strikes more bombings more killings under president obama hope it was all for everyone's own good when in fact just last month when president trump announced he wants to remove 12000 troops from or you want to remove troops from afghanistan the democratic party that controls the house actually teamed up with liz cheney daughter of dick cheney to try to block and they actually passed legislation to try to prevent the end of the longest war in u.s. history so for them to now say we want to end endless wars it really is a farce who knows that the voters will buy us that's nonsense. thanks for joining us here on out i'll be back with more at the top there are. some other solution to the strike we talked about problems all year and then at

5:33 am

5:34 am
and what it means for the rest of the world so. the new york of 2020 will probably be featured in the history books this cd is nothing like it used to be ever humming downtown streets deserted those who can isolate themselves at home those who can't wear masks or face traps as if the virus isn't every breath of fear. in all of these somehow going to occur and with me now liz demonstrations and protests happening left and right. new york a place of dozens and dozens of demonstrations taking place. to different events from a to the black. people protest about. inequality brutality
5:35 am
racial profiling black life latino life. these people for example. to construct and that'll be sending to cities in response to soaring crime rate. cuts. that are very predictable it's amazing how a short amount of time it's like march all of a sudden we had to figure out everybody had to work from home and when the paper work them out became a you know highly valued april may we were getting used to em and george florida's murder multiple other police and johnson became people of color are brought to the forefront and it's just really lit up.
5:36 am
not coalmines over here. then we had looting have you been downtown have you been do think the cab in madison avenue a $1000000.00 out of plus these incredible fashion houses boarded up plywood then came the riots organized riots pallets of bricks i have been waiting for the. completed global societal collapse i never knew it would happen this way the country was. slimmest. and this broken apart.
5:37 am
nobody is even questioning the horror of the death. i defy anybody to explain what's black and the number of people white americans suburban high income who have their black lives matter they have a black live matter sign in the front yard. gay slag here they've got it all covered they've got it all covered and they couldn't tell you it's become almost
5:38 am
like in some cases your article of clothing. it's a style that little is matter of. fact many lives not only that. it isn't really what it is you're selling. online or. the import of these trailers that are further if you bring more light to the. people who speak about. it or educated or. if you don't know what we. 8 do you think you've seen in all the. music. oh. but how did it all began how did the usa end up in such a situation. what would be a proper greeting this time. sure. thank you.
5:39 am
something we should get used to you know in that he said you through it and. he works as a nurse in one of the hospitals right and he also was a vocal critic of the way this whole pandemic and crisis was in new york and in the country do you think that need was prepared for this outbreak honestly i don't feel like we were prepared very much at all i think a quicker shutdown would have done a bit better to mitigate the spread that was going on part of the reason the virus has spread so much is that so many people live in big cities like new york with minimal or no access to proper health year these are the homeless and poor people who don't have good insurance plans. so this is going to be our 1st shooting location a small park in manhattan where a volunteer is already distributing food or homeless and poor statistics show that most people are dying from coded $9000.00 at a rate 61 percent higher than the general population in new york and shelter risk
5:40 am
were most of them live are notorious for being coronavirus hogback so we look around and talk to these people to find out what this and them it is like for them . i've heard that they have a like the give away food here like every monday and wednesday. to you. know getting. some how this pandemics thing going on for you personally we hold enough. money going on. the people who want. also. i mean people are dying people on it's. you. and you don't believe in you like you don't believe in ovid that this is a real threat this is something for real. i don't think it's right to.
5:41 am
mind. it's not. a. good. rule and just. go like this i don't know this crazy this is crazy this is very sick and this is how things were screwed and. we're doing nothing about it there's we take no precautions so you guys now wearing a mask so you know i got a bunch of them and they were just like kids act. like you know that i could be down here in the world is. like literally this this is so. crazy this is i'm not getting this is the 1st man i interviewed in new york when i
5:42 am
get here and this guy literally he just to go out with a syringe and he made a shot with heroin i mean this is crazy and it's just you know i'm not comfortable . with that it's just it's just so over the top. it is scary. these people they believe in the whole bit they frankly don't care maybe poverty isn't the main reason coronavirus has brought in the u.s. but you know it's definitely contributed to make in the numbers look bad specially new york city we have a lot of analysis people who don't have access to clean water. antibacterials hand sanitizer even the ability to socially distance is a luxury for them right so without that ability 1st of all it's horrible all but 2nd of all it breeds the possibility of contagion going forward what was this pandemic like for you oh my god what. did the
5:43 am
good. to. see. you i mean do you have a plan like for example if tomorrow you feel any symptoms like what would you do you go to a hospital you have insurance like you have a plan. to look maybe you know some folks who are staying in the shelter or something like that will be. 26. this part of manhattan that's what led to this all right so these guys directed us to one of the largest shelters in manhattan and there's been a lot of reports that these facilities are overcrowded and the people there are well they have been left to cope with the cold it's on the road.
5:44 am
was a day make no mistake you know blood is just flying through nationalities. which we don't actually. each take. comedy classes with this system things. we can do better we should be. everyone is contributing. but we also know that this crisis will not. go on forever the challenge is create the response has been so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we're in it together.
5:45 am
the world is driven by a dream shaped by phone person with those great. military thinks. we dare to ask. has changed american lives but pharmaceutical companies have a miraculous solution. based drugs talk to people who are chronic pain and believe that their opioid prescription is working for them and the remedy be said to. price at the. close of dependency and addiction to opiates to long term use that really
5:46 am
isn't scientifically justified and i'll study actually suggest that the long term effects might not just be absence of benefit but actually that they might be causing long term. so this is the place to shelter we were told about. it's getting late so people are coming in and out bellevue homeless shelter it's the name was all over the news just recently one terrible pictures of men slipping on the floor inches apart went viral this is tapping the thing up the way you can tame the spread of run a virus in a city and here's what happened after the public outcry about homeless. subways
5:47 am
city authorities came after them and forced them into this public shelters the problem is that the facilities were weakly overcrowded there are not enough bats and not enough people men sleep on top of each other it's it's a mass was going on behind those walls so you have around 20 shelters across the city at the height of the pandemic which are of nothing but little bit odd bats. little search comes on time just wanted to do some you know. we are not allowed to go inside without permission plus there are probably people who are in fact right now and don't want to risk it so but we might find someone outside few would be willing to talk. still
5:48 am
a lot of reports that you know at the height of that kind make it was overcrowded people worse living on top of each other yeah it was their right it was people you know in the same room is supposed to be 6 feet away at a. time one. example that's not a social distance. what do you think about this whole cove that thing i mean this whole colbert thing. compilation. so what's your plan for tonight. and i sleep in it. you already got a spot yeah i got a spot in the show let's do it all right no problem. please
5:49 am
. please. please. do not scared like i mean i mean it's not about the escapism list. that's a go it's because my family's they give me sleep. but they don't really want to know. is just it's a microcosm. of this cold and 19th crisis in new york if you look at this now from these guys perspective he doesn't appear. is going to sleep outside tonight doesn't wear a mask he doesn't know they were following any social distancing. this guy probably. not aware of that.
5:50 am
is just the way it goes. there are people in this city who are in state they're not homeless yes they are homeless because they are insane they're also toothless and shoeless and jobless and sometimes hopeless. and whatever you want to call it insanity drug addiction alcohol addiction a combination there are i don't know i am seeing level of insanity on the street that i've never seen and i'm used to a lobbyist. that you wouldn't believe. it's not just how muslim poor falling victim to the covert crisis in the u.s. and there was one place not far from new york. that reveals the unprecedented scale
5:51 am
has to get past your feet. this place is called island it's about an hour ride from new york and the 15 minutes boat ride from the nearest dock if a body can be identified or if a person has no family or and family could not afford burial costs then island is the answer and it has been serving as a mass grave for centuries but now with all this pandemic this place is in high demand. gruesome and aerial footage shown on plane bodies being buried in trenches here. or has it that when it blows north east from the north the storm all the rocks on the northeast side of the island there are places superheroes of the durned there's no bones washed up washed up onto the island and things like that all the time and
5:52 am
that's going to. have heard some people saying that there's some old city islanders around skulls or things like that. it's kind of creepy. and. i think this is this close as we can get actually not a lot of set foot on the island well i mean now when it's so quiet you're really getting goosebumps i mean this is the largest mass grave in the united states and you know how many bodies are out there and just. this truly has become a grim symbol of the current condemning in new york. this is where we will too one more level of deaths are going to be so great that. we're going to have to bury them maybe in part because maybe in powder. maybe but
5:53 am
we're going to have to we won't be able to handle this they had next to the hospital trailer tractor trailer is refrigerated. to handle the overflow. we were poor use. and i think you. do you know he's a nurse and one of your hospitals. she's been in both the critique of the way this pandemic was handled since day one here definitely walking into work and don't you know we no longer know what we're looking into we don't know. we don't know we've been in the d.n.a. you took part in numerous demonstrations. can you explain to us why are you worried protesting against protective equipment it should have been a decision of who gets a mass and does it that's and you me everybody in health care if we are such a weed to start that they can't telling us don't use. the mass because you don't
5:54 am
need it and we don't want to waste them. i don't know even the management of the hospital you work in was that was telling you that i. should not wear we don't want to see people wearing masks because we don't want to waste them that we didn't have enough masks we had no gowns. so this is just sounds crazy to me. how is that even possible that if you didn't have any so what happened was we had some but we never have so many people in isolation that you would run now so we would have 12 isolations in a unit in a think a given time and now we're talking about $100.00 people we quickly ran out because they didn't anticipate what it would be like or how much they would me and of course thinking about costs so am i going to buy hundreds and hundreds of them and
5:55 am
not knowing how many i'm going to need i can't it's not a matter of money right because money is there the united states is the richest country on earth still it is expensive to most on its people per capita the money went through the wrong people or the wrong place in. the billionaire's made money during the pen and paper and the poor people still struggle they were worried about big corporations you worry about the corporation they might not be workers to work and run. because the field going to make it but he's not the one doing the work i've seen reports in the local press in new york to some nurses who put on a stress as a protective equipment i mean the picture the real it really did happen they did really not because like i said we ran out before i hang in there yeah it was from the door so ok so i didn't count as 30 i can leave the room with that but i'm going
5:56 am
to have to hang it in the door because when i come back. i have to come back and i'm not going to have another gown those. gallons. it was never meant to stay on and it was never made to use a once over and over again you don't bring soldiers to war and you know give them weapons and you tell them yeah go out there and go luck you know try to figure it out hopefully you can kill the enemy if you take his weapon and then you should be ok. the lead they have been here when they go out there and throw gases and people they have good gear they have a good man behind the mask that we should have been using. nobody helped us you know it was our own we had to fight her every day we got the hospital what they had to say about these allegations but unfortunately they refused to give us
5:57 am
a proper interview instead they sent a standard reply that says quote we are continuing to move on in earth to ensure our health care workers have access to proper p p e i think that the system was operating in the high capacity and at the greatest humanitarian crisis and the century and the richest country most powerful and yet has the worst response there is are well countries that. china did so much better than. you. can explain that in this 1000000 skews if we had the resources the money the intelligence we have some of the. scientist everything here and yet we still couldn't get it together. we thought we should also visit another state florida because it has become a new coronavirus hot spot in the u.s.
5:58 am
over the last 7 days 73000 new cases. i've been registered there more than any other state at the moment there are over 400000 going to firms cope with 19 cases in florida and it's twice as many as new york has had and 5 times more than the whole of china has experienced since the beginning of the pandemic so if new york used to be america's covert 19 epicenter now it seems to have shifted to florida and we're going to cross its state line any minute now.
5:59 am
oh yes. and the connection too long to last him should ask for the last company and seeing him down the rest day for the match promotion commission. branches just shoot on disk in the. asian community no mommy. teach it mom. i know you care so sad i'm not going to much to you mama it's just our.
