Mosheh OinounouPANELIST
Um, we heard from Xi Jinping last week.
Gordon G. ChangGUEST
You know, after Xi Jinping left, you know, Trump released that video of saying America will not, never be communist, but how, how can you release that video when just before you were praising China and then Xi Jinping? It doesn't compute, and I think the President of the United States needs to have an honest conversation with the American people about how dangerous this moment is and how malicious communist China is, and this summit took everybody in the wrong direction.
Gordon G. ChangGUEST
So, you know, whether we're talking about 100,000 students going to China or two pandas in Zoo Atlanta or any of these other things, we gotta put them into the context that we're at a very dangerous place, and President Trump did not protect us, uh, during the summit.
Brannon HowseHOST

Stuart CosgroveHOST
President of the United States and he met the Chinese leader in Washington and their summit appears to have included Trump offering to sell US weapons to China.

Andrea BakerGUEST
They had a pair between 99 and 2024 who had babies.
Andrea BakerGUEST
And they sent the babies and the pair back.
Gordon ChangGUEST
And I think the President of the United States needs to have an honest conversation with the American people about how dangerous this moment is and how malicious Communist China is, and this summit took everybody in the wrong direction.

And in 1994, Ivan was donated to the Woodland Park Zoo.
JenHOST
But Seattle didn't have an appropriate long-term space for him, so he was ultimately transferred to Zoo Atlanta.

Their arrival at Zoo Atlanta came with great fanfare, especially since the bears are a rarity in U.S. zoos.
