mike's cancer or a no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to kaiser report on our. what's up everyone i'm abby martin and this is breaking this that guys help and worry about the kind of literature children are leading in this country looks like cat and i have a very hungry caterpillar are so outdated i mean those are so two thousand and late which is why today i'm very excited about the release of ted cruz's brand new children's book this richest oracle narrative not only outlines his rise of the senate but it teaches america's children how to take their country back cruise style it's called ted cruz to the future but you're probably recalled ted cruz of the past because that's where this book is taking our kids one of the themes is the importance of religion when it comes to politics because it all separation of

church and state thing was just a suggestion another of course is obamacare it suggests that it's worse than mass murder for profit because according to ted cruz providing health care to poor people is quote worse than any war but the best part the absolute best part about this is that it's a coloring book which means your children will get a unique chance to interact with cruz's ideology and film the texas senators hall lifeless outline with color but surprisingly this isn't the first time that propaganda about the government has been made palatable for children who can forget the nine eleven commission reports dumbed down comic book version or what about the bin laden raid coloring book titled the kids book of freedom guys this trends go to and don't indoctrinate your kids with pre-established political beliefs before they can even read now let's break the set. the butler please please take another look very

hard to take the turkey. he ever had sex with her thick hair looking. like. i know i often harp on the dangers of nuclear energy on the show in fact i've called it technological insanity after all with the risk of radioactive disaster and no legitimate long term waste storage plan what else can you call it what if there was a nuclear alternative that could safely and effectively generate clean energy this

nuclear option might exist with the ram and element three to four times more abundant than iranian to explain everything in detail that is in the possibilities of this potentially revolutionary technology i was joined earlier by david martin chief executive of the weinberg foundation i started by asking him why is a better alternative to uranium and plutonium. for nuclear energy purposes really need to separate between saurian as a fuel but for the element. in field reactors i think that as you know there is some sometimes some confusion between the two and then i. flew out of the draw instance both of. you know technical challenges and also some pixels as well but i think in both cases for those three and fuels on the story is the the advanced as as far. the way that the disability. authorities feel would be one that we would be told to feel that would go in a traditional conventional reactors so the current generation of reactors. a light

water reactor for instance or heavy water reactor the kind of reactors that we've had for about the last fifty years by knowledge around the world. in fuel and those types of reactors would. be as a higher melting point so you have higher safety margins as a whole bunch of physical characteristics that make it a little more stable. perhaps more stable because the test is still coming in. but it is it will make it more stable more resilient even when used in current reactors and if it's used in currently axes then you can mix it up with plutonium or other pipes other or other types of nuclear waste and use it as a way of getting rid of that waste of children actors all the really you know the molten salt reactor i think is what most people think of as the story of a reactor. reactor is something that is it's a step change potentially in how we produce nuclear energy but perhaps even how we

paradigm shift in how we produce all of. my. why is currently dumped as waste instead of being used for energy purposes and why wasn't the primary element used when developing nuclear energy well it wasn't used to begin with properly i mean there are two main reasons right the first reason is is fundamentally the bomb. at the time that the nuclear industry the nuclear energy industry was being developed. really everybody would speak to bill agree that the primary focus was on producing plutonium. for nuclear bombs this is the heyday of the cold war the one nine hundred fifty s. one nine hundred sixty seventy's. doesn't produce any readily weaponize it will waste. the waste come out of thore i'm actually pretty difficult to. frankly and and would actually really inhibit somebody who wanted to build a bomb. the other side of it was there was a bomb doesn't produce weaponized but material and the second side of it was that

the authorities first. you have to have somebody kickstarted which school fits all driver and at the time in the fifty's and sixty's there wasn't really much of his own material around so they were really unable to consider starting up three reactors until the late sixty's talk about a four year three reactor test going on right now in norway what has been discovered so far and how far we still have to go until there's a viable technology those tests are specifically to develop a fuel that will. be able to be mixed with plutonium so it will be a good way of getting rid of the world's stock stockpile of plutonium. i think they will have a feel on the market probably within about five years certainly within the decade. in terms of the rule radical reactors the reactors which are really the sort of almost the holy grail of nuclear energy. i think we're probably looking at a bit longer if we would have a big push you know we could go to the moon inside of eight years i think we could build a reactor fairly quickly but for real you know on the timescales in the budget we've

got a variable at the moment sort of resources in the budgets we've got at the moment. i think it's going to be a bit of a long haul you know maybe fifteen to twenty years but what we really want to start to see and what we are starting to see our governments. energy corporations that are thinking outside the box. private invented as well really beginning to crack this problem so i think if there was a major effort. in international push to develop these. reactors perhaps to combat climate change then we could probably have something ready within fifteen years if you're talking about all these amazing capabilities that bremer has almost zero waste completely much more clean and the normal reactor that we're seeing now just clarify quickly three reactors. but also it's still produce some waste it's just the if you're talking about a molten salt react to the waste is far reduced. it's a complicated question but you know they reproduce less long lived waste let's put

it that way before you move on do you honestly. david can you break down the waste a question really quickly because i think people would appreciate what do you mean by that. sure ok ok right well. when. one of the problems with the conventional reactors that we have at the moment it's not a you know it's an issue is that the solid fuel rods essentially part of them becomes degraded over time so you have to take the fuel out when when you've only burned up about three percent of the field in the road that's one of the one of the reasons that we have an issue with high level what's called high level radioactive waste. if you have a molten salt reactor then you because the fuel is liquid you can just pass the fuel around the reactor continuously and burn up all of the all of the what are called the act nights in the reactor. which means that the waste that comes out i mean you're not going to drink it but the way it comes out is far less long lived you know would be would be safe within about three hundred years. however big

nuclear physics is a little more complicated than that in that for the for the three hundred years that some of that waste may be actually a little ball more intensely radioactive or harder to handle. and even conventional waste i just want to just want to clarify something on this on this waste issue as well regarding conventional nuclear waste i think there's a lot of. misconceptions about the waste here if you were entire life would be powered by nuclear energy the current generation of nuclear energy if your entire life would be powered by it it would produce. the amount of high level waste it would produce would fit inside a coke can. you know the people are often surprised to hear you know we need to start thinking in terms of volumes of waste rather than tonnage of waste nuclear waste being very dense that it's very heavy but doesn't take very much space. so even with the current technology a not bad we're talking about a coke can for our entire lives and that's for travel. saying that the current ways

that we're seeing with the nuclear reactors on earth today the waste is not as bad as it's made out to be as i would say. i think obviously it needs to be stored securely it needs to be handled well it is it is handled well. moment in general i mean i do agree with you because i see day after day just stories of nuclear waste not been able to be stored properly and it is really terrifying i think for people to understand how long lasting it is even if it is a small amount a lot of the waste we have of the moment can actually be really converted into fuel so it's actually still contains a lot of energy it's just that we need to develop the kinds of reactive spectrum reactors that can actually. react to that are capable of using the waste we have as fuel and breaking it up and making it less radioactive ok so we the u.k. for instance has a stockpile of plutonium so the field in the right reactor in advanced react to. the entire country for about five hundred years so you know we always we do have

lots of options we could we could put them back in the right kinds of reactors and generate electricity from it after fukushima i think that many people including me are wary of pursuing any type of nuclear power any type of nuclear energy why should people believe this is a smart and safe we attack our energy problems when we have more clean energy available geothermal solar wind wave exciter i think we have to think about the global the scale of the problem that we face globally. to me the reason i do the job that i do is because i am an environmentalist i always have been an environmentalist and learn more about climate change. however i also want a bright future for if i do one day have children and a bright future for my children and my children's children. if we look at the global picture it's clear that energy use is accelerating. we start a carbon emissions greenhouse gas emissions are still accelerating we have barely started to even slow the rate of increase. so we got a major problem. you know the i.p.c.c.

said that we've only really got about thirty years to sort of pretty much the entire economy. and you know at the moment there's only one way of doing it and that's to primarily decarbonising you know energy. and there's only one country on the planet really that's managed to compromise for these nuts and maintain a high level of living high standard of living for its inhabitants that's fronts eighty percent nuclear and some of the cleanest air in europe. so i think we need to look globally here you know we've got rising oh i would like to see you know look people around the planet be pulled out of poverty and one of the best ways of doing that is through cheap energy now all these coal plants never you know they're all in the pipeline anyway china's building thousands of coal plants you know that we need from the replacement for that so they're not going back in the books and renewables have a great role to play as there's a new geo fission see we need to use energy more efficiently. but geothermal as well but those technologies are just simply not enough david martin chief executive

weinberg foundation really appreciate you coming on. stick around you guys i sit down with tyrrell ventura to find out how he views this buzz saw the talk of the world. did you know the price is the only industry specifically mention of the constitution and. that's because a free and open press is critical to our democracy. in

fact the single biggest threat facing our nation today is the corporate takeover of our government and our press we've been hijacked handful of transnational corporations. they will profit by destroying what our founding fathers one so that's my job mark it on this show we were to feel the big picture of what's actually going on in the world we go beyond identifying the problem. rational debate real discussion political issues facing them for bill ready to join the movement and welcome to. the but. over the past few months we've learned that the n.s.a. spies on everyone from brazilian oil company executives to german chancellor angela

merkel but now a whole new group of people have to worry about being targeted by the spy agency no . that's right the newest leaked documents show that the n.s.a. along with its british counterpart g c h q had been monitoring the end game communications of people playing world of warcraft and second life why cause terrorism yes according to a two thousand and eight document titled exploiting terrorists use of games in virtual environments the n.s.a. calls these virtual playgrounds quote target rich communication networks where terrorists can hide in plain sight but online gaming attracts tens of millions of users worldwide so how could the n.s.a. possibly be monitoring all these communications by forcing their agents to save the world of warcraft by going into the world of warcraft right despite the lack of evidence of these fantasy field terrorist cells the n.s.a. devoted so many resources to this program and had so many agents playing the games

they did see how to make sure they weren't duplicating intelligence gathering or spying on each other. folks this is where your tax dollars are going not only are we paying n.s.a. agents to slay digital orcs and collect make believe gold we're also paying for these spooks to watch porn because if there's one thing the hardcore extremists love it's porn great so not only do i have to worry about getting honed by nums in the world of warcraft but now i have to worry about n.s.a. trolls too i guess even in a fantasy world privacy is just that a fantasy. i . right now public distrust of the corporate media is at an all time high it seems we're finally reaching the breaking point where people are waking up to the fact that the mainstream media is

nothing more than a mouthpiece for the corporate agenda as distrust had to record highs the airship for many of these networks has hit new lows the shift away from establishment news is giving way for independent journalist to provide information in new and innovative ways free from corporate bias and political pandering my next guest is one such journalist his name is tyrrell ventura and he's the co-host of an online talk show buzz saw as well as the son of a former minnesota governor jesse ventura thanks so much for coming on tyrrell it's a pleasure and an honor and welcome to the belly of the beast i see you as your cia and yeah and spent a nice little time in d.c. walking around was able to buy cia you're representing the herd well. let's get this right of the way because you're obviously much more than your father's son but how was it growing up in the ventura family a lot of types and brother bo was not younger it was brilliant growing up with my dad i couldn't ask for a better father he you know instilled a healthy dose of skepticism in me and you know also it was a great rock in a in

a beautiful human being to kind of have as a father figure and it was your house tapped it all while you were all we had a lot of fun when he was governor. right after he got out of office with found actually a bug. on the ground and then had a friend come out and take a look at the place and we realized the other bug their house for about four years which was a little interesting but you know when you're in the limelight like that you're kind of fighting the system you you have to expect certain things like that i mean my father had many run ins with the cia when he was governor so you know didn't didn't shock us but it was rather interesting and now look where we are today have come a long way tyrrell. seeing you know your close relationship with american politics growing up in a political family what do you see as the biggest hurdle facing the american political system the biggest hurdle for his american political system is the. eruption you know the amount of money that's pumped into our political system from not only just special interest but you know everything from the military industrial

complex and you know all the way up to the oil companies and big industry that's the hurdle and one of the things we have to fight and stop is that money whether it's through election reform or you know changing the system at its very core that is what we're fighting against because they they don't they don't look to the american people anymore for answers they look to their donors they look to their you know the people who get them elected year after year that's why you have career politicians who can shorten up the elections shorten up how long they can serve in office that's a big start you know because and then they're not making a life out of it right right it's a huge hurdle and it's kind of like where do you start because how do you you know tell these people who are executives in all these businesses just stop taking bribes. well character you know we don't have that you know i think the amount of corruption in washington is probably at its worst you know since we've seen i mean we saw back in the days of you know. you know back in the seventy's hundreds you can kind of it's a little harder to you can see it first hand a little bit here it's so intricate into the system that it's almost impossible to

get out of it is let's talk of the show that you were on with your dad conspiracy theory jesse ventura on tru t.v. how was it working in the mainstream media do you experience any sort of censorship along with the show you know it's interesting we only experienced censorship when we got into conspiracies that had yet to happen so we got into like police state and things like. that episode of a kind of pulled the plug on very quickly because we pursued i got to do real well we had to set off a senator. or call him who you know didn't like the fact that he had he had sponsored legislation that could in fact be used if necessary asli could be used to set up these pima camps and when we confronted him on that he had no idea it was even in the bill and it showed these what these politicians are they get handed what to write they get handed what to believe you know by think tanks and things like that they're really not responsible that they have no responsibility because we're getting cliff notes you know going up. they push this through you know i think i think it even like a large majority of bills are actually just completely written by lobbyists and they're going to no idea what the hell they're signing off on so when you do

a show like conspiracy theory that you can put on a cover of that and then we call them with their pants down you know about show them good science or but the great thing about today with the internet and things like that is you can't really censor something anymore you know once it hits the marketplace you know once it hits the web once it's out there you know there's copies of it versions of it anybody could see it and i think that's why the attack now is not so much on censorship but on p.r. you know bill destroy you and who you are through like publicity bad publicity and things like that that's how they assassinate you know people who are fighting to make a change in the characters as a nation they do that well another person has been character assassination and the mainstream media is all over stone of course is down to having the wall as all of you badasses are doing how did you guys all link up. we linked up. a little bit we're starting the third season of conspiracy theory and he's such a brilliant you know just dynamic individual is like oh you've got to come on and he has this great knowledge of everything from. like illuminati all the way down to

banking and things like that he's a brilliant guy went to princeton and then i was a producer i'd worked with in hollywood and so we all kind of came aboard on the buzz saw and we'd found it to live t.v. they approached us to do a show after we'd finished a conspiracy theory and it was coming because most of you know you two are fantastic we bring in tablets and we have a nice kind of little trifecta of thought. it's a great show and i've heard really great things from people who are watching it consistently last time i was on we talked about kind of the real most obvious conspiracy of all the corporatocracy i mean it's hidden in plain sight it's really irrefutable when you look at it do you think that it deters people from acknowledging this vast real conspiracy by discussing the reality in terms of like the illuminati and the new world order i think it does in the science that we we get caught up too much in the. the fantastical elements of the world whether they end up being true or not it's sexier to go that way than just looking at pure corporate greed you know and i always learn what my dad's instinctually drove into

me was the old nixon follow the money you know and if you follow the money you will see where the corruption lies and you'll see the the conspiracies and where the manipulation comes remember we're not fighting people who are sitting in a dark room twirling their evil mustache now we're fighting against people who believe they're doing right and that's the key you have to understand the thought patterns of the people that you're going up against otherwise how can you possibly change them how can you possibly win this war that we're in and i say it's a war because that is. what we're fighting against i like that you just said that because really these people do think that they're doing right that's not the evolved secret cabal who is trying to exterminate all of iraq and so we talked it was saint john to death but confession of his bother at his father admitted to being involved in the killing of john kennedy and his father when asked why he said well i was a patriot you know and so when you look at something like that my god they would kill our president well they're doing it because they believe that's in the best interest of this country in their best interests you know and so that's why it's

important to pay attention to what the motivations are just like the cia thinks is the best interest to take out you know. and overthrow democratic democratically elected leaders of other countries that it's i don't know why it's so hard of a stretch of people who would apply that same sort of program here when i was there and there are there's there's a paid cia member in every state legislature you know now they don't let that be known but there is not elected we're talking about a you know a state officials who are you know there for life you know they're in there you learn that when my father was governor so why you know why they're going to great question you know speaking of this whole conspiracy talk why is there no distinction between religion and conspiracies that actually the majority of americans believe in which is that j.f.k. questions about the nine eleven official story yet there's no distinction between those and i'm called as someone who believes that the moon landing wasn't real if bring i. these things that the majority of people believe in in the mainstream because he saw somewhere along the way the term conspiracy theorist was kind of manipulated into being oh you're not paul you know you believe everything is

a conspiracy well you know it's not you're not a nut ball you're a healthy dose of question if you do not study history you realize that all throughout history there's conspiracies there's a conspiracy to kill caesar you know that happens it's part of politics it's part of how the world runs it's not some fantastical thing you know when you get into the more of the abstract and there's a tear conspiracies that is out there to believe that there's reptilians running the world but we don't know about i mean who knows i've tried it i try to you know look at like the hard reality you know find the money follow those sources and you know see what i can physically you know kind of comprehend yeah because i think that when you know these people are kind of the boy who cried wolf feeling false flags that they're literally everything that happened in minutes i think it's really destroying incredible true thinking. let's move on now because we're almost out of time a lot of content completely cut through the left right paradigm and that's why i love the show so much talk about the struggle of uniting these two kind of radical factions left and right that's you're going over that over the summer and since i

started buzz saws able to really kind of see all of these different from like you know in the green party all the way to like the libertarians and the liberty movement things like that and the thing is that they all of a common enemy they all believe in the same changes they all want to change the same things problem is the very divided with how and i think the i think what we have to do in order to overcome all this is we have to stop you know narrowing our focus or to stop believing that i'm right and you're wrong everybody has good ideas to change the world and if we don't start paying attention and taking the little ideas one from here one from there one from there you know what will help us join up to overcome this these giants that we're fighting you know and i believe that that can happen i think it is happening when you said when i went to occupy camps you would see ron paul people sitting next to the green party people now their ideologies are completely different with how to change things but they all believe in the same cause and that's what we need we need togetherness we don't need to be . they want to divide it because if you divide them and get us fighting amongst ourselves then we're never going to change the system why do people need to close the circle for them because i feel like if i bring out aspects of libertarianism

aspects of socialism aspect of it i'm just put in a box and so it's easier not to listen to me how can we open this dialogue what you know i think i think the more information we put across whether shows like breaking the side or my own buzz saw the more that gets out there and the more different gas we have on the more different ideologies get on the more people become a little bit more oh you know what i did hear a good idea from that person i don't like him on all other fronts but i did hear a good idea from that person and i think that education will slowly chip away at that kind of instinctual i don't like you're different than me you know i'm not all changes that'll change you know we were able to do that with segregation we were able to do that all throughout history so it will happen again everyone check it out thank you so much tyrrell been a pleasure to have you in d.c. any one of those pens before you leave the most important. thanks so much you guys that's our show for tonight thanks for watching and i break all over again. of the .

wealthy british style it's time to. go. the market why not. find out what's really happening to the global economy with my extremes are the no holds barred look at the global financial headlines tune in to the report.

i would rather ask questions to people in positions of power instead of speaking on their behalf and that's why you can find my show larry king now right here on r.t. question for. a pleasure to have you with us here on our team today.

you know what i am janey yeah gunner with the assault section of the second platoon third special forces unit. and we're always on the alert for an armed conflict because if we get intelligence about militants in the neighborhood it's usually reliable but it was the squadron has played a part in conflicts before but this was the first attack of its kind on terrain like this. when we were expecting them we were ready for them at any moment but it was a very difficult area and they were able to open fire first. was not. used to them.
