Dave Smith appeared as a guest on Rogan’s show in late September where the two discussed among other things the real reasons that Russia invaded Ukraine, in contradiction of the prevailing mainstream narrative. “This thing with Russia is the craziest thing in the world. The idea that we’re actually flirting with a nuclear conflict with Russia?…We’ll destroy the human species if we do this. And yet there’s this war right on Russia’s border. And there’s no effort to negotiate going on. There’s no effort.”

The Ukrainian government is touting a weekend advance in the county’s east at an “astonishing” rate as the major counteroffensive announced by Kiev over a week ago continues. On Saturday the Russian military issued a rare acknowledgement of a “regrouping” of its forces in Kharkiv Oblast. Kiev and its Western backers are taking the statement as an admission of retreat.
