About this episode
Despite the extreme dangers, limited medical care, and a lack of proper maternity support, pregnant Ukrainian soldiers are actively serving on the front lines, with many framing their service as fighting for both their country and their children's future. The New York Times presented these stories as examples of resilience and feminist empowerment, though guest host Misty Winston and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger mock the framing as propaganda and a sign of military desperation. Testimonies from soldiers describe terrifying conditions, from daily shelling to struggling with prenatal care in combat zones, while some returned to service shortly after giving birth. The story highlights just how desperate the Ukrainian military situation has become. Plus segments on the likely implementation of Minority Report-inspired "pre-crime" technology to catch school shooters, Beverly Hills voting to fly the Israeli flag at area schools and the latest example of the New York Times' shameless caping for Israel. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Jimmy Dore!
