if you're born into a minority family if you're born into a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your life chances people die on average 15 years younger that you're going into generational poverty. it's a tough fight every day to meet your needs and the needs of your family. the world is driven by a dream shaped by one person. thinks . we dare to ask.

for. greetings and salyut ation. as we continue to navigate these uncertain times we can always rely on one great constant one bedrock to hold on to chaos climbs the ladder and that my over and. is greed and corruption yes you heard me clearly i said greed and corruption because no matter what humanity is spacing war or famine pandemic trying to see the new christopher nolan film about having to go to peter greed and corruption never ever. seem to wane in

their influence over our societies and 2020 yes the year that has given us a global pandemic trump versus biden in the loss of supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg not even 2020 is immune to greed and corruption as this week jason leopold a bevy of journalists and researchers working at buzz feed in the international consortium investigative journalists along with more than 100 news organizations and 88 countries have revealed that 5 global banks j.p. morgan h.s.b.c.'s standard chartered bank deutsche bank and bank of new york mellon have put greed and corruption over decency in public good. color me shocked according to buzz feed a treasure trove of secret u.s. government documents real these giants of western banking move trillions of dollars in suspicious transactions enriching themselves and their shareholders while

facilitating the work of terrorists kleptocrats and drug kingpins and that the us government despite having the power to do something. does nothing to stop this the secret files are made up of suspicious activity reports or sars for short they were filed with the u.s. department of treasury spine anshul crimes and forstmann network between the years 1900 $99.20 and that these sars reports document more than 2 trillion 2 trillion dollars worth of dubious and possibly criminal transactions completely facilitated by these major lenders and other financial institutions as rachel woolley the director of financial crime and regulatory consultancy firm marigot told c.n.n. b.b.c. these files expose a systemic failure across the entire financial system and industry. but

yet if you or i cash a bad check overdraft our account or miss a payment these same banks will be oh so quick to fine you and me and remind us to abide by their financial rules or else face grave penalties that my friends is hypocrisy 101 and you can take that straight to the bank as we start watching hawks . in the city. there so let's see this is your state. crazed city this sleaze system just says so. so. welcome everyone to protest watching the hawks i am tired rove and i'm going to cry a major. i'm sorry i'm

a little angry today because of the all we hear day in and day out is trust our institutions trust us we know what's good for you do not question authority do not question the bankers do not question any of that yet over and over again from the mortgage scandal to live before the you know the basically said all of our credit industry was a completely flawed fraud and out of this how can we trust them well i think that come 2020 what we've seen is that you know trust in the banks was waning a whole ready but this is just one of those instances where as you pointed out in the introduction there's just going to be so many more questions about this i like the juxtaposition you did between somebody who may have missed the payment on their mortgage someone who may have had some tax issues you see banks closing in very quickly on individuals that were not necessarily thing that happened for some of these larger subnational actors or people who are really moving a lot of money and doing shady think it's amazing like they will rain down heaven and earth upon you with your overdraft be

a lot of times making it harder. then pay the bill in the earthquake you know because a lot of some of these banks will drop you know it's $2030.00 an overdraft it's crazy but yet when it comes to go i don't know you know reporting and then stopping the laundering of what drug money or you know that kind of thing well well maybe it . will help to keep those enterprises going oh yeah oh yeah you got deutsche bank other banks like read that 2 trillion dollars that's that that pretty much props a bank up you know i want to let you know to this is a major these files the just the you know the they have uncovered represent less than 0.02 percent of the more than 12000000 suspicious activity reports that financial institutions filed with the sun between 20072017 point 02 percent that means this 2 trillion might be the smallest number that they're playing with when it comes to potentially illegal activity in illegal money flowing in and out of these systems and so the question is you know if that's such

a small percentage what the rest of it look like but also why does it take so long we're talking about a thing and i think you originally gave like 5 years that they have been tracking this cynically but as with all things commonality that's not somebody it's birth go around so i question how long and how you know it but if they were before they actually got caught up that's a great question to ask just so people know the sars reports. they don't necessarily mean that the transactions are illegal that they're guilty but they mean they give kind of a paper trail and they allow people to kind of point in the right direction hey this transaction doesn't really make sense these numbers are too round you know these 2 businesses shouldn't be making these transactions it's just to kind of give people give the treasury you know a place to look what's interesting is when contacted by journalist investigating the source files the u.s. treasury department released a statement saying that quote the on the rise disclosure of sars is a crime that can impact the national security united states compromise law enforcement best to gauge and threaten the safety and security of the institutions

individuals who file such reports ameesha i challenge the treasury saying wouldn't the laundering of the illegal money in banks act at the actual crime that these are uncovering isn't that a greater threat to the security of the united states. manilow. the supreme court of the united states lost a giant this past week in justice ruth bader ginsburg a fierce defender of women's rights equality and giving a voice to the voiceless died friday from complications of pancreatic cancer the 87 year old lived a life many of us couldn't even fathom yet her journey reshaped the american consciousness ginsberg made it possible for women to open bank accounts without men cosigning ginsburg made it possible for women to gain loans for home ownership without being married or having a male on the loan ginsberg thought for women's equality in college sports and faults a workplace discrimination she was

a troll blazer for women's reproductive rights maintaining that women alone should decide when and if they become mothers again for was a progressive before it was in vogue and left a lasting legacy that is now being played out by president trump urgency in appointing a conservative justice to fill her seat this noosa sent shock waves through the nation with conservative the will to change the balance of the courts and democrats scrambling to protect the birchers ginsburg tilt so we near and dear and the progress she made for underprivileged groups. it has long been said that republicans cared more about the courts than democrats and technically we seen 'd that play out with the sheer amount of federal judges appointed by republicans over the past 2 decades. but democrats may be waking up to the threats posed by the judiciary that a lot more conservative battle wakening happened when the news of ginsburg stepped brainiacs in just a few short hours after the death of the same justice the democratic party raised

over $90000000.00 the bases gallon izing around our b.g. is death and the nomination fight that lies ahead with the senate and the presidency up for grabs democrats the windows of opportunity and now it's now or never. but $90000000.00 in 28 hours for candidates and progressive groups is a whopper what will them do with that kind of cash can they mobilize get people out and dismantle voter suppression in time for the november election money talks but will american voters listen. 1000000 dollar question. $90000000.00 a massive amount of money i mean look. crazy capitalist society that we are when you see $9090000000.00 be given to the democratic party that is another testament to the power and influence the. incredible absolutely and i think that that hits the nail on the head because you know we're an election cycle in a campaign season and you see candidates buying for dollars not only at the

presidential level but also senate races and other down ballot races $90000000.00 is a huge overhaul it's historic in the amount of time that they were able to actually get those donations it speaks to the legacy that was shaped by ruth bader ginsburg as well as the fact that that legacy is on the ballot in 2020 i don't think that everyone was cognitive of it until sadly her passing there was a lot of talk about all of the things that she worked to get done she was a fierce defender of women's equal rights she was a fierce defender of workplace making sure the workplace was safe for women and those who are trans and those who have different belief systems religiously she was someone who fought for gay marriage she's someone who has been a deciding vote on a lot of progressive issues before being progressive was the cool thing to do so right now all of that legacy is up for grabs basically because the republican party is pushing to have someone who was ultra conservative who will dismantle some of the key things that she helped to work toward. the one question that's what i see

a number that you think ok these are probably big money donors these are also small time donors i mean you don't get to 90000000 but the question i have is how are the democrats going to spend it because i mean i just read reports that joe biden believe in really have campaign offices or. a real ground game in swing states like michigan things like that where's that $90000000.00 go how do you turn that into votes that is the $90000000.00 question because what we're seeing is that you know the democrats know what they're up against and you have a trump who is now back to doing his rallies and energizing his base the respect of the kobe 1000 folks are showing up they are investing in commercials i think i spoke to you earlier about the huge ad buy that we saw joe biden do in georgia specifically targeting african-american males over the past the reef for months african-american males have been the contingency that the republican party is trying to push very hard at getting to come out for them but we also see that african-american male specifically are asking a lot of the democratic party in a what have you done for me lately kind of conversation and reminding them that

that vote is not automatically in the bed of the democrats so i think we're going to see more more outreach towards black men but we're also going to see and i'm hopeful that you know the report that you spoke of earlier where we're seeing in the midwest not as much of a ground game as would be expected considering the midwest i would say is up for grabs this election cycle think that you know there will be a reiteration of why that's important and shelling out cash in those ways as well but honestly this is a turnout race so democrats have to make sure that they're not just pushing against all things that donald trump is but also showing what joe biden would do should he become president. use vision talk about your vision for the future every minute. from the bench and definitely was and i call him of the judicial history of this country and our social history without a doubt absolutely and i think that you know it speaks to her power across generations because millennial is and those you know in that next group are still very disheartened by what happened in our looking towards having someone on that

bench and having someone in the white house who can protect the things that she fought for hopefully for you are everybody as we go to break some of the you can also start watching the hawks on the man portable t.v. which is available on all platforms coming up thanks to rick. just whistleblower it has now come to light that immigrant women being held at a homeland security and u.s. border patrol concentration camp not the tension sever were subject to grotesque surgical and medical procedures they did not consent to or even know about immigration attorney allen or jr joins us state to watch in the books.

on this edition of the program we discussed the passing of the 2 towering figures supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg and america's preeminent russian expert steven cohen both will be remembered for good reasons the latest bush. cast calendar is downright alfonzo among. those changing page change dard served our. his 1st

words were at a low a c. or a challenging post you've got 2 years to live. i have no doubt that what happened was scriven. that's causing trademark it is a $1000000000.00 industry these companies have a huge financial motivation to sow these problems there are numerous stocks showing that doc says we're keen to test that's right concentrates right insights of its own that patients want gives them says the wrong stoplight long term system and why they would give me i'm sick each of those years day to day and people still die i don't always question or so i tried being hard to live when so many have.

left but 2020 alexion cycle in america continues to ratchet up so do attacks on immigrants though they aren't receiving the headlines and outrage they want war. immigration and customs customs enforcement or ice whistleblower detailed allegations of abuse at a georgia detention center the nurse dombo who worked at the center while the complaint last week expressing concern over an abnormally high number of hysterectomy being performed on spanish speaking women in the nurse's complaint she spoke of how the detained women didn't fully understand why they were getting a hysterectomy a procedure that removes all or part of the uterus rendering a woman incapable of bearing children but wounds didn't stop there her complaint goes on to describe in detail the failures of the detention center to protect

people from corona virus this included refusing to test the taney who had covert 1900 and creating faulty medical records one detainee confessed the money was included in the complaint said her medical treatment left her shaken and confused the women all refused to be identified out of fear of retaliation from immigration authorities this is the type of complaint you think would calls heads to roll and bring a campaign cycle swift screeching halt with explanations about what's going on and when they will in but thus far this story of medical malfeasance forced their lies ation and potentially life threatening covert 19 spread is barely making a blip in the 247 news cycle the fervent voice of immigrant advocacy groups civil rights organizations and immigration activists and attorneys push congress to act to date over $170.00 members of congress including speaker nancy pelosi called for an immediate inquiry. dr a they were there at the medical director of the ice health services corp which

oversees health care and the agency's defensive detention system quote the italy disputes the impact that detainees are used for experimental medical procedures here tell us more about this story and the ongoing fight for immigrant rights is immigration attorney alan or welcome alan. thank you for having me well alan there has been a litany of abuses and complaints of abuse from whistleblowers as a top administration clamp down on undocumented immigrants and asylum seekers continues to grow and expand why do you think this particular story isn't getting as much attention as some of the other like the children in cages and family separations accusations of rape and sexual assaults lack of food and hygiene items why was this story particularly lost in the shuffle. i think people are kind of numb to this story and i think that it is resonating with some people and it's resonating with from our own polling with the suburban women the trump actually trying to win among their number one issue that they're voting against the trumpet

ministration on are deciding not to go vote on is the treatment of detention and children and now women so to say that we're hearing about how for i think that's a compound thing a covert 19 and also understanding that there is not a right to believe generally if something like this happened it would be outrageous because you would say i don't believe this happened but at this time and 2020 people realize that ministration and the courts are capable of doing anything and while this was an example of something that happened in the land of it might be really insurance fraud is the most agree we've not found and we have made complaints going all the way back to may of the treatment of these individuals in these concentration camps attention for prisons whatever you want to call 'd them where they really haven't committed a crime because under the only covert 19 procedures that we are from that these are . these individuals that have been released in the 1st place they cannot be raped

molested or ignored so this is just the compounding of things that we've seen over and over again not just in 2020 but since 20 and great to point out you know as part wrenching as these claims are they aren't technically un-american if you look at our history forced sterilization on women of color particularly black women native americans and latinos has gone on for decades in this country we saw in mental health and jail good and prisons and it was a regular process to control groups of underprivileged and poor women and men considering this history shouldn't more voices be out front in pushing for an investigation and answers to what's happening in the irwin county detention center in georgia. so i think that you read that there was no experimentation it doesn't say that these procedures were actually happening right but it was a back away a middle ground boy answer that really wasn't a good detailed answer i think the biggest thing on everybody's ticket right now is

that you've got to cut this off at the head of 2020 has to be a change here from the top or it's only going to get worse and no matter how much you do we honestly believe that there's an inspector general that go in on something because we've already seen where the reports have been fraudulent jennings even the ability the other thing that i think is important for this show in this audience is these are all private prison banks the quite private that. run for money that were started by jeff ashton earth month he got in as the attorney general before the president said that he should not this is one of the things that the drug administration and its against it should be no profit making in these facilities because if you have a product i mean just so many bad in order to make them and once again to make this even more green and something that i don't know the thing in the reporting or not is that they have been trying to deport people then make the claim faster than they could actually intervene for they will never be found again and if this happened rape victim is appen people that hysterectomy and. actually the representative from texas she was actually stepped in to stop one of the victims all of them from being

deported the other day because they had already been and it's a perfect the one that he's in all the very day he's getting stiffed away to a fight and a flop the fighting because congress has to stop or that you can now testify about the procedures that are going on for the question isn't for me it happened because i believed the women and also when the. facts are 5 stories i believe her and i believe she made the reports and was demoted to her job once again black women standing on the front line performing rights everybody making the movie getting a demotion being a whistleblower and this was really something of a battle that or because you might further compliant i'll call them stuff if you need to soften when stuff over and not happen and not have an overt not be able to go to doc i think it's really weird i mean that in the facility you came over i think is akin to direct that's incredible i just want to do

a quick follow up to you when you mention the difference of like private you know these private prisons these private detention centers where they're holding them and then legless a government run for soldiers as an attorney trying to fight for these people's rights what are the extra hurdles that a private purpose prison puts in front of you when you're trying to get these people a fair shake. law areas. and the i think what what i really want to point out in the story is that these women were. and there are afraid to come to the united states government and say what happened to them what does that say to what does that say we are when victim one of the most liberal and free countries in the world errantly supposedly and even after having a hysterectomy in appropriately or didn't say that would happen to me for fear of retaliation that should never happen in this image here in this century. a agree with you 100 percent alan this is more of a global question and what do you think is on the horizon in immigrant rights here

in the u.s. do you think that immigration reform has been a frontal piece of the 2020 a lecture cycle as you can recall early on in the election in the election cycle campaign cycle there were so many debates specifically around immigration a lot of that has died down we didn't see it at the d.n.c. or the r n c specifically being talked about with the exception of donald trump posing out all immigrants as rapists and murderers per what his usual but what do you think is going to happen do you think that we're going to see it cycle back to advocacy for immigrants right what do you think is on the horizon come november and beyond. ember the supreme court on the horizon that's all about immigration well that is the backstop of venice and the fact we need these undocumented people and illegal and undocumented like human being count for this and that's how they're treated in the prison rather they get to go or a representative before they're x. deported how we treat all of these things are before the supreme court and these issues of the cases of them going forward the last battleground for every issue on

civil rights and human rights and what is amazing to me is in a world that we believe in turn you think that the people how they should do things now there's just 3 people in this world nobody's all in the united states out i haven't heard of any international organization coming in and saying wait a minute what are you doing to women what about the country women are from why are they not coming in and saying wait a minute what are you doing this is very much for giving those countries money i'm sure that money quiet and burned about their own that it's always in our own country the international government should be stepping in to back away from thing we're going to go for a long way from everything united nation. and all of us of united agreement i think that it's problematic so you do it or what i thought that we have a president who supposedly are. grand prize for making peace in the middle east but he's not making peace here in its own hemisphere we need a drink on his own sort of land and that's very problematic that's

a powerful point to bring up because if you truly want to stop a lot of the immigration and the refugee crisis you've got to get the countries where these people are coming from and trying to escape you've got to bring some peace and stability to those countries and i think that's an often overlooked element in this conversation of what we could do from a foreign policy angle to try to help these people but hey you know it's the united states we don't really want to help anyone anymore we really just want to you know beat up and beat our chests and talk about how great we are while our backyard literally burns alan i want to thank you so much for coming on and educating our audiences as you always do sir thank you so much and keep up the great work out there. thanks for having me. or bored as a topic gets under my skin. it's just crazy that something like that could happen and again we don't see the international community calling out but also we don't see enough people in america right here you know pointing to the devastation either because this is something you just can't reverse no you can all right everybody

that is our show for you today remember in this world we are told that we are loved enough so i tell you wall i love you. and i'm sure keep on watching all those hawks out there and have a great night everybody. you know the stock market as a subset of the economy has undergone a transformation become a plaything for speculators fueled by incredibly egregious money printing by a rogue central bank and this is causing all manner of dislocations malinvestment societal changes. we're segregated in there by social class. people also in poverty by 1st place

if you're born into a poor family odd you're born into a minority family if you're born into a family that only has a single parent that really constrains your life chances people die on average 15 years younger than if you're born into generational poverty. it's a it's a fight every day to meet your needs and the needs of your family. and i almost feel some of the same wrong all right old roles just don't hold. any new world beliefs yet to shape our disdain becomes to educate and in games from an equal betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart when

choose to look for common ground. thank the e.u. fails to agree on sanctions against dozens of belorussian officials over last month's election despite pleas for action from the country's opposition leader the personal data of thousands of police officers is leaked in belarus in an online campaign that opposition leader. says she supports shows no sign of easing 6 weeks on from the disputed presidential vote. also european countries introduced a new restrictions amid a surgeon crown of cases with both france and spain seeing a record numbers over the weekend. and thousands of files are leaked implicating some of the worlds.
