A couple of expert pranksters from Russia tricked former French President Francois Hollande into thinking one of them was former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, and some decidedly interesting revelations came out of the conversation. Most notably, Hollande admitted that the 2014 Minsk Accords, which were supposed to end fighting in the Donbass region of Ukraine were all a sham, intended to hoodwink Russia and allow the Ukrainians to build up their military capabilities to ramp up the war later. Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger talk with CODEPINK's Medea Benjamin about these revelations, which come as no surprise to anyone who knows the recent history of Ukraine, but unfortunately that's not most Americans.
