the question did you states steve across the channel, the entire body of rick sanchez, and i'm here to tell you that after being a journalist and it is presented for, for the biggest television networks in the united states. it's time for some context and for some truth that like an in that vein. here's what we're going to be talking about today. number one, why is the supreme court saying donald trump must be on all the ballots in the united states? number 2, why didn't do it? why did his kid hulu classified us more documents and just got 16 years in prison? why did they do it? and number 3, president of the united states now says he's a big fan of people who criticize the government. who was he talking about?

are you ready? this is direct impact. the finally, it's in the decision as to whether donald trump can be excluded pushed out from the ballots. in some states is in we've learned that it was a 9 to nothing decision ruling that donald trump can be on. the ballad in colorado and other states, eastern justices during the oral argument, seemed very skeptical of the idea that one state could decide for the nation whether donald trump was an insurrection to us and was therefore disqualified under this 150 year old provision. so so, so let me take you through it a little bit. so what the court is saying essentially, is that if the president is to be excluded from 4 pass passions from an election, no matter how bad those action may be or may not be,

it should not be up to the states. you're saying it should be up to congress to make a national decision like that, you know what? probably right. because imagine what would happen if democratic states or republican states in the future for that matter, got a chance to eliminate the other parties candidate that my friends would be a mess. let's talk about something else. now i want to talk about young jack dix shera in massachusetts air national guardsmen jet tech zera, pleading guilty in boston federal court today. the terms of his plea deal include 16 years in prison, prosecutor say the air man uses top secret security clearance to access highly classified intelligence about the war and ukraine and other conflicts that he shared in the chat group on the social media site. discord, hey, this score, what's discord? it's a place where gamers hang out. most of them are kids like to share. i mean, to see his picture. and what he did was reckless and it was stupid. it was not an

active journalism. what he did, nor did he do it because he was pro peace. he did it because of his ego. he wanted to show off. any of the court is cutting him a break. are you thinking what i'm thinking? as i'm saying these words, shouldn't the government give a break to those who act on personal ethics and not ego? i say that by the way, because i'm a journalist and i believe if you share a valuable truth that should be taken into account. and then again, most people who do the news today don't agree with me here in the united states. but then again, most of them are not journalists seriously. in fact, many of them are former government shills who report only what the state department tells them to report. look, i'm not against the state department. okay. it's necessary. i just think a journalist is supposed to challenge those guys. not surely for them. take the rock what, for example, our government was chaired into that situation, right?

we chair and for them to go ahead and do the war and what did we get out of it? right? the creation of isis less, not more democracy and more terrorism. and to this day, those truths are not told on television here in america, in our country. in fact, the idiots who plan that more are invited on the new shows you can you see them all the time to this day? they are invited and treated like their heroes. really, a showing for the government is easy, takes guts to tell the truth. take the case of julia massage. he told the truth about some horrible things that our government did em lied about in a rock and. and in afghanistan, and for that, he's been chased, tortured and are in prison for the better part of the last 12 years of his life. let's hear now from our president, the president of the united states. here's job, i'd be bravely stood up to the corruption, the violence, and the all the, all the bad things of yes he did. you're right mister president. exactly. that

julian a saw and reported truthfully on many bad things, and for that he had them arrested and prosecuted for fabricated crimes. he says that the prison is held with nice solutions. yep. all true. his life has been made a living hell. and yet assange assigned she never gave in even in prison, she was a powerful voice for the truth. all right, i've got to apologize for you and, and there's a reason i'm apologizing right now. you see i was playing with you a little bit. there was a game i was playing with you to make this point in that speech. mr. biden is not referring to julian assault because the people who wrote that speech for him don't like a song. but you know, they do like they really like this guy name, alexi know of all me a matching president biden was praising. why? because he criticized not the us government. rather,

the russian government before dying into prison after being setting his board stream is him for criticizing vladimir, put, and by the way, i defend his right to criticize bottom or put at that time. and he did have his share of supporters in russia to be fair. that support was tiny, tiny, compared to the support he gets in western countries. so he was a student of all the right. he was in the, in a politician with motives tactics and an ideology which most of us here in the west . i've never really bothered to understand our government. a news media have a simple take on the volume. if it goes something like this, she doesn't like put, and therefore he must be great. it's that simple. the same western leaders wanted to, of all need to be heard because they believed he was a truth dollar fine. that's there, right? but if that's the case, wouldn't you also want the song to be heard as well? and if not, the comparison screams hypocrisy. now, there are some good news here,

by the way. this is new. that hypocrisy is becoming evident to a british high court. they are deciding now whether the extra tide is on back to the united states, where he would be punished even more severely. judges are asking some good common sense question. here's julia. so i'm just brother talking about this, saying that he was in court and he sent as a little bit of a change with the judges. you know, making statements like, oh so if julian is extra daughter, does that mean any journalist in the u. k, i could be extradited and the prosecution essentially had to answer yes. so, you know, the judges making these sorts of points. i found quite interesting and in, in a different vibe. here is a good question. why did it take 12 years to ask it? but why the continual attacks on us on still doing only support the truth tellers if they criticize russia. but if they criticize our government, then we spare we disparage them like, well, like this. and i would argue that it's closer to being the high tech terrorist

pathologist, a narcissist who has created nothing of value. he relies on the dirty work of others to make himself famous. he has to answer for what he, how is, has done is this guy is a traitor, a treasonous, not for the death penalty. so if i'm not for the defense, only want to do it illegally. shoot the son of a shoot, the son of a peep, shoot. the son of a mean that's our government, and those who take orders from them in the media respond to a journalist who was arrested for publishing truths. let's say once again what they say about no, only this time this was put together by editors, colleagues at r t international to tell me what you think after watching this. now they're talking about the bombing alexi and the vall knee has been a brave leader who stood up against corruption and talk or seeing he died for a quote through which he dedicated his whole life freedom. the world has lost a freedom fighter in alex a. nobody was a reminder of extraordinary brutality and his government quite

a different so i want to close with the quote. i think it fits this case where we embrace only those things that are part of our team, even if they're wrong and we hate whatever is offered by the other team, even if they're right. the quote comes from a fellow cuban, interestingly enough, her name is a nice name. she moved to france from havana in the early 19 hundreds and there she became a famous novelist. and here is her quote, she says, or writes, we don't see things as they are. we see things as we are cast a c mail. that's right. issue right. we only see things from our own painted perspectives, most of the time. and what does it say about our government? that is what i'm going to be asking our guest after we take this break, we will be joined by legal and media analyst line. oh, don't go what the,

[000:00:00;00] the scenes the beginning of its history. the united states of america has officially declared this driving for freedom and people's rights to happiness. however, in reality, having won independence, american colon is dated for the total extermination of the indigenous population of the continent. american indians were deprived of their land. local residents were driven into reservations given the worst agricultural territories,

while the best land was appropriated by white colonizers, the strongest blow to american indian tribes was the extermination of vice of native americans lived by hunting these wild animals. colonists slaughtered the bison, and in fact, made them nearly extinct. every buffalo did is in india and gone, said colonel richard dogs, a veteran of the bloody and vicious indian wars cynically. the indigenous population was simply exterminated us army generals philip sheridan expressed the evidence of this policy in the infamous words. the only good india is a dead indian. the genocide of native americans of north america lead to a demographic catastrophe. the exact number of deaths is still unknown, but the number of victims is in millions. having been a majority on the continent before the indigenous people make up less than 3

percent of the us population today. on march the 22nd 1943. during the great petri, i'll take the shirts and a bunch of fatality and 118. run down the belly, mercy, and village of cutting the ship of the surely no, it is not serious. that is just loved pieces to this one. most of the rooms to pony you to you. $149.00 people died including $75.00 children of age was practically wiped off. the face of the la new blue loves the live orchard and couldn't charlie was you know, just where you put it as follows. oh, shoot was hard really. i really usually its own you sonya. so the infamous battalion responsible for the actual city included over $100.00 ukrainian

nationalists from west to new. right. because of the picture. all right, and so i'm see what you guys so far as the new e phone, the so long as you guys pursuing your opportune, i'm with them you as possible with the declassified criminal cases from the central archive of the k g b, a better rules shed light on the atrocity and on so numerous questions that have remained an onset for many years. watch on see

the the, all right, here we go. i want to welcome you back from wherever it is in the world that you're watching us right now. we're joined by the line old. he's a legal and a media analyst, and i figure this is like throwing red meat is a guy like line. well this, this, this type of just story filled with so many twists, sterns and true iron in hypocrisy. i want to read you that quote, that, that, that, that was written by a cuban author, interestingly enough to live most of our lives in france died, i think of 1977 and a nice and in rides. we don't see things as they are. we see things as we are. is it really what this comes down to? is it a universal problem, or is there something about us lately as

a government that makes us more guilty of that than others? well, rick, a couple of things here. let's go back to some rudiments. um the, the, the only thing i know as a, as a lawyer and somebody who follows by the way this, this is my religion. this is my bible, this is the constitution. and that's all i know. and i let other people decide whether the volunteer was it here real where the result just to hear of i don't really care for purposes of this, but i will tell you this in the year 2001, the supreme court dealt with an issue. and a case called parts nicky against the hopper to and it came to deal with a, with a talk show host and a radio station who became a, who became in possession of a conversation that was illegally paved. gather it was a wire tap violation. somebody took it from the labor, it doesn't really matter. so you have somebody who is a media person who comes into contact with something that was stolen, but it's news weren't sound familiar. okay. so he published

a broadcast. the question was, is he absolved from any kind of liability? is there a 1st amendment right? first amendment? that's why they call it 1st the 1st member, right? that he enjoyed by publishing something which would be illegal if he did it. mm hm . but wasn't there somebody else in the supreme court that absolutely he is protected by the 1st time that daniel ellsberg. what is that all about that sound papers? yeah, daniel outbreak, i'm convinced, violated all kinds of laws when he went a new copy from the really corporation that rick, you're talking about somebody which is very important. and it's, it's funny. the notion of a reporter, what we're seeing today is we have media proxies. they are re, peters, not reporters. they're actually, they're, they're, they're out board representatives of the government, the that because this is my turn now. and this is what i've spent my life doing. the vast majority of them do not have journalism degrees. the vast majority of them and i can name them,

but i want them barracks. them have never covered a story. i've never actually been a reporter on the street. so this is like, uh, going to a hospital and a doctor. watch into your office and you say, do you have a medical degree and he says no, but, you know, i, i think i could probably do this. that's what's going on with journalism today. they hire people because they're pretty or because they're whatever connected or because they're willing to take a lot of money to tell things that are true. well, obviously people are higher because they're pretty and i and that's about me. but here's the story. know, rick, the thing is, is that i, i don't differ with you, but i want to qualify something. roger ailes one time was ask the question, should journalist be license? and he said you only need a license to cut here. now, there are people who, by the way, rick, who, one day may be outside and there is a fire and they have a phone and they pick their phone up and they take a picture of it and they publish it. and i think they were a journalist,

i think the report and i think they are as valid as, as anybody else for that matter. as walter cronkite, they may not be as skilled. so in today's new platform, citizen civilian alternative, journalist, people who have opinions. and i think are under the protection of this, however, when you're up at the upper echelons the leaves of c, none and others i, i listen very carefully to what you're saying because there's one thing to be a bureau cheap as nothing to work. oh, but wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute, i'm going to take, i'm going. i'm going to push back on you on that. i'm not saying there's anything wrong with being someone who doesn't have a journalism degree. for example, if you've practiced your craft and excel data, there are a great journalists who don't have a home on these channels because they can't, they won't hire them because they're truth tellers. so yes, there are places where people on the alternative news locations these days can be skilled, can have a following, and should have

a following. but they still have to be able to practice their craft in such a way so that they're doing it correctly. i don't want the guy who shows up at your back back yard barbecue has too much to drink and discharge of painting all kinds of crazy stuff to say, oh yeah, that's the guy i want to listen to every day on the radio. now that's a hold of the i'm going to push back. now i'm going to push back again on that. i would the individuals decide whether that i, i may tend to agree with you. but i don't want to see or suggest who is valid and who is not the most it with the constitution. in this particular case, let me give you an example of something i love this. i love it the way what you know of for the a not for me, julian, a shot joining assigned is for all practical purposes. he's like the jose padeo, who is the individual who was arrested in chicago, an american citizen who was, who was the 1st enemy combatants, who were just forgotten and basically went mad in prison. now, we had a fellow named gonzalo lira. you may not agree with this, but i believe gonzalo lira, who was a journalist. yeah, he did

a youtube channel that was in he was in your brain. and basically from what, what, from what we understood he was killed or died, or like navarre lee, a identical with somebody that many of us liked or whatever. he wasn't an agent. i don't think he was called, i lived with these a poor fall. so that's no, you raise a great point. well, i know you've got one right. where was that? and i'm not even know i did the journalist where, where was that story? where was the united states government standing behind one of its citizens. a journal is known as a us citizen. well, what do your grandfather was filing stories, but there was a lot of good government didn't like. and one day he mysteriously disappeared after being detained movement taken to a hospital. where's the address? uh, and also speaking with the state department, it is their number one, the, the only reason they are in power is not to do negotiation with. the president

basically is to act as a liaison for us citizens abroad. and the like. let me also give you something which is important, which is also critical. you know, this idea of, of how some people are allowed. some people are ok and some people aren't. that's the thing i find so interesting. nobody cares about that. let me throw another one at you just with just the way, by the way, why? pushing back on both. i'm telling you right now and, and, and i'm telling you that most of the people at cnn feel like they have to say things or promote a certain message, because they work in cnn. and many of those may or may not be journalists. there are also people in the alternative news community who are very good and i respect them and they don't work for one of those places. but i think there should be a general agreement as to who in society is a b s artist. and who actually has something interesting to say, we are allowed as

a glass diety to come to those conclusions. we don't have them arrested, but i'm allowed to have my opinion. well, put it this way. if we could have a graphic be as artist, i would be honored if you could put a lower 3rd for me and have it in the file. let me give it another one to rick. this is something which i still find amazing. on january the 6, there were a number of americans, a lot of them are red tag wearing can be used one guy with an eye patch. one guy with the uh, you know, the carry helmet, whatever it was. who, who, who were a lead you'd to have been able to over throw the government, the 2nd airborne in the 1st marine division, this guy with a pot belly and a guy just been play. all right. some of these people rec, serve more time in prison, then child molesters. now i'm using that fair. that's okay. that to me was absolutely a violation of the 1st amendment to, to, to meet now some were guilty of trust fast and a variety of things. and that's another story. yeah, yeah, but the other we're talking about here,

let's bring it back to where we started the conversation. there is a extreme double standard when it comes to our government and it's outside of politics. this is not democrats versus republicans. it's just not by didn't versus trump. this is really about the underpinnings of what i think is happening in our government today. where the power of the state, the state department, those forces that make mores more of them lately than i've ever seen before in my life time seemed to have of a certain control over the messaging that we received a match, rory. oh was the legend. there was a time i, i don't when i was in talk radio and i was a w, a, b, c. and i work with vice. remember that was a time when bill clinton was on air force. one. he says, do we think we way to bring the fairness doctor back? he says it can't. can we got a democratic talk, joe hoses favorite. it's like it was different. then let me throw one more at because i see this is a big i love the way they say one guy is a political prisoner. other guy is, i mean they're identical. there was a case recently of this aaron bush, now this,

the aramon who cool. so emulated in front of the is rarely a know a very well embassy. yeah. okay. now what did they say on chat on, on nbc. he's a not an angry and mitchell at the end of her spotwood. and if you know somebody who is suffering from suicidal ideation is call this them. okay, i didn't, i really the district really the yeah. wow. and 19601963. remember the monk? i know very well. yes. the 1st picture picture of, of the what we said, what us spirit, what a bobby sent and the hunger strikers. i would, this is incredible, but this guy because he's taking the wrong side, is not he's the one man a terrorist. the other man, freedom side, but we do, we do, and we do that especially, and i'm not the, i'm not here to promote, you know, russian politics or no bomb they are putting or anybody else for that matter. that's not my job. i'm a journalist, but it does seem like we take certain countries that we decide we need to be in tag

a mistake with. and we're going to put our i are, and it's a rod and it's washer and it's china and it's been as well. and, and, and i'm not here to defend any one of those or put them down, but don't all know, but i, as we remember, and in particular you are, i, i'm a native for really and 2nd generation. and i remember cube, i mean i'm not human, but all my friends, everybody i mean and from, from tampa. and i remember, i mean, there's just at the height of the cold war. i live where we're sun. com is mcgill air force base duck and cover. and i remember of, of boris and natasha russo fully a core martians throughout history. everything from i will destroy you to cruise japanese these door crazy evolve, evolve and buyer. i swear to you. so if put it this way, if we redid colombo with the in, in our age,

the 1st thing would be putting that at the back on you there as well. because we came to a time is then when phil donahue interviewed president of on his show, where ted koppel wouldn't literally invite a russian correspondence or reporter on his show when we shared ballet. when we shared projects up in space, there was a time when, even with the soviet union, there was an a bridging that took place. now is it, it's just the opposite. it was, i would argue almost. it was better than in terms of understanding of part of the relations. and by the way you've, you've said at least 5 times, you're pushing back and you're not at all. i agree with you. okay, another one, tucker and carly tucker, carlson. just interview potent ok. there was, there was a say in a while back, let's go back in time. mike wallace was sitting on the floor when i had told a whole man, he says that if i do, please don't think there's a wrong way for people. then you're crazy. that's got to know how to do all the home anyways. these people know that was no problem. barbara walters interviewed carol castro. they go down the list. yes,

larry changed. interviewed chavez. you name it. but the thing is, is that look at the castro i interviewed garbage of, i interviewed a bunch of people who are so, but nora and i'm present no less. so throughout my career seems like i can do it back better. but do what i'm saying? i have to get it right today. no, i don't get you push the push that i like it will send you an honorary coupon or how's that? i'm going to give you that title and you can wear it with pride. that's line ladies and gentlemen. thanks a lot of we're out of time, but thanks for being our friend today. great comments, great conversation. before i go, i want to remind you of our mission. i mentioned just a little while ago where i do believe it's really important that we've decided on the world. gotta stop living in these little boxes as we saw in this newscast, to so live in boxes. i'm rick sanchez. this is direct impact

the the good, the purpose of the initial issue and what is patient's the essential of the younger civilians. protocols, young petition to the and chatting to the bus on the hands of showing shootings on accident. we have some sort of warning. i'm wondering if somebody wants to split

the items on short actually showed it will be something else of the most useful to the 23rd of january. so by knowing me to the expense the smoke, but i'm gonna use the isn't boy more as pretty as grammar and the bodies. you'd see the youth with a somewhere below. and that's the money need be leaving it. and then assuming anthony, ask my key at the united nation, then, you know, line continues and just as long as any young by that or can you. but the steps showing the sort of, you mean the southern,

the, of the, the know the spawns pres between paris and the, they know that the french president accuses you were paying countries of cowardice when it comes to the word we've crane the stable suddenly and they never heard this about how india is foreign policy, cheapest his wife relations with russia, despite weston prussia to change course. we discussed the issue with the spokes person for india is ruling political policy. b, j. p. b. not seeing any issue from the listing board does not see any certificate or dictation from the rest of the work regarding it with russia
