a long term effect on families eighty six per cent of women in jail report having experienced sexual violence in their lifetime these are rape survivors molestation survivors nearly half of all single black and hispanic women possess zero or negative net wealth and those make up the majority of women in prison and i'm slack and i think that the women are taller to was and it's all over the races that it's classes the entire system is absolutely racist in classes when you tell me that when you are the largest number of women are for misdemeanor crimes and they're mostly black latino or hispanic and then they're sitting there in this situation and getting put in jail for a ridiculous reason and i think every people got to pay attention to that number the women as the women are being put in jail of a higher rate than men right now and that's the number that needs to change and i think that's a number that needs to be investigated we're going to follow up even more on that in the future a little bit as we go to break court watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics and coverage of facebook and twitter and your poll shows that are coming up we welcome the one and only had souls in the darkness to discuss what

did didn't make it into the state of the union and will congress once again miss their their spending bill deadlines stay tuned for the whole. the currency market itself is still on track to eclipse the global banking bull adopt only which is what we need what we want and i've always said it's a bank starkiller that's the primary use of bitcoin. seen years ago i traveled across the united states exploring america's deadly love affair with the gun bad guy trying to. good to one of my family members he would
2:02 am
have better luck with that letter and i think it's fair and hurting whenever my my baby says my book was published in the year two thousand more than the whole of the million americans have been killed by the us going out is thought to me as we did this is a middle school we go through drills and we put ourselves in real scenarios it was interesting to see who actually got hit. on. the subject to track down each gun owner who i'd met and photographed those years ago i don't know that but we are not for all. those who knew him when you don't. see the teachers who are. quick to do. what they do not through space to. make.
2:03 am
love to the. said. club into no trouble to see that. alex you speak french. was all. the. way to newton and. so on was busy the place called. president drum state of the union may have been heavy on the picture perfect moments and memorable sound bites been in all the funder as applause and. so many things did happen to go on set and i notice trump was quick to throw out impressive manufacturing and jobs numbers to multiple standing ovations and his surrogates took to the airwaves almost instantly to chastise. the congressional black caucus
2:04 am
for not a load applauding his triumphant announcement of a decline in african-american unemployment but what is the economic reality underlying all the self-congratulatory pomp are we really had for a new economic golden age of our culture once again reigns supreme and crumbling factories of the rust belt will help us annihilate the trade deficit much like we will annihilate the illegal immigration problem president obama's promise to close guantanamo corporate tax rates for a sobering look at what we can and cannot count on and that gamut of threats and pronouncements we are joined today by none other than at her how are you at. all nice to see it was a pleasure as always i want to start we all watched the interview covered it brilliantly here on r t the state of the union but what in your opinion was left out you know it was a dirty little secret in all of this wonderful economy and it is really good you have to admit i mean into stock market you've got people's retirements you've got four hundred one k.'s you've got the education fund for young kids i mean families
2:05 am
are building in the stock market if they're in it now here's the bad news that the tax cut health care costs are going up and the president the only thing he talked about in the state of the union was the mandate what's the rest of the story because insurance rates are going to go up dramatically in two thousand and eighteen and now the republicans own it they've done one move on health care and it hasn't been a good one so are they going to let this sit by the roadside as road kill or are they going to pick up the mantle and do something about it and so this advantage of the tax cut that these middle class families are going to get that they're talking about that's going to get wiped out by the races in health care coverage if they decide to buy it and buy get into the market on it so that's what he didn't talk about the next phase of health care and what they're going to do for all these people that he said he was going to let die in the street on the campaign trail and there were some other things left out but i thought that that was the most glaring . i would agree because of that i think that's one of the you know health care we
2:06 am
all can say it was of course and it was going away oh it was you know they didn't get so far the one the one thing that i notice is this idea of manufacturing jobs and bringing them back and my home state of wisconsin is one of those that's been trying to get more manufacturing of some kind back into the state so the big part a core part of trump's economic message was that he's bringing all of these jobs back and revitalizing it but more and more what we're seeing are headlines pointing out that this manufacturing companies are actually looking ahead to automating their factory floors and that has to leave myself wondering for the people of wisconsin and for other states to see these are are the are two out of work americans really getting as sweet of a deal as trump is sounding them most interesting today the president talked about vocational training he talked about bricklayers you know which i found very interesting he wants to build a lot of stuff ok i got it and those are good paying jobs because those trades are
2:07 am
hard to find right now go try to hire a plumber for your home i mean there are these are now very valuable jobs at much more than what they used to be because people have gotten away from the trade so. the as far as a manufacturing is concerned steel aluminum rubber glass electronics you know there's going to be a certain level of automation that's going to seep into that but people still have to run them will still have to be highly trained i was just amazed at some of the things that i've heard in the steel industry about how the the how they have to make sure that they mix the steel properly per ton and what they're producing in the quality of it which is far better than what the chinese are putting out right now so america does have a great story to tell and those jobs are still going to be they're not as plentiful but they're still going to be there and most of the reduction in the industries that i've talked about has. because china and south korea they have done state
2:08 am
sponsored type of formula of an economy to compete against the free market in the united states in the w t o formula for going after those trade agreements has been too slow yeah and that was one of the things is that what china did not reason they got like the i phone was that they had spent years educating people in those trades or getting people to that point and the concern i think a lot of people have is will these days when you have companies like foxconn that are coming in are they going to get the best deal are states giving away too much in tax incentives just to get them here but then ultimately won't they have to because you said a lack of skills what they end up having to hire a lot of out of state people to cover those jobs are out of country you know you never go wrong by investing in education and i think that education in this country is going to see. a tremendous revolution over the next twenty years there's going
2:09 am
to be more home schooling that's going to be going on there's going to be more internet technology there's not going to be the big school centers we can't said kids in school anymore because they get shot every day i mean this is there is a game i don't want to send their kids is going to you know i really think there is going to be a real revolution in the way we teach our kids in this country but investing in education is something i don't think the country can ever get away from because there is going to be tremendous competition in one especially in trades yesterday and one of the things that the president is pushing now pretty hard is only give us your best. merit immigration. meritorious status to get into the country and i think that's that's going to be a big debate huge debate another interesting thing speaking of debates is next week february eighth is the next deadline for the for the petards they've got to get that spending bill passed by then and you know meanwhile the deadline to pass dhaka is also approached. and that's what marsh. do you think trump and congress are
2:10 am
going to actually reach some sort of grand bargain by the by next week with roberts that probably not and probably not and they're not going to get a deal done in seventeen days and that window is cut sharp now we're not very far from february eighth and then of course the big deadline on it is march fifth or they've got to do something by then but i think that it didn't wear very well with the american people certainly all of the republicans are going to vote for a continuing resolution will there be ten democrats probably will because they were politically injured it's going to be hard for them to come back with a positive narrative to the american people i think we've all got the message on docket the president certainly has it and he's thrown out a plan for pillars take it or leave it this is where we are it's a negotiating point i think it's and it's it would be good measure on the part of the democrats to go ahead and give the president a good solid chunk of the wall if you're going to get dhaka i mean it i might have these people of color are never going to forget the fact that the democrats never
2:11 am
gave up the fight why would you give that to the republicans and i think that schumer and palosi are way off on their narrative with the american people right now they are totally following everything from does they are way too focused on this memo talk instead of what muller just do what he does and stop trying to poison the well every time i talk about medicare medicaid social security you ask the question what they didn't talk about in the state of the union no talk of medicare medicaid social security this is huge to millions of americans they want to know if the next move by the republicans is going to be depravity to privatized all of those things that's a great thing to bring up because of the fact that you're talking about the entire generation of baby boomers is now facing that right now well. even future generations we're not saving in america nobody can those who can't can't and those who should be saving for the future aren't you know it's one of those things that kind of traps and both ways do you think that. that the democrats will ever started
2:12 am
get off this it is really instruction asked at this point they're not you know they were doing half of it to make ways to in positive things on one side and the other side was obstructing it makes sense but it seems they've just given up which are narrative to the country that's what i want to ask the democrats what's your narrative to the country and i think chuck schumer in new york and. in california ok the democrats are going to win those two states we're going to do with the other forty eight. in the middle of the country you know when the democrats were strong with dick gephardt was from missouri when tom daschle was from south dakota yeah ok when they had leadership from the middle of the country now the republicans who they have on their leadership team the food from south dakota right ok they connect with the middle of the country that's the way the map is it's going to be hard to break into that you better start talking to these folks about jobs you better the democrats better start talking to him about their future instead of keep pounding
2:13 am
on these red herrings about well the best thing we can do is hope for the russian investigation so we can impeach trump that's not a plan for america no it's not for a plan for the democratic party you know it's you know a very you know it's also interesting that the mention of at the top of the show but you know mr berndt gaza himself trey gowdy announced that he's walking away from the game which which was kind of shocking but it's also i've seen that happening now a lot more from people who are expecting like god you know all that thirty five members are slated to leave politics or potentially run for a different office is that a reflection of a rougher political climate these days in your opinion or do these people know something we don't well know they just you know it's like you know who wants to stay in a lousy job when you can go do something else you know all of these congressional members come in they get visibility they get a pretty good paycheck they can set themselves up for a better job later on now you mention trey gowdy gallies a very talented guy in fact in fact eyes. i think he's probably one of the best
2:14 am
legal minds in congress and the republicans refer to him a lot from the house and the senate and i think he's an honest broker i do and he's got judiciary experience in the past working at the justice area i think he's going to go back to that he had an awful lot to it i think he's one of the very few in congress that hasn't been given partisan comments about all of these investigations he's very focused on the facts i think it's unfortunate that he's leaving and i know he went after benghazi but maybe he didn't go after benghazi enough because look at all these e-mails look at look at what the f.b.i. was doing with the e-mail investigation and all of the discrepancies that are there so the point made today by the speaker was that this is what congress does it takes them time to get to the root of the peg of the whole deal but eventually they're going to get there and normally these investigations take well beyond a year year and a half sometimes two years we held after the nine so what's going to i know we're
2:15 am
a long way from november but it is going to be the economy if if there's a different market and then it comes back the republicans are going to say see it's those tax cuts that really work for you but the democrats are going to have to get a narrative on health care and protecting the big three wells that we had always a pleasure to have to be with us. it has widely believed that human beings migrated from the african continent between about one hundred thirty thousand and one hundred fifteen thousand years ago but a new discovery of ancient three hundred eighty five thousand year old stone tools in india has made anthropologists rethink the entire timeline of the development of technology and the sharma center for heritage education in india has spent the last two decades collecting and analyzing seventy two hundred various stone tools found along the creek in southern india and say that on southern indian state of tom would not do what they. discovered was that these sophisticated tools card from
2:16 am
quartz indicated that modern humans were in india thousands of years before we thought they were and while it doesn't change the theory behind me out of africa hypothesis it does mean that our human ancestors in india were far more advanced a lot earlier than we thought the fact of fossils and bones are rarely found in india near the sites makes proving the theory difficult but it does mean that india has a story just under the surface about our history and the history of humankind just waiting to be discovered all right that is our show for today remember everyone in this world without soul beloved enough sort so while i love you i am i robot and on top of the lala keep watching those hawks not a great thing and. a mom actually. this little bundle of joy he would have no chance of surviving in the wild mother this can only with one couple to time but usually give birth to two.
2:17 am
every year china puts a lot of effort into making up for this cruel mistake of nature. it was you honey. china's penda breeding has become something of a production line. it's almost as though they've been copied three d. printed and put on shows for the public and. several cubs are born here each year. but only less work by dedicated scientists will be for nothing if pendant of can't be encouraged in captivity it's not as though they don't practice a tool but in the same lazy way they do everything else this proud not negate this to twins and has no idea that a special love potion was formulated just for the. what
2:18 am
politicians do something that. they put themselves on the lawn. they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want to be rescued. that's it like to be for us this is what the forecast for you in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the wilds of my. first sip. here's what people have been saying about redacted in the vicinity of the law. the only show i go out of my way to do you know what it is that really packs the. yampa is the john oliver of harvey americans do the same. apparently better than. i see people you've never heard of love back to the night president of the world bank hey i'm going to. send us an email.

the sports world's highest court watchers the lifetime olympic bans handed down to over two dozen russian athletes accused of doping violations. the bi partisan divide deepens in washington with the white house expected to release a classified congressional memo on friday dr mccoy allegedly did. surveillance abuses by the f.b.i. including that it spied on trump's election team. possibly german intelligence warns that the children the fighters could be recruited to carry out terror attacks in the country describing them as living time bombs.
2:21 am
for broadcasting live direct from our studios in moscow this is art international john thomas glad to have you with us now the court of arbitration for sports has overturned the life time olympic bans of twenty eight russian athletes accused of doping and upheld their results at the sochi winter games in two thousand and fourteen you go to is done off the starforce. this ruling has to be the olympic equivalent of having your exit cancelled at the last minute twenty eight it's previously banned for life from the games and i'll fully cleared of all doping allegations sanctions against them dropped nine hard won medals in sochi are set to return to their rightful owners named and shamed they refused all along to accept the punishment for being guilty by association you're done with it's such a relief for us because we're really are innocent the public is now where that many
2:22 am
people believe that we don't but our close ones of course knew it wasn't true i'm really disappointed with the olympic movement it's a complete mess. there's a lot of uncertainty the bans were justified in some cases in others not i'm happy that the athletes in my sport. have been partially acquitted and i'm sure we'll be promoting our movement further. legal mechanisms exist and we hope we'll still have the time to fight for our rights if not at cas then in a civil court switzerland has a long history of considering cases if there are agents have always sat the truth and justice always prevail in the end yet the verdict came with a catch. this does not mean that these twenty. innocents but. due to insufficient evidence held the sanctions. their individual results
2:23 am
achieved in such reinstated so hold on a second you yourself proclaimed there's no proof to convict these athletes what part of innocent until proven guilty in my not getting here this short remark is the latest twist in what's been a nerve racking roller coaster of a doping scandal for russia's athletes the international olympic committee initially slapped the russian team with a blanket ban following a report accusing the country of a state sponsored doping program the court of appeals heard both from the author of the report and its key witness though and didn't find their testimony convincing enough these two men who were involved in exposing all of this mess basically gave us enough evidence to say listen mcclaren water you see we don't believe you guys the tribunals conclusion has poked a sizable hole in the reasoning behind the i.o.c. his decision to bar russia from the olympics but the not guilty verdict does not
2:24 am
guarantee a ticket to south korea later this month it's still the i.o.c. that gets the last say in who does go and who does not since the russian olympic committee is suspended russian athletes can participate in pyongyang only on invitation by the i.o.c. . the result of the cast decision does not mean that at least from the group of twenty eight will be invited to the games so for now even without an invitation to south korea the twenty eight russian athletes have potentially paved the way for other clean athletes to achieve justice but even with this battle won the war is far from over we discussed the issue with a number of lawyers and following the case they told us that they welcome the decision. but this is a victory for common sense and the fundamental principles of the olympics over political whims we've always stuck to the principles journey i.o.c.
2:25 am
inquiry and with cas as well the olympic charter is based on them that's what appeared to qubaty in leftist when he created the olympic movement of first of all it's a great victory for those twenty cleats fart over a year to claim their innocence and. this isn't confirmed that they have not committed any wrongdoing and the i.o.c. had wrongly sanctioned them for something they had not done theoretically. could challenge those decision the grounds on which you can silence the decisions before this resupply in court are very limited and i don't see how they could be successful. you can see the reaction of one russian cross-country skier after hearing that the verdict natalia very year who was one of the twenty eight athletes cleared of dobbing was obviously as you can see overjoyed by the court's decision.
2:26 am
the release of classified u.s. congressional memo allegedly detailing abuses of surveillance powers by the f.b.i. is expected to be approved by president trump on friday the possible move has already led to a major backlash from both the agency and the democratic party are to secure market has more. well a specter of anticipation is hanging over washington d.c. as everyone is anticipating the release of the memo now at this point we've already heard from many republicans who say they've seen the memo and that the content is shocking they're calling it worse than the watergate scandal now essentially the memo is purported and expected to show great abuses by the f.b.i. that essentially that they have the f.b.i. and the u.s. department of justice were abusing the foreign intelligence surveillance act in order to spy on donald trump that is what is being alleged now we've already got a recording of donald trump on a hot mike saying that the memo will be released just released. right now one
2:27 am
hundred percent. of. the f.b.i. is saying in complaining essential that they didn't have enough time to review the memo out before it's pending release and we've also heard from adam schiff a top democrat who is saying that changes to the memo have been made without prior approval and it's called on the white house essentially not to release it he's saying it's not ready to be released there have been changes that have been made to it that we've also heard from devon newness spokesperson devon's known as the chair of the committee and he said that some of those changes actually came at the request of the democrats it was minor edits some grammatical fixes as well as two edits done at the request of the f.b.i. now this medal is set to to really kind of challenge and kind of throw away some of the credibility of the f.b.i. as well as the entire russia investigation in response to this we've heard a number of democratic leaders say that the calls to release the memo are somehow
2:28 am
a plot by the kremlin that as the hash tag released the memo went up on social media top democrats sending a letter to social media basically saying that they wanted them to investigate whether or not russian bots were. behind the release but it's gone further than that at this point we've now heard allegations that perhaps the forces responsible and the chairman of the committee could actually himself be a russian agent. is it possible that the republican share of the house intel committee has been compromised by the russians there's a possibility i tried all the russian agents running the house intel committee on the republican side i hope that's not the case i mean this is behavior speak about tell me i'm not the first person who's raised this he's behaving like someone who has been compromised by.
2:29 am
investigators reportedly are interested in stein's advocacy for better relations with russia any vote for stein is a vote that otherwise would have gone to hillary. donna brazil would seemingly buy into full fuel propaganda spread by both the prussians and her opponent candidates. if those objections the senator from kentucky on the floor say before i read this if there's objection you are achieving the objectives of the adamant. well earl rasmussen executive director at the eurasian center in washington d.c. believes that the memo's release will throw the entire russia related probe into doubt. you know he's frustrated with the russia gate. investigation of which after
2:30 am
a year and a half we have no evidence whatsoever and now what we've got is actually evident could a backlash on the democrats absolutely i think that's the primary that's the fundamental reason why they do not one to release it really puts in the question this entire investigation it shows at least indications that could be further investigated but from the initial appearance severe bias with senior levels of our law enforcement agencies i think what he's concerned about here is i personally don't think anything in the memos probably is that embarrassing yes is that against will it threaten national security i don't think so so the classification is probably more because it's sensitive information and the president has the authority to release that. germany's domestic into.
