trees purchased around $10000000000.00 in l. n. g, from russia equal to 15 percent of the countries minute tree budget. so where does this leave us was concerned go euro poked on l. n g became its top allergy supplier and convince them to build a multi $1000000000.00 infrastructure, which might not even be necessary in the long run. meanwhile, they are shutting down any new projects and russia is still doing business with the europeans. well, at least with russia, one thing we'll search and see on limited gas always but say well for on financial comments, i said jim rogers, he believes biden's re election phase a driving the l. n. g export pools says or election come in november, the united states, and many, you're not as dates. politicians are only worried about the election. they faced with this. they can get more volumes in america. it will help them when the election. that's all they care about, right. now somebody only cares about voters,

he doesn't so much care about ordinary people and what they want, he wants to, he does days that he think will help him when the election in november the well right, especially america is basically latrice in europe. world has much too much debt, now we're going to have a huge debt prices sometime in the next 2 or 3 years. so american, the all politicians who do not understand them are going to have a serious, serious problem. when the death crisis, he is, i don't know to 2 or 3 years or now all politicians are going to wish they had focus so. ready as a dad is higher than is ever been in world history and is going to lead to a serious, a very serious problem for everybody. thanks for joining us. they are now see international coming up next, the latest episode of direct impact. and we're back with more the latest news, and just on the 1st

the, the, the body of this is direct impact. and this is what we're going to be talking about . the, that's just a clip that i prepared for you. it's, it's a scene that gets absolutely crazy in the french parliament. i'm going to show you the whole thing. i'm rick sanchez. this is direct impact. let's do the the. all right, that's what we're going to begin in the french parliament. part of what you just saw a little while ago. so the french m p's are having this very serious discussion by

the way, about joining spain and ireland and who was in norway. right. norway was the 3rd country. those countries just recognized as you saw here, we, we showed you that report, they recognized palestine, and now the french are arguing that they should do the same, but they should join those countries. well, that's when all hell breaks looks here. it is. about 13 very my laptop so

the most of that screaming, by the way, what did you. ringback guy who was holding up the palestinian flag. well, that's what all the fuss was about. this guy's name is a set of john dillard j, and he has now been suspended. he's been thrown out of the parliament for uh for holding up the flag. now keep in mind, a 145 over the 193 countries. at the in the un. i've recognized palestine. southern countries in europe are, are, are starting to join in, which is what is making israel and the united state. it's bad crap, crazy with anger, they feel like they're being defied by these countries. so here's why this friend seeing that i just showed you is so important. right? france is a g 7 country. france is a g southern country, no g,

7 country has recognized palestine. and if they do that, if they break the ice, if the french do so, they would be the 1st so, so it looks like each and every day as we and others report on this, things are picking up steam, momentum wise against israel. it seems manila. yeah. right, it's funny about the palestine flag when you contrast it to nancy pelosi unfurling this gigantic, ukrainian flag in congress as you might like hot about that same or right. like well yeah, it was a plot. it was met with applause and what have you. but here we are one tiny palestinian flag and they go bananas well loves the french have a, a history of revolution. i mean, contrary to what we think about europeans and i think a lot of our americans opinions about europeans are attributable attributable to, to how we view the british on like the british,

the french don't take stuff lying down read. i mean, look at the non stop yellow, best protest before co bedhead. i think the palestine issue is pushing the people of france to the brink. i mean they, they were already wary of what was happening in ukraine and russian media being shut down to control the narrative. but palestine images can't be stopped of social media, rick. so they're at a break, and i have a guest coming up in a little while, who is in many ways, agreeing with what you say that this seems to be non stop at this point. i don't know what the french are going to decide. they seem to be moving in that direction . we'll continue to follow it for you here on direct impact. we're going to talk now about a decision that seems to come out of left field. by the way. it's actually kind of surprising to me in particular, because i happen to be born in this country. it's not every day we see the us state department do something that makes sense. but i think we have a winner here. there's there as well. you're reading the us has had an economic, strangled home on the cuban economy for more than 60 years now. dating back to when

j. f. k was the president of the united states. it is purely a political tool that has been use mostly by presidents and senators. and members of congress to get elected while doing nothing for the people of cuba or the people of the united states. but believe it or not, the u. s. is now loosening this embargo by allowing cubans who are part of the burgeoning private business sector. they're to have bank accounts in the united states for the 1st time ever. so they can conduct business. this is a big deal these small, but is this isn't cuba by the way, we have created a flourishing entrepreneurship with the permission of the cuban. 1 government there called me payments. here we go. meet the most employee, nearly a quarter of a 1000000 people in cuba. more than 70 percent of them left the job working for the state workers salaries. i can, the payments can be significantly higher than those of state phone companies. the payments are expected to account for 10 percent of q, bus, gd,

be in 2023. it's amazing. these guys just started putting up little businesses and before you knew it, people were going and buying their stuff from them rather than from government stores. so it's want to look, it breaks my heart to see how the cuban people, my family have suffered millions of them. they've left the island because of the economic conditions. but you know why i think this thing that i'm reporting on that we're reporting on right now is, is in the right direction. vanilla. it's being criticized by both. it's being criticized by the left and it's being criticized by right. and in my book, usually once when, when it gets criticism from both sides, that means it's a good idea and i agree that's exactly it. if you are getting flack from both sides all sides, that means you're doing something right. so why does moves to loosen this banking regs, regulation with non governmental people? i think it's important to highlight that part. it has to be non governmental people

on the island is a step in the right direction to build on what the obama administration had done. installing ties that the trump administration then quickly reversed your while this is a step i would say in the right direction, i would still be wary. given what we just saw, the us led g 7 baxters do in dealing rush and state money and, and their interest just last week. so i would say this is a cautionary tale. i think it's celebrate but, but be where you say into your, you're right, you're right. it's something that we need to watch. i think it's important and i think it's a step in the right direction. also in the news, the traveler found the president donald trump is finally come to an end brookside, presenting their closing arguments. and now it's in the hands of a jury to decide if mr. trump broke the law when he paid off a porn star. so the voters wouldn't find out about what ever relationship he had with her if the jury thinks he did it for political reasons. and that's proven, then they could find them guilty of campaign finance law violations, if not, hold on to just the payoff. and it's really not against the law. that's what's key

here. we can show you the closing arguments, and by the way, they went on forever because there were no cameras in the court room. so instead, we're going to let you hear from the proxies for both sides. here are donald trump, jr. and robert de niro. it is insanity. it is an embarrassment. it's an abomination to democracy into our republic. and yet it continues. everyone in this case was conflicted, and it hinges on one man who's not just a lawyer convicted, someone who has lost his lo license has been disbarred. somebody would serve jail time for lying before congressional bodies and that's it. that's where we are today in america. the trump returns, so the white house, you can test these freedoms goodbyes, that we all take for grant and elections. forget about it that's over, that's done. if he gets in, i can tell you right now, he will never leave friends and we want him running this country are saying,

i'm not leaving. i'm dictator for life. i hope this new ad campaign campaign reach is outside the bubble to remind supporters aboard a danger he is to our lives. i don't know about you, but all i get here is the hot dig in the back. by the way, closing arguments went on for like 10 hours. can you have to bring in that jury anyway, rick, you know, you know, what else i noticed behind bobby, to narrow is that the man with all the tattoos. that guy is one of the guys from the capitol hill police. he was there. so it's important. yeah, yeah. it's important to note who's on whose side, right to do it to mean to police? no 3 actually were there with him. apparently, they say they're on fight inside, which why is there, why is this political i it's american?

well, i mean, when it is political the case, i mean, if you look at this from the lens of, of, let's say, a latin american country, it what it looks like is the current person and power that be joe biden, is using legal, like a legal gymnastics move to take down his biggest opposition leader, which is donald trump. but i think more funny about this is the celeb celebrity versus celebrity. because remember, before donald trump became a politician, he was a celebrity. so i think a lot of these hollywood leads feel like they can talk about it like this is, you know, on par with what they know, which i don't, i don't really thought, i'm not sure there's a difference to the politician in the hollywood elite anymore. i think they're all actors as far as i'm concerned. i'm pretty sure what the final thing international piece summit soon taking place in switzerland. it's going to try and come up with a and into the conflict in ukraine. all the big western powers are being invited. i don't know if you guys have heard about this, but the southern, the us, the brits are all coming guess who's not invited to this thing the russians. so

it's a piece summit between the russians. a new crane, new cranes going, but the russians aren't invited. isn't that kind of like having a football game between real madrid and manchester united but not inviting real madrid or, or maybe not inviting manchester united. i mean, here's how the kremlin is reacting. they say to seriously talk about these questions without the participation of our country is absolutely absurd. but wait evening, that's curious. what did this? i got another one for you. see that the king of bahrain is holding a piece of it to discuss a piece, deal to end the god of a massacre and get so he's inviting to leave that discussion. the russians in the former president, bowden. i mean, you can't make this stuff up. manila, think about this for a minute. so tell me is not invited to a summit on the war. his country is fighting, but they're invited, but he's invited to a summit to discuss the gods

a peace deal. what i'm, i'm trying to do the mental gymnastics right now with i don't know how this works, but i mean, i would say, i would say this is more like an arranged marriage like somebody's really trying to force this couple to get married. but like the bride's not invited, the galleries being discussed and her family has no say over, you know, any of it. but i mean that, that, that is such 20th century thinking of like, you know, this is western exceptionalism of aust versus the soviet union with soviet union, the exist anymore. you got to bring other people as you know, the 21st century is multi polar. and the west is acting like, okay, we're going to resolve this with just our side. we're gonna, we're gonna tell everybody how this is done right now. patriarchy, all right, we're, we're going to discuss your future will tell you what we've decided about you when we're done with his business over here. i mean, right. uh, good stuff, manila,

thank you so much. uh, when we come back, our next guest says quote, the wholesale killing of palestinians and gaza will mark the turning point in western politics. a dark tongue he writes, for modern western civilization. what does he mean by that? we're going to ask him. he is a political analyst who hosts a very popular podcast. it's called sunday wire, with patrick kennings, then we'll be right back the same rom just don't have to shape house because the engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves boils, the parts we choose to look so common ground the

the hey, welcome back. i'm re sanchez and i want to show you something. now let's put together by my next guest. this is a, this is a clip that was on his twitter feed. i hope he doesn't mind just showing it which you're showing it to you. here it is, it's just completely out of control. it's on a industrial scale. and despite everything that everyone see, the united states has back israel's military campaign against the post a new people. so joining me now is park after patrick kennings and he's also a political analyst. he's a smart guy, he's good enough to take some time to talk to us now. but it's interesting you say, and i mentioned this before. we went to break. the thing that is real is doing and gaza will cause a. and the words you use is a dark turn. what do you mean by dark? turn, patrick? what?

i think it's a dark turn for the arc of, of post world war 2. the post world war 2, world order. western civilization. in the modern sense, you know, everything that we built, all the multilateral institutions that we built after world war 2 that were designed to prevent the very thing that we are being forced to witness every day. on our smartphones, on our televisions in on, on internet sites all over the web, which is a genocide, we'd have conventions international chords, united nations of security council. so if, if these things of all failed to prevent this sort of agree, just a war crime, egregious of crimes against humanity, then you could say that the entire post world war to order for the worst possible scenario that was designed to prevent is a failure. and that means western civilization itself needs to have a real reckoning right now. and ask itself is a we a, we and we do

a regression phase. now, although we still going forward, what will matter? because it seems we are living, you're absolutely right. in a world right now we're up is down and everything is upside down and nothing makes any sense. and we built institutions to tell people that we have a built a consortium of countries and we're all going to come together and make recommendations to other countries. but if those countries are big enough and they have enough money, they just basically shoot them a burden. say that how, what do we don't care what you think we're not going to do it? and yet we have other countries that are punished for doing almost absolutely nothing. i just stated the case of cuba. i mean q or a 16 to 70 years, they've been punished decimated their economy has been what i mean is the country by 1000000 people. but yet they're bad is really good. that doesn't make any sense . so we just don't want all the way. just let the powerful will and the windshield

i yeah, i mean, the bookcase we could talk about that the ship, but that's emblematic of this permanent sanctions. the kind of regime of permanent sanctions you looked at cuba, you look at the ron, you look at the syria series, a good example of a country. it's been totally strangled by the us and the you and a sort of double sided vice grip of strangling it. and the same time stealing it's oil, which the us occupying in northeastern serious. so that's just a real extreme example. but i think the point that we, we really want to make here is we, we, we are now kind of unraveling all of the things that helped to a, stabilize the international system. i. e, diplomacy, i. e, serious calls for the cease fires. if you think about it, rick, a previous presidential administrations, even both the bush administration's would have hit the brakes probably 3 weeks in 2 israel's bombardment of gaza back in october november because the,

the images would just be terrific. the political price to pay would just be too high. and also, america being and accomplish to this slaughter with just alienated to its allies and potential allies. people that wants to win to it side, but now in 2024. none of that happen. no diplomacy, no peace negotiations, active cause to escalate active calls to escalate in both ukraine and, and in the israel. let's talk about that. let's talk about that. and i'm wondering, and i please don't take this the wrong way and i'm not talking about the fact that they are jewish, but i am talking about the fact that they are scientists. and when i have started to look at our state department under joe biden, i see zion is after zion is after zion is sometimes talk as if their interest in is real, is above their interest in my country, our country know yeah,

true. and not all, not all designed this are jewish, carl jews, i'm saying it exists important point to make. but the point is that i pack as a major lobby united states had lifted what was kind of a moratorium before about directly contributing to political candidates and congress and senate dot was removed. and so you'll see a flow of money coming in. the absolutely influence says where congressmen senators are on policy and this happens in october of last year. and then you see this complete wip line on the democratic side. a few dissenters, perhaps on the republican side in terms of funding in the war. but pretty much a consensus on both parties, so that capture hadn't fully been complete until the last couple of years. and i think this is why you see this extreme situation where you have the media and the political class going one way on an issue. and you clearly have the people, the popular populace, even the young base of the democratic party going into

a totally different direction on this. and that really speaks volumes as to where we're at right now. yeah, and i think the point that you make is fascinating because i like your i, i like your nomenclature when you say entering a dark side. and i think that dark side is not visible to most americans right now, because they're busy working their butts off and you know, dealing with inflation and watching cnn and fox news and thinking that's the truth . but underneath fox news and underneath the new york times and underneath the cnn, etc. so there are people like you and me who are having these discussions and it's not about you and me, there's so many other people out there who are having these discussions. and i think we're still maybe years away. i don't know what your, what your thinking is on this. when does this, these facts, this truth, this reality break through from the b s that we are most americans, unfortunately,

are stuck with right now. and it's not their fault, they don't know any better. i think i and they, they yeah, i'm not gonna blame the people as much as i will blame the media. i almost don't want to blame government because as you know, rick government's going to do what governments do. politicians do it. they do, which is pivot change, flip lie, but the media, the used to be a 4th. the state used to have standards, but the truth should matter and it's the problem is it doesn't matter. now if you look at the whole october 7th and the gaza of drago is just totally out of control . it's because if you look at history, rarely has ever been a war or a genocide for that matter that wasn't based on lies and deception. you can't rope in the public to back something is that with dishes? is this without a complete bevy of lies and propaganda? and i think we saw that on october 7th, and unfortunately a lot of these things have been debunked in recent months. but you look at the,

the words coming out of jo, biden's mouth or tony blinking. they just keep repeating these troops that are simply not true. statements of that are not, never happened videos this claim they saw, which never have been been seen by anybody. so we're being ruled by a whole series of lives, and that's what's really behind. these emotive themes of these high profile events, atrocity propaganda is really pushing a kind of alternative reality. and unfortunately, that's the track that these people are on. and we're not on the same track. you, the people who get their news from alternative sources. look at the polling of recent is very, very clear. if you watch k, that news is it's like 70 percent or something in favor of as well. if you don't, it's the opposite. so you can see right there we all knew this was true, right? but now you can see it's proven scientifically, right? that's a really great point, patrick i, i think there's a, there's, there's almost a justification for the things that we thought or true right now,

based on the polling that we've seen, people who get their news from social media, people get their news from tick tock, people who get their news from alternative sources have a completely different view of the world. then the people who get their news from the cnn's and the fox news and all that other crap which is basically paid for by raytheon and several other big companies speak to speaking of ukraine. and you mentioned that a little while ago. i mean, not the big sides here, but i just, i was curious the other night and i did a little googling and i found out the number of, of, of children killed in the ukraine. war so far is minuscule. the number of civilians killed according to international sources, is like 10000 which is horrible. no civilian should ever be killed. but the number of civilians killed in a war that's lasted almost 2 and a half years now. and ukraine is 10000. meanwhile, the war and gaza, or the attacks on gaza have already killed like 30 to 40000 people. i mean,

what does that tell you as well? what it tells you is, if you look at the, you learn figures on this and you look at other one monitoring and zeros and so forth. that this is the word in ukraine, okay? it is. capital has the lowest amount of civilian casualties of anything in the modern era. if you compare the amount of conventional arms that have been expended so far in 2 years. what does that tell you? who is the most powerful actor there? it's clearly the russian federation are taking, meticulous care to avoid civilian casualties. otherwise you would not see these numbers. so this, this basically the lies, the myth that's has been pushed by the west that put in is committing genocide in ukraine. it's just the opposite. and so what you really see there is something very akin to a civil war, something very akin to a major military intervention. and we can't argue about the history and the borders

and the dumbbells, and whose russian nude ukrainian. but the bottom line is it is not the scorch, darth type, the military operation of the united states itself or israel will conduct and not ask any questions and demand no accountability by the end of it. look at a rock look at libya. look at all of these other terrible situations and now look at the situation in, in gaza, span. so in fact, speaking, speaking of numbers i, i checked those 2 and i think they're rocking somewhere. civilian deaths were somewhere between 500002900000. and we're going to compare that to $10000.00 that ukraine. it doesn't seem like a fair fight. patrick, you've been an absolute delight to talk to your smart guy. uh, good luck with your uh, podcast and you know, keep up the good fight, man. we'll look forward to seeing you again. we'll have you back. okay, thank you. thank you very much, joseph. all right, that's our news. remember to always look outside your own box. when you're looking for truth, because truths generally don't live in boxes. roxanne,

see next to the, [000:00:00;00] the when the world's largest democracy votes the rest of the planet watches in an emerging multi polar world. india's voice matters. but who will be the power behind watches, almost 1000000000 people decide and billions more, react the crime a for almost 3 centuries. it's been

a stronghold of russian culture. 10 years ago of the events, the divided dependence was history and to before and after. it became part of russia for good, the progress of the voice a do sort of it. so we took to me love to see the fitness, the superficial, if avoid the different just here it was more or less to about that bill jeffers to do some with you the, with the station. and then if you choose to cause but order still think within those that, that the mr. village is the listen over. the quote was pretty cross the person and it says get says was age and disagree. the floor that i was doing that only just the internet to the what the spit i do, and i suppose by us and probably the coolest side of things,

but little simple stories to chipped over to vehicle because senior living here versus the russian forces continue to involve from the possible fields in you frame spots of nato farm. and just as a said to meet in front of me, growing calls to allow kids to swipe deep into russian territory or should not continue indefinitely. just it should not be absent forever and commitment to the 2 state solution should not be wave. it will say take is looking to cooperate with arab nations to resolve hold spoke issue is achieving long term pace and stability of the message from the chinese latest. adrian think of the
