since the colonel was photo is used to retreat. the house of representatives has approved a bill to increase the u.s. debt limits paving the way for the senate to vote on the plan to have a default but analysts say even if the bill passes through congress months of political bickering severely damaged america's reputation worldwide. the u.s. in the years stepped up their push for more sanctions against syria for the latest crackdown on protesters reportedly leaves more than one hundred people dead with moscow condemning violence from but something. under gyptian troops clashed with protesters in cairo as security forces moving to break up a rally by protesters demanding faster political change demonstrators have been counting out into the square for weeks calling for swift and reforms after the federal reserve revolution. and coming up now the owner rich just considers the

american debt default deal and why some feel sold out and whether it will just mean more trouble on the way. for the fall we've got. the biggest issues get a human voice face to face with the news makers. welcome to the loner show where i get the real headlines with none of the mersey i can live in washington d.c. and i'm back but i just want to say thank you to lauren lyster for filling in for me last week she did a fabulous job now tonight we're going to speak to the young turks about how progressive should feel about this new debt deal let's just say if the words just crumpled sold out furious all of those come to mind when you speak to lieutenant colonel anthony shaffer about the possibility for massive defense cuts in this debt

deal and how the neo cons are all readily already having a collective heart attack before anything concrete is even happening and while congress and the white house may want you to think they just saved america from default what about the american economy altogether what about the unemployed there are now more than two million ninety nine er's so we're going to speak to one of them were you have all that and more freedom night but first let's take a look at what the mainstream media has decided to miss. so as of the last night the president announced that party leaders had agreed to a new debt deal and as of now we're still waiting for a final vote that's going to take place tomorrow but it does look like we probably just escaped that disastrous default that has become the ultimate headache and heartache for journalists americans investors you know basically everybody in the world so for once for once i must congratulate the mainstream media for just a moment because yes this is a huge story and yes they're actually covering it but that doesn't mean that

they're doing it well so for starters let me give you the details of this plan obviously has yet to be voted on but if enacted a guarantee is a two point four trillion dollar hike to our already fourteen trillion dollars debt limit and the process would work in two steps four hundred billion and borrowing off already it could be granted to the treasury immediately after that. president obama will be allowed to extend the debt limit by five hundred billion which congress can do a vote of disapproval on which obama can then the dough so essentially that nine hundred billion is guaranteed now that nine hundred billion raised it's going to be paired with nine hundred billion dollars in discretionary spending cuts and that's going to spread out over ten years so in comes around two obama's then going to be able to raise the debt limit by one point five trillion dollars more and that's paired with a brand new bipartisan super congressional committee being formed and they'll have to agree to a minimum of one point two trillion dollars in cuts but if they fail to reach that agreement of one point two trillion then it's going to trigger an across the board

cuts of one point two trillion half from domestic spending and half coming from defense now those are the details of this a not very well thought out last minute deal and this deal could have a devastating impact for average americans poor americans especially for those who need many of the social programs the most but guess what those are the programs that are going to be cut tax revenues are nowhere nowhere to be found in the supposed compromise but who cares about the larger implications right this is what the mainstream media decided to focus on and spent tireless hours discussing we are following every development going on in this nail biter washington just hours before the deadline to raise that debt limit it's a close he's a very talented vote counter vice president biden is coming to the hill today you truly try and sell the deal. john boehner you had some trouble asked week to do it that's the magic question in terms of the debt deal thus far who won. want to take it really to losers here in terms of the democrats and the republicans. that's

right more of that inside the beltway crap that nobody outside the beltway in the new york d.c. media bubble cares about donald trump says no my god i mean seriously most people are probably asking why does anyone care that this one man who's not of the like that official is more of you could describe as a media whore. what do you see they have to say about that he has bad hair why do they care and then of course one politician said something crazy so the mainstream media in turn went crazy over it you have been quoted coming out of your caucus as calling this agreement a sugar coated satan sandwich was that indeed your quote is that how you feel about this deal if i were a republican i would be doing in the streets i don't have any idea what the republicans wanted that they didn't get on the surface it looks like the same sandwich. seriously satan sandwich who cares i'll tell you what they could be talking about instead of sandwiches or what donald trump had to say how about the

way that this deal is actually going to change america the way it will help get our economy out of the gutter the way that will probably keep unemployment high won't ask anymore of the rich it will only hurt those who are still suffering so this is the beginning of the end of the new deal of so many those accomplishments of the twentieth century that most people feel made america great because that's what people are going to remember you know how about the space program the first man to walk on the moon the first lunar car that nasa made to drive on the moon that by the way happened forty years ago that's what other countries aspired to be but don't talk about that anymore so it's all about the he said she said on capitol hill and americans are feeling it a new poll from the hill out today finds that one third of likely voters now think that america's best days are over and they're probably right and those half of likely voters from those polled think the best days are still ahead well they probably just don't know any better you know why because the mainstream media doesn't bother telling them about the record questions as this is going to have about the way of the social fabric of this country is changed by the death of the

middle class about the fact that we now live in a plutocracy in our government doesn't work for us but first special interests and those who live their pockets that's what this entire debt fiasco is highlighted for is a once again that's it it's brought to the forefront and yet that's what the mainstream media who lives in this tiny little bubble who has no connection to the real world anymore who talks about sandwiches. is and donald trump and tweets instead of housing and jobs and equality the death of democracy well that's what they choose to miss. so the new debt ceiling colludes a lot of cuts and for now absolutely no tax revenues that's not exactly we would call a compromise or a shared sacrifice or whatever other horrible rhetoric the mainstream media has decided to sell to you to pretend like this was even and even or a fair fight that most people would say and most people would probably be correct in saying if the democrats lost this one but did the democrats really want to wait

to see the other thing go here is that the president kate on this one we have to start asking did he really cave so are these concessions exactly what the white house wanted all along knowing that it would change the social fabric knowing that it wouldn't get the economy out of the gutter it hoping all along that they could blame it on someone else the tea party or the republicans and get americans to look the other way earlier i caught up with the young turks and i first asked him if he thinks that the real losers here are the american people. of course i would now it's a disaster in every way imaginable you know they say that it democrats didn't want to do this they have a funny way of constantly doing things they claim they don't want to do and giving the republicans one hundred percent over and over again you know as bush used to say who me once shame on you who we would again so this is a look at this i've been pulled we can't give paul the good how many times you need

you there are always argue percent of what they want and still call yourself a democrat and look the problem is for the american people because tremendous cuts and who pays a price the middle class pays a price and obviously those who are poor in this country pay huge price with these cuts but the rich get away scot free. again no revenue increases whatsoever they get to keep all their loopholes all their exemptions their corporate jet subsidies their oil subsidies they don't pay a dime the rest of us do. yeah must be nice well you know since i see you already brought about how can you do it so many times and still call yourself a democrat and let's were going to expand to all politicians but first let's focus on just the president here to a lot of the arguments we're hearing is that while the poor president he just had his hands tied and you know he couldn't you couldn't do anything here but it was exactly the plan that obama always wanted hasn't he been the one that's been pushing for huge cuts for austerity for cutting entitlements programs as well.

well two things on that front two huge supporters of the president have flipped today and it gives you an indication emanuel cleaver is the head of the congressional black caucus and up until last week he was saying it's not fair to criticize the president and liberals are asking for too much they've got to tone down their expectations today he called this deal a satan sandwich now i don't know what that is but it sounds really bad he seeks displease john conyers was the first person in congress to endorse senator obama then for president and he is saying thousands should go to the white house to protest over this terrible deal for the american people so you get a sense of the really diehard supporters of the president saying come on now enough is enough this is beyond outrageous second of all you have to understand where president obama's real intent is look he put social security on the table when the republicans weren't even asking for now luckily as disastrous as this deal is it

does not get involved social security but wait till the super congress kicks in around thanksgiving and today president obama measured it again he said well we're looking forward to you know the next stage is where we do quote unquote entitlement reform which means where we cut your social security and medicare and he's obsessed with it almost more so than a republican president. he is obsessed with a but why does he get to keep getting away with it right because i think you could speculate that well perhaps he's doing this so he can seem centrist and moderate so he can get some of the independents onto his belt when it comes to reelection but why would democrats why are progressive the specially who essentially have been had their faces the spin by this president why did they go back and vote for him again. well for me the straw that broke the camel's back was a long long time ago and that was you know if i'm going to be generous i'll say that it was when he agreed to the bush tax cuts again in december for seemingly no apparent reason i mean it was an unbelievable collapse it's taken the others longer

to get there but believe me now a lot of them are there crewing today wrote an article in the new york times talking about how this is a disaster of epic proportions obama gave in on every single thing. that aforementioned congressman congressman cleaver you know before he was saying you know not only don't criticize the president he had this amazing quote about how look the president of course can't afford to help african-americans because then you know conservatives will criticize him for being black and playing favorites but then i thought there was a quote about being a black president is not going to help black people but as you can see he lost cleaver today i mean he's just lost one progressive after another and i think after this epic collapse people are going to finally look around and go why why are we voting for this guy or why do we keep supporting this guy when he's cutting it as much if not more than a republican president what well i have an idea how about the fact that the white house and this president especially always gets to point

a finger and say let's look at who the other option is. yeah of course that's the game they've been playing all along the other game that they do is they send out their minions you know whether it's on t.v. shows online shows or on blogs to say if you ever criticize the president well then you're helping the republicans know if i don't criticize the president i'm helping the republicans. because apparently the only thing the president responds to is pressure and all he gets is pressure from the right wing and you see what the president does when he gets right wing pressure he crumbles he's a house of cards again if you're being generous to him and you think his intent is actually progressive if you think his intent is actually to go along with them all long well then we've got a much worse problem but i'm tired of listening to and i certainly i stop listening to those guys a long time ago and everybody should stop listening to them people say oh if you criticize the president you're helping republicans that's nonsense if you don't criticize the president you're helping republicans get exactly what they want from this president ok so are you done with this president we let so far look at his

track record he not only has extended it many of the bush era policy as when it comes to our war on terror when it comes to the erosion of our civil liberties but now also when it comes to america's economy and especially the social fabric of this country the entitlement programs what a lot of people could say made this country great in the twentieth century now he's thrown out the window to you are you done. so look i even at this late juncture i hesitate in saying it but but here's what i mean by that so we're clear on this look again the republican alternative is worse i know mitt romney mitt romney is one hundred percent corporate he said this deal was not draconian enough so i am not idealistic about the republican is exactly opposite and i know that it goes from bad to worse but i think should the president be primaried absolutely for two very important reasons number one if we go into an election where only to show options are corporal bought mitt romney and the man who

gives corporal bots everything they want barack obama well those are terrible options and they say oh well there is a third option that's even scarier michele bachmann how about a fourth option now not in the general election but in a primary we say hey at least give us somebody to vote for who is actually a progressive i don't know if it's you know bernie sanders i don't know if it's russ feingold but at this. point i can it's hard to imagine a democrat being worse than president obama on all the issues that you mention so by all means we should do it and then point number two is look we've actually only be helping in the conventional wisdom is their primary sort of president but you've got to understand something he this guy is heading off a cliff and he's the unemployment disastrous and when we do the spending because it's only going to get worse if you primary him and push him to the left you'd only be helping him in trying to win the actual general election because if you don't primary him and they do the second round of these cuts and they cut in title months and he goes into the summer with over nine percent unemployment he's going to hit

poll numbers he's never seen before he's going to head into the thirty's and he's going to panic but by that time it's going to be too late all right so you mentioned russ feingold you mentioned bernie sanders there but do you think that they are real progressive's anymore i mean can you name anybody in this country that's an elected official anymore who doesn't serve corporate interests and those who essentially pay them over those who elect them. look that's why i always say this isn't personal i don't think that these politicians are bad people i'm sure they love their kids like they were you know they used to say about the soviet union sure the russians love their kid i was always positive that i was for that to be comically obvious but anyway it's not about that is that you've got the wrong system where politicians collect paychecks from special interests lobbyists and most importantly multinational corporations so obviously they work for the people who sign their paychecks so there are very very few people that are not affected by this virus bernie sanders and russ feingold are the two best examples i'm sure i

could find you a couple more but not much more than than even the good guys realize the quote unquote reality of the system and wind up having to raise a lot of money from those same interests and then eventually over time get corrupted i'll see if americans actually realize that next time that the elections come around now that essentially they have been sold out to corporate. is that there is no real revenues in this bill at all it's only cuts cuts cuts and of course most economists would agree that this is only going to make the employment situation worse and the economy worse overall but jane thanks so much for joining us tonight. thank you. are we're taking a quick break but coming up there's a glimmer of hope when it comes to advancements in women's health and the details on that in just a moment and we're going to take a look at the effects of this debt compromise on a personal scale when i speak to an advocate for the ninety nine er's the ones that are dealing with chronic unemployment as soon as we come back.

we'll. bring you the latest science and technology from around the world. we've got this huge earth covered. the news today violence is once again flared up. and these are the images the world has been seeing from the streets of canada. showing corporation to rule the day. the sky. the light will come down. so fast

you can fire is will be singing. today gentleman and most importantly ladies we have a glimmer of hope in the darkness that is the debt ceiling deal we do have a little bit of light the department of health and human services has an ounce of they will now have new guidelines beginning a year from now and they're going to require health insurance companies to cover women's health services and that might sound a little broad but the new regulations that brought about under president obama's affordable care act will include the following services without making women pay adoptable or a co-pay that includes breast exams breast feeding support just ational diabetes domestic violence screenings well women exams and all have to approve methods of birth control even the morning after pill all those now going to be included under these new regulations this is a huge milestone when it comes to improving women's access to health care overall we know. of women according to studies forgo or delay preventive care because they

can't afford it and under the affordable care act that all changes. so a lot of women's rights groups are now championing this latest announcement which has been a topic of discussion ever since institute of medicine report came out last month in favor of free contraception for all women of course you can imagine how much the right wingers in fox news just hated that idea many women are good for you blasted out of their minds when they have section are going to birth control anyway why should why should taxpayers have to fund. birth control look women should be responsible for their own well you're right there i know but if you can't afford a five dollars proper cino at starbucks but you can pay your five dollars co-pay you know. all three of those clips left me shocked i mean o'reilly just running his mouth looking for a little bit of attention. but i would love to add data where she five five dollars copay maybe that's just the perk of having one of those hefty fox news paychecks

but besides we're conservatives try to tell women what they can and can't do in their own bedrooms just a few months ago when it came to abortion i mean i agree women should be responsible for their own ovaries and these new guidelines are a great way to help women take care of themselves get the real medicare medical care that they need and that ladies and gentleman is a true glimmer of hope. now while congress was fighting over the debt ceiling over the last few months guess what they weren't doing focusing on jobs remember that's what republicans promised to make a priority during the midterm elections. instead what we've seen is a congressional body that's not only passive your austerity cuts that will not help the economy pick up steam again we've also seen them completely ignore those americans who need work and the numbers of those who've been out of work for a long time those ninety nine er's those numbers are only getting larger as of june there are now more than two million americans who have been out of work for ninety nine weeks or longer and that's the highest that that number has been since it's began being tracked by the b.l.s.

even worse congress didn't include any extension in this debt deal for unemployment benefits which means the ninety nine week program is going to expire at the end of this year and anybody who loses their job after july first of this here well they're only going to get twenty to twenty six weeks of unemployment total so seeing as how no stimulus or jobs or part of this supposed and bar get that means that more people are going to be hurt joining me to discuss this is rhonda taylor advocate for the ninety nine er's national front i want to thank you so much for joining us tonight and if you could start by telling us a little bit about your own situation how long you've been out of work. i've been out of work since april of two thousand and eight my unemployment benefits benefits ran out in march of two thousand and i have used my life savings and everything that i owned in order to maintain a roof over my hat continually looking for work and genuine being watching the government rhetoric that has gone on over the last few years and then you know we're getting frustrated with the lack of response in the government on things

gentian the people that are out here suffering now do you think it's on the side of me to tell you off go ahead. it's just very frustrating to watch that at home and. do you feel like and i guess unemployment benefits are a necessity for you because there are a lot of people out there who argue that that just makes you lazy that makes you a leech off the government you'd rather just collect paychecks from the government and from the taxpayers then maybe even you know stoop so low as to go try to get a job at mcdonald's. i've tried mcdonald's they're not hiring people didn't realize donald was going to save this country when the crisis that we are in so they need to wake up and look around them and realize that it's coming to their doorstep and starting to. help with job actors now because we've been out of the economy for so long the bottom line is the lifeline. i'm going to go home if i don't get a job benefits or just a temporary in in order to help us move the turns and they're ignoring the fact of

the matter is now they're just adding more ninety nine years to our ninety nine or numbers we don't want more people going home with us to being running center city as the shelters are full or the funding cuts out we want aleutian and they're not even there they're discussing everything else that is not the crisis in this country you're right they're not discussing them as we've watched them be in this back and forth struggle for months over the deficit which most americans if you look at polls don't think that's the biggest problem we have right now it is about jobs so do you feel forgotten by or lawmakers or what are the emotions that come to mind. anger anger frustration and the fact that we are millions out there that we are organized we may not march the streets where organized man fact that we will make fun or snack on all government no matter what side of the aisle you sit on or feeling to acknowledge that there is an unemployment crisis for making us

a victim and for norrin the victim you created solve the problem and get this is a crisis they should be taking august off they should they should been dealing with this. you're going to have two years ago i've been out of work for a hundred and seventy eight we do the math if there was jobs out there ninety nine weeks was enough i would have a job at one hundred not one hundred seventy eight weeks. and i have a college education and i feel to bring to the table and i expect you to do that but the government is ignoring the problem in creating more fear in this country and it's making it harder for people like me and my group to get out there and have that opportunity but i know you mentioned that you may not be out marching on the streets why not. can afford it and you don't have two dollars for greg when you can't afford to put gas in your car you can't afford

a bus ticket the longer you go without money i've gone almost a year and a half without money my savings is depleted there are other people who didn't have savings there are together three it's hard to organize people when they don't have internet and they don't have a phone and they don't have a roof over there at priorities change point survival we have to pay attention to many people who are in crib but it will mold country we are living a third world america and in fact. what do you think that it can stop or do you think that perhaps some of what used to be the american dream is now over because jobs have been taken over seas and because companies continue to take those jobs overseas. i think if we correct the bad policies there's a path and we start fixing our america for today will not only fix the american dream for us today but for my kids tomorrow where we have to start focusing on what's happening and yes i think we can fix it or we can't do it with the climate

that's happening in washington they're all about no this one's right that one's right no one discussing the problem. and working on it they worked on the debt ceiling and got comes a new. haven't heard much about unemployment and i've been unemployed for three years where's that coverage new coverage there stations been great many other stations nor if they don't want to talk about it where should we are like the elephant in the room that nobody wants about why do you think that is and that's something i brought up just earlier on the show too that the mainstream media for some reason doesn't really want to address the larger issues because it's so much easier of course to focus on the he said she said the daily affairs on capitol hill but why are people like you ignored. i think we're not because we're we her party on the democratic side we hurt president obama because if we are added to the number of unemployment the unemployment rate then right so therefore it's easy to

ignore on that and we're not part of that and the republicans were not part of that it's an agenda definitely not they only offer lots of insults then they go away the heart of it there's nothing in it for them besides they don't realize we are both are we are going to vote and we're not going to pick between good and that we're going to pick the person that represents so will you vote for president obama in two thousand and twelve considering that he hasn't addressed jobs at this point no i have not chosen my candidate a long time away from elections in two thousand and twelve i want solutions whoever provide those solutions will receive the ninety nine er's and forty million of. our run i want to thank you very much for joining us tonight talking about your story and as i said as of june there are now two million other people like you out there in america have been unemployed for ninety nine weeks or more and those numbers.
