What's up everyone, welcome to TYT, I'm your host Anna Kasparian.

And I just want to start off by saying that today, the Associated Press is reporting that

Ukrainian leaders are trying to ease the nerves of their citizens by saying that a Russian

invasion is not imminent.

So in other words, for everyone who was angry at me yesterday for not beating the war

drums, I was right again.

Look, I'm not doing that to take a victory lap, but I am mentioning it because, well,

two reasons.

Number one, I'm never going to come on the show and just fly by the seat of my pants,

is that what they say?

I'm always going to ensure that I have research and data to back up my points, okay?

The moment I don't have the receipts, I don't have the data, you can call me out and

I'll deserve it.

The other thing is, I forgot with the other, oh, this is the other thing.

Listen, when you hear corporate media pushing for something in unison and it seems to be almost

like an orchestrated effort towards something that's going to involve quite a bit of our

resources, question why they're doing it.

Question why it is that they don't ask why or how we're going to pay for something like

another war, this time with a nuclear power.

While they simultaneously ask about how they're going to pay for policies and provisions

that we desperately need, including universal healthcare, including universal pre-K, all

of the things that got blocked in the Senate in Biden's Build Back Better Agenda.
