corona virus may be linked to another life threatening illness but something's happened the last few days it's beginning to concern our health department. and again parents pay attention because it doesn't involve our children. me york city issuing a health care alert after 15 cases of a multi-system employment or a condition called callous saki disease was detected in children under 16 years old in city hospitals according to officials 4 of the 15 children tested positive for corona virus while 6 others tested positive for having coronavirus antibodies suggesting a potential link between the 2 illnesses there have been cases identified in the u.k. and we are learning that there are very small numbers of cases identified for example and. we're not sure what to make of this yet the department of health said in

a statement all patients had subjective or measured fever and more than half reported rash abdominal pain vomiting or diarrhea respiratory symptoms were reported in less than half of these patients yet with so many unknown surrounding coronavirus in new york officials are forging ahead to reopen the state trooper we take with path we take coming down the mountain how fresh those at the crime continue does the crime continue and that is purely a function of what we do the governor announcing a plan that would allow some regions to reopen as soon as may 15th but will have to meet certain criteria that includes 2 straight weeks of reductions in deaths and new cases it requires more than 30 percent of hospital and intensive care beds remain open to prepare for a potential surge newco that hospitalizations must remain below 2 per every 100000 residents and there must be enough testing capacity to test 3 percent of the population monthly and 30 contact tracers for every 100000 people while the death.

has significantly dropped hospitals are still seeing more than 600 new coronavirus cases a day with 230 people who died on monday reporting in new york trinity chavez r t. r at a follow up now to the story we brought you one monday that as well as now arrested 2 u.s. citizens in connection to what they're calling a failed say raid aimed at ousting nicolas maduro and assassinating government officials in a televised speech by the auto held up a pair of u.s. passports and read those names of the 2 americans now in custody are days kaleb moppet has the rest of the story with the world's attention focused on the pandemic attempts to find a cure seems like the perfect time to law. then israel has just experienced events that sound like they come from a hollywood movie the military there says they've ordered an armed invasion they try to carry out an invasion by sealing up of terrorists in their series from

colombia in order to deny terrorist acts in the country murdering leaders of the revolutionary government. venezuelan officials declared victory 8 members of an armed group were kill others were arrested weapons were seized now that is whalen officials say that these weapons had actually been stolen during a coup attempt last year as a result of the immediate reaction several of the aforementioned most in news were killed in a confrontation and of those were captured some linked to drug trafficking who puts the painted in the organization of the terrorist operation. a significant amount of weapons and equipment was also retained both of which were stolen and used in the subversive action of april 30th 2019 so who was behind this operation well according to the associated press reports it was a former u.s. special operations officer named jordan god who works with retired venezuelan

military leaders to plan an invasion they planned to use $300.00 venezuelan military defectors to seize the capital within 96 hours now that's easy to dismiss as a conspiracy theory except we have video evidence here is x. green beret jordan god drew explaining and confirming the existence of operation getting in a daring and fabulous raid was launched from the border of colombia deep into the heart of caracas our men are continuing to fight right now our units have been activated in the south west and east of venezuela commander in the act is with me is colocated and commander sic a is on the ground now fighting video shows that participants in operation getty and were wearing blue armbands blue armbands that were very similar to those warren by the soldiers who participated in the coup attempt by opposition figure juan dueto last year the. company.

that i want to give. up a bit of a u.s. backed opposition figure juan dueto denied any involvement he called these events fabricated this is a fabricated montage or a criminal act manipulated by the dictatorship to continue the persecution towards the interim government the national assembly and the democratic forces he hasn't commented on the video but there's also a new twist a document has emerged purporting to be a $212000000.00 contract. between juan wedo and god through security forces you legibly hired to pull off a coup and later god drew complained that he did not get paid this is certainly not the 1st coup attempt in venezuela april 29th operation freedom a bold attempt just you do out of office that also failed you know what exactly the coup plotters got wrong this time isn't clear but more details are sure to emerge

what is very clear is that u.s. efforts to destabilize venezuela are in full swing regardless of the global situation. by staying with this bizarre case unfolding in venezuela after former u.s. special operators were busted and alleged plot to overthrow nicolas maduro by the row and tell by a speech to denounce the actions and blame the united states for another failed coup attempt while waving the passports to american citizens so joining us now to discuss this a little further is miguel tinker solace he's an author and professor of latin american history at pomona college me thank you for being with us so 1st as well as government confirmed the arrest of 13 mercenaries among them 2 u.s. citizens president maduro in a speech last night was waving around their passports and then president trump responded today let's listen i just got information nothing to do with our

government but i just got information on that so wolf well we'll find out which is sort of about it but whatever it is will let you know but it has nothing to do with our government. our what do you make of the u.s. government claiming not to be any part of this. well you know i don't have the intelligence to be able to say the impotence report to say where their truck nor did not we do know that u.s. intelligence knew about this there is no going to get an activity happening in colombia on the border which in venezuela and colombia that u.s. intelligence did not have information about we know to the colombians according to the report of april may 1st from a.p. had broken up several efforts to distribute weapons so if the colombians new information about this more than likely they had shared it with the u.s. and again the larger context however is how old an operation is crazy is when sounds could have taken shape it take shape precisely because of

a policy that aims to seek regime change in venezuela policy in which the u.s. refuses to recognize a government it continually talks about sanctions against the government if required an illegitimate government and it creates the conditions in which someone can lead them to something as as concocted as the staged invasion. and of the state of iowa and a professor obviously this isn't the 1st time that we've witnessed something like this coming to reckless from the u.s. we know elliott abrams is in charge of whatever is happening in venezuela now do you think there's anything strange about the timing and the pattern of this is that how many times are they going to have to fail between before the u.s. switches gears and change a strategy. well the u.s. seems to be looking at minnesota through imperial eyes they romanticized an opposition that they that they listen to all the time and the opposition is the same opposition that for example i shall be in iraq telling the bush administration

they would be received with roles in the streets the reality is that model still has a significant amount of support within the military has its support among certain sectors of the population that the real solution to swallow is a negotiated settlement between different political forces all real political forces reject insurrection violence a coup attempts only a peaceful solution can be achieved through negotiation by diverse forces and minnesota and what the opposition need to do then is to declare against an insurrection list approach accept the fact that they're going to have to enter into negotiations and stop supporting coups we saw coups in april of 2002 we saw our efforts at the stabilization of the so-called exit last 24 and seen other examples of stabilize venezuela we saw a coup in april 21000 and it hasn't worked and instead of increases suffering for a great number of people and confirms what mother has been trying to say or what

has been saying that is there is an effort to oust me that is unconstitutional and is through violent means and professor lastly will where the opposition fit into all of this whereas one quite ill on this it has been that he's denying being involved in making any payments to these mercenaries that this isn't his business he says but something doesn't really add up in my opinion especially given the timing of the recent u.s. seizure of venezuelan assets from citibank that were given to him quite know and his opposition group. there's a lot of things that don't add up here but the the one is that the opposition and the u.s. government can wash their hands clean plausible deniability we were not involved but had this succeeded big would be the 1st to be taken credit for had this succeeded they would be the 1st ones are marching on need a flow. the presidential palace trying to assume the position of presidency so again we see the create the conditions create the climate in which something as is concocted is this can actually take place and wash their hands in clean clothes

will deniability well we know that from john bolton to mike bump able to get abrams the one by you go into the right wing opposition that they represent this is been always an avenue that they sought to smuggle they seek divisions within the military they saw in the past an insurrection in april 21000 and they continue to push these directionless approach instead of accepting negotiations and looking for peaceful solutions within the country and real quickly as commentary do you think this is just taking advantage exploiting the coronavirus pandemic. undoubtedly it's occurring in the context of the current virus were they expected less preparation somehow the government would not be attentive to what was happening along the coast but again if we were to believe that ok you know the 2nd most powerful person in venezuela they had infiltrated this group earlier on include fact they were arguing in the 1st article in a.p. that they in fact that funded at the times when it was falling apart just like they

would have information so if that was the case then the government knew it was coming and was well prepared for it you know what a what a bizarre case it's exactly like a movie i think professor miguel think arsalan yes a bad rap professor make out think i always appreciate your expertise thank you thank you. other headlines making news today 3 family members are being charged for the shooting death of a security guard over a facemask dispute in flint michigan the security guard was reportedly arguing with a woman for not allowing her into the store without wearing a mask after the argument the woman left and then later 2 men showed up to the store and then shot the guard the woman her husband and her adult son are now being charged with 1st degree premeditated murder and on the. charges. and california has become the 1st state to borrow money from the federal government to pay out unemployment benefits the golden state borrowed $348000000.00 in federal

money after almost $4000000.00 people filed for unemployment tied to the pandemic california was approved to borrow up to $10000000000.00 until the end of july. right several states are in phase one of their reopening of their economy and while the rest of the country remains on lockdown we're going to talk about that and then later at the fortescue river hammer takes us to the world of chad where the best in the world battle to keep the title will be one.

the underlying narrative some call it a myth of american foreign policy is the country's exceptional position on the world stage this is the artisan consensus however reality is very different the global pandemic has demonstrated the us should focus on its own exceptional problems. the world is.

shaped by. the day or thinks. we dare to ask. breaking news out of the united arab emirates where

a massive fire is tearing through a 48 story apartment building residents evacuated the outgo tower in sharjah as the building was quickly and gulped in flames emergency responders are fighting to contain that fire so far no casualties have been reported but 7 people did suffer smoke inhalation local reports say the fire started on the 10th floor. and the coronavirus pandemic is taking a serious toll on the u.s. economy right now nearly $21.00 states remain on lockdown while $23.00 other states are in phase one of allowing businesses to reopen so it's a controversial decision in the hands of many governors across this country and fronsac takes a closer look at some of those states that are getting back to work and how one specific group is just trying to stay alive. stay at home safe lock down all things we've heard to flatten the coronavirus pandemic curve but now after weeks of doing just that states are flipping the switch from closed to open one finger i

also know that tables are pretty for the 1st time in weeks restaurants bars and casinos in montana are back in business but with precautions easily we have. them as we want to number it touches. one individual condom in. your face as well as possible. and the same precautions are seen on the opposite side of the country as florida opens the restaurants but they're only allowed 25 percent capacity here for the. gearing up for make sure that we're ready. that they are ready for us this is what we're going to do to make sure that everybody gets a. you know from the service after challenge down at your local restaurant you haven't been to in weeks now you can walk it off on the beach in some states like

florida texas and south carolina visitors again giving beachgoers the green light that you know you keep the spread you keep you stay away a certain amount and i really think the public has been incredible some though not feeling the same. system. while some states are continuing their phase one reopen other states are just fighting to be considered like massachusetts where hundreds gathered at the state capital calling for the bay state to reopen the virus was real it is real but it was not a reason to shut down the whole country to shut down. and shut people in but one area of the country isn't dealing with an open or closed conflict it's more life and death in parts of arizona and new mexico the navajo nation is the largest

reservation in the country bigger than west virginia but it has more covert 1000 infections per capita just behind the 2 hardest hit states new york and new jersey with the death toll as of monday night 73 more than 2300 infected despite congress passing a more than $8000000000.00 kovan $1000.00 relief bill the navajo nations are getting help at a snail's pace tuesday president trump will have a roundtable discussion on how to support the navajo nation but in a valiant effort to help and also pay back ireland reports that the country will be giving the navajo nation $1500000.00 to help all the pay back the thousands of dollars the choctaw nation donated to ireland back in 1905 during the great potato famine more than 170 years ago and washington fair and fronsac. so as stay at home orders linger
