to do it with drawing me now to drill down on this makes big stories that are ignored under reported and missed report. and let's face it by corporate media. garley nixon and dr. wilmore leon, guys, thanks so much. by the way. they have their own sputnik radio show called the critical hour. and this is certainly a critical our guys, thanks for being there. let's talk about 1st of all. joining us on she is free. the founder of we can leaks is now back home in his home country of australia, a deal with us, the us here and the justice department here requires that he pleads guilty to a single charge of conspiracy. and in return, he'll receive credit for time served. avoiding any further jail time, i'm going to ask you guys the obvious question, the just the thinking, see today the julie massage walks free, but before i ask you that question to me, it seems ridiculous that in order for julian songs to walk free, he has to admit to a crime, he didn't actually commit any claims. he did not commit, but this is the way the justice system in the united states works right in order for us to finally stop persecuting you. you have to admit you did something wrong.

yes, this wasn't the, this wasn't the justice system. this was the political system and the justice system was used for political ends. it's not only that he did not commit the crime . the evidence show that he did not commit the crime of conspiracy. he did, he did not conspire with anybody to take anything. he did. what media outlets do, he published the information that he was provided. but in order for the, by the administration to save face in this mess, that they exacerbated following the here on the heels of trump. then this is the, the abuse of the system that they had to use in order to walk away with. they now can consider and spin to be a when yeah, well in garland if it was always a stretch, right is what we're saying was always a stretch to say, well, he didn't actually hack any materials. you can actually take the materials. but but

chelsea manning at the time, bradley many, we'd never been able to figure out how to download the stuff, had joined us on personally not walked him through it at the time. but, but there is no evidence of this whatsoever. and that this has been part of the problem in this case against the phones, is that not that he actually has classified materials, stone classified materials, but that he knew how to do it somehow and remotely talked bradley many through this process. and it was absolutely, and not only did they not have the evidence that he did that, the witnesses that they used cars with the, with the main, the witness, a guy named durgy or something, whatever it was of the guy was, you know, a prophetic witness. he admitted that he lied, he was a convicted pet of, i mean, it was an absolute disaster, but i think a big part of it was they didn't want him to come to court because a, they spied on the a defense team, which means, i mean, it would be difficult to get that past the supreme court. you could not make an

argument that he would have that he got a fair trial. i don't think they wanted to get him there because they didn't want to get in front of the supreme court lose number one and number 2 clearly because of the election. so they got, they got a conviction of some type and they moved on because i think they knew they have enough trouble. right now, politically and joe biden was looking for this was about the election in my opinion about the 2024 election. yeah. trying to get the left flight, such as it is of the democratic party to kind of get off of his back a little bit. yeah, i agree with you. i think it's very politically motivated. butler, again, this is what's happened with assault and what's happened with trump and a lot of his trials. what happens with the most whistle blowers in their trials, right. is that you get these, these crimes that are process crimes, right? so they never found him guilty or even got him to plead guilty to come in in the crime. it's a conspiracy charge, which means it's a fuck crime. but let me say this a court had ruled that his actions had not endangered anyone. right. and so again, it's a fault crime. no one was in danger. because of this, however,

the state department spokesperson matthew miller, he seemed to miss that memo. he insisted to reporters this week that a song didn't do wrong without really explaining what the wrong was. listen to this, but are you satisfied that the case is over? so look at the just department spoken, then i don't have anything to add. obviously the, obviously the uh, the master put down the statement that said, um, uh, we were happy to work with our sterling colleagues on it. and that remains the case . i do think it is important when we talked about julianna's honest, remind the worlds that the actions for which he was indicted and for which he has now plead guilty or actions to put the lives of our partners, our allies, and our diplomats at risk, especially those who work in dangerous places like afghanistan and iraq. i actually did talk to the state farm bank. and i, i don't remember there being any public. or there was a public concern that was raised about the potential security risk. those 2 sources who might have been quoted was there actually any for did you ever discover anyone

who was injured? killed had to go into hiding. so because of them, so a few things about that one. i can't give you a definitive answer only because i wasn't here at the time. you know, if you drive drunk down the street and get pulled over for drunk driving, the fact that you didn't crash into another car and kill some one doesn't get you out of the uh of your direct was actions and the endangerment that you put your fellow citizens and it's the same thing. same principle applies here, right. well i, i, i don't think that it does, but the fact the matter is that the state department has been leased, as far as i know and maybe i'm wrong. but there's been, as never been able to point to anyone who was compromised or killed or, i mean the guys, there's so much wrong with everything that was just said there in that news conference. let's start with the fact that 1st of all, what kind of analogy is the, if you're driving down the street drunk and you don't crash anyone, and that has nothing to do with what we're talking about. secondly,

the fact that you make it very definitive statement as the state department spokesman saying that we're lives at risk. they were partners and people whose lives were endangered. and then you say, give me an example. and he says, well, i can give you an example because i wasn't here. so then the, what do you even talking about please react, go ahead for. he doesn't pay, he doesn't know what he's talking about. yeah. and what this really demonstrates is the power and how far they will go to control the narrative. this is about the story. this is about the narrative. this is not about reality. and this is the same story that's being told by the new york times. it's the same story as being told by the washington post joy of the saw just free. and julian massage uh, pled guilty, and julia massage, put the lives of people at risk. he didn't put lives at risk. what he did was embarrass american diplomats. he, he tarnished the images of hillary clinton and then her built a and m and,

and their sensibilities. this has nothing to do with putting anybody in danger or impair. all that did not happen. well, i, garland, he, he embarrassed the bush administration. he embarrass permanent, washington. he embarrassed the obama administration as well. more rightly says he embarrassing the. the clinton's, the truth is though, is that i think you make the argument. julian, i saw you didn't in danger. people slide see, save people's lives by exposing a war in iraq and afghanistan were civilians were dying of an incredibly high rate . it wasn't until a function which he makes were brave enough to reveal this information that the public said wait a minute. all these people who are being killed over there aren't enemy combatants . they aren't so called insurgents, whatever that means. and they started to realize there are civilians in massive numbers who are being killed in these wars. i would argue that a fund save people's lives by revealing this stuff,

not putting people in danger. what say you as well. and what we saw with the state department spokesman was the groups think of the narrative, they all get together and they say certain things and not say he was quite flat footed when he made this statement that he put people's lives at risk with in his group no one would say, well, give me an example. there is no, it pissed them illogical context within that group. it's simply, let's make a statement. he put people's lives at risk. he's not. obviously, he was not accustomed to someone saying give me example of that. it was just that, what within our group, this is what we all say. this is the story. and no one's going to challenge that story or poke of that story and his group and they, and you see the state department spokesman get caught every single time someone is given the opportunity to ask a question that digs below a superficial narrative that they have. they always get caught flat footed. well, that's so well said because again, you're absolutely right because the reality is he's not used to anyone's saying who

with what he's talking about. and so instead he says, well, i don't know, i wasn't here. well, the why are you even talking? why are you up on this behind this podium right now? talking is as if you have some kind of knowledge your expertise in this area. and i think this is again, this is a problem in permanent washington, is that there is this prevailing narrative that surrounds everything. and it's in this ridiculous kind of groups speak in which they do say things like working leaks, endangered the lives of our partners. he lives in danger anyone's lives. how about how about the military pilots who are shooting journalists and in the interact and killing reuters journalists. and that's where they'll bi weekly leaks where's. where's the condemnation of that in the lives of journalist that was put on the line? and the danger comes to the 1st amendment, the in terms of the attack on the freedom of speech. the danger comes as americans are not being told the truth by their government about how their tax dollars are being spent. how atrocities are being committed in the,

in the names of american people. and unfortunately, there are too many people in that press corps that are so desperate for excess that they won't do with that state department reported that they will question the narrative. they will not put those individual standing at the podium or at the dies on point. and ask them, you just said something. now, can you provide data to support it? they won't do that because they want to be sure that they get to ask questions. they don't want to get the reputation of going against the graeme and not following the narrative. well, i hear you guys are both right about that. you're both very brave journalist in your own right. but the reality is, is that when you have this is merging of, you know, permanent washington, the bureaucratic state, the state and these agencies that run everything with the media, which we've seen now for at least 20 years. we're no one questions, anything anymore that's. that's precisely the problem. but guys, let me hold you over because don't go anywhere. when we come back, we're going to delve into the controversy surrounding us missiles. immeasurably

used to kill civilians in ukraine. plus, we're going to unpack the dramatic failed to attempt that rock south america this week, our panel returns after the break to discuss these pivotal events. say to the what is part of the the is a good book. it was posted. isn't the defense you of us and that in the word part, is it something deeper, more complex might be present? let's stop without kenesha. is that spelled out of

the the magenta itself, the gaining independence and from the form of the ivory coast remained under the strong influence of his former metropolitan pro french president. felix, who said one year, ruled the country for 33 years, ensuring the interest to from the dead,

the gun on painting isn't it in the trunk. then there's no simple new foster. larry shifted that goods was done. those who saw him a lot more appropriate after the death of, of a one year, a new lead to bill. i'll go back the ball came to power reset. and i'm ready to double open, for example, that curious to know if we'll see the process or the was, it isn't good enough for us to, to me to when it prompts immediately deemed good luck. boeing, enemy, a deep political crisis ensued. walk a, the country 2nd largest city, turned into a theater of law. i think we need to do on repeatability. so how did the dramatic events unfold and how is walk a recovering from? he is a bloody conflict. watch on see the

and welcome back to direct impact on bins one in for rick sanchez. and this is the week and review switching gears now to southern russia where ukraine launch strikes on sunday targeting the city of set the store for at least 4 people were killed, including 2 children over a 150 people were left injured in many of them as you'll see in this video, we're simply enjoying the end of their weekend, of the, of the car from the body. i was relaxing at a result when i had an explosion that a 2nd explosion understood something, flew into the building from the sky. i went out on to the balcony to see what was going on. everything was covered in smoke. people was screaming, i saw something full into the building. it was about the size of a bed. people were shouting your fire, your fire from all the neighboring buildings from the residential complex people

around with everything they could to put out the flames go. it is an incredible story. but maybe the most interesting part of the story though, is that russian defense officials say the strikes were carried out using american attack him as missiles which can only be operated. we're told by us experts, reportedly all flight coordinates need to be input by american specialist. using american intelligence, so let's bring back my crew of guests now doctor wilmore leon. and garland nixon hosts of the critical, our on radio spot next. all right, let's start with you girl in here. um, i mean, obviously this is a major story if, if what is being reported is true, that these were american missiles fired by americans. that's already a big part of the story, but maybe even bigger is remember this, this strike to placing crimea. we've been told for years now that crimea was illegally annexed, and it actually belongs to ukraine and it's full of ukrainians. and yet these missiles were fired, undoubtedly by ukraine, which means that ukraine was firing on their own people. and

a couple of things here. number one, and that is that we all know that these are, these were americans the technically as r f k, junior stated recently. that's an act of war to fire. but for the us that this was not new brain that ukraine does not have the technical capability. to fire these missiles, this was the united states government firing weapons at civilians in russia. it's an active or which is in fact a constitutional violation. because the president of the united states does not have the authority to commit an act of war without running it through congress. number one, number 2, i'll say this, the idea that your brain wants to react millions of crime ends and millions of easter, a people in don best who speak russian and their, their, their, their, their, their language is outlawed and their religion is outlaw number one and number 2, if they came back in his so called democracy, they'd be allowed to vote, which means that they'd vote as a block and put in a but

a pro russian government in, in ukraine. so even the idea that they want to re exit that they want to bring these people back into the ukranian. um, you know, a nation is in and of itself preposterous. it absolutely is a little more i think, to, to garlands point about this being an active war. the reality is, it's not just unconstitutional for any of you as president to, to engage in war without a declaration of warrant congress. but that hasn't happened since world war 2, so that's not going to happen. what i think is even more striking here though, is that they're not even admitting that they're doing it. so it's not just that it's illegal, it's that it's illegal and it's being done in secrecy as well. this goes back to the point that i made in the previous segment. and that is the united states and citizens of the united states. not being told the truth about the actions that are be being taken by the american government with american taxpayer dollars and, and they aren't being told what, what is being done in their names as to the issue of ukrainian,

inspiring on ukrainians to the earlier point. the garland made, these are considered to be ethnic russians. they, they speak russian the, they follow the rough russian orthodox church. in fact, this was done on a sunday on a holiday when the beach was crowded full of crimean slash ethnic russian in individuals. and this was not some benign event by the united states to your point attack homes are only used by american soldiers. this was as robert f kennedy junior. so aptly said, this is in fact a war, correct? absolutely. all right, let's, let's move on here. so we got a lot to cover when i show you guys video that we've collected here, arm demand rate, bolivian government policies in an attempt at seizing power and it fails. check this out. the

are. all right, so this is where things get interesting. juan jose is any guy, the alleged leader of this group is now under arrest and claiming this was all a plot to boost the popularity of the president louise are say, the do you guys believe that or could there be other reasons behind all of this darling go 1st. well,

what as soon as i found out that the believe the government had signed a deal with russia to my lithium, i knew it's just a matter of time before the resume changed crazy. so over at fault the bottom made their move. but this just to me shows that let's just say they've lost their basketball. if you look at the information debacle, called the bay of pigs with where they sent a bunch of guys in wandering through the jungles who literally lost a gun fight to fishermen. right. and you realize that they just don't have it anymore. and now what did they do? but if you look into this, they like occupied the square in front of the presidential palace. that's how far they've got. so, i mean it's the area was the original name of the change attempt. yes. in, in, in, in, in practical application. if this is the best they got, i don't think they could overthrow you know a uh, a fast food restaurant at this point and i'm glad of that problem. it seems like that is the problem. it does seem to be getting worse. i would say if you track, especially a lot in south america, the, the competency of cruise going to be in his way line. and this whole thing that was

tried with one of why no, it just, none of it makes any sense. what we're no, it doesn't and cruise i think, have been going on in, in bolivia 419461945, something along those lines. we know that the ball morales is waiting in the wings waiting to run for re election. and if this, if this was a cool attempt, please, no one try to present a call on my behalf with clean floors like this, who needs enemies? absolutely. all right, let's look at the coup waters. let's i gotta finish up here with the us secretary of state anthony, blinking announcing a new state department partnership. you can make the stuff up with youtube music according to a press release. it is all part of an effort to further the united states elevated commitment to use music to promote peace and democracy, promoting peace and democracy through music anthony blinking. i mean,

this is again, it's called the called the see, the stuff will work. come on, anthony blink, and i, when we know that he's like an amateur guitar as has something like awful guy rock band from the sixty's. but this guy working with youtube, i guess it was the thing that makes it not funny to me, is the fact that youtube is such a sensor around the world in terms of what they're able to do when you ever use a partnership with the state department. it's not a good thing. you know, it's not in been, i don't know why you're trying to insult amateur guitar is by calling a bug. think yeah. blinking an amateur guitar. it's. he's an amateur. yes. no question. but amish, you're good. but the, the already here is that the by the administration is on the march against social media big. but if they really want to promote peace, they would allow a free or dissemination of information within the sphere of social media platforms

. but no, that's not what they want to do. they want to clamp down on media platform. so it is very ironic that they are turning to youtube music to promote peace. and i wonder what artists are going to use to do so. well, not only what artist they use, but all the money tax payer dollars, then you're going to get pumped into youtube music. now, in order to help get, again, push it up. but you know, we do something for you and you've got to do something for us. so i don't think since the 19 sixties and seventies have we actually had music that was a part of a resistance to anything that government has done. that's been pretty much wiped out, but this almost guarantees that that doesn't come back, does it not girl. yeah, yeah, and this is hilarious because, you know, as a person who does the youtube show, i can tell you the one thing that you're going to get censored for on youtube is trying to promote peace of democracy. so the idea of the page somehow thought of 180 course and a lot of the lead up there back with the 360 is kind of hard to believe. but the other thing about it is, so now tony blake and wants us to believe that he's trying to from the piece in democracy, how that going? totally blanking. i mean,

let's look at his record tablets. tony blinker efforts to promote a piece of democracy in the world since he's come to office working. i have a funny feeling that if you evaluate the results of his work, you'll uh, you won't, we'll come to a conclusion that either he's not good at it, or he's like, well, or, or got a general eventually be peace and ukraine. walter, i went to the police and because it won't there. but when you get to read the, find the words piece and democracy when you create your are own meaningful those words. and i, i suppose it can be that we're living in the time we're up is down and down is up freedom in slavery. and slavery is freedom, democracy and peace are actually tyrannical. regimes like what zalinski is running in ukraine right now, but blink is all about that stuff, guys. great, having you on with us today. thanks so much for your insight. see you back there next week. and that is our show for you on been swan will see you next time with more stories that make a direct impact the

the number you need use visa deployed here near to nancy kim's in a book that probably the national shifts need very the of the only showcase is use the sounds good to the boys at the boys, the

probably the most new and that'll be for them. and my trip to florida doesn't want that extra them. but adults under that walk and stuff here. we discussed some real in the . 6 the the

on the the

most of the mileage and almost a shift level to see if you can show you some of them the take over the summer. and so i'm going to go over some new for me to the which tell me just a little gods. but i see some of the, some of the items to somebody to bring you must do. the good was always stuff. i did the meals that the gold on the, you know, you had the blue problem. so kind of show right here. so let me show you. so you don't have to in the 100, you're dealing with frontier level. and that's when of the plus the silver. so the move up to somebody

how can it be that um the ship to the middle east from a country whose top officials constantly complain about shortages of munitions and military equipments destroyed no pain believe, but in passing low green and the new system and located along the nominal facility or some of those other staff we, i'm about to look at the easiest meals, so let us know and we'll have an easy some better mobile bubble sort of wellness that will kind of the piece that have gone on now. well, why are weapons from ukraine spreading over the world? to turn this country into a major arms hub, will continue to bolster ukraine's and forces by rushing them a capabilities that they need to defend their country. the everyone knows very well that we don't sell but known as pineapples or any kind of children's toys. we sell weapons. yes, we're also known in the world as items dealers that we must not be ashamed of that

the of the great and security service claims its filed a plan by civil active as to storm the country's parliament and out to the current leadership summit. questions over blood emergencies legitimacy, as his term expired in may, the paris burns, as the national riley party takes the lead and the french legislative elections with president. my problems defeats on the cards. the nations time minister issues a stark warning the subject you see clear, our objective is clear to prevent the national riley from obtaining an absolute majority in the 2nd round from dominating parliament. and therefore.
