their determination to stop the art galleries and all the amenities that the real estate agents then use to promote their expensive luxury eight thousand dollars a month apartments in this new complex would make up the crunch. what about cheerios. the cereal cafe in other words in the east end of london one of the signs of relief terminal gentrification was the parents of the cereal cafe so hipsters are paying five six bucks or pounds for a little bowl of captain crunch cereal to you know have the feelings that they had as children to feel good again and so that if you see a cereal cafe show up in any of these neighborhoods you know that that is a sure sign on the road to hell well perhaps in london but i think americans are kind of beyond that because we grew up with that this is you know
2:01 pm
toast and expensive coffee but here in boyle heights remember they were kind of shut off from the grid of los angeles behind i think it's the one to one freeway so they're on the other side of the freeway from downtown los angeles but now that downtown los angeles is now saturated with really expensive restaurants and hipster cafes and art galleries and all that stuff they're building a bridge a pedestrian sort of bridge over the river to boyle heights which is only going to increase the gentrification and basically make it a more hipster sort of look at all to first leading story about you know this kind of pushback against the wages of hips tourism they have turned ugly so we'll see exactly if they can succeed history would say that they would not exactly ok so stay tuned for the second a lot more coming your way. twenty

team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers of all but there was one more question. who's going to be. coach. guys i know you are nervous he's a huge star and the huge amount of pressure to come out you have to be i mean eighty percent of the problem here with you and you will solo a great game. you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get the ball going let's go. a low. and i'm really happy to join the fall of two thousand and three in the world cup in russia meet the special one come on don't appreciate me to just say the radio theology team's latest edition to make up
2:03 pm
a bigger. look at. the far right in britain isn't just on the march it's taking violent my daughter's action i don't like need to pay to clean up the dog and i see these organizations which i'm usually split into which we form which take different names how do you view the. complex web of british fashion. plate for many flips over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't
2:04 pm
only about what happens on the pitch to the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super money kill the narrowness and spending shouldn't twenty million one player. it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful game but great so one more chance with. a nice minute. how does it feel to be a sheriff the greatest job in the world it's as close to being a king is any job there is one business model helps to run a prison now we just do it on my guess is no b.t.o. visitation i don't know one comes anymore we don't have to sarge them anymore is cost effective that's what they want to do that loan they don't give a damn if you did so as a matter there are actually paying us to put it back into the louisiana
2:05 pm
incarceration rate is twice as high as the us sandbridge what secret is behind such success. welcome back to the kaiser report i-max guys are time now to return to our conversation jamison a lot of costs are casa hoddle you do the work there all right jamison welcome back thanks all right let's continue down the path for the rabbit hole that is because i am and the cryptocurrency market and you know there's an interesting dichotomy here in this whole space you've got the open source developers to actually work for free in a free open source software movement. going back to the cypherpunks and the whole history of open source and then you have this image of crypto as being a lambo a drive a twenty something this get rich quick scheme and then how do you reconcile these
2:06 pm
two or what the market work this all out yeah i mean i don't think reconciliation is necessary there's a very diverse range of different people who are in this market and are interested in crypto and. they're contributing to it in different ways and so you do have some of those outrageous investors that are flaunting their wealth but i find that a lot of the really early adopters and developers are actually quite the opposite and you rarely hear of them and they rarely talk about how wealthy they truly are right let's return again to another topic we talked about a plone x. acquisition by circle circle back by goldman sachs are talking about exchanges and potential vulnerability there if you have big banks kind of buying into those are controlling the big exchanges the pushback against that of course would be decentralized exchanges and this is they talk a little bit about that one of the couple the names and the decentralized exchange
2:07 pm
space so one of the first ones that came out i think over a year ago was originally called bit square and it's now this q but this space is actually developed so quickly i think there's there's dozens if not one hundred of different decent realized. change projects another big one is a zero x. project i believe on a theory i'm but you know i've got a link to all of these of course on my website as i tend to do and this is an interesting development because i think will allow us to get away from these choke points and i'm not really much of a traitor myself i did start doing a bit of trading last year and i found that as soon as i started trying to bridge back into field and into the banking system i started having a lot of problems at some point hyper because as ation. term coined by daniel. pearl it's. so everything is big call and big going in big going out that means price a big client heading to a big claim world is this think it will get there is interesting especially with
2:08 pm
this development of lightning network second layer stuff a decent sized exchanges i actually think that even if daniel is incorrect on the fact that big queen will be the one and only block chain you could actually reinterpret that as all of these crypto assets essentially become bitcoin as it becomes seamless to transfer between one crypto asset and another just a click of a button then it doesn't really matter so much whether you're using assyria more like corner because when on the backend it's just crypto so it's hyper crypto is ation. let's return to something imaginative and our previous conversation talking about big call and imagine the talks of possibly fifty forks you know over time at the forks of the scale and the contentiousness of it all now that sounds crazy. what do you see fifty four. talk
2:09 pm
a little bit about this it's the me two effect and in fact it's not the first time we've seen this in because when i think back in two thousand and twelve two thousand and thirteen we started seeing an explosion and a lot of that was due to the fact that software was developed to make it very easy to create koreans and so all of a sudden everyone who has just a little bit of technical expertise and and some marketing savvy can create their own i think you know a fair amount about that yourself area and others there is a site there you can just go to the site and plug in the specs and create an alter boy in five minutes yeah and so it's the same thing now with these old coin airdrops or between blocking forks however you want to call it is that the first few of them were very difficult to do you had to have a developer that could really get into the code create you know their own new protocol changes but now you just go to i think fork in dot io and you know fill out a form and you've got your own fork and. what's the most quantum computer resistant coin in the marketplace today we all know it's max going jamieson i don't know why
2:10 pm
and i spend more time developing while it's dramatic sky and jesus let's get back to the topic here so. speaking of manias twenty seventeen we saw the i.c.a.o. hysteria i see that steven seagal i.c.a.o. bit coin a spell too i want to know how to pronounce that. really because. he had to put in a certain you know what does he fight with nick some not as you know i'd like you know thank you. he got a cease and desist order you warned against you know you were kind of raising the red flag there. do you think this i.c.a.o. trend were over is it worth it going it's weird i mean i think one of the reasons why there was so much hype is because the markets had been inflated a lot last year you had a lot of crypto wealthy people who are now saying hey where can i. my crypto and you know keep it inside of the crypto economy but also trying to find the next big
2:11 pm
thing and so as a result there is a lot of demand for investing in a highly risky projects with the hope of you know ten x. hundred x. thousand x. return and now i think we've already seen that about half of those i.c.'s have already shuttered and failed and probably going to see the vast majority of them fail just as the vast majority of startups fail right and so if you're somebody out there and here are crazy enough i mean interested in looking at some of these what are some of the metrics that you look at is there any way to value evaluate these it is it's tough i mean i tell people that it's really like angel investing and so sure there has to be a decent idea but if you really want to do your due diligence you have to look at the team you have to say can this team execute this idea and are they trustworthy enough that you know they're going to be around and put in the effort to execute it right and a lot of times if you do any diligence at all events he quickly run into all kinds of red flags that there's nobody does that the lights are on but nobody's home type
2:12 pm
of thing or as a sovereign trip to currencies you've got venezuela turkey. iran. you know the countries are starting to look at this as a way to solve some of their issues where what's that trend all about where as i go and do things. well the main reason that i find it interesting is from a standpoint that you know at least some of the countries that are doing this are under economic sanctions by the united states so this may be a new type of play you know to to try to skirt various economic sanctions whether or not it's going to be successful i'm very skeptical i don't know why anyone outside of those countries would want to invest in them given their history right overall not not a real positive kind of take on those go back now back to the drama kind of missed the drama of twenty seventeen now that the summer of twenty seventeen that they you
2:13 pm
know it was really an intense time i think as it actually it claims face to someone existential crisis that is that fair i mean it was really touching go there for a second you know we've got a couple of minutes this is very dramatic stuff take us back to that moment what was the triumph l. to mentally that happened i mean it was really the culmination of years of frustration and contentiousness and there was a lot of games theory that was being experimented with with you know the two x. versus user activated soft fork which eventually created you know the big cash for as well and so we had all of these things parts of the system moving and we all knew that we were heading towards some major event we didn't know if it was going to be cataclysmic or great you know rejoicing and celebration the community was really into the city had the emergence of some interesting media you could calm media crypto personalities there was
2:14 pm
a world crypto network which i watch all the time on you and the tone is and the vortex and jimmy song and these people really kind of us did distinguish themselves as being the voice and yourself kind of the voice of this. beard of what the and this because it's all about and then he had a real kind of antagonist emerge it with big cash and roger and on a on the and even john mcafee to an extent emerged as something of the antagonist in this drama and did did those guys ever prove anything with because in cash well i mean they proved something very important which most of us already knew which is that anyone can fork off at any time without asking for permission and it's actually kind of weird that it took them so long to do that you know to finally realize that they weren't going to be able to convince or or coerce the
2:15 pm
rest of the system to go along with what they wanted instead they had to do the voluntary thing which is to leave and convince as many people as they could to join them and how is that project doing now. it exists there mining it transactions are going through but you know from any number of different metrics it's it's another all coins i mean i think the you know light coin and those coin are doing better in terms of like transactional volume and fees and you know if people like to call in cash than they should use it. ok. we had a minute or so just want to dig down a little bit into your new project so it's called. and. just tell us of so it's one you've got multiple hardware different hardwares so like for example when the window vaastu and said that their security protocol was applied to break up the private keys and put them in a safe deposit boxes in different banks around the country ok that's the kind of
2:16 pm
the approach is that you're you're you're going to have multiple hardware while so i have two or three phones i pads or whatever and these are now going to be contributing to a multiple hardware security platform to give me the true ability to be outside of the banking system be my own bank what the high screen of security right so we're approaching this from a standpoint of saying you know we believe that you should consider your threats vectors to be everything from. a common thief who might break into your house to a sophisticated attacker who knows a lot about you and wants to take you hostage to a nation state attacker who could even have the ability to go into banks and coerce employees at banks to open up a safety deposit boxes what is a five dollar ranch attack that is an attack where you are vulnerable
2:17 pm
because you have enough private key material on your person that someone can just physically hurt you with a wrestling match. with anything you know until you get mugged right asika it anyway thanks for calling. love being here writing well that's going to do it for this edition of the kaiser report with me max kaiser today's ever like to thank our guest jamison lott now at casa. for some reason they're saying console hoddle because someone else has caused some squatter and if you want to reach jameson lop on twitter it's lop it's a treasure trove of information probably the best on the web to reach us on twitter sky's report until i stop by yo.
2:18 pm
well you know the fires they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long. i've been there in the small boats next to the hard pool of ships and it's still very. much up in. the limo self to be told fish already ninety percent of the dot and wall in the collar. cons fifteen scoops seventy five tons true and they do it several times a day with the big fleets oh you get an idea on why. we have to understand we can not stay still and just. be witness of the deal before you go out. i'm doing this because i want the future
2:19 pm
world to the future can generations to have and enjoy the ocean we have. so far right than britain isn't just on the march it's taking violent month daughter's action i don't like to pick leaning against a dog and i see those organizations which are all usually split into which we feel we've taken different names i'll give you that look. at. the complex web of british fashion.
2:20 pm
germany and france side with the u.k. calling on russia to prove its innocence in the poisoning of former double agent surrogates cliff powell and his daughter that is moscow reaffirms it had nothing to do with the attack. tuesday marks fifteen years since the start of operation iraqi freedom and america's invasion of iraq we speak to former detainees of the infamous abu ghraib prison. after roe was released whenever he saw americans on the street i would be terrified they would send me back to that place and torture me to go it still keeps me up at night remembering the torture. and the way the protests mark the saudi crown prince his visit to washington with donald trump has been sound man set to discuss the round nuclear deal and the bombing of yemen.
2:21 pm
so the welcome you're watching r.t. international will start this hour with breaking because the shooting has been reported at great mills high school in maryland in the u.s. police say the event there is contained and the school is on lockdown the local sheriff's office has said though that several people have been taken to hospital in fact a media conference is expected to take place shortly and of course will be across that for you with any more data. russia demands that the u.k. either prove or apologize for its accusations over the poisoning of former double agent and his daughter in the city of seoul sprayed him at the escalating conflict the prime minister to resign may is convening a national security council meeting on tuesday to discuss the response artie's don't you hawkins been following the standoff between the two states. so far over
2:22 pm
the last fifteen days it's very much been a predictable different tit for tat the expulsion of those russian diplomats and the british diplomats likewise from moscow what we do know in terms of the debate the wider fallout the support u.k. has received and merkel one major european power leader has been in consultation with the polish prime minister mr. mori work where she has condemned russia and divided russia provide proof of what she describes as its involvement in this case proof of its innocence this is what she had to say by it we have both today on the same level condemned the use of a nerve agent in great britain i have also spoken with the prime minister of great britain and we stand on the side with them we are of the opinion that there are very serious indications there russia has something to do with this now it's up to russia to show this is not the case the president. is joining in the chorus
2:23 pm
plying that russia may have stockpiled or perhaps even lost control of some of those alleged chemical weapons chemical agents it does possess calling on russia to reveal any of those two that this is the statement from the french. the french president has called on russian authorities to shed light on their role in relation to the unacceptable attack in salisbury and to take back full control of any programs not to clear to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons further to those talks in warsaw the polish government also saying unconfirmed sources at the moment but saying they are considering expanding russian diplomats in solidarity with the u.k. also considering apparently bringing in sanctions against certain russian government officials and certain companies as well the whole. owners here of course being on russia to prove its innocence and prove. evidence of a lack of involvement in this case as opposed to the other way around the u.k. provide evidence of direct. russian involvement. to these countries that cetera
2:24 pm
very much of things perhaps slightly being turned on their head here short of what has been the official russian reaction and to all of this initially of course denied any knowledge any involvement in what exactly happened to mr script while the presidential spokesman saying that confirming once again that russia the russian federation has not developed such nerve agents has not stopped while such nerve agents and indeed destroyed its chemical weapons stockpile last year and twenty seventeen believe we covered that story on r.t. as well as confirmed by the o.p.c. w. stating that any insinuation to the contrary is effectively undermining that international body which in itself confirmed that russia did get rid of its chemical stockpiles last year the actual investigation itself into this is been going on now for two weeks what's the latest on that it's been it's been two weeks of course since the former russian but agent mr script now we sleep refuge in the
2:25 pm
u.k. now in hospital as well as his daughter you were. poisoned allegedly by a nerve agent there a critical condition several other people witnesses a police officer as well had symptoms of poisoning by that substance one of them by the remains critical in hospital as well and a very serious condition since then that investigation has been ongoing what's what's key here is there is a criminal investigation it's in its sheer complexity it's the largest investigation of one of the largest of its kind in counter-terror policing in the u.k. two hundred fifty police officers working on the case detectives thousands of hours of c.c.t.v. hundreds of pieces of evidence witnesses being questioned as well what's perhaps key to remember here is so far the police have said there are no official suspects named or no persons of interest named there has been no blame assigned by the way as to who. could be behind this individual act the state actor or the police.
2:26 pm
released a statement is still very much an on going to go should never the less that diplomatic row has occurred the russian diplomats were expelled twenty three of the bar to resign my today have left or in the process rather of leaving london presumably the british that provides who've been expelled by moscow will leave as well so the diplomatic fallout really shows no sign of abating despite a lack of suspects officially as of yet announced by the investigating officers and hawkins there speaking to me a bit earlier on despite the probe into the poisoning of so basically powell and his daughter still ongoing media were very quick to blame russia as artesia now reports the west is in no doubt russia tried to poison one of its x. agents on putin's orders but if true that's actually a bit embarrassing professional assassins cover their tracks they don't leave their fingerprints all over the scene yet that's what using a nerve agent produced only in the soviet union essentially amounts to at least if
2:27 pm
it was the russians on top of this the assassination bid looks like it was a botched job with collateral damage and it's attracting an intense amount of global scrutiny presumably that was not what was intended and not what you'd expect from a slick all powerful secret service russian or not and yet rageous an illegal act on british soil an attack on the united kingdom new generation against the west the increasingly violent erratic approach of the right content to contempt of the rule of law and content of our values so which is it bumbling idiots or super spies if we look back it seems the answer that question can be tailored to fit the situation take the alleged hacking of the u.s. presidential election washington called the operation sophisticated and attack the likes of which have never been seen before russia's blatant interference in the united states twenty sixteen presidential elections any have said this is actually the crime of the century you have really. russian and of. themselves
2:28 pm
no doubt and yet those sophisticated attackers didn't make the slightest effort to hide their locations any tom dick or harry can throw their ip address to make it look like they're based anywhere in the world and yet all the ip addresses were russian a similar situation was seen in germany not long before their national election took place again the conclusion was that moscow was behind the hack because the ip addresses originated and russia however we've seen the exact opposite as well when south korean government computers were the targets of cyber attacks during the winter olympics the ip addresses use were from inside north korea but it was determined the hackers were russians they were simply not asking their locations this time around damned if you do damned if you don't know everything that goes wrong must be russia we have our police saying that actually it's going to take months to try if i end up trying to work out what happened build the evidential chain and yes on another hand as well we have the british media immediately
2:29 pm
stampeding to say it must be the kremlin it must be russia so this strange mishmash of speculation is very distressing to someone who used to work on the inside i would say as well that people like me have been challenging this narrative in the u.k. media for the last two weeks ever since the attack happened and the list could go on but the point is the western narrative doesn't care if russian intelligence is smart or dumb or anything in between it only has to be one thing and that thing is guilty you. know it is exactly fifteen years since the united states began an operation called iraqi freedom commonly known as the iraq war or started out as a promise to liberate a country from a dictator turned into years of conflict across the region is reminder of how it all unfolded. less than a teaspoon full of dry anthrax in an audible open shutdown the united states senate
