## About this episode

President Volodymyr Zelensky pleaded with the U.S. Congress for a no-fly zone and MiG-29 fighter jets as Russian munitions struck Chernigiv. The request highlights a growing rift within NATO, as Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Press Secretary Jen Psaki warn that direct aerial intervention would trigger a global conflict. Meanwhile, Senator Lindsey Graham faces bipartisan backlash after publicly suggesting the assassination of Vladimir Putin.

Secondary developments include the Russian seizure of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant and reports of the Azov Battalion defending Mariupol. Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited the Polish border to manage a refugee crisis expected to reach one million people, while former intelligence officer Scott Ritter analyzed the logistical impossibility of maintaining Ukrainian airbase infrastructure. In the United States, gas prices hit a national average of $4.00 per gallon as Russia halted fertilizer exports, threatening global food security. Concurrently, the Sackler family reached a $6 billion settlement for the opioid crisis while Austin, Texas, reported a mass fentanyl overdose event.

Adam Curry and John C. Dvorak deconstruct the shift from pandemic narratives to war propaganda, noting the irony of Pravda Brewing Company switching from craft beer to Molotov cocktails. The hosts also examine the physical tics of televangelist Jimmy Swaggart and the curious case of WNBA star Brittany Griner's arrest in Moscow. Executive Producer Jim Schneeberger is named Baron of Shotziland as the show maintains its value-for-value model.
