This week, both Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump met with President Zelensky of Ukraine. We prepared a compilation here on the Midas Touch Network to show you the contrast that existed. And boy, is the contrast stark. Let me just show you this. This is a must-see. Let's play it. It should stop, and the president wants it to stop, and I'm sure President Putin wants it to stop. Putin started this war, and he could end it tomorrow if he simply withdrew his troops from Ukraine's sovereign territory. Of course, he has demonstrated no intention of doing that. Instead, he continues to assault civilian infrastructure and terrorize the people of Ukraine. Do you think that Ukraine should turn over some of its own land to Russia in order to end the war?

We'll see what happens. There are some in my country who would instead force Ukraine to give up large parts of its sovereign territory, who would demand that Ukraine accept neutrality and would require Ukraine to forego security relationships with other nations. These proposals are the same of those of Putin. And let us be clear, they are not proposals for peace. Instead, they are proposals for surrender, which is dangerous and unacceptable. So we have a very good relationship, and I also have a very good relationship as you know with President Putin and I think if we win I think we're gonna get it resolved very quickly very work I really think we're gonna get it I hope we have

more good relations yeah but you know it takes two to tango you know and President Zelensky it is good to see you again. This is our seventh visit together, and welcome back to Washington, D.C. As I have made clear on our six previous meetings and throughout Putin's brutal aggression and war against Ukraine, my support for the people of Ukraine is unwavering. I have been proud to stand with Ukraine. I will continue to stand with Ukraine and I will work to ensure Ukraine prevails in this war. You know, it should be noted, it wasn't really in that compilation where you see the contrast between how Vice President Kamala Harris is handling the situation versus Donald Trump.

But when Donald Trump was interacting, or whatever you even want to call it, with Zelensky, it looked like he was trying to bully and kind of mock and humiliate Zelensky, in my opinion. You have Donald Trump basically saying, everybody knows there was an impeachment hoax against me, and Russia, Russia, Russia, and I did nothing wrong. I mean, just embarrassing the United States of America on a world stage. Again, show you that interaction, play the clip. And I will say I've had a great relationship. It was very honorable. I don't even know if you know this, but when they did the impeachment hoax, it was a hoax, just a Democrat hoax, which we won. But one of the reasons we won it so easily is that when the president was asked, it was over a phone call with the president.

And he said he could have grandstanded and played cute. And he didn't do that. He said President Trump did absolutely nothing wrong. He said it loud and clear. And the impeachment hoax died right there. He could have said, well, I don't know. I don't know. And I never even told you this, to be honest.

But he was like a piece of steel. He said, President Trump did nothing wrong. We had a very nice call. He congratulated me on his victory. You just won. And I remember that. I remember that. He could have played cute and he didn't play cute.

And so I appreciated that. So we have a very good relationship. And I also have a very good relationship, as you know, with President Putin. And I think if we win, I think we're gonna get a result.

Zelensky and the Republicans in the House refused to meet with Zelensky. And Zelensky wanted to meet with the political leaders on behalf of Democrats, Republicans, and independents, not even political leaders, just speak to the factory workers like those in Scranton who are manufacturing weapons that are being used for Ukraine to protect itself against Russia's unlawful invasion. But MAGA Mike Johnson refused to have the House GOP meet with Zelensky, and Donald Trump initially refused to meet with him. But then when Zelensky went to a factory

in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and Governor Shapiro, governor of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, was there touring one of these factories, it's boosted the economy as well for Scranton. As a result, Maga Mike Johnson said that the ambassador to the United States for Ukraine must resign.

This was political and now they said this was election interference. Here, play this clip. You were calling on President Zelensky to fire Ambassador Mark Harbaugh. Could you explain this and also tell what if she wouldn't be fired? Well, listen, I sent a letter to President Zelensky today because the ambassador crossed the line, and I think she involved him in that. They made a campaign stop on behalf of the Democratic Party and effectively have given a tacit endorsement to Kamala Harris.

That's not what we need our allies to be doing or any foreign nation. I think it's election interference, and I think it's an unforgivable trespass, and I think the ambassador needs to take responsibility for that and be terminated. So I asked him to do that immediately. And I think that's an important question. Speaker Mike Johnson then sent a letter calling on Ukrainian President Zelensky to fire Ukraine's ambassador to the United States. And this comes as Zelensky will meet with Senate leaders, but Johnson did not want to meet with him. Here's the letter from MAGA Mike Johnson that he sent on September 25th. Dear President Zelensky, I demand that you immediately fire Ukraine's ambassador to the United States.

As you have said, Ukrainians have tried to avoid being captured by American domestic politics and influencing the choices of the American people ahead of the November election. Clearly, that objective was abandoned this week when the ambassador organized an event in which he toured an American manufacturing site. The facility was in a politically contested battleground state, was led by a top political surrogate for Kamala Harris and failed to include a single Republican because, on purpose, no Republicans were invited. By the way, this is coming from someone who was refusing to meet with President Zelensky. Maga Mike Johnson goes on to say, the tour was clearly a partisan campaign event designed to help Democrats and is clearly election interference. This short sighted and intentionally political move has caused Republicans to lose trust in the ambassador's ability to fairly and effectively serve as a diplomat in this country.

She should be removed from her post immediately. Additionally, as I have clearly stated in the past, all foreign nations should avoid opining or interfering in American domestic politics. Support for ending Russia's war against Ukraine continues to be bipartisan, but our relationship is unnecessarily tested and needlessly tarnished when the candidates at the top of the Republican presidential ticket are targeted in the media by officials in your government, which is, again, not the true at all. And you see they're working the reps right there. Here's what MAGA Mike Johnson was whining about. Zelensky visiting the Scranton Army ammunition plant in, where the Howitzer rounds are being manufactured.

Here, play this clip. And then I think it's important to show you this. This is from the new Lev Parnas documentary that's out there. And Lev released this footage right here. And it shows over here how Donald Trump, previously when he was in office, what led him to want to fire the Ukrainian ambassador. Lev didn't even know what he was talking about. Lev was like we need to fire you know the ambassador they don't like you and then just just watch this whole interaction it's pretty powerful stuff here play this clip how long have you created last in a fight with Russia Ukraine yes the biggest problem there I think we got to get rid of the ambassador. She's still left over from the Clinton administration.

You were the ambassador, were you Ukraine? Get rid of her, okay? Get her out of the room. Take her out, okay? And finally, here's an ad that Vice President Kamala Harris is currently running. Play this clip. When Mongol warriors stormed Ukraine, Kiev's church bells rang a night warning. They rang again when Ukrainians rallied for democracy. Today, they're warning the world

of Putin's threat to freedom. Yet Donald Trump embraces Putin. I like Putin. He likes me. He picked J.D. Vance. I don't really care what happens to Ukraine. But Kamala Harris cares. She knows standing up to Putin keeps America safe. Here's another ad that she's running here. Play this clip. Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall. And when one man is enslaved, all are not free. American presidents, Republican and Democrat,

have always defied Russia's communist dictators and defended American ideals. Kamala Harris gets this. If we stand by while an aggressor invades its neighbor with impunity, they will keep going. Kamala Harris will stand up to Putin, protect our allies, and keep us safe. Tell me what you think.
