"Russia's nuclear doctrine includes pre-emptive strikes"
That's not true, only as a respone to nuclear attacks or when the existence of the state is threatened.
The only nuclear power that has a doctrine allowing preemptive nuclear strikes is ... guess who.... the USA.
He wrote an article about it a while ago, it even includes a source to the original USDA article in the Yearbook Of Agriculture from 1939, check it out:

He did mention that publication specifically, maybe you overheard it :-)
And yes, the left guy is just the interviewer. Brad ist the guy on the right and Ray Peat is audio only.
Until recently i would have dismissed that and it's still difficult (i did keto and carnivore for the last 10 years!).
What they say is that starch turns into 100% saturated fats in your body (which is not saying it makes you fat) and the less PUFAs you have in your body the leaner and healthier you get. Not because of calories but because it increases your metabolic rate.
Don't worry, when i listen to these guys don't understand most of it either.
The worst PUFA offenders are sunflower oil and corn oil (see https://fireinabottle.net/lets-talk-about-fat/ in the middle of the article).

I know it sounds weird, i did keto and carnivore for the last 10 years.
Note however that today the feed of pigs and chicken is high PUFA (corn) and therefore the best choice would be ruminant meat. Some say it's not a big deal or they eat leaner meat and add butter or tallow.
PUFAs are poly-unsaturated fats, they are in both animals and plants.
All fats in animals and plants are a mixture of saturated, mono-unsaturated and poly-unsaturated. The classification into "animal" and "plant" is therefore useless.
2 properties distinguish fatty acids:
1.) length (short chain fatty acids, medium, long)
2.) number of unsaturated bonds, which gives them a bend each
Saturated fats are straight, which makes them hard at room temperature (higher density). The more unsaturated a fat is the more bends it has and the lower the melting point is.
In nature there is a important factor that determines your composition of fats and that's temperature.
All warm animals and tropic plants have lots of saturated fats.
All cold animals (fish) and plants have lots of unsaturated fats.
Fortunately grains are still fine because the poly-unsatured parts of the plant are discarded in processing and it has little fat anyway. Same for rice or potatoes.
Avocado and Coconut are great, you will see that they are very high in saturated fats (because they are tropical plants).
The reasoning behind warm animals and plants having different compositions is - among others - the cell membrane. A cell membrane is made mostly of fatty acids and it needs to have a very specific consistency to work. Too hard - doesn't work - dead. Too soft - doesn't work - dead. Your cell membrans would be stiff in a fish and it would die because you have more saturated fats. The cell membrane of a fish in your body would become liquid because it has more unsaturated fats and you'd die as well.
