of the optics and while the e-mails do show that no binal decision has been made on withdrawing the military aid a state department official told the media that the united states is quote constantly reviewing our assistance to ensure that it aligns with our policy objectives and makes best use of taxpayer dollars. you know i think the best use of taxpayer dollars is not to start and it was needless wars and then and then holding nations we invade hostage to our taxpayer funded age paid packages that's a pretty good use but we can all do that my friends if we start watching all this. you want to know what's going on a city street you want to. be so you'd like to see this as this joyce state. great city displays systemic deceptions so which. brings up the job as. well

when watching the box i am. joining me today to discuss the trump administration's recent moves to hold iraq withhold reracked military aid and hold that hostage because well you know they don't want our military there anymore as is legal and media analyst a lot of why don't we do thank you as always for going on with thank you sir so they're going to withhold this 250000000 contemplating withholding this 250000000 aid which would prevent iraq from buying $250000000.00 worth of weapons from our military industrial complex that's what the aid is for. we're going to give you money when you buy weapons from us. because you know they didn't they didn't bark or assassination of sawney is this good policy this kind of giving aid to these countries when you know military aid like because i'm going to say something right now tyrell that i've never said before i think in my entire life i don't understand any of this and i'm i'm i'm

12:35 pm
a deal very 90 percent of their budget i believe comes from their oil i believe it is their oil so can we then do the same thing with afghanistan we work on that with afghanistan which happens to be by the way the greatest. i guess purveyor of lithium and other types of so that's another issue i want to throw you to before we go a little time with these because i don't know how do you tell your i mean i am happy that our euro you're a great intelligent man and you represent a lot of other intelligent people out of school and we didn't figure it out we're both intelligent we don't know according to wall street journal the foreign military financing program administered by the department of state and defense consists of more than 5b5b with a b. loans and grants to other countries that is used to purchase american military gear right now isn't about essential u.s. taxpayers giving money to foreign countries or foreign militaries to then turn
12:36 pm
around and buy weapons from us but not use. them against us hypothetical or or or anybody else for that matter does this is the logic of the hard defense. just as it escaped my crazy for thinking that's nuts or you're crazy but not because of that ok it's not going to see t.v. the series crazy but what if he's right you know that with you too you know i don't know this but here here's the thing which is the greatest part and i talked to friends of mine who are devout christians and religious people i said where are you where is you i don't bring religion into this book but where were you where is you who is this new patch why there were this new was big but where you went and your god did how do you advocate this this is about death and destruction and nobody do you know what we could do if we walked into a country tyrrell has said we're going to buy wells and pave roads and schools that we would be low then we would be who. talk about the hearts and minds
12:37 pm
the vs the well if we spend half of our money on exactly what you're saying winning hearts and mind building infrastructure of the scope on other countries and then spent the other half building our own infrastructure here in the united states right you know exactly what i was doing $1000000.00 just to buy weapons i came here today on the amtrak is like that cannonball out of a boater event and i'm in iraq and station trying is talking about maglev been cycle parallel universe real systems i'm living in this 3rd world bought nothing wrong it's a 3rd world but nobody's ever thought about this but we're now arguing weapon systems you just don't get it i don't get why i don't thank you so much for that you will never lose all they did nothing to you have a lot i think you've helped out over there if you serve all right as legal cases pile up against oil giant exxon ford's role in climate change a canadian subsidiary of the company is being accused of ignoring its own research into global warming r

a very long time in the 1960 s. and korea oil began actively hiring consultants to combat future public backlash in regards to its relation to the environment documents from the time show the company was aware of the connection between fossil fuels and climate change but instead of adjusting its business to fight the threat it viewed the melting of ice in the arctic as a business opportunity knowing what it knew by the 1970 s. imperial oil was aware that resistance to the oil industry was likely going to grow and in response the company took things to the next level surveillance. in a 1906 report compiled to develop strategies for responding to criticism imperial profiled 6 so-called canadian pressure groups it accuse the organizations of targeting imperial over environmental and political issues while politicizing the entire fossil fuel industry itself in coming years and period would develop its own environmental research capabilities and by the 1990 s.
12:40 pm
the company's findings came to an alarming conclusion greenhouse gases were heating up the earth and imperials operations were contributing to the problem however these findings did little to change the company's behavior or defense of rhetoric former imperial c.e.o. robert peterson penned an article in 1998 for imperials in-house magazine that top executive wrote that there is absolutely no agreement among climatologists on whether or not the planet is getting warmer or if it is on whether the warming is the result of man made factors or natural variations in the climate he also added a thought that is popular amongst climate change deniers carbon dioxide is not a pollutant but an essential ingredient of life on this planet today this is ontario orals website. imperial has the same concerns as people everywhere to

in what is quickly becoming one of the most under-reported tragedies taken place here in the united states prisons across the southern state of mississippi are in a state of crisis after the tragic death of inmate terran bands dobbins back and december of 2029 the state of mississippi put its prisons on lockdown and since the dawning of the new year 5 inmates have been killed from violence and murders to fires flooding him even black mold inmates across the state are facing what some might call a biblical level of strife inside the state's prison system especially inside the state's highest security lock up the mississippi state penitentiary at parchment. and while many are quick to blame gang violence among the inmates is the ultimate problem that my friends is not the whole story according to the mississippi center
12:45 pm
for investigative reporting this problem was long in the making and that the current violence comes after years of neglect by state officials who allowed conditions at parchment to deteriorate when federal courts ended oversight of the facility in 2011. so what exactly is going on inside the parchment and other prisons across mississippi a state with the 3rd highest incarceration rate in the country well joining us today from jackson mississippi are prison and re-entry ministry embassador pauline rogers along with her husband frederick rodgers who was an inmate at parchment for 16 years thank you for joining me. thank you so i think the best place to begin is what exactly has been taking place inside mississippi's prisons in particular parchment penitentiary since the start of the new year what's going on out there. is like a volcano i should ask any roshan and in this so.
12:46 pm
it's not a angus like a cat ok it was a real thing to get you off that they have that's their response of anger but after you punch your moment yes in fact that now that post is draining. oh and this is eruption of what's been going on out for me in the many years. now many are quick to blame gang violence on the multiple tragedies taken place inside mississippi's prisons frederick you were incarcerated apartment for 16 years from the ages of 14 to 31 is this really a gang violence issue like most of the media and state officials are saying or what is really actually going on inside there and what's really causing these problems. with a certain degree to do with it but also included. you seem to what is being cruel
12:47 pm
relates to treatment 20 years used to result of that. there's a lot of state officials that need to be here look down the food be. sure. because we are they are here on account of our retreat want to know. let me ask you this who do you feel is ultimately responsible for the for this chaos and what needs to happen to bring accountability as you said to officials who have allowed these prisons to deteriorate who have not taken care of the incarcerated people there you know who should be held accountable and how can we hold them accountable . well for one thing you've got to give people. this is that this is what has happened in parchment in these other facilities is what has been designed to happen over the years quietly and one of the now read
12:48 pm
it like a fire in a marriage in her book when they have to kowtow and serve with the 1st female chaplain herit in the state of mississippi in a book that she art there she cows it parchment became a role model but the concept of pot placement for profit factory and so what has happened when people start that it was for profit just like it was when it was built for plantation now the system the system had to didn't increase with the increase in parole increase in. increase it all the things that created this collective system of unfair prosecutors. private prisons and so you have people who encourage family members actually to go to school to become lawyers judges get elected to be judges so that they can create this system that would. oh you would do is pass the baton on to him or so what
12:49 pm
needs to happen now is. not mr hope people account but you have to go back years to get ever batted as held accountable because this is a system. that has been created and designed to do just what is doing now to steal heal and destroy strong words strong neat hopeful hope waddles what how do you provide hope in the wilds now or worse going oh it is you got inhumane conditions where you can't tear a facility down and rebuild it overnight so what needs to happen now is truckloads of help the wholesome food. chicken fish the books and then some out and used to go in and state officials to give an encourage an uplifting message that we hear you loud and clear give us a minute but if you walk in and they're laying on concrete. need a mattress and a pillow piece of chicken and a pizza won't some sad that they're going to need
12:50 pm
a mattress a pillow and a blanket. most definitely product i want to take definite data needs to be accountability all there has to be accountability and we need to see it fast because there are people suffering right now and fredricka what we're formes do you feel incarcerated people living in mississippi need immediately right now to help stop this crisis from continuing and what can we do right now to help these people . we 1st thing go move us claim a prayer of lead to prayer their asses off and i also believe it would a person with the costs really well over a period of time where $1.00 sees relief you need to have a place to go to. walk into to have to go back to uproot as you know out of them prove to you our state of the 16 years. i gather momentum or of of money and i have a choice whether or not to return but i hear some people to surrounded me if me
12:51 pm
alone john and i think the state of mississippi still asleep in my crew the sister moment that we met discoursed been a moment from me in the program people from beaumont to to proves. that's very brilliant actually that's all we should be looking at i want to ask you this given the overall failure of the u.s. prison system should we as a country start looking at alternatives to incarceration what do you feel are better forms of rehabilitation you know should we do away with the prison system as it exists today in the united states and find something better. yes we definitely need outearning to fail prison system but you'd need to prison system to prison prisons were created the hard core criminals now is not for corrective they but for punitive behavior we just keep punishing and then we need
