things even more corrupt that's what western help for ukraine has resulted in since 2014 go ahead alex and that's absolutely correct i mean beat it can we just say that the great problem in ukraine ever since it gained independence from the soviet union has been corruption but of course after 2014 you had a situation where corruption had been extremely widespread to a situation where corruption became the organizing principle of ukrainian politics because that wall's what the new ukrainian government that was installed in 2014 remember it was not installed peacefully or legitimately it was installed viral occur so that almost by definition made it likely that it would be more corrupt and of course overall and with lots of very violent men in ukraine many of them behaving very illegally now what then happened is you had this deeply corrupt system in ukraine vast sums of money was thrown out the european union i said i think $17000000000.00 already is really i have that they are and they have committed to providing it with $25000000000.00 there was $3000000000.00 in it go out x. where do

you know corrupt it has a salutary alex but what happens when corrupt what what's happened also here is that because of this commercial in financial corruption it delves very easily into political corruption because ukraine is the epicenter of so much of what we call russia gate which by the way russia gave there's not much russia in russia gate but there's a lot of ukraine in ukraine gate. and we're going to be a mother who had great paul martin for good point you know when we 1st arrived scandalous articles about him in the washington post by and have a warm august basically they all forgot to mention that he didn't do anything in russia he did everything in ukraine and go to the d n c and he was i'm sorrier but at least he walked on his specialty he was a political consultant he got millions for that but the bidens or chameleons for something he didn't understand here showing him because his father's name but he was his father son he didn't understand anything in their straight or in energy where did you come to buy them get education in energy star gets you know so the whole stor

troops, alex. syrian rebels under turkish demand, but the turks have most of the artillery, and that it does look like it was an artillery or a mortar strike. so, yes, president trump withdrew special forces from the actual borderline, but there are still u.s. troops in that area, and of course, about 1,000 u.s. troops in syria overall. meanwhile, today, more fierce fighting on day four. it's now street to street. in one town, the death toll clearly rising, although the figures are contested. the turkish defense ministry said they have killed more than 400 kurdish fighters. the kurdish red crescent saying at least 60 civilians have been counted as dead, and the turks are pushing on, in spite of an international backlash. the u.s. warning that its relations with turkey are in grave danger. germany has stopped arms sales to turkey. the arab league has condemned it for its invasion of arab lands, but turkey pushes on. president erdogan defiant, saying, we will not listen to what anybody says and we wi

alex: that's a fair criticism.do need to acknowledge the death of baghdadi was not president trump's personal doing. he gave the order but u.s. servicemen and women that accomplished that mission. the same for the death of osama bin laden. the facts are that the president, -- the president's benefite those orders politically. i think president trump will enjoy a bump in his polling this week after baghdadi's death. host: the president doing this with relatively new leadership in place in mark esper as the secretary of defense and mark millie as the noon chairman of joint chiefs. alex: leadership is always changing these days. those guys have been around for a while. i don't think those leadership changes were turbulent or dramatic for the pentagon and for military services. host: here's jr in lorton, virginia. on the republican line. i just wanted to make a few comments. army.serving and our i've been enlisted in a program it's really truly breaks my heart to see some of these words between some of the callers that
