i'm related to as you. just said. and that's becoming so polarized as they feel talking. to you guys optimistic about your future are you still like america is still a place where you. feel you want to be. doesn't change. me and. i can't be part of. that. i like to my. house but i'm just with the current state of the country. i'm worried that if. that's a very honest observation here's a guy with a. gap i'm pressure issue. for me i feel like the opportunity is still there and i can still pay my own way life will still be fairly safe for me regardless of my

lab here and i'll like that like it's a bit different in terms of people being a little bit. optional and react in terms of certain topics just kind of try to shy away from. but. i think. the cross country and the great american the rich. people deserve the peace will there be continued protest i think most people here i just am. speaking africans are not about each other and. people in a lot of. the so cut it seems to me like i know one more pill let's join the pilgrim and. stephen never heard from these pilgrims again this one nobody remembers a pilgrimage here anybody. who only knows. great america i'm

not entirely. for an eight year old you know you want to study already are you not sure i would go out in anthropology and anthropologists. maybe that's very interesting work very gratifying and put off well if you stay on it listen you can do anything that's part of what we're doing here is we're retarded folks pretty american government just mean in our being with my dogs driving around saying to folks like what do you do for. work when i'm retired and retired law enforcement of course you're going to have a perception of certain that you're going to have a perception of what's best for your son post this most recent election just go up this. from. aspects of people's opinions and judge it's political for perspectives and to suggest. we've had amazing conversations i'm just focused on if somebody look. because they are the

problem to me is i haven't been listening i know a whole lot more about other folks get this oh that's what listening sounds like it's just a journey to try to hear people's hearts about what america means to them. who would your response to what is america. means freedom means you can do whatever you want to be whatever you want. i always tell my sons you're not going to get anything by stand around something. what do you tell your older you. know much. like who. are from your person you need something made we make ourselves to fix whatever we need. self-sufficient on the farm pretty much the welding thing doesn't come natural to me we do it it's fun a lot of people don't want to work like a lot of people don't want to get hot sweaty and dirty and and i don't like to either but those are skills and things that are going to get to me it is next

generations so what's been your experience in chicago you've been looking around it was all work work work work at school as my wife my other son i love the history of everything we're trying to teach. me and my younger son we look at everything as bell everything's been made that's not stuff you know from our on the farm generally we're such a good worker to say we're time for another i talian a pizza or not no no it's not that and i'm on the way that's not chinese to. business returned to the depot to the bits i do gratis for chicago. for free to meet you guys good to me jog less you get you to say later go after helping this family discover one food item that everyone knows about in chicago steven decides to head to a restaurant to meet up with an old friend and hopefully find its ties.

so we were over at. this barbershop with sue me and. it was incredible incredible just to come to chicago and hear from local people what's going on what do they think what why do they think certain problems exist. finally oh there he is you know not in the desert you know it's making my way here look at where stevie be you know leaving me out there you ran up and i'm honest like a check like i know where to go and no ronnie i was in the middle of the cone it's funny that's not how we remember it for a brother fired or sticker clean stacy you have to head out for kaiser report things that. god bless freddie finally found out

you know it took me like half an hour look at all or chicago here for your commitment to the film you know we didn't have an extravagant budget but this is a what was this greco ability i don't know friend of the family you might know a name william baldwin oh yeah the cute one billion have the answer i got it well this young man there william used to gallop danced together really so i'm coming to chicago i go to said mr grech because he's got one of the best restaurants in the entire city this is your place i can hardly say i'm going down the road is fantastic garlic onions everything that turns out. so those same low beams and food young man here. huge fan of the kinds of the poor. yeah we were surprised too would you please be sure to say love did let's. fuck right i don't maximus mean shit right what's your name max when. it is next best i learned

that it suited me nice to meet you say are you gonna go yeah i've been here my whole life really watch our show i've been watching of her bout two years so are you the only one in your circle of friends that watches my show because whenever i show off in that town it's usually one person and they are kind of like this is secret to guilty pleasure i'm actually scheduled to be an sharknado part seven but you'll start shooting sometime in two thousand and twenty four it's a bit of a guilty pleasure. when you study window and i want you i'm twenty six studied finance university in chicago's hold the ball university all right was the congo school of finance is quite famous milton friedman and all those guys write it it's right it's not new following the footsteps of and so that minor school because if you want to get the step chapter one of max's version of how to win friends and influence people threaten bodily harm i was originally thinking that way and i sort

of changed my mind because i want to show. knows more about the people in play and so i didn't really seem to get along with brett so he had to go to the finance and do more business sort of i sort of segue it out of finance actually i got interested to. see the science so data science and money this sounds like a prelude to pinpoint getting into because i think the person i wish i'd gotten in the bitcoin ten years i recommended. you got two kids i'm going to write a lie and. how we do want to build a house a house a house life for the. smart make good choices they've got their mom on their back you know only through the door that you see that you're just an old school school new. more old school say because while you came from grandma you know that's

a tradition we know and we. try to instill the good values but you know progress into. the society today people. who are out there today do you know where you're. not here the next generation are you millennial i'm a millennial so you are a millennial yes. that's correct that's you have the biggest demographic ever since the baby boomers is bigger than the face of the twenty six years old so i think that puts me in the category seems to be a lot of discussion in this country about. where we're going as a country you've got the power to change the world. that's something i think about actually is. so i think of the younger group as a bit more liberal than the older wimbledon group where we go change as a demographic as a whole this country but sometimes it doesn't seem that way it seems like we're going in reverse sometimes we're all so that it's cyclical cyclical i'm not sure so

there's less cohesion that's what it's for a tribalism. right and that's got to worry i think to some degree what's going to bring together backs i mean you watch my show you're into the crypt and yet my name i'm relying on you just all these problems will be here forever what you going to do i don't think i'm the solution to the pros ok that's great news back to school like there's a few things that are in there that was learned by grandma. so the plight of the men you hear some opponents grammar. grammar care and. yeah a lot of our grammar influences of those who are that that's in the you made the linguine with white clams there was fun to watch you. kill back to my roots tell me about chicago a little bit is that a you hear different stories about chicago there are things going on you know what's the truth tell me the real deal. so i think i've seen sort of all sides of chicago i've worked for a tutor on the south side so. experience some of the gang violence you see where

there was one night where. there is a parent teacher conference and as their parents are leaving the school there was a shooting and five people were shot and then the north side everything's great and indeed it's just amazing. difference between the two sides you know how does it affect you you're starting out just a place to grow your business your family or is it becoming too stressed roles or too much violence or what how do you feel about that i think it's sort of like up and coming areas in chicago that's i would still recommend she still love it i still love it it's still happening it's a great sports town yeah exactly and i do have an inferiority complex about being you know not as great as new york city and. you know tell the truth i think i think chicago's got new york. that's crazy talk now it's a good thing stephen didn't hear that great to meet you miss me all right people real. food was. pushing great

ground thank. you so can you describe the millennium i was really nice to me i didn't manage to rip them off about fifty thousand troops i didn't really have no idea they had this phone open this whole kowtows world wide open i did scan it with my phone i got like fifty thousand from this get it so that's the way you go oh explain later that would be an adult all about. you know i'm only kidding i'm only it's a joke of course he was a very nice guy and i actually gave him five dollars for the day did you really said yes. would you rather dash reduction for a dash or get your next one with a hundred dollars in damage to my credit that was fantastic oh yeah. fortunately for you mr grech has no interest. oh it's just some of the most delicious foods to us to offer. when we recommend

a plan primers or one of the best pizzas in the city. rather. a favor on the way after stephen a max reunite they continue on the pilgrimage and head toward the northeast to the birthplace of america next great american calling her thinking oh. well they think of the following religion of talent so it's either you're selling solar or you're there for religion or something so oh well that wasn't for you to work to just. tell me you know i had a little cafe called a sweeping cafe and he was here filming flat so my place they gravitated to we bonded we became friends we started hanging out it's been a lifelong friendship i was at his wedding he was a marwood. there i don't recollect what our previous say any such activity nor if i did recollect i would not be able to disclose sexual

liberation this has been a good. drive to medication is widespread on the us market and a frequent cause of death at that point in my life i just felt like everything with my family was literally coming unglued i had actually planned. to commit some site watch all who has made antidepressants so commonly used we were doing what the doctors told us to do we were being responsible and what the real side effects. was. what i did was done on a cocktail of legal drugs. just because something's legal doesn't mean it's sent. if i were a publicist indian i would seek to have myself and all of my friends and my family

of leaders at the local level to a national level be arrested by israel what you need to do is hold a mirror up to the israeli people and say this is what you're creating this is the reality on the ground we're not using violence we will not cooperate with the occupation and more i plead with the public opinion on the nonviolent struggle because if you use violence you will never get the support of the israelis for the world. exists says harlan kentucky. we've all moved the voice you can go green street families leave.

a co money city with no coal mines left. the jobs are gone all the coal mines the fed that's. love to see these people the survivors of disappearing before their eyes. i remember thinking when i was younger that if anything ever happened to the coal mines here and that it would become a ghost town but i never thought in a million years i would see that and it's happening it's happened. down. not because we think. what is good then.

a new front opened by turkey against kurds in northern syria worsens already tense ties both between and current washington and kurds in washington we look at the deepening divisions. donald trump attends the probe localise nation doubles the economic forum but instead of supporting the party he launched a charm offensive to lure big business to america. and throughout the week afghanistan has seen a wave of deadly terror attacks which explained more than one hundred lives. a very warm welcome you are watching the weekly here on r.t.

international all the latest headlines and a roundup of the stories that shape the week. it's been a little over a week since turkey rolled its first tanks into northern syria and dispatched its first helicopters into its neighbor the moves all in a bid to tackle local kurdish militia which ankara considers terrorists who threaten border security. these are the latest pictures of the ground operation in syria turkish troops have seized control of the strategic point of mount shasta according to government media

and this video turkish soldiers are scenes together with pro turkey syrian fighters from the so-called free syrian army. the conflict which began in africa region has the potential to escalate further the turkish president says the operation will be extended to other kurdish held regions right up to the iraqi border washington on to the kurds in the area to help them find ice the whereas turkey which has been america's longstanding nato ally is now demanding the militia leave the region it seems both of washington's allies aren't as friendly as they have been in the past . we see that the u.s. doesn't support our friend with thing that's double standards america has no tools to present it directly with demand that the us or fills its promises and protects liberated areas including our friend and i mean any the weapons have been provided to the white p.g.a. by the united states the americans haven't kept their promise since man page lately

trump statement saying that they won't give any way to the white prejean anymore and created a crisis of trust. between care takes a look at how turkey and america have turned from friends to almost furrows. unbelievable is this real and nato member telling daddy you know i mean for me to come in behave yourself or all point a gun at you am i exaggerating a bit mr aired on didn't say that these exact words but turkey's got a prime minister who pretty much did anyone who gives logistical support to the white b.g. is turkey's target for the record the white b.g. equals the kurdish army and for all these years who's been giving the kurds all kinds of support right. the kurds were extended in all of branch that's what ankara calls its military op the but where does that wipe e.g.

get its guns somebody tapered on couldn't care less why washington's been helping the kurds to destroy eisel for this man the kurdish militias are no better than terrorists that explains his latest messages to america because the us is in the process of creating a terror army on our border so what we have to do is nip this terror army in the bud america do not encroach on our borders do not provoke us or we will run out of patience does anyone from the us government have anything to say we urge turkey to exercise restraint and ensure that its military operations remain limited in scope and duration and scrupulous to avoid civilian casualties some very restrained council there to be restrained think about it mr aired on rants that america u.s. officials don't hit back turkey rolls out the tanks flies out the more play sends soldiers over the border washington basically keep stop after all this isn't about

kim supply the squeak makes donald trump for one war so perhaps the turks and the kurds have succeeded in one thing together were juicing america to baffled silence . as anchors military operation in syria steadily expands so does the international condemnation the past twenty four hours of seen protests in a number of european cities throughout the week such antiwar rallies waved in a whole lot of trouble when in some places banned kurdish militia flags were brought it. thank god thank you thank. god. it was.

we've. witnessed by before turkey launched its assault on american military command announced its plans to create a border force involving kurdish militia a move which infuriated ankara the white house quickly backtracked saying no border force would be created but that wasn't enough to stop turkish tanks from entering syria political commentator adel darwish believes the situation risks spilling over into europe if washington doesn't make clear its policy in the region kurds would find themselves powerless against the might of turkey as we have seen in the unfortunates scenes from frankfurt and probably other places it could actually spill over and affect europe figure people who think they are far away it's very very hard actually to the american foreign policy at the moment first the americans

have to explain to their allies of our world what is the history of the and the policy on the stooge. do the world actually to have a peaceful settlement in syria and keep the political integrity of syria as a nation state as. the annual world economic forum took place in davos this week and the star attraction this year was donald trump who became only the second u.s. president to attend the summit his visit was unexpected america first policy seems to be at olds with the forum's creating a shared future tagline the u.s. made as a rival was met with a protest two thousand people marched through direct announcing both trying to form several smaller protests took place elsewhere in the country including geneva that didn't seem to put off the u.s. leadership though was our team starting from port. au prince to feel very flattered

that he has chosen this as a forum. for those that don't want to listen to him you can they can lead well probably to no one's surprise whatsoever trump speech did feature his signature phrase of america first and his speech is actually rounding out the end of the forum i believe in america i will always put. the first one the united states grows so does the world america is roaring that america is a cutting edge john and that's what we're doing in america and the results hold on mistaken america's future has never been brighter it will always put america first i believe in america so come to america where you can innovate create and build now that pretty much wraps up his whole speech which centered on progress

that's been made in the u.s. in the presence of the union since he came to the white house term speech was highly anticipated and according to reports lines were out the door hours before it even started and here at this economic forum trump in true businessman fashion used the opportunity to promote himself and his country. european leaders were also before him and just like trump their europe first ideas went against the grain of the some it's a globalist stance it isn't gentlemen my first miss each he said france is back france is back at the core of for europe because liverpool have any forensics is without a european success is between our twenty seven member states are not able to send a clear and united message to major powers such as china india and the united states if foreign policy is made on the national level then it will feel not. a number of central topics on this year's agenda down faster actually had little to

do with economics at all focusing instead on race privilege and harassment all of the big hitters of twenty seven c. but author and editor gerald for lent a thinks the shift in focus is simply a facade davos big to the zero point one percent of the people they have very little concern about or what the rest of the people are getting so it's one big club and it's to deal making club again all those other little things about you know gay rights equal pay all that's just a lot of nonsense and it's for the media to write about when they don't want to write about the hard facts of how the so few own so much and how so many own so little. on saturday a taliban suicide bomber killed one hundred three people and injured two hundred thirty five in the afghan capital kabul those are the latest figures provided.
