in hydraulic fracturing they know that the united states in the past five years went from importing something like sixty percent of the oil that we use down to thirty percent and that is a direct result of the hydraulic fracturing that's taken place like here and williston in the bach and in and in other areas they want to put these companies out of business. even if circumstances are worrisome these days i fear that he has not stopped after ten thousand the well as we still need to extract the millions of barrels lying beneath the bakken. this situation brings happiness to the one person for serious companies but it is devastating to the oil workers who are no longer needed they are thrown out into the streets without pity they must decide whether to go back home or stay liston looking for new jobs. in february twenty fifteen want one of my coworkers i work with he calmly and he said manages late everybody oh. he's in a tell everybody to go to a room get all

a stuff in get out and this will two o'clock in the morning at night in february in the winter. a man can say emptied out enclosed one day to the next. these dilapidated barracks will probably pollute the landscape for eight years to come. construction sites for abandoned by the dozen and left to rest and to keep. housing construction began at the peak of the relist boom is now nearly complete. by. in part by survivors of the the neighborhood seems sadly empty.

here and with the downturn in the economy fertile soil prices. i can still raise more money than i care back home. just. not as much strangers to. carry i consider myself fortunate because i still have a job just talk no friend just yesterday he got laid off so he's got to go back to louisiana to find find work. because there are not too many people hiring or.

fifty years ago breaking within two cons are going on as a sleeping pill does this is what i mean because i just does what he said to the scientific sweat terrible but not on the road as shown in dutch one football movie here not the war then will come up across europe victims are starting legal battles demanding at least some compensation in something to wait till the physical damage itself as well that the conscious mind that the people who actually perpetrated this crime has never been able to justice and there has been a couple of. what politicians to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be

president. or some want to be. considered like to be for us this is what the four three in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the waters in my. first sip. it's hard. but i'm. i made him good money and i mean bills off me both to help my children. and. my children are very poor. just something that has to be done. you know that it's just like this job too

you know two nights ago i wanted to go home i was tired. but. the roof high tanks we had to haul the water otherwise to the well shut down and. people get upset so. you do what you have to do. in the oil. adults has slowed down but still steady and you know just well doing three jobs every day of the week. said the

donor shop it's work about sixty eight hours. in the day for the guy doing construction maybe five or six. and this he's now working out three or four making the sandwiches and. when. i read this place to adam for only three hundred fifty dollars a month he has the whole downstairs to himself. which is a little bit messy. i claimed. he had to

leave california because there's no jobs why is there no jobs there's too many mexicans makes good to do the same job i was doing for half the price. you know how many donuts oh. wow. they were twenty four or. have. been encouraging out him to save some money. so that he can move his family here and put a deposit first and last month's rent on an apartment he's a good father he misses a little girl you know. missing. forward . when oil reached twenty nine dollars

a barrel we weren't doing anything march was a bad month but now it's suddenly picked up to forty dollars a barrel and we're busy again the companies have done so much cost cutting and efficiency that if the price goes to fifty it will be like it used to be eighty. the rig counts the number of rigs drilling new holes in the ground has gone way down from over two hundred to i think the thirty five rigs active in the block and . as time goes on without new wells being drilled and frat our one point one million barrels a day will go down naturally slowly in some point in the two to five years there will be a supply and demand reversal whereas now we're oversupplied will be under supply and the price will shoot up. between now and then it will go like this and at some

point it will go up. and if the price go ever goes to one hundred and it will someday. north dakota will be crawling with workers looking for housing and there will be a huge labor shortage the companies will be throwing money at us. now we're mostly working for folks who have oil rigs oil pumps on their land and they have those monthly checks coming in from the old companies and they're spending money on their homes. or lot of people have disappeared out here gone back home i guess i know some are gone back to bozeman big sky erika's constructions doing ok there some went back to minneapolis some to idaho but yeah a lot of people have left here i don't know too many people here anymore they're all gone just slow down too much they lost their jobs got laid off so couldn't put in the hours a lot of families to a lot of guys in the oil business the higher ups the guys making more money they've

gone to south america in the middle east so they'll be back i guess some day but. so that's the general process. sort of her cleaning the litter. i could buy a house and i did i could stay in a very nice apartment but i don't need it and i have very low overhead and i like it that way and i don't have a lot of needs. so this is stuff. this was

a barn garage and there was it a snow storm and heavy snow storm about three years ago i suppose and this snow load on the roof caused the roof to collapse so anyway it's kind of an open air garage and. i. have a hose hooked up in there and i wash off and rick. thanks . to the oil industry has changed dramatically and i don't like to see that i see companies going out of business and people being fired and laid off and loading up a u.-haul trailers and heading out of town and it's sad. it hasn't really affected me because. we service the infrastructure that has been built and once that infrastructure is built it still needs to be maintained i'm very

thankful for that said i'm sure it's. so tonight well for new people. for one of the last minute rush. but it's nice to have the company and i actually enjoy. as i said before i've you're really outside of. the former girlfriend came all the times oh you're like the only visitors that i've had here. in the over forty years that i've been and will most. used to be are are or

who are interested in girls. that like politics i've come to realize well politics is a scam girls are just problems. i mean. so i stay away from both of. you. for. this gas station over here we used to deliver to them. three four dozen donuts last week they quit the order altogether because nobody was coming in to i don't so.

here goes one more. it's always get this one and keep on going around the corner. because you're importing people on how to get the best that. you should think they sell. cindy the owner of the or the manager of the store there. her business is down so far that she's had to. take on a second job now so she soles cosmetics to women here in the oil field. we gave a lot to come up here but we thought it was going to be best for our family we

thought that the oil boom would be here for at least another fifteen years and that we would be able to. be able to make enough money to pay for our kids to go to college. the american dream is changing that's not what it used to be. and. it's a tough reality and new york. is

still a boom will come back but if it does it'll be much much more shallow a growth curve. and won't be nearly as. much money and. i'm not. going to try optimist. i think it's going to come back. from.

china says they're going to buy a lot more stuff from the us and the tromp is having a fact i mean is that weighing into the minish of trained else. no president has done that iraq can recall usually they just paint a broad stroke and hope for the bastogne he's actually getting into the details of

trade deals that tell us into that go. apply for many clubs over the years so i know the guy even saw you guys. football isn't 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 superman ija billionaire owners expenditure to twenty million a warm playa. it's an experience like nothing else on to because i want to share what i think what i know about the beautiful guy was great so it will transfer. the case it's going to. you never know what's around the corner you never know what's in the pub you going to walk into excitement it's that not knowing that's where the adrenalin much comes

from. and you can use a nice feeling to finish him and the extreme through all. the violence he's a part of and it's almost a schizophrenia going to where you can do all the sleaze and behave badly. you're going to be full of all this colorful all. those more social this is the last. fun this movie and infirmed. real good on our list and if. i would roll where. i really did a poll down now would i get. a million reason is that the fifty one and the involved is constantly involved in the. whole. show it's seemed wrong when old rules just

don't all. get to shape out just the cuts to education and in detroit equals betrayal. when somebody find themselves worlds apart week choose to look for common ground. terrorism is one of the possible motives being considered in the shooting in the belgian. which has left three people and the suspect. an f.b.i. informant will respond us politicians and the media gets into a muddle over how to describe the role of the cambridge professor will try to donald trump's election campaign and it leads political crisis deepens

a failed euro skeptic coalition says the. italian president's decision to appoint a brussels friendly interim government. one can say no minister with his name goofy pluto or donald duck because he is not approved by the stock market the financial world to some european capitals is this a joke. the israeli parliament debates a new law that would ban the filming of i.d.f. soldiers who are currently in the spotlight for allegedly using excessive force. the welcome is just gone three pm here in moscow the watching international now top story is in belgium because two police officers there and a passer by have been killed in a shooting in the city of two other police officers are thought to have been injured.

this video appeared online purportedly showing the area of the attack gunfire can be heard so let's get more now from our europe correspondent peter wallace then he's following events peter just run through then how events did unfold and what else do we know. well we've been able to get a bit more information from both official sources as well as media on the ground there. are reports saying it's not seen as folded in the investigation now is continuing it's been confirmed that two police officers and one passive by were shot dead another two police officers were wounded also a woman was taken hostage at one point during a standoff the gunman has been killed by police we understand that he got ahold of a weapon after disarming the two of the the two police officers that were killed

that's coming from the city prosecutor speaking to do so she at a press news agency but the authorities the commenting when it comes to any motive what we're hearing from the interior minister all of belgian jambon is the offices are on the scene investigating but they're trying to get to the bottom of the potential motive and terrorism is just one of the scenarios that they're looking at right now but when it comes to just who the perpetrator of this attack was we are starting to get more information from the local media that he's being reported to be thirty six year old man who had just been released from prison yesterday on on monday the twenty eighth some reporting that he was only released one day released. as i say looking into that to try and establish exactly how he was able to carry out this attack and what the motivations were but belgium is no stranger

when it comes to terrorist attacks and attacks it is similar vein to this one if we look back to just last year in august of twenty seventeen two soldiers were attacked by a man wielding a machete they were just there were also other isis inspired or isis claimed attacks involving police officers in both october and twenty. eckstein and the reason that there was such a there is such a visible police and military pleasant presence on the streets of belgium is the suicide bombing attack of the twenty second of march twenty sixth enough when three suicide bombers detonated devices in both the brussels main airport. on the brussels underground metro system killing thirty two civilians there so the very latest as we have it three people have been killed two of them police officers one of them a passer by as a gunman opened fire in we also understand that two of the police officers have

been wounded officials are saying now that the the attacker was killed at the scene shot dead by police officers ok thanks ed piece that was artie's peter all of. america is split again and not just along republican and democrat party lines because this time it's about one word spygate the term was used by the u.s. president donald trump to refer to the planting of an alleged mole in his election campaign by the intelligence services the department of justice describes that person as an informant so is it just semantics will takes a look. there are many out there who would and do call into question donald trump's business process but there's no denying the guy is a branding machine and his labels have a tendency to work like gangbusters little mark you know little mark he's a lion ted and you know that's his name we can't have men rocket men sick puppy shooting rockets all over the place through kid hillary crazy very he's crazy is

a bit but you know he does it with terms ladies hashtag where the buzz word is spreading like wildfire he came up with this one to remind anyone who follows his twitter which is everyone that the f.b.i. may have spied on his campaign through a confidential informant but that sounds all official and is definitely not scary or catchy q trump we now call it spygate. spygate adding a gate at the end makes it so much better doesn't it watergate deflate gate russia gate priceless and according to some anonymous sources that spoke with the a.p. terms choice of the word spy was not an accident he allegedly picked the term believing it to be more sinister and likely to be picked up by the media and if that's true boy was he right the revelations of the obama era political targeting grow more ominous by the day claims the f.b.i. may have been spying on his campaign he's kind of upset with me read an article in

the new york times seems to feel that there was a mole or a spy in this campaign ok no surprise that fox picked up and ran with trump's phrasing but seriously it's common knowledge that if a toddler is throwing a tantrum you simply don't give them the attention they clearly want the fake scandal the transcript for us in the media this week as a name when we're not going to repeat this morning it has tweets to go with it which i am not going to read because reading those tweets is what he wants us to do three even enjoy get m.s.n. b.c. could have been a shining beacon of rationality for the rest of the media to look up to and not give trump exactly what he wanted but no. president trump has seized on this new branding effort to discredit the discredit the russia investigation i don't really know where yeah spygate and it just went on from there after running out of steam either supporting or contradicting trump claims little hint either way it still works for trump they want on spending air time defecting the semantics at

play here we give you the great debate of informant first by what's your reaction first to the tweet and second to the distinction between a spy term on the president is using an informant there one in the same a confidential informant is someone who was informing confidentially in other words spying you may call this person a confidential informant that's perfectly fine right but what if it's a spa funnily enough and a breakdown of the coverage of trump's latest phrase by the washington post we were mentioned as having not picked up on it you still haven't said what this whole time i haven't thought it ok well then spygate spygate spygate can we move on now well the individual at the center of the spygate scandal is cambridge university professor stephan how he was allegedly collecting information on several of trump's aides they were suspected of having links to the russian government something they deny where the information was reportedly used to stir up the trump russia

collusion probe we discussed the legal and media analyst line it's amazing how they focus on the word to spy versus informant when in fact the real question is what is the role that this gentleman was involved in what was mr helper. who cares is he a spy what do you mean by that they also go through these great graphics of how many times you used the term and and did he needed in this context the same thing happened when trump used the term wiretap they said there was no wiretapping and they technically were correct because they were focusing on the the age old wiretapping of your verses surveillance and the like i mean are they that serious did they miss the point the point is not whether this gentleman that by the way was

outed by the media the question is not whether he technically falls under the the definitional rubric of spy vs informant question is what was he doing there in the first place why was mr trump the subject of this type of directed intelligence scrutiny in the first place. i recently set to be led by an interim procure a pain prime minister that after you're a skeptic coalitions bid to governments the railed by the italian president and the head of the league party one of the members of the coalition thinks that this may have been due to pressure from brussels so here's a short recap then of what happened to little bit approved all the proposals for the ministers did not approve the name of the minister of economy but one can say you know to a minister with his name goofy pluto donald duck because he has not approved.
