party now there are reports that trade representatives from the u.s. and china could hold talks over the phone as early as next week but if the current rhetoric over there coronavirus continues there are legitimate concerns that it will hurt not only the trade talks but also relations between these 2 countries which could lead to a new cold war all right artie's rachel blevins thanks so much for from that report thank you and president trump is beating the trade war drum saying tariffs could be the ultimate punishment on china and this could be a poke in the geo political trade war hornets nest so joining me now for more analysis on this i am joined by stephen innes chief global market strategist steve thanks so much for joining us now this past january the u.s. and china signed phase one of the trade deal just this week president trump now threatened to negotiations altogether if china didn't fulfill its promise to buy $250000000000.00 in goods then you have the coronavirus putting a halt to just about everything do you see trump having some leverage here over china and these trade talks. i think they always do i think china is in
11:01 pm
a corner of themselves right now because there are not only us is putting pressure on them but they're also getting pressure from japan they're getting pressure from australia and also europe right now so they're looking to put out fires as quickly as possible around the globe the geo political forums are referring to i think one of the things that we're looking at here i think the blame game around the covert narrative is going to continue it looks to be almost an election grandstanding opportunity with president trump iran the curtain just looking to storm the election stage again so we think this is going to continue to be in the news but how harmful this really plays out for the markets really depends on how china responds right now things are pretty calm over in china right now the dollar yen the chinese equity seem to be taking this in stride looking at this towards more political bluster than anything else at this stage but if things do escalate if we get to the point where we pull those terrorist back well then china is going to ask a way they're going to weaken the you want. and that will send negative signals
11:02 pm
across the world and that's the fear of all some sort and you know you're talking about escalating so normally china responds to they respond very diplomatically to fiery rhetoric rhetoric coming from the united states but as of late china actually has been firing back a little bit could china potentially take some of this control back i mean we have everything made in china they could go somewhere else for oil who really has the upper hand then in these trade talks with all of that. it's a good it's a good theory valid point i think why we're seeing an opportunist could climb down right now is the fact that when you look at consumption engines around the world particularly or as they pertain to china's exports they're not firing ok so that's the one big problem right now so trump wants to ensure if those consumption engines are going to fire well they're going to fire towards the u.s. 1st that's what he's trying to get here i think they know that there's an issue with coal but they don't know the demand is not there in the normal export channels
11:03 pm
but trump wants to make sure when that demand comes back the u.s. 1st is the obligation that china has to fulfill and then you also stephen have tensions between china and the u.s. particularly in the south china sea that's literally a tinderbox waiting to happen will that play a role do you think in all timidly could china say you know what we're going to walk away from the negotiating table all together could you maybe 4 see them doing that. it's a very valid point you know there's security concerns all over the world right now as far as the u.s. is concerned especially as it pertains to china's belt wrote an issue of a low that's been out of the press right now but we've seen those flare up again and we do believe this is the 2nd phase of how the trade war is going to evolve it's going to have all around security issues and it's also going to revolve around technology issues to sort of start tracking these right now because there's a big election risk operating i don't think it's in the u.s.
11:04 pm
are there parties. or benefit to bring these up ahead of the election but they're certainly going to be on the mandates post election 2020 and i'm glad we're think it on the same wavelength here because you bring up an election we have we are in an election year 6 months from now perhaps the reason for trump's amping up all of this rhetoric towards china do you think it matters who is in the white house when it comes to these high level negotiations you've got somebody like a republican donald trump you also have the democratic nominee joe biden who do you think of possibly do it better does it matter. i don't think it matters i think both parties are agreed that they need to do something but for china and this is are actually are believe that trump is responding to by him and the fact biden came out last week and suggest that the trump is being too easy on china so we see possibilities here that things are going to escalate regardless of who's in the white house we think trade is going to be an ongoing or should we think intellectual property transfer is going to be an ongoing issue and of course we
11:05 pm
take security around the globe globe as china experiencer brown wrote in the ship is also going to be an issue for whoever is in the white house all right chief global market strategist steven as steven thank you so much for your time. thank you for having me. here in washington a senate committee is holding a hearing with top health officials to talk about the state of coronavirus testing state slowly reopen this month experts say testing is crucial and preventing another wave of infections plans for accurate and easy to use tests are in the works and could be available by the end of the summer so far the u.s. has run more than 7000000 tests over in france it appears that patients 0 may have been discovered suggesting the corona virus was circulating in france as early as december new evidence suggests the 43 year old frenchman contracted cold at 19 a month before france even confirmed its 1st case one hospital near paris retested as old flu samples and it showed positive for the virus take
11:06 pm
a listen. i learned i had coronavirus only 10 days after i left the hospital in france the outbreak started at the beginning of march and i caught the virus in december to me it's unbelievable 2 months apart the doctor called me and said mr amar you were lucky that's true because today this virus has spread everywhere and details are still unclear as to how patients are all contracted the virus as he had no travel history speaking of travel a cruise ship being investigated in australia for causing the coronavirus outbreak has sailed to the philippines now the ruby princess is docked in manila bay waiting for thousands of crewmembers to get tested before disembarking know the ship has been linked to 19 deaths in australia and 2 in the united states australia is investigating why 2700 passengers and crew were allowed to disembark in city before their test results. the tiny public school in montana will be among the 1st in the
11:07 pm
u.s. to reopen after being closed for almost 2 months due to the pandemic well a creek school opened its doors to $56.00 students and 18 staff members contrary to the majority of the united states schools that are closed for the rest of the academic year now the district superintendent acknowledges the risk and says 3 fourths of the parents surveyed want their kids back in school montana also reopen to churches restaurants and retail stores. presorted bird fossils are being used to potentially help with modern aviation and drone technology believe it or not our team is correspondent john hardy takes a closer look it's called a pterosaur and it was basically a flying lizard for more than 200000000 years ago that could be as tall as a giraffe weighing more than 600 pounds and was one of the earliest known vertebrates to have evolved power in flight researchers from the university of bristol published a review in the scientific journal trends in ecology and evolution about how the
11:08 pm
pterosaurs unique multilayered wing was structured possibly allowing it to launch from a stationary position and then maintain stability in flight dr michael habib is a paleontologist with the dinosaur institute at the natural history museum of los angeles and a co-author of the study pterosaurs had a very unusual winning is unique to them that was muscle and skin and other tissues soft tissue stretched from 11 sort of series of bones we costs far for the from the 4 legged giant finger the 4th fingers huge such that 4 fingers back the hind limb and that means they had to have very sophisticated ways of tensioning this in dealing with this fight gratian problem and they were probably better at any other animal has ever flown so not only were these gigantic flying dinosaurs able to solve their alas to city problems over evolutionary time but they were also in the size range of modern military and commercial aircraft in particular unmanned
11:09 pm
aerial vehicles or what are commonly referred to as drones it may seem a little bit weird to go into the fossil record to look at inspiration for she designed aircraft but in fact if you want that size range and you're interested in that kind of problem that's the best place to look dr have bieb says some of his recent research is currently under review by the u.s. army and that nasa. as a project and prototypes drawing from the pterosaurs launch and we know opening mechanisms using their legs wings and fingers to launch from the ground into the air and aerial mechanics like track dr habib says could one day be used by a drone or other aircraft to perhaps get out of a crater on mars just one example of the very distant past playing a role in launching flight technology into the future for our t.v. john hardy. so if you got stomach troubles or even some heartburn zantac says not
11:10 pm
the way to go anymore the f.d.a. is now warning us about the serious risks about this popular medication will discuss it next with rick sanchez and the sports h.q. pretty to have shows us one angle between took their appreciation for doctors and nurses to the big leagues they call for backup to. you cannot be both with the yeah you like.
11:11 pm
the one almost show same wrong all but all are all just all. to me you all get to shape out this day become educated and engaged an equal to trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart when she's to look for common ground. so you need for good in each. other than the men. but on the better side going into the book are useless all that business for me just. the sort of new. me emotional learning t. must do i feel still east of korean missiles in the course for me music is just that of ocean is just located if you go chill the church.
11:12 pm
before going into business to confession. we think you minds be soviet soldier because off the boat she's wearing. to church so the sold out so it can move the opposing opinion more than we do in the us like it on the show stuck in the summarizing the story is forced to just hold the. time after time called parisian to repeat the same mantra sustainability it's very important to excel or transition to sustainable price board sustainability stay number may not be more equitable and sustainable while. they claim that production is completely harmless. because. companies want us to feel good about buying their products while the
11:13 pm
damage is being done far away and this is again this point in even as i need luck. this time in unison we didn't. seem then we understood superman and. check your medicine cabinet because the f.d.a. is telling you to throw this out zantac why well for more on that we go to my friend and colleague host on the news with rick sanchez rick sanchez rick it's doing more than helping with the heartburn. can you imagine i mean
11:14 pm
it's interesting to be able to just look at a camera and say something like this but the fact of the matter is this is what i must say according to what the f.d.a. is telling me to tell you right now stop taking zantac stop do not take zantac anymore and if you have zantac in your home right now find it and get rid of it this is what they're saying to probably low estimate 60000 pardon me 60000000 americans who take it according to one study it could be as many as 3rd of all americans who have heartburn and take some kind of medication many of which say well they take different medications. 16000000 americans say that they have heartburn daily which means they take a medication for it every single day just to be able to deal with this i mean this is no matter how you look at it no matter how you break this down this is
11:15 pm
a very important story that we're sharing right now if we were not going through the coronavirus situation this would no likely be the biggest story that everyone would be talking about that's just how much this drug this medication is used so here's where it all starts so back in 2019. they did this study where they started to see low levels of something called m.d.m.a. it's a carcinogen it's a cancer causing agent they found that existed and as a result of that they started asking for a voluntary recall and some warnings then last month just about 30 days ago they looked further and there was another test the pound there were really much more of them safe levels. and this is interesting the longer it sits right the worse it gets the most the more key. answer causing agents come out and the medication also if you keep it in the heat if you keep it in and in
11:16 pm
a place where it's exposed to heat again there is a more cancerous agent that arrives so the f.d.a. has now come out and they've asked us to tell you this stop taking it get rid of it in fact listen to this they're saying it's so bad that they don't want you to just throw it away because they're afraid that if you throw it away it's going to end up in our water supply and then it's there's going to be a carcinogen in the in the environment don't throw it away by putting it in the trash they say the best way to get rid of it is to take it back to a form a c. and tell your pharmacist to try and get rid of it. and of course take something else i mean you know there's. nexium. as far as we know none of those contain some of these agents ferrand now rick you know one of the things and you actually are in the medical field as well as being an excellent journalist but one of the things that when you have these recalls and you have them down the line
11:17 pm
lawsuits. yeah. what do you know about that little fun fact there. it's already happening as a matter of fact there are at least several complaints and lawsuits and they're not only complaining about apparently carcinogens the lawsuits have already started they started about 5 years ago people complaining about damage livers damaged bladder and cancer concerns because of that novartis sandoz and. these are the big a pharmaceutical companies that have already pulled this from the shelves but because it wasn't required as it is today and now many other of the drug makers didn't pull it a little history by the way why has it taken so long for this to happen well glaxo started testing in 1980 s. glaxo is the company that originally that originated this drug. they did studies they found some problems critics scientists say they really found more problems
11:18 pm
they should have reported they did and they're complaining that they didn't that they discarded a lot of the stomach contents in the tests and that's why they're saying that this is something that should have been caught a long time ago and there may have been some carelessness glaxo for their part said look we did what the f.d.a. wanted us to do we tested it in rodents and mice and there was no carcinogens found in the mice so look through argument both ways the to the matter is right now the f.d.a. is saying again stop taking it get rid of it all right rick sanchez host of the news with rick sanchez my friend and colleague great to see you thanks so much for that report. former new jersey governor chris christie seems to be in the clear from all charges related to bridge gate after the u.s. supreme court throws out the 2 convictions of 2 aides to the former governor and the aides were previously convicted in 2013 for the closure of the george washington bridge that caused widespread delays and best gaiters believed at the

11:28 pm
this controversial issue on this edition of ticket. welcome to the politicking i'm larry king should businesses be protected from coronavirus related lawsuits republican leaders have said any future economic aid package will pass or fail on this issue will start the conversation with former republican congressman bill mccollum of florida he also serves as the attorney general of that state and he joins us from florida all right bill should be. me protected from future lawsuits well i think most of them should be there even because the fact is that we are trying to cover our will be trying to come out of a severe economic situation in which small businesses particularly are vulnerable 'd already and i have litigation going on about connections to the virus itself particularly those that may be charged with some aspect of the of the actual
11:29 pm
disease or some precipitation or aggravation of it strikes me that that that's wrong the same thing is true of the doctors and hospitals and all the caregivers of out there given care it's not easy in normal times you'd never do that but in this situation i think it's absolutely essential which you put the lawyer in a dim of those spot what about those maybe few who do do wrong where people who are obsequious have done wrong in the sense of simple negligence so maybe the standard shouldn't be a total prohibition but it ought to be some willful negligence or some something of a higher standard than what we call simple negligence which means that a person does something that a reasonable person might not and that's actually a very low standard but it's the standard in the civil court of law today for most things so if you raise the standard then maybe you don't have to actually prevent the lawsuit you just simply restrict it to those really bad that violations that
11:30 pm
were somebodies grossly negligent or willfully negligent move to other areas trump on opening up the economy said will people be affected yes will some people be affected badly yes but we have to get our country open art is that putting economics over health. actually i think they're both go together in this case the real reason we went to the shutdown and most of the places around the country had to go there was because we did not have the supplies the equipment the hospitals the doctors we and we didn't know how bad the virus was going to be so now we have a lot more we don't have everything we want we don't have all the to discus we don't have all the masks although they're being produced very rapidly right now but we have been.
