3:30 pm
greetings and salutations. finally finally after $4.00 to $5.00 wasted days of partisan politicking and the proverbial dragging of feet across marble floors the dueling parties that make up the united states congress finally decided to agree on a massive 2 trillion dollar economic stimulus bill in an effort to save the nation from the kobe $1000.00 pandemic and in reaching this agreement they took the time as they always do to pat themselves on the back and paint themselves with grand historical significance senate democratic leader chuck schumer compared their agreement to world war 2 as marshall plan to rebuild europe yes he called the bill after sleep deprived nights in marathon negotiating sessions we have a bipartisan agreement on the largest rescue package in american history. i know i know you're suffering was who your suffering was really great i mean the
3:31 pm
anguish of having to stay up late and be forced to. i would do what you were elected to do in order to save all of us poor service men that is indeed some hard work chuck just like it's hard bro those nurses doctors and other medical professionals forced to work around the clock ships fighting this virus on the front line or or just as hard as the grocery store clerks and delivery drivers working long hours for nothing wages just to bring the quarantine some food supplies yeah that kind of hard work but thankfully schumer wasn't alone in that excruciating hard work that all those idiots on capitol hill were doing of having to argue with fellow old rich white men and women late into the night hard work is republican senator republican counterpart senator mitch mcconnell took to the podium and proudly exclaimed the great miss of this stimulus agreement stating. this is a wartime level of investment and to our nation the men and women of the greatest
3:32 pm
country on earth are going to defeat. and reclaim our future. or our. boy oh boy oh boy you know talk about a rousing call to arms there mitchie i mean you could have at least tried to show a little bit more excitement about your agreement that sends billions to your corporate benefactors while throwing all the rest of us the leftovers but maybe maybe you know maybe mitch wasn't excited because he knew all was not going to plan maybe he knew that as of this broadcast 3 republican senators tim scott ben sass and of course our old good buddy lindsey graham would be putting their foot on the neck of the agreement because it gives get this too much money to the unemployed so today let's take a deep dive into that stimulus that kept the us congress up all night and has senator lindsey graham's knickers in a twist as we start watching the hawks. she was. on
3:33 pm
a cd. player so let's see. this is the only state seal. grace suggests least systemic deception is complete show which. you'll. welcome everybody to watch your hard. joining me now to help me break down the ins and outs of this 2 trillion dollar coronavirus stimulus bill that isn't quite there yet i use r t america correspondent. so 1st you know democrats were holding this up earlier in the week now it's down to 3 grand old party republican senators saying that this is giving too much to the unemployed how dare we give right employed money how much are we talking about because what exactly in their minds is too much to give to
3:34 pm
people without jobs so the 1st thing that they're getting wrong here is they're talking about the unemployed people that are already not working what they don't realize is there is a massive amount of unemployed just 218000 alone that filed last week because of this virus so what they're saying is is that you know while everyone there they have been throwing around this number of every american going to $1200.00 also in this new bill and what we'll get into more of it in a 2nd but it's saying that if you were laid off because of the coronavirus the federal government's going to pay your salary along with your benefits which republicans are going on that is shocking they're saying what that's going to do is that's going to make people want to be unemployed and want to stand employed now you know for those of you don't know we have like kind of an 18 minute b. team here so we're on and off a week i was off last week the 1st thing i wanted to do was come back to work because a lot of people i will agree with trump a lot of people want to get back to work because a lot of times too they're going to make more when they're at work so it's interesting that these 3 senators are. and again they're trying to lump everybody
3:35 pm
into we don't we're not going to want to work if we lose our jobs then and it's going to die because you know losing your job because you're forced to stay at home in order to not get infected with the disease that has the possibility to kill you or people in your family that you are close to 0 you know what i'm going to get a really nice trucks i want to stay home or i don't think it's the payments that are going to make people want to stay home or about i do not hear of the virus that we typically want to not go to work so we have these 3 g.o.p. senators who are saying like oh my god we're giving them too much they might never want to work. and. what about the democrats are there any democrats who are now standing up against this bill or this agreement they haven't passed the bill ok so literally breaking just moments ago you have these 3 g.o.p. senators that say you know i'm going to take my marbles and go home if you don't do what i say now you have senator bernie sanders who actually was not at the vote last night he's been getting a lot of backlash on twitter for not being there because he had a virtual town hall on the coronavirus and the whole thing as you could talk about it but you couldn't vote on a side note but bernie sanders says if you change it i'm voting no and i will come
3:36 pm
back and vote now and you also have new york governor andrew cuomo who is saying that this bill is going to do absolutely nothing for new york right now it would in the senate bill 3800000000 would go to new york state 1300000000 in new york city he says that sounds like a lot of money but that's just a drop in the bucket they're looking at $15000000000.00 the state of new york alone while they need a lot more than what they're going to be getting i talked about the beginning you had you had my buddy chuck and mitchie standing up and being very proud of this agreement that they talk about how store they were in the sun and you know so the other question is you know after wasting all of our time fighting over this for 3 weeks rather than helping us who actually ended up with the better end of the deal the democrats or the republicans and you're absolutely right i mean they are so brave for having a common compromise on this scale and so let's look at the republican wins here and they were mainly focusing on corporations and businesses and hospitals democrats they were fighting saying it's about the people not corporations well they were able to keep those loans going to court. corporations and small businesses but here
3:37 pm
is where the little caviar came with the democrats democrats won the argument of strict oversight remember the bank bailout what happened there they learned their lesson so corporations they're going to be required to lay out how they're going to spend their emergency loans and make it public not just to congress but also to the american people so we'll be able to also check them ourselves they want to establish an oversight board to monitor where their money is going and again like i was mentioning before chuck schumer has this worker's 1st article where it's he calls it unemployment compensation on steroids saying that again if you were laid off or furloughed because of the coronavirus your salary plus benefits paid the reason that they want to do this is because you know trump is talking about coming back to work on easter they want it so that these people it keeps the employers and the businesses linked so that it's like you're not going to go out and it's like you know the business has come back and it's like oh you know forget them will hire new people it's no it's keeping them together because again american people do want to work you know so you know everybody wants to work no one wants to be lazy and
3:38 pm
sort of home all day that's kind of one of those strange myths about put out the plan but but but realistically people i mean you know it's also as you said it's like people are looking at they're saying i want to be back to work by used or if i'm going to die right exactly so if you can give me full benefits and all but hey you know it's also interesting because we have this whole big back and forth between the parties i mean they wasted many days they were there since friday. last friday. really at the end of the day you can really look at a lot of this is just kind of the circus can we oh yeah and a real quick thing the senate was supposed to be off last week they voted to stay to work on this and to get this passed great job if you're a but you're so brave the 2nd thing is that they're talking about how the senate now is going to be probably going on recess and the recess is about 2 weeks so we might not even get anything passed in the senate for a good 3 weeks but next week the house is back in session and nancy pelosi introduced her bill on monday that had a lot of other democratic talking points like student loan forgiveness and you know green new deal stuff thrown. and there are so i think senate this is going to force
3:39 pm
some senators to stick around to see what the house is going to do next week good stuff aaron always thank you for coming on and breaking that down for us good good work today that having so much. but now we move on the one of the most important questions of the day around the world what are people doing to stop and actually kill this virus that threatens us well it appears that while governments work on plans of actions to fight the coronavirus scientists and every day people are desperately looking for cures from big pharma the fans of that even natural remedies everybody is in on the battle against covert 19 artie's alex mccaleb it has the story. from laboratories in china to the u.k. thousands of people around the world are working on ways to fight covert 19 fast boat development a license that seeing he takes many years it's quite probable with etc reasons for development for a cavy vaccine that might be shrunk to maybe
3:40 pm
a year the urgent need for something to be done is being addressed internationally among the many companies universities and other institutions working on a vaccine some believe the 2 front runners at this point are china based can sign a biotechnology inc and massachusetts based moderna therapeutics which is already testing its vaccine on humans can sign and is known for creating the world's 1st internationally accepted a bowl of vaccine. but besides players like china the u.k. and u.s. the world health organization says more than 20 vaccines are being worked on around the world and that includes places like israel singapore russia and canada however the who is cautioning that we need to take our time when talking about vaccines according to the organization there is only one thing more dangerous than about virus and that's a bad vaccine while many see stopping the virus before it hits any harder as a priority it's important to remember that we might not get a vaccine at all so developing treatments is equally important and according to
3:41 pm
experts faster repurchasing existing drugs that work can be done in weeks a possible treatment that's got a lot of attention is rem deaths of ear developed by gilliatt sciences it's described as an investigational broad spectrum antiviral treatment one of its applications has been to treat patients with a bola gilliatt however received lots of heat for obtaining exclusive access to the potential for the virus treatment and critics are claiming the company is trying to cash in from the crisis. another possible solution is collect hiv drug currently being tested and then there is the drug that president trump has called the game changer clear equipment and anti-malaria drug that's been around since 1949 while experts say there needs to be more testing on chloroquine for some the world of science and medicine is just not moving fast enough and they're ready
3:42 pm
to risk it all to find a cure and arizona man and his wife both in their sixty's in just a fish tank cleaning out a diff made with chloroquine phosphate they thought it would be a good way to keep the corona virus at bay the man died and the woman was hospitalized but is expected to recover the european union which has been hit hard by covert 19 is urging people to be wary of quick fixes according to our european union agencies. the amount of cyber crime in the european union has increased and the number of fake medicines disinfection sprays a miracle cures sold online is staggering in the meantime russian scientists have taken the 1st microscope images of covert 19 information is welcome to munition in the fight to developing vaccines and drug treatments that will be effective against the coronavirus for r t i'm alex mileage. all right before we go to break let me present to you the brand new exercise app brought to you by our good friends at the federal bureau of
3:43 pm
investigation called the f.b.i. busy ms test yes the parents of the bureau is so worried about your present will help now that so many of us are stuck at home that they want you to work out like a g. man which makes sense i mean i don't know about you but when i think of physical fitness i think of yes the one and only j. edgar hoover and speaking of j. edgar many critics are pointing out that apparently the f.b.i. is new app while helping train like an agent also needs to access your location photos media files and storage gibbs who doesn't want the pads roaming around in your private information i guess they want more of a chase when big brother comes to you to catch you for your thought crimes all right everybody as we go to break remember that you can also start watching the hawks on demand to the brand new portable t.v. apple billboard smartphones through google play on the apple app store by searching portable t.v. or stream us to your t.v. by downloading the portable t.v.

3:45 pm
men not near our bar. i kind of were on the. course if i'm not big now i think it's higher than our. members of the african mafias conway's them safe and quick passage to europe but once they. leave they are enslaved the country church. will not some of the libya moammar not under you know. this you know get it out in. the soil the. least. concord of the. because the persona that are discovered a normal. child
3:46 pm
something seems wrong. just don't call. me world is yet to shape our disdain to come to educate and in gains from it equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the stock market i could imagine trading in a 1000 again on the dow and that would be an appropriate level given the true underlying economic factors the bond market interest rate should be 45 percent and the 30 day interest rate ok that would be down 506070 percent but that's that's that's a return to normal valuation and that's what we need right. in
3:47 pm
what was almost in the numbers ability at this point recently it was revealed that a member of the medical staff of the new jersey immigrations and customs detention center has tested positive for cobra 19 as well as a 31 year old mexican national currently being held by u.s. customs and immigration this comes as the nation reports that according to leaked documents dated march 19th ice says health services corps had isolated 9 detainees that it was monitoring 24 more in 10 different i suppose sylvie's however the documents do not specify exactly what illness or illnesses these individuals were being monitored for but since the title of the leaked document is department of homeland security national operations center coded 19 placemat. i think one could
3:48 pm
make a pretty good guesstimation on what they're talking about this news backs up a new legal campaign taking place in states across the nation that seeks to release immigrant detainees across the country from the controversial camps for the sake of public health joining us now to discuss this movement on the spread of covert 19 in the immigration detention facilities is immigration attorney alan or jr always a pleasure having you on ellen thank you. thanks for having me so allan what what are the basis for these lawsuits against isis and are they getting any legal traction in the courts. i think they are getting legal traction you've seen some movement in the 9th circuit where the court actually affirmatively took this action it didn't work right here on the east coast but i think the thing that we should think about is that this is not about immigrants this is about all people who are in prison for mr meaner so much of this virus this change the way people operate business where they're working from home they really did need these office
3:49 pm
buildings in the 1st place to get the economy going it sort of thing the same thing about the tensions in jail or low level and that this probably isn't the best method for trying to deter people in these filthy difficult when the you have the obligation and regular job overcrowded as long as immigration played overcrowded you know record number of people dying in the philippines and all rate in the ability much less there are a lot of juvenile elder needs to fill these who should be released for no other reason than they didn't really decide to come here right i mean if their parents brought them it is not a crime to. you know we've talked before about the bay injures of disease running rampant in these detention centers what do we know about the spread of covert 19 right now in the i like to call them concentration camps so far. you can call them that i mean i think the issue is one that's probably the same thing about prison the prisoners aren't going out and general circulation so they're not getting coming from the air it will be the officers of the guards of the business who are bringing the disease to them which then for it will spread within the building
3:50 pm
because they don't have the health care the problem is they don't have the appropriate medical sort of devices and documents to take care of that within the facility a government worker the judges or the detainees all in this case for health reasons just like we are now sort of not going on our regular operation for business we should let these people return to their families if you're going to deport them you would have already reported them at some of the time the thought is that you can't release them and then deport them later they are not people who are there for murder you might do that some people in need but not people who are their only crime is crossing the border and waiting to be processed you know we have also heard talk about the release of hundreds even thousands of incarcerated people from various jails across the country in response to the virus could we see something similar with immigrant detainees moving forward or is this going to be one of those situations where the trumpet ministrations going to dig into their heels and make up all the usual excuses to keep these people from actually getting help or being safe from this virus. these are the things smart governors that's just recently in
3:51 pm
chicago where they said we're not locking up people our local jails anymore we're not even interested in how we got greater is different i will deal with both of these later the issue of the differences and most of the federal cases in court you need a judge to sort of really see people i thought of and have that limitation i can release these people tomorrow by their own little power so therefore it is the truth that ministration the thought of dragging their feet on that and sort of blaming the immigrant saying they brought the disease here right and that sort of problematic when the disease wasn't here all the time they've been detained before and all the great. for coming here once again the great political battle over going to station i always say the immigrant the other. the name country bar and all those things are problematic and sort of build to that when we start seeing hundreds or thousands of people die in the building because we're talking about 200 years ago these across the united states which once again are most of them are proud of it one thing and that's another if you're from the federal government that you did
3:52 pm
name the people at the day when if they were illegal some other method. that when they are around are 20 day although that makes really just once again the battle going well and i thank you so much for that information and for keeping on this story and illuminating our audience on what's happening with these these as i say concentration camps thank you so much sir always a pleasure. thank you for having me. the world's largest lockdown in response to the corona virus has gone into effect in india where more than 1300000000 residents have been ordered to stay in their homes for the next 3 weeks but how my friends with this sudden shutdown impact the country and will it be enough to stop the massive outbreak of the coronavirus there are 2 americas rachel blevins joins me now to discuss the latest rachel what do we know so far about this lockdown because a massive amount of people in one of the most populated countries on the on the planet absolutely so this lockdown went into effect just hours after it now was
3:53 pm
announced and we're talking about a country that has nearly one 5th of the world's population and they're saying that it's going to last for $21.00 days so far but at the same time this comes after india's government shut down all the messick air travel and they shut down their role system so it could last longer but it's all going to depend on what happens with the current a virus and that country now in the as prime minister did speak out he took to twitter and tried to calm down some of the alarm so to speak and he said there's absolutely no need to panic and he claim that essential come. bodies and medicines would be made available as insured by various state governments but there's still a lot of questions here about exactly what residents are going to be allowed to do or if they're going to have to stay in their homes i rely on the state governments have been wearing them the supplies that they need and that will let me ask you this what are the i mean obviously we can kind of from our own experiences here in the states and what we've seen over the news what are the concerns if there is a massive coronavirus called wouldn't you know
3:54 pm
a break in deal like what kind of scale are we looking at your grace in the same way here in the united states we're looking at our own health care system and saying they would not be able to handle a massive current virus outbreak that's exactly what's happening in india and especially when we're looking at their health care system issues that it's had over the last few years now if we're looking at the numbers specifically reports are noting that when it comes to india's health care system may currently have just $40000.00 ventilators only one isolation bed per 484000 people and one doctor per $11600.00 people and now they've only conducted $17000.00 kroner virus tests which have resulted in around $500.00 confirmed cases so right now they have $500.00 confirmed cases in around and as a result of the corona virus but at the same time with a lack of supplies they're looking at this and knowing that if there is a major outbreak they simply won't be able to afford it while that's incredible i want to ask you you know what how do these moves by your mean they're locking down
3:55 pm
the entire country you know this isn't like kind of the whole point they're not doing half measures at this point how do those moves compare to like other states other steps of other governments are taking around the world like the u.s. or the you know britain and the united kingdom and things like that how how does our compare here in the united states we're seeing these lockdowns are sort of shelter in place orders being issued for cities in states that have a number of cases of the coronavirus and then over in the u.k. they had a more sweeping lockdown but at the same time the one thing that they. in common is they're still allowing residents to go out for groceries to the pharmacy and for essential jobs and even over in the u.k. they said that residents can go outside an exercise once a day so here in india it seems like it's a much more sweeping ban how much bigger a lockdown they're calling in a complete lockdown but at the same time india is also the place where we've seen hundreds of thousands of protesters taking to the streets in recent months so this could be a way to quiet the protesters all along with combating the core of i mean the
3:56 pm
interesting to be really think about that angle right there at the very big get everyone to stay home and they don't have to speak bad about me in public or leave a lot of a lot of governments work that way but now thank you very much rachel excellent reporting on the very important to pay attention to not just you know the places that we know us things like that we've got to pay attention to the other most important countries in the world thank you so much always a pleasure all right everybody and that is our show for today remember everyone in this world we are told that we love to tell you all. rolled into a keep on watching all those hawks out there and have a great day and they are. your
3:57 pm

3:59 pm
between countries and the investment chapter of a trade agreement is about something very different but won't when investment leads to toxic manufacturing that destroys sacred sites all ruins the environment. that means if local communities that are being poisoned if they object if they do anything that the company feels is interrupting their profits they can be certain multinationals of taking on the whole nation's philip morris is trying to. use i.d.s. india to stop florida wife from implementing new tobacco regulations aimed at cutting domestic smoking rates a fringe company sued egypt because egypt resists minimum wage democratic choice trump called personal joy and says we try to fund don't want to.
