Savage speaks with Dennis Kucinich on why we must find a path to peace in Ukraine and prevent World War 3. They discuss their perspectives on the long-standing tensions between Ukraine and Russia, explaining how NATO and the US have been involved in attempting to influence Ukraine's government for economic and geopolitical reasons. Kucinich points to the role of Hillary Clinton and her animosity towards Russian President Vladimir Putin after her loss in the 2016 election. Kucinich underscores the constitutional issue of Congress's power to declare war, which he believes has been usurped by administrations. He warns about the financial motivations behind war and the danger of the "uni party" collusion for war. They then discuss the crisis of unchecked immigration and the impact it has on the country. He believes that the focus should be on helping the American people first before bringing in more immigrants. Kucinich also touches upon his political evolution and how he is now considered a conservative for taking peace-oriented positions, which was once a liberal stance in the Democratic party. He expresses his disappointment in the party's aggressive foreign policy and its preference for war over peace. Kucinich served as U.S. Representative from Ohio's 10th congressional district from 1997 to 2013. During his tenure, he was a vocal critic of corporate influence in politics and led the effort against the Patriot Act. Kucinich is currently seeking Ohio's 7th District seat as an Independent.
