6:30 am
predict that is the state of the economy or tens of millions of citizens it appears what is called the case shaped recovery is permanently dividing the country and the house and have nots this seems to be acceptable for those who are. of the and those that say i don't know about that get a list of all the wealthiest. people you want to make i wonder why it's why do you know. how lucky. we hope to be but the year i wrote some friends of the us are still so but the so beautiful thing to do something to see. yeah of
6:31 am
the chart. they have about the us that is the simple dollar lack of self-discipline and the most simple but the one that you know with that. greetings and saudi reality show series couldn't pack any more twists and turns in steps this season's big bad i'm talking of course covert 19 to slap the united states president congressional republicans and viewers like us right upside the head i mean i am. and all the fallout from the brand name in chief's bout with covert is still yet to be determined the government run health care currently nursing our president and his covert stricken administration has apparently been
6:32 am
bang on with even the president tweeting doctors nurses and all the great walter reed medical center and others from likewise credible incredible institutions who have joined them are amazing tremendous progress has been made over the last 6 months and fighting it this pledge with their help i am feeling well. which is rather a lariats coming from a man whose party in political platform states on equivocally a government run health care is about as diabolical as naked cactus climbing or as economist and former us secretary of labor robert rice tweets sure don't tell the republicans but at walter reed they have socialized medicine oh my gosh with the donald and his associates are the only flag waving mega capitalists who don't seem to have a problem feeding from the public trough when times get tough huff post is reporting that at least 5 companies with histories of violating environmental rules secured emergency government loans totaling as much as 32000000 to retain employees during
6:33 am
the early months of the coronavirus pandemic these are companies that have collectively paid more than $52000000.00 for it for in for in for environmental violation penalties in fact mal thanks to the federal reserve's decision to buy corporate bonds for the 1st time in u.s. history in order to save wall street from essentially destroying itself earlier this year when covert hit alexis goldstein with truthout reports that we the public together with the bed now own over 300 $15000000.00 in bonds of fossil fuel perms including those with a track record of environmental racism. so with the great leader heading back to the white house after basking in thousands upon thousands of dollars worth of publicly funded health care and big oil another corporate dream of staying alive through taxpayer backed federal reserve bailouts. how's that $1200.00 check they sent us back in spring feeling now guess it's time to start watching the hawks.
6:34 am
on a cd you st you want to. see. this is joyce state. graves see this latest systemic deception is the late show which. brings up. a world where more than watching our i robot and i will be across. boy a boy image of the pretty big news of i mean donald looks like he's out and back and all all from public public health care and you get the big companies come find out the companies that threatened our environment they got fined for pollution they're receiving good government money in the time of covert we're bailing out big oil the fed steps in meanwhile the americans are still waiting for that extra check to keep their lights on so it's amazing to me how we continually to watch the
6:35 am
american government decide time and time again to bail out these big businesses when all it would take is an act in congress to actually have another round of checks to americans who are still highly unemployed going into the holiday season with no end in sight even for those who are currently working who are on the chopping block we just were in a very bad place economically and i don't think that our leaders have been taken that seriously as they should yeah because i think that they live in their own kind of version of a covert bubble you know other big they kind of live in this world the i don't think they i mean a lot of them you know i don't think that they really have any real experience with what's going on with people on a daily day to day basis i mean you work alongside a lot. of these government things is it really that big of a divide the only way they get out of obligation because the majority of them don't actually they visit their districts in very small amounts of time typically around one raising if we're talking about senators before the most part they're they're getting bundled in bankrolled by large corporations and lobbyists so there's a very little connection between them in the places that they actually serve and
6:36 am
the air that is often listened to the most or that you know that spoken to the most is that of the lobbyist of the special interests not that of the everyday american i think that we resolve this definitely at the crash of 08 which i do think that president obama's administration did as much as they could could there be more obviously i think there was a lot of haggling between congress members at that time as well but this is all around it's extremely egregious and brush rating because what we heard during the last round of checks was that the money was too much they felt that people got too much there's a disconnect between how much things cost today yes i think that's the biggest pressure ration the rental cost for a one bedroom across this country have x. astronomically risen over the past 5 years and with the original check money that was sent out it might have covered maybe 2 month's rent that's not including any health care costs or other things that people have and that's a bridge smart aleck you'll suddenly hear politicians sit and talk about all day long how will giving you a little bit of money to help you through there's just too much $1200.00 too much you'll be on welfare all the time you'll never want to go back to work and all of
6:37 am
these excuses they use when it's our money at the end of the day what they're handing you back is your own money money that you already worked hard for him gave them to fund the government for situations like this it's absolutely yeah at least 41000000 in federal systems has been awarded the more than a dozen major donors the campaign tens of thousands of small businesses which found it very hard to get these emergency funds that were set aside to them these businesses however business is owned by members of congress they managed to land loans very quickly or by the family of hundreds of color that madly of members of suddenly oh men are ok you know it just gets pressure and because we continue to see that there are do. current rules for people who have connections but also people who are wealthy a lot of the money that was given out wasn't necessarily to those that was troubling businesses many of those were businesses that existed that would even count a small business as we saw you know a steakhouse as you say existed in the leg of a soup the money it's a very fresh rating to the average american citizen when you're watching that
6:38 am
happen it is i mean and then when you look at this big oil bailout that the fed is now put put us into according to researchers $56.00 oil and gas companies have issued $99300000000.00 worth of since the fed initiated its bailout of corporate debt markets back in march which is the 1st time the fed's done something like this where that's just taking directly on that debt as of late august the central bank has purchased over 350000000 in fossil fuel bonds dan wegner the editor of bailout watch said quote this is prolonging the life of the fossil fuel industry at a time when it needs to be phased out for communities and the climate basically fossil fuel kind of stepped up and said hey we're struggling right now even before cobra there were struggling during code less people driving but now hey hey bail us out we need help like we would bail out the airlines at the exact same time that we're hearing environmental activists around the globe including those here argue for reduction in the fossil fuels argue for us to look to alternative forms of energy yet we continue to fund money into something that on the back end we already
6:39 am
know is causing major environmental problems. for the people. there were many shocking and cringe worthy moments at the u.s. presidential debate between president donald trump and former vice president joe biden if you could get through the interruptions conspiracy theories and lies you might have found a few enlightening moments but that would have required you to get past the barrage of lies trump seems to not only to kill time and again but the types of lives that also put lives at risk. during the debate trump emphatically claimed his policies made insulin so cheap it's like water but alternative facts don't seem to get in the way of troops popularity on the issue a recent poll from the kaiser family foundation found that 46 percent of survey voters believe trump had a better plan to lower drug prices only 42 percent favored by displaying for most
6:40 am
people the drug like insulin cost the same as before if not more in reality insulin the popular diabetes drug cost roughly $300.00 a bottle in the united states most diabetics the $2.00 to $3.00 bottles per month and those with advanced stages of the disease require a whole lot more. champ is campaigning on lowering drug prices but folks just haven't seen that happen in the coburn 1000 hits or they just keep coming. with 51000000 americans unemployed and health care being tied to their jobs even those who had access to insulin before don't have it now the cost of insulin has forced many patients to resort to drug rationing which causes blood sugar levels to rise to fatal levels. but rest assured when there is market turmoil like in all things in underground market emerges in the underground insulin market a network of people with diabetes share any extra insulin they have free of charge . but just last year colorado was the 1st of 12 states to implement
6:41 am
a cap on co-payments for insulin but with the pandemic ravaging america the demand for insulin has gone up and insurance companies are taking advantage of it though it's illegal to share prescription medications it should also be illegal to price get out and allow the sick to die simply because they cannot afford medication i couldn't agree with you more the reason it's illegal to share medications you don't want people exchanging drugs which we do to other than someone gets sick but at the same time making it so a godly expensive just for someone to be able to afford insulin something that absolutely positively without about in order to live is absolutely ridiculous no it is and i think that to put it into full context we have to recognize that the high price of prescription drugs is a talking point on both sides of the aisle whether we're talking about donald trump or joe biden but the one differentiation we have to make here is that donald trump has been claiming for the past 2 and a half years that he has lowered prescription drug prices yet when people go to
6:42 am
actually fill those prescriptions things haven't changed for the most part there are some drugs like insulin that have actually gone up over the past couple of years and their cost in america as you know has the highest price for street prescription drugs of any nation on the globe and doesn't really have the. that healthcare outcomes that you would expect to come from it and cope at 19 has only proven to exacerbate issues that we already have around radius around prejudices systemic failures and eye health care system so this is just completely falling apart and it breaks my heart that there's an underground market out there i mean i'm glad that people are saying you know what the hell with the we got our share there's a bargain extra i'm sure a woman neighbor who also needs it like i'm happy that they're doing that i'm happy that it's free of charge but what does that say about the country when that's the case i mean when you especially when you look at the percentages of people who are having to ration their insulin because of the very cost of you know absolutely so studies and surveys that show that one in 4 people are actually rationing their insulin and it stinks because at the end of the day blacks hispanics native
6:43 am
americans or the people in this country that typically have diabetes more than anyone else they're also the ones who have bad benteke reactions at higher levels than anyone else a lot of this is contribute to living in food deserts not having access to quality or healthy food but the other part is you have a lot of minorities who typically don't have access to quality health insurance either so they're not able to readily you know have their blood pressure checked have these insulin checks when they need to so they're really dependent on a system that has failed them time and time again it. really should have people should be really angry about this whether you have know someone with if you're in the u.s. you probably do know someone with diabetes it's pretty easy to ministers given the amount of sugar and corn syrup that's shoved down our throats every day it's not it's not a hard disease to suddenly do. but people should be very upset about this because no one should have to choose between their their food on the table or the medicine they need and that is ridiculous when we try to claim to be this great country
6:44 am
absolutely and that is literally the question before many people right now they are whether they pay their food whether they pay rent whether they pay their utility bills because insulin is actually very expensive on average the majority of people who are in that higher tier of having serious that issues they're taking between for the. 6 bottles a month so if you're talking $300.00 to $400.00 per bottle that is a lot of extra cash coming out and again with the unemployment levels being what they are right now even for those who had health care that covered it before they no longer have it because of the unemployment so it becomes very difficult you know it really hurts too because they always say the argument against like socialized medicine all that all that kills innovation and normal want to innovate because they can't make money on it you know to me it's like are we really that horrible of a people that we can't say hey we can innovate in health care simply because we want to do good that we don't need to put a dollar value would tach to doing good in order to do it i mean come on let's step up and be the better angels of ourselves and fight back against this and get that
6:45 am
throw the greed argument out of the room for all the money out of it and actually start passing laws do provide health care for people so these people don't have to go to the black market and choose between food and life but you bring up a loss because according to the american diabetes association $36.00 additional states have introduced insulin co-pay legislation but the pandemic stalled all progress on them by a pandemic i also mean it's an election cycle and pharmaceutical companies have paid certain campaigns insulin prices are high in the u.s. because there are few if any limits that exist to regulate the pharmaceutical companies from jacking up the prices so this is one of those instances where regulation would really matter because it could make the these drugs available to more people and we're not going to see that regulation because there's too many people paid off in congress and local legislatures although by big pharma to ever begin to dream of really regulate many exactly when the top 3 places. politicians go after they leave congress that's not because they're just really smart scientists who know a lot about. it really
6:46 am
a couple of degrees. right everybody as we go to break remember that you could also start watching the hogs on the matter of the brand new portable t.v. which is now available on all platforms you have no excuse them. coming up our. brings us the latest on the battle with the controversy. and his new move back to the white house takes 2 to one. elderly forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. i robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the 1st law show your identification for should be very careful about
6:47 am
artificial intelligence to the point is to create a trance. playing on various shots and with artificial intelligence will summon the demon. the obama's protect its own existence let's go next. to. this moment costs as american citizen native lands on that spot.
6:48 am
in a tough time we have a fast to die and. i would vote for a republican over trump i would vote for anyone who does not want and ask how to bring defeat dumptruck. defeat. my 2nd wife. she can handle it all she and i divorce because trouble is what the president and i followed it for him and she crashed an. election. you know history. for them to go before the next presidential election is the history in the us. what are the highest priority problems. they vote they do. just some of the questions we keep in there.
6:49 am
so far it appears that us president donald trump yes the brand name in chief themself is on his way back to the white house after a few quick days of walter reed hospital this replacing incredible controversy in scrutiny for leaving the hospital on sunday afternoon for a p.r. stunt joyride show to showcase himself to all the fans were gathered outside the hospital artie's weight blackburn's joins us now live from walter reed with the details of this amazing weekend for one donald trump. yeah that's right we're out here where president trump is now saying that he feels better than he has in 20 years after just a few days of treatment at the walter reed medical center we're standing out here and just on the other side of this fence there's a chopper waiting to take him back to the white house now here now that he would be
6:50 am
leaving on twitter where he also included in his message a statement to say that americans should not be afraid of coded 19 even as the death toll continues to increase here in the united states now what we have seen here outside of the hospital is a number of supporters that have gathered every single day that he has been a minute now travis. why did he himself would take a break from the hospital on sunday and he was seen taking part in a motorcade parade of sorts where he was seen in the back seat of a car wearing a mask and waving at his supporters now that move was met with a lot of criticism from many who say that the secret service agents who were involved had their health but it risks that criticism included a message from an attending physician out walter reed who took to twitter to write every single person in the vehicle during that completely unnecessary presidential drive by just now has to be quarantined for 14 days they might get sick they may die for political theater commanded by trump to put their lives at risk for theatre this is insanity now so far we know the terms press secretary and multiple aides
6:51 am
have tested positive for kobe one theme but the white house says it has no plans to release the exact numbers of staff members who have also contracted the virus meanwhile trump has been very vocal on twitter and in his latest video he said that he has learned a lot during his time in the hospital take a listen. so it's been a very interesting journey i learned a lot about kovi i learned it by really going to school this is the real school this is in the let's read the book school and i get it and i understand it and it's a very interesting thing going to be letting you know about it in the meantime we love the usa and we love what's happening. we are now just 29 days away from the election and clearly trump is trying to show strength in the face of this 19 diagnosis but that hasn't stopped the virus from having an impact on capitol hill and valid just this week we've seen the read you the senator's tested positive for
6:52 am
seen this includes 2 on the senate judiciary committee senate majority leader mitch mcconnell confirm the floor proceedings have been canceled until october 19th but he says the hearings to confirm supreme court justice nominee amy tony barrett are still expected to begin next week on october 12th. now the senate is also expected to take up a vote on the stimulus bill this week but it's not clear yet if it will be can successful considering the fact that it includes provisions that democrats have accused republicans of using to try to do the bare minimum for the american people so as for right now the 2 sides do remain on gridlock reporting from outside the walter reed medical center rachel blevins art scene as well as few with trump to leave i mean i would use of some time after 630 we're sure as we're doing this now live not a replay but in this version of the wind chill that's going to be any minute now what does it look like oh there's a group of crows getting excited is there any movement what's happening. well right
6:53 am
now earlier we saw a lot of crowds right back here but since then police have blocked off the street and really kind of quieted everything down exactly where we are now we we are we are now we've seen supporters outside all day with american flags with 2020 flags and we did see some counter protesters bill a lot of them came through sort of in their cars when they were able to drive through here right they would yell back and forth at the protesters we've also seen a very heavy media presence we've seen dozens of reporters all across the street and they all seem to be here to see exactly what comes next move is going to be and what it's going to look like when he does leave the hospital the circus continues thank you so much for your reporting which will. think. the u.s. airline industry is ramping up its covert 1900 safety precautions airlines are considering testing passengers at 19 in the hopes of breathing life back into the industry so the coronavirus emerged air travel has dropped by 70 percent in the
6:54 am
u.s. and some believe testing might help people gain the confidence to fly once again parties alex mahela bitch as the story. was hundreds of planes grounded. this year more enjoyable to takeoff once again by implementing a new. coronavirus strategy industry is planning to make over $900.00 tests available for passengers before they board flights airlines including united american alaskan and jet blue have announced programs which will offer mail in tests that will be sent to passengers homes or rapid tests at airports hopes are by implementing testing passengers would feel more confident to fly while lifting the need for travel restrictions and mandatory quarantines in the states many are seeing this as a possible lifeline for the airline industry which has been ravaged by the coronavirus september 30th was the last day of a $25000000000.00 federal bailout package which assisted with payrolls in the
6:55 am
industry and airlines were hoping to see a new pandemic plan take effect last week the republicans are blaming the democrats for the lack of action which just days ago caused the fertile of more than $32000.00 jobs combined at united and american airlines nancy pelosi has said numerous times that she would keep us here to get it done that was in july. she made his way all summer but who did she really make when the small businesses that have now declared bankruptcy are those people that are employed by them there are now out of work or those that their unemployment the do not get the extra benefit or what about the airlines could she not see past politics for wants politics aside it is estimated that the u.s. airline industry supports approximately 10000000 jobs and accounts for 1.7 trillion in u.s. g.d.p.
6:56 am
. while not necessarily a solution the idea of using covert 900 testing as a way to boost the airline industry is not new and has become commonplace in some countries for months france germany and iceland were among the 1st countries to announce covert $900.00 testing for passengers their airports in russia a diagnostic test is being offered at one of moscow's biggest international airports with results being returned within an hour and talking about russia that country and finland have kicked things up to another notch by introducing man's best friend into the mix finland has already deployed dogs and helsinki's international airport to sniff out those with coded 1000 in less than a minute at a 94 percent accuracy rate according to some studies while in russia dogs are still in training louis gates rickover we have 2015 we're going to i believe will have the 1st read all of them by december and currently there is not a single test that offers 100 percent accuracy the rate at which the tests fail to
6:57 am
detect the virus and a person who is actually infected known as a false negative rate ranges from 2 percent to 50 percent depending on the test never mind the concern for false positive results at the facts that people who are tested a few days in advance have time to catch the virus before flying and that testing is optional it is obvious that the danger of catching corona virus on a flight is not gone in addition the tests are pricey in the u.s. they cost between $80.00 and $250.00 while some health experts hope that a quick and accurate test will be made available at airports in the future for now they believe that even if all passengers on a plane are tested masks and physical distancing should still be recommended the latter being quite difficult in a plane full of people for r.t. i'm alex mileage. absolutely fascinating as i said earlier reported you know that
6:58 am
the extra cost. this is going to end up finding its way back to the to the ticket holder that's the best the most frustrating part i think it would be great to have rapid testing it on the day all before people get on flights but the cost of it is going to be prohibitive for a lot of people would be awful all right everybody about is our show for you today remember in this world we are not told the love the sword tell you all i love to you i am tyrone winter and i let me shut off keep on watching all those hawks out there and have a great day and night everybody. the united states economy resembles to a large degree the economies of countries that the united states typically makes fun of you know the us or the united nations will send aid and they'll send money to countries like say in africa for example not to pick on africa but it does happen where the money never gets distributed it just ends up if he did leaders of
6:59 am
that particular country and then they become fabulously wealthy. as the us economy was booming growing numbers of people were made homeless. you can work 40 hours in a week and still not have enough to get housing everybody believes america still is the land of opportunity the reality of it were not financially quality and the lack of affordable housing for a living minimum wage give many people no choice. just been a problem with the city and always turn a return to stay way out almost. considered if there is no answer because yes that requires resources the most vulnerable are abandoned on the streets to become the invisible cops.
7:00 am
i think. the. stands electoral commission has an old this sunday's parliamentary vote following huge draw its former president of the central asian state is also being released from jail amid the chaos with the parliament building set on fire also as it comes out of the former growing of our sports bought new york city sees another wave of infections the authorities are rolling out. starting with the decision to shut down the city's schools and the battle rages and as if with the disputed region of nagorno-karabakh dozens of civilians killed and by its sides international humanitarian.
