all issue when it comes to getting elected both bite and then from particularly our rich man. and you need either wealth or hefty blockers to see you through the months of campaigning. is there any way or run that, or is it just the nature of the base, paying for ads traveling from coast to coast, etc. and you, you need the pockets? well i wouldn't discount what's been happening this election with the uncommitted vote or the blank of old or i forget the category and other places. as you saw in michigan, 13 percent of the democratic primary voters chose not to. they chose none of the above. i think that's important to do. it's a way of using your vote to send a message that you're really dissatisfied in minnesota. it was 20 percent. it's been very high in other places. that's why i'm saying, i don't think this election process is quite as under control as they would like it to be, or they would have you to think. okay, i just want to find

a point. what measures do you think could increase voter turn item in gauge meant in us selections because it does seem to be suffering someone or i think the elections have to be transparent. i think the voters have to know that if there is a problem, there is a way to verify that the vote count is accurate. the fact that it seems so very rig from beginning to end, and not just at the polls. i mean, the news media coverage, the blocking out of the hunter bite and laptop story. i worked with laroche who was the candid it 8 times and called it and just completely blackballed and bill it not . you know, vilified. so i think that americans haven't very deep sense. it's not fair, it's not just and therefore they don't even participate in new york. we have voter turnout and some municipal elections be low. 15 percent. that means so don't trust it at all. so i think the number one issue is to make the elections

trustworthy. so the people have a sense that their vote counts that their voice matters. many thanks for your time and your thoughts. stay on, sorry. independent us senate candidates for new york state. thank you. i it's nice and another story to bring you at coming up in the next half hour. lots ahead at. but just to tell you that that is a rep for this at mid week news run that our social media channels have you covered for the days. big developments, give us a follow wherever you see that green and black, our teen logo. bice, the higher buddy up. there's a lot of news on this day program though we,

we now post to show every single day because there is a lot of news not weekly, but daily. and much of the reason that so many people that are watching this is because we hold no punches, so to look for it daily truth pump. number 14 was not the ukraine in energy company is being linked to terrorist attacks against russia. truth on number 2, for as most involved, but appears to have been funded by western possibly us sources. truth phone number 3. will this investigation lead to the biden barbarism, a connection? somehow we're asking, i'm rick sanchez. this is direct impact. the okay, let me take you through this because this thing seems to be building right. ever since the terrorist attack in moscow at the crocker city music hall. there have

been leads and revelations as to who was responsible and you know what that all happened. right? right. from the beginning, it seemed obvious, this was not a usually terrorist attack was obvious to most people. anyway. first of all, the attackers did not like theirs. they want their to sacrifice themselves for a cause. they were there to kill and then try and get away. that is not usual in these cases. then the admitted to being recruited and paid vac. there's about unusual because these cases most of us in this business have covered a lot of these terrorist attacks. i know i have, i haven't seen anything like this. then we learned that they were headed toward ukraine, while authorities followed and monitor their cell phone calls, which were being made in to your plane. that is not usual. well, if you have any of my colleagues here in the united states and other western media or even the u. s. government agencies have reported on any of that or even found

any of what i just said. curious, authorities in moscow investigating the attack did put out this official statements when we reported this, i think most people that quote, it says as a result of the work with the pain, the terrorist examination of the technical devices seems from them and analysis of information on financial transactions, evidence of their leads with ukrainian national list has been obtained. that was important when they said that right. it was kind of a breakthrough in the case. that was as far though, as russian investigators would go at the time, they didn't add anything else. now they are coming out with new information where they seem as a jazz that they're working on a link between the attackers and a specific very specific ukrainian company. was founded in 2002 or as moldings as an oil and natural gas company. originally owned

by ukrainian business person, make a lot sl caskey is his name. interestingly enough, he was also are you creating a government official at the time? who baseboards my m p. a registered in cyprus, a bridge has been steeped in corruption state lousy with corruption, as we would say here in the states. and it was about that time right after the u. s . government inspired to remove ukrainian president victor the out of uh could you uh pardon me. yeah. no, uh, coverage when vice president joe biden stepped into the picture. so this is when joe biden steps into the picture there after the the situation where the president was removed, it was essentially a us let go. he was made by that was the point man on ukraine for the united states. now, at the time, mister barton made frequent visits to your credit by his own account. he went there

at least a 1000 times from 2014 through early 2016. and that you should know. not so, coincidentally, is about the same time that his son, a hunter, got what appeared to be a token job working for verizon. verizon is a company that is produced as much as 1300000000 cubic meters of natural gas. generates revenues as high as half a $1000000000.00. now it is also being accused of producing something else. and that's why we're bringing you the story today. not just natural gas, but also terrorism. this link was disclosed publicly for the very 1st time by the moscow investigative committee spokespersons here she is told them by the okay, can use the city this, the brushing them group. would you put the was the in the slits slips. i'm

committed to what i see was was dental, go mozilla. i've seen them see the when you studies one will start moving in this the business city is to for football, shoot. you just got new skilled when use lots of checklist, it used to guzzle, combine, you would use my whole doing the solution not sitting through grain, not participating. you possibly, if he, if you supposedly, via associates delaney instead of just to just get hook the what i see. so she get upset, that was as a, you'll be dealing with. so there you go thought is there a linking where is not with terrorist attacks? now all moscow authorities do not, and this is important, they do not at this point directly type original to the crocus music call attack. to be fair, they do seem to suggest a pattern of associations between terrorist attacks and brisbin. the report also suggests that bert bob was not an independent actor. that in fact, may have been funneled millions and millions of us dollars through the quote

involvement of specific individuals from among government officials and public and commercial organizations in western countries slid same what was the one who used to be assuming is bit slow. let me issue non so what else that is good, but it is that your solution keeps to playing it if that and you said that this thing is english most serious, but i was needing you speak with me one of the little so shop, but it just was complete, leads is just a little sore throat, and before going to flushed it up, she has looked at me, you'll just get ahold of me is that's it stands up with us. so why is this really important? and this is why we want to bring you this. first of all, look, let's just be straight. while the involvement of any company, no less a ukrainian company would fives to the united states should spark global concerns when linked to terrorism period. the fact that it's but original, the fact the fact that this is more reasonable, st seems to make this story, obviously most more newsworthy and know where the right. why what?

because there is a direct link between the president of the united states, his son and barbarism bar, up to be clear. and again, i to be fair. while web link exist at the present time, there is nothing that connects the biden's to risk. most alleged association with terrorism, in other words, there's 2 stories here at the bottom connection. and then the fact that morrison was being tied to tears, we can not put those together and it would not be responsible to do so. journalist typically speaking, however, and, and as i mentioned earlier, there are plenty of lakes to the buttons and bridges. my and they are important. and let me take you through them. in 201400 biden's life appeared to be an absolute mess. it was drugs, alcohol, prostitution were all front and center in this. and the younger bibles wavered

wayward existence. that's when he was discharged from the navy, after being caught doing okay. and that's when he went to work for original. now just that story and of itself makes no sense, right? it still doesn't make any sense to me or i think anybody else, how could a person with that type of horrible record and reputation, end up working and even sit on the board. i'm a huge energy company. the answer his father was the vice president united states. and as i, for mentioned, had direct dealings with both the company and ukrainian officials. and since becoming president, the hunter issue has become embarrassingly front and center for the bottom administration. and although direct illegalities have not been proven, there remain open questions as to just how closely hunter, or for that matter, pressing a button were tied to her as well and its actions. which is why this new question

of potential links to terrorism becomes so important. and that's why we're reporting on this at this time. joining us down to break this down. i'm joined by front of the show, somebody who tries to clear up the gaps and there are plenty of them. i think in the story. international relations and security analyst mark, so the mark, thank you so much for joining us. rick. thanks for having me. it's always an honor and a pleasure to be on direct impact. i think it's really important for us to go through the things that have not been proven at this point. and i think the 2 things that i pointed out is, we're not, i don't think anybody at this point can say that there's a tie between the terrorism and the buttons. there is a tie between the buttons and we're risen level. and that's what makes the story so important. but mark, i think you'll agree with me on this. the fact that we're risible, for any company, no less or ukrainian company may have ties to terrorism,

is important enough for all the world to be paying attention to it. right. i'm sure i think you're right to point out that there are no direct connections identified yet, but there are plenty of indirect connection of the of bridge ma holdings as it has for its exist. there's been pretty much a black box slush fund for corruption and money laundering and making off the bulk payments to political figures inside and outside you. great hunter, bite in and jo biden's, business partner devin archer, being one of the to put them both were paid $1000000.00 a year for no show jobs on the board of directors to which they had no expertise whatsoever. yeah, it was a blake ones pen like operation last friday unless perhaps,

unless perhaps being an alcoholic and a drug addict makes you expert on energy matters. and of course i say that with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek. yeah, i don't know. maybe some of his drugs fuel prostitution, episode impressed some people. yes, i don't know um, but um, joe biden, at the time, was the vice president of the united states. and more than that, he was essentially acting as obama as the viceroy over you grand after the us backed over through. busy the government there in 2014. in fact, the joe biden brag about getting the prosecutor general of ukraine removed on his order on his threats. a prosecutor general, who had opened a corruption investigation into you, guessed it, or re small hold it. yeah. do you have any one taking

a look at your sons and business partners? uh, a little, uh, uh, source of, uh, extra curricular uh, income. but uh, i'm gonna, i'm gonna stop you for a minute. when get all that? i don't think you'd have to be an absolute moron or getting it or just not paying attention to not see. but there's some really questionable stuff that took place between the vice president, his son and brewer as well. but it's a giant leap to go from that to berrera's mother is involved in tears. the tax may have been involved in the quickest attack. and perhaps the president of the united states today may have some connection to that, that my friend is a hell of a revelation. and one that would send shockwave around the planet isaac to yeah, this is actually not so surprising that the reason why is involved in this the, the cameras, human ukraine for the last decade has repeatedly used you is,

this is right. who have paid them. basically, political money is to, to avoid some type of a persecution by the regime. and that has the euro's as off the books funds for a lot of black book activity. the former, the dissidence former ukrainian a. m p 's. i like their member of call congress andre. their kotch has specified how breeze more in particular, was used as such a vehicle to fund terrorist activities in russia and what he's talking about there . what, what the investigative committee they haven't specifically yet identified. the crocus city hall effects, although the context of which the announce that means they're definitely looking in that direct. yes, but it's not worded widely in the western mainstream media, but there have been dozens of terrorist attacks in russia over the last couple of

years here. it's in the former east ukraine over the last decade targeting public figures, political figures active as a journalist. anyone who is in opposition, one form or the other, you know, freedom of speech and all against the regime in keys of the car bombing of diarrhea do not the russian philosopher and journalist a friend of mine by the way. uh. 1 that is, uh, probably one of the activities from the description, the, the, the terrorist bombing of the cafe targeting the former east, ukrainian, a war blogger lot, then to tar city is another search example. this frictions of the investigative committee gave of the type of terrorist activities, very specifically point to events like this. and like i said,

there have been dozens of such incidents. and it, it is. we've got testimony from a former ukrainian m, p, a district. and now you know the evidence, the financial links of the investigation and when you have a company like breeze more intimately correct, connected with the care, resumes, government and intelligence services. and you have the us funding the entirety of the camera, james economy, governments salaries in business. i would venture to say that the connections, while you know how plausible degrees or agrees of separation, there is a legs if not direct links. yeah, and i think you're right, i want to take a break. i want to come back and explore this a little bit more. but i think you've made it a little more clear to us now that there has been already and existing association between ridgemont and some malady, some very questionable actions,

including in fact terrorism. so that's where we're going to start the conversation . um, hopefully when we come back with mark, you're watching a direct impact. i'm rick sanchez and we're going to stay with this as we try and break it down for you. we'll be right back the the, what is part of the, the employee would post good. isn't the, the place you of us in that, in the word part? is it something deeper, more complex. might the present good? let's stop without please. is that scope out of the

the the, the, the back i'm rick sanchez. i'm joined by uh, analyst marks la boda talking about what is a very important story that could send i said this before, and i mean a global shock waves. the fact that original

a company out of ukraine is tied to terrorism in russia has been in the past and now could possibly be investigated as well for the moscow terrorist attack. yes, the same verisk my that is also tied to the president the united states and his son . when you put that all together, it looks nefarious. but i think mark that we need to be real careful here. i look, let me just state this very clearly. the fact that any which guy or powerful guy in the world would get a cushy job for his idiot, son is not news. and i think that in and of itself is like, where too often the media runs with the story. i think it's more important that he got his any and strong a job working for a company which has various overtones and has done some really horrible things is extremely corrupt. and now we're talking about that company having something to do

with terrorism. see, as a journalist, as i look at the story, i'm thinking, okay, now you've got me. now you've got me because before then i think it was just political hackery. i'm on the wrong. and i think is there's a little bit more than that. i would say simply because of jo biden's intimate connection with the over throw all the ukrainian government that immediately proceeded that uh that that to me makes it l of bates. it about a typical political scandal in the united states that for so there is a, there is a word policy aspect of it, there for me. i'm just thinking that when you and i are talking about now though, is something which could have the kind of repercussions, but takes it out of the republican party or the democratic party, which by the way, pass the world could give are about uh, you know, water pump right, this, this,

that you and i are talking about now is not about, you know, the democrats and biden, and the republicans, and trump, and all that other jazz that some people get very jazzed up about, which i try to stay away from on the show this is serious, this is, this is a kind of stuff that can start world war 3 my front. it is absolutely, especially when you consider that some of the terrorist attacks and russia, like the unwilling suicide side bombing of the cried me in bridge. that has been admitted to via us, back to the gym and our, our major international events. well that's and again and then this is i'm glad we're having this conversation. we keep hearing the horrible things that our government is doing in our name, in places like gaza in places like ukraine in russia. as a matter of fact, with some of the bombings that we now see there across the board. and if this is somehow proven. busy or investigated further, this even takes that to

a whole new realm, which is why i think we can't spend enough time talking about it and hopefully putting it to bed. hopefully it didn't happen. but if it did, what kind of repercussions usually coming out of the social security analyst? yeah, i, i think there's so many repercussions from so many things going on with russia and in the united states and nato on the precipice of direct hop on war. this is almost a footnote to be perfectly honest. it certainly adds to the tensions. but when, when uh, you know, uh, nato country leaders are openly talking about sending troops into the combat. the, the terrorist bombings at this point. just become an icing on the cake. but i'm going to disagree with you, and here's why i'm going to disagree with you. because countries can always say, well that's military matters. that's official government work. we're sending troops

were doing that. and that also seems like it's regular new speak. but if there's one thing that this government, the government of the united states, i'm probably a block from the white house where i'm standing right now has always said, is terrorism is a different deal. terrorism is this for society. it's the ones that we're going after. it's the biggest problem we have on this planet right now, is, there is proof that the united states of america, this government is somehow tied to terrorism per se, and a terrorist act that's different that i do believe mark, i disagree with this, this, this becomes a much bigger deal, but just sending groups are not sending groups to some country. we shouldn't be even involved of the see, rick, i got to see that most of the rest of the world looks at the us and sees the biggest state sponsor of terror for decades. in the world, from the us support of the g hotties and moves that had been enough gattis down to the support of head shopping suicide bombers in syria to the support of l. k. the

affiliates the over throw the government in libya, the support of the cost of all liberation army, which they had previously themselves identified as terrorist until they became jo, politically useful proxies in serbia. and the list goes on and on. what i'm afraid you're in people's government is a lot more intimately connected with terrorism around the world. then the west mainstream media usually wants to acknowledge exactly and let me, let me, let me put on, let me put a punctuation on that. i want to show you something, it would seem to me, the possibility that the government of the united states could be tied to a company. now, being linked to terrorism is as important as it gets yet here in america. i doubt that anyone knows anything about that, mark it, then why? because it's going to be buried or missed reported by media type. some tend to get their marching orders from the same people who may be responsible for the ties to a resume. so what are what americans know about, you know, what they know about they know about eclipse yesterday. that's what they know about

why. because that's what the us media really got excited about yesterday. by the way. i'm not saying it wasn't cool to report on the eclipse. it was a case story, but to see how far our members of the media want to cover this thing. well, generally ignoring the other important story, is that the one mark and i are having a semi argument about right mountain. that seems silly to me anyway. look at this. this is cnn's anchor team yesterday. look at this spark covering the stories and costumes dressed as the sun or something they did so in costume, to show how the moon covered the sun. really, they couldn't get to the tennis balls to do that. why not use to tennis balls and call me old fashion? but this is stupid and not incredible. then there's this guy. here's a weather guy yesterday crying on the air. less of this. the tip and leave a baby the previous deck would be. but because you get actually looked up and see

what was the kind of a time and date, but we could see that, hey, was really crying over and eclipse. you want to cry about something. i could show you some palestinian babies and positions and, and conditions that you would really want to cry about. i can show you some of the situations going on around the world right now, including the one market are talking about right now. maybe that's what we should be crying about. i don't get it mark, but you're right, and i think you made your strong his point. when you said to me, the media doesn't care about these things doesn't know about these things. and unfortunately, to few people in america, do, i'll give you the last word, rick. yeah, the clips you just showed me, you know, that's the actually nothing. no, it's as old as history. this type of distraction in slight of hand. the romans call the bread and circus they sure did mark marks about a one of the best guess we get on the show and we often have great conversations. i'm so glad we do it so transparent. thank you. my friend. before we go, i want to remind you of our mission here. simple, really? we try and this i low the world. gotta stop living in these little boxes. we should

be able to talk about everything because truths don't live in boxes. i'm rick sanchez. so what we try to do here on the rest of the the, what is part of the visit that the employee would posted isn't the defense you of us and that in the word part is it something deeper, more complex might be present to that stuff without collision is that spelled part of as the,

the washington dismisses a ball michelle statement from moscow that accuses a ukrainian company link to jo bikers sold of sponsoring terror attacks against russia. south south, a republican senator bloss washington for spending too much showing ukraine as it goals for taxpayers dollars to be used on solving month thing. domestic problems, my staff looked into it is about 300 be in their best estimate. right now we're, we're printing our bar and $80000.00 per 2nd. 4.6000000 a minute. we can't sustain that much longer. we gotta find the best way to spend our money, switzerland, and on say, mid june as a date for a peace film. it.
