terrorism specialist jennifer breeden says damascus should go on the offensive in italy. it's not going to be possible to to fight terrorism without going to the terrorist strongholds and that's absolutely necessary we're talking about a group h.t.s. which is an offshoot of al knows or a link to al qaeda so this is a very serious terrorist organization and it's also a terrorist organization that's in a place with a very large civilian population most of these civilians have been displaced are internally displaced because of the war because of other terrorist organizations and so it's crucial that this area be targeted to to undermine these terrorists i think that the concern is whether chemical weapons have been used or whether there have been any such use of chemical weapons because of the large civilian population that has also been terrorized by the strong hold that allen has or offshoot h.t.s. has on this area. the world's biggest election which has been underway in india is

10:19 am
a middle class guy except if you except so i've actually made a decision since i had that conversation then i'm not going to accept corporate pact but i think most americans actually agree that we need to get money out of politics pete buttigieg has promised to give back the money he received from corporations kemal harris has made similar statements but here's the thing perhaps they don't get direct funding from corporations but they have a cozy relationship with super pacs those are political action committees that are not legally required to disclose their donors let's not forget joe biden's wisdom from a few years back lobbyist are bad people special interest groups are not bad people but guess what they're corrosive. people who accept money from them or bad people but it's human nature well it may not be being broadcast on prime time television but many top democrats have a very close relationship with big financial interests take amala harris for
10:20 am
example she has a super pac of her own that is very close with the bank known as citigroup and get tamlyn the bank's managing director even hosted a fundraiser for camilla harris at his apartment as a gesture of friendship kamali even shook hands with his dog pete booed as she she has been hanging out with charles meyer the wall street banking exactly 2 of them have been munching on deli sandwiches kirsten gillibrand seems to be particularly close to big pharma she's already had a fundraiser at the home of a pfizer exec and at this point mark last read the wall street money manager is boasting that he's already met with 10 different democratic candidates at the end of the day candidates need money. the past there was no candidates who didn't come to new york chicago l.a. for money today there are 2 candidates who aren't doing that elizabeth warren and bernie some does yes when the cameras are rolling the democrats want to fight against wall street and stand up for that forgotten american middle class however
10:21 am
behind closed doors they want to get particularly cozy with the big daddies of american finance capital and in the age of social media that's a lot harder to conceal well this goes to show you yet again the breathtaking incoherence of the democratic message keep in mind that many of these boats many if not all are very very wealthy and when you hear people who decry you and rail against big money and we're finding out how they're tapping into silicon valley wall street banks the big money the big money people it goes to show you that they're just like everybody else i'm just a just a lovable progressive liberal trying to get by with a paucity of funds and end if you can help me as we as we fight corporate industrial greed while behind the scenes on the phone say this you can you can kill

10:28 am
to talk about that because one of the things we have talked about over the years and kaiser for a trend we've noticed especially since the financial crisis is dig lobel ization this happens all the time throughout history especially when an empire is falling we see a trend towards d. globalization globalization is a time also marked by the absence of trust people nations don't trust each other trading partners don't trust each other and of course big coin and gold are the 2 trust list currencies out there so the 1st one we're going to talk about is the trade war going on between china everybody has said for years and years that owed china is in control because they have 1 point one trillion dollars in u.s. treasuries and all dumped them and you know this will heart harm the united states trade war may spur china to solve treasuries as yuan tumbles the idea that china would dump its $1.00 trillion of treasuries to retaliate against u.s. tariffs is often dismissed as improbable it is seen as
