massive number that's impossible to reach plus we talked about earlier core if i remember greg is not exactly good to the topsoil if you're over producing core you know and we already are over farming for industrial for you know we're for things like that but tell me that the big question is illuminating the audience of why is corde so bad i mean i love corn look i'm i'm all for a biofuel alternative unfortunately biofuels like this and which you can use any that should alter whatever you can do you say no soybean is another one but again these are things that keep getting subsidized by the u.s. government and subsidize and subsidize now senators congressmen love that because they go to washington these bring these big subsidies and you have situations to the point that we're paying farmers to not grow things so that the prices remain a certain so that the corn market says so according to the cvo biofuel production and the mandates are responsible for about a thirty five percent increase in corn commodity which here's the thing it's not
6:01 pm
that it makes corn more expensive because we don't really grow corn for food the majority of the eighty million acres of corn fields in the u.s. are made to feed livestock say so when the prices for a fee goes you have the meat corporations and these industrial farming corporations are hormel zz and tyson and perdue are going to ultimately have to going to pick up somebody is going to have to pay for that increase in corn for in the corn prices are commodities because they're going into biofuel so then you look at the fact that they're just it's not a very green alternative to gasoline so because of the use of water and fertilizer so. it's a lot of people say it's just about equal to gasoline as far as greenhouse gas well really look at it there was a two thousand and eleven study from tepper school of business at carnegie mellon university and what they found was that using. based ethanol resulted in
6:02 pm
a. twenty percent greater greater greenhouse gas emissions than gasoline and that's simply because you're using fertilizer it's the process and you're tearing up the earth which again brings out that you know to which makes mars a greenhouse gases we don't grow food anymore i would answer we need cheaper food we don't need cheaper biofuel you think subsidize armors to make food to grow food for people so that poor people can have a vegetable once again thank you as we go to break aguado good point as a kind of record roger don't forget the what is no use a good topic to cover the place we're going to see our poll shows that are to dot com coming up america's lawyer himself like prepping for your toes off to the shops a light on a new report by the rights watch highlighting law enforcement. shadow we practice through something called parallel construction stay true to the truth.
6:03 pm
be everybody i'm steven both come on the task hollywood guy you suspect every proud american first of all i'm just george bush and our deal to say this is my buddy max famous financial guru that will use a little bit different i'm. going to tell a no no no no windows up with all the drama happening in our country i'm shooting the road have some fun meet everyday americans. and hopefully start to bridge the gap this is the great american two. days ago the u.s. secretary of defense james mattis updated in revived america's global defense strategy that is a dark vision of the world and calls for massive defense spending what he calls
6:04 pm
a defense strategy critics say is a blueprint for without it. yes there was but we. are told that you were. going to. remove the last election nobody else or the will go towards you is mostly we don't then we will soon will put you know one of the on the criminals or should i show. you the car you felt sorry for you you didn't go to the middle of the scouts move you the new coach the week you know it's going to be. easy to reason. that. you will know that. the person if you do the english leave and you get a call you but then you tell my boss leave you getting this old coach or he has an emergency meeting of us they didn't.
6:05 pm
don't. want. in an age of constant political turbulence in the permanent outrage culture many of us often take solace in having a rather solidly written constitution that protects our speech religion voting rights and the right above all to due process a lace that's what they taught us in high school because apparently ideals and reality may diverge in today's legal world you see according to a report out this month by human rights watch the federal government is deliberately concealing methods used by intelligence or law enforcement agencies to identify or investigate suspects including methods that may be legal and then creating a different story about how agents discovered the information leading to defendants going to prison without ever knowing enough to challenge the potentially rights violating origins of the cases against them legal experts refer to this alarming
6:06 pm
trend as parallel construction and it doesn't seem like her hyperbole to call it the single greatest threat to our constant. national right to due process to help us understand just how commonplace this practice is and how serious that may be we're joined today by might happen townie a host of america's lawyer and veteran trial attorney welcome michael how are you could be here why did you know this doesn't seem quite as simple as the nice clean cut investigations from say your law in order to be shows you can can you take us through this practice of what a parallel construction what what is that what is that exactly but well yeah the process they're calling parallel construction is a very clear violation of a person's fourth amendment rights i think to have at the laid out very well our law enforcement and intelligence agency and that they seem so hell bent on sending people to prison that they've completely thrown out the constitution i mean there's no way to analyze this without saying it's violence of clearly violative of so many
6:07 pm
parts of the competition of the constitution when law enforcement or intelligence agencies break the law judges typically prohibit prosecutors from introducing evidence that was obtained is result of those illegal operations that's why we had so many stopgaps that developed in the sixty's everything from search and seizure laws to mirandizing people all of these things were were put in place because we understand that left unchecked law enforcement seems to seems to devolve they fall they fall to the lowest operating level and so history in history has always shown us that and so in the sixty's we've the supreme court had had to get involved and they had to say we need to stop some of this so what's happened here this is a throwback this is a throwback kind of approach to getting to creating probable cause parallel construction removes an incentive for for law enforcement to play by the rules
6:08 pm
because all they do is they throw out a big net they listen to do they listen to telephone conversations. they spy on you with cameras they've got tons of there's no limitations to how this is used that's that's the point you don't want to miss there's no there's no limitation that says well we can't use it for this device but we can use it for this device think of it like this if you were to take this into into account it's almost as if everybody right now i mean anybody with a brain is afraid to talk in front of alexa about anything that significant lawyers are having remove them from their offices for god's sake ok so take private contractors that then become part of this is throwing out in that in saying ok we caught this person a talking to person b. and in there they were talking about drug exchange now we weren't listening to this for that reason we were said that we were doing this because we're we're worried about terrorism but in that conversation they find out there's some exchange so
6:09 pm
what do they do they wait outside of bees house and then as b. drives away they try to come up with another element of probable cause to arrest a and b. together even though it was the probable cause that that exists is all based on what we what we call will that center the poison fruit which was the first time that they heard the conversation so i although this is just a back door way of getting round everything that's been established all the way back to the sixty's to protect american citizens and criminal conduct you know is this it is this has this happens to someone you know regular citizen is this a matter of getting a really really good defense attorney who really understands and is competent in this field or in some ways our side of these tactics essentially unbeatable in court. well no they're beatable but it takes a lot of money the people who are most affected by this are people who can afford
6:10 pm
to go out and buy the best legal counsel they can to handle the probable cause the issue and to suggest that this is in the illegal search and that the evidence should be thrown out that takes a lot of work now when there's a pattern of practice like we're talking about here when this actually goes into full tilt you'll have police divisions all over this country all the way from the f.b.i. to your local sheriff's office that in some way are going to be using this information and they're not going they're going to know that billy bob down the road is involved in moonshining you know because they heard they heard some conversation between billy bob and somebody else so they're going to find another way to get to billy bob by way of probable cause here's the bigger picture and this is why your show can't overemphasize this i tell you this is sincerely as i can the issues that you talk about on your program about issues like deep state concerns what do we what happens when we have an f.b.i. that is spinning out of control and using thinks well there look you know like this
6:11 pm
like this this very issue of parallel construction what what happens when we fail to do what we did in the seventy's with the church hearings it's time for more hearings like listen you have a corrupt agency name it not mean you know f.b.i. cia is there any one of them that you would say yeah they operate by the all the rules so you have corrupt agencies all the way down to the local sometimes depending on where you're located in the united states your local police departments that are corrupt in many many ways this is a tool that they have now to use in so many ways along with things that you've talked about on the show in addition to that but the point here's the point i'm making the point is it's time for church hearings to start again look what's in the news today the story stories that you've covered just in the last few days you've got the you know of course the the russian fraudster. the fraud about the hacking where did that come from the f.b.i. the f.b.i.
6:12 pm
story about about documents disappearing the g.p.s. dos years story the new news memo i could go on i've got a whole page of this stuff what does that tell you it tells you that it's not just a symptom anymore what's happening is this is fundamental and you have to have something that looks like the church hearings that where we found out this j. edgar hoover cat you know dresses up like carmen miranda lives with his mother nut case a total nut case is running government out of fear and out of this very type of thing out of taking information and using it where he wants he's that's where we are now and for the american public not to understand how serious this is the only way they'll see it is massive hearings that look just like the church hearings where we start calling these people to testify about all parts of this because they're all connected well let me ask you this mike you know you bring up you know we need the church here and i love that idea and i think we need to start you know really getting to the root of this and really saying let's let's do the reset button let's
6:13 pm
start over root all this out how do we get the ball rolling how does your average citizen get that ball rolling to start with judges does it where does the five part is that you know work and be an american law can good attorneys where can people suddenly start making these changes and making that difference to make this happen . unfortunately it takes it takes people like church that had enough courage to say look i'm a i'm going to cross party lines i'm not republican i'm not democrat i'm just saying that democracy is at risk here so frank so frank church started off with hearings that at first looked innocuous and then as they grew we started finding out these different layers that are being unloaded not by not by corporate media these days corporate media is part of the problem but they're being unloaded element by element on social media on programs like yours programs like mine where we talk about it and of course you know the corporate media says all geez this isn't something that we should be talking about well it takes courage you've got to
6:14 pm
find a senator you've got to find a house rep that has the courage to say that i'm going to go and i'm going to make this an issue that requires hearings and the hearings not just about any one of these parts they're not just about you know the missing f.b.i. documents now that it's a horrible story they're not just about that they're not just about komi or mueller or all the all the intricacies involved in those characters they're looking at the whole picture and saying we have a deep state that is worse than anything we've had in american history since the one nine hundred seventy s. in which time that we clean house again that's the point i'm making and it could happen with just a couple of senators with courage the same type of thing that frank church did and honestly i'll tell you this right now as as our arcane as it may sound letters and constituents putting pressure on senators still does work today they still get they will still listen to the people if the people besiege their offices with enough
6:15 pm
calls to make that happen and saying hey let's let's do this let's get that foot forward let's do that and electing the right people will say it right here now we've got to start electing the right people to office throw out the democrat republican elites roll them out start getting in people who you know are out there . fighting for you at the end of the day i think that's the most they give you a little bit of time left about a less than a minute what's your final thought on the subject i want to tell you i want my final thought isn't this an irony ok here we have the deep state that wants to target trump they want to dismantle everything that we've done in the democratic process in electing a president i did electing i didn't vote for him but he is our president so they go after him in the process all these layers are unfolding and every layer is uglier than the next one and so is the layers unfold be careful what you ask for democrats john podesta hillary clinton f.b.i. cia be careful what you ask for because in the end it might tell us an awful lot
6:16 pm

money city with almost no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal was said that. these people are survivors of a world disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's how it's happened. ah ah ah. ah ah. ah. ah ah ah ah.
6:20 pm
ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah. flare tensions. the united nations the us russian proposal to create a new. beginning suspected chemical incidents in syria it comes after the us secretary of state. ultimately responsible for all chemical attacks in the country since twenty fifty. but we're not going to accept any russian proposal that undermines our ability to get to the truth of the fact that the u.s. proposal right from the start reveals the truth that they do not need an impartial investigative mechanism america's a chief sees this scale of destruction in this. is almost beyond description after u.s. forces devastating bombing campaign against islamic state. meddling allegations
6:21 pm
top u.s. democrats claim russian bots are responsible for intensifying calls for the release of a potentially explosive memo on social. exclusion of a number of clean russian athletes from the upcoming winter olympics triggers an odd cry in the sporting world. live from moscow every hour of the day international my names you know neil welcome to the program our top story there has been a fiery exchange between russia and america at the united nations over who's to blame for a chemical attacks in syria and how they should be investigated moscow's say as the previous investigative mechanism was completely flawed i'm not there needs to be a more transparent and credible system in place but the proposal was rejected by the u.s.
6:22 pm
. russia is complicit in the assad regime's atrocities you are actors judge and prosecutor russia is running from the facts your behavior exposes your true motives russia has the audacity to lecture this security council this is a long political spectacle we're not going to accept any russian proposal that undermines our ability to get to the truth we should at least have taken a look at the draft before rejecting it russia all on its own killed the mechanism we had specifically tasked to den of those responsible what do you need an investigative mechanism for before an investigation you have in queues the syrian government of using chemical weapons. the emergency security council meeting was called after reports emerged of another chemical attack in syria on monday the us secretary of state claimed that russia was ultimately responsible for that and all other such incidents since its twenty fifteen intervention in the conflict. whoever
6:23 pm
conducted the attack russia ultimately bears responsibility for the victims in these and countless other syria targeted with chemical weapons since russia became involved in syria the problem is it hasn't even been confirmed that these attacks even happened let alone who is responsible and there are only two sources saying this and both are notoriously pro-rebel this whole blame russia game continued at the security council and it seemed to be haley statements were more about russia than anything else she even accused russia of killing the joint investigative mechanism but at the meeting russia said that the joint investigative mechanism became a political tool and called for an impartial investigation into all cases of chemical weapons use in syria including the joint investigative mechanisms new reports so we're not going to accept any russian proposal that undermines our ability to get to the truth or that politicizes what must be an independent and impartial investigation. of the fact that the us dismissed up proposal right from the start
6:24 pm
reveals the truth that they do not need an impartial investigative mechanism even though several other member states supported the proposal of a new impartial investigation the us rejected it saying that it's ready to bring back the old joint investigative mechanism quote but all other suggestions are unacceptable. well a mechanism similar mention there was established in twenty fifteen by the un security council along with the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons together they draw up several reports accusing the syrian government of carving out chemical attacks it included one of the deadliest in in april last year however experts did not actually visit the site before reaching their conclusions well the monday for the joint teams investigation has now expired and moscow wants changes made and as mentioned a new body set up one of russia's the mans is the site visit should be part of any
6:25 pm
future investigation so that samples can be taken directly it also underlined the importance of i witness accounts which have been heavily relied upon in the past by the un well we heard from security political analyst. about the dispute he believes the us is deliberately trying to create difficulties for russia head of upcoming syrian peace talks in sochi this is the instigation i think by the americans because the timing is very interesting next week there's a conference and. a conference where the russian government is pushing forward the national reconciliation in syria let's say or national dialogue an exchange between the different values groups in thirty including the kurds by the way they want to get everything on a table to sit and talk and find a solution for the continuous suffering of the syrian people for so many years and and i think that it doesn't play into the american interest and therefore they want
6:26 pm
to actually cleared obstacles raising this issue and raising the tone in the security council russian proposal calls for a more credible. credibility investigation and the americans didn't even even interested in reading the russian proposal and that is the problem and that is the threat back to finding any solution. well with rex tillerson blaming moscow for chemical attacks in syria murat goes deah of the suffering and devastation caused by washington's involvement in the conflict the end justifies that means they say some things no matter how horrible just have to be done before hardcore fighters they have to be rooted out this is an ugly business but it is necessary business it's only after when the dust settles and you see what you've done that you start having second thoughts this is when you say damn what did i just do. the devastation goes back as far as you can see it is almost beyond description how
6:27 pm
deep the damage is as many as a thousand strikes a month on record alone just strikes not including. tanks and all that more than eighty percent of the city was deemed unfit to even by the u.n. a city hall but raised so let's start with the obvious incredible work has to be done just to get people back into their homes except we won't pay here is the disclaimer stabilisation not reconstruction the us will help fix the pipes but someone else is going to have to sort out the rest of this mess no sir the coalition freed you you do the rest we humanity ariens including the u.n. do not have access to iraq a city because of the presence of explosive hazard contamination which is
6:28 pm
endangering people trying to return to iraq a city and it's also endangering humanitarian access over two hundred people have died while trying to return to their homes and hundreds more have been injured from our understanding of the reports that we have only a limited number of neighborhoods in iraq a city have been cleared for returns and that's mainly in the outskirts. so who is going to pay to rebuild an entire city the guys who helped the straw it say they won't the civilians returning from tents in refugee camps the syrian government which doesn't even control raca who. with just weeks to go until the winter olympic games get under way in south korea more russian cleats are now expecting their dreams of competing to be dashed the international olympic committee has sent a list of eligible participants to moscow and among those missing are after the two have never feel the doping test in their entire careers. tensions in the sports
6:29 pm
world are hitting another high as the i.o.c. has confirmed that the number of russian athletes that are eligible to compete in the upcoming winter olympics is to be reduced now unexpectedly and without explanation now the full list of who is eligible has not yet been released but the russian olympic committee has disclosed a number of names that are thought to be who will be disqualified and that decision is ruffling feathers not only in russia but abroad as well a french sports outlet has published a article online condemning the disqualification of two athletes in particular we will not be embarrassed to speak about a denial of justice. and are banned from the olympics because they participated in the sochi games both have undergone hundreds of anti doping controls since two thousand and fourteen and dozens more in recent months control is carried out abroad controls carried out by independent bodies by federations and analyzed throughout europe never in russia the result over the last four years
6:30 pm
a biathlete has never tested positive. in the is a by athlete who brought a gold home from sochi and he and his team mates. or leaders of team russia and were both two main hopefuls for winning medals and south korea as well they're both world champions and in all of their years competing neither has ever tested positive for doping and that's one of the reason the the decision as an injustice the tone of this editorial will not please everyone that's obvious but there are still questions about the integrity of the decision makers since when can we condemn innocent sportsmen to punish the guilty is obvious to ban the russians that don't for the rest know the i.o.c. has promised to publish the full list of eligible athletes on sunday just under two weeks before the start of the games leaving an appeal unlikely and that means the number of russian athletes who are still reeling from the fact that they will not be able to compete under their.
