12:29 pm
we are being lied to by the president we are being lied to by the mainstream media this is my surprised face. last week famed people it's a prize winning journalist seymour hersh revealed the motivations and facts given by trump for bombing syria were about as truthful as a bill cosby testimony. and was that testimony for jell-o. put in which i still believe he legitimately lives. i want other to sell me the name of genoa. you remember trump justification for bombing was the use of chemical weapons by assad but hearst revealed that the syrian military did not use chemical weapons that the us military knew what assad's military was doing at the time and that the bombing was meant to hit a high level meeting of jihad as leaders and did just that hersh is source says it's this was not a chemical weapons strike that's a fairy tale military grade serin is odorless and invisible and death can come
12:30 pm
within a minute no clout so if it were seren there would be no cloud but instead there was a slow moving cloud of chemicals a bomb damage assessment by the u.s. military later determined that the heat and force of the five hundred pound syrian bomb triggered a series of secondary explosions that could have generated a huge toxic cloud formed by the release of the fertilizers disinfectants and other goods stored in the basement patients on the scene smelled of bleach suggesting they had been exposed to chlorine remember syrian gas has no smell and that way it's kind of the opposite of steve bannon so so if the u.s. military knew that this was likely not a chemical weapons attack. why didn't they tell trump why did they want to go more on what's happening in syria if it's a goddamn mass but it's not chemical weapons well seymour hersh states the trumps
12:31 pm
national security team did try to convince him but it was a bit they were about as effective as teaching math to a goldfish. because even if you get past the memory issues you still how's he going to work yeah because no hands. were says i learned of the total disconnect between the president and many of his military advisors as well as officers on the ground in the region who had an entirely different understanding of the nature of syria's attack all this time i was under the impression that trump was just and misinformed what are relieved to learn he's informed correctly but chooses to be dumb. or was. right. who am i going to go in there all this right if you watch the mainstream media you already know that syria did not launch chemical weapons. i saw
12:32 pm
a response to the syrian government using chemical weapons against innocent men women and children last night take out his airfields and prevent him from being able to use them to bomb innocent people and try sarah gas now i'm guided by the beauty of our weapons hitler who didn't even sink to the. to using chemical weapons chemical weapons against innocent men women and children in a sense before beauty of our weapons to using chemical weapons proxy serry gas now the united states of america is back. or nah. yes our corporate media apparently only bias trumps neko by the gallon when it involves the reasons for blowing up other countries essentially no serious discussion was given to questions about the chemical attack with every other allied
12:33 pm
trump tells and we can all agree he makes lance armstrong look like sojourner truth right. with all these other lies are mainstream media call him out for being strong full of shit the only thing they celebrate he's his war propaganda it's equivalent of being upset with your friend for his endless lying in regards to everything from foods ball scoring to to who bought the last round of drinks except when it comes to the tender dates he's been murdering and storing under is bad. when he lies about those you congratulate him and give him a job well done. and this is not the first time a president has led us into bombing a sovereign nation with the gleeful assistance of our media here are just three examples of many the iraq war i'm not sure if you're familiar with this minor footnote in america's distant past but the year was two thousand three and a strapping young lad named saddam hussein had really gotten our goat. following
12:34 pm
nine eleven hussein was discovered committing the unforgivable crime of ruling a country in the general vicinity of the country that actually birthed the hijackers who attacked us. but as he sat atop a lot of oil that he refused to just give us. and he dropped the petrodollar which is like our favorite kind of dollars. luckily his weapons of mass destruction program has seen here gave us an ironclad reason to invade he was preparing to kill oh no. many innocent people later after he had been toppled arrested a hanged and we had killed roughly a million innocent people we found his weapons program consisted of three guys with a slingshot. which might not sound bad but the sling shot could be retrofitted to launch stones the size of popeye us. in our defense after the million people were
12:35 pm
killed in new york times did issue a correction it read a correction over the past four years we reported that saddam hussein had weapons of mass destruction and therefore the us needed to invade iraq their story their society topple their government and kill a lot of people please ignore that reporting. it didn't actually say that but it shows. the vietnam war started following the gulf of tonkin incident even the name it's a lie the gulf of tonkin incident is actually two incidents that were actually one incident which is actually only a half an incident. on august second one hundred sixty board the u.s.s. maddox exchanged gunfire with three north vietnamese torpedo boats the us claimed the vietnamese fired first but in fact the u.s.s. mannix fired the first shots then two days later to us you have spent four hours
12:36 pm
firing on various radar targets that were attacking them they sunk to torpedo boats which may not you know which may have a sound like a wind right they sunk two boats but you have to take into account that those torpedo boats did not adhere to the traditional definition of existing. so it's actually surprising the u.s. navy didn't sink far more than just to imaginary boats why not report you saying billions of boat. that's right the u.s. military spent four hours shooting at rain clouds in the gulf of tonkin following that confrontation defense secretary mcnamara and vice president johnson to retaliate and the president agreed in the two thousand three documentary the fog of war former secretary of defense mcnamara admitted that the august fourth gulf of tonkin attack never happened. so our justification for getting involved in vietnam was two incidents which were actually only one incident which was actually our
12:37 pm
fault. over the next several years fifty eight thousand u.s. service members and as many as three point eight million vietnamese would die in the fighting but those rainclouds knew to step the back right of ghana's stand almost all the nine eleven hacker hijackers were from saudi arabia and osama bin laden was alternately found in pakistan but i. doubt if there is a god of so ask yourself how much cable news reporting you heard of the fact that truck bomb syria for a completely false reasons our media has a seemingly limitless amount of time and energy to get the story wrong but just can't seem to find the room to schedule in their schedule to get it right you know it's tough i got my daughter's recital i gotta do. it all the time for the reporting. also ask yourself why when assad is clearly winning the war against the rebels he would choose to do the one thing that would get america directly involved
12:38 pm
through t.g. clee it would be about the dumbest thing he could possibly do it would be like of the golden state warriors were up by twenty in the last sixty seconds of the n.b.a. finals and suddenly steph curry just stabbed le bron james in the thigh. sure it might get the braun out of the way i put it also land curry in jail following a game the warriors were about to win any right. if there is anything our nation's news channel should take seriously it's war so corporate media please drop your pom poms and do your damn job. but that was my less cynical ending where i pretend our media wants what's best for america and just needed a proper scolding to get back on track. here now is my actual and doing the corporate media is built is designed to cheer on aggressive nationalism and
12:39 pm
unquestioned jingoism they perpetrate a fraud on the american people in order to make sure we support the endless destruction of other countries and any reporter who does not bolster blind american hegemony is quickly stripped of their cushy job their gold plated health care and their sparkly cocktail parties before being put out to pasture whatever do you. think the media the r.c.c. the crazy. yeah good enough camels take the news from behind did everybody have
12:40 pm
a good july fourth did you. write it did you do like i did and celebrate by covering yourself in on the fool americans who got american flags t. shirts the american flag nipple clamps the american flag that's. covered everything here when a little shopping spray stabbings rare i got a you know you got to do it i have a big american cookout right before all american bout of diarrhea right here. say let's take a look at those things made in china made in taiwan medicine correia made in bangladesh and we wonder why the average american is true. going not even our nationalism is made in america. our own pride in her country is mass produced by a twelve year old in quantum allah who hates you i and really think that the sustainable model how do we want to know where this stuff going to go
12:41 pm
nowhere at all for want in self-delusion. growing up past have chopped. denial is not just a river in asia right and if it were we would bomb it because who are they to have the only dial. if we can have it no one will i mean honestly what do you think what do you think the sweatshop workers are thinking while they're making this because like man americans sure do love polyurethane. just. i can actually smell the fumes coming off the stuff don't get me wrong i have no problem with nationalism except for it being a figment of our imagination that we used to find an excuse to hate and kill each other in a similar manner to racism but not one not my point though i'm saying that even in something like this something like the simple wearing of july fourth garb it
12:42 pm
requires willful ignorance of what it says on the label. it sounds like you have to google where did my american flag had come from you know like it's that actress in that movie and you're like oh what is she from she's from something bam pyar thing i think i don't know something with teeth maybe a dentistry thing i don't she's from some it's not like that it does. it's right there made in china what does that mean for our society these tags symbolize the cutting of our own work force in the name of profit the completely inefficient use of goods and labor and the fact that these corporations have no allegiance to this country. no i mean budweiser is based in belgium burger king is based in canada it really is google and apple are based in ireland they move there just so they don't have to pay taxes your i phone doesn't give an i phone.
12:43 pm
these tags also represent the abuse of human beings in other countries and we're fight with them how do you how big would the label have to be before it became a concern of ours like what if the entire back of the shirt said made by bangladeshis when a child laborers could just send us a bit scared. to go left over one would that give us pause or will we just go about our hot dog in a way that. i'm just i'm asking for a friend as her friend we have to go pretty go to a quick break but join me on twitter at least camp and at redacted tonight plus i have live comedy shows coming up in minneapolis chicago and washington d.c. just email redacted tonight at r.t. america dot tv for details and to guess what arrived back.
12:44 pm
in the midst of least if. we do much to it which. completely comcast for example is a company that is an anti-american as they get it as if it's a company anti-democratic as it gets come to our city. of course they are. of course. parody trump epic sketches and think that their banks sold liberal attacking. her administrative office same time serving the terrorists so those people are in that so situation should understand that they are to.
12:45 pm
look. at those a say. there won't be cheap but then to hold the country so let's idea the right to go to his country he said if we give them everything they do to bust. this country. this is what we don't understand how we are in such a come to. this and to the ones at the same time. it was a monumental. similar salute done a good one to one leg of the us if you feel. the minutes of not that
12:46 pm
got leave again you know what to do with the phone or the computer without the plane. to come back to the place story you have to see. the best. game with the topic of independence day according to historian howard zinn the revolutionary war is considered one of america's holy wars not religious but meaning it's beyond reproach it's sacrosanct and you can't criticize it without the cold. active american psyche coming to life and bitch slapping you with the toby keith platinum album. why is that here now to explain is our senior historian john a vote on all. our other. was why can't we say anything bad about the american revolution because there's nothing bad to say.
12:47 pm
the war for independence was pure it's like a baby snow leopard living in the himalayan mountains of tibet or a kindergarten student with a brand new backpack. or a really good cocaine. your you know the revolutionary war wasn't pure war i'm glad the colonists escaped the tyranny of britain i'm glad that happened but it didn't mean end dependence for everyone right or it codified slavery in the law and at the time of the constitution only six percent of the people in america could vote yeah yeah but it was still a pretty great war all in all what about all of the killing and how else were the colonies supposed to get rid of them dirty red coats you know i mean when you're dealing with a brit you got to take your bayonet and jam it through is likely black heart will
12:48 pm
scream in yankee doodle dandy a the top of your audience the only way. this is it no there there were ten solid years of of nonviolent action taken by the colonists preceding the first battles it was so effective the by seven hundred seventy four british power was essential to disintegrate ok ok the story and here are right. and i have little to no idea what you're talking about you really should you probably should you know i just know the greatest hits right like no taxation without representation. and i memorized that famous poem by longfellow about paul revere the. i have no fear it's paul revere hey paul are the british near what's that first you want to be err no problem while you drink it shall i recite king lear perfect perfect all appear oh well john i think we're a little off track here john people need to know about the decade long nonviolent
12:49 pm
struggle struggle that involves tactics like boycotting and work refusal and creating an independent economy and a sense of shared american identity now for rich white male landowners i mean that's like the worst version of that fortune cookie game when you have to add like in bed at the end but instead you have to add four rich white male landowners right that they are passionate new romance appears in your life when you least expect it for a rich white male landowners. lame that's terrible you just carry fortune cookies were there whatever renowned political scientist gene sharp believes if the colonists didn't turn to armed struggle they might have even become free sooner well i mean just because he believes it doesn't mean it's true i mean people believe the earth rotates around the sun but that's not true. i added advantage of definitely is true along regardless of whether or not it can be proven that the
12:50 pm
colonies could have one nonviolently assuming that our only option was to fight a bloody war is just that it's an assumption well you know you're right the problem is once a historical event has occurred it's very difficult to imagine that that same result could have been achieved in a death in a different way like could cypress hill of written insane in the membrane without smoking the field of dungeon. because the revolutionary war was for a just cause independence we extrapolate therefore that it was a just war and we use that misguided extrapolation to rationalize future conflicts . how can you know that and not know the earth rotates around it so. i don't know i mean i don't know maybe the answer is right here. got another one. when hungary order more chinese food. for rich white male landowners. yes.
12:51 pm
there was a very important yet hardly talked about supreme court decision a couple of weeks ago so who are going to school us on some redacted correspondent only care of on. the supreme court at the close of their term this year buildout how bush officials despite the extreme abuses against innocent post nine eleven detainees a far reaching decision that critics are calling ominous dangerous disappointing shameful and saying increases executive power. this is not a good time for that after you see what's going on on twitter. you remember raised more than five thousand immigrants following nine eleven were put in indefinite
12:52 pm
detention suffer grisly abuse and were cut off from the outside world and especially more years you can see the amount of detainee's who were found to have connections to terrorism in mind sophisticated chart so i was you can see it zero percent but if you multiply that by with other side of the chart it's still zero percent you might not think that the target is that events but it clearly indicates the result and it could also be a group of going to one thousand nine hundred seventy one case called gibbons versus six you know well maybe we don't have time for that name this is cheney's consumed federal officials for damages for constitutional violations but not if they were acting in the ostensible interests of national security. according to justice kennedy's majority opinion in the case invoking national security to precisely allow for anything you can detain people on lawfully bomb countries
12:53 pm
cheat on your wife house pain publicly sometimes you can hear lawmakers say it's my national security and i'll cry of but i want to know why am i explaining all this to you of course you saw analysis of this monumental case on a c.n.n. panel actually put out a video that he was did was say closely you know saying it's fascism you know not your own movie that was them doing the important work of analyzing trump's wrestling name they had all kinds of specialists weigh in on what a sling means political commentators a veteran of reddit a veteran of the w w e and the chair he destroyed without them we would be smarter we would actually be a lot smarter soon after the attacks the f.b.i. had identified the hijackers and the hijackers networks however we learn from them again changing piece of evidence in the case ashcroft intended to racially profile
12:54 pm
as cross had one of the agencies to investigate individuals with muslim sounding names and they weren't even good at racially profiling because they arrested not only muslims but also jewish israelis hindus sikhs and this falafel plan which found himself in custody reach is understandable falafel would catch up we know me you came from foreign chickpeas are not bowling anyone with that condiment cover the cia acted upon ninety six thousand terrorism related tips from the public according to f.b.i. whistleblower colleen rally the most common citizen tips we receive is something to the effect of i don't want you to think i'm prejudiced. because i know i know oh of course not it's only things that what i just have to report this what is it is a cons bombs ticking luggage we're worse two decade old who with me you
12:55 pm
know none of those things tape was usually about an arrow middle eastern man the tipster lives by or works with so to the noble citizen who called the f.b.i. on my dad was it because he is really dark skin or because you saw him curse at his lawnmower in arabic the lower courts determined that high ranking officials should all be held liable but the high court reversed that decision because officials me second guessed difficult place and necessary decisions concerning national security policy we threw innocent people in jail executed the wrong people during other wars and now we're always out or so yeah second guess please take a second phone a friend peruse the constitution take a leak see on your ashcroft for just
12:56 pm
