business i'm show business i'll see you then. we look at the solutions we look take a deep dive into the issues we've been chatting about all year now today we're going to be talking with him or also known as an l w breakdown cast been following him on twitter for a long time plus. you know the great thing about this new universe stacey is that people who might not get on get on. they rise to the top and suddenly they're like wow these people are awesome and i would put. in that.

greetings and sell you to shoot. united states president john f. kennedy famously stated ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country what makes this message this montra so vital is that it is true not just for us service working outside the halls of government but for those working inside those halls as well but quite frankly my friends as we have seen over and over and over and over again our elected leaders and government officials are no longer asking themselves what they can do for the country and they are instead asking what the country can do for them their party and their corporate lobbyists because if they did serve the country and not themselves then the epic water crisis that took place in flint michigan back in april 2014 would never and should never have ever happened. only now after more than 6 long years the people

of flint michigan are finally getting some restitution for having their drinking water poisoned by the negligence and greed of their own state government in a subtle man announced on aug 20th n.b.c. news reports that the state of michigan has agreed to pay $600000000.00 to residents whose health was afflicted by lead tainted drinking water and that under that deal the state has agreed to devoting 80 percent of the money to people who were younger than 18 during the period when flint was using river water and while 600000000 may sound like this massive number for many in flint that doesn't even begin to compensate for the losses and anguish they have suffered as flint resident the key awakes who since 2014 has faced 22 miscarriages of 2 separate sets of twins she told the daily beast the damage is done it's reversible i've lost

4 babies that no amount of money can compensate me for. accountability decency compassion these are the things money cannot buy us politics but they are exactly what you can do for your country only if we start watching the hawks. you want to go on a city you street you want to see. there so you can see that this is joyce state. graves city slaves systemic deception is the late show which. some. welcome we're going to watch in the heart of and i love you. so music it's pretty incredible i want to start i want to start and throw this quote to choose from michigan state attorney general dana nestle who's a democrat ran as a democrat she told the media after completing this settlement she told the media

quote healing flint will take a long time but our ongoing efforts and today's settlement announcement are important steps on helping all of us move forward $600000000.00 a lot of money i'm glad to see the settlement but cam. the city of flint truly moved forward given the sins that the state committed against them absolutely not and even though 600000000 sounds like a lot of money in theory you can't put a price tag on what has happened to the citizens of point we're talking long long term effects we're talking young kids who have lost their teeth we're talking people who now have respiratory issues we're talking people who now have 8 the intestinal issues we're talking about generations ongoing that are going to have some serious problems when it comes to their development if they live at all so it's it bothers me when it's talked about in media and not necessarily here but i have heard it in several news cycles that this is some amazingly great thing yes you want to make sure that people are compensated but there is no compensation for

what happened in flint and we know that there is a extreme amount of culpability for both the city and the state who knew long before anyone got sick that this was what the potential was and where it was going to happen but i mean when you look back at what happened it's you know they basically the government said hey we're going to switch from detroit's water system and start sock. up out of the flint river now if anyone pays any attention to rivers in this country they're not the cleanest of water sources and to me the reason they did is they estimated that you know they'd save about $5000000.00. so that you have to turn around 600000000 which i agree with you it's great that they did it but let's remember the state barked at that they had to reach a settlement meaning that there was negotiations meeting the meeting that someone was pushing back and trying to save these people who had nothing to do with their water being poisoned this is purely hey we need to save a buck how can we do that what does that say about the state of our infrastructure in the state of the mines in office when now 6 years later they're still fighting

to give us a settlement out to people that you screwed over it says that we don't care about poor black people the reason why we solve it was an area that got that level of disrespect that level of deficit you know unconcerned about the population is because these are largely low income black people i sat and worked at the u.s. environmental protection agency which covers all of the midwestern states at the time we knew what was happening in plant the reports went out it was said that you know they did not want to push the state because the state was pushing back the state knew exactly what was going to happen this was before the crisis even occurred up to 5 years before the crisis occurred we knew what the water was looking like we knew the damage it would cause they just didn't care and that's the thing that gets me why you know maybe your experience there is that would help with this but like it to me it's like isn't the duty of someone in a position to e.p.a. isn't it their duty to say you know what we have to push back these are people's lives like that to me that decision making is insane just because the state pushes

back is of law as we're talking it would be and you would be exactly correct if you e.p.a. did also have in historical context some relationships with these private sector companies as well i think we have to remember that and the administrator at the time had been removed because the obama administration knew that that was a fireball but again it was something that both knew long before there was any action taken on that always. comes back to the revolving door we're going to go work for this corporation and we come in oh i get tired so there's we don't want to be that bad. just ugly ugly ugly ugly but things were good in 600000000 but they should get a lot more the hope that that money actually sees the citizens of flint doesn't just get bottled up and rotate. the ongoing discrimination against latinos across america has never been more evident from family separation and unsanitary conditions that immigrant detention centers to rolling back health care protections and essentially throwing a phylum law into a bonfire there seems to be no into the truck administration's abuse of immigrants

asylum laws in america were designed to protect immigrants who literally are running to save their lives in war torn regions and many cases as well as to protect themselves against ongoing abuses like gun and gang warfare sex crimes and other atrocities for women whose last resort is to find comfort for them and their young children in a foreign land where their unwanted it's a better state than they surely have should they remain in their native lands and just when you thought matters couldn't get any worse but need a backdrop of a global pandemic the troubled ministration is restricting work permits for asylum seekers this unprecedented move would ultimately leave them destitute without homes or food customarily asylum seekers apply for work permits and are granted those permits to cover their basic necessities like food and housing because they're not eligible for government assistance programs most asylum seekers are young women with children the trip administration's move isn't shocking considering they've implemented and proposed over

a dozen policies restricting eligibility for asylum in the u.s. but considering the threat of cope with 19 mounting deaths and infection rates there couldn't be a worse time to leave asylum seekers with no options but the chip ministration defends the changes to asylum law by arguing that the long standing policies encourage illegal border crossings and allow migrants to misuse humanitarian aid. there is absolutely no evidence of a silent broad just like there's none for mass voter fraud but a little thing like backs doesn't stop trump or his justice department that's complicit in a race in black and brown immigrants those powerful would you see it all laid out the way you just laid that out because i think it's i think it's very true and you know the thing that always gets me with these you know especially on the right is they always have this thing of like well it's you know they're asylum seekers but they'll be lazy that want to live off the system they're immigrants but they're going to be lazy but then you put so many blockades in front of them to actually get a job to actually contribute to society but then you get mad when they don't have

you know when they're not just boggles my mind our asylum law wasn't perfect before and i would argue it took a very long time for anybody to get approved much less actually be able to get jobs during this process but these protections are fundamental part of american society in trying to reach justice for people who are literally running to save their lives the majority of them having small children along the way this isn't necessarily something that we have seen in the past the conservatives have always tried to you know strip immigrants certain rights in this country but they have typically kept their hands off of asylum seekers they were a special protected class and what we see with the trump administration is that they've basically flipped the lid on all of that and thrown their whole anti immigrant sentiment in with asylum seekers as well it seems to me this upsets me because the i've never been a fan in my life because i can't see the humanity of being an isolationist you know look i get it that there's

a lot of issues with globalization that are detrimental to a lot of people within our own country and other countries around the world and there's certain limits you want to put on that in terms of keeping jobs at home and things like that and corporations you know trying to milk bucks from you know low rent workers and overseas and things like that but at the end of the day you still have to have an open heart and when someone comes to your shore saying hey i'm trying to seek asylum for this kind of persecution that's why we have was the. liberty that's what america was founded upon in principle obviously there was a lot of other things going on but in principle it was like hey we'll take all these people in and we want to be that melting pot this goes directly against that it absolutely does i think that's a great point to make and one of the reasons why this story is making particular news is because of the backdrop of covert 1000 so you're talking about not allowing people to have their basic necessities met by getting these jobs which meant the majority of them are low wage jobs anyway so they would be barely scraping by even with them however once you remove that there is no safety net for these individuals at all so we're talking about a population that is going to be homeless we're talking about

a population that won't be able to feed their children and we already have american citizens who are going through this and cope at 19 is only making those situations worse as well and let's also not forget that unless you're a native american. you came here seeking a. native american or brought here against your will through slavery you came here seeking asylum you came here seeking opportunity and lesser of those 2 groups i just mentioned earlier that syria's story is asylum seekers and immigration and your i have 2 percent correct because that is how we became the melting pot nation that we are people were leaving their countries fleeing religious persecution freeing persecution all multiple levels and coming here for this land that was supposed to be of opportunity to help them build and grow and now we're seemingly punishing people for the exact same thing that made america what america is today there is a dream and it's not been a perfect dream it's never been a pervert dream but there is a dream of what the potential of the united states could be and we lived up to it any kind of real fashion if even before i mean look trumps kind of exposed

a lot that was kind of already going under the surface he's exposed a lot of that corruption criminality and downright just meaningless it's a meanness to say we're going to deny asylum seekers aboard best just mean i think at the moment it absolutely is and what we're seeing with this is this in a long process they're going to have to wait up to a year to get their application approved and after that year they're going to have to wait another 9 months to see whether or not they'll be able to even be eligible for jobs once they're here that is almost a year and that's over a year and a half of trying to figure out what to do with your life and you have young children in tow it couldn't be a sadder or more detrimental you know place to be especially if you're persecuted burslem if you're coming here because you're under persecution and now you have to add more years on the waiting where you're trying to escape from or what waiting in an ice detention center. it's so disgusting oh all right everybody as we go to break over there you can also start watching the hawks on demand for the

brand new portable t.v. which is available on all platforms so do not you do not pick it up you better pick this up app up because it's hot all right coming up we talk to the circus that is the democrat. republican conventions would be host of the dogs in ny yes leak joins us and you do not want to miss this stay tuned to watching the whole. forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. must obey the orders given by human beings except where such conflict with the 1st law should your identification or should be very careful about official intelligence at the point obesity is too great trust ever.

take on various shots and with artificial intelligence we'll summon the demons. a robot must protect its own existence. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy confrontation let it be an arms race. scary dramatic development only mostly exists i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. if you go to the symphony and they orchestras warming up and each musician is his tuning his or her instrument so you hear this year all these sounds or noise put it but it's it's

a constant a it's disorganized and then the the band the orchestra plays and you get the music so what the brain does. the maker gene builds you this is organized or orchestrated these one collapses. so after 2 plus years of political posturing manufactured photo ops and 20 person panel after 20 person panel on c.n.n. we are now finally in the homestretch of the run for the white house here in the united states of america and it has been convention fever these last few weeks my friends while both the libertarian and the green parties had bass needing online conventions this year with the libertarians actually breaking their own party's glass ceiling and nominating their 1st female president she'll candidate joe jordan

said it was of course the 2 party dictatorships convention circus acts that were getting all of the headlines starting with trump campaign senior adviser kimberly guilfoyle rousing battle cry to an empty room ladies and gentlemen. enjoy. your empty room all about to nobody in the room and of course who can forget last week's powerful indorsement of joe biden by former secretary of state colin powell the gravity of this moment. is matched by the gravity of the threat that iraq's weapons of mass destruction pose to the world. let me now turn to those deadly weapons programs and describe why they are real and present dangers to the region and to the world powerful argument by bob collins joining us today to discuss the

political convention circus acts that on the road to election day and here in the u.s. is the host of productive tonight the one and only lead camp lee thank you as always for joining us. tyrrell good to see you again lead this year's democratic national convention featured progressive socialist leftist luminaries like former ohio governor john case it and former hewlett packard c.e.o. meg whitman and as i mentioned before the progressive luminary that is former secretary of state colin powell we what does this say about the state of the democratic party when some of their biggest guest speakers are well. republicans. but well i think it's just beautiful tyrrell to see the 2 parties getting along like this you know they they agree on so my people act like they're at each other's throats or there's some kind of battle here but you know if you look at the the 1st of all the republicans showing up at the d.n.c.

but on top of that if you look at the stuff that's not being mentioned at both conventions because apparently it doesn't need discussing and meaning both parties agree on it well that's a lot of the core issues of this country you know like largest surveillance state in the world never really mentioned corporations buying elections not talked about anymore are endless wars are really disguised a 1000 military bases around the world not just because pentagon failed its audit cool with that wall street run wild environmental collapse capitalism apparently doesn't have any flaws i mean if you look at what they agree on really it's it's great to see him coming together i'm just a big fans of coombe aiyar moment truly truly well that was a great brag that only and i am going to go dig a little bit deeper into that that big tent and what that actually means that no you cover it someone your show as well there are many who would argue that in order to win against trump in november you need to bring in

a blue disaffected republican voters by allowing prominent neo-con figures like colin powell and bill kristol under the tent and accepting pap money from the antitrust republican pundit project the lincoln project what are the dangers that you think are inherent in these kinds of actions where the democratic party long term. when you need enthusiasm to win in any of these elections and recent polls show that biden the people that are actually enthusiastic about voting for biden is something like 9 percent it's a minuscule number and you know who's going to stand in line for our many hours to vote when their enthusiasm is at 9 percent if they wanted to create enthusiasm that . democratic party you would actually speak to all of the progressive issues you know all the issues that bernie sanders and others have brought up you know health care and and ending our endless militarism and those type of things but they clearly have no interest in nat i mean the d.n.c. was just a victory lap trampling on any remaining progressive ideas that might be in the

democratic party in fact john case in his speech said quote i know joe biden and he won't turn to the left like that was a selling point so you know the democratic party yet again doing their best to lose this election you know and they're and they're largely although they will talk about voter suppression here and there they're largely not speaking to the fact that one out of every 12 voters maybe it's one out of every 10 have already been purged from the voter rolls i mean the level of corruption and fraud in this election is going to be immense and not of of course the way donald trump talking about it he's using it as some sort of ploy so that he can act like the results are not legitimate if he were to lose. one of the things that i think struck me watching the democratic convention last week was the appearance in the time given to bloomberg and i thought there was a lot of friction whether you're on the progressive side of the democratic party or

not there are people who are really frustrated and didn't understand why bloomberg was actually there what are your comments on that. well i think he's there to speak to the moneyed class that funds both of these parties and funds you know the democrats very highly so they they it was kind of a sign to the to the money donors the big donors have you you know he's one of us biden's one of us he's always been one of us don't you if you have millions upon millions of dollars don't have any concerns about continuing to donate to joe biden he's not going to regulate wall street he's not going to come down hard on corporations. it was i think it was assigned to that class of of individuals a tiny number in america that is that is extracting all of the wealth at a degree that we've never even seen even though we were already in an equal society but now it's just gotten even worse in the past few years and it was assigned all

them that a vote for biden is a is a vote for corporations it's a vote for wall street you know you mentioned earlier all the pings the biggest 2 parties you know true you actually agree on at the end of the day because that's what makes the 2 party dictatorship work in the midst of all this hyped up partisan coverage of the conventions the new cycle is apparently forgotten about one of the most bipartisan efforts in washington d.c. these days and that is the removal of socialist president nicolas maduro in venezuela will you follow this story since the party beginning where those efforts stand to bear on our democrat republican elites in washington still getting so googly eyed over u.s. backed regime change in that country. well that's another great example of of a topic an issue that you can't see of bit of daylight between the republicans and the democrats if you actually joe biden had an ad of one of his earliest a campaign ads a few months ago said it would listed like majority chavez castro and then trump as if trump is some sort of socialist leaders something it's bizarre but basically

they were trying to say that oh my door as a dictator trumps a dictator blah blah blah but the 2 parties completely agree on just destroying any country that even remotely has some form of socialism nationalizes oil fields things like that and as you mentioned it did this attempted coup just continues to collapse now they kind of don't really want to talk about in your mainstream media because they don't want you to notice how thoroughly it has collapsed but the latest statement of a quote unquote support for one go i don't know the fake president who's never received a single vote. to be president of venezuela only had 19 countries on it now considered why don't the acting president that's down from 50 which of course is still a lot less then whatever $200.00 nations around the world and now we're down to just 19 mainly us puppets that still believe that glorified frat boy

is the president of venezuela leave you are a man of few words and you know how to use them but now i think you're so much always for coming on and keep up the great work of redacted tonight you're a gift to the television industry on comedy mr thank you so much sir. you 2 guys. if you're anything like me in sex they just aren't your thing they could be pesky annoying and make outdoor activities a little harder to enjoy but for most of us there is a special disdain reserved for the world's deadliest animal mosquitoes these small long legged flying nuisances leave welts and their weight but they also spread diseases like malaria west nile gallo fever and more mosquito ringback nets and sprays only go so far but a scientific breakthrough just might decrease mosquito borne illnesses in the florida keys state officials voted to allow the 1st test of the united states of weed lying genetically modified mosquitoes in january 2021 florida workers will set

out boxes of the lab created with speedos that will grow one to normal looking males these insects will in turn trick female mosquitoes into maybe because of the unique to net code assigned to the 5 by mosquitoes any the male offspring was altering the mating would die over time the lack of females which linked the mosquito swarms in decrease their ability to spread potentially fatal illnesses. wow that is that is crazy so basically we're committing. eugenics to genetically modified mosquitoes as wild absolutely but males tricking females happen. it's on the web and happens in these dating apps all the time so now i guess we're you know just adding a little bit of science to the prospects mosquito kept fishing for everybody that has a hard sell wow that is are so for you today remember everyone in this world we are not told the love the so i tell you all i love you i robot for and i'm

a nice across keep are watching those hawks out there have a great day and night everybody. who put oh yeah they have souping you. yes for on. yes yet sweet. for on we've gotten pretty busy work to be here i just can't be you know pretty good to be you know yet spot on so you're going to do is look you just beautiful they take you there are good words for it but. these are the stories of men who contemn magic life without fashion

without a sense of style without things that might be seen as weakness in this masculine world but they still demonstrate incredible strength of spirit to live as they choose. to view skill. points for the. you know we look at the solutions we look take a deep dive into the issues they've been chatting about all year now today we're going to be talking with more also known as n l w of the breakdown of caste and following him on twitter for a long time listen to his cock ask the other great thing about this new universe is that people who might not get on media get on and then they rise to the top and suddenly they're like wow these people are awesome and i was and i failed in

that camp. in the troubled 19 seventies a group of killers rampage street thugs of northern ireland that was coordinated loyalist attacks particularly the population of tens of were forced to flee their homes and what was striking to put these attacks was a fear you see the police actually took part in the attacks so instead of preventing it they were active participants in the burning of the streets in belfast. more than 100 innocent civilians with. the review can seniors and we found out more i was surprised about the extent. to which the inclusion was involved in some of those cases the killers would lead to be named. and i think it went to do very very top i think.

it was here where. you know on the go ahead. of his in the us if he could no should default state of emergency care if you overnight. continue sometimes extremely violent protests are for offices there allegedly paralyze a black man by shooting them in the. comment coming up see what's going on over night while over in the u.k. the black movement also reappears in the headlines as the b.b.c. temporarily scraps of lyrics for 2 colonial era songs but our debate guests think the issue goes much wider in fact. we're an unequal society and indeed the racial lines society you know it's one of the.
