2:39 am
bin salomon was in the white house protesters gathered outside they called on washington to end its support for saudi arabia's bombardment of yemen the conflict in saudi arabia's southern neighbor has been going on for three years killing thousands of civilians. well the saudi crown prince and the u.s. president are also expected to discuss a possible new clear energy deal hamad bin selman earlier told said riyadh need is the option of pursuing a nuclear weapons program to counter iran the city writing that until it's a saudi arabia does not want to acquire any nuclear bomb but without a doubt if iran developed a nuclear bomb we will follow suit as soon as possible or plans for nuclear cooperation with the saudis have caused a lot in the u.s. house of representatives a bill has been introduced which would force any countries in nuclear partnerships to renounce technology that could lead to the creation of atomic weapons saudi arabia has previously refused to sign any agreement with washington that would
2:40 am
prevent it from enriching uranium work members of the house from both sides expressed their long about saudi arabia's intentions. the idea of saudi arabia having a nuclear program with the ability to enrich is a major national security concern there are security risks to consider the potential boost for the u.s. economy and renewal of the u.s. nuclear industry already desirable but that of but it hasn't made clear what we can feasibly expect so we need to be careful and not allow saudi arabia to develop a nuclear weapon just because we're worried about the nuclear program in iran and you're back even though a country that we think we have friends you just never know whose hands these weapons will fall into at a later date well political analysts come our alarm says when dealing with the south is the top priority for the u.s. is economic gain. i think one key factor could be just economics and there's
2:41 am
probably hundreds of millions of dollars or even billions for us defense industry. to make if they can foresee. as well as foster the relationship of the saudi nuclear advancement and that's what i think will be the real reason for the american support it they cannot be any other rational reason because it's a proliferation of weapons of mass destruction a little lease is not good for anyone but we've seen before as far as the defense industry goes as many weapons as you can see as many contractors you can sign the reconstruction the religious sticks they'll be a lot of big companies that can benefit from this financially that can be the only reason nothing else. dozens of children in the moscow region are being treated for gas poisoning people in the town the valar claimed a landfill site and gathered outside the hospital where the children were taken the

2:43 am

station and those are also one a russian commander and so on the air all five japanese a flight engineer nora she can i add american flight engineer scott tingle and those guys that have been up by the international space station since december from on call sort of artsy baikonur cosmodrome in kazakhstan. well back at the top of the hour. it would appear the more the political left and their allies in the corporate media tapped donald trump the more we learn about the corrupt behavior of the deep state the firing of andrew mccabe at the f.b.i. is a case in point is this the beginning of
2:47 am
a purge. that spreads for a single purpose. they have a superman. they start training very young. they months of intensive school. rats. and they save lives. of our.
2:48 am
ratings and sell you something. for many especially on a national level politics is a game of some to view fantasy sleight of hand style dance of distraction and manipulation pay attention to this large loud shiny thing over here while the secret hidden wizards by the curtain pulled the strings over here on your life liberty and happiness normally your elected leaders can play this game without a glitch avoid making any public decisions or displays that show them for the showmen that many of them truly are but sometimes there is
2:49 am
a glitch in the political matrix and they vote or leak pulls back the curtain this week had to on tuesday well saudi arabia's crime crown prince was wined and dined and shined all over washington d.c. the men and women of the united states senate were forced to put their campaign trail promises of peace and goodwill to the test as they voted on whether or not to withdraw u.s. military support of saudi arabia's ongoing humanitarian catastrophe in yemen they failed that test fifty five to forty four the senate voted to continue helping saudi arabia drive us made bombs on the starving war torn nation of yemen the second crack in the facade came with reports that congress has decided that the sexual harassment settlement cost racked up by lawmakers year after year will continue to be paid for by taxpayer dollars senator kirsten gillibrand who
2:50 am
prove who spearheaded measures to reform capitol hill's workplace misconduct system was livid telling the media that killing these reforms begs the question who are they trying to protect i can't think of any legitimate reason to remove this language other than to protect members of congress over tax payers and congressional employees. pro-war pro sexual harassment this is united states of american car race now let's start watching the hawks. what. it looks like. it's like. the bottom. like you that i got. this. week so. well for the watch of the hawks i'm tired robot
2:51 am
and on top of the list congress is once again not shocked me in the least bit but their inability to do simplest simplest of things to make humanity a slightly better place yeah it's funny how they just can't quite get over that hill now there's already an entire mcgrath's holding out there's always something like this is what we call we couldn't do it for this reason or this one is reading them so now it's called raising that they possibly have of saying you know what taxpayers should pay for stevie's i mean pick monsters in congress to go about harassing men and women that's that's what you're saying stuart the spokeswoman for the set of majority leader mitch mcconnell has a hamster for you he was lying to congress it was deliberate his comments saying well this important issue is being discussed at no time was language from senate julep sen joe abrams' bill adopted to the legislation and or stripped. that i mean
2:52 am
i don't know if. that's for other people to decide but that seems an awful lot like mansplaining to me to senator jill brown was she was kind of like saying they basically took the language of my there's no make the omnibus bill you're not going to vote it. honey you're just so it was never really there to you know but we haven't taken it off yet it's gaslight and you know it's literally that's gaslighting that's oh no you're crazy it wasn't there you're crazy you're the one who's always getting a little emotional the congressional harassment reform and the idea was that members of congress congress would personally pay for sexual harassment settlements when they're when they're found liable when they're found guilty so lawmakers can tap but one currently what's going on right now as we've seen is that lawmakers can tout taxpayer funds to settle with victims playing this game of like well is not really liable we may or may not be there but will settle anyway unless the victim
2:53 am
opts for privacy under the access of minutes with and automatically be made public which i think is important if the victim of that harassment is ok with people knowing about it is ok with that it needs to come out we need to how much money was spent for these people to go around being scumbags and who was being settled with what do i read in the sons of like ok like you're somebody comes forward and says that this guy discriminated against me or this person social unrest was real and this person is an elected official yes we should know about this and i think it's absolutely rid don't kill this leave ridiculous on the taxpayers for their misdeeds but i guess that's kind of the american way these days you know that's that's kind of like hey you know what put it on the taxpayer well you know what we'll pay for it to be fine the taxpayers pay for it but we're in a mix so much money from saudi arabia. that i know you saw our illustrious leader standing there with his little tag board. the little posterboard
2:54 am
of vicarious all the fabulous things we're going to sell so you could murder people in yemen oh at the expense of yemeni lives yeah good point and the crime or grand i mean the crown that slip of the tongue and how you know it's funny because the u.s. just weren't clear u.s. provides a solid coalition with intelligence where khan assumes a mid-air fire revealing everything they need to wage this air war of this catastrophe humanitarian catastrophe in yemen three. congressman came forward to try to withhold that to basically do congress's job and say look you have to get our authorization to involve our military with right with a war that we really have nothing to do with you know those were bernie sanders of vermont mike lee republican of utah and chris murphy the democrat of connecticut. as i said earlier democrats democrats voted with the republican majority including the senate armed services committees ranking democrats that are jack reed of rhode
2:55 am
island and senator joe donnelly of indiana they all voted to basically say no words totally cool for the military your taxpayer funded military to be aiding saudi arabia probably what i said humanitarian catastrophe i believe it is one of the worst humanitarian crisis of our time going on in yemen but work with us you know that's what we do for mon senator bernie sanders actually put up the card put up about actually said some will argue on the floor today that we're we're really not engaged in hostilities we're not exchanging fire people please tell that to the people of young men whose homes and lives are being destroyed by weapons marked made in the usa drop by planes being refueled by the u.s. military on targets chosen with u.s. assistance at some point the united states and our government can't keep pushing this off and saying other people do it and playing their version of what about islam there has to be some understanding that your actions have consequences or your population will not care that there are consequences for act and i'm sorry
2:56 am
those democrats in congress gating abetting the do the president that you hate the most by giving him this blank check to use the military whatever you want food for thought. earlier this year we reported on south africa's water crisis and while extreme conservation efforts may have pushed the country's day zero the day the country runs out of reusable war reusable fresh water deep into the rainy season which may ultimately save the city's water supply that doesn't mean that there are not lessons to be learned because according to a new report south africa may just be the canary in the coal mine for an impending freshwater crisis of global proportions unesco the united nations educational scientific and cultural organizations new world water development report paints a dire picture for the future unless major global changes are made to how we use and recycle our water supplies the guardian reports that according to the study more than five billion people could suffer water shortages by two thousand and fifteen due to climate change increased demand and polluted supplies the
2:57 am
development report goes on to predict that by two thousand and fifty somewhere between four point eight and five point seven billion human beings will live in areas that face water scarce cities for at least one month each year this is up from the three point six billion people living under those conditions today so with the world now staring down the reality of losing one half of life's two most important components just how will humanity solve the problem and the answer might be a lot more simple than we've been allowed ourselves to think treated intriguing to have these numbers for a whole lot of. the bird that we've let it go because for good solid use water oxygen one hundred year when you go for the things in order to go without food for weeks and i go without water for a few days. how do we lower the floor this is a well. and the answer to all this was some of it's because of how much humans use a lot of water so your average human uses about forty six hundred cubic kilometers
2:58 am
of water every year which kind of a matter of how big that is it's a lot and why our systems right now are plumbing systems at least here in the united states maybe in other countries might be a little better. in the united states there are not meant for conservation though they're meant for power in you. know when we're talking about a world population that's supposed to be very ready for this but they have a lot of neighbors the world popular supposedly nine to ten billion people of the year twenty fifty. seven point seven right. and global demand has increased six fold over the past hundred years and grows at a rate of one percent a year to get you know of the consumption of water and seventy percent of our water's used for agriculture yes as they're saying that that's how much they use but remember how much of it goes to agriculture it takes much more water to raise a cow than it does to plant. it's amazing and the report essentially says that
2:59 am
change is still possible but only if we go towards more of a major based solution i do you rather you don't rely more on what earth provides and how earth tempers and distributes water rather than manmade rather than infrastructure great infrastructure as it's called most right i mean you can only build so many dams you can only build so many awkward for us because there's opera for us are already in distress. you can't you know we've we've put dams on whatever places that we can get water from and we've put pipelines down we all know that but ultimately if you can't keep them filled or you can't do certain things it's not going to help and one of the the answers the main answers lie is in that seventy percent number that you mentioned ok seventy percent goes to agriculture yeah where is this wonderful ag culture that is where it's literally throwing water into areas where there isn't water pumping up from other places or as we've seen going into groundwater and using it like on the plane ticket takes a lot of water so i think one of the things is moving over to more conservation agriculture i think you know talk of talked about it
3:00 am
a lot i think one of the saviors of urban food deserts is having hydroponics and things that are grown and side because you don't lose water you can reuse water you can do tons of things out of it and i think doing that. and more indoor environments and letting the land rafts and letting water replete you know repeat itself and clean itself to nature does that but we don't given enough time yeah it's interesting how much it goes back to kind of like big corporate industry you know the idea that we're going to just kind of go through and lay waste to the land because they don't want out of and you know why it's because industrial farms farms and i'll tell you what they don't do they don't rotate crops properly they don't take care of the water they don't care care of the land the way that farmers family farms the one percent or a family running it they did they looked at the water because that was the water they drank they save the land because that was their land they needed it for generations to survive they cared industrial farming companies don't care they'll just go buy something.
