the stuff lasted for more than 100 years. 101521 care design. cortez is done with doors captured and destroyed the capital of the aztec empire. daniels practically massacring the local population. following them, francisco pizarro is conquistadores destroyed the ink and fired as a result. of spanish aggression, the ancient maya civilization collapse, suppressing the resistance of the indians. the invaders carried out mass executions . the horrendous genocide was aggravated by the diseases that the europeans had brought to america. the number of the indigenous population decreased 16 times from 25. so one and a half 1000000 people on keystone became one of the largest demographic the tasser fees of mankind and remains an indelible bloody stain in the history of that european colonial empires.
7:31 pm
the farmer sanchez, i've been doing news for 30 years and 2 languages all over the world. here in the united states i've interviewed for president's working for of the us is major television networks. i don't like what they do by the way, because i think news should be honest and direct and impactful, and this is direct impact. the i want to start by showing you a picture of somebody who's probably not supposed to be front and center in the news. suddenly is this is uh janet. yeah, let's see here. there are title is treasury secretary for the united states of america as such, she doesn't really make foreign policy. oh, she's supposed to. if a treasury secretaries and federal reserve chairs, which was her previous job,
7:32 pm
they're supposed to stick to essentially accounting and nomics. they usually shy away from engaging in politics, certainly world politics. but here she is sharing our personal opinion on the middle east. i think america stands behind israel's period. we stand with israel. america is also made clear, the israel, we're working very closely with the israel leaves that they have right to defend themselves. but wait, there's more here. she is now assuring the world that the us as plenty of it's a tax payers money to spend that will continue to do so by giving tens of billions of dollars of it to ukraine will also giving tens of billions more to israel and
7:33 pm
whatever else it might need i think the answer is absolutely america and certainly afford to stand with israel and to support this reels, military needs. and we also can, in most support ukraine and it's struggle against russia. find a way she's not alone. secretary of state anthony blanket is a sharing is real as he has a ukraine, that when it comes to funding, quote, we got your back. that's what he's saying. we got your best, plenty of money. don't worry that there's national security adviser takes all of us . who's also assuring his corporate media friends that he will put together a new weapons package for both israel and ukraine, which for starters, will be significantly more than the $2000000000.00 each that they've already
7:34 pm
guaranteed and not going to take the place the o and be director who will present the requests that we send up at the present was very clear today that we will be making a request to the congress. and it will include a request for funding for support to israel. and he has also been equally clear that we are going to renew our request to the congress for a to ukraine. what exact form that all takes that will be worked out and presented by others, not by me, but the notion that we're going to go up and ask for is related and ask for ukraine aid. that's unequivocal. we are going to do that. and of course the kuta gra, there is the president himself, mr. bide fresh off his visit to israel and mr. biden told reporters that he will now tie together his funding with to ukraine with the funding for israel. it, it, it's, it's a kind of a to for right, or maybe better said if you want one from column a,
7:35 pm
you got to take one from column b. that's why the more i'm going to send to congress an urgent budget request to fund another dispatch. so security needs to support are critical partners, including israel and ukraine, is a smart investment is going to pay dividends for american security. for generations help us keep american troops out of harm's way. now if you're a us taxpayer flag, diane, and you're hearing this to change things down to the cash register going off in your head with all of these numbers. while your money is being spent on causes that have really nothing to do with you or your family, rest assured to are not alone. in fact, there are members of congress who are now asking some of the same questions that don't dress them from day one. they're wor, pounds, that's all right,
7:36 pm
and their business is very good right now. borrowing money from china to send it to you. crane makes no sense. you know, who else starting to ask, you know, who else starting to worry about this money? money he thought was promised to him, but may now be going somewhere else toward a cause he fears may trump is. yeah. ukraine president a lot of mere zalinski. it explains say press reports. why he was so eager to try and combine his cause with that of israel's how did try to do that? well by literally inviting himself to join the us delegation as they met with his really officials immediately after these almost attack. interesting move right. well, instead of being welcome though, he was kind of humiliated, that's how it was reported globally, by the way, that's not my word. it was reported that way in newspapers like india's induced on
7:37 pm
times, in fact, what prime minister benjamin netanyahu essentially told that you, granny and president, was thanks, but no thanks. that's on. yeah, those exact words as lensky were, quote, is not the right time. ouch. so here's what's going on. now let's lensky is obviously sensing something about this situation while you are so socials in the bottom, administration continue to promise ukraine, that their check is on the way history is telling a different story. as there are countless examples in u. s. foreign policy and kept promises when priorities just changed. and there's no bigger priority in u. s. foreign policy, by the way. then the state of israel americans need to remember it's not that is real needs america, america needs israel. israel is the front line of defense for the uranium regime
7:38 pm
and harris that want to hurt us and want to hurt our friends. and we need to be honest with the american people. and so, well us funding shift toward israel and the way from ukraine really to early to tell. but those closest to the situation seem to be feeling that it's all but uh, a forgone conclusion at this point. and the person coming to that conclusion, by the way is this is gonna maybe shock you maybe not. none other than the finance minister of ukraine himself, sir, he march and go in a moment of candor. has told reuters that as he sees it, the owners are tiring of ukraine. speaking of the international monetary fund and the world bank meetings and mar cash morocco. merchant goes said that his country has been promised billions of dollars,
7:39 pm
but he's still waiting for it. and then he admitted the following. and now let's talk about the u. s. congress. it's that an impasse specifically over spending, and in large measure, it's about the spend that's being sent to ukraine. and as you've been hearing during these arguments, many on the republican side of the aisle are calling. if money that is not well spent, it's a problem that has in fact reached a fever pitch so much so that it's already costs. the old speaker of the house is job. it has sent the entire body. really just tell us. just tell us what was in the secret ukraine side deal, what commitments were made to print to president biden, to continue the spending of president biden in exchange for doing things for president biden. it is becoming increasingly clear who the speaker of the house
7:40 pm
already works for. and it's not the republican conference but there is an even bigger concern for ukraine that you have to be. you have to be something like maybe someone who is that going american insider to really appreciate it. but you have to understand the american spirit is a we americans are if nothing else, man, we are extremely sickles. and we fall in love and we fall out of love with the latest media fad. like nothing you've ever seen before. nbc, cnn fox news, they sell it and we buy it until they sell something else. and then we just move on to the next thing. whatever else they're selling. now, one day afghanistan is the worst place of the world and we've got to attack until it is it, the rock has weapons of mass destruction. oops. maybe they don't. syria. yeah, been living. yeah. it's so confusing, right? how vietnam used to be the domino that would tip over lots of countries and make
7:41 pm
them all commies and to show the world today, the announcer trading partner, hello. funny how it works. right. and then there's a war on terror where. busy those people were all replaced by the next scene. the question for ukraine is, in the physical world of us politics, the 24 hour media cycle, the american voters who are simply used to moving on. how does it remain relevant? how does you claim remain relevant? and how does it a boy not being replaced or replaced by the next big thing? hey, by the way, i'd like to continue this conversation with you. what do you say we do it on twitter racks, as it's now called. i think my handle rick sanchez, tv. rick sanchez, tv and i'll be looking for you there. okay. when we come back,
7:42 pm
why if it has gotten even worse for those who want to continue to send funds to ukraine? i'll tell you the welcome to explain it straight to us the lumber choice jamie process before the so there's 2 more games. as i mentioned earlier is i've just deep requirements. not express here, submit item. so you may to not as only can we cods no problem, no, no, open up in the front, and then for the 5th. and if i know 4 will be street, which is pretty much full time to go buy from a bit lower francisco from over proof of those type of stuff that
7:43 pm
are coming out of the learning. so figured are available to try to implement. so the, the, the different levels and enough one to the, it's almost at the moment when the system good. what was she doesn't, you know, the choice between democracy in odd talk or see he's a boss one because the ultimate issue is about who controls information means of production and distribution and who controls money in debt and increasingly in the united states. or for that matter, by in china, russia and other countries is controlled by multinational corporations,
7:44 pm
which are not an alternative government, but are rather a form of government itself, which is on account of the pay. welcome back, i'm rick sanchez. 2 things have happened recently that have to be extremely concerning for ukrainian president the zalinski on top of some of the things we previously discussed. one is that twitter owner, eli mosque is expressing his very pointed disappointment with the ukranian counter offensive of his sharing it. and he's going on to say that, in fact, the us should already start having talks with russia to establish some kind of truce here. but even more concerning than that probably is the fact that the us house of representatives, you know,
7:45 pm
this battle that's been going on for so long. well, guess what? they finally have a new speaker, or a new leader in the house congress. his name is mike johnson, he's a conservative republican, and he's been expressing his disapproval of sending more funding to ukraine. a john instead of talking about this is march the boat. he's in the international relations. he's also in a, a security atlas based in moscow. and he has a background in both defense, military and security. so he's really the perfect person to talk to about this. i want to start with this mark. so we've got janet young comes out and she says, well, we certainly got enough money to fund taiwan. and is real and ukraine and so it is anthony blue. good. uh so it is. uh, jake solomon, the front of united states as we have plenty of money, don't worry about it. in fact, we're also going to do a package that can be. busy taken care of sending funds to the border as well along
7:46 pm
a year with texas and the arizona. so are they right? got plenty of money. no, nothing to worry about. all right, thanks for having me. it's always an honor to, in a pleasure to be on the show. um, well, i mean, i guess that is a question that you really need to be asking directly to us taxpayers. right. the pentagon budget for last year was nearly a trillion dollars. right. not counting conflict spending, which is it access and by that has just asked for another $106000000000.00 on top of that. so this goes to fuel, you know, a whole host of military requirements including a network of well. busy over $800.00 military bases around the world, which is, you know, it's about $750.00 military base is more than anyone else has around the world
7:47 pm
and most of those others are us allies. um, so what the us tax payers funding is primacy right there. the military primacy, the goal of the u. s. to not only have the most powerful military in the world, but to have a more powerful military then all of any potential rivals challengers or discontents at the same time. and then it is interesting to say that i'm going to interrupt you cuz it just made me think of something that's been kind of not yet me a little bit as an american living here in the great united states of america. the country that i'm very proud of for many great things we have done lately. i have gotten the feeling that everything military and militaristic have more like is only
7:48 pm
present. you cannot go to a sporting event without having to watch rockets, literally planes. you know, we're planes going above as part of the beginning of the game. you can't go to any of that anywhere without having soldiers come up with the fly, which, you know, then you have to salute the flag. and then, you know, saying that atlanta, which i'm fine with, obviously, but it just seems like there's 3 evidence towards everything being so military, you can't turn on the tv without seeing something that's joining to the military and defense and more. and then on top of all that, you just said that we're almost spending a trillion dollars the most ever, according to what the, by the administration just did. and yet every time you turn around, somebody's asking you for a donation for our soldiers, for the military, etc. it's kinda weird and i, i'm probably not the only one in this country who was noticing that,
7:49 pm
but it's not something you want to say publicly because then people are going to think you're not patriotic or. yeah i, i think is really uh you made it a good point. um, i think that on multiple levels, not just the military and the military spending itself, but the militarization of us society on, you know, everything from sporting events to a completely militarized police force across the country. uh, to uh, you know, uh, domestic intelligence services like the f, b i and everything um, are incredibly, uh, you know, militarized to a degree the, and i'll do you one more movies, the media, the cable, those shows the newspapers they, they carry on the drum beat of war so that when suddenly whereas should
7:50 pm
we be sending money to country maddox because we need the help of everybody's like yeah, i guess so. is that what we're supposed to do? sure. uh huh. but i mean, it's kinda like that's how they get you. cuz no one, no one say why no one's asking that question mark. when the us was launching a cruise missile strikes into syria, a few years ago, i remember there was a, a journalist anchor for one of the big 3. i can't remember or the moment, but he was on, you know imbedded with the forces on the ship and, and he was live and talking about how the site of a cruise missile was the most beautiful thing he has ever seen in his life. and i'm like, i mean, i'm x u. s. navy, and i don't know, i've seen a lot more beautiful things than groups are going to be more of the cation of everything having to do. and i'm not against having
7:51 pm
a standing military. i'm not against using the military when necessary, but a 20 years and a half against stand to get absolutely nothing but make a whole lot of people rich. same we can say about the situation in iraq. and now the story we're getting that we have to just continue to give gabrielle what ever the hell wants no matter what it is that we go, oh god, they're back. oh, and we're still going to be pumping money or your credit and we're going to be above the money it is. i want, after a while, it starts to sound pretty crazy. especially considering that most americans to day, according to most studies, barely couldn't get by paycheck to paycheck without going broke. yeah, i mean, where would i have to wonder, why haven't the american people demanded accountability from their politicians? we started 20 trillion dollars wasted on this fail fiasco
7:52 pm
where our politicians and our military lied to us continually about the state of the conflict for 20 years. i rac, livia syria, where are we still have us occupation forces sitting on syria's oil and weak fields? right? well let's, let's talk about that because that's an interesting point you raised in this one that i think we need to address. and it has to do with really 2 things. are media, which is where we get all information, you know, the average working american good guy, go to galley, they, they put in their hours and come home, they get their beer, they sit in front of the tv and the going to watch. i don't know blitzer sean hannity who the hell knows some cable news channel or something and they're gonna expect that they're gonna be told the truth. and in fact, they're generally not what they're generally they're not, those people wouldn't never question what our military or what our government does in terms of military expansion is. and it's really interesting to because in the
7:53 pm
past we used to and then the 2nd part of this is politicians. they're supposed to protect us against this kind of spending. but a thing don't. why is it that those 2 entities seem like varying codes with whatever the heck the military industrial complex wants, which is more wars and more said, well, one of the, of, of course is the revolving door between the us military complex. uh and uh, both the politicians that, and often even journalists, i mean there, there is that, you know, as lobby as there's a huge revolving door. but it's more than just personal interest because military industrial complex is the vehicle for in the ideology for an ideology of american exceptionalism that demands us primacy. a and germany, and that goal is seems to be pushed by the us media. i don't remember. there's
7:54 pm
a reason why we call the media of the for, for state as if they are a 4th and an equal branch of government. how many press conferences have, have we seen? where reporters asking questions of either the, you know, state department, the white house press corps, the pentagon? bad during, why haven't you sent this weapon to you? great. not. not asking but badgering. why have a lot of the boards did during the vietnam war, which got to go back fiasco right us? yes. right into and then and then out of. but there was a big, huge narrative change somewhere along the line. they just don't know if the media is capable of that type of the sense that they eventually became capable of during the vietnam war today. as long as a guy at
7:55 pm
a military corporation, whether it's raytheon or anybody else, can put money in the pocket of these politicians. these politicians will be able to support boards because they're essentially accepting legal brides. and we're talking about hundreds of millions of dollars. finding himself got over a $100000000.00 to become the president of the united states. much of it from some of these corporations. so house and american am i not to then doubt whether the reason he's really fully in support of ukraine has less to do with my needs. and mike is, needs more with his needs to have a question how, how do you vote against northrop grumman and, and goldman sachs. i mean it's, it's impossible with the serious problem that we have us country right now though. i mean, it's how do we mean i'm an american and then i want this country to do right. and
7:56 pm
i'm not saying i don't, we don't want to be involved. they'll generally from time to time. but it starts to look like it's just the front of the game. that's the problem. unfortunately, as long as the us dollar continues to be the global reserve currency, which is starting to rain but only slowly and the not a process that will happen. then the us can keep printing more money and borrowing more money and it's called, you know, quantitative easing and they can continue spending these enormous military budgets . but i think that there's more than just personal interest. there is a broad bi partisan consensus on the goals of us for and in military policy in pursuit of
7:57 pm
primacy and had gemini ben rhodes called this a norm as establishment that really decides us foreign policy. mark your delight to talk to thank you. my friend, i enjoyed the conversation. thanks for having me rick. it's always a pleasure. likewise. hey, before we go, i want to remind you of our mission. it's simple, really. what we want to do is trying the silo the world. we've got to stop living in these little boxes where we think only our information matters. and it's all we read are see troops don't live in boxes to this everywhere of how much the interest i'll be looking for you again, right here, where i hope to provide a direct impact. the
7:58 pm
take a fresh look around. there's a life kaleidoscopic, isn't just a shifted reality distortion by power to division with no real opinions. fixtures, design to simplify will confuse really once a better wills, and is it just as a chosen for you? correct? sure. the images presented. it is. but can you see through their illusion going underground can a few issues of polarized the world recently, like israel's war on gaza. the west defends israel's colonial, spend a little project. the rest of the world looks on in anger and discussed what we're witnessing is the end of the west, 500 years of global hegemony. it has lost the
7:59 pm
release of russian states. never as i've started as i'm one of the most sense community invest. ingles, all sense, and the same assistance must be the one else holes. question about this, even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin mission, the state on the russians cruising and split the r t smith. net keeping our video agency roughly all the band on youtube, the fitness center. for what question did you say, even closer to the
8:00 pm
court further considers the israel most in sure, with the media, the fact that it's military forces do not commit any of the aforementioned at the international court of justice instructor is role to take all necessary measures to prevent genocide and gonzo. television is livid. the charge of genocide level against is of it is not only false is the rage and decent people everywhere should reject hundreds of pro policy and protest. those are in front of all the new and stop court as it delivers its verdict and emergency provisions demanded by south africa. and the president vladimir putin says care of and.
