a bit with them is a more important narrative to push so they'll ignore facts they'll ignore any information that goes against the narrative they've been running with two or three years now now and they're trying to move to go postal when i say they i mean a democratic party if the russia thing does not work if there is not a viable path to get trump out of office then a switch to the next day and so on and so forth they'll continue this oh process into they can't do it anymore which may be trumps entire time in the white house. just a date set in the morning here in moscow this tuesday thanks to him oscar then kevin out of the rest the team on t.v. this morning wishing you a great tuesday. thanks

guys are sinuses like facing the bell on. these if this is a central plank support diagram is the right stuff to. you know world of big partisan movie lot and conspiracy 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 smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and 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 for watching closely watching the hawks.

there is going. organized force which traditionally plenty of flow has but with all its flaws it's been in the forefront of the. efforts to improve the lives of the general population that's organized labor it's also a barrier to corporate tyranny so it's the one barrier to this vicious cycle going

on which does lead to corporate tyranny. her her her major reason for the concentrated honest fanatic attack on unions and organized labor is they are a democratizing force. generally. and that interferes with the prerogatives of her over those who own and manage inside. i should say said and a union sentiment in the united states among elites is so strong that the fundamental labor organization is the rate of free association which would mean the right to form unions and us has never ratified. but i think the us may be alone

among major side he's never spent. it's considered so far out of the spectrum of american politics it literally has never been considered. her number that the us has a law on very violent labor history his. society. had been very strong about the one nine hundred twenty s. in a period not unlike today it was virtually crushed robert reich. the mincer is a beacon to reconstruct. truth to when

a roosevelt he himself was rather sympathetic to progressive legislation that would be in the benefit of the general population but he had to get it passed so he informed labor leaders and others forced me to do it. what he meant is you go out and demonstrate we're going to protest develop the labor movement. when the popular pressures fish and i'll be able can through the legislation you i am not for a were. killed last definition number live a day and hour which many say three people were being gradually read your man in angeles. probably feel. i prefer that brought out information. so there was a kind of a combination of a sympathetic government and by the mid thirty's very substantial but bitter activism. there were industrial action there were

a sit down strikes which are very frightening to. ownership. have to recognize a sit down straight because just one step before saying we don't need bush says we can run this by yourselves. and business was told to read the business press say in the late thirty's they were talking about the hazard facing industrialists and the rising political power of the masses which has to be repressed things were on hold during the second world war. sure but immediately after the second world war the business offensive began in force. test courtly act. in labor. and the course is and was used for a massive corporate propaganda offensives to attack union. increased sharply during

the reagan years and reagan pretty much told the business world if you want to illegally break urbanizing efforts and strikes go ahead they are in violation of the law and if they do not report for work within forty continue to the ninety's and of course with george w. bush went through the roof by now less than seven percent of private sector workers have unions. the effect is that the usual counterforce to an offensive or highly class conscious business class is dissolved. if you're in a position of power you want to maintain class consciousness for yourself but a limited everywhere else you know back to the nineteenth century in the early days of the industrial revolution and you know that state's working people were very

conscious of this they in fact overwhelmingly regarded that wage labor as not very different from slavery to the different only in that it was temporary effect of such a popular idea that was a slogan of the republican party. well that was a very sharp class consciousness in the interests of power and privilege it's good to drive those ideas out of people's heads you don't want them to know that they're an oppressed class so this is one of the few societies magicks don't talk about class in fact the national class is very simple one who gives the orders who follows and that basically defines class it's more nuanced and complex but that's basically it.

the public relations industry the advertising industry which is dedicated to creating consumers it's a phenomenon developed in the freest countries in britain and the united states and the reason is pretty clear it became clear by a say a century ago that it was not going to be so easy to control the population by force too much freedom and one. labor going to sing parliamentary labor parties in many countries women started to get the french as and so on she had to have other means of controlling people and it was understood and expressed they have to control them by control of. beliefs and attitudes well one of the best ways to control people in terms of attitudes is what the great political economists they're stunned blind called fabricating consumers.

if you can fabricate want to. make obtaining things that are just about within your reach the essence of life they're going to be trapped into becoming a consumer's. and you read the business press say nine hundred twenty s. it talks about the need to direct people to the superficial things of life like fashionable consumption and that will keep them out of our hair. you find this doctrine all through progressive intellectual thought but walter lippmann the major progress of intellectual of the twentieth century. he wrote famous progressive essays on democracy in which his view was exactly that the public must be put in their place so that the responsible men can make decisions without interference from the be willed it heard. see straight back to madison

on to the polls memory and so on and the advertising industry just exploded. with with this as its goal fabricating consumers. and it's done with great sophistication. many whilst down. as one of the last known while very singular. whom are aware of the kind. of the ideal is what you actually see need to did. we're let's see teenage girls they have a free said area afternoon all go walking in a shopping mall not the library or somewhere else. the idea is to try to control everyone to turn the whole society into the perfect system. perfect system would be a society based on

a diet of pair the pair is you and your television set or maybe now you in the internet. in which that presents you with what the proper life would be with trying to get education and you spend your time in f. . for gaining those things which you don't need you don't want maybe to throw away . but that's the measure of a decent life. what we see is in say advertising on television if you've ever taken an economics course you know that markets are supposed to be based on informed consumers making rational choices well if we had a system like that a market system in a television ad would consist of say general motors putting up information saying here's what we have for sale a samba an ad for a car is an ad for occurs in football hero you know an actress in the car doing

some crazy thing like going up a mountain or something the point is to create uninformed consumers who will make irrational choices that's what advertising is all about. and when the same institutions p.r. . system runs elections they do it the same way. they want to create an uninformed electorate which will make irrational truisms go off against their own interests and we see it from the advertising industry for the best marketing campaign and was reported here if you go to the international business press executives were euphoric you know they said we've been selling candidates marketing candidates like you know toothpaste ever since reagan and this is the greatest achievement we have i don't usually agree with sarah pail and when

she mocks the but she calls the hopi changey stuff she's right first of all obama didn't really promise anything but that's mostly illusion you go back to the campaign rhetoric and take a look at it is very. little discussion of o.o.c. issues and for very good reason because public opinion on poesy is sharply disconnected from what the two portie leadership and their financial backers want. poesy more and more it is focused on the private interests that funded campaigns. it was a public being marginalized joined me everything on the alex salmond and i'll be speaking to get off of the world of politics all this less i'm show business i'll see of an. officer and the toyota to get up off the ground in the office or begin to pay him

down. and then freeze on the sounds of an mit grown man with misleading essentially the officer who. threw his or john in the individual twisted away from the officer. out of his crib. he obviously did a kind of lunge for the web in one's midst and then when it happened on trace one as i have sustained didn't hit him i never saw any contact between the two any kind went back to where they were so the answer is back here there try again fifteen feet apart at this point and that's when the officer pulled out his gun in a minute on three.

the leading political scientist martin guillen's came out with a study of the relation between public attitudes and would mostly what he shows is that about seventy percent of the population has no way of influencing. but they might as well be and some other country. and the population knows. what it's led to is a population that angry frustrated and hates institutions. and it's not acting constructively to try to respond to. his popular mobilization and activism but in very self destructive directions. taking the form of unfocused anger attacks on one another and on vulnerable targets that's what happens in cases like this. it is corrosive of social relations but that's the point the point is to make people to hate and fear each

other and look at only for themselves and don't do anything for anyone else. one place you see it strikingly is on april fifteenth. april fifteenth is going to measure the day if they are taxes of how democratic a society is a different the if a society is really democratic april fifteenth would be a day of celebration it's a day when the population gets together decides to fund the programs and activities that they have formulated agreed upon which could be bettered that station celebrated another way it is needed states. it's a day of mourning it's a day in which some alien power you know has nothing to do with you is coming down to steal your hard earned money and you do everything you can they keep from doing it. and that is a kind of

a measure of the extent to which at least in popular consciousness democracy is actually functioning. not her attractive picture. be . the tendencies that we've been describing within american society unless there are reversed it's going to be an extremely ugly society i'm a society that's based on adam smith's final maxim you know all for myself nothing for anyone else. a society in which normal human instincts an emotion of sympathies or their e.b. to a sport in which they're kind of like driven out. that society is

so ugly i don't even know who'd want to live in it i wouldn't want my children to. give the society is based on control by private wealth it will reflect the values that in fact does reflect. a value that is green and that lead to maximize personal game at the expense of others and the society has made a small society based on that principle as a good way to control. a global society based on that principle is headed for massive destruction. and i don't think we're. smart enough to design in any detail what a perfectly just and free society would be like i think we can give some guidelines and more significant we can ask how we can progress in that direction.

john dewey the leading social philosopher in the late twentieth century he argued that until all institutions are under participatory democratic control we will not have a functioning democratic society. as he put it policy will be the shadow cast by business over society. it's essentially true. where there are structures of authority domination and hire somebody gives the orders somebody takes them as they are not self-justifying who they have to justify themselves and their burden to prove to me.

will if you take a close look usually find they can't justify themselves if they can't we ought to be dismantling. trying to expand the domain of freedom and justice but dismantling that form of illegitimate authority and in fact progress over the years we'll thankfully recognize as progress has been just that the way things change is because lots of people are working all the time and you know they're working in their communities it out are movements which are going to make changes and that's the way everything has ever happened in history. takes a freedom of speech. one of the. real achievements of american society that's the first in the world in that it's not the bill of rights it's time that the constitution freedom of speech issues began to come to the supreme court in the early twentieth century. the major contributions came in the one nine hundred sixty

s. one of the leading ones was a case of going civil rights movement well but then you had a mass popular movement which was demanding rights. refusing to back down and in that context the supreme court did establish a pretty high standard freedom of speech or it takes a women's right to women also began identifying oppressive structures refusing to accept them or he'd go their people to join with them well that's her right to return. to a non-trivial extent if also spent a lot of my life in activism a militant doesn't show up publicly but you know. terribly good it was not the greatest organizer i think that we can see quite clearly some very very serious defects in our. culture and. which are going to have to be corrected by operating outright that is commonly accepted i think we're going to have to find

ways but it has. been the activists or people who have created the rights that we enjoy. in the army carrying out proces based on information that they're receiving but also contributing to the understanding remembers are separate process. to try to do things you learn you learn that with the world it's like that feeds back to the understanding of how to go on . still the freest world. government has very limited capacity to coerce corporate business may try to coerce but there are mechanisms. so. there's a lot to be done if people are going to struggle for their rights as they've done in the past and can win many victories. community.

close friend for many years later cowards in. to put it in his words that what matters is the countless small deeds of unknown people who lay the basis for the significant events that enter history. there's a ones who have done things in the past the angelus do it future. you

lose. lose. lose. lose. lose. with. with. with with. with. her.

extra. break said count down on l.t. . and i wanted to do a shout out to get a former soldier that i. honestly had left. those of us of. the bush. years and make them say i was there

a few seconds and say. how much do you who continue to do the passage that they were for isn't and never was not imposed by now. you know if i can say that i own for example all the brooklyn bridge and i and i sell a bond against the brooklyn bridge i sell a billion dollar multibillion dollar bond against the brooklyn bridge twelve actually somebody's going to come when i say ok we'll deliver them the brooklyn bridge and i say why can't i have a deed just like in the two thousand a sub prime crisis there were no deeds for the houses that goldman sachs packard says collateralized mortgage obligations and then sold into the pension market and the wholesale derivatives market where they didn't have the deed they were just making stuff up by pulling rabbits out of their hat and selling that as a yielding security to pension funds but there's nothing fair.

the video of last friday's mass shooting. we put the issue all of the media. control. now listen to me a favor if you see somebody shooting and killing people shouted down you're talking about people will fully blinded from these things willfully blind but you're not talking about prevention how will this prevent it. again now the speaker of the house of commons blocks a third vote. on the russian.
