Joe Rogan voiced his worries about the recent escalation in the intensity of the war between Russia and Ukraine. The 57-year-old criticized the US government's role in funding the rise of tensions between these two countries.
Rogan delves into many topics amidst the episodes of his coveted podcast, The Joe Rogan Experience. The 57-year-old hosted the noted musician Scott Storch for episode no. 2233 of JRE. But Rogan talked to Storch about several other issues apart from music.
The Boston native stressed the current phase of the Russia-Ukraine war in the latter part of the podcast episode. Russia and Ukraine have been involved in a war since the initial half of 2021. But Rogan detailed how a recent decision from the US government might significantly escalate the intensity of the war.
Rogan was even more baffled since Russia retaliated to Ukraine's strike by firing a mid-range missile. He mentioned it could've packed nuclear warheads as well and the results could've been catastrophic. Rogan said:

"They [Russia] fired an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile for the first time ever. It's the first time one of those has ever been used. It's fu*king insanity because those missiles can have nukes [nuclear warheads] on them. This one didn't, but if it does, the whole world changes and it changes because of the military-industrial complex and it changes because the money that's going to Ukraine and it changes because the outgoing president or whoever the fuck is actually running the country has decided to do something fu*king insane. Fu*king insane!"

Joe Rogan sided with Elon Musk to support Donald Trump in the 2024 U.S. Presidential elections
Elon Musk had graced the platform of JRE previously as well. But his latest appearance was for a special purpose. The SpaceX CEO supported Donald Trump and the Republicans in the 2024 U.S. Presidential elections.
During Musk's latest JRE appearance, he urged people to vote for Trump if they wanted America to continue having free and fair elections. He said:
"We're still in America. But if the Dems win this election, they will legalize enough illegals to turn the swing states, and everywhere will be like California. There will be no escape."

Rogan agreed with most of Musk's words during his appearance on his podcast. He also appreciated the SpaceX CEO in the caption of the tweet with the entire episode of JRE, revealing himself as a Trump supporter.
"The great and powerful @elonmusk. If it wasn't for him, we'd be f**ked. He makes what I think is the most compelling case for Trump you'll hear, and I agree with him every step of the way. For the record, yes, that's an endorsement of Trump. Enjoy the podcast."
