so the. audience technology innovation and all the lives developments around russia we've gone to the future are covered. to live on one hundred thirty three bucks a month for food i should try it because you know how fabulous i had lunch i got so many i mean i have my hands down i believe that i'm seeing the same thing really not. in the old story so personally apologize it's. worse for the link to. the white house or to the. radio guy minestrone i think what. we're about to give you never seen anything like this i'm told. what's going on i'm out in march and this is breaking the set today i want to talk

about him cuts not just any handcuffs it's a very controversial set of handcuffs to be the perfect addition for the growing holy state this is an illustration of the next generation of handcuffs created by scottsdale inventions in arizona the cust could be fitted with an accelerator own homemade or. butter that a tracking device a microphone a camera and a biometric sensor to measure your state of health not only that but the design also comes about how does a unit for electrodes i could deliver an electric shock to the detainee but the future is not the handcuffs of tomorrow wouldn't be complete without the ability to administer drugs directly into a suspect bloodstream that's right folks think a lot of the taser trained well things are g.p.s. surveillance handcuffs of the future and if your mind isn't blown yet stick around and about to break a sweat. you

know it's not every day that i have the opportunity to highlight a politician who's actually doing something good something inspiring so i'm happy that today i have that chance and it all comes down to the one basic need that we all take for granted food is exactly why newark mayor cory booker is trying to prove by taking on the snap challenge that he just finished today snap is the supplemental nutrition assistance program and with eight hundred fifty thousand new jerseyans on food stamps he thought it would be helpful to walk around and their shoes for a change so the challenge himself by pledging for one week on the same amount of money that the poor in this country are a lot of by the government's food assistance program get this that's roughly four dollars and thirty cents a day you know the same amount that more privileged americans will likely spend on one latte from starbucks needless to say he's found to be more than challenging

even debated making a meal out of mayonnaise and salsa he's been blogging about it on linked in where he wrote quote this is hard but what has me profoundly humbled is that this is just a week just one week and then i'm done and can and will throw out burn food but millions of americans are living with food insecurity with worries and concern about affording food healthy decent food for their families and their children their forty six million people living on food stamps in this country each of which is living with the insecurity that tomorrow they might not provide their families something as basic as food something that should be right and not a privilege. and with congress still considering sixteen billion in cuts to the federal food stamp program booker said that he hopes the challenge highlights the need to protect the fund that star state of all hunger for millions of americans each day so for being one of the only politicians willing to empathize with someone

in need by walking in their shoes you mayor cory booker are my hero of the day so he's the hero who's the villain well this one's quite an easy target today it's bob ryan and for those if you don't know who bob ryan is he's a top housing adviser in the obama administration for not much longer you see mr ryan is conveniently decided to jump ship yep next month the start of mortgage banking position at wells fargo so why is this a big deal well you have to dig a little deeper for that one see mr ryan has a pretty hefty resume that just screams conflict of interest first off his current position since two thousand and nine has been senior adviser to the secretary for housing and urban development last year he worked as a commissioner for the agency working on high risk f.h.a. loan resolutions but before that he was a faithful point for twenty six years at freddie mac. you remember them the government backed entity that every bailed out by our tax

dollars in two thousand and nine to help repay defaulted mortgages back in march mr ryan was a key player in the twenty five billion dollar mortgage for closer settlement between the country's five largest lenders including wells fargo now wells fargo is facing a lawsuit filed in october over f h a backed loans good thing mr ryan will be there for the rescue is the company's senior vice president sold for graciously a pit in my eyes in the corruption despicable revolving door relationship between washington and wall street banks mr bob ryan you're my villain of the day. well it's been eleven long years and the nine eleven attacks which left three thousand world citizens dead three buildings were completely demolished that day

which left behind a toxic cloud of dust and debris filling downtown manhattan for the weeks that followed the dust was polarized concrete especially metal particles and glass fibers among many other poisonous materials all of which were inhaled by forty thousand first responders and residents who rushed to help dig through the debris to search for survivors since then as to it's of one thousand first responders have already died from nine eleven illnesses and thousands more are dying right now and it's been a source of passionate debate among certain politicians this is congressman anthony weiner trying on the house floor to plead for bipartisan support to give health care to the sick and dying first responders. public you flapping your arms dr republicans are they doing the right thing on behalf of the us it is a shame shame. and finally obama signed the bill in early two thousand and eleven which provided two point eight billion dollars in health care for the

nine eleven heroes but it wasn't even until this year two thousand and twelve that the us government acknowledged that the fifty types of cancer causing the die off of first responders is linked to the poisonous dust cloud and yet not a single first responder has even seen a dime from this drug a bill despite thousands having applied for compensation for their own the says so talk to me more about this issue and the struggle the nine eleven first responders are facing today michael mcphillips a first responder and board member of the feel good foundation joins me from our new york studio thank you so much for coming on michael oh thank you for having us so i understand they are still dealing with some illnesses related to your efforts at ground zero can you give us an update. personally i have stage liver disease chronic. cronkite is sincere hope in several of the issues. thank you for sharing that how did you feel michael when the government pretty much hailed the first responders as heroes to help sell their wars and then they turned

their back on you when you guys needed their help the most devastated to say the least. emotionally and financially it's destroyed a lot of good people's lives. while passing is a droga act was a victory of sorts i mean but you voiced concern michael about aspects of the bill that fall short can you talk about the problems associated with this bill. there are several problems one it's underfunded. with cancer being added it's going to eat the money right up to the medical care. number two is nothing has been paid out yet and it's through no fault of. she's been doing a wonderful job. the attorneys and the applicants themselves or not filling out the paperwork correctly so that's one of the short pause why have announced well. we'll talk more specifically because i understand i mean not a dime has been paid out i think you know thousands i think oh something that i

read fifteen thousand people have already applied for this money i mean what is the holdup here michael. i believe it's fifteen hundred people i'm sorry i have two hundred yeah i have applied and. you know they've just been. you know there's problems on the applications people didn't fill it out properly then include their medical history with it they didn't include their financial shortfall it's issues like that that they're running into problems with and is anyone doing anything to accelerate this process and yes of course john feal with the feel good foundation has been on the phone constantly. feel burned down in order to help. accelerate it so we're hoping in january they'll start paying out some phones and what about you know of course i just mention in the intro but this year the government finally acknowledged the fifty types of cancer were even associated with

the nine eleven toxic dust cloud i mean have there been any more funds allocated to this the droga act now that they've acknowledged this cancer or is it just absorbed into the whole. amount no more money has been issued a matter of fact with the cuts coming up they want to take three hundred twenty million away from us out of our fund. that's where we're standing now and what's going on with that i know that the sequestration people are like you said they're actually saying that they should cut millions of toilers from a very limited amount allocated for the first responders i mean is anyone standing up for that what are the chances that this is actually going to happen. well according to gillibrand peter king they're fighting very very hard for us they've been absolutely incredible for the nine eleven first community and they say it's very unlikely that it will happen. well that's good so what's going on with the

feel good foundation and now i mean how can people help i think a lot of people first of all they don't know about this issue really it's kind of under reported michel and i don't think a lot of people really realize what they can do to help i mean they think that the government a lot of these funds and that it's kind of taken care of cases closed well initially the bill was for eight point seven billion dollars and the only way we could get it passed through congress through the senate was to cut it in half so i believe it's four point eight billion or something close to that. which really isn't a lot for forty thousand people that have been affected by the illnesses and by the club. well michael e.p.a. chief christine todd whitman of course we all know said in a statement immediately after nine eleven that the air was safe to breathe and obviously the government wanted wall street to mediately be reopened for business following the attacks i mean do you think that would give some peace to the first

responders to see some of these people held accountable that knowingly lied. oh absolutely i mean you know getting more street up and running was more important than our lives and our well being and that's just unacceptable. well what i have should be held accountable what i mean what happened i mean the government just said case closed on that as well that they couldn't be held accountable i mean is anyone doing anything at all to to help hold the people accountable that did knowingly lie and put forty thousand people's lives on the line just so wall street could run. i don't believe so and honestly i don't really know enough about that although i knows that. we did go and we were told the air was safe we weren't given proper. ventilators or you know face masks in order to prevent and helling the

the toxins and the world suffering now from indeed well thank you so much for coming on shedding a little bit of light on the ongoing struggle that you guys are facing could you give us a web site really quickly of of where people can go to learn more yes it's the feel good foundation f e a f o u n d a t i o one dot com feel good foundation dot com and if you can call your senators or call in to a public. time absolutely i mean it's an absolute disgrace cycle to see this government has told the first responders as heroes to try to sell the wars and then just pretty much throw turned their back on you and i really hope that you guys see some justice and get some health care for the on this is that you guys are facing thanks a lot for your time well thank you so much for having us. well if you like what you see so far go to our youtube channel at youtube dot com slash breaking the sat and

well see british science. that's the time to. go. to. market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy with mike stronger for a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to the reports on . the market is your job or she or anything like that.

oh. all right guys let's talk about syria ongoing civil war in the country has left tens of thousands dead and hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing to neighboring countries and the question over solution remains a hot topic of debate among the international community and in recent days the situation has become even more convoluted with allegations of the syrian rebel group all new sora being labeled as an offshoot of al-qaeda the corporate media hammering home how assad will soon use chemical weapons against civilians and evidence of how the u.s. has been supplying weapons for the rebel groups in syria all along. so to help us sort through the overload of information propaganda and rhetoric coming from all sides i was drawn earlier by a political commentator and video blogger meola harm or syrian girl partisan to the youtube community i first asked her to help sort through the propaganda about the

different factions that are fighting on the ground right now in the country. for this reason we have to this time a little bit. one of the biggest pieces of misinformation or disapprobation in the mainstream media i believe is the idea that you shouldn't in syria and spontaneously you know it's been in the works for years now if you believe the documents such as the brookings institute and the. u.s. general now another actually said it does in one that you had to attack seven countries in ten years which included iraq syria. iran eventually so this isn't a cloud in the works for a while and for now fourteen years going back the biggest opposition group inside syria is the muslim brotherhood group there was an organized group the.

powerful group in syria itself or of course the go so. this uprising is not required to put it into context it's a brotherhood uprising is political organization and from the very start we marched up and eleven it was already shooting it was already. but actions of this group of this political organization. started so the groups inside syria. they're characterized as secular at the say and up higher and higher as both really line between is is quiet saloon i mean that they are say it so it is a secretary in israel as muslim brotherhood organization and very small amount of them are secular. you have of course the foreign element these from all

over the middle east in the caucasus region in russia. to syria not only because of that ideological reasons but because they were promised a salary by the qatar government and saudi arabia which is also something that they said publicly so all these other different groups i would like to call to why the us has an arch of two years to live in one of these groups that has a new struggle as an on as an al-qaeda terrorists school. i think because. this group is the coast media for its various suicide bombings and terrorist activity but actually not very different from other groups inside syria. or by the syrian regime. that just recently there was a media article i think of from the telegraph the twenty ninth. of the

say have come together to reach out to the u.s. has lived in the straw a terrorist organization and organized to petition to say that we are all strong and. you have no heat brigade. that was quote by new york times journalists who were embedded with. sitting on a prisoner two i don't need to look at a government checkpoint and then unknown prisoners so i would doubt this distinction that the u.s. is trying to create between jihadists and. gently destroyed them but you know i think what they're trying to do is just absolve themselves of that they're arming terrorists right of course and we just

heard you know it's confirmed they've been supplying weapons we already knew that but it is interesting to see the corporate media kind of confirm what we already knew what about this chemical weapons rhetoric meaning i mean i just can't help but think of iraq when i hear all the score for the corporate media line the narrative kind of pushing all of this stuff about assad about to use chemical weapons it's impending it's going to happen. is there real threat that assad really has weapons or is this just a complete propaganda tool to rally people behind us intervention here. well i don't have tell you i've been positioned to say so or not but i think. i believe personally that yes they do have weapons but of course that was never. or. acknowledged by the syrian government so a little bit early i think. has not been signatory to any of the conventions

regarding can look in a way that is telling but the same time now you know the u.s. has the biggest weapons of mass destruction arsenal in the world and nuclear so it's a real that was done do it and you know they say the jury i will use these weapons against their own people i don't believe that they need to say that they won't but i don't believe that they need to because the syrian army is is basically. doing by controlling at this stage that is now and i think what's really going on here is not to fall first of all the u.s. is looking for ways to intervene as it did in iraq. heard the same rhetoric and suppose it intel that we're supposed to rely on you know turned out to be completely false in iraq but this time it was supposed to be a lie and were no reason whatsoever coming out of the u.s. saying that syria is moving its chemical weapons stores not sure if that you know

even know where they are so. it's like that media. people are obsessed. basically showed that the building of the. right will mean you just hit it right on the head there where you said it's the double standard i mean whether or not they even have weapons that's not the point the u.s. is sitting on the largest nuclear stockpile in the world the us is the only country to ever use nuclear weapons during war of course we're sitting on chemical weapons as well so that even have that as a justification for preemptive invasion is outrageous i mean so thank you for really hammering down that point which is really the point that needs to be made really quickly though i mean what is the real threat here of letting letting the u.s. or nato intervention happen in syria i mean syria's one of the last independent states in this region of course and it's a huge threat because it's independent from imperialist forces really raining

control over that whole region of the world i mean so what is the real threat of letting intervention happen and what do you advocate as a solution to the crisis there because there is you know it is very complex. you know i just wanting one comment about. just. i said this is my channel a few months ago and i believe that there is a risk. they say have been given chemical weapons and that i think just now the government soldiers come out and see it live here that the episode the syrian rebels will use these chemical weapons as a pretext for intervention for the u.s. but going on to a question of danger syria is the only independent country in the middle east a reason reason why it's being a tough by any to go and the u.s. because of for one thing it's positional israel i mean the jury has always been

a supporter of polls mean struggle. polls eileen under sixty years so. it's basically what are the biggest reasons why the u.s. and israel strong allies as we know strong to this no matter what the media tries to portray is trying to get rid of the alliance between iran and syria and also start that aren't hezbollah which as you know successfully pushed back the israeli attack on lebanon in two thousand and six so we'll put that perspective of basically turning. to another. failed state as in a gun. that this is clearly going to. give no help to the post killing people anyway and it's probably going to help the rest of the world either because. the syria. was trying to create an alternative oil.

that would help with. getting oil to europe but of course that would rival turkey qatar and israel were in using. those rival russia so it's there's a huge octopuses reasons but i think. with people in the world it's isn't going to talk of syria and what do you really quickly about thirty seconds on what do you advocate i know that you have a big following and people do look to you and you know firsthand you know or you your syrian you have connections there what do you advocate as a solution i mean people are dying obviously there it is a very complex situation and what do you think should be the solution well i think the reform is the solution you know i'm not a pro-government person buys a lot my country just like many other syrians i think i'm the star so you come out

to vote for a new constitution the majority of them did and i think that the people of the u.s. should. process and the world it should try to resist their government agenda inside syria to prevent these extremist elements from taking power and of course we will end up with a repeat of the last twenty years as well have gotten started well thank you very much for coming on breaking it down or syrian girl partisan on you tube everyone check it out really appreciate your time. thank you say you know. one thing that we forgot to talk about this interview is on the hard coach now of a ukrainian journalist who was kidnapped by the free syrian army because of her coverage in the country and work in a collaboration with r.t. she's now said to be executed in two days unless fifty million dollars ransom is given to the f.s.a. by the ukrainian and russian governments yet there's little no coverage on the

kidnapping and possible execution of coach not revealing another obvious bias toward these rebel factions from the western government so go to facebook dot com slash freon hard to learn more and spread the word because we can't count on the media to do it for us. you know sometimes you see a story and it seems so you think you understand it and then you glimpse something

else and you hear or see some other part of it and realize that everything you thought you knew you don't know i'm tom harvey welcome to the big picture.
