south korea and japan and just a few countries have never even recognized the right of north korea to exist has not recognize them as a nation has no diplomatic relations so consequently who you talk to how you relate to them is always a little unclear no one is holding the united states feet to the fire to unconditionally sit down until there is a resolution to this issue so that we can work toward a nonproliferation in demilitarization of the korean peninsula. now it appears that the former f.b.i. director james comey heavily edited statements on hillary clinton's misuse of a private e-mail for official business the revelation comes from a release of f.b.i. documents and they even show a draft statement clearing clinton of any wrongdoing two months prior to the official results of the case the statement says the former f.b.i. director repeatedly edited documents to reduce the impact of her potential

mishandling of secret information he also made edits in order to downgrade the intelligence community community's role in the issue and the likelihood that hostile act is penetrated the e-mail server and this kind of reports there does seem to be a common theme to running three probes in washington. it turns out the detective work is not only for the f.b.i. at this point many different us institutions are engaged in investigations and it can get pretty confusing from person of us who could write a criminal investigation into president trump for possible obstruction of justice i grew up with the clinton investigation to twenty ten year rhenium deal that involved russia and i'm a fan of the investigation. first there was the probe into hillary clinton and her time as secretary of state when she used a private server for her e-mails and compromise national security we can call that probe number one. after that lawmakers who are unhappy with the

results launched a probe of their own to investigate the f.b.i. as initial probe will call that probe number two this found that one of the f.b.i. investigators peter struck exchange pro clinton and anti trump text messages with his colleague electronic records show that peter struck changed former f.b.i. director james comey earlier draft language describing clinton's actions in handling classified materials from quote grossly negligent to extremely careless so one of the f.b.i. agents who was doing the investigation may not have been completely impartial. now i hate to bring it up again but we all know about the ongoing investigation into allegations of russia trumped collusion we call that number three so agent strock is the link that connects all three he was investigating hillary clinton and

he himself was investigated in probe number two and he was investigating and working on programmer three before he was fired over those and text messages republicans obviously were not pleased so this is. one of the just happened to our country what happens when people who are supposed to cure the cause. to venture outside of even greater conflicts of interest and those that's not a question at this point it's pretty safe to say that the first three investigations were mass but congress has come up with a solution appoint a second special counsel to look into this to look into peter's drug bruce or everything else we've learned the last several weeks you guessed it more investigations. are seeing new york us political commentator john griffin believes another investigation would only mean a witch hunt against russia the bar has been set so low on this investigation especially after all intelligence agencies have said that they're absolutely was no

impact on vote tally and there's even disagreement as to whether or not russia did intervene in the u.s. election especially after the d.n.c. now came forward and said that there leaks were not related to a russian hack so i think that that any additional votes to geisha would not only be supposed fluids it would actually be a violation of double jeopardy laws and protections of the constitution and it would amount to nothing more than a witch i think this neo mccarthyism needs to stop while another story of russia u.s. alleged collusion dominated the media early this year the meeting between a russian lawyer and donald trump's eldest son the top of us and it's guy has been betrayed as a kremlin agent even though she repeatedly denies the use links last month she was asked to respond to questions from a u.s. senate committee and she wrote to the senate is stating that donald trump jr was seeking evidence of illegal donations to the clinton foundation when she said she

had no such proof he apparently lost interest in that conversation and it sky believes trump jr had misunderstood the nature of the meeting and she expects the senate committee to publish a written testimony but this never happened so she handed it to the u.s. media person it's told us more about the meeting in question. because look at this media world so this summer it dawned on me why mr trump decided to meet with me in person and why he decided to meet it's all linked to e-mails from mr goldstone who promised some incriminating information just look at the e-mail that got the attention of the president's son it was sent on june third and this is the latter that the congressman questioned me about this e-mail paints the whole picture of the spy drama that's been unfolding since july in the first part of the letter goldstone writes the crown prosecutor of russia has information that would incriminate hillary and her dealings with russia and you will receive this as part

of russia and its government support for your father when you see all this you can't help but wonder how such stuff could happen if the crown prosecutor from goldstone's latter is the russian prosecutor general it means that he's giving information that's actually in implicates russia itself in supporting one of the presidential candidates it is total nonsense that various government offices in the us are working with this nonsense spending millions of taxpayer dollars on investigations of peanuts and smear campaigns that ruin people's reputations and careers of course other score political points and become popular politicians or journalists and don't forget about the huge army of lawyers who also make money from mess they are happy so much excitement. watching our international celeb feeling this our child injury is reigniting anger troops currently stationed in japan we also talk with the world ice hockey chief about the prospects for russian

athletes the upcoming winter olympics but the cup. thank. you so much you can. put themselves on a lot. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president.

thank you to be this is what the book for. people. interested in the water out. there should be. welcome back now the u.s. military presence in the japanese island or canal is again fueling anger among locals that in the latest in the string of incidents a ten year old boy was injured by wind that fell off an american helicopter.

at the time of that incident some fifteen children were in the school playground and one more slightly hurt by that window which landed nearby weighing nearly ten kilos the u.s. marine corps says it has launched an investigation when the reverend come a shooter who lives on the island told us why locals are so disgruntled with their american writers on the t.v. or the mass media they are not big news really going on a good day in the mainland you know this kind of in two days or accidents happening all the time that's kinda gotten my friends here again larry. but only that sit in that on the rooftop. science still going to bring us. very close we want to change this to a time when. the very day before in tokyo or before you know all sorts of people in the middle. well the presence of the u.s.

military in a canal has been in the spotlight for more than twenty years and residents there have long demanded a total relocation over the is a number of u.s. service personnel have also been accused of killing and rapes on the allied. thank. you it was. i was was was was really you know have so many crying the. people. they were a. boy in the name of what are the main

reason we want our u.s. military bases on the island. of you know a very small island wary about a day and look at the how the whole way around them made but it basically. by. accidentally gave out that he that like we on the ground during. frances to completely ban mobile phones from primary and middle schools from the start of the next academic year they are already forbidding in classrooms but now youngsters will be barred from using their devices during breaks or between lessons and it is proving to be pretty divisive as we heard here an architect. they start looking at mobile phone they rely on social media to you seeing the best or worst of people on social media the sort i think why don't they just come i phones and talks about

friends during the break time play just do what we all used to do as kids and then take their friends when they go home and just you know just leave for what six hours you're legislating for i think a problem that really doesn't exist i mean i'm twenty five i remember when i was in secondary school and you weren't on your phone the entire time you know when you were in your breaks your other playing football or hanging out with your mates you're trying to deal the problem with being stereotyped by the media about young people constantly being on the phone constantly being hooked on it and it just it's a myth it doesn't really exist actually are rather going to computer in my session to go through that we've got enough computer at the university to not have to rely on phones schools most secondary schools and universities are slightly richer most secondary schools can afford. to have laptops or computers in every classroom so having the ability of having students access information online via their phones is quite useful to be honest my class were all quite happy to leave i phones i leave my phone in the office during university time so you know why can't they do the

same and they were kind of in agreement with may interaction between students and teachers the so important they need to leave the friends at home leave them told to leave the classroom even to break time they need to sort of concentrate on what they're doing with time and the fun is just a tool technology is not just going to suddenly go away. legislating is like being a luddite you know when when the invention of machinery started coming into factories and people were against that the realities of this kind of stuff is happening and people are moving forward and for me schools have to embrace than build it into their education system a lot more than they're doing at the moment telling kids not to do something they will end up doing the complete opposite so it's better to just embrace it and use it as a tool to expand. well the use of phones in schools is already a controversial topic elsewhere new york city introduced a similar rule back in two thousand and five but it was scrapped ten years later on the grounds that it was preventing parents from contacting their children

a recent study though by the london school of economics found that banning mobiles can improve academic results however under current rules in britain the decision is left to individual schools. the twenty eighteen winter olympics will soon kick off in south korea however i meet the doping scandal the russian flag and anthem are banned from the games and it's prompted debate on whether russian hockey players will be allowed to wear their famous red bull artie's in the trunk or spoke to the international ice hockey federation president a member of the i.o.c. twenty fassel. fifty days before the start of. facing the challenges we have is that. giving a country the right to use the. it's a very very tough decision but they i would say i'm very pleased. to choose from from the other for the racial problems you bring in your hockey federation you were

there all supporting really showing support really to the russian federation and for me a very good sign that in you we have this family spirit and that was one of the positive point but as i said the uniform. the flags and everything it's step by step you know weaving you go most and we will follow because this is this is a whole jobs who. what about the winter olympics without the n.h.l. players and also without the red machine because they will not be able to wear the red jerseys as far as his word is you don't need the jersey to be the red machine just be the red machine so. what would you tell the people that are saying that without the job players we ice hockey team during the winter olympics is getting somewhat similar to the football team sort of football tournament during the all of

that which to been there i don't you know they're not under twenty three so there were actually there would be the best players outside of the energy so it would be a pretty good hockey tournament. for trying to put in the questions there now at finally this hour a robot security guard designed to stop homeless people from settling on private property in san francisco has been booted off the job because locals were getting more than a little nervous when the device began patrolling the surrounding streets take.

you're watching r t international thanks be company this afternoon we'll have more news at the top of the. creditors one of the basic instruments to drive the economy but it can also lead to tragedy i did i took a line the whole gist i can be got and that that the debt style game and it was spiraling out of control. many lives have been broken really excessive that the banks got you into trouble. big bankers got big. government the banks bergdorf didn't think of the ordinary men who. rushed morning through the

back under don't buy creditors people see you know the future of bad faith and how you know you become ill you do to a job your relationship breaks down you become a casualty is dead a life long trip or is there a way out those are sure in front of it or no would work if you're to do for some more fluid or. just by accident i discovered about the struggle of the cuts that was a moment where isis targets the body looked like it was about to be destroyed and then as someone who put themselves on a kiss here are some people struggling for on the kist ideology if i didn't somebody with the skill with the ability to go and help those people in the existential struggle in a moment of need then my whole life i've not be a hypocrite.

at that your sudden passing i fondly just learnt you were a south in taking your last. year at the top to us beyond. what would i tell you i'm sorry i could so i write these last words in hopes to put to rest these things that i never got off my chest. i remember when we first met my life turned on each breath. but then my feelings started to change you talked about war like it was again still some more fun to feel those that didn't like to question our arc and i secretly promised to never be like him it said one does not leave a funeral the same as one enters the mind gets consumed with death this one quite different to speak to now because there are no other takers. claimed that

mainstream media has met its maker. oh american guys or this is a cause report the show that brings you more news in twenty six minutes than in the entire network of a missed what. that's right oh max we're going to talk about strategic scams on this episode of the kaiser report and i think these two stories i have here these two headlines juxtaposed together they tell an important story about empire and it is the shrinking wealth home expanding footprint abroad so first i'm going to look to a story about one of my favorite headlines talked about often and that is the

obamacare smart tactic but sad that americans need to be so strategic to afford health care and cornwell considered too drastic strategies in her quest to get affordable health insurance premiums last year for herself and her retired husband one was divorce another was taking thirty percent pay cut she chose the latter the maneuver slashed the premiums for the couple who lived in chattanooga tennessee from exorbitant to economical instead of two thousand one hundred dollars a month the amount she had been quoted for twenty seventeen their premiums are just eighty seven dollars monthly her lost income more than compensated for by qualifying for insurance subsidies they're seeing this now going into twenty eighteen where premiums are going up again you know we've talked about these two thousand dollars a month premiums but what americans are choosing to do is shrink their incomes in order to qualify for the free tax payer money everybody's at the trough of the

basically fraud and scams and you know getting some money out of the government is the only way to get wealthy in this sort of economy an imperial economy the american dream. is actually the french dream act like you know we lived in france for many years and the population spends all their day trying to game the system game the government and game the subsidies and avoid work at all costs and they call it socialism but it's just basically lazy ism or the exceptionalism that is for all law for all and so america is entering a late stage sclerotic growth of an empire that's in the decline like france before it the dollar's losing its status as a world reserve currency and so the population just burns all day trying to make one dime each other and the government well this is what you get as well when you have the sort of wealth and income gaps and opportunity gaps is that instead of

everybody just having a national health service or the french health care system is really good an equal everybody's treated equal here it's it's it's either you are like bled to death or you're given like world class health care for nothing for eighty seven dollars a month so those are the only two options so at a certain point and it made so much sense it was so obvious to see this coming is that this couple had eighty five thousand dollars in income and that meant she had to pay that was before taxes by the way so that meant they had to pay two thousand one hundred a month if she just lowered it to under sixty five thousand or sixty two thousand that she just gets it for free so why go through all that stress of coming up with twenty one hundred dollars a month working your mom off in order to get that money to pay that twenty one hundred and then just sit back you know she gets more days off she could just sit

at home do something else read books whatever and watch the quid pro quo for people who are happy to pay the maximum in the extortion racket that the drug and insurance companies got the government to impose an unconstitutional tax called obamacare is that they are bought in to. america's various foreign policies of rape and pillage for a few bucks that's the foreign policy or two pharmaceutical companies created opiate crisis domestically you don't hear anyone questioning that on m s n b c or c n b c or any of the mainstream media outlets they all buy into it they get paid a lot of money they'll pay the stipend to the health extortionist and the obamacare folks as long as they push the line that there is still an active non ghostlike population that's crawling around america fishing through garbage pails living on vive dollars a day and during the third world and try to game the system twenty four seventh's so here you have a situation where people have been and sent advice to earn less to be less to think less to strive less an order to get the free health care overseas anybody who's

connected in d.c. has connections or close to power and erik prince is one of these guys erik prince is a very good friend of steve bannon he's his sister is betsy demos who is the education secretary and the trumpet ministration well apparently he pitched a plan to strategically scam the american population and basically plunder afghanistan and thus exposing what the plan was all along private war erik prince has his eye on afghanistan's rare metals controversial private security tycoon erik prince has famously pitched an audacious plan to the trumpet ministration hire him to privatized the war in afghanistan using squads of security contractors now for the first time however buzz feed news is publishing that pitch a presentation that lays out how prince won the war from the us military and how he

in the war from the u.s. military and how he envisioned mining some of the most war torn provinces in afghanistan to help fund security operations and obtain strategic mineral resources for the u.s. once life for example shows that he believes that there's one trillion dollars. worth the rare earth metals and things like lithium for batteries in just helmand province and he wants to go get it he'll give the us government a cot and his private contractor says securities in his hit man his guys will go in there and and take it but you want to do a leveraged buyout of afghanistan he's pledging the collateral of the rare earths to fund his takeover of the country and to sell off the rare earth and to get a fee on the invasion now dick cheney pitch that the invasion of iraq would pay for itself from the revenues on the oil's yeah i thought it was a macho lobby. that's right and that turned out to be a sinkhole of multi-trillion dollar catastrophe and a human rights disaster i'm sure libya of korea hillary clinton was pitched in

a similar way they were to get off the well get the energy resources to do a leveraged buyout of libya greece that was totally destroyed as a quasi i leveraged buyout between hank paulson or john paulson hedge fund manager and lloyd blankfein of goldman sachs to turn that country into some kind of paradise for hedge fund managers so an area financier's like in this case erik prince former you know assassin for hire turned head from manager to go in and do a leveraged buyout of a country or a or or a company the results are encroaching all of awfully human rights catastrophe and no accountability this will be a disaster we'll get rich they'll be a lot of deaths a lot of murders a lot of disease and that will be written off and never talked about well there are new technologies that can basically offer the afghan people themselves access to that mineral wealth and that is something like an initial coin offering this is just right now before erik prince can sell this because he is still in d.c.

pitching this to all sorts of lawmakers trying to get him to go in there his private army to steal their resources well why don't they just like float and say hey you know here's our initial talk coin offering you could have a cut of our one trillion dollars in helmand helmand coin. you know they should offer it's worth a trillion dollars they'll take five hundred billion you come in come extract it. that they can immediately access that the the global financial crypto markets are desperate for investment opportunity if we push this virus far fokus yes it was banking finance minister of greece and we told them to go to bitcoin make bitcoin we talked about this you know say you actually but greece only had debt these guys have no debt zero debt from afghanistan and they've got thousands and trillions of dollars of resort as well as going to offer the petro as was going to be a crypto coin backed by mats or as you talked about in the previous episode with our guest from piers but but now i want to talk about this like what he is modeling

this on this is quick. speaking of imperial member i said these imperial nations you always see a shrinking of the wealth at home and x. as the footprint has to expand overseas and more and more is dedicated to keeping the edge of empire alive and people like erik prince very wealthy so prince briefed top trump administration official directly talked up his plan publicly on the d.c. circuit and published op eds about it he patterned the strategy he is pitching on the historical model of the old british east india company which had its own army and colonized much of britain's empire and india quote an east india company approach he wrote in the wall street journal will use cheaper private solutions to fill the gaps that plague the afghan security forces including reliable logistics and aviation support you know you go to the wall street journal you go to bloomberg or you go to financial times and you see all of this stuff openly discussed the

never gets the sauce on the shrieky cable news which is pushing hoax after hoax after hoax about very are social issues whereas the empire is being divided out and cut and chopped all the wealth stolen around the world in the only in. pages of the financial press well of course the east india company was a colossal failure and bubble the first could be the south sea bubble as well that the so am i confusing the limousine but it isn't a company was very very successful and. i think it was successful and was it was always a success this is a show about modern day and i'm just comparing erik prince that he is modeling this on a imperial previous empire how the east india company helped with their private armies to expand the british empire the british empire for sure has collapsed that is gone you can say that for sure that you got that right here we haven't.
