Chapter 4: How did the Oval Office meeting impact the Ukrainian peace deal?
Your soldiers have been unbelievably brave. We've given them great equipment, but somebody has to use the equipment. They've been unbelievably brave. This was supposed to be over very quickly. And here we are three years later. So I give tremendous credit to your generals and your soldiers and yourself.
Mr. Zelensky then taking the opportunity to plead his case in front of the American press.
Can President Trump, I hope yes, with some other allies to stop Putin withdraw these enemies, our enemy, withdraw these troops from our land? We will never accept just ceasefire. It will not work without security guarantees. Security guarantees, maybe the president is right about this document and other, but this document is not enough.
Mr. Trump repeatedly attempted to bring the focus of the conversation back to peace talks. Vice President J.D. Vance chiming in with a point about diplomacy, how the U.S. is changing course from isolating the Russians to engaging with them.
The meeting seemed to hit a significant turning point when Mr. Zelensky, who had been sighing and shaking his head repeatedly, addressed the vice president with this.
What kind of diplomacy, J.D., you are speaking about?
What do you mean? I'm talking about the kind of diplomacy that's going to end the destruction of your country. Mr. President, Mr. President, with respect, I think it's disrespectful for you to come into the Oval Office and try to litigate this in front of the American media.
All bets were off. Mr. Trump and Mr. Vance fired back at the Ukrainian leader, informing him of the stark reality of his position. Mr. Trump saying, you don't have any cards and you're gambling with World War III. Shortly after the cameras exited the room, the Ukrainian delegation exited the building with a message from Team Trump. Come back when you're ready for peace.
Democrats roundly criticizing President Trump for the outcome. The Sunday show is full of Dems laying blame for the collapse of the deal on President Trump.

Chapter 5: What are the political reactions to the Trump-Zelensky meeting?
It is absolutely shameful what is happening right now. The White House has become an arm of the Kremlin. And the entire pretext for that meeting yesterday was an attempt to rewrite history in order to sign a deal with Putin that hands Putin Ukraine.
That last voice was Connecticut Senator Chris Murphy, a Democrat. And here's some crucial context. Prior to President Zelensky's meeting at the White House, he met with a bipartisan group of senators, including Mr. Murphy. The New York Post reporting Democratic senators advised Mr. Zelensky not to take the deal.
Posting on X, Senator Murphy writing, quote, just finished a meeting with President Zelensky here in Washington. He confirmed that the Ukrainian people will not support a fake peace agreement where Putin gets everything he wants and there are no security arrangements for Ukraine.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio joining ABC this week, countering Democrat criticism, saying talks of security guarantees with the Russians are premature.
Ultimately, like any truce, like any peace agreement anywhere in the world, those things will have to be enforced. They'll have to be enduring. There have to be safeguards put in place. Everybody understands that. But it begins with the first step, and that is engaging them to see if it's even possible. Right now, there is no negotiation.
Shouldn't we at least try to see if there is a way to end this war in a way that's acceptable to both sides and is enduring and sustainable?
Journalist Mark Halperin teaming up with the pollster Wick, asking a group of 1,000 Americans who watched the exchange if they side more with the Trump administration's approach to diplomacy or Mr. Zelensky's. 49% say the Trump team has it right, just 37% siding with Mr. Zelensky. Immediately following the meeting, international leaders taking to social media in support of the Ukrainian president.

Chapter 6: What is the European response to the Oval Office fallout?
We need a very radical reset. And the reset has to consist of the United States and Ukraine getting back on the same page and President Zelensky giving his unequivocal backing to the initiative that President Trump is taking to end the war and to bring a just and lasting peace to Ukraine.
President Zelensky arrived in the UK on Saturday, convening with European and Canadian leaders on next steps for his country. Mr. Zelensky writing on Telegram, quote, We are all working together in Europe in order to find a basis for cooperation with America for a true peace and guaranteed security.
The UK and France attempting to repair the damage by preparing a peace deal to present to the United States. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announcing plans for European security guarantees yesterday.
We will go further to develop a coalition of the willing to defend a deal in Ukraine and to guarantee the peace. The UK is prepared to back this with boots on the ground and planes in the air together with others. Europe must do the heavy listing. But to support peace in our continent and to succeed, this effort must have strong U.S. backing.
It is unclear yet if President Zelensky can be swayed to accept European security guarantees without U.S. security guarantees as well. which Mr. Trump has maintained will be in the form of economic investment only. And now even that's unclear. Treasury Secretary Scott Besant told CBS Mr. Zelensky's actions in the Oval threw off the intended sequence of events.
First, the economic deal with Ukraine, then a peace deal with Russia. Is the deal still on the table or has President Trump instructed you to drop the project?
Margaret, it is impossible to have an economic deal without a peace deal. The sine qua non for an economic deal is that Ukrainian leadership wants a peace deal.
Sin qua non, Latin for the essential component. The Trump administration is not convinced at the moment that Mr. Zelensky actually wants peace. And without that, they cannot do business. Mr. Besson telling CBS at the moment there is no economic deal on the table. Mr. Zelensky told the BBC now he would like to do the minerals deal.
But Mr. Trump has not agreed to put it back on the table after what happened on Friday. Coming up, Elon Musk pulls back the curtain on Doge findings and disgraced New York Governor Andrew Cuomo makes his New York City mayoral campaign official. Thank you so much for having me.

Elon Musk joining Joe Rogan over the weekend for a three-hour conversation diving into Mr. Musk's work at the White House.
The official Doge website touts $65 billion in savings via canceled contracts, fraud detection, regulatory savings, and more. Recently, the Trump administration announced the cancellation of 90% of USAID's contracts. These contracts are typically with NGOs, non-governmental organizations, that receive the money in the form of grants.
President Trump recently highlighting what some of these organizations were up to.
$19 million for biodiversity conservation. In Nepal, $1.5 million for voter confidence. We want to give them confidence. In Liberia, $14 million for social cohesion in Mali. $2.5 million for inclusive democracies in South Africa.
Elon Musk calls the system a scam. Quote, maybe the biggest scam ever.
Small decisions result in multi-billion dollar outcomes. So we saw one person was getting $1.9 billion sent to their NGO, which basically got formed about a year ago and had no prior activity. Basically, the government-funded NGOs are a way to do things that would be illegal if they were the government, but are somehow made legal if it's sent to a so-called non-profit.
The Trump administration's cuts to USAID total about $60 billion. Elon Musk providing clarity to Doge discoveries on Social Security fraud.
We found just with a basic search of the Social Security database that there were 20 million dead people mocked as alive. What it looks like is that most of the fraud is not coming from Social Security payments directly, but because they're marked as alive in the Social Security database, that they can then get disability, unemployment, sort of fake medical payments, and other things.
