into this room right now, i could probably kick his ass. if 1,000 five year olds walked in here, they could probably take me down. just being honest about it. is that a david versus goliath story? uh, you know no! something happened this january that no one expected. it was a little bit like an internet revolution. we were team human, team normal, regular guy. it s united capitalists. it s like this focal point, a paradigm shift for everything that s gone on for the last few hundred years on wall street. ..socialists. .. if there was a smaller chance that i could have a direct impact on ruining some billionaire s life, i wanted in on it. ..and youtubers. so how much did you make? $40,000-ish? the idea that an internet forum could take a failing company and, by collectively investing in it, or to use the parlance, taking it to the moon, take on hedge funds and win, seemed impossible.
helps with that, you know, shopping list? is that something that the pentagon coordinates with them? yes and no. biden administration provided millions and millions in military assistance to the ukrainian military. there have been trainers and advisors who we recently pulled out. sold them a lot of gear, javelins, that sort of thing. there is almost nothing short of sending troops in there to alter the fact it is a david versus goliath situation. you can provide more military assistance. this is the argument that the pentagon and bide administration provides as well. they are at the end of the day
possible here. it remains a david versus goliath conflict. the odds against ukraine. that said, you certainly don t want to count them out. we ve been surprised in the last several days. we should note western support is still coming to them. they re still getting the supply lines are open. they re still getting weapons that have proven devastating at times. these shoulder-fired javelin anti-tank missiles and fouled-fired stinger anti-aircraft missiles have inflicted losses. whether that changes the ultimate outcome, we don t know yet. jill, to you in moscow now. putin has worked really hard to divide the united states. but on the issue of ukraine and going after russia, the president got bipartisan applause tonight at the state of the union. do you think putin expected the united states and the world to rally against him the way that we have all been seeing? well, certainly not the
discuss mobilizing the 40,000 strong nato response force. sean: jennifer griffin from the pentagon, thank you. total war in the country of ukraine. vladimir putin attempting to take every inch of the country by force. while the government of ukraine has its own history of corruption, the people of ukraine as outmanned as they are they are bravely fighting back in a david versus goliath struggle. take a look. [crying]. [sirens wailing]. [loud explosions].
that, the occupation of iraq was not as smooth as people would have liked and this is one of those areas where i think the lessons of iraq can be applied to what russia may be planning to do here. let s take a look at russia s military might compared to ukraine s. russia has more than ten times the military budget of ukraine. it has nearly four times the active personnel of ukraine. and russia has more than seven times the combat aircraft. so this really seems like a david versus goliath mismatch. the u.s. continues to say it won t put boots on the ground in ukraine. they ve given the weapons and other equipment and resources for ukraine to mount its own defense. but colonel, are ukrainians any match for russians militarily? not in a symmetric sense. when you look at those figures, everything from the budget to the numbers of weapons systems that each country has, it s clear that russia has the really hard advantage of this case.
