11:01 am
a cyber attack on government agencies although security officials admit they don't know who is behind the preach. and a british government minister sparks outrage with his criticism of unicef multimillionaire jacob respond dismissed the agency's efforts to feed hungry children in the u.k. as a political stunt. and watching are to international bring you your live news update from our studio here in moscow welcome to the program. authorities in the u.s. have said they're now investigating 5 adverse responses to the pfizer biotech vaccine including 3 alaska health workers officials admit they still don't know the exact cause. i think we'll be looking at all of the data we can from each of these reactions to sort out exactly what happened and we'll also be
11:02 am
looking to try to understand which component of the fact he might be helping to produce. that news came just hours after a 2nd vaccine developed by monday or not was approved by u.s. regulators meanwhile vice president mike pence received the pfizer biotech shot live on t.v. along with his wife and he gave the job his vote of confidence karen and i. are than happy to step forward before this week was. to take the safe and effective coronavirus vaccine that we have secured produced for the american people there are now been several confirmed cases of allergic reactions to the pfizer biotech vaccine a 3rd health care worker and alaska was hospitalized after getting the job 2 others also had adverse responses with one taken into intensive care meanwhile the u.k. has registered to adverse reactions to the shot and health officials there have warned people with severe allergies to avoid getting it there's also controversy
11:03 am
that americans can't sue pfizer or derna and february authorities brought in the public readiness and emergency preparedness or prep act it provides immunity for all vaccine mixers for 4 years of turning a rogue done explain why even if americans fall sick they may never get compensation. if they are sick and they miss a couple of days of work and they don't feel good for 3 or 4 weeks they're going to get 0 compensation under the american legal system typically an individual injured by a product or service can sue and you can have a class action where literally tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people can sue the government when they implemented this war speed. to have a vaccine developed much faster than normal the companies weren't willing to do that for fear that they might get sued so the government said we will protect you
11:04 am
companies so you can't be sued by top u.s. physician and consultant to vaccine manufacturers spoke to our channel about the state of ca in jobs stanley poken told us whether the shots can stop the pandemic. many people fear of vaccines and this is true throughout the world and yet when one really looks at the record vaccines in general have been quite safe now the thing that one has to understand is what is risk is the risk of the disease as it is for covert 19 let's say is 20 percent that's 2 in every 10 people right. and the risk of the reactions to vaccines that that i'm familiar with is about one in a 1000000 so if you compare the risks if you're intelligent you would take the
11:05 am
vaccine. what we don't know or any of the back seems thus far is whether they are consistently prevent infection which is important because if they do that will prevent the boyers from spreading if they don't then we have a situation where vaccination vaccinated people will be protected by the unvaccinated people will not be detected so we have a want to learn about the vaccines. both the gama layer vaccine and the astra zeneca vaccine are based on a virus called add in the virus the astra zeneca people probably feel that that they could. improve the response by using not
11:06 am
one. no virus but 2 and that was the good idea of the malaya vaccine to use one that had no wires that's a prime and another ad no irises a boost and that seems to work better. they would be collected certainly through the next year if you're talking about safety. city examination of safety is really. can be done in a month or 2 after vaccination or as if you're talking about efficacy then you need long observations in terms of. how effective a vaccine is and over what period of time that's another issue that we don't have any information on i will not have any information for many
11:07 am
months. and i'm not pessimistic about the exact scenes at least reducing the infection whether they will completely obliterate the infection remains to be seen. u.s. secretary of state mike pump aoe has accused russia of carrying out a major cyber attack on government departments and this despite the lack of any official conclusions from u.s. security agencies this was a very significant effort had i think it's my case that now we can say pretty clearly that it was the russians that engaged in this activity. the breach was reported last week and is believed to have targeted several government bodies including the departments of state and homeland security the treasury and the nuclear security administration a number of private companies are also believed to have been breached hackers are said to have hijacked software used by the government to gain access officials say
11:08 am
it was done by a patient and well resourced adversary and the national cyber security agency has called the attack a grave risk to u.s. infrastructure but it has not named any suspects so far russia has denied any involvement it was news that it has to do with that you didn't register any official messages from the united states about hacker attacks and accusations about such attacks we've become accustomed to the fact that the united states as well as all the western countries simply announce in the media about new exemptions to address that russian. political analyst gilbert doctorow believes there are several countries around the world that could have carried out such an attack. what i have in mind is that watching the war all we could which made no sense whatsoever about his interests but it was very good or political talking points for the wars films. when we would get so pissed if they saw them going to hacking what's been described
11:09 am
to them just to see and then we look at the sensitivity. of the national security or interests that are possibly come the most it'll be over sorry that this particular incident is our defense or that anybody at all or which like only a state rather than low level of why that individuals or or or subcontractors would muster or there are in the world or are several states in the world war of doing us . a government minister in the u.k. has drawn a shock and ridicule for his comments on child poverty take up a recent whose net worth is estimated at more than 100000000 pounds lashed out at unicef saying it should not be helping impoverished children and the u.k. the real scandal that unicef should be playing politics in this way when it is meant to be looking after people in the poorest the most deprived countries in the
11:10 am
world where people are starving where there are famines or whether civil wars and they make cheap political points of this kind giving i think 25000 pounds to one council it is a political stunt in parliament i just challenge jay caprice malk about unicef having to feed working class kids in the u.k. it's shameful for kids to go hungry it's not shameful to feed them the only person who should be ashamed is you mr rees mark. you know suffer recently launched a wide ranging program aimed at tackling the food insecurity will be granting over $700000.00 pounds to community groups all over the k. they were nation is also helping fee children in the south of london giving out food parcels and assuring breakfasts are distributed to schools there on the campaign has put a spotlight on food poverty in the u.k. considered to be one of the wealthiest countries in the world according to unicef an estimated 2400000 children live in so-called food insecure homes free school
11:11 am
meals programs have seen huge numbers of families sign up and unicef has defended its decision to provide help unicef u.k. is responding to the some pressed into crisis and building on our 25 years experience to working on children's rights in the u.k. with a one off domestic response launched a notice to provide support to vulnerable children and families around the country during this crisis period earlier we spoke with the founder of britain's largest independent food bank who says the government's handling of the poverty crisis has been unacceptable. i think the reality is the government's own figures show that in britain 4.5 children get 1000000 children get free school meals and before the pandemic the government's own figures confirm that 12000000 people in britain a word in poverty i think what unicef and don has of course given some money to people in britain and britain is one of the great generous countries in the world
11:12 am
for giving money so it's only just right that when our people are in crisis that unicef gives us some cash by the scandal is we have a government that keeps pussy footing around the real crisis or brush it i'm not spit 15000 people 15000000 people in the 1st 6 richest economy on the planet going hungry and that is not acceptable we should be leading a global campaign to end poverty not pussyfooting around it we now feeding so many people we can hardly cope it's not something that we can just depend anymore on our government our government around the world are all tied up with the pandemic trying to get people safe and stop people dying letting people go hungry is not a priority and so we as people and we as communities need to take back power and politicize it in a way but we can eradicate the problems. us president like joe biden's promise to unite the country as its next leader but his
11:13 am
words don't always match his party's actions as everyone from his campaign manager to the incoming deputy chief of staff to vice of insult republicans kill bachmann has a story. putting the star in stars and stripes joe biden the great healer of america is on a winning streak and he will not stop until these states are united i pledge to be a president who seeks not to divide but unify. who doesn't see the red states and blue states only sees the united states but there might be a small problem not everyone in the democratic camp is so keen on the healing process i'm not saying they're not a bunch mitch mcconnell is terrible not exactly a white flag coming from the new administration and she's not alone and many democrats are not very keen on smoothing things over with trump supporters people who stood by donald trump for the last 4 years and now claiming to be offended at the time democratic campaign manager used to curse word 8 i don't think so so if
11:14 am
the side of washington that's winning is already talking trash what about the other ones still sore from losing a 2nd term biden talks about unity and healing but you want to know what they really think read how the person he wants is the next white house deputy chief of staff called republicans in congress a bunch of. button complain manager called he can try to walk back but this is volumes about him boss who calls for unity while shouting that we are assaulting democracy they think we're a deplorable. sick getting over these ill feelings post-election will be no easy feat the hatred has been there for a long time and some of them are as she said deplorable to just be grossly generalistic you could put half of trump's supporters into what i call the basket of deplorable zx their race is sex is homophobia xander. as long.
11:15 am
day mitt. and unfortunately there are people like that. and he has lifted them up this has been tried before the whole unity montra at least while the cameras are rolling well i will be a president for democrats republicans independents for the struggling the striving the successful for all those who vote for me and for those who doubt for our god where i cast to have her. that's what the country needs. a sense of unity a sense of inclusion. a respect for our institutions. our way of life. rule of law. and respect for each other so we've got a new administration full of familiar faces we've got a brand new president who used to be the vice ad at this point we've got
11:16 am
a new post trump america with many things remaining the same and they probably won't be fixed what's been going on for the last 8 years right well america has been in the domestic abuse situation you have one side of the political already that has been for years gaslighting lying abusing manipulating pretty minor wounds looting bertie impeaching and coming up with every faith new story that ending everything in its turn the population against this president doing everything they can to divide this country and now if it somehow managed through it appears in seoul joe biden is president. for unity or not only a whole areas but also extremely cynical i can assure you there's going to be no unity in this country in fact i heard many people on the right saying that they're quite excited for the next 4 years to do everything the luxman doing to them over the last couple years but 3 full now that's an issue because those republicans who
11:17 am
would be willing to work with the other side are going to win many friends in the electorate and they're not going to be very popular. still to come this hour republicans target joe biden's son over his business dealings in ukraine after years of grappling with the russia trying collusion. astore and more after the spike. because there is this huge gusher of money printing bedsteads coming out of the central banks and because tesla has nothing working against it because it's not. producing anything like the taiyo to afford or some other company where you could look at the actual products in a meaningful context of the global economy and ascribe
11:18 am
a value to it you can simply say that well we think that tesla has a meaning which is mostly i mean. money is in me so we're going to make it worth $600000000000.00 today and it could be worth it could drop 90 percent tomorrow. join me every 1st week on the alex i'm i'm sure and i'll be speaking to us of the world the olympics sport business i'm show business oh so you're. welcome back them instead of standing more has been raging for almost 6 years now with the un out warning of
11:19 am
a humanitarian catastrophe and the threat of famine the world food program spokesperson called food insecurity there a ticking time bomb and urged the world to act immediately 2000000 yemeni children are already suffering malnutrition and need urgent medical treatment according to humanitarian reports the conflict has also left nearly 4000000 people displaced and desperate families are even forced to hide out in the mountains. we moved here and even had our wedding ceremony here we do not have a place to live or anything else we need help.
11:20 am
with on the island at least so far from any transport and we have children they are cold and hungry and they want tea so far from this area. as you see our situation is difficult we need help we need housing food and blankets we are in danger inside this case. joe biden has again been forced to give answers after federal prosecutors launched a criminal probe into his son hunter's tax affairs and an interview together with his wife the us president elect branded all charges of foul play we have great confidence in our son. i am are concerned about any accusations been made against
11:21 am
him i think it's kind of fall play these accusations are just part of wider claims including corruption allegations over hunter biden's ukraine dealings and leaked emails from a laptop reported to be his ragas to have explains why this will remain a headache for the president elect. we none of us are clean let's be honest leave all done things we're ashamed of have secrets that we wouldn't want anyone to know sometimes they come to light especially if you're a politician nixon and watergate clinton lewinsky would joe budden and his boy his son hunter biden is now under a federal criminal investigation like a vine is selling influence over c. hunter biden made millions of dollars in ukraine highlighting the corruption of joe and hunter biden quite the character. his scandal ridden chairmanship of a ukrainian energy company
11:22 am
a tax investigation under way suspicion of money laundering sex scandals and even a pawn shop and for hard drugs crack cocaine you may know all of this or you may be hearing it for the 1st star depending on what you watch and who you read because proved democrat networks didn't think all of this is a newsworthy issue and neither does daddy president elect biden is deeply proud of his son who has fought through difficult challenges and grit the vicious personal attacks of recent months only to emerge stronger personal attacks he says the justice department investigating biden's taxes might disagree or how's this for a personal attack biden jr allegedly using daddy's name to secure 10000000 dollars from the chinese i hope my letter finds you well i regret missing you on your last visit to the united states please accept the best wishes from the entire biden
11:23 am
family as well as my partners the biden family is now reportedly under 3 federal investigations with the f.b.i. involved and off to 4 years of russia gate shenanigans i would say republicans probably want a little payback a little hunted gate if you will. on top 3 federal investigations are going to take a lot of confidence let's just hope that daddy can have all the pressure because if he thought that he would escape the gauntlet that they put trump through well he was wrong the importance of the thing isn't that hunter has bad information about him it's that the mainstream media prevented the public from knowing about it until after the election and what's done is done the mainstream media isn't judging stories by their newsworthiness they're judging them by whether they will help or hurt democrat nominees and candidates and particularly in
11:24 am
a presidential election the mainstream media has been trying for 4 years to make donald trump go away and i think this time according to the results of the election they finally succeeded they couldn't do it with the russia hoax they couldn't do it with impeachment but finally they got donald trump kicked out of office so they believe by getting joe biden elected and the way to elect joe biden was to protect him by not letting the public know things about him and his family that could be damaging to his election chances it's really not complicated. the price of the cryptocurrency because $1.00 has had a record high of $23000.00 and search 30 percent in the past month and more than 200 percent since the start of last year that coins reputation as digital gold has grown up with the backing of some high profile investors financial expert and r.t. host max kaiser tell us why he thinks it's a stable investment. it was going to go to $400000.00 of going regardless
11:25 am
of whether what the situation is with the pandemic or regardless of what the situation is between nation states because it will trade similar to a market capitalization of gold the party is caused by paper money and big coin solves the problem of poverty how does big going to fix the problem it capitalizes the banks it capitalized the central banks it puts them out of business because everybody has their own bank no paper money has ever survived ever in history over the past 300 years every single form of paper money as either gone completely bankrupt or lost 99 percent of its value not have ever work it's impossible to work paper money it's a it's a faulty idea so we only have really goal but in the 21st century bitcoin is better than gold so big coin is actually pushing gold off the world stage people are buying big going not goal because it's superior to gold and that's the inflection
11:26 am
point that we're on in the 21st century we're witnessing a remarkable transformation of the global economy right now this year it's incredible. that's it is right on for this hour and that's all for me as well today but we're not calling brain will be taking over in about 30 minutes time thanks for tuning in. as the u.s. 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 way of opportunity to the reality of it is that we're not financially equality and the lack of affordable housing for
11:27 am
a living minimum wage give many people new choice. that's been a problem with the city knows turn over turn to stay away oh miss. the food the food is low it's. the reformers the source the most vulnerable are abandoned on the streets to become the invisible class. citizens. of the mr straight as green. as weapon of mass communication is already. dead weight is. dead and of entities the dangers and maybe the basis. of the global 1000000000 contaminated conjured tequilas on e.g. affect your.

11:29 am
max kaiser this is the kaiser report. stacy right well max do you know that on monday we're going to see tesla 4 enter the s. and p. $500.00 which is a remarkable achievement from just even a year ago at this time yeah it's the definitely a page story and there's just so many moving parts to it you know and it is a reflection of where we are on the stock market where we are in the business cycle where we are in the there's just so many many layers to it what the particularly about this intrigues you stacey to look at a few items but the thing that really stands out to me is you know we've been
11:30 am
recording from home during cove it and these global lock downs and economic lockdown and that there actually hasn't been much economic activity and people are getting used to being just paid to stay at home and they're demanding modern monetary theory that m.m.t. free money for everybody and so let me start with a quote from. mosque that bruce fenton tweeted out and it's in the context of today and having to produce stuff the idea you can just send checks out and everything will be ok is wrong people have an idea that the economy is a magical cornucopia a horn of plenty that resources flow from let me just break it down for the fools if you don't make stuff there is no stuff well this is ironic i guess on a couple of different levels right so the tesla stock is worth the last i checked roughly $600000000000.00.
