9:30 pm
the up eastern. down one string i don't rightly don't t.v. . greetings and salutations. this week here in america while we enjoy our i tunes and simper lattes crunch our big macs and stress over our normal daily routines you know work eat sleep wash rinse repeat half a world away in the war torn country of yemen thousands gathered on monday in the city of sadat to bury fifty one people including forty children lost their lives after a saudi u.a.e. coalition air strike took out a school bus she isn't more grand but why should why should that make me put down my latte or take off my ear buds us well i mean innocent children now dead for one
9:31 pm
but if that's still not enough how about innocent children now dead thanks to us hardware yes your us tax dollars help pay once again for the killing of innocent kids. how you feel about your petty office politics now. according to hussein al bhakti and other independent journalists working in yemen this interesting piece of grey hardware was allegedly discovered at the scene of the bus strike which later u.s. journalist ben norton researched and discovered to be a piece of the u.s. military industrial complex at its pinehurst norton tweeted it's a u.s. made m k eighty two guided bomb which has been used in previous attacks on yemeni civilians the cage code on the bomb is lockheed martin's yes appears to be another fine american product for killing innocent children around the world brought to you by our good friends at lockheed martin and the pentagon. but not of course if you ask the u.s. military army major army major josh jock's a spokesperson for u.s.
9:32 pm
some superman told box quote we may never know if the munition used was one that the u.s. sold to them we don't have a lot of people when the ground you see. you don't you do have though you do have a lot of weapons salesmen in the boardrooms of the piers so let's start watching the hawks. what do you think there's a. real that would be. the bottom. like you that i got. this. week. well we're going to watch it. now but.
9:33 pm
our so. there is there seems to be a little bit of a double standard here that i see and foreign policy and that if an american weapon lands on innocent civilians we're not response of all for we don't even know we can't keep track of these things which is nonsense i can keep track of my dog with a tie so if you can't keep maybe you should just you know chip your bombs like we do our dogs in my building find them but the thing that strange to me is under that instance like well obviously we need to anything wrong but like if someone uses like nobody well obviously it's you know i mean like there's this idea that even if we have proof that it came from us and we made it and all of the american empire we do no wrong we do no wrong that that's not how empires usually end up out around the spoiler alert as fires everybody if they were observed was a certain six knows that you're going through with your tickets out so you know there are there are basically three. and we don't know we can't prove that this mission is what it is and you're right there hasn't been true forensic analysis to
9:34 pm
say it's mostly been journalists are speculating and doing good research but like the piece really looks that actually matches lockheed martin's m k two guided bomb perfectly i mean like you see little airfoil there so this is that's the lucky part of it that's the piece now when you look at these two things like you could see that that's clearly the. evidence and then and they were saying that the cage number seems like there are certain numbers i mean they come in certain and i mean . the united states and u.s. military manufacturers sell a lot of stuff to saudi arabia as they do they don't understand that like well we don't know of are those because you know what do you just say like what we sell them but we don't know that we will we don't have people on the ground well maybe you should if you're suckling them air to ground missiles all that is what we help them with logistics we help them target we have you know we don't we're not a part of this war in yemen but also initially hoping them do it yeah. but you can
9:35 pm
even trace the sale of these weapons doesn't say look we know that it's not as if we don't know that taxpayer money and all of this lead to saudi arabia or whatever they're buying or not buying from according to an international news back in two thousand and fifteen saudi arabia has required had they had a report of the saudi arabia's request of a huge transfer of air to ground weapons for the u.s. to bolster war stops the proposed sale comparable comprises more than twenty thousand mostly precision guided bombs worth nearly one point three billion including logistical support so yes sold them bombs you said you give them one you're giving them support on the ground you're giving them. what part of that's like you know what. the matter is there's you know that huge order that one hundred billion dollar order included eight thousand and twenty of these m k eighty two five hundred pound bomb so to say like would probably not like you bought it that
9:36 pm
was one of them from other years was interesting to me is where. deranged individual walks into a school here and shoots up a school we immediately say hey you know we need to seriously lock down though do we go out on these what all right well financial results put in gun concert lock that down but what a five hundred pound laser guided. we may we sold but was used to kill kids on a bus that we probably helped them course. those where. when that happens that it's well we don't really have people there are a no no whatever democrat or republican generally no one ever says you know maybe we should actually talk to lockheed martin and put a little gun control of like lockheed raytheon and all that maybe there's just too many missiles in the world they were making too much too many people make too much money off of the death of children in foreign countries around the world i guess is only what happens here that we get outraged or parts of the population to stop
9:37 pm
because it's as. well here in america this week here in the good old u.s. of a c. on odd days of the week we we blame russia even days we blame millenniums this week philadelphia magazine editor and writer stand against in charge those darn kids between the ages of twenty two and thirty seven who have murder of maintenance man male the creamy emotion of oil in eggs and lemon juice that it is apparently putting the fear of god into baby boomers in her piece how millennial killed man not. things to claims that she was alerted to the assassination of sandwich spread because people weren't eating her deviled eggs an apple celery and many salads at picnics that's when she bravely pointed out that scourge called feminism was clearly out to get mayo stating quote my son jake who
9:38 pm
is twenty five utes mayo he's a practical young man who works in computers on a horse macaroni salad he's a good son but you know who isn't as i got child yeah the girl states i also have a daughter she was a women's studies and gender studies major in college naturally she. is which leads the writer to conclude her research by declaring that the only reason for this raging male phobia is a generation's gut level over announcement of the greatest generations condiment of choice. which maybe wonder just how bad is the male market i mean i haven't heard about this and that's what i noticed a very odd thing not only is male the top selling condiment new us sales of managers have consistently risen and their market share increased over the last decade so you're courting to researchers the global man is market rates the value of nine point nine billion u.s. dollars and twenty seventeen and the market is anticipated to reach a value of twelve point five billion u.s.
9:39 pm
dollars by two thousand and twenty three u.s. census data and simon's national consumer survey showed that two hundred seventy four million americans used man they as our managers type salad dressing in twenty seventeen and is projected to increase to two hundred seventy eight and a half million in twenty twenty so minutes the opposite of being murdered by millennialist or anyone else is actually booming and is more popular they catch up oh well i'm sure we could find a way to blame the increase in horseradish sauce sales on the russians tomorrow. yeah so bombs to mamie's love this so what's at the heart of this is that knee jerk reaction in society today we're going to blame somebody blame because if something doesn't go right for me and screws up my life i have to blame the generation of kids blame them for they screwed up man is i mean blamed for this but blame him for by legacy media they've been blamed for the murder of dinner cruises napkins
9:40 pm
running bar running bars of soap sex marriage homeownership one cork's department stores diet i'm sure there's a lot more that establishment media has you know used as a quick way to blame on one you'll see that's just a small list this is the tip of the idea for the mayo the big problem really is this is ridiculous to me. you know we talk about it identity politics but i had no idea that my favorite condiment mayonnaise. was really tight. just so much racial injustice in the world to hang seng the writer also claims that just because something is old and white doesn't mean it's obsolete and that young people are turning their back as she puts it on american culture by not using enough manage which they are using man as i did that's the point but she claims it was sort of forced it upon this is a strange part so first she claims that man is and these terrible recipe is that she is forced these deland the recipes that her mother was forced to learn to be
9:41 pm
told you know to to become an american now are terrible millennial is are respecting our heritage of having to be forced to make terrible food just like everyone else she also claims that mayo is the taylor swift of condiments which i guess means it's worth an inordinate amount of money and is wildly popular and is broken up with often wow. wow there's so much pop culture it resulted in identity condiments is the problem that we have too many options and they always once they want all these foreign things like fear it would serve as you know good. it's just so ridiculous as regards just borrow a business insider to point out that mayo is like as you said. it's the most popular condiment in america everybody loves still so i'm sorry this is not data journalism this is just one person's confession which is apparently not as could have been potatoes teller's used to be. wrote i mean i was there just doesn't see
9:42 pm
the import of the recipe and it is one hundred percent the like bland most basic i mean i'm sorry i grew up with my grandmothers and people during all these recipes in the fifties and. i'm just not understanding most weird idea of a we're supposed to keep making bad food it's this idea like nobody's eating her doubles i guess at a pen everybody is yours many of them i don't like i don't have potato salad left over and i mean that maybe it's is it right i mean to me it's one of those things that yes there's something to be said you want to carry on tradition you want you know it's cool that you see recipes past our generation to generation that's already up to date but you update them and you can just get locked into like well if it's not mayonnaise than the fabric of america is being torn apart guess what the idea is that we're constantly evolve right yeah i mean it's like the idea that if i put a little you know old baby on my potato salad or my macaroni salad someone's going to write i think about how i'm ruining america love the pieces are to go to break
9:43 pm
court watchers don't forget to let us know what you think of the topics we've covered on facebook and twitter. to see our poll shows that are to dot com coming up parties and cold bridges the latest on yet another round of social media censorship another show in stone sits down with even the government to discuss this investigation is into organ trafficking ready to stay true to what the.
9:44 pm
good politicians to do something good to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president of course i'm one of the brits who. have to like to be prosperous like the forecast tree in the morning can people get. interested in the waters of politics. for six. well last week facebook brought us the banning of controversial right wing icon
9:45 pm
alex jones and is in full wars a brand from the social media giant this week it appears that facebook is now swinging its ban stick to the other side of the alternative political spectrum with news that the left leaning south american news network teller sore has recently been suspended from its platform and fact this is now the second time this year tell us or has felt the wrath of facebook censorship game or to dissect is our to correspondent dan cohen welcome. always preserved so i would first go to layout for everybody how did this play out between facebook and tiller so what exactly happened here right will tell us or launched its english page and twenty four team basically to challenge corporate dominated media and provide a platform from for voices from the global south and it done exceptionally well it's. page had five hundred thousand likes and it was doing great coverage across latin america and monday evening around five forty eastern time its site
9:46 pm
facebook page in english was simply removed and they got an e-mail right at the same time saying that your page has been removed for violating the terms of use they sent a message asking for clarification and facebook sent a message back today tuesday saying the engineering department is reviewing the case but facebook at no point ever identified any offending content or post so i reached out to facebook they didn't respond and toe soaring which is are at a loss right now wow that's really fascinating because really friends and you never really do facebook always kind of never really a lot of times what what the reason is and it's sort of six is a i'd like to say this that it's an engineering to the idea given sort of a technical issue but if we it's probably not a technical issue because it does have one of the things that's also rather curious but about. about this is when the account was suspended and what kind of content the account was posting right before the suspension and the case of venezuela
9:47 pm
analysis dot com what do you know about that exactly so this is since august sixth there have been at least three sites to be taken down from facebook the first was conspiracy theorist alex jones and his info war site which kind of had a lot of support from left leaning circles for a variety of reasons then venezuela analysis dot com which is an independently run analysis site that had just posted a scathing critique of western media's coverage of the assassination attempt of venezuelan president nicolas maduro when that was posted then it was taken down so it's very curious timing that i think you know requires some explanation the very least another good journalist should do that you've got to ask you know you guys guess what this seems a bit odd you know is that a glitch because that's always the thing we go back to right it was a good script howitzers original time they took them down over there so there was a big glitch exactly in january of twenty eighteen they said it was it was
9:48 pm
a it was a mistake ok seems to happen speaking of potential interesting mistakes. facebook's also have has another rather curious new partner in deciding what is or is not fake news they could announce that world and they partnered up one of them is the atlantic council a little bit about that interesting combination right so in may facebook essentially outsourced its censorship duties if we can call it that to the atlantic council which is a think tank just a few blocks away from the studio here that's funded by a variety of foreign governments and corporations there are some of the top funders include nato the us state department our very own government charles koch the clinton foundation theocratic gulf monarchies like the you. arab emirates oil companies like chevron exxon mobile weapons manufacturers like raytheon and
9:49 pm
lockheed martin so i mean those are just a few so it's really you know you see who is facebook is partnering with in order to kind of create the agenda and the discourse that we're allowed to see on facebook that that's incredible to me we're not getting a lot of. i mean you talk about a personal pretty you talk about a cesspool of all that's wrong in politics and government today you kind of see them all and there's one big bat that is the sole. but this is a mess over there also and the fact that the state department has given money to that as well really brings up a lot of problems because the government is not supposed to be infringing on first amendment if a private business says we're going to you know we don't want you on our platform that's one thing but if you have like some government linked to that that's dangerous yeah i don't really understand that wire tax money so. i mean i think about think tanks in general which i'll probably get into another show that's not a great conversation about just how bad they are in general but like every going to
9:50 pm
have a tag maybe don't stack it with warmongers and what probably be five like don't people who make war decide what we can say that's an icky place but at the very quickly i just want to is there any idea of like is this going to hold them in what to tell us or a feeling of there's this thing going to just they're just done now on facebook will tell us or is waiting to see what facebook says before they even you know assess that it was definitely an act of censorship or you know maybe ended up being a mistake which it certainly didn't seem that way to doing their due diligence to see what it is but i think for the rest of us you know the question is if it really is an act of censorship who's next and they do so much always great to have. fueled by the needs of the burgeoning fields of medicine and science body snatching your grave robbery was one of history's more gruesome nominates practices that occurred during the eight. an underage victorian era in the united kingdom but just when you'd think we'd left the gruesome to history leave it to the twenty first
9:51 pm
century to outdo the past barbarism in his book the slaughter author of best bit of journalist even gutman delves into the macabre and brutal world of china's organ transplant business and its possible connections to internment camps and killing fields for arrested dissidents sean stone recently talked with government about his controversial book and investigations. in one thousand nine hundred five we had the first reports of the live organ harvesting taking place in the northwest corner of china in an area called shin john which the chinese call shin jiang that is muslim territory it's basically it's very shut off from the rest of the world and. the people who live there are just not genetically chinese at all they're sort of sent they're really central asians are turkic. but they have started experimenting on them essentially in one thousand nine hundred five because it turned out that if you took out organs from someone well they were still alive the organ can be
9:52 pm
transplanted into a new person with without much of a problem or a lot less of a problem the body doesn't fight it's a bit like cutting flowers and running water or something. now. that was the beginning in one thousand nine hundred seven something very unusual happened so you see up till then china's harvesting the organs from executed prisoners right and as much as the world may you know say oh that's so terrible and all the rest the truth is the world doesn't consider that so terrible they think of it as well they're going to these people are going to die anyways and so there is a tendency to sort of write it off at least there wasn't much hysteria about the issue back then. nine hundred ninety seven something unusual happened so i dug this up in my book. a doctor and he lives in europe and i'm not saying where because he has family in china was it a room she hospital he was asked by his superior told him go take blood tests in
9:53 pm
the political prison all right so these are weaker as they're muslim maybe they've gone who knows what crimes they're guilty of maybe just standing on the street going allah akbar you know something like that is it could be very minor. but he goes he has to take the blood test blood types of all these prisoners political. why well because six high ranking chinese communist party congress had just arrived at a major hotel and they were looking for a liver and kidneys. and they wanted healthy people the ideas prisoners aren't regular prisoners the ones who are in death row hard necessarily that healthy they're drug addicts sometimes or they live rough lives political prisoners tend to take care of themselves. so he went in there we had a riot when he tried to take the samples they kept saying you're weaker like us a muslim how can you do this and he was said it's just for your health. now of course it wasn't just for their health those six. chinese communist party countries
9:54 pm
got their organs and they left and in a month there were six more. now that was one little incident back in one thousand nine hundred seventy eight it really could have ended there a little bending of the rules a little corruption at the high levels but china really didn't what happened is that a new group came online if you like as a target of the state i was following gong a buddhist revival movement. and it's at that point to the proud after a year after they start persecuting phone gone in one thousand and nine about two thousand two thousand and one the transplant rates in china go crazy exponentially are shooting up hospital building transplant wings all over the country get it mirrors the detention the mass detention of fallen guard which was about half and right in two million at any given time. because in the
9:55 pm
report i understood that right when a fourteen that congress basically u.s. congress would have reported a lot of your journalism is the basis and cited within it although you're not alone in that but researching this sort of the notion that china reports there are about ten thousand organ donors in transplants per year but meanwhile the real numbers are in the tens of thousand to be enough as high as one hundred thousand. organs being transplanted and the question then becomes is that just all voluntary and obviously your allegation is no that's not what is the basis of saying that we know that this is definitely coming from political prisoners who are either alive or killed in the problem. now that the chinese have bounced around from different arguments for many years they said they didn't even say where these organs were coming from or how they were doing transplants and they sort of just lead people to assume that maybe it was voluntary or something of course there was no history of voluntary donation china at all and then they said ok well we're doing prisoners they cop to the lesser plea if you like we're we are
9:56 pm
we are taking organs from really bad criminals who are executed on our execution grounds by chinese. and so forth. that didn't hold water because the numbers didn't add up there weren't enough criminals being executed even by their own numbers so then they switched to a new argument to say well we're no longer executing criminals for their organs what we're doing is just getting voluntary donations but even if you use their numbers which they're claiming about seven thousand voluntary donations a year that is seven thousand people donating their organs well truthfully even if you were getting say three organs out of each person instead of the seven thousand if you take that seven thousand multiply get up to twenty one thousand you're still not going to get anywhere near those are made up numbers the seven thousand is a number they told they. pulled out of thin air. it isn't often that a scientist that has been so crucial to an endeavor success has been able to
9:57 pm
witness their life's work realize this weekend nasa launched the parker solar probe compared from cape canaveral in florida beaming with fire across the night sky on its way up to our sun the one billion dollar probe will be first the first to fly through the sun's atmosphere the first spacecraft to travel at two hundred sixty five thousand kilometers per hour and the first to bear the name of a living scientist dr eugene parker who was there to see the work he fought so long to be taken seriously about to launch into history and this probe is special for the folks here watching the hawks as well see my eyes myself in tyrrel and the team each have our names saved on a memory card that was included with the with the probe along with over one million others as we take this adventure together and in the words of dr eugene parker let's see what lies ahead that's the rule lies ahead but we know what kind of brad mehldau desertions old has to remember everyone in this world we are not told we love the love so i tell you all i love you i am i robot and on top of the law if
9:58 pm
people are watching those hawks another great day and they are. a murder was never great was founded on the rapes in the murder. nothing changed so we said in. response to these situations that we're dealing with. people get shot every other day she is just people kill each other blood for the killing children. there was just no way that people are going to just sit back and allow children to be shot down by law enforcement. this country
9:59 pm
doesn't work for us it doesn't function for us. this is can't be happening in america we call from the streets we've got to deal with why this is the reason i have to ride like this is the reason. when all is true it's seemed wrong. when all rolls just don't hold. me close to the forget to stamp out disdain he comes to advocate and in danger many equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.
