Your conflicts of interest
How can you critically report on conflicts of interest in government, business, media, etc. with a straight face while you leave your own conflicts unaddressed? Not only your personal ties to Marianne and the potential that it contributed to the widely criticized end of your interview of with RFK jr. (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caa4odp4n10&t=208s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l779FMXnBcg 38:36 of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=30sBVPQB43Q https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP-_ntBoy1g) but also assertions that Krystal owns stocks in various things she reports on like covid lockdowns and online learning (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pk9cAzx_hqQ&t=1s). Does it undermine viewers' trust (especially those of your paying subscribers) when you don't answer their criticisms or simply address RFK's tie instead of anything substantive? Do you feel that by not addressing these criticisms they have overshadow what was overall a good interview, and should have been a demonstration of the how important independent media is right now?
Will you help me start a union?
I think you have an amazing show. I am trying to do something unprecedented. Please read my Union Charter, take time to consider helping. https://docs.google.com/file/d/1JQD2Z35ZzILGecUiOZ9GA7qdUyEuUJ7C/edit?usp=docslist_api&filetype=msword Here is also a fictitious story, that I turned into a simple video, I am using to help promote the idea. (Had to post on rumble, this was my only public video on YouTube and my account got shutdown 😢) https://rumble.com/v2rcun5-this-single-video-got-my-youtube-channel-shutdown.-unity-and-beyond-a-new-d.html Thank you for your time, I know it is very valuable. I hope the best for y’all. Feel free to share the links if you think it will help.
RFK JR
When RFK spoke about nuclear energy and the danger of melt downs why didn't Saager push back? He has spoken a lot about this and had a guest on a while back, can't recall her name, that addressed how much safer the technology is and the fact that Chernoble was 50s Era Soviet technology for a plant that served a dual purpose of making energy and plutonium for bombs.
Ukraine Corruption (Before the war started)
You guys often mention Ukraine is a very corrupt country, maybe one of the most corrupt. There are also people who claim the US is giving Billions of $$$ to fund Nazis in Ukraine. I have also heard accusations of Ukraine committing genocide by "destroying everything Russian" in East Ukraine and Crimea including actual killing of Russian people. On the surface, I believe there is a lot of truth to these statements. Can you elaborate on Ukraine's history of corruption? I think it's important for people to understand the details behind these statements. I have deep empathy for the people of Ukraine who are suffering from this war, but I also have empathy for the people of Russia who are suffering. Fundamentally I don't agree with our support in this war. It smells too much like the Military Industrial Complex making sure the money keeps flowing after Afghanistan. Thanks!
Kim Namjoon for President
Saagar, we all know that you are famously a fan of BTS. I have also recently become a fan of BTS, and I've noticed the impressive leadership skills of Kim Namjoon (stage name RM), the leader of the band. How do you think he would handle the Ukraine situation (or other contentious issues) if he was the US president? I know he is ineligible for several reasons, but honestly I think he would do better than the disgraceful leaders we've had in recent years.
