Good evening. It's Friday, August 16th. I'm your old pal Michael Tracy.

Glenn is away again today doing something or other so you are stuck with me again.

Welcome to a new episode of System Update, our live nightly show that airs every Monday through

Friday at 7 PM Eastern exclusively here on rumble the free speech alternative

to YouTube. First there is a US-backed

invasion of Russia underway so you think that would be something rather important to question American officials on

and yet it seems like as per usual there is basically bipartisan continuity on that subject. So we'll review that and some other

developments on the Sisling Hot 2024 campaign trail.

And then I will speak to Glenn Dyson who is a

Russia analyst and a professor and we'll go through some of the details of the ongoing Ukrainian

incursion or invasion into the Kursk region and its implications for the trajectory of the war and

also the political implications here at home. So that should be good. And before we get to today's amazing content, I'd like to remind you that

system update is available in podcast form on Spotify and on all major

platforms. If you would like to support System Update and you want to support

the show, which you should should they why shouldn't you

whatever your word choice may be, it

disappeared to be a rather significant development
