, some trade alliances.
I think they’d be very smart to back off on the insignificance of the Dunask and the Crimea regions of Ukraine and give it back to Ukraine. I think a feather, I’ll give them back the land and then do business with them. Look, why are we going to war? We go to war because people have something we want.
Well, if you do it masterfully the way Donald Trump has through trade deals, then both sides win and you don’t have to kill anybody, right? When everybody’s making money, nobody wants to go to war. Exactly. And that’s it.
Well, the only one that wants to go to war, the select few who think power is more important than the money. And, um, and those people are dying off. Those people realize we, the world is a collaborative entity, especially today with social media, um, uh, cryptocurrencies coming forward as an alternative money supply.
And, uh, the future of that, and then Donald Trump’s taken the lead on that, uh, not only with his sons, but himself, he’s, he has the Trump coin and he has a few other, um, initiatives he’s pushing out there to, uh, make sure we’re not lagging behind, but the leading edge of cryptocurrency. And, uh, we’ve got the most power. We’ve got the great greatest opportunity and investment in the future for just this reason is safe.
Nuclear nuclear power will, um, compliment oil and natural gas, uh, and fossil fuels of all types, uh, in the decades ahead, uh, to ensure we have the energy needed to, uh, do several things like mine coins and charging stations and so forth. Yeah. So much energy needed for AI, for, uh, Bitcoin and other coins, as you mentioned.
And so that’s something that we need to be looking at. Let’s change subjects for a minute. Uh, president Trump has declared an all out assault on crime in the nation’s Capitol, the federal city, Washington, DC.
And in my view, uh, Gene, and you may have a different outlook. It looks to me like the Democrats are fallen into a trap of defending crime. So what do you think about, what do you think about that? I think the end has come.
I think the Democrat party, uh, has, uh, has lost its way. I think some of the Democrats who are holding this crazy position like Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries and, uh, Maxine waters and the rest of the ilk are, are now figments of the past. I think the Republican party will be, should be on the lookout for the new dynamic, younger Democrats that replace it and replace them and do not support the crime issue that you just talked about.
It’s really a sad story because I think now the Democrats of the, the senior class like Bill and Hillary Clinton are going to find a way now to distinguish themselves from the far, far left craziness of a younger generation of Democrats. Why Michael, I fell out of my chair this morning. Hillary Clinton made an announcement.
She said, if Donald Trump can settle this war with the Putin as it pertains to Ukraine, she would nominate Trump for the Nobel peace prize. I nearly died. It tells me, it tells, and I had to double check it to make sure it was that, that it was accurate and it was, and the, the issue has to do with what, what is she going to need a pardon for? Yeah.
You know, it’s, it’s something how they have all of a sudden now sort of changed their views on a lot of things. You’ve got a lot of, a lot of high powered Democrats that were running a coup d’etat at the very top levels of the United States government before Donald Trump took office the first time. And it’s all coming out now and they all realize, I think that they are vulnerable.
And so when you see something like that from Hillary Clinton, you know that she has got her mind now on self-preservation. Oh yeah. Oh yeah.
That tells me the Department of National Intelligence, FBI, CIA, other leading leaders under Trump have gotten to the, gotten to the core, gotten to the poison in the swamp, as they say. And I think it’s soon to be revealed internally. But to your first point, I think crime is just another one of those distractions that George Soros is funding.
When you get to those deep intelligence wrongdoings, you’ll find that guy Soros in the midst of it as well, funding a lot of the confrontations, the protest and the, and the adversary political candidates that have no right to be running. I agree. You’ve got this communist Mandami.
This guy is dangerous. Now he’s going to get elected. You can believe that, that is going to happen.
But that might be, as I have heard some pundits say, a very good thing for the Republican party, because that will show them, that will show the people of America just exactly what you get when you have someone like that, that’s in charge. So anyway, we’re out of time, Gene. Thank you so much for joining us this week.
And hopefully we’ll get a chance to talk to you again next week. I look forward to it. See you again, guys.
