tv Watching the Hawks RT August 25, 2017 6:00pm-6:30pm EDT
6:00 pm
if you like. greetings sal you taishan us. all right one more week in the books and remember that today is the oldest you've ever been in the youngest you'll ever be again. which brings us which i hope brings us the wisdom to see what's wrong in this world and the youthful energy to change it and they fundamentally wrong was definitely on the splay this week as the senate intelligence committee quietly released its annual intelligence authorization act for twenty eight team you see it apart from
6:01 pm
the usual rubber stamp blank checks our us congress gives to the intelligence community keep us all safe from the evil terrorists hiding under our beds and inside our i phones there was a a few oddities in this year's bill well oddities if you're not championing the deep state on a daily basis take for example a little section buried at the end of the bill provocatively entitled section six twenty three sons of congress on wiki leaks and just what is congress's sense of wiki leaks well the section is just one sentence and it reads quote it is the sense of congress that wiki leaks and the senior leadership of wiki leaks resemble a non-state hostile intelligence service often abetted by state actors and should be treated as such a service by the united states now anyone with any first amendment wisdom can see an awful lot of constitutional wrongs packed into that simple sentence and. so did
6:02 pm
senator ron wyden out of the great state of oregon who was the committee's lone vote of dissent against the bill specifically due to the constitutional dangers he he saw presented by congress as a new sense of wiki leaks you know i think i think it's about time we show the intelligence community and the deep state our sense of congress that our government's obsession with keeping their lives and actions top secret while shredding our rights to any kind of privacy as we know it so let's start watching the hawks. as a lot of. you know that i got. rolled
6:03 pm
over on the watch of the hawks i am the robot and i'm capital. and joining us today is his conservative two cents on wiki leaks the political and cultural divides in this country is the senior at senior contributor to red alert politics ryan desking welcome and thanks for having me on so so ryan i want to pick up that this provision in the intelligence authorization bill saying that essentially the u.s. congress itself is declaring that wiki leaks is not a journalistic organization but a hostile intelligence service in your opinion what kind of precedent is this setting. well not exactly sure if this is ever been done to two journalists assert to a journalist institute like wiki leaks that has had as long of a career they've had of not yellow journalism but really just printing reprinting where other people have said jeff wiki leaks isn't. in opinions wiki leaks as in
6:04 pm
print refurbish information they literally just give what governments are doing. and that is i think that's problematic as to journalists i think what what what state does it put american journalists who happen to work for wiki leaks or communicate with wiki leaks. there's a lot of things left unsaid and leaves a lot of room for for for a job a random judge or rand a member of the intelligence community to decide if someone's of a hostile act or an you know that's the big scare or this could bleed over and you could start kind of labeling any you know journalistic group or organization as a state hostile which is a bizarre term to begin with anyway which you know administration to administration that could change it seems awfully reactionary the bill passed out of committee on a fourteen to one vote with as you said senator ron wyden being the lone vote against it when asked for his thoughts regarding the wiki leaks provision he stated
6:05 pm
the damage done by wiki leaks to the united states is clear but with any new challenge to our country congress ought not react in a manner that could have negative consequences unforseen are not for our constitutional principles now ryan is a reactionary us congress. a dangerous us god. i think that it's just congress i don't know if it's there i don't know if we are ahead on the reactionary congress people as a whole are genuine genuinely reactionary so much of what what we're doing now and what congress is legislating is very much reactive and not very much proactive that's really a lot what we're debating about when we have presidential elections in the last one so much of it was on the republican side a reflex of the last twenty years on the democratic side to replace the last twenty years in terms of terrorism or national security or economics there's very little proactive conversation going on about. things like automation or trade or whatever
6:06 pm
and i think that that's one of the reasons why donald trump stood out compared to almost everybody else but that's besides the point but that is that is what congress always does they are reactionary they don't very few members i think in the history of congress you could probably point out maybe one hundred in the whole history of congress who sat there were really pro-active in in doing guarding the civic rights in the constitutional rights of everyday americans you know in the last and last couple years i think there is you know ron and rand paul ron wyden is one thomas massie justin amash and tulsa gabbert probably that's probably sadly about it that were really really i mean maybe jimmy duncan on walter jones but that was it i mean the whole entire congress maybe you can get seven or eight good house members and one or two good senators and three or four senators who really care a lot about civic rights and the constitutional rights and and keeping those things in check it is pretty incredible how quickly we forget you know what the basic
6:07 pm
tenants of our constitution stands for and yes all of those things are open for interpretation and debate i don't think our founding fathers you know wanted something they wanted something a little bit of debate that's why they didn't just say things hard right but at the same time you know wiki leaks is one of those things that presents a really interesting dynamic because you know many would argue that since the two thousand and sixteen election in the election of donald trump the julian assange and wiki leaks have strayed from their original beginnings as a politically unbiased organization you know fighting against state secrecy while others contend that most people's favorite realty of wiki leaks depends on whose information is being released so let me ask you as a as a conservative if a sanjian wiki leaks were releasing damning information on donald trump you know and love to see the republican party the way they have recently against the d n c you know would you still support them and their right to do that in their right to uncover these secrets well. it depends on what their release you know they're
6:08 pm
releasing a thing that trump cheated on the law nia then no i think that's a person i mean but that's the truth so much of what the press considers breaking news is really just personal stuff that's embarrassing i think the one thing that wiki leaks uniquely does try to do and i'm not that i work for them but it is unique to their institution their organization i don't see them ever trying to embarrass barack obama or embarrass. bernie sanders or hillary clinton or anybody or george bush or anybody i think they release information that is that people should know now if we said information a doll trump was secretly funding al qaeda in a proxy war in syria if he says that they released that president trump was spying on american journalists or that the n.s.a. was spying on each and every one of us or that mitch mcconnell was trying to prevent donald trump's staff from being filled or trying to prevent the sort of the i'm to be renominated twenty twenty yeah i would like to know that information as a as a voter as
6:09 pm
a journalist as somebody who cares about this country i think all that stuff is valid i think it's not valid as what the news often does cover which is just embarrassing information for the sake of ratings quick hits and and stuff like that speaking of ratings and click recently c.n.n. had a panel. on to discuss the president says statements surrounding the tragedy and. when that handle this surprise c.n.n. anchor allison camerata by declaring they saw problems on both sides of the protests the following exchange took place let's take a listen do you think this new nazis and white supremacists are the same as those who are protesting i think it's ridiculous to have me choose between. installing which is what i consider both groups are. so. what do you choose hitler.
6:10 pm
it is the most ridiculous thing in the entire world but i mean this is what we've come down to these are the conversations that we need to sit there and i have there's real news going on and if charlottesville is brought up again it will be over a week and the media does more to give attention to these very friends radical groups than any that they could ever do for themselves you know david duke would be literally a nobody of jake tapper and rachel maddow did not obsess about him each and every single solitary day the same is true as richard spencer the atlantic covered richard spencer censors speech back in december and forty five million people watched it on facebook i mean that he could never get that kind of audience and we're going to sit there and bring random random americans together and say now which one which side are you on and how can we define you as a hate group i mean it is absolutely ridiculous and it doesn't engage the american public or move a dialogue whatsoever do you think because it's a very patriotic thing that sort of thing green and a lot of i think baby boomers since you're with us or against us you know it goes
6:11 pm
back to the iraq war and we were told you're with us or against us and the first time i've heard it since the war again in a big capacity was during the election when the democrats and the clinton campaign sort of had this here with us or you're against us how dangerous is that. for everybody well i mean look at their act war what a disaster that was by having that mentality by sitting there and saying by telling pap you can he was an unpatriotic conservative because he dared question or dare question iraq war or even that like last week the talk of carlson or not last week but a few weeks ago talked carlson had on a war and he questioned the merits of continuing to stay in afghanistan and he was called unpatriotic it's the way they silence you and shut you up and it is really really really. it's at times when people are doing that is the most crucial where you should ask questions that's really the truth most awfully as you know ron i want to i want to end this we got
6:12 pm
a budget you know minute to minute slept is everybody is snowflake these days i mean on the right of that you know i mean because i believe that the first amendment is there to protect both popular speech and unpopular speech and unless you're actively shouting fire in the theater or you know pointing out someone in the crowd and saying go get that person you cannot complain if somebody says something you don't like or criticizes you for saying something stupid and insensitive why is the right and the left having such a hard time understanding that the first amendment door swings both ways i think as everyone has heard feelings and wants to feel like they i don't know exactly why they run to it but i feel like it is more of a leftist thing to try to silence them or stop them from speaking you know there's one thing about trying to do something and get public funds for it but if you are going to do a march for a park about i don't know anything anything you have a right to do it and no one has read shut you up and the media should stop ginning up these little fringe groups in the meantime and then i'll say i'll call so you
6:13 pm
know i'll criticize the right too because it also seems like it's like the moment someone criticizes them for saying something outlandish or something controversial then it's like oh oh don't criticize me you know that's my right but you're right i sure you know you're right i think that we're we're far too sensitive of a society right now we need to have these good debates so i got to say senior contributor a regular politics rioters thank you for coming out also called the station debaters. thank you. all right as we go to break our quarters don't forget to let us know what you figure the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter see our poll shows at our two dot com coming up sean stone talks to us foreign policy a career with all third investigative journalist to play escobar and we preview would back to buy with me or make your body and i believe mcgill stay true to. all the world's. and all the news companies merely players but what kind of partners are into america play r.t.
6:14 pm
america offers more. in many ways the news landscape is just like the theater. you could never when you're on. the look part of the play all the world's a stage all the world's a stage all the world and we are definitely a player. the mission of newsworthy is to go to the people we hear both sides we hear from both sides and we question more that journalists bring it home to the american people. fire and fury a certain motto for a denarius star gary and as he tries to survive the game of thrones atop the dragons and the name the president has chosen for his policy and north korea so
6:15 pm
attached is the commander in chief to the medieval sounding plan that even fired his best friend and political guru steve banyan after he dared question the wisdom of detonating the korean peninsula with telethons of dragon fire and radiation so how untethered is the fire and fury strategy from reality to shed some light on what might actually be coming down the road for the people of north korea's on stone sat down with investigative journalist that they ask of our. it's very interesting that steve bannon before he was ousted as the chief of staff had mentioned basically it said that the there was no military solution for the u.s. because of the north korea that if there was a military conflict it would basically obliterate ten million people in south korea and he said this is not a viable solution and then get ousted perhaps this shows me. the stronger of warmongers the more military industrial complex. chiefs basically stepping in and saying well we can't have voices like this undermining our strategy so what is the u.s.
6:16 pm
strategy looking like with as far as north korea is concerned sean that's a very good question because i'm sure the trump administration does nor in fact as if the obama administration knew you fact when you when you think that we're still talking about a war that it's only. there was in one thousand fifty three armistice but the war is not formally ended and when you have been to north korea seven years ago it might key question to everybody from the government that i met or was allowed to talk to was what is your solution for the korean peninsula and they would always say something very rational we will have to sit down with you and i did states at the d.m.z. and finish the korean war and then we can release some sort of deep dent because in fact our our major problem is not with south korea our major problem is with the
6:17 pm
united states in the war that's still ongoing so the russians and the chinese they have like you know the latest russia chinese joint proposal which was voiced by foreign minister lavrov a few days ago and obviously refuted by the industrial military complex in the u.s. which is a double frees you freeze these. absurd exercises military exercises us all scurry out which are essentially a rehearsal for regime change in some more lethal than ours and north korea stops their. military nuclear program and then you start the negotiation from this point on the ones assuming as well that you're going to discuss the end of the korean war it's a very sound proposal in at the same time when you have the americans making these threats which. you know the fire and fury trump threat
6:18 pm
it was completely absurd in culture and productive because they knew of anybody who . in washington knew that their response would be lethal and it was ok it was all. there was an element of a joke the score years were threatening to send missiles over and one because they they know that if they ever did that the american response would be. massive but then china intervene and what the chinese said was a single beauty of that because basically they said if north korea. and provoked unilaterally we are neutral meaning there is going to be regime change in the region is going to be north korea will be bombed and obviously with the retaliation against small with all those horrible unintended or intended consequences that we know about but if you do that if states backs north korea you'd be the last three
6:19 pm
we going to side with north korea and they were referring to their. strategic three d. which is in effect since one thousand nine hundred sixty one and i'm sure everybody at the pentagon north about it sold this idle threats don't go anywhere there's only one solution which once again would be to have u.s. and north korea on the table in all. other major players around. oh right hawk watchers the time has finally come around once again to preview the comedic stylings of our deeds hit comedy new show we're back to whether your on the left or the right completely bald or gorilla hair or your left coast or an east coast or blonde or brunette house of starker house autobots and decepticons you will find something to love every episode of er back to life unless of course you're the butt of their joke which if you are them take pride in the fact that you finally made it because if you're in the crosshairs of regard to light then you must have done
6:20 pm
something right with your life for actually probably something wrong something really really wrong wrong joining us now to preview this week's new episode of regard to smite our two folks who most definitely are the right kind of wrong we're back to tonight's correspondents natalie mcgill and the only cure a body i think should happen i think i love how you singled out harry people as an actual ethnic group it's time and time that somebody was not all that good smolder or her in any of those two sides was going to fall and the. covers both of us this is her and i have more growing out of things and so it works out well. to have you know it's across the board. natalie i heard that burger king this is. if i have this right sort of took a page out of game of thrones and has been active in the amputations for profit. oh yes off american oh ok. special regionals and nationals
6:21 pm
a regional issue so yeah so at the burger king in argentina they have this annual event called stacker day which is when they for one day of the year they sell this massive like five layer bacon cheese five patty burger for half off and this year data they decided to give half of the profits from stacker day to this company called atomic lab which is this company that makes three. printed prosthetics for free like they give them out for free and burger king is kind of exploiting these people because in their ad campaign it's essentially saying like well now you have this extra hand to like properly. massive beam of burgers which can lead to diabetes which can lead to this course or something about something we're giving a profit for and then you have an accident and. it's just like it's going to pick the wrong charity. locally you get what you want for you over an hour you.
6:22 pm
are going to. buy books or something. and i hear you have a clip yes. this is me talking. to you but i know what you're thinking cattle leave you're being too skeptical of burger king's motives and i assure you my skepticism isn't rooted in the fact that fast food leaves the bascule are diseases that will increase the number of abt sions in the u.s. to two point three million in thirty years or that hands free is actually the only way to get americans to eat something healthy. it's rooted in the fact that it's dangerous to rely on corporations to be our saviors especially when that same corporations ad campaign showed real burger king locations on fire in order to prove their burgers are flame broiled that ad seems as effective as an ad with
6:23 pm
a motel six on fire with the words will leave the light on for you what i'm talking about is corporate social responsibility the idea that corporations care about issues or even make you feel like you did something good with your money just as long as it doesn't hurt their profits. for the really good so you are also busy this week. how cool is that to be a psychologist who specializes in the practice of. well you don't have to do anything that's based in science at all and you just get paid eighty one million dollars by the cia it's amazing and. for just coming up with creative ways to make people suffer you know play music really loudly you know force feeding people forced nudity waterboarding came up with
6:24 pm
waterboarding so it's actually some good news because you may have forgotten about the torture report that came out two years ago when we found out that the government was stuffing people's but which. i don't remember where i was when i learned. what a beautiful moment. but anyways so the cia hasn't faced any accountability for all the illegal stuff that was happening in the enhanced interrogation program so it's actually comforting to see the. lawsuits going forward the psychologist did settle out of court. this is the i.a.e.a. covered their legal fees. for a great. year taken care of their retirement. we got them so. finally i think.
6:25 pm
what was lee doing this week doing getting. the know. is a military complex that's what i heard yes so we've talked this week about that nation article that came out a couple weeks ago that laid out the argument from the same intelligence professionals who said there were no w m d's in iraq. that it was unlucky likely that russia had the d n c among those being that it was a hack it was likely a leak was it internally for people from people who had access to computers and so yeah so we was basically saying that. the mainstream media is refusing to correct this issue because after months and months of saying russia did or pressured into russia did it the odds of them coming back to me like kind of yes that we're spending. so few articles talking about i'm working on some really
6:26 pm
really special specials about a. lot of special make a great history channel documentary right now. you know it's not news you know. right now it's going to talk about. everything are. we not a story line we're going to stick with it or you know this was. going to go to show rather than to. change show runners and. there was. always a pleasure don't miss regard to the night which airs every brother in order to america. which was exclusive interviews. every thursday to. starlight starbright best image of a dying star you'll see tonight astronomers at the european southern observatory in chile use their very large telescope interferometer to measure the motions of gases in the extended atmosphere surrounding stars what they captured is being hailed as
6:27 pm
the most detailed image ever captured of a star other than our own sun ontario is a red supergiant in the constellation scorpius and scientists believe she's at the end of her life very large telescope located on terrace which is almost six hundred and twenty light years from earth and managed to capture quite a new mystery to be solved what happens to all the. mass lost when a star goes supernova the turbulent surface observed on terra shows flows of gas are up to much further out from the surface of the star than thought previously so while the images may not be perfect to our naked eyes science is looking at the very first map of a dying star over three and a half quadrillion miles from earth goose bumps when he are recognizing our place in the universe where the clues to the mysteries of life are separated by light years so take a moment to look up into the night sky wherever you are and make
6:28 pm
