good guys all so soon she is beating so rockstar. i don't know why that accent ended up being my grandfather. to go to prison here's some more hopeful news a massive nationwide prison strike is set to start aug twenty first the prisoners will be demanding more humane living conditions access to rehabilitation sentencing reform and the end of modern day slavery. i. am on prisoners always with the me me me me me you want to not pay a dollar a minute for a phone call to your loved ones and you want to not be a modern day slave. seriously though we have millions of people locked up in this country we have the most prisoners per capital and the most prisoners total meaning by dictionary definition undeniably you can be right wing it doesn't

matter this is an undeniable fact the united states of america is the largest prison state to have ever existed in the history of the planet ever and the best thing we've found to do with these people is force them to sell made in america labels on victoria's secret clothing that was made in guatemala really. seriously that's the kind of thing they're forced to do and now there's going to be a massive strike to fight back against this the actions will take the form of the worst strikes sit ins boycotts and hunger strikes yeah which which might. although they could they could make it difficult for us to continue our endless wars since the several prison industry produces a hundred percent of all military helmets and many of the war supplies and other equipment in california inmates are also serving as firefighters but who cares if

they go on to work strike wildfires are only all over california. and for those of you who don't live in california is there like a. sucks for all those surfers opponents to. wait until all the other condo is go up in flames all right not so funny anymore is it now a confluence of prison industrial complex inmate abuse with climate change has created a perfect storm that will ruin your biannual holy moley guacamole night. who's laughing now to learn more about this at incarcerated workers dot org we have to go to a quick break but i have live comedy shows coming up in denver and boulder colorado you get tickets and so appreciative of god for god also you can really hear the r.c.c. . because that is all right. thank you.

lou. that is. crazy conspiracy they're sick they're all worthless throw him under the bus forget about the back of the bus just love the love of the us because we want rush limbaugh wonder bread and fake news so you die that's american.

seemed wrong but old old just don't hold. anything that is yet to shape our disdain comes to educate and engage with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. when a loved one is murder it's natural to seek the death penalty for the murderer i would prefer it be illegitimate death penalty just because i think that's the fair thing the right thing research shows that for every nine executions one convict is found innocent the idea that we were executing innocent people is terrifying there's just no really hasn't been that we want even many of the times families want the death

penalty to be abolished the respect to get people here is because that's what murder victims' families want that's going to give them peace that's going to give them justice and we come in and say. we've been through this this isn't the way. welcome back i'm not going to turn now to africa the cradle of civilization and if you look at how america treats africa it's pretty clear that we hate cradles we can't stand of god for some good things and we see a cradle we need to exploit its natural resources immediately our country's most recent assault on africa involves perpetuating and engaging in secret wars here now to explain is our senior dude was secrets john of o'donnell.

yeah that's the latest from the u.s. covert war front in africa well which country talking about somalia kenya where uganda chad morocco tunisia. nigeria senegal tanzania because we guide active military presence and all of on. the others. i'm not really sure why you're getting about hands to us military adventurism on yet another continent lee lee is the obvious that on in just it's his. military spokespeople have made it clear that the american special ops role in africa is limited to advising and assisting and who among us couldn't use some good advice in

this crazy crazy war her world. maybe if i got some i never would have invested all my money into the failed product launch of extras slutty olive oil. to our beds of all apparently everybody prefers their olive oil. well i know my oil sleeping with other people is gross but john the notion that the u.s. military is just advising in africa is. why why why do you say that because for more than five years green berets navy seals and other commandos have been operating under an obscure authorization that allows them to both plan and control missions an average joe or because quote it's less we are helping you and more you are doing our bidding said one active duty green beret officer with reason experience in west africa as he described the programs carried out under

a legal authority known as section one twenty seventy. yes. yes to all of the things you just know what the hell is section one thousand and seventy it's a perfectly benign super her. authorization their funds are classified programs we're averaging government alone how units of their militaries for american special ops teams they use as surrogates to hunt and kill our enemy combatants for us now. you know how the saying goes better to have your hand of the puppet than for the puppet to come to life in the middle of the night while you're sleeping and strangle you know that. what looks saying is that well i i don't know or a squirrel whispered into my ear underneath the bridge one time. these cover wars are an abomination it is anybody being held accountable what is congress doing well

maybe a foreign policy expert senator lindsey graham again. shed some light on the situation i didn't know there was a thousand troops in niger i didn't know there was a thousand troops in niger. perhaps is not the most. look this military for the average guy is a stance of late a fight extremist groups but it's really another clear instance of us empire perpetuating endless war for profit for money we at least deserve to know about these things. i mean. agree oh that's that's probably why ninety's all rock band weezer recently covered the song africa by toyo i mean everybody thought it was a weird choice for them to do that but they're actually trying to let the world

know of. the u.s. military is a shill that is there nothing goes aging good thursday and. i think you might have run a little much and that's one of those. corporations want to claim everything is their own intellectual property and can't be touched by anyone else even when it could cost the lives of millions for more on this raging controversy we go to redacted correspondent naomi. d.n.a. testing it's not just for finding out which races you can make jokes about with impunity anymore it has a medical application to it's extremely useful in identifying and preventing reading terry illnesses. but i'm obviously more interested in the jokes.

around. fifty percent caucasian twenty percent some kind of brown and ten percent home this. could have looked in the mirror that d.n.a. testing is a lucrative enterprise where money get in the way of medical benefits the largest genetics company in the u.s. and the biggest shareholder in your spit myriad genetics has been keeping d.n.a. data secret to women of sino tibet and blood to tell this show i mean it says here i have zero point zero zero six percent. you know how sign on to benzo is crazy about that yac mail app for almost twenty five years myriad genetics had a patent on the b.r.c.a. one and two genes which cause a variant of breast cancers some would say panting these genes is controversial but

according to myriad genetics founder mark skolnick. there is no. very very easy to understand it takes time scientists who have taken some time such as their lifetimes to study cancer causing genes have called the patenting of these genes the wrong counterproductive nonsensical after myriad obtains the gene patent in one thousand nine hundred eighty eight it attempted to eliminate b.r.c.a. testing at competing laboratories by sending them cease and desist letters dear do good dear we have reason to suspect you are trying to find a cure for cancer conley return to medical school and obtain a dental degree or we will pursue all available legal and or criminal remedies that may be a political nerd in twenty or thirty nine supreme court justices meaning all of them ruled that it was illegal to pass and something in nature breaking marion's

monopoly on testing and researching the b.r.c.a. genes well i guess that means i'm going to have to throw out my patent for my family specific brand of depression and fury triggered by my neighbor's music my family has passed down this miserable gene from the times of being annoyed by baroque music of the times of you know it by one direction. turn it down. why do i have to be next to the scattering. book. after that supreme court decision the other research facilities started to offer testing for the cancer causing gene for much cheaper than the four thousand dollars marriott charge but myriads database the single best source of data about the connection between b.r.c.a.

mutations and breast cancer remains a trade secret to this. de so now if you want to cure cancer you should be a happy or deliver your spit samples to this web address by midnight twenty seven eight twenty eighteen or all your data will be wiped also seven thousand declines this information should be made public because it could present some printing and save lives like it did for angelina jolie who could afford the four thousand dollars charge and she also got a double mastectomy and remove her ovaries after receiving her myriad results now i is assigned to ben am a terrible driver but. it was. a cease and desist letter. from the sino tibet and anti-defamation league. reporting from washington this is naomi cara bonnie redacting tonight.

here are your headlines from the future in two weeks she'll read the board air marshal swears that if someone doesn't try to kill everyone soon is going to blow up this goddamn plane. i am coming up in september you are a soldier pretty sure we'll be able to bring democracy and freedom to djibouti or somalia or wherever and yes. that's our show but to get more followers at project is a night on twitter you can also check out my new podcast common sense or my bonafide guys. from the roof. or from

america was never great was founded on the rapes and the murder. nothing changed so we said all response to these situations that we're dealing with. people here is sad every bill the day she is just sad people kill each other blood through 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 doesn't work for us it doesn't function for us. this this 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.

i know that and i finally you know not only not set up. you can get out now how does it live on the front. line and used in your view would it be that easy to find a fan that i had in me. plus is that going to be the city to go. look at last time i did upon my little bit of a minute when i found out a little bit that i'd accept that i don't have money going to you know about much a little bit but the more i'm not going to get but it. does this one does apply these rules. some borders of. the sea. you can be no problem.

top stories this hour here on the rebuilding of war ravaged syria is underway and we visit one of the worst hit cities the week to witness the reconstruction process also also. i know michael and a lot of my putin will meet in germany late on saturday with syria on sanctions post on the agenda. oh my god let me miss it you got cut now fighting that battle on the part of the candidates to palestinians were killed during a protest in the gaza strip by demonstrators attempted to break through the border fence with israel.

and moments after ten am on saturday. here and moscow this is donte international know very well we'll continue. the syrian army reestablishing control of the country a new war is being fought against the destruction that was recruited by militants and terrorists the rebuilding of key infrastructure is under way and here on the program we travel to syria to witness the recovery efforts and. much of the city of aleppo is still in ruins reviving it to its former glory is a task of gargantuan proportions and of immense political and economic importance the citadel of aleppo has become the symbol of the city's resistance.

but aleppo is much more than just a maze of antique streets and attractions from history books. the militants are stolen computer units with chips for the machines they destroyed the factory on purpose they wanted to damage syrian industry as a home and specifically in the street in aleppo reviving this that. would. see one rebel control of this area. and feed and basically very dysfunctional hunker. down want to be immense but now that the former industrial hub is slowly getting back on track things are

finally looking up for the people of alaska. two years ago during the war we couldn't even open our shops the shelling snipers were everywhere you couldn't live under such circumstances we cover the roof of the building back then so that we could take cover it was unbearable we took shelter for about half an hour whenever the shelling started we just locked ourselves in here thank god now we can work peacefully day and night we just hang around. just like the good old days the under joe a little the atmosphere is really good around here the weather is nice everybody is feeling safe and it's only getting better you can see getting better day by day lanham up let them i was lucky enough not to leave my home high and this is the district the rebels couldn't get to at the time there was a blockade once but it was firmly lifted now saying god things are better despite all those things we've been through we're no better up on one of them when you know

it's safe and you can return home and if your house lies in ruins you can still fix it the main thing is it's safe now. historically the city of aleppo has been the economic capital of syria and now with the war going on finally some traders are coming back to the streets. of reporting from aleppo in syria. meanwhile the u.s. state department says it will redirect american stabilisation funding plan for syria to other foreign policy efforts washington says though this will not affect its humanitarian assistance program meanwhile saudi arabia has pledged to contribute one hundred million dollars to syrian reconstruction efforts however the money only goes up to the northeast of syria region under the control of u.s. backed kurdish forces that. now while a somewhat programs are cut others do remain in place but the u.s. saying it will stay in syria for some time yet to battle terrorists we're remaining

in syria the focus is the ensuring defeat of isis we still have not launched the final phase to defeat the physical caliphate this is actually being prepared now and that will come at a time for choosing but it is coming joshua landis the head of middle east studies at the university of oklahoma says there are multiple competing interests in syria . the united states does not want assad to become too strong there are hoping to keep leverage in order to try to push iran out of the country to get a better deal for the kurds and and of course they're also worried about what's going to happen if they're province where there is very complex negotiations and and russia is at the heart of that so there are many competing agendas in washington and as long as president trump is not spending a lot of money there i think he's happy to keep a few thousand troops if that increases america's leverage the united states does

not want to spend a lot of money and that's quite clear and many people have been complaining bitterly about deaths typically in iraq and other areas that have been quite badly destroyed they've been pressuring a saudi arabia which just said it would spend another hundred million in syria stabilization they've been pushing france and and european countries to try to get them to spend more money rather than washington this has been one of president trump's constant refrain is that others have to pay for this process. a lot of traveling to germany today to meet. the two leaders will discuss a number of pressing issues that's across the pond and right now. joining us here this morning good morning to you dan what is on the agenda. well as was the. visit to germany seems twenty four mrs merkel has visited russia

several times since then most notably back in may many outlets hitting the headlines with these at this meeting questioning who can come out of on top who can get from these meetings is the better negotiates a very much it's a case of reality for miss that mrs merkel and mr putin the two have been forced somewhat close. said together because of a rift between american donald trump and europe over the iran nuclear deal and tariffs and of course additional u.s. sanctions on to russia has become a sort of marriage of convenience the pair have clashed on numerous issues but of course they do also agree on some mrs merkel has said this is a working visit don't expect much from this meeting that has been her message although she did say that the dollar go relationship with russia is necessary to keep communication going not surprising perhaps given the amount of hot topics on

the agenda syria being the one as the country moves from an active battlefield military phase to negotiations about spheres of influence and the interests of various actors mrs merkel said the talks on syria could bring. some progress between the various differences of trump the one it set for that will be one of the topics very much will engender in this meeting. he says his thoughts can enter a meeting on syria between germany france russia and turkey kidneys from that's nice to be well compared that's the reason why there is no date for it yet but we're working on in prepared three meeting of our advisors and afterwards who will decide whether such a meeting makes sense. this meeting is also symbolic for mrs merkel as the one of the unofficial leaders of europe if you will a stalwart as leaders in countries as the u.s. u.k. and france have moved on merkel has remained and maintain the relationship with mr

putin is an opportunity for the russian president as well to make take steps towards ending russia's isolation perhaps winding down of sanctions etc something that russia has been aiming to do over the last few years economic cooperation as well the north stream two pipeline which will enable gas to flow from russia to germany voiding ukraine and. she was well was trumped by criticised merkel and germany for being very reliant on russia being dependent upon russia that is something on which the two leaders have found and will continue to find common cause the last issue of course is ukraine touching upon the peacemaking process there the means because how to move them forward and complete the process of bringing that conflict to a close that as i said earlier as other leaders have come and gone mrs merkel has remained and despite being quite an implacable critic of mr putin on some issues

she has always maintained a cordial relationship with the russian president. the former well we don't know each other well enough but i'm amazed by her ability to listen. this is because there was still so she does know the russian president likes to drink german beer and sometimes there is a possibility that we can make exchanges cause i have also gotten very good smoked fish. angular from time to time since a couple.
