glory like. the you know the slogan still get out that. you don't really feel like you the big get it. and then. the guy just came over to miss all the good judge of his book. so we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy on sunday shouldn't let it be an arms race based on often scary dramatic developments only i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical of time time to sit down and talk.

this is a comedy show where americans in america covering american news are now called foreign agents. so the dow jones has seen its worst december since nine hundred eighty no one is buying anything for the holidays from a company other than amazon mom and pop shops have just resorted to selling mom and pop. and worker wages are so stagnant they give lindsey lowe hands career a run for its money. to get to the heart of what's going on here let's turn to any if then statement remember if then statements in like elementary middle school. you

know one day your jaded teacher would walk in and be like class we're learning if then statements works like this if tommy is a good looking man then he is a pedophile all right. below the exam write it down write it down. so here's ours for today if any quality then instability. so do we have extreme inequality he asks knowingly. this is from nomi prins of tom dispatch if you really want to grasp what's been happening consider that between two thousand and nine and twenty seventeen the number of billionaires whose combined wealth was greater than that of the world's poorest fifty percent fell from three hundred eighty to just eight and in the us it's even worse it's three three doods so do we have inequality we have more inequality than

what bron james is high school basketball team all right. no no one is really passing the rock to poor danny live shits. with the rockets the rock. trough brags about how low the unemployment numbers are and they are indeed low however those numbers are filled with people who have stopped searching for work and people who have jobs remember when wal-mart would cost having a canned food drive for their own employees. if you work at wal mart and you can't afford thanksgiving dinner that doesn't mean we should all donate cans it means walmart socks. a really. amazon probably would have a food drive for their warehouse employees except those workers aren't allowed to stop to eat solid food. instead amazon is patented. a device that pumps nutrients

into the workers' rectally all right rectally yeah yeah. you know you can choose to take the bar form but it's truly uncomfortable it's not i know. my favorite part of that triple threat. but one of the force of. all of this is to say we have crazy any wallaby and it leads to crazy instability here's the top one percent share of total u.s. income now this peaked right there over there that was before the great depression all right which despite popular belief was not great. could top four hundred u.s. earners have hugely decreased how many millions they bring home every year now see this peak over here you know that peak that happened right after the two

thousand and eight collapse are right or right before right before the two thousand a collapse that's what caused it or write that book which if you don't recall our justice department prosecuted nobody for that they're still looking for the guy they're still looking you know any day now and the day they have however put up this wanted poster in the justice department so. they're going to crack this any minute. so what has caused this utterly awful inequality well there are several culprits one is bill clinton's gutting of the glass steagall act another is the federal reserve quantitative easing which is basically a massive giveaway to wall street while main street stands there with our in our hands or or. another cause is the crushing of the unions are right here is the percent of income the top ten percent take home as compared to union membership in america. you see how they separate they're like

when union membership goes down the rich get a lot richer because the workers have no power to stop the ruling elite from stealing everything and right now yeah. right do you know membership is at a record low around ten point seven percent this level of inequality causes people to protest and to vote outside of the normal establishment candidates this can produce great leaders looking to help decrease inequality like jeremy corbyn in the u.k. or lopez obrador in mexico or it can lead to fascistic anti immigrant nationalist tendencies like it has in france brazil the united states. and others like go away the good ole us of a is there to fight the leftist and prop up the fascists. in terms of the recent election of outwardly racist

president balsa narrow in brazil which the wall street journal endorsed journalist marcello zero wrote the cia has its fingerprints on brazil's election and in the ukraine the u.s. has been partnering with and funding neo nazi groups you know the nice thing about partnering with neo nazi groups is when you stay at their house they almost always have clean sheets for you you. might have some holes in them but you know better than nothing better there's a real lot of problem in the clan community right on the other hand truly left wing leaders like jeremy corben must be undermined by the ruling elite and the media those elite own outlets like b.b.c. in the washington post can't get enough of claiming jeremy corbett is an anti-semite and of course our lefty bernie sanders was carefully undermined to make sure he lost the twenty sixteen primary. in case you forgot the new york city's

board of elections admitted in court that it broke the law purging two hundred thousand voters not sure if you recall that so what did we get instead of the democratic socialist we've got a racist nationalist so let's go back to our if that means if inequality then instability if instability then popular uprisings if popular uprising then either lefty leaders or neo fascists if the us involvement then me all fascists we all connected to not me who'll cause me all quickly was the it was ok.

thank you welcome welcome i'm really can always take the news from behind where you start off with exciting news everybody the department of homeland security put out a press statement last week and on the official government website the first paragraph began quote d.c.s. is committed to building the wall and building wall quickly. because they are so focused on stopping desperate refugees for entering the country by building a wall that they don't have time for things like the letter a and before wall. in fact in order to save money for wall they have gotten rid of all articles at da jess. and. even articles of clothing have been eliminated that is true that's a reason for. that was last week. the department of homeland security website

continues if we are not replacing short outdated and ineffective wall of was similar the wall. instead under this president we are building a wall that is thirty feet high backed prior to our president drawn taking office we have never built while that. this is. this is so true we have never built a wall that honda and we have never spoke so good or don't you ask. the man she did it was congress. could have said it better myself. this press release by the department of homeland security just makes me so proud so proud to be an illiterate. we've been under represented government for years. on the same day this d.h.s.s.

release came out trumps department of education put out this which appears to be. a drawing of a cat labeled as a dog. the so yes. so yes the republicans are idiots but the democrats this week also stood up and declared they are not going to be out here fighting. no they said what you think our brains don't stink it's day four so your status. here's what happened as you know the us backed attack on yemen is catastrophic eighty five thousand children under five have already starved to death if the bombing continues it could become the worst famine the world has seen in a hundred years the u.s. senate just recently voted to withdraw all u.s. support for the attacks with some loopholes the house arrest. however added on an

amendment to the farm bill that forbid the house from voting on yemen and the farm bill barely passed with the help of five democrats one of them being collin peterson from minnesota he was asked why he voted to prolong the war in yemen and he said it didn't belong in the bill then the reporter says it's do you have any thoughts about the war in yemen pietersen responded i don't know example you about it. look our noble congress men and women are doing their job as best they can the best way to do it is to remain ignorant on the things that will make them feel kind of gross. so of representative right. so of representative peterson reads about yemen then he'll feel really be about voting to continue the genocide but if he reads instead. of golfing magazine of his choice. it is much easier for him to cast his vote and his job is to cast votes

so thank you collin peterson for bringing the uninformed leader america hoped you'd be. yes thank you thank you thank you no thank you oh thank you thank you also garnering much attention this week is the senate's passing of a large criminal justice a bill that's right. for a little justice will this bill gives judges more discretion discretion when the sentencing drug offenders and boosts prisoner rehabilitation efforts it reduces the life sentence for drug offenders with three convictions for twenty five years and it would affect only federal prisoners who make up less than seven percent of the country's prison population. ten percent. you know i'll just add this to the list of things i'm ten percent excited about right we're. she

included tubing down a river with my aunt. shopping for a couch on a hot day and anything new and i am putting it out. and now i can add criminal justice bill that impacts a few thousand people i mean and look how surprised we be isn't this the best we can hope from congress that they do ten percent of their job that's a big step that's a big step bob i mean eighty seven members of the senate all agreed on this bill and only nineteen of those said i don't know a damn thing about it's. huge i can't wait for next year i've heard rumors they're going to address ten percent of climate change what exactly are these guys. ninety percent of us will go extinct. but only ninety but you know who doesn't do anything ten percent coca-cola all right they keep it a hundred billboards have appeared around germany showing brands like coca-cola

nutella taking a strong stance against the right wing and nationalist party. unfortunately the billboards were not put there by the corporations they were put there by activists and then forced coke and the others to actually take a political stance and say wow no put those we agree. not see. in honor of this we hear every day to the night we've put up some billboards here in the days since capital here in the us to support our brave and loving corporations here's a lockheed lockheed martin join us in supporting starving children in yemen let me rephrase that join us in supporting the act of starving children. and here's johnson and johnson baby powder last week it was revealed that the baby powder has a special this in. it and that executives knew for decades that it was

a problem and could be causing cancer so here's a billboard we help them help with when it first arrived on store shelves many people asked us whether baby powder was a powder used to create babies. we told them no it is not however we can now proudly announce it is exactly the opposite. thanks to you want to actually contest i got my free weekly podcast called common sense and on i tunes spotify in stature and get the redactor the night podcast called moment of clarity also free every single week whether i've ever had the our our. you know world is big part of new things. and conspiracies it's time to wake up

to dig deeper to hit the stories that made stream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the bad shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. right. welcome back to the own debt has now reached a record one point four six five trillion more than jumbling since the end of the great recession just a few years ago over forty four million americans are currently shackled with college debt here now to explain the feasibility of student debt forgiveness is seen. financial analyst john f. o.

donnel. of the student debt forgiveness well over there look like. it would look like a disaster wrapped in a tsunami engulfed in a bedding thoroughly dipped in a blue bonnet played with the right amount of clusters of. sprinkled on top of it all. so bad you're saying. you're going bad but john is it true that student debt forgiveness would actually it would benefit our economy a lot no at absolutely not i mean according to a comprehensive report by the levy economics institute of bard college the policy of debt cancellation could boost real g.d.p. by an average of eighty six billion to one hundred eight billion per year and peak job creation adds roughly one point two million to one point five million new jobs

per year. how is that i'm going to come out of a. oh oh i thought you meant the overall economy of me. you see i don't have any student debt because my dad am paid for the entirety of my out in-state tuition that lack of student debt is one of the only pieces of social capital i have to work over those less fortunate than me and i'll be god damned if i'm going to give enough. oh you want to have a kid i cheer that you don't or an adequate seizes a person hell yeah. plus women disproportionately hold two thirds of all student debt i'm assuming that lowers their self-esteem and low self-esteem ladies that's my exclusive dating demographic. i'm not going to let the government mess up dysfunctional codependent relationships very may. place. personal

reservations aside how could the government pull this off. ninety percent of these loans are held by the department of education so the federal government can just forgive that debt and take the financial hit which would only increase the budget deficit by one half of one percent of g d p g p d which is trivial. it's a no and what about the ten percent of student loan debt that's privately held you do realize if the government does this and i still want companionship i would have to finance one of those high in real dollars. weeks then a bully is going to come to life and murder me in my sleep was you know you're a kid. that for the record if a real doll somehow anthropomorphize and kill you in your sleep i would care and we'd have a little party here at the studio to tell your story. really that some of the ways

that we've been up here oh oh thank you i'm so proud of in fact of pride in fact i'll find a one time massive payment of private debt makes sense if it's rolled out at the same time that public colleges and universities are made to which i'm free so nobody else could get thrown into the student debt trap there well it's a good read. was the and i mean there's already some forms of public college in tennessee new york california the yetzer effect or if it wonderful i mean look people in america should just be happy they are not millennial in china who are using new to secure loans if the repayments aren't made on time the money lenders threaten to leak those naked selfies to the individual's family and friends. that's reactively that's really yeah it is i do the opposite actually i give people my nudes here with

a lonely night. the was. on the phone with the c.f.o. i was a half what i have asked was. i'm going to have to help my runners with a brillo pad. you probably remember the whole fight over net neutrality which the f.c.c. decided to crush free and open the internet well now they're going to crush free and open text messaging that's right say goodbye to text neutrality for more on this here's our truth bomb rejected correspondent natalie mcgill. many years since being at c c voted to get rid of net neutrality and if you're

watching this on a mobile device it's a miracle you've made it this far without any signs of buffer. done yet it spoke to says it is. watching them throttling your internet wasn't enough for the. now they're coming for your tax because the trumpet ministration just killed net neutrality for tax the message is this great classifies your tax as an information service rather than a telecom service with your messages were protected from discrimination and it's the latest abomination from have c.c. chair. a former for rising lawyer who after repealing net neutrality added insult to injury with a video about all the things we can still do online after the repeal is excuse for this movie is that it will give wireless carriers the way the snobs band tax

without fear of breaking the law and this will robo tax from taking over phone for way of robo calls half the problem is what kind of tax these wireless carriers consider spam and we already got a few hints when sprint nextel block attempts the voice campaign that would raise money for sir. i've heard of the haiti earthquake in twenty two. or three years earlier when for rise and blocked a voluntary text message program from abortion rights they were all pro-choice america because a rising refused to approve any program that seeks to promote an agenda or distribute content that in its discretion maybe soon as the controversial savory to any of our users relieve arises. a woman's right to choose is an unsavory. unsavory is the chain letter type from my aunt carole that is international nice day send us the twenty people who are nice as are going straight to hell you're not

going to last that but if the fight for free and fair internet has taught us anything we know who will get blocked activist groups that rely on short code text messaging services to organize this includes groups like oppenheim wall street who use texting services to communicate with protesters or immigration rights activists who relied on it to advocate for a dream or. if you're one of those people that still believe the f.c.c. was trying to do us a favor consider that if they had left alone wireless carriers like the rise in would still be able to filter out spam that's a just for consumers movie s.c.b. when looking for a solution to a problem they already zol and created an entirely new problem in the process. just like who ever thought it was a great idea to train cats how to use the toilet but for you now you just create

a competition for the bathroom in the morning on your way to wire. the activists to protest the corporate greed of these telecom companies represent are facing yet another digital roadblock and while platforms like facebook messenger or whatsapp are ways. around this it assumes you live in an area with reliable white by. or that you're fine with the fact that facebook scans the photos and links you send on messenger. and that facebook own whatsapp ok if i'm going to have any autonomy over my tax i'm at least awaiting my own stupid ass chain letter tax ok say ok i am still here. the but the but.
