tv   Redacted Tonight  RT  December 28, 2019 4:30pm-5:01pm EST

4:30 pm
few months ago really the only 2 journalists looking into it were david de graw writing for his own website and a single forbes article which was co-written by the economist who discovered the unaccounted adjustments mark skidmore and i discovered i don't mean skidmore like found a dusty shoe box in donald rumsfeld's old desk underneath you know the baby skeletons underneath the baby skeletons. i mean he took a minute to look at the defense department's own inspector general's report so really he does bother to look at the thing that was designed for the public to look at. that's what he did anyway add to the redacted tonight after so it came out it got hundreds of thousands of views my true to go articles on the same topic also went viral and so did that forbes article yet despite thank you yet despite. 'd the display all of that still not a word from congress not
4:31 pm
a word from the hacks at your mainstream media outlets but then just a few weeks ago something significant was said by the deputy secretary of defense patrick shanahan it happened in a quiet news dump in a press conference that actually actually began like this deputy secretary of defense so you guys know i came down today reporter to see if we. just because we're murdering people all around the world doesn't mean we can't. get in. during that silly wacky press conference the deputy secretary of defense casually mentioned halfway through that the pentagon had failed its 1st ever audit the 1st time the pentagon had ever been audited even though it was legally required to do so since the early ninety's. and after shanahan dropped that bombshell here's what followed reporter what part did the pentagon fail in the audit shanahan
4:32 pm
how about i give you a technical version of that there are a considerable number of areas where we kind of had a pass and then there is some other ones where they went through and we wouldn't do your inventory serves them and we didn't find these things and therefore there's a finding you don't have a clean assessments so. a lot of these audit it's it's the type of finding that matters. if they were in the real reporting looks like they can check out the investigative exposé from the nation magazine that came out a couple of days ago the nation says it's for decades the d.o.d.'s leaders and accountants have been perpetrating a gigantic unconstitutional accounting fraud deliberately cooking the books to mislead the congress and drive the d.o.d.'s budget ever higher deal d.
4:33 pm
has literally been making up numbers in the annual financial reports to congress so here's here's how this fraud works every year the pentagon tells congress how much money they need they submit the financial reports from the year before. too little . we heap ing. bold. call the adjustments. those adjustments cover up the fact that they didn't necessarily spend all the money the year before however instead of returning such unspent funds to the us treasury as law requires the pentagon sometimes launders and shifts such monies to other parts of the d.o.d.'s budget and this is no mistake this is the last the pentagon's accounting fraud diverts many billions of dollars that could be devoted to other national need indeed the pentagon
4:34 pm
accounting fraud amounts to death on a grand scale death not only for america's taxpayers but also from the nation's well being and its future so right after the nation came out with this this past week alexandria ocasio cortez tweeted about it basically saying that these unaccounted trillions at the pentagon could help pay for medicare for all this story is starting to gain traction people can see the truth and right now it is the corporate media tools who are trying to make sure you think it's just some accounting there's pay no mind to the fact that it amounts to the largest theft ever perpetrated against the american people this week called for keeping troops in iraq to watch the iran watch iran. from not realize we monitor other nations with satellites and spyware because you think we do are watching of other countries from like windows or the like a dude in a base in iraq with monoculars is sorry just think they're up to something. and if
4:35 pm
he wants it nearby for a response time trump doesn't seem to understand you don't have to leave troops in iraq because we can come back if we want to we have we have a very fast planes we have cargo planes we can come back very quickly come back if we have is we have very short planes with good players who can come back very quickly. and that's the same interview this week when he said we have to keep troops in iraq ok. if i look leaving troops in iraq is idiotic because of being in iraq was a mistake it was our big. 6 1 just yesterday going into millie one of the greatest mistakes that our country has ever made one of the greatest mistakes we've ever made why kids he had dads being in iraq was a mistake thank you it was a big mistake you know one of the greatest mistakes going into the middle east that
4:36 pm
our country has ever made one of the greatest mistakes we've ever made i don't tell them winning or losing this debate. let me try another angle here leading troops in iraq is wrong or simply because of the money americans are drowning in debt yet we're spending more money on military that anybody's ever spent in history by a lot we spent over the last 5 years close to $50000000000.00 a year in afghanistan alone that's more than most countries spend for everything including education medical everything else would someone dare tell that to donald trump we're spending more money than anyone has ever spent in his and. we spend over the last 5 years close to $50000000000.00 a year in afghanistan that's more than most countries spend for everything including education medical and everything else i. give up this is like debating a potted plant that a lot of plant that's spent 20 years in the n.f.l.
4:37 pm
. turns out u.s. troops are remaining in syria after trump had said he's pulling them out but don't worry it's just to guard the oil fields. like hell burning made up was just guarding all that money. kind of like our national guards all the fresh water in the world just before all over it we're just guarding the oil we're not taking control of the oil we've taken control of the oil. in the middle east the oil that we're talking about the oil that everybody was worried about we have the u.s. has control of that like i said we're taking control of the oil. just a temporary. just a temporary control guardian thing we're not claiming the oil we're not fighting to keep the oil and we may have to fight for the u.s. that's ok with you somebody else once you know which case they have a hell of
4:38 pm
a fight but there's massive amounts of oil again somebody else may claim it but either will negotiate a deal with whoever is claiming it if we think it's fair or we will militarily stop them pretty quickly we have tremendous power in the port like i said we're claiming . what we're just claiming it took or did it all right we're we're not taking it we don't even like oil. not even not even not in syria not not not in venezuela either the coup we're trying to create down of venezuela has nothing to do with oil like john bolton said it will make a big difference to the united states economically if we could have american oil companies really invest in and produce the oil capabilities in venezuela be good for the people of venezuela be good for the people of the united states we both have a lot at stake here making this come out the right way ok so we. know
4:39 pm
why venezuela's oil but as he said stealing their oil would be great for the venezuelan people to know well it's not just for our eyes we still it is a favorite of mine but still i think that's the exception that proves the rule in general we are not in. but people say to me do you want fries i say yes but don't call them an oil or i would. just breathe hot air on them. we weren't even interested in iraq's oil when we went in there. we should have taken the oil by going to iraq and saying you know what you have 15 trillion dollars worth of oil we've spent a trillion and a half on your war guess what folks are going to be paying us back yeah. let's you not mother. we invaded your country we actually if you did or imprison me or your people destroyed your society put in r r r pop it government that isn't doing for you. not even so much as
4:40 pm

4:42 pm
lipped. playing. and a very warm welcome to you you're watching us inside. morgan . imprisoned. a case to grab some media attention. in a 16 year old's 16th birthday party found citing the place to tell a lot of pressure. close to kids. just don't. go. so far
4:43 pm
more than this she wouldn't want. to shoot because i was standing right next to. me for is because you've got to keep in mind the. 1617. could lose their lives as clung to his fear of the. truth. and the united states presidential candidates debate the future of the u.s. and the world. to get into the burning questions of this election cycle. every week. student debt was money universal basic. and more catch up with running this sunday
4:44 pm
exclusively on. welcome back i am still looking and this is the best of redacted in i 2019 the military industrial complex. let's get back to it. yes we can that drop of ministration announced the death of the head of isis aba bachar al baghdadi sure you heard that he has been killed several times before you know what they say the 7 times that you are peter's point is the preeminent scholar of go sit down with your money. you tell us what happened. no no no. don't say his name a 3rd time what is he like beetlejuice kind of i mean the u.s. made this monster famous by constantly talking about him he has one speech on.
4:45 pm
why. i can't believe that this guy has way less content online than i do yet he was treated like a celebrity people still isn't aware like he's really are something. what do i need to do to get people to care about my panties it's like. why even bother wearing underwear of people are taking it and making creepy order out of it. i don't want to get into the psychology of that but that underwear that underwear was for do you have to confirm it was him but he wasn't even the founder of isis that was how we who also was a nobody until the u.s. military let a $24000000.00 propaganda campaign against him including radio broadcast and distribution of thousands of leaflets with our colleagues face on them in iraq leaflets what is that like a paper instagram post we we were doing is our colleagues promotion for him like we
4:46 pm
were advertising for an e.d.m. deejaying i am. club. that's how we helped create what some call out kind is off shoe in iraq isis there's no such thing as bad press for a guy who wants to be a bad guy. can be taken down already i mean we've seen enough of god damn die. i just wish i could get a deal like he did look i i could be a bad guy and scary terrorists probably the best we. can save you nailed it so let's let's talk about the raid against al baghdadi well it was a hollywood story there was a hero a dog but that he was he's down by a canine and though the name of the dog is classified it's rumored to be air but. other than the dog the media's focus on trumps errors in reporting the raid on bug
4:47 pm
daddy as if they got the truth from obama about the bin ladin raid obama just had a shorter story he spoke for 9 minutes while trump spoke for $45.00 so like listening to any long story we said oh that's crazy man. dubbed listening in check or from own so we later discovered contrary to the official narrative bin ladin was unarmed had been watched over by pakistan for years and the cia didn't help us find bin ladin by torturing suspects the location was revealed by a walk in a retired pakistani intelligence officer who was after the $25000000.00 reward that the us had promised anyone who helped locate bin ladin it's the same in this case it was in our intel against someone who wanted a $25000000.00 reward literally sold out baghdadi and his underwear.
4:48 pm
it's almost like people respond better to $25000000.00 then electric shocks to the . humans are mysterious creatures are in the region safe for now. no no way much like bin ladin but daddy was past his prime when he was killed and we never wanted the region to be seen for he was found hiding in turkish territory where the us back to rebels are being protected so we were in directly protecting isis yes indeed we were now there are several questions which remain about the raid such as who cares. but daddy didn't have any influence when he died no operational control he didn't even have a podcast. since our country's military industrial complex is engaged just an endless war it only makes sense our government would lock its troops into and list personal debt as well the consumer financial protection bureau
4:49 pm
currently led by interim director and sneaky. plans to roll back protections of the military lending act a law that protects active duty military from predatory lenders and fraud for more on this we go to our senior loan shark natalie mcgill. they. are you worried about this we are not too worried about a group that has an entire law written just for them while they are 0 for the rest of us who made financial decisions right where is the law the stop college freshman natalie from signing up for a credit card for free t. shirt $50.00 and some nachos. right where is the lot of point out the fine print where it said it was actually just $50.00 worth of nachos. plus the bureau was only scaling back on supervising lenders and just taking action against lenders if it receives a complaint so they'll wait until something bad happens before they do something
4:50 pm
that sounds like a terrible plan out that sounds. every superhero i've seen in a movie ever. did you hear about the new superman movie where he just squats outside of lex luthor house waiting for him to go up. no because it doesn't exist. plus after 12 years of this law these bad actors of learned their lesson especially since the agency delivered more than $130000000.00 of relief to service members and handled over $71000.00 complaints i got news for you brad people don't always learn their lesson the law was necessary because even department of defense research shows military members are 4 times as likely to be preyed upon with high interest loans the pentagon can't be thrilled about this over and i'm sure they could have been. if they had been notified about the changes to the act to begin with but even if the bureau sent the pentagon a letter they would have just misplaced it but how was the pentagon going to find
4:51 pm
a piece of paper when they can't even find $21.00 trillion dollars of the ok. thanks. over 20 years who doesn't this play is not related i doubt thomas jefferson would have sent lewis and clark to explore the western u.s. of quark couldn't find his own. cause the pentagon hasn't agreed to changes so they were better off not knowing but the military is better off in this in this proves there are preyed upon every step to their lives as war by recruiters during high school their promised health care they don't get there in afterthought when they become homeless vets and they're victims of corporate greed since mulvaney got tens of thousands of dollars from the payday lending industry as a member of congress ok ok given that a 3rd of the military uses stuff like payday loans i can see why mulvaney would capitalize but bad people can learn lessons like if that wasn't true then i'd still
4:52 pm
be making like this to get by. oh say can you see this cold hard cash are you in the military you don't record number of kills but you can't pay the bills to get the cash advance point. is it is our new location of this a panda cam the taco bell combo. oh yes. last week the u.s. recognized a paramilitary coup that seized power in bolivia as if they were a legitimate government and since then the death toll of the poor and indigenous has been climbing then we learned several coup plotters were trained at the notorious u.s. military school the school of the americas here to explain is part time guess what today on the curve on the thank you. only. thing are you struggling with kidnapping. is your extraordinary rendition just plain
4:53 pm
ordinary then we can help you at the school of the americas we teach creatively we want every student discover their own individual eyes technique of gagging government dissidents duct tape socks your various groups ok now that we get the ad free version of the story what what is the school have to do with the coup in bolivia fine i'll just end with a promo code all right so williams cali man the commander of bolivia's forces attended the school of the americas and for benning georgia in 2003 he was the one who suggested that president abel morales step down suggested yeah not with a gun to his head with an army to his head. now critics call is all mater the school of the americas a cool academy a school for assassins or the school for dictators however like all great american
4:54 pm
institutions of higher learning the school. some famous alumni some of which are war criminals and some of which may be war criminals pending the outcome of an upcoming trial. yeah it's a that's true well the school's curriculum dates back to the 1962 it's intended to prepare for conflicts like the cuban revolution so counter-insurgency internal security you know what i mean i gotta say our record was unimpeachable intil people started saying that graduates carried out massacres in el salvador yet public protests in public pressure led to the closure of the school years later but the military opened up another school in the same location with the exact same curriculum called the western hemisphere institute for security cooperation or we're back you know but i think they could have just changed the name to definitely
4:55 pm
not the school of the americas that. salvadorian desk lot of academy. really rolls off the tongue. so what are they teaching when that western women say well according to the training manuals released in 1906 torture extortion blackmail and the targeting of civilian populations so regular school. that's what everyone learns in philosophy class ways to torture people with thought experiments about a chair if the chair exists in your mind it's as in ideal form of a chair but let's say you were tied to that chair. and the other bit. recently they added human rights courses so in the morning it's widow making want to one no our kids i'm too old to coo creation in c.
4:56 pm
plus plus. and in the afternoon it's p.r. and burning evidence. the days are long sometimes they kind of gets annoying when the kids ask can we have the school shooting out. of. this well i guess on the bright side at least these highly trained death squads. go away and don't stay in america and well not only are you going and he's got them actually ice revealed that their agents will receive combat training in civilian targeted warfare and the school of the americas or when wide one day only carry money. that's the show but i have a live shows coming up in philadelphia austin dallas washington d.c. and more go to redacted tor dot com to get tickets also as you know we're very suppressed on you tube they aren't showing our videos to people the best way to
