In this episode of Red Star Daily I look at the latest from the frontline including the stories coming out of Kherson.  I then look at the deployment of Russian forces to Belarus and how they may be potentially used.  I then look at the propaganda stories regarding the Novaya Khakovka damn and how believing this story depends upon a decade of British/US propaganda regarding the the nature of the Russian government.

In this episode I speak to the journalist Dan Cohen about his recent article on political crises afflicting Haiti.  We discuss the many invasions suffered by Haiti led by US and French imperialism, the role of the liberal opposition as tools of the US, the tactics the Biden regime is pursuing and the man emerging as a new leader of Haitian resistance Jimmy Cherizier.  It's a fascinating interview and be sure to keep an eye out for Dan's upcoming documentary on the issue.
