anyway the $21.00 trillion includes $6.00 trillion dollars unaccounted for in 2015 alone and when i covered this a 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 the 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 just bothered 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 like true to go articles on the same topic

also went viral and so did that forbes article yet despite thank you yet despite. 5 the just like all the exact still not a word from congress not a word from the hacks that 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 why i came down today 'd reporter to see if we need to do . this. just because we're murdering people all around the world doesn't mean we can. 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 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 they had 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. and 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. 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. to little. we heaping steaming bowls. of gold. called the adjustments those adjustments cover up the fact that they didn't necessarily spin all the money the year before however instead of returning such unspent funds to the us treasury as law acquires 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 for all the pentagon's accounting fraud die. many billions of dollars that could be devoted to other national needs indeed the pentagon accounting fraud amounts to death on a grand scale def 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 watched iran watch iran. not realize we monitor

other nations with satellites and spy ware because you think we do are watching of other countries from like windows or the like a dude in a base in iraq with an ocular sorry just think they're up to something. and if 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 but come back if we have his we have a very sinister plans with the local places we can come back very quickly. and that's the same interview this week when he said we have to keep troops in iraq ok fine look leave in troops in iraq is idiotic because of being in iraq was a mistake it was our big risk a wrong one was biggest mistake going into the middle east one of the greatest

mistakes that our country has ever made one of the greatest mistakes we've ever made why can't he get dad's. being in iraq was a mistake thank you that was a big mistake you know one of the greatest mistakes going into the middle east that our country has ever made one of the greatest mistakes that 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 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 some would dare tell that to donald trump we're spending more money than anyone has ever spent in his. 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. . 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. kind of like how burning made up was just guarding all that money. kind of like our national guards all the freshwater 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 us has control of the like i said we're taking control of the oil it's just a temporary. temporary control guardian thing we're not

claiming the oil we're not fighting to keep the oil and we. they have to fight for the us that's ok with you somebody else once you know which case they have a hell of a fight but there's massive amounts of oil again somebody else may claim it but either will negotiate a deal with whoever's 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 . but 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 in 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 why venezuela's oil but as he said stealing their oil would be great for the venezuelan people. it's not just for our eyes we still it is a favor to that. but still i think that's the exception that proves the rule in general we are. up to it but people say to me do you want fries i say yes but don't call them an oil or i was. just breathed 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 going to be paying us back yeah. you know

mother. we invaded your country we actually if you did or imprison many of your people destroyed your society put in our our our puppet government that is doing for you. not even so much as a thank you we have to go to a short break but quick note my new book bullet points and punch lines is available for preorder at leat camp book dot com it's many columns from my truth articles also it's got a lot of extra in there and it's got an intro by jimmy door forward by chris hedges and in the us there's a limited number of signed copies available check it out all right i'll be right back well a lot more. and we're going to fulfill that promise is probably to the people you know we've all pots it was. pretty.

pretty clear. now you want to 1st. know 5. this is a sticker from the water bottle found in the stomach of the fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad ones there's

a litter box or trying this way industry should be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. contents not. to kill cats susie. also this was in may that seems will settle some new classes to see course on my end i need to stay when you lose that special projects funding he tells the defense and. on the investment is the end of it for the team but fun now the mountains of least only grow. join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us of the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then. welcome back i am still we can and this is the best of redacted in i 2019 the military industrial complex. let's get back to us.

yes we can that prompted ministration announced the death of the head of isis aba bachar alba god are you sure you heard the baghdadi has been killed several times before you know what they say the 7 times that you are here to explain is the preeminent scholar of 5 go signal make your money. go tell us what happened to our boo no no no. don't say his name for a time what was he like beetlejuice kind of i mean the u.s. made this monster framus by constantly talking about him he has one speech on line why. i can't believe this guy has way less content online than i do yet he was treated like a celebrity people stole his underwear like he's really are something. one

way need to do to get people to care about my panties it's like. why even bother wearing underwear people are taking in making creepy order out of it. i don't want to get into the psychology of that but that i'm aware that in the world for d.n.a. to confirm it was him but that he wasn't even the founder of isis that was our colleague 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 were advertising for an e.m.t. d.j. night at a club. that's how we helped create what some call al qaeda is off shrew 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 goddamned guy. 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 say that 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 raised 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 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. 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 dollar reward that the u.s. had promised anyone who helped locate bin lot it it's the same in this case it wasn't our intel against someone who wanted a $25000000.00 reward literally sold out by daddy and his underwear. it's almost like people respond better to $25000000.00 then electric shocks to their. humans are mysterious creatures are in the region safe for now but. 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 safer 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 surgery's military industrial complex is engaged just an endless war it only makes sense our government would lock its troops in to and list personal debt as well the consumer financial protection bureau currently led by interim director and sneaky. way of rollback 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. 8. are you worried about this i'm not too worried about a group that has in and. higher law written just for them while they're 0 for the rest of us who made financial decisions all right where's the law the stop college freshman natalie from signing up for a credit card for free t. shirt 50 dollars in some nachos. where's 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 and supervising lenders and just taking action against lenders if it receives a complaint so they'll wait until something happens before they do something that sounds like a terrible point out that sounds like 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. 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 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. quest the pentagon hasn't agreed to changes so they were better off not knowing but the military is better off and this is. this proves there are preyed upon every step to their lives in the endless war by recruiters during high school their promised health care they don't get there an ad for a thought 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 movie and what capitalized but bad people can learn lessons like if that wasn't true then i'd still be making the ads like this to get by. oh say can you see this cold hard cash for you with the military director 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. 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 only care of honor thank you. only. thing are you struggling with kidnapping. is your extraordinary rendition just plain 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. ok.

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 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 i was there 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 and kill 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 not the school of the americas that. salvadorians s. 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. 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 you know not only are you going to he's got them and actually ice revealed that their agents will receive combat training in civilian targeted warfare at the school of the americas or when wide why do you make erroneous. that's the job 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 hear about our videos is to go to youtube dot com redacted and i you have to click subscribe you also got to click the balog next to the word subscribe it's very important all right until dark time good night keep fighting.

hard to see if you're right. and. my name is drawn more than i was for the imprisoned by the exploration of my life. case to grab some media attention and it's a shooting in a 16 year old's 16th birthday party. so i think the police just a lot of pressure to. close the case. for these i think. it's like somebody. you know something wrong with the shorter one with the shooter because i was standing right next to. me because you guys you know my point is you know

1617 years old. just blew my nose as plunder just. true. true. this is. phone in the stomach of a fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad was there the litter bugs are trying this way industry should be blamed for all this waste the company has promised to reuse the plastic.
