11:00 pm
the the, everybody just want to start off reminding you once again that we post the show every day. now weekly is how we used to do it. daily is how we do it. now, thanks to you. you asked for it. so you're getting it. we hold no punches, so look for a coupon. number one us president joe biden gives hope to julian assigned trip a number to the australian prime minister says when it comes to a song, enough is enough truth, bob. number 3, when you see how mr. biden says what he says, you may question his resolve to do it. i'll let you judge for yourself. i'm rick sanchez. this is direct to impact the
11:01 pm
so the president of the united states was um, walking away after meeting and giving a discussion, press conference with the japanese prime minister for me. ok shita. they were at the white house. when a reporter asked him a question about joe, you know, such? now, interestingly enough, the question seems to come out of the field. here's why it happened though, the government almost drill. yeah. in case you hadn't heard, which is where a sondors from. and this is important, we'll talk about that some more later. is uh, the government astray as formerly requesting, formally requesting that the prosecution of a songy stop once and for all space. why? well, because beside assigns is cause and it's become really, really popular and you know where it's become really popular australia in australia
11:02 pm
that causes very but both among the people and the members of parliament. the members of parliament just recently overwhelmingly voted for a call for him to be free. you know, they all started in parliament. in case you want to give too much credit to the prime minister. look at where this is coming from. let's talk about the people of australia. as for the people of australia, in a recent poll, 79 percent, almost 80 percent of the people of australia say it's time to do a song his freedom. so the people of australia are saying, why the hell is this guy not what, why is this guy in prison? the parliament of australia is asking the same thing. people all over the world are asking the same thing. now remember, australia is an important us our so maybe that's why in the past they didn't give a crap what their own people thought it was more important for them to have good relationships with united states. right. or maybe not. so as the president is
11:03 pm
walking with the japanese prime minister, a reporter shouts, this request from australia and he does it. of course the reporter in the form of the question, here it is, the did you get that? that was it? i mean, it's the whole shipment, kaboodle man biden uttered just 3 words, 3 words we are considering it. that's what he says. and even that's a huge change of direction for a government that has wanted a saw. and i had, they've suggested us officials, i've actually suggested that guy should be in prison for at least a 150 years. for a 150 years. there's been talk that he should be executed if he comes to the united states. that's what some of the argument with the brits was about the they don't want him to be executed,
11:04 pm
but my god. why essentially for revealing embarrassing and secret but factually correct information about what the us government did in iraq and afghanistan. now i mentioned this earlier, but this is really important to the rest of the world. it's a no brainer. a no brainer. busy massage has suffered enough, but in the u. s, where the media is controlled in large measure by the military industrial complex and its state sponsors. c, i, a state department, whitehouse, etc. it's not so clear to people who live here in the united states because that's not what they hear on the news or on any shows or in general media. assange has been held in a higher high security prison in london now since he was arrested. that was that 2019 before that he spent 7 terrible years hiding out. most of it, living inside some ecuador, and embassy room that smell. busy according to people with their pretty bad and he
11:05 pm
was stuck in there, he couldn't move to avoid extradition. well, mister biden's comment. if it didn't seem like an enthusiastic confirmation, it was enough to elicit this response from the australian prime minister. here it is. and i believe this must be brought to a conclusion. and that mister a son said so ready by the significant price and enough is enough. there's nothing to be gained by mister ins assigned, continued incarceration in my very strong view. and i'll put that is a view of the strain government kind of hard to understand what language is speaking. but anyway, the words being picked from that carefully read statement enough is enough to hear that enough is enough. expect to see those words picked up as a rallying cry in the science defense. i wouldn't be surprised if you start seeing it on t shirts. but look once again how mr. biden's response. maybe it's just his old
11:06 pm
age, but i think it's worth asking me, or maybe it's just me. i have some guess i'm gonna have asked that my answer this question. watch this again, watch this again. does he even know what he's really responding to here? the i don't know. busy maybe even more encouraging for backers of massage is the domestic and geo political pickle. the us now finds itself in that may cause it to do this to, you know, to, to throw a bone at the global south countries as well as young voters in the us who are overwhelmingly pro a such. now think about this. us is getting hammered, hammered for helping the massacre. tens of thousands of women and children and 1000 . it is being questioned world wide for feeding and prolonging the war in ukraine.
11:07 pm
all this, while countries like india, china, russia continue to be seen as counter weights to be very militant policies of us gemini, a, for all those reasons the, by the ministration appears to be in desperate need of a when something, anything that could make it look like if not so uncool or if nothing else at least reasonable right. and many believe that freeing the font frame julian massage could offer just that. that's my take. joining us now to discuss that role, syndicated columnist, author and award winning cartoonist dam azhar, writer journalist expert on the us constitution. hey, let's start there. is this really a constitutional issue? the world sees it as just common sense? then you say what? oh, it's certainly cruel and unusual punishment. i would say. uh yeah,
11:08 pm
i mean this is a, this is american paranoid. it's worse. uh the, uh, uh, a sauce has been, uh, has been, he's been uh, slandered, abused in prison for a dozen years. in fact, today is 5th anniversary and da, march prison in london about before then he was spent 70 years in the ecuadorian embassy under very uncomfortable circumstances. and he's been called the russian agents. he's been called a uh a, he's a called a threat, a physical threat to american intelligence officers. it's all complete nonsense that joe biden called him a hi tech terrace. uh it was, uh, its been extraordinary so. so is this a certainly for the cruel and unusual category? i was thinking also in terms of international law. as i look at this story, it, you know, it's funny. i've been following the story as long as you guys have, and maybe i'm just not the smartest guy in the world, but, and i'm just now putting together the fact that this guy from australia,
11:09 pm
he's an australian citizen. why is it that the laws of the united states and great britain and everybody else's laws except australia, as laws, are the ones that have been used all this time to prosecute this man? um, why is it taking so long for us trying to stay up, stand up and say to, hey, this is our citizen with that. what you guys doing over there to yeah, well, if i were in australia national, i would be extremely displeased with the failure of my government to stand up for the rights of my co national. right. i mean it's, it's not, it doesn't speak very highly of the australians looking after their people and that's it. what, what has changed your politics, australia, for much of a period that mr. a sounds has been incarcerated for over the last 12 years. there was a right wing, conservative government in power there, so they didn't really care and they cared far more about their relationship with
11:10 pm
the united states. then they did about mr. assigned. even though i mean, look, here's the face. mr. song doesn't owe anything to the united states to its laws at all. i mean, this is, this is as outlanders as if any of the 3 of us were suddenly arrested. i me to choose a country randomly under paraguay in law for violating paraguay of national security with respect to paraguay. i have no loyalty to paraguay. i've never been to paris, but i don't have. i don't care about paragraphs against the an neither does during the sod aside from having visited the united states. sure. does he have any legal? he shouldn't be subject to us law. this is, it's a, it's an absurdity. what other countries do this no more? yeah, i was taking it back by your choice of countries. by the way, i was as i started to hear you make your argument. i was wondering, i wonder what country he's going to pick. and when you, when you pick paragraphs to eric ok, why not?
11:11 pm
um i did mentioned something in my story as i was writing the story and i was briefing myself and doing my own research. i came across and obviously i googled you know, his standing in australia and when i, when i saw that that recent poll they did, we're almost 80 percent of the people in australia are saying, here's one of us. he needs to be free. let this guy go. i think maybe that and the fact that the parliament, the members of parliament got together and said they put out a call for him to be freed as well. don't you think damn, that may have moved this prime minister as well. and oh yeah, surely, course, i mean, yeah. and it moves uh buttons as well too because you know, and, and australia as part of the orchestra alliance, the australia u. k. u. s alliance. and it's very important to the us, very important to the, to the anti chinese constellation is putting together. so therefore keeping the
11:12 pm
australians happy as a very high priority, as far as buying is concerned. uh so yeah, he wants to, uh, he wants to definitely definitely has to us drilling and public opinion on his mind . you know, i, i said i use the word cool at the end of my story. i did it for a reason. i chose that word very carefully if you look at the world that is. 2 really the global self, any place, but maybe the united states. it's kind of cool to support julian assigned. it means you are right up. it means you know what's going on. it means you stand for a sense of freedom in fairness, right? and, and i, and i say that because it hurts me to say it is because i'm an american. i love this country, but we are just so on. cool. we are not cool it is cuz we don't get it. you stop on the street and ask americans about julian as long as you think he's some bank robber or something. and that, how do we get to this place and how do we change it? make data. i mean, i'll give both you guys a crack of this to well, i don't know how we change it. i mean,
11:13 pm
the problem is that the americans are incredibly propagandized by corporate mainstream media. and that's not changing any time soon. that's why people are getting this ridiculous message while the rest of the world is getting the truth. i mean, you know, americans aren't stupid, they're just brainwash. yeah. and it's like, i think if they get the, if they get the fax, they hear the fax then they'll arrive at the same conclusion. is everyone else? yeah, they're busy, they work. i mean, you've got to work a lot of jobs in this country to be able to pay your bills. so you know, you just listen to whatever the hell, anderson cooper or sean hannity or some other idiot on the cable news tells you, and that's what you think the truth is. i mean, and i, and i guess that's where we are there. right. a yeah. i mean, mer, america is an empire. uh, and, uh, and empires. um, you know, uh, uh, you know, export violence in a home. they keep their, their people, uh, poor and uninformed and uh, and propaganda propagandized as a texas. uh so the,
11:14 pm
you know, the americans have little ideas going on on the world except when their sons and daughters are sent off to war. and they have little idea of who julia size is and they figure that, you know, if the government says a bad guy, then who are they to say otherwise. uh and the democrats, by the way, had been as bad as this, if not worse, in the re eval against. okay. yeah, the, it was a brand new quote in the high tech terrorist that hillary clinton was, you know, part of the lynch mob. uh, and the democrats spent years trying to pin the get the crime of russian collusion on him. that was the whole. that was a major part of the uh, the muller report. uh, it was completely untrue. there's no evidence whatsoever that he was that the russians said him information that was the weakest part of the muller report, but his reputation has been stained and he'll never outlive it. it's been astonishing high ted rall and uh and then um,
11:15 pm
we thank you for taking us through this part when we come back. so here's what i want to do. i want to start breaking down the case. what are the chances that this will see to fruition? joining us on his actual freedom, we're gonna talk about that on the other side. stay right there, do not go away. the russian states never is as tight as i'm one of the most sense community best. nothing was all sense enough in the, in the 65 with disappearing keys 195 and speed. what else holes question about this? even though we will then in the european union, the kremlin media mission, the state on russia to day and split the ortiz full neck, even our video agency,
11:16 pm
roughly all the band on youtube, the senior center for question, did you say steven twist, which is the, is a lot, it's can be started by line piece can be started by truly important. some were never the kind of of stations that transparency is next 40 range on mystic, patrice then just succeeded in finding documents that existed in making them available to the world. populate. i mean, what could be more moving box by publishing information and sharing information
11:17 pm
with the public? he was exercising the rights for a speech he did so in the public interest. so mom realized tends to me and, and, and honestly, to relate continuously. i know why advice may attempt to know who is the guy that illegal anymore. why sweetheart adjustments for to be on box weighing a 175 used to go through the extensions. are we going to lift that, stay the so the news is that the present united states when asked if he would consider this uh, this request from the australian government to finally just enough is enough. let join us on the go. the president of united states that and we quote we're considering it makes it almost sounds like he had already had
11:18 pm
a previous discussion about it or maybe not. i mean, god bless them. and we're talking about the, you know, a president to sometimes look like he's barely awake and we're all going to get there because he's old. so as i watched the video, i wasn't quite sure what 10, starting with you, if, if you're good enough to join instead of and then both. what do you think the biden is really enthusiastic about doing this? or do you think he even knows the case? do you think he's cool enough to get it? and do you think he's going to see this through as well to buttons? not going to be able to really buy any pool or the cool? that's right. that's not gonna ever have. you're probably not pick about grandpa ipad, even if he releases assigns and goes out partying with them. i just don't think that's gonna be making cool. but i do think he's aware of it as ministrations.
11:19 pm
obviously, on top of this, i would take this very seriously. i'd bare minimum is a guess like sort of like when he came out in favor of gay marriage and when he was vice president under obama, and then they kind of have to make it so. so i'm very optimistic here. nothing is a 100 percent, but i would say it's a, it's a very much better to have than 50 percent that julian is going to get reunited with his wife and, and child after this in due course. which way overdue is discussing. that would be really clear that he didn't deserve a single 2nd. yeah, behind bars. he didn't come across. is there a possibility there? cause that these things sometimes get orchestrated and we don't even know about this, but they do. i mean, there's a possibility that someone in the obama, pardon the, the, the, the by president, by the signs you put obama in my head. the president button staff picked one of these reporters. if there was a favor, ask this question. if he's gonna give you an answer, as quite, i've seen is done,
11:20 pm
i come, i, this is a business i, i come from. so they, they plan to story. he answers it because they want it to get this in the news. that's a possibility. could be a possibility, he didn't ask the question, the president didn't understand them, and it gave them a cogent answer. there's also the possibility, in fact, that mr. barton didn't understand the question, but just said were considering it because that's what they tell them to say to all the questions. so them a b or c? and i know, i think it's, i think is bonafide. i think he heard the question, i think is his answer made sense? i think it's worth taking its face value. i think that button is considering the so it's a good sign. it's a very hopeful sign that maybe uh, maybe the persecution of a of joint massage may be finally coming to an end. i think i've, i agree with ted, there's every reason for optimism and you look at joe biden. he's, he's facing a brutal campaign. yeah. you know, he's, he's neck and neck with uh, with um,
11:21 pm
with donald trump and, uh, and he's got a lot of things going against them in the last thing he needs is some kind of huge lean, messy trial in which they, they, hillary and torture. some highly i deal with dick reporter. yeah. that's the last thing he needs about the internet and about the us as militaristic track record, which happens to be right now in the news both and gaza avenue. great. so let's go ahead and heighten the very thing which is making people not like you. right? yeah, you know, it comes to add, you know, this whole, your con, more monitoring military. you know, b s, i mean, it just doesn't play well anymore. people are sick and tired of this kind of rhetoric of at a high tech terror terrorist at a time when the us is applying is real with 2000 pass bunker, buster bombs, you know that that's real terrorism. you know, so the, you know, it just,
11:22 pm
the optics are really, really bad. so, you know, and i think even joe biden realizes the okay, fair fair, what, it's just it, what i see him sometimes. i'm not sure he's all there. and by the way, sometimes i'm not all there. so we're, we all have moments like that. so it's not just to pick on the president buddy as an older man. fine. let's talk about the case the of the holding in this case. dan will stay with you and you write a lot about legal stuff. do you believe that there really is from a legal standpoint, looking at this case down the road that there's a possibility that within the next weeks, months, whatever that we will see. those come to fruition and take us through how that happens of what i saw as far as i know, it's very simple. i mean the, the us simply would just inform the british that they have no desire to extra dice assigns any more. and that idea for he's free to go or that could be so kind of deal worse on, you know, i would agree to, to leave for,
11:23 pm
for australia. that's probably the likely this outcome. but you know, as ted pointed out, a size um he didn't commit his crimes on us territory. yeah. he was in europe the entire time. he was, uh, you know, it's, it really is like picking up uh, you know, you know, to using, you know, one of us, of violating a paraguay in a security law. and it just makes no sense. but what it is is the us is not paraguay, the us is the global head, your mom. and therefore when it says, you know, jump, everybody, uh, you know, asked how high with the brakes use us. very small number of acceptance. this is so is there any reason why that is, is there any way that there could be some kind of ops that go to this? i'll give you an example. the british say, you know what, know we're, we're going to hold them a little longer. could they hold up a little longer, do we know the answer to any of these questions? i think suite is done. busy they dropped those, those, those rape charges that were there several years back. but could somebody else come
11:24 pm
forward and say no, hold on. we're going to stop this. i did this thing i've had so many stops and starts. you know, pardon me for not being optimistic, but i'm just wondering, is there anything else that going to happen out there a dead? well, let me see radically, anything's possible. maybe he like double parked one time when he was on vacation room parents. the thing for him to pay the rental car bill, but you know, as far as we know, there's no jurisdiction, as he pointed out, the, you know, the, the, the scandinavians are looking for him anymore. and it seems pretty clear that you know, that they sort of as a corollary to what dan said about us being a hatch them on us wants him to go home to australia, then he's going to go home to us fairly or even on the stream. the unlikely chance and someone else wants to take him into custody. what about australia? is there a possibility? they're gonna know i can't see them doing anything other than having a parade when he gets there right. then i would imagine not. i mean,
11:25 pm
i don't know that could be so kind of a deal where he's i didn't, i don't know, i'm speculating, a house arrest some kind of uh, additional penalty slap and the rest of us really and government may choose to apply. i really have no idea, but i sorry, i might hope that he goes home. he's re reunited with his family. he gives, you know, he's a, goes out in the lecture circuit. he rides the best selling book. that'd be the greatest outcome possible. do you both agree that the united states might want, might be inclined to do this because the united states right now just needs a when they need something that doesn't make them look as horrible as they look right now in the eyes of the world. and especially the global south community, either one of you. i think it's more about likes, it's not a when it, this is about damage control. the julian a, something has been a fiasco. it's been a thorn in the side of the bible ministration since day one. really, truly, i mean,
11:26 pm
even for donald trump, there were expectations of he would have let a sergeant go and pardon him in the waning days, isn't ministration. but of course he was distracted tremendously by january 6th and subsequent impeachment. so i think this is about on doing a bad thing. you can't score when you're in his name or any doctor the poll then of 30 seconds you get the last word a good. so i was just want to point out that the, the us as really disgraced itself. but boy has a saw, has gone through the ringer. i mean, this guy has an yeah, not by the most powerful country and the on honor as he has been physically harmed, he's mentally harmed. it's been extraordinary one man against an empire. he's amazing to us. right. yeah. he is, it is an amazing story. it will make a hell of a book and a hell of us and a hell of a movie. my, thanks to both of you. thank you, dan. thank you, ted, for your wisdom and the conversation. so here's what we do. and before we go,
11:27 pm
we want to remind you of our mission simple. really, we try to do this, this show to basically the side of the world. try not to live in little boxes where we all think, as we're told, or as we think we have to face truths, don't live in little box as needed to we. that's what we base our show on. i'm rick sanchez. this is the director of the
11:28 pm
the vanity fair reports of former president brock obama has been working as a pod cast or a netflix producer, an outdoor documentary filmmaker, and of course, an author since leaving the white house 8 years ago. however, a recent announce trip to downing street does supposedly have tea with british
11:29 pm
prime minister richardson ark has caused speculation, or just how involved the former president is, but the president's domestic and foreign policy on sky. now here's an on this edition of $360.00 view. we're going to discuss if there's a 1st term of the bottom ministration is really the 3rd term of rock obama. let's get started. the i think it's safe to say, regardless of which side of the aisle you identify with that the re election of joe biden is not going as easy as democrats. we're hoping, even though we still have several months to get through until election day, a clear sign that democrats are starting to panic is the emergence of former presidents on the campaign trail. most recently, president, buying along with house speaker nancy plus and former president brock obama wasting video of celebrating the 14th anniversary of the affordable care act,
11:30 pm
which is an act which at the time was started popular republicans believe it was the main motivation for democrats losing control of congress in 2010, and even the white house in 2016. but regardless, this gave former president brock obama, the chance to publicly show his face grad, even though, according to the republican presidential nominee. donald trump a bite and isn't smart enough to be doing this stuff on his own. in fact, trump is insisted, biden is nothing more than a puppet, and is rock obama its operation. obama has plenty to deal with it. i told him i call him biden's boss. it's terms police and other global conflict like the ones now curry and ukraine, israel and gaza could sooner wrapped the president. brock obama has only twice visited the white house this year and supposedly warrant presidential candidate bided. he could lose the white house.
