you have stocks these are also very obvious rules one of you have stocks which is google and you're making billions and billions of dollars by law you have to pay dividends furthermore we have to specify exactly where you mean by dividends right because trust me if we put in a room place i guarantee you a bunch of companies are going to make one hundred dollars a pop a penny to their investors saying hey we paid dividends you know now we've got to specify also how much dividends are actually real dividends like what i did find my book is also they have to pay a reasonable and regular dividend a reasonable part of someone else to do nice sort of start up companies including tesla which is if you want start up money if you want startup capital ok go ahead issue stocks issue as many shares are you want except for one thing if you're not making money your stocks are not going to just be traded on this ponzi market and let people start piling up the value you've got to keep your shares where they are until you start making money and then when you're start making money and when you start paying dividends and that stock becomes a legitimate equity instrument with

a monetary connection to your company and a monetary connection to your profit then we'll let you start trading ok but we're simply not just going to pay you know you make absolutely no money and you just lose until the money but we'll just let your stock go out there and let people ponzi it up with the possible future prospects in the speculative game that they play that's what i guess you could say this is simple solutions to hey you know if you make money you got to pay if you don't make money sure if you raise money but we're going to let you ponzi it up out there good point good point and i was a lot of the other point you make that they shouldn't be called dollars until they've actually until you've actually turned it into actual cash so while they're part of the stock market it should you should say that an apple share is worth a thousand something else bluebells and in my and i in my rant i called it a thousand producers but whatever you pick a word other than dollars because people view that as actual dollars. so i thank you so much for being here i really recommend people check out your book

this. day downwards we want to. welcome back to a special episode redacted tonight by the way i'll be back next week with a regular redacted a live audience and all will bring them all back again but for right now let's talk with a congressional candidate trying to end the wave rule of corporate queen mansi pelosi in san francisco without further ado here's my interview with shah have been. good to see again good to see you it's always great to be with you thanks so much for being here so you're running for us congress in san francisco i've known you for several years now you've been a long time activist and organizer you've worked with the electronic frontier foundation what made you decide that now's the time to jump into politics and go up against good old nancy pelosi. really at least for the white house seeing an

apologetic kleptocracy in the in the white house makes it particularly important for congress to play its constitutional role of checking and balancing the executive branch and as an issue out as an immigrant someone who's fought mass surveillance for the last fifteen years to witness the leader of the democrats in the house basically and they believe the trumpet ministration while mouthing resistance to it was a little bit more than i could bear and i'm very concerned about the future of our country i'm very concerned about the aggrandizement of executive power about the war on drugs about the corporate control over our federal policy and if that's how it's going to be at least want to throw myself on the tracks and that's why i'm here yeah boy it seems like the corporate dems along with of course the republicans just want to give trump a dictator's toolkit or at least maintain the one that was created under bush and obama you mention surveillance the endless surveillance around our lives how do you

how do you differ from pelosi on that. so in january nancy pelosi took action in the house to basically undermine a proposed judicial warrant requirement that would have constrained to mastic n.s.a. f.b.i. n.d.a. searches to ensure that if the government's going to spy on someone that has a reason for doing so we know that in at least dozens of cases and essay employees and contractors have used the surveillance tools that our government has constructed illegally and in secret to spy on their former lovers or ex-wives that's exactly the kind of abuse that a judicial warrant requirement would stop and it is exactly what she prevented from becoming law in the face of and this is important bipartisan support for a judicial warrant requirement you know a lot of people think about our politics system as divided between left and right which is the democrats versus republicans but increasingly that's not necessarily the accurate way it splits it's much more about center versus periphery because the

establishment of the g.o.p. and the establishment of the dems and democrats they march in lockstep and the direction in which they're marching is not one that respects the rights and liberties of the american people and ultimately it is an effort across the wings of the political sphere spectrum take gang up on the center progressives and libertarians acting together to defend our constitutional commitments you know that's the vision and that's particularly how i differ from palosi one other thing i'd say there is aside from surveillance nancy pelosi was read into bush era torture of the sort that was implicated in the recent cia nomination and you know a lot of people were concerned about gina hospitals record on human rights but very few pin the tail on the donkey which is to say nancy pelosi learned about enhanced interrogation more than ten years ago and instead of raising an alarm as one would expect as one is required to do in that role she swept it under the rug and so

whether it's surveillance whether it's torture and human rights whether. it's accountability for police violence on all of these issues she's really abandon the rights of her constituents and that's a big part of why i'm running i would describe nancy pelosi as the very embodiment of the party establishment she personifies it to a greater degree than anyone else in the party and when characterizing the conflicts in congress as one. that falls on the shoals of a partisan dysfunction that analysis which corporate democrats are very eager to promote obscures the litany of areas where corporate democrats vote with republicans to undermine the rights of the american people here in san francisco for instance there's an affordable housing crisis that's gotten worse and worse over the last several decades it's striking to look at the federal affordable housing block grants to the housing and urban development agency hud they've dropped dramatically over the thirty years that nancy pelosi has been in congress and she's helped oversee essentially the of this aeration of any federal support

for local affordable housing markets and these are the kinds of roots of contemporary problems that few traces back and so you know whether it's human rights and torture by the cia which if you trace it back leads to leader pelosi office or at least one opportunity to stop it that was not actualized whether it's affordable housing and the crisis gripping urban centers around the country including here in san francisco so for this next question i'm going to do my best to birth the nation over a public and how are we going to pay for it such things where i want the money come from. it's a great question and the answer is very simple i can give it to you in one word pentagon corporate weapons contracts through the defense department account for trillions of dollars and i said that with teeth i think it's hard for people to understand the amount of money that is squandered on corporate weapons contract we do have real national security threats in the united states climate change is one of them that the pentagon has recognized culture and a lack of election hacking might be another

a maniacal president instigating unnecessary conflicts might be a third you can't stop any of those things with a fighter plane even if it worked which it doesn't and even if it weren't the object of procurement malpractise which has been described by obama administration officials you know when the military recognizes boondoggles and congress continues to fund them even though their failed fraudulent programs that lack a strategic rationale that's a trillion and a half dollars available from which we could secure medicare for all affordable college early childhood development resources and the affordable housing block grants that are falling through the floor these social services are necessary for the livelihood the well being of the american people we have the money it comes from taxpayers and at the moment it goes to corporate. quarter weapons manufacturers i do want to add one point particular i'm very concerned about ending homelessness among veterans ten percent of our homeless population around the

united states includes people who have served in uniform and when the defense department has a trillion and a half dollars to hurl at lockheed martin for unnecessary wasteful fraudulent weapons when veterans are sleeping on cardboard boxes in the rain i have a problem with that and i'm not willing to let that go down that's a big reason why i'm running to make sure that we get the money from the pentagon and divert it to rechannel it to the needs of working american people speaking of money i got to ask you the i think it should probably be the number one question of any candidate running for office do you take corporate money i don't you know we made a pledge not to accept contributions from corporate pacs and ultimately i mean to be fair i don't think most corporations would want to fund me anyway because i'm pretty explicit in my my aims and they tend not to overlap the interests of corporations there is one exception i don't take money from the biggest you know a set of corporations that share interests with some of the issues that our campaign is promoting when we talk about mass surveillance and the co-optation of

the internet as a tool for governments to monitor their citizens you know one very well resourced a very well positioned set of companies that shares an interest in resisting the global co-optation of the internet is the tech sector and tech companies that have been. largely quiet as the mass surveillance regime has become at a static at the local and the state and the federal level and even internationally those are companies that share the least theoretical interests in guarding the privacy of their consumers and i do hope that voices in that sector recognize the opportunity to defend share principles even though i am ultimately very concerned and much more concerned about people than corporations that is one set of companies that at least has a theoretic. interest however. quiet they've been about promoting yeah something you touched on i wanted to ask you about is you know you say you saw facebook go in

front of congress and mark zuckerberg and they're asking about data mining and of course that whole business model of facebook and on top of that these congress people are asking about or are mentioning the fact that the n.s.a. is collecting all our data as well so the act holier than thou on facebook was kind of hysterical but also i was kind of struck by how they don't even seem to understand most of the technology that is controlling our lives is hugely impactful in our lives like do you feel we're we're quickly getting to a place where congress doesn't even understand what they're supposed to be legislating on. i wouldn't say quickly getting to a place i would say we have long been at a place where congress has no clue not just about it in the facebook hearings were a perfect example of what i would describe as congressional illiteracy about issues that are of global importance and yet we charge these people with making the law and it's absurd when the people who are charged with making the law reveal their

profound ignorance of the issues that they're addressing is not just facebook right i mean most members of congress have no idea how the separation of powers works that's one reason why they haven't been as offended about the increasing authoritarianism and the rise of executive power and it's bipartisan and transshipment over the last particularly eighteen years there's a whole set of other issues and if you think about members of congress being basically the. selected from the richest class of americans and i think largely they are insulated from the pressures that working americans face it's another dimension of congressional ignorance because members of congress don't recognize that there is an urban housing crisis around the country they don't recognize that there is a health care crisis around the country when the cost of corporate health care and you are one of the leading drivers of both bankruptcy and homelessness and congress just continues to operate as if it's business as usual it is long been apparent to me that congress has either had its head in the sand or. perhaps of it's behind but

at the end of the day the illiteracy of congress is thoroughly. established at this point. in this in this final met a minute here i wanted to get to you know this is a very racially charged time and as things get worse in our country it's you know the people that deal first brunt of it are the worst of it are going to be and are already minorities and immigrants do you feel your background gives you a vantage and defending people of color right now. yes absolutely you know i am an immigrant muslim i have taken direct action with the movement for black lives i have. argued in policy for the immigrant rights movement. in the policies here and in the courts and in the media challenge the f.b.i. infiltration of muslim communities as well as quaker peace groups and animal rights activists you know the concerns of any particular minority community and give us a lens through which to understand the corruption of the system that is abusing all of us in different ways right it's not just the war on drugs it's not just the war

on terror and it's not just the war on immigrants and workers it's all of those things together and if we look on the other side of the equation from the targeted communities what we see is a government and military industrial apparatus that is increasingly corrupt and i do think that my position as a person of color as a constitutional scholar as someone long committed to intersectional resistance that i do have a particularly insightful lens on precisely that set of issues. thank you for joining me and i hope you've given nancy pelosi a run for money many thanks lee it's always great to be with you that's all for now but for free exclusive content takes the word redacted to four four four nine nine nine and then you'll be kept up to date with all of our videos also don't forget to subscribe to youtube dot com that's redacted tonight and then click the little bell next to subscribe because otherwise they will never tell you about our videos you've got to click the bell until next time goodnight.

to high school shootings rocked the united states with one person killed in georgia and ten dead in texas after a student opened fire here. thanks to the years i. bought my. screw palace released from hospital in the united kingdom ten weeks after he was poisoned by a nerve agent although his whereabouts haven't been revealed. and investigations underway in cuba as to why a passenger plane crashed shortly after takeoff killing more than one hundred people. and the party's poised to form italy's next coalition government unveil a political program that attacks some of the most entrenched policies.

very good evening to you pleasure to have your company as always my name's neil harvey this is artie international. friday turned deadly after two shooting incidents at high schools in the united states one in the morning in texas the other later at night in georgia and the latest into the one person was killed two others wounded as an argument broke out in a school parking lot it happened after a graduation ceremony held across the street earlier a massacre at santa fe high school ten people dead and ten others wounded. we started immediately barricaded in the door as soon as we got the classrooms and mean a couple fellow our classmates were trying to calm the girls down because they were just cry bawling you know that it was really like it was actually happening to our

school. to several people down to four we get out of something that often comes out funny but. not my friend got shot in our home and this is the only one out everybody just started running outside and they think you know everybody works and you hear. it. to the ears and i called my boss. we were playing dead so like you to come to the scene like maybe he shot us a little. the information contained in journals on his computer and cell phone did he said that not only did he want to commit the shooting but he wanted to commit suicide after the shooting.

the santa fe shooter has been identified a seventeen year old student to me today of this he stormed the school with a shotgun and a revolver could document state that he didn't shoot people he knew and liked so that quote he could have a story told the school shootings of playing dozens of lives this year in the united states with twenty eight teen amazingly proving deadly the students than it has them for members of the armed forces the cystic showed at thirty one have died in sixteen school shooting incidents while the been twenty nine military casualties both non-combat thing. january doesn't mean however that schools are more dangerous than combat zones is the number of people in the armed forces nearly fifty times less than the number of students a large part of the shooting victims come from the parkland massacre alone took place three months ago.

we discussed the issue with international criminal law attorney jennifer breed and she says it's easy to oversimplify the problem of gun control. you know we have one side going for more mental health issues screening wanting to protect that and the other side we have just gun control in trying to demonize things like the n.r.a. and i think there are aspects to both you know there are these gray areas which in america we're sort of losing when it comes to these political talking points so i think there are some gun control issues that i do agree with for example you know a lousy american citizens to hold firearms and to carry firearms was a self-defense method meant to protect against against an attack on

a stick government a government that become oppressive against the people and that was to protect our families and self-defense they never considered assault weapons as part of that self-defense or some of these mass military grade assault weapons and so we're also looking at families absolute failure to protect their children their young ones who are who might have issues the parents would know best from getting a weapon that could kill people when the parents have the responsibility there we're just looking at a lack of responsibility on many aspects in us society here. former russian spy so go screw bones were about to be secret following his release from hospital in the u.k. in his duty you would have me to ten weeks ago after exposure to a nerve agent in the city of souls proof. has been following the story for us. it isn't just the british we all love a story that ends well screwball case that was an ugly business a disgusting inhumane assassination attempt that thankfully failed it is
