something to vote for right when the only thing you give people is something to vote against like what do you stand for well we're not that other guy i wouldn't do that in comedy like no other job would people do that i would be like hey i'm a comedian oh what's your comedy like maybe i want to come see you what do you like carrot top i'm not a big carrot top fan was not carrot top i'm totally not carrot top and that was just a first meeting that popped into my head no i didn't that's not going to go no one else does that any other job you say what you're for exactly. jump in there i mean but this hatred of trump by the democrats it seems to me that it is bouncing the rubble i mean people have already decided one way or another by like the president or they don't they have had for a long time ok i don't this the democrats constantly going after his personality which i don't like sometimes ok but it's i'm interested in policy policy not personal attacks and that's all the democrats have in their arsenal go ahead lionel . i want to give them some advice and be because i'm

i'm neither i'm a political and political atheist and i i think it's just a joke but if i had to advise them pick three things very simple concepts i don't care what they are just pick something and if you don't believe in it why just tell people three simple things i want to make america safer i want to return jobs and health care i don't care more protein in your diet just say something because what have we heard so far up till now we have heard every single day that hillary clinton through what happened or is desi arnaz was a while how she wrote a book basically is blaming now russians and bernie to an extent and we have spent with the complicity of and aided and abetted by this ted baxter sought me why don't they let me go i don't let me jump in here i have i have to go to a hard break and after that hard break we'll continue our discussion on the democrat state with.

fifty years ago pregnant women to come together as a sleeping pill and dusty's with the name because our test doesn't just on the side effects were terrible but not on. this show induction trouble will be here not. to come up across europe as a stone thing legal battles demanding at least some compensation in something two ways first will the physical times itself as well as the constant mind that the people who actually perpetrated this crime has never been able to justice and there's been a couple. of quite the many flips over the. yes so i know the gaming sorry guys. football isn't

only about what happens on the pitch pull the funnel school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super manager killian erroneous and spending two hundred twenty million on one player. so it's an experience like nothing else on to because i want to share what i think of what i know about the beautiful guy a great one more chance for. the base this minute. the new global economic war is unfolding in the realm of education the right to education being supplanted by the right to access education. education is becoming just another product that can be fortune sold but it's not just about education anymore it's also about running a business where you know models of the regime look good the songs. they could

ever. want is the place of students in this business model before college i was born now and i'm extremely bored education the new global economic war. welcome back to crossfire we're all things are considered i'm peter lavelle to remind you we're discussing the democrats. ok tim since i work in media and i have to cover what the media covers let's talk about russia russia russia i mean how does that move forward the mainstream democratic party i mean that's all you hear about it and this embassy is hard to watch for me it's on watchable now because that's all you hear about and i'm not interested in that because no one has showed me any evidence whatsoever ok if

there's evidence then let's talk about what it means but we don't have any evidence how does this rush a conspiracy story that the media are just so captivated with how does that move the democratic party forward after eight years of losing seats in huge numbers over the last ten years go ahead tim in miami. again i think the russian narrative if there is some evidence there it would be best if congress had televised hearings in the american circle could learn what actually happened but i think the whole the whole russia conspiracy narrative puts things very out of proportion ninety million americans didn't vote in the last presidential election those are the voters that democrats have to be trying to reengage and get them into the political process and the russian narrative just is not going to do that i think it's a failing strategy first of all when you take a look at what does the media concentrate on find they're concentrating

a lot on the narrative what are they missing what are they not reporting on i can tell you just here in south florida we had we wanted to verify the votes in our last election when i ran against debbie wasserman schultz in two thousand and sixteen and we had to sue the supervisor of elections of broward county while the lawsuit was pending they destroyed all of the ballots in our election and the media you know not a peep not a word about it so the media itself here has a lot of corporate priorities and it's to really and him a lot of these establishment democrats and that's what makes it very frustrating and difficult i know your story why did they the steroid those ballots. they haven't given much of an adequate explanation and they destroyed those ballots in violation of federal law and they certified when they destroyed the ballots they certified that the ballots were not the subject of the pending lawsuit and indeed they were i had sued the supervisor of elections to try to see these ballots so the whole idea that you need paper ballots to verify the vote they just ignore that

they ignored federal law we're waiting to see what the consequences are we're demanding a federal investigation calling on the governor to remove the supervisor of elections and meanwhile the democratic party establishment all throughout florida has been just amazingly quiet yeah you think that they would be concerned when ballots in a democratic primary are destroyed ok well i'm going to run i suppose it was some russian bob that ordered the destruction of those ballots to me given the media environment we live in that's a logical assumption to make go ahead ron. well you know i had no idea that thirteen twitter were so effective and ever since i learned that i have been on craigslist trying to hire a handful of folks to get me a netflix special and i figured if they can throw an election certainly they can help me out but but no i mean. i'm glad that what tim's been gone through has gotten brought up because sadly that's not really unique story within the

democratic establishment thames not the only person going through this kind of stuff you mention nancy pelosi her her opponent steven jaffe kind of guy mishandled by the establishment he's going through something similar not not ballot destruction but a similar corrupt for instance the nurses association when they tried to give single payer to the state of california. and found a way to hijack them this is sadly a very very common story and it's usually aimed at progressive so getting back to the top. kind of making a full circle here by hyper amplifying the russian narrative twenty four seven which is barely an embellishment of what the corporate media is doing by the way i mean there's been a harvard studies done on this stuff they talk about at a minimum about seventy five percent of the time and most of the public is totally sick of hearing about it it avoids them from talking about what's really going on

in the system and what's going on is that the system is rigged to the donor class we have one party and it's the money party and it's kind of beyond repair at this point you know lionel it's interesting we look at kim's experience there and what we're wrong just said there it is seems that. the forces that threaten democracy are internal and it seems if we go from bernie sanders to tim's case here you know it's systemic ok in this is that this is what's really dangerous here i mean you know i've looked i've followed run for a while now and i watch as podcasts and all that you know and it's really refreshing to hear you know kind of a nuts and bolts you know straight shooting progress i mean and i'm conservative but i i can listen to that there's a dialogue and i can have a dialogue but in the media i never see that kind of dialogue and i never see democrats in dialogue ever i mean change the subject pivot here pivot there never

get a straight answer for them go ahead lionel if you can't beat get the wasserman schultz if this. can't beat debbie wassermann schultz. if this if my native state of florida if you even have to say anything if you don't say how i know i'm not debbie rowe's have a new pressure on you even those pressure on you to get. out of that desert but at florida i had over three design may i interrupt. her where were they why are you on her history of. we rant on yourself and i man last time around go one more time tim go ahead yeah well nobody even knew who i was i said we ran ourselves we ran a great campaign last time nobody even knew who i was when i jumped into the race

we ran for less than eight months three ninety days before the election we were down sixty points in the polls and we almost took her at the finish line and who knows what the actual outcome was in light of the destruction of all these ballots we're not sure that's a close primary at the end of august we're only all registered democrats can vote. yeah what not much of anything and you know what i do think her days are very much numbered i think we're well i i suppose gentlemen i don't think they get i think debbie can say i'm the most investigated congress person in the current congress i mean i think that might be true ok i mean i mean there's a special jail cell for her definitely really you know i'll send her over and she did. did everybody really hate her but i got to say i've got to say this goes way beyond the problems go ahead go ahead to the problems go way beyond debbie wassermann schultz and the problems go way beyond debbie wassermann schultz you

know the system itself has so many problems just take a look at the present debates about the mass shootings at the schools you know most members of the house of representatives are in safe districts because a journeyman during their either safe democrat or a safe republican so it allows them to sing to the choir to their base without any real discussion between the parties you decried the fact that there's not real debate there's not real discussion to arrive at solutions anymore well you know a republican can say the problem is all mental health and the democrats can say it's only guns whereas the problem really is a bit of both and both need to be addressed and you take a look at what cap. the hill is doing they don't hold legislative hearings on these or other issues because they're too busy spending thirty hours a week dialing for dollars calling up their donors and trying to raise money to run their campaigns this is not a legislative branch that legislates in any meaningful way anymore and it certainly

is not representing the people of this country ok ron you know i'm talking to tim before the program you know he said he may be considering running as an independent you don't run over what isn't it really time for progressives to reach out to independents i mean why don't you just give up on the democrats i mean it's just a swamp you know a wide white why don't you guys make that big move because it's i think the country needs it ninety million people didn't vote i wonder why ok and that's right that's a rhetorical question why does that happen ron. i mean i'm with you in the same in the same question really i mean i was at the convergence conference where we presented bernie sanders with the signatures to start a new party. i wish he would have done it but you know you run into questions of ballot access and stuff like that and just the whole restructuring of a party so i understand there's some complications and or stand how some people are

choosing to mentor as opposed to demick said however you have to look at all of the kind of roadblocks in our path everything from you know gerrymandering to superdelegates except or etc and you kind of think there's a lot of us there's a lot of us that kind of want the same things that kind of have some very big principles in common and if we all kind of somehow could mobilize we would be a real great political force to be reckoned with and you know hijacking the democratic party is a very long road it's not impossible starting a new viable party also a long road but not impossible you know as an individual or about just policies and movements myself i don't care what was i think of your name but rather for the policies i'm for and you got the right principles but i'll give you a vote you know but i think that's a little while i think you know runs on to something because they well maybe it's you know by accident i think that all of us here in just a little far more interested in policy than personalities weigh in on that line and

go ahead. i'm listening to this with all due respect this is the most incisive big i make signing message there's too much money in or came in the last but do you know how trump won he beat everyone he came out like a bull in that she was he had a massive rally and like that i am agreeing with you lionel he had a message you had of him as saying had said i like eight he had personality and he didn't think that that did he had a message that had a message a dread a message that the answers to those rare people had the system was rigged but you can't lie you know i agree with you in many ways but you can't you can't govern that way that's the problem what i'm getting at here ok you can you can get elected that way but it's difficult yes ok well we'll do that the other kid in the jury's still out on that. well you know what he's

a woman and she's not so he did something right but let me tell you something arias has lied i got into this i got a job here i have run out of time fascinating his guys are going to take on anything so my guy gets in new york miami and in los angeles and thanks to our viewers for watching us here at r.t.c. you next time and remember crosstalk rules. in some american cities the police have built themselves cling to reputation people who walk on the street to the united states who are at risk from the very people who are supposed to protect that poor people are no more afraid of police than of us from the most. you can see something happening and this is like i don't want to call the cops let that happen resident call the cops in the those

the headlines and. the media. snobs. who say that. the video of the moments leading up to the. israeli raid in the west the i.d.f. . soldiers killed him. just days away.

while watching aussie international a pleasure to have you with us. state of the nation address the media frenzy accusing russia of cold war era posturing during the speech the president showcased the country's new strategic weapons which he said could all existing missile defenses. the white house and the country learning of that new threat from russian president warning adverse reason and in the west in particular not to mess with russia a computer graphics of missiles flying over mountains and heading over oceans and he says he's not bluffing though many sold the address as a threat directed at the united states moscow claims it has no intention of using

its military might the high tech weaponry is intended only to preserve the global balance of power as much as the reports. if you aren't russian the first hour of putin's speech would have been boring taxes and corruption and science and industry that sort of thing after that though it got real hot real fast and i mean. russia is a major nuclear power basically nobody wanted to talk to us nobody listened to us listen to us now rockets lasers nukes in a rush hooted unveiled in us and all of new weapons bigger faster stronger and deadlier than any that came before i am. the some super heavy i.c.b.m. two hundred ton missile capable of penetrating any existing defense in service at

the end of the year next an enigmatic new development seemingly nuclear powered cruise missile it flies extremely low to avoid detection and can hit almost anywhere in the world says putin up next it's just fantastic an underwater drone submarine also nuclear powered with a nuclear payload it can reportedly underwater for months and months silent and needy undetectable next to the oven god the hypersonic missile extremely fost rockets that can actively dog and a vaid anti missile defenses. that is heading for the target like a meteorite to top all of that off laser weapons systems though putin didn't go into detail saying only that it still classified the russian president says all of

this isn't to intimidate or scare anyone or invade anyone these a serious way. buttons designed for one thing restore and guarantee russia's strategic power in an age where an ever expanding nato is trying to nullify it. we have no plans and have never had plans to use this potential to achieve offensive or aggressive in russia's in hands military power is simply a guarantee for peace on our planet for it preserve. restore parity in the world sure that there's no point in gauging in a senseless arms race after all mutually assured destruction has kept the world safe for the best part of a century not everyone though buys president putin's explanation of the thinking behind his speech he was pressed about it in an interview with n.b.c.

several analysts in the west have said this is the declaration of a new cold war are we in a new arms race right now my point of view is the individuals who have said that a new cold war has started are not really analysts they do propaganda if you were to speak about arms race then an arms race began at exactly the time in moment when the u.s. opted out of the anti-ballistic missile treaty to stress his point of the new weapons only to balance the world powers putin pointed out that u.s. missile defense is already deployed in alaska and california following nato expansion into the east two sites have also been set up in romania and poland and now new sites soon to be established in japan and south korea and apart from ground launched weapons the us complex also includes a naval component meaning that america currently has five navy cruisers and thirteen destroyer ships stationed right along russia's eastern borders.

we spoke to several defense analysts who think the russian president's speech was not intended as a threat. it was defense the parents competition and containment no aggression no thoughts of starting off initiating a war which is reassuring the defense versus the oftens technology and technology has probably reached a new phase with bookies speed and the americans even though they have known at least in general terms that these weapon systems are in the pipeline will probably react with some surprise at the advanced stage in which they were unveiled these are not designed for war fighting these are designed to send a very clear message that president putin said quite clearly which is that these

these systems are basically saying if you mess with us we will nuke you and we will not hold back now that is a strategic statement it's not a statement about escalating to deescalating which is what the russians are often accused of and were accused of officially by the american government in the nuclear posture review which is indeed a dangerous. doctrine but it's not a real doctrine that the russians have ever endorsed the u.s. state department has hit out at russia for developing what it calls destabilizing weapons saying they violate existing treaties however the russian ambassador to the u.s. retorted that washington apparently doesn't know what it's talking about the tensions that also run a high of the u.s. state department briefing us samir khan now reports how they're now it was particularly concerned about the video or imagery that was released claiming that it showed the missile targeting the u.s. and when reporters asked about this the scene turned pretty ugly and now revealed just how uncomfortable she was when she slammed the russian reporters pressed her

on this says officials of the russian government is more slaughter taken in the united states interests in the styles are sent to different directions so i had to say that they are you know you react on russian i can't even hear you ok ok enough said then i'll move on. which is when you get there to happen they're not. officials of the russian government they're just asking a question about romeo really ok well we know that. r.t. and other russian news or so-called news organizations are there i'm good and directed by the russian government so if i don't have a lot of how this should be no matter how they're going he says you will think about momentum this is how you did you know this video that you're talking about yesterday which the key is not an excuse me through and it was met with significant backlash from reporters all throughout the room but how did she respond with

several doses of sarcasm of course but for the record this is her usual m.o. when she wants to avoid answering questions in the past she's referred to me and my colleagues as representatives of the russian government and then i made a berridge of questions now or shut down the entire press conference and then rejected a reporter's question which rightfully upset the reporter who then stood up from her chair and followed an hour out of the room we've got it we've got to go we close on iraq for these i will talk to you after the no the iraqi parliament voted wednesday to call for a timetable for the iraq for foreign troops. now it's unclear what exactly agitated now are but it could have been the continuous stream of questions regarding of the american reaction to president putin's address but journalists in the room were all defending each other so i wonder if we'll hear any complaints from the other reporters. a video has a showing the moments leading up to a palestinian man's death during an israeli raid in the west bank i should warn you

you may find the following scenes disturbing. could be seen running down an alley wielding an object of some kind he was then shot by an israeli soldier the soldier and his colleagues proceed to kick him on the ground then drag him along and. died later the israeli army has changed its version of what happened several times the i.d.f. said he attacked the soldiers with a knife and received at the scene but then they said he had attacked them with an iron and was quickly taken to hospital according to the i.d.f. latest statement on the incident. tear gas inhalation and the soldier who. was interviewed by i.d.f. investigators in his statement he said he thought his life was in danger when we spoke to a member of the revolutionary council who says the idea don't consider palestinians as he.
