8:03 am
that the regime is no longer serving the national interest you need people in the military or the bureaucracy or both who are willing to see the regime change otherwise they would be able to put down a popular revolt but did not have support at higher levels. it's all to see we have a great we need to strengthen before the free world cold and you're better than a legend to keep it so it's at the back. in one thousand nine hundred two that must qualify for the european championships at the very last moment no one believed in us but we won and i'm hoping to bring some of that waving spirit to the. reason the had a lot of practice so i can guarantee you that peter schmeichel will be on the. best

young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million doing so today. this culture led to the development of bolivia's new liberal and highly controversial children's code in two thousand and fourteen which gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances but there's a new thing this. is only. eat with us in the end all. the things years. but there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely outside the local. school.
8:06 am
mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but it's never in force and that means the school boy minus here continue risking their lives for the money they need to survive on. the two thousand and eight economic crisis turned some countries into paid these are the countries with weaker economies that needed austerity policies if you are in a situation of low gloat even the recession austerity is a very bad idea it doesn't work and it makes millions of people very unhappy those who are unemployed see their wages decline the whole most a decade how good are the results she saw all of the new york city's welcome by the people gathered in which to watch the world get people to see what i do
8:07 am
a choice to be in full view she still plumbers i mean to for legal. challenge must deal with this she was always think they see something and not get it. while the same mission is still in place to one of the consequences to. bluebirds. will first. of this is the truth the consider is the consequences are actually quite acceptable to the decision. about what happens with the prison industrial complex meats on a hinge capitalism well prisoners across southern california cannot pay their way to a nicer. yeah for sale hundred dollars
8:08 am
a night wealthier prisoners can serve their sentences in relative comfort replete with flat screen t.v.'s a computer in every room and new beds it's called pay to stay and get messed up there now to explain more stuff in your prison watchdog jot about donald. not here what in deed. i wish i knew about this when i was in jail if i had to pay to stay often whom i never would have sworn loyalty to the area nation. i miss thirteen the latin gangs the blacker billick manly the mexican mafia the nazi low riders and the massaging maniacs. all of those i had to cover all my bases and nobody would mess with me. and yes the massaging maniacs are maniacal about massage you do not want to get on their bad.
8:09 am
jon you can't possibly pay to stay jails are fair the criminal justice system already pushes and you know it already crushes the poor was ridiculously expensive bail you got overworked public defenders and ultimately completely inhumane prison officers and i'm not i'm not saying it's fair i'm just saying if i knew stealing that cargo truck full of delicious island barry lying gummy worms was going to mean i didn't know being a human ashtray for eighteen months i never would have done it and if coughing up cash could put me in a nicer digs i would have done so it's disgusting that two people who committed the same crime can end up in a very different prison experience just because one has more money and and when you take into account the connection between wealth and race in this country the obvious take away is that mostly white people benefit from this well not this white person yeah but white people in general have not this one you say.
8:10 am
oh i don't follow. let's shift gears to the massive prison strike in florida that started this week operation push as it's called what's going on there ok well a florida prisons are kind of the opposite of pay this day they're more like don't get paid this day but still work and don't even think about parole because we're not about red dilatation here just vengeance. rolls right off the time it does you see forded prisoners are on strike because they don't get paid anything for the work they do while incarcerated so it kind of sort of totally is slave labor in addition they're getting price gouge left and right according to the inmates one case of soup on the street cost four dollars it cost us seventeen dollars on the inside this is highway robbery without a gun it certainly is and i for one stand in solidarity with those prisons for yeah you know guy. yeah i actually don't i mean florida
8:11 am
prisoners getting treated like human beings may somehow end up adversely affecting future pay to stay opportunities i may be in need of in that state. you're going to throw these people under the bus because of the off chance that you'll have to go to prison in florida that chance is not that off my friend. boca raton is where i decided to unload all those island bury lime gummy worms it turns out retired jews just love that flavor profile. and there's still a warrant out for my arrest i can't go back to ted by man i can't i never said i was. working or water is one of the building blocks of life unless it's filled with a toxic substance that is one of the wrecking balls of life for more on this developing story we sent our truth by not only mcgill to texas she filed this
8:12 am
report. drinking unfiltered water nowadays it's a lot like unprotected sex. it's refreshing if you're thirsty but it's an obvious risk to your health with a seventy five percent chance of afterburn that dumb think a brit a picture on your crotch will not fix. trust me i tried. but while the brighter filter can capture things like lead and mercury what it can't capture is radiation which is unfortunate given a recent environmental working group study finds one hundred and seventy million americans have cancer causing radioactive elements in their drinking water the studies california of two thousand and six standards for allowable levels of radiation and water since one thousand nine hundred seventy six was the last time the e.p.a. issued standards. and the e.p.a.
8:13 am
could stand an update considering that only a few decades earlier americans could purchase ratable or an energy drink filled with radium that promise not only to provide energy but your impotence of course of i ask any man if he was willing to let his bones disintegrate in order for the glow like darth vader's lightsaber on its debts star i think i know what he wouldn't say. texas has the most widespread contamination not just because of the toxic idiocy that spewed from the mouths of its last three governors but because the texas commission on environmental quality outright lied to the e.p.a. for several years about the level of radiation in its water under the leadership of cher kathleen hart at white the commission falsified data because she said e.p.a. standards for radiation levels in water were to be protective and expensive to
8:14 am
follow even though the commission admitted in two thousand and one that some types of radiation in the tap water. katz's communities pose an increased lifetime cancer risk of one in four hundred a local news team in houston pressed hard at white on the commission's decision but if you're wrong if you when you have there's all kinds of ways in the what if you're wrong and he was right well i don't see what do you mean what if you are wrong and if you are right about there being a danger that it would be it would be regrettable yeah that would be regrettable. almost as regrettable as trump nominating her in october to have the white house council on environmental quality even though democrats blocked her nomination in december truck decide at this moment to renominate her my guess is because he's hoping members of congress will forget this line of questioning she received from
8:15 am
oregon senator jeff merkley when you say that those who are concerned about global warming are. pig pagan is and totalitarian is in marxists when you say that you believe oregon's farmers who are concerned about three worst ever droughts with the impact of climate changes are marxist or to tell a curious or or pagans i believe those words senator with all due respect i've been taken out of context ok to be fair to heart at why those words were taken out of context because what she actually said was there is a real dark side of the kind of paganism the secular elites religion now being evidently global warming. didn't pay ends. they actually care about nature and he's certain it white things global warming is just the earth
8:16 am
burning up from a bad case of donna rhea while the federal government continues to bleed experts who actually know something about the environment we need to be vigilant about keeping people like her out of it because of trouble trying to dominate her twice you think she's become a better choice for this position. reporting from texas natalie mcgill redacted tonight. there are your headlines from the future coming up next week senate democrats fear they're running out of ways to empowered from. hands in one month alien to me in running simulation we call reality scolded by the parents for letting things get out of hand. and in three weeks during cabinet meeting
8:17 am
secretary of transportation hesitantly of forms trouble a small child is stuck in his neck but. that's the worst that's our show but we have started posting daily news and updates and exclusive videos redacted tonight dot com you can also get them by texting the word redacted to four four four nine nine nine it's free in the u.s. until next time goodnight. the new global economic war is unfolding in the realm of education the right to education as being supplanted by the right to access education low it's high education is becoming just another product that can be bought and sold but it's not just about education anymore it's also about running a business and what you're good models of the regime look good it's also the kind
8:18 am
of fellow i could name you. want is the place of students in this business model before college i was born now i'm an extremely more higher education the new global economic war. join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to get a feel of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then . young children have worked in bolivia for generations almost three quarters of a million doing so today. this culture led to the development of bolivia's new liberal and highly controversial children's code in two thousand and fourteen which
8:19 am
gave children as young as ten the right to work under certain circumstances but there's a new thing this. is all new for. eat but with that you have in the end all. the things years. but there are hundreds of thousands of children in bolivia operating completely outside the local. mining work is strictly forbidden by the children but it's never enforced and that means the school boy minus here continue risking their lives for the money they need to survive.
8:20 am
the headlines on r.t. international the war on terror is no longer america's top foreign policy priority instead the u.s. will focus on a global power play with russia and china which are its main threats on the world stage that's according to the secretary of defense james. is his second year in office the government is set to be shut down over a funding bill on the program we take a look back at the highs and the lows of the president's tenure so far. and a new red alert as a witch hunt against communism appears on the rise we told the story of a student who's been saying in the media that communism never actually.
8:21 am
thanks for sharing your saturday with us here on r.t. international we come to you live from the russian capital with the latest world headlines. so you can just go ahead and forget about the war on terror it's russia and china that are now america's biggest threat that's what the u.s. defense secretary james mattis spelt out as he unveiled the country's new foreign policy priorities. picks up the story trump's new defense doctrine could probably be summed up in just three words bring it on future it will be your longest and your worst day the war on terror is now secondary the priority is the new great game. great power competition not terrorism is now the primary focus of security. the logic here is that technological and hard power gap between the us and the competition is narrowing
8:22 am
and washington simply can't let that happen cannot expect success by the tomorrows conflicts with yesterday's weapons or equipment. investments in space and cyber space nuclear deterrent forces missile defense advanced autonomy systems and resilient and logistic will provide our high quality troops what they need to win my . that is a new arms race or races a nuclear arms race at me races cyber race space to what is
8:23 am
that ever made the world a safer place sure we can have competition and all of that internationally but we should be working more cooperatively with each other because last time i heard the cold war was over what i'm really concerned about is that we're going to be seen. draining i drain resources to something we really really don't need already they're talking about a hypersonic fighter who needs it that really requires billions upon billions of dollars of research and development and again it's really aimed at keeping the defense industry in business it's been said that budget cuts have done more damage to the u.s. military than anything else they say is an attempt to undo that damage but these are ambitious plans remember the f. thirty five or the colombia class submarines lethal weapons at least when it comes to destroying budgets but then that's what friends are for you know it winston
8:24 am
churchill it once said the only thing harder than fighting with the allies is fighting without them the growing economic strength of today's democracies and partners dictates they must now step up and do more. making everyone else pays this much is part of the plotinus all the fancy toys and europeans especially haven't been all that enthusiastic about spending fortunes in defense understandably but then there's a new domain to fight in the cyber world this is a wild west right now as you know people in their bedrooms can be doing things that are causing your bank account or problems at this point an urgent challenge and the u.s. is going to lend cyber force is giving them great think capability to deal with the random guys in their bedrooms i think we've got some serious challenges ahead we don't have the resources for the kind of spending that they want to do and
8:25 am
i think we need to be a great deal more concerned about how do we find resources are going to be allocated and we need to be meeting immediate threats and that's terrorism. and the white house is being mocked by a government wide shutdown that's off to the republican controlled senate refused to approve a bill to fund the government it has been though a bumpy twelve months for the president. now takes a look back at how tenure has unfolded so far. when trouble was sworn in a year ago emotions were running high on all sides. u.s. media described it as a pivotal moment in american history you're not having a terrible terrible dream also you're not dead and you haven't gone to hell it will be very bad americans and others will die washington d.c.
8:26 am
the establishment is terrified and they should be they call that the trump revolution promised to completely overhaul us foreign and economic policy he promised a brave new world that was cheered by his supporters and. reddened by his detractors as if just hoping an apocalypse so year on where are we well with all this america first rhetoric you might have thought that would have meant less interference in other countries well that's not exactly how it played out tonight i ordered a targeted military strike. there was another successful event we have many options for venezuela including a possible military option if necessary on the home front some promised a new level of protectionism against mexico and china but the usa is increasingly buying more foreign goods and producing less of its own the trade deficit with mexico is up by eleven percent the trade deficit with china is up by seven percent
8:27 am
unemployment is low but so are wages there is record amounts of household debt in the united states right now and retail stores are closing across the country and here's one thing that didn't change between trump and previous administrations during the election trump talked about getting along better with russia and his detractors called him a kremlin puppet but now one year later things which we washington and moscow are about the same as they were before bad for their action by the. congress to put these sanctions in place or the way they do best the decision they made that made it very overwhelming was a phrase that accepts that we may be at an all time low in terms of the relationship with russia this is built for a long period of time now trump promised to drain the swamp of corruption we are going to drink. it washington d.c. . but it looks like that swamp is still here and deeper than ever policy stay the same our foreign policy is the same the monetary policy in the federal
8:28 am
reserve is the same spending as the same deficits are still rising so there has not been any significant changes in the direction of our country which i had been hoping for is that he has perpetuated the. so many of our deeply flawed policies especially in foreign policy foreign policy is a little bit more confusing i'm very pleased he's at least made an honest effort that he's reduced the amount of regulations and i think that's one of the reasons we've had an economic boost. and that is that is good and he's made an effort to reduce taxes that's for from perfect but lower taxes less regulation is good and the marketplace is reflecting that oh and don't forget about that wall we're going to build the world we have no choice we have to. yeah how's that going we have some wonderful. prototypes that have been put up now
8:29 am
despite the president's ambitious timetable for construction it remains unclear when the wall might actually go up on the surface donald trump looks like a president like no other he's allowed brash he doesn't care about political correctness is even turned twitter into an official white house channel but if you look a little bit closer and judge him by his political actions he's a little bit more the rule than the exception. artsy new york trump's presidency so far has also been mocked by a string of quote catchphrases and diplomatic maneuvers which certainly kept the world in the media guessing what he was going to do next is a take on his tenure throughout the year.
8:30 am
donald trump's oath of office means nothing this is one of the most radical it may not be royal speeches we've ever done i'm not going to give you can you speak out if you are fake it is. donald trump's incoherence is all a direct result of the potential collusion rough inclusion of u.s. officials are growing increasingly concerned about possible russian intrusion. we've just launched fifteen. heading to iraq where we're headed to syria. heading towards syria.
