RUSSIA; WHATS NEXT? WHAT CAN HISTORY TEACH US? with Novelist Jeff Rovin - #869

The world watches as President Trump meets with Russian President Vladmir Putin in a high stakes summit in Alaska to discuss the future of the Ukraine War. Michael Savage speaks with Jeff Rovin, a renowned novelist behind some of the top selling Tom Clancy novels. Savage and Rovin speculate on how the war will come to an end. They discuss Rovin's 2017 novel 'The Dark Zone,' which eerily predicted the invasion of Ukraine. The conversation delves into historical comparisons, including Vladimir Putin's desire to reassemble the Soviet Union and the impacts of political moves, as seen in the Cuban Missile Crisis. Additionally, the discussion touches on misinformation, the difficulty of separating propaganda from reality, and the influence of media narratives. They also reflect on the societal and psychological effects of continuous global crises, including the parallels with past fears during the Cold War era.
