Great show as always, Mahdi. Timothy Snyder made an excellent guest by explaining how Putin followed philosopher Ivan Llyin and became who he is today. Look forward to reading Mr. Snyder's book, Road to Freedom. Thanks!

Interesting piece. The footage of Putin laying flowers looks like the occasion he laid flowers at Solzhenitsyn’s grave. It would be worth checking that. Thanks for your reportage.

Quiet important : for the first time a NATO general (French!) says that we should throw missiles (tomahawk kind) against the Russian troups which specifically bombs civilian in Ukraine. nitter.vloup.ch/dariusrochebin/s…
Un général français franchit le pas pour la 1ère fois sur @LCI: pas de no-fly zone, mais une action militaire directe contre les Russes. Ex-no 4 dans la chaîne OTAN, le général Yakovleff: «Une batterie russe qui a tiré sur des civils à Marioupol prend 4 Tomahaw.» Contredit … 1/2

Let's also not forget this parasite, Dugin Alexander. Russian fascism, which still supports far right cults like FVD in the Netherlands with both money and Russian assets like Laugland, is the biggest disease of our time, and it doesn't want to stop after Ukraine. @mehdirhasan

Don't forget Alexander #Dugin, #Putin's still living favorite #fascist philosopher, who advocates killing Ukrainians and #genocide.

Add a pinch of Dugin and it’s a perfect swill of toxic epic failure
