Live from the Civic Media World Headquarters in Madison, Wisconsin, it's the Todd Alba Show.
And now, pursuing truth wherever it may lead, here's your host, Todd Alba.
Across Wisconsin on the Civic Media Radio Network.
and streaming worldwide on the Civic Media app.
Good afternoon, everybody.
I'm Todd Albault, long list for Aaron Zommer as our producer and engineer.
It is six past the hour of one o'clock on the Civic Media radio network on this Friday, TGIF February 28th, 2025.
It is a great day to be a Wisconsinite sunny skies downtown Madison here at the World Headquarters.
Not so great day to be an American, quite frankly.
Ongoing special coverage of our show here coming up at the bottom of the hour.
We will Try to lighten that we will lighten things up a bit Peter Rapine managing editor of E palms world will be in with a week in review We spent the first half hour of this program at noon till 12 30 bringing you the direct on Uncut cuts The vocal the verbal coverage
Audio coverage, there's the word.
Of an unprecedented newser, gaggle they call it, where the President of the United States is in the Oval Office, Vice President Vance was on the couch and in the other chair beside the fireplace was the President of Ukraine Zelensky.
We had a piece we were going to read for you, by the way, on this deal.
That's why Zelensky came to the United States.
to sign a deal on minerals today.
Ukraine has a lot of great wealth, a graphite, titanium, lithium, uranium, essential stuff for all sorts of electronics and tech products.
And Trump had said, look, I'll sign this.
He basically bullied Zelensky into saying, look, give us a bunch of your mineral rights and cash, or what, take them out to cash.
And you know what will allow companies to go over there and do this private US companies and since there's Americans there Well, yeah, we'll we're not gonna let our Americans get blown up.
So, you know, there'll be some military coverage if you do this What it really is what it comes down to for Trump as always about the Benjamins Democracy and freedom are really non-essential to Donald Trump But Ukraine would pay dearly
and still would not have been secure from Putin's takeover.
But that deal was squashed about an hour ago when they had this gaggle, this press event in the Oval Office, and Donald Trump and JD Vance verbally assaulted the president of Ukraine, a sworn ally of the U.S.
And Trump defended Vladimir Putin.
Tchuzelinsky's face.
and monished him, saying, quote, Putin went through a hell of a lot with me, unquote, said that Zelensky didn't have the cards to demand anything.
After about a 20 minute event, they went behind.
And by the way, the U.S.
ambassador to Ukraine put their heads in their hand during this.
Marco Rubio, the secretary of state,
looking straight ahead like he just had shock treatment.
Republican members of Congress saying that Trump missed on all accounts.
They went into it, talked about this privately and shortly about 15 minutes later, it was called off.
Zelensky has left the White House and they did not, they did not sign the mineral deal in the Oval Office or anywhere else.
And here now one word Sometimes words can say a lot They say a picture is worth a thousand words.
Sometimes it just takes a word This may be the most telling part of this entire event today unprecedented event An advisor to Russian president Vladimir Putin reacted to the video of the heated Oval Office exchange
between Ukrainian Presidents Linsky and U.S.
President Donald Trump with one word.
Quote.
Historic.
Unquote.
Krill Dimensiev, a special envoy to Putin, put that on X moments ago.
He is the CEO of the Russian Direct Investment Fund and attended the recent discussions between the U.S.
and Russia.
about Saudi Arabia or about Ukraine in Saudi Arabia.
The Russians don't fear anything anymore.
Calling it historic, what just happened.
Historic in the sense, we have never seen a president of the United States admonish an ally of the US to their face in the Oval Office.
while at the same time defending a sworn enemy in a dictator like Vladimir Putin.
Remember Putin is a former KGB.
And if Matt Flynn were here, I'm sure he knows the history.
He could, he could tell me exactly who it was.
If Joe is still listening and she could call it, I'm sure she knows.
I can't remember whether it was Khrushchev or who.
What are the former Soviet leaders of the, of the old Soviet Union now Russia?
One said, maybe it was Stalin, said, eventually we will defeat the United States of America and we'll never fire a shot.
They took a huge step towards that today in the Oval Office.
855-752-4842, 855-752-4842.
I want to read just a couple of the texts here that are coming in on the text line.
I'm going to pull up my phones.
My eyes are a little bit better.
I got to get new glasses summers.
Brian listening to Milwaukee says, I'm sorry.
If you thought the reality show, the apprentice was good.
Just wait for the new installment called the dictator.
This is like a nightmare of a reality show.
And we, the American people are all players in this twisted game.
That's Brian from Milwaukee.
Brian also saying this is a sad day for America.
I feel like I want to vomit.
I think that describes a lot of us.
Kurt Listing on WMDX in Madison says it's called extortion.
Steve Listing on WMDX in Madison says, Todd, if you want to know, this was all by design by Trump and Putin.
No sign of a deal will give less help, if any, from us in protection and protect Putin's free reign.
He'll take it all.
That's a great point, Steve.
You have to wonder whether Trump ever intended to sign this deal at all or whether this was all.
I mean, Trump said in this, in this press event, he said, well, this is going to be great for TV.
You have to wonder if Trump had any intent to sign this at all, or if it was just simply to get Zelensky to go around the world and then humiliate him on international television on Putin's behalf.
Other textures coming in fast and furious right now.
I'm just trying to get to a few of them Steve and more and WMDX says we should all be praying for a Zalinsky safe return.
I agree What else do we have here Just checking the list here Jack in Racine listening on WAU case has a present met with two mafia thugs
Or as Zelensky met with two mafia thugs, our country is now aligned with a murderous dictator over a democracy fighting for its life.
Long live Ukraine.
Matt in Middleton, Trump has known Russian oligarchs for decades as they bailed him out in the late 80s.
One more here.
Listener in McGwanaggo, Trump is evil.
He will take us into war and blame Zelensky and probably Biden.
8 5 5 7 5 2 4 8 4 2 8 5 5 7 5 2 4 8 4 2 one more texture a brand-new texture We appreciate you says contact Congressman Van Orton's office Tell him to start house proceedings against Trump and Vance and to evoke the 25th amendment to be a real patriot look I sure I I hope and that would be great I Just don't have any confidence right now that the Republican Party is going to do anything to stop this
Let's go to the phone lines.
Wisco, Paul, Wisco, thanks for calling.
What's
up?
Thanks for having us on today, Todd.
I was in the car listening to it and I couldn't believe it.
My wife was with me and she couldn't believe it.
An American president pretty much sided with Russia and everything.
And we both were talking about anything that was set up.
And this was made for Putin.
And I hope he does make it back because he's a moving target now.
I never in my life I grew up is believing Russia was a threat.
And that's what our defense has always been against with nukes and stuff.
Also, I want to get your take on this thing.
Well, this guy, no republicans going to go against Trump.
They're scared to death of them.
They've already proved with the liquidation of the federal government
Um, they're scared to death of them and they won't lift a finger.
But if you're living in Germany or anywhere in needle,
are
you ready to arm yourself?
I mean, I'll just leave it with that.
You've got to be, you've got to be
holy Christ.
Thank you.
Thank you, Mr. Paul.
I want to go to our friend, ongoing contributor.
We appreciate him listening and calling in.
He was on the program to start the week, did not anticipate him calling in at the end of the week, but I'm so glad he did.
He is a former chairman of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, an attorney, a Navy veteran, and an author.
Our friend, Matt Flynn.
Matt, thanks so much for calling in.
What have you got for us, my friend?
we
it uh the first we played it the first we spent the first half hour we play the majority of it in real time without interruption or commentary so the people could listen to themselves we've been talking about it ever since but go ahead matt
yeah great so i just want to say from my perspective from the perspective a lot of people calling me remember one thing donald trump does not
get to speak for a change of American policy and screwing our allies after 250 years just by his say so.
He said these things.
It's very important that everybody listening to your show know that we have our own foreign policy.
It's an American foreign policy.
We stand for freedom and democracy.
We stand by our allies.
What he did was shameful.
Donald Trump has been compromised.
He's frightened of Vladimir Putin.
and because of his own personal sexual indiscretions and the steel report, whatever else is on him, that does not permit him to snap his fingers and turn and stab an ally in the back.
I just wanted you to hear that from me, and I'm channeling a number of texts and calls I've been getting.
It's the most disturbing damn thing I think I've seen in public life in a long time, Todd.
I'm very glad that you're on it.
I'm very glad that you played it.
But everybody listening called the Ukrainian Embassy.
call all of our allies' embassies, call their consulates in Chicago, and tell them, we stand with you, we stand with democracy, Donald Trump is a traitor.
Matt, can you stay with us for the break?
I just want a couple more minutes with you if we can, if you have time, my friend.
Sure, happy to do it.
Matt Flynn's going to stand by.
Always great to hear from him.
We have your phone calls as well.
Don't go anywhere.
It's a special edition covering an unprecedented report.
Welcome back to the Taliban show in the Civic Media Ready Network, a special edition on this Friday, February 28th, 21 past the hour of one o'clock.
Our friend, ongoing contributor, he is a two-time chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin.
An attorney and author and a U.S.
Naval veteran, Matt Flynn, is on this program.
We started the week with Matt.
We had no intention, did not guess.
that we would be having Matt back on, but so thankful that he is in this unprecedented moment.
Matt, you're always fond of saying history being made every moment of every day.
There is no bigger front line to history than what happened in the Oval Office today, where the sitting President of the United States and Vice President of the United States dress down, and that's putting it mildly, I would say, verbally assaulted the President of Ukraine, a sworn U.S.
ally in the Oval Office.
And I'm quoting
Trump today, looking at Zelensky saying, quote, Putin went through a hell of a lot with me, unquote, defended the dictator of Vladimir Putin to Zelensky's face.
Zelensky ended up there, went back into a back room to they were going to sign this mineral rights deal.
And now there is reporting that it fell apart.
as would be expected, and Zelensky left the White House without signing the deal.
A couple of speed round questions for you, my friend Matt Flynn.
Number one, do you think that Zelensky was set up?
Do you think that Putin never intended to sign this in the first place, but just won the circus?
couple of... Freudian
Go ahead.
really did.
He
But he's saying, no.
Yeah, you know, I'm grateful for blah, blah, blah.
Then they were only supposed to go back to sign a document that had already been drafted.
Already approved.
It was a ministerial act.
You just assign it in private and go out and say we signed it the minute they got off camera Remember Trump said this is great television.
He did it for television They go back in and Trump says get the hell out
of
here and walks away and then you know and then you can't stay in the White House if the president doesn't want you there so Zelensky is thrown out
Yes, it was a setup.
And one of the things that was most disgusting was what a sycophant, uh, Vance is.
I mean, he just sat there lying and, uh, attacking and there's a one, two.
First of all, why was Vance there?
That is, you know,
you're
Is it am I overstating this Matt?
You know history so well It feels like to me as someone who's been watching these things since the last year of Nixon it feels to me this is a Consequential a monumental a historical moment today in the White House Put Trump aside look at the office of the president on states in our country
This sends a chilling signal, in my opinion, to all of the US allies around the country, and this could be a global moment of change, and not for the good, I might add.
Can you imagine George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Franklin Roosevelt doing anything like this in public?
No.
This guy is a shyster.
Yeah, no.
And so if you are in the UK right now, if you're in Germany, if you're in France, Italy,
Spain, all of the nations that really, these are our ancestors for a lot of us in this country.
They're looking at this and then they go, well, what is Trump going to do if Putin goes into Moldova?
He's already in Moldova.
He has the transvestary, it's called a slice of land.
He's already in Georgia.
What if he goes into Estonia and says, I'm going to liberate the eastern third, which is Russian speaking.
They're a member of NATO.
This guy, Trump, is servile to Putin.
He's afraid of Putin.
We have a Manchurian candidate in the White House, and he has been compromised to steal a report.
Not just that, they've been funded for something like 20, 30 years, more than 30 years, because banks won't give him money.
This has never been done before in American history.
And if something isn't done right now, we can't wait around four more years for the next president.
I think we're, I
think we're approaching a critical point in American history.
I no longer believe that it's a guarantee there will be midterm elections.
You know, but I think that too much has already happened.
And the only thing left in my opinion, Matt, with hope is that so far, by and large, the courts have held.
If those fall, Matt, I don't know that we can maintain democracy in America.
Right, and remember something, even in this last election, people with a Russian address were making bomb threats to Black precincts, to Navajo precincts, all the Democratic precincts.
There will be interference with the midterms.
You're absolutely right.
We have a free press still, and we have free judiciary by and large.
They will hold.
However,
if
This is a message to everybody out there.
You're Americans.
Your vote is being overridden.
This guy is simply trying to change the entire country.
Don't stand for it.
I don't care if you're Republican or not, or a Democrat or independent.
Don't stand for it.
Get out and speak out.
Call our allies and their embassies and tell them we stand with them.
Tell them that Trump has betrayed the United States.
You can't just sit back because if you turn around, it's very, very hard to restore democracy.
It certainly is matt always appreciate your perspective.
You're welcome here anytime my friend Thanks for taking a part of your friday to call in.
We value you and we thank you my friend.
Thank you so much Thank you
shows always.
Thank you.
Let's go quickly today.
I'll ask gosh now be ISS daily been waiting for a long time if you could get to do it quickly go ahead, sir
Okay, Todd two quick things one is Khrushchev said he would bury us alive while he was banging his shoe on the desk
And the
other thing is he said we would do it within I am embarrassed
to be an American today.
Thank
you.
Thank you, Dale.
Appreciate it.
We have time to get to Dick really quickly.
Dick, WMDX, if you can do it in 30 seconds.
Dick, go ahead.
I'd have to just say that this country made the biggest mistake in its history on the 5th of November of last year, and I've never seen anything so pathetic in my life.
Can you imagine if FDR would have tried to distort Churchill during one lease like this?
Oh, well, you're not...
Survival enough to us and you're not thanking us enough.
Can you imagine that?
And by the way, I don't like your cigars or something.
This is ridiculous.
Yeah, it really is it.
So thank you very much to appreciate it.
It is not a great day for America, not a great day for foreign policy.
But as Matt Flynn said, call the Ali as well as others.
Here's the number again.
If you want to call the U.S.
Embassy, Ukrainian Embassy in Washington, D.C.
202-349.
2963.
202.

And yes, trying to have some fun doing it.
Welcome back to the Town Hall Ball Show on the Civic Media Ready Network Zomers on the board on this TGIF edition, 34 minutes past the hour of one o'clock on February 28th.
It's been a day, and I'm sure there are civic media programs will continue to follow this breaking news of the day unprecedented event in the Oval Office between Trump, Vance, and Zelensky.
President Zelensky of Ukraine has now left the White House.
No deal on the middle rights being signed.
And these ramifications will most likely be felt around the world for some time to come.
The civic media will continue to cover it.
We will pick it up on Monday.
Assuming we still have a country.
I only say that half jokingly, by the way.
Big shout out to Kathy.
up in Shell Lake, Wisconsin, a first-time listener to the show today, saying she could not believe the exchange she heard earlier between Trump fans and Zelensky.
She says of Trump and fans, quote, disgusting.
I would agree, Kathy.
Big shout out to Shell Lake.
My oldest godson, Alex, his partner, girlfriend, Keegan is from Shell Lake.
So a beautiful part of the world.
We go now as we do every other Friday.
to lighten things up a bit.
We go out to beautiful Brooklyn, not Brooklyn, Wisconsin, of which there is one.
We go to the Brooklyn, New York, in New York City.
The one, the only, the managing editor of eBombs World, Peter Rapine.
Peter, welcome back to the show.
We understand you were feeling a little under the weather last week.
The biggest thing that listeners want to know, how are
there antibiotic requirements required to make you feel better?
No.
No,
But I'm good.
You look fantastic as you most of the time, too.
You look great.
You have a trophy behind you.
Did you win something recently?
Were you in a competition?
A writing

Bowling's big in Wisconsin.
That's fantastic.
Okay.
All right.
Very good.
Bowling Stolen Valor.
Well, very good, Peter.
We glad you got some tea.
Glad you're feeling are feeling better.
Uh, uh, CP filled in last week and he did a great job.
But, but you know, people, people say we like Peter on these things because you bring perspective and we love having you as well.
As a reminder now, uh, Peter and all the great folks at epombsworld.com where you can find these.
This is not fiction.
This is not made up.
These are real stories of real wacky humans doing actual wacky things
All right first headline Peter from e-palms world
Well, Door Dash Driver gets caught shooting his shot with a customer's wife.
Please explain.
You have my attention.
people.
Really?
I've learned something already today, Shooters Shoot, meaning that, you know, if you want a date, you got to take your shot.
Well,
miss
don't take.
Thank you, Wayne Grisky.
And
right, here we go.
The Door Dash Driver.
Hi, man.
What's up, boy?
I'm sorry, I just dropped off in order for a girl.
I was just wondering, I had a question while I was driving away.
Is she a single
not?
I think her name's Sarah.
Esther?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's my wife.
I'm sorry, man.
Really, I'm sorry.
Take care.
All right.
That was fantastic.
Now, I have so many questions.
Number one.
God bless the guy for having the onions to go back there in the first place, right?
I mean, I would say maybe it's a little creepy.
I don't think women want to get hit on by their Uber or like DoorDash drivers.
So like, if you're a DoorDash driver and you deliver a meal to a pretty girl, just go home.
Don't drive back.
You're not invited to do this.
I think the homeowner was really nice because you could have been like, dude, get off my property.
That's my
freaking
He must have a
still, there's a small amount, because I'm a timid person.
And so there's a small amount of, you know what, at least as the kids say, he shot his shot.
He took a
Don't take the chance.
In today's world, it could have gone horribly, horribly wrong.
could have been I was
driver That's a perfect that's exactly what we're looking for that is a great way to kick off today's We can review with Peter right by the E-pom's world Peter next headline
gets arrested for trying to use cop car like an Uber.
All right.
This is another
Please go ahead.
This one is pretty much how it sounds.
It's a video from inside of a cop car where a college student who's not drunk, at least it doesn't seem drunk, opens the door and pops his seat and then is sitting there for like a minute waiting for the cop to come back.
When the cop does get back in the car, the girl is tapping on the glass, saying, hey, hey, hey, could you like take me to the bar?
To which the cop responds, what the hell are you doing in my car?
Now do we have the audio?
All right, so here it is.
First you'll hear
All right, here we go.
out of it.
door!
Both of you get over
now.
Right.
They collared themselves.
They just put themselves in the back.
And I love the fact that the girl says the girl assures the police officer.
I'm of age.
I'm of age.
Not like, hey, I'm in the back of your cop car for some reason.
Like, I don't know.
Honestly, I hope the three of us go out into our weekends with as much confidence as that girl.
Right.
I think everyone listening, we should all try to embody her.
Clearly, she's living in a world of her own creation.
That seems to be today's through line so far is confidence.
Whether you're a door dash driver or the girl in the back of a cop car.
Well, that was we know what state that was from or anywhere like that.
No, we don't.
Somewhere in America, somewhere in America, the highways and byways.
Peter Ray Pine with his video camera, with his Sony VHS always rolling for instance.
Sorry, that's great.
Peter Ray Pine of Epom's World.
What is our next
Man says he's manipulating reality to win on scratch off lottery tickets.
All right.
And who amongst us hasn't, you know, felt like, you know, why not and bought a scratch off lottery ticket?
But no one is having quite the luck that this guy is.
It's a.
It's an account on TikTok, and it's, you know, middle-aged man who is showing off his, I don't know exactly what to call it, because he doesn't really devolve, you know, devolve, tell us his secret.
But he talks about how he spent like $20 on a Lotto ticket, lost.
Oh, like his method.
There's a method.
And he's bragging about this.
Are we going to play a little bit of this summer?
Is it appropriate?
Can we play?
Because I look at the guy, and it looks like something on a Saturday Night Live, where he has a t-shirt that's kind of sort of tie dye, but it's all just like in blue and gray, and it's very monochrome.
And then the background behind him on the wall is the basically same color and pattern.
It looks goofy.
All right, let's play a little bit.
Here we go.
Here's this guy.
Chinese zodiac killer and I just want to give a quick update on my progress at manipulating reality to win on scratch off today about a $20 lottery ticket lost so about this $10 lottery ticket won 200 bucks won 50 bucks a few times the last week and then a hundred bucks a few days ago 200 bucks now as I said in my very first video the series my power is growing
Chinese zodiac killer is that what he calls himself
count
That's fantastic.
Uh, yeah.
Well, uh, well, a lottery ticket lost, bought another one at once.
Right there.
That's my power.
Right.
No, we don't but I just fight.
I mean this just goes to my opinion You guys are both Rapunzel bombers are younger than me.
You're more astute with pop culture But this is it goes to show me any schmuck could get a kid get a tiktok or whatever and people will follow anything
my
Yeah, that's all I want to know.
All right.
Peter Ray, by the B-bomb's world, this is the kind of stuff you get, by the way, when you spend a little time in Mexico, you come back with absolute winner after winner after winner.
All right, next headline.
What?
American Airlines accidentally gave a guy a hundred grand and he can't give it back.
Now explain because there's been a lot of news these days.
Airlines are near misses everywhere.
There's smoke and cockpits.
I mean, it's just a zoo out there in the air.
And now here we have a headline.
American Airlines gave a guy a hundred grand and he can't give it back.
What up?
Where user mahi mahi 524 posts anyone have experience dealing with refund error in which they gave you us 100k plus an incorrect funds due to a currency conversion error question mark.
So he was owed $1000 from American Airlines and they ended up paying him $100,000.
And he contacted them, he called them, he went through all the proper channels to try to return the money, obviously being afraid that they might come for it if he spends it or charge them or anything.
And they responded, nope, you've been given the correct amount.
What?
And again, the handle here, mahi mahi 524.
I love that.
Why doesn't this crap happen to me, Peter?
Why, why, you know, I know, this is the kind of stuff I would love to have happen.
And but I have to say.
I love the fact this dude, I'm assuming it's a dude, maybe not, was trying to be honest and said, look, you gave me $99,000 too much.
I'm going to give it back to you.
And they said, nope, keep it.
Keep it.
And we wonder why the cost of airline prices are going up so much.
I know
Are we gonna come back with more of this?
More, this is fantastic.
More great headlines from E-POM's world, Peter Rapine, Aaron Zomers, and we will wrap up what has been a very crazy week.
Come on back, it's the All Balls Show on Civic Media.
Welcome back to the title ball show on the civic media radio network.
It is now nine before the hour of two o'clock at the top of the new top of the news the top of the hour we have ABC or CBS news Updating on the big story of the day we spent The first 90 minutes of the show on it an unprecedented event today in the Oval Office in Washington DC Donald Trump JD Vance verbally assaulting
a sworn U.S.
ally in President Vladimir Zelensky of Ukraine.
They were supposed to sign a mineral rights deal that would give Ukraine some protection from Russia.
Instead, after the dressing down by Trump and Vance, they went into a private meeting in which reports are now that Trump kicked Zelensky out of the White House and refused to sign the deal.
And now Zelensky
is apparently on his way back to Ukraine.
We will continue to follow this big story across civic media, and we will pick it up on Monday.
Assuming we still have a country.
Right now, though, we finish up with our friend Peter Rapine, managing editor of Epom's World.
We can review actual headlines of actual stories of human behavior, but speaking of human behavior, we were talking about this offline.
I want to get this out there.
For those not watching on the stream on YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Peter, if he's a handsome man and he has a great, I say he's one of the finest mustache people I know.
And you now, Peter, are reporting.
We'll tell people what you saw offline.
So I, I recently got into an old cell phone of mine and had a bunch of photos of me from COVID.
And during COVID, I grew out my mustache.
You know, I hadn't seen it.
It left my house in months.
And I learned that my mustache does not stop growing.
Like it would just grow and grow and grow and grow.
So eventually I braided it.
And I look like a general from like three civil war times.
Yeah, it's probably my best feature.
That's amazing.
I mean, it's amazing that it just you have such a, what was the word I'm looking for?
Um, a gift.
It's a gift.
Your mustache is a gift.
Right.
I'm not sure either, but I just, I know it's, I can't wait to see the photos.
let's get back to the business at hand besides Peter's mustache There's a joke somewhere, but I'm just gonna move on anyway.
I'm really fascinated by this triple a triple a double America Airlines story that they they accidentally gave a guy a hundred grand and
when he was supposed to have a thousand and they say now because it will screw up his American Express points they can't they can't refund the money and they're saying just keep it that's remarkable all right all right i know i'm sorry to say that once so long but i just i love it all right next headline
