officially confirmed joe biden is president later today donald trump supporters from across the country helping descending as we say on the capital for that so-called stop this rally at present trump is speaking right bracing for possible clashes between the pro trump crowd on their opponents the city's mayor has called in the national guard. to stay away from being a left wing movement a terrorist. right to a christmas morning bombing mystery on the rich skipping to the top of the queue for cobra jobs it is a packed to the rafters watching the hawks ahead on r t it starts in moments. greetings and salutation. welcome back my friends from a quite the fitting end to the 2020 holiday season and while most of us were forced

to stay at home and lock down stuffing ourselves with christmas candy while watching bill murray get clobbered by the ghost of christmas past present and future well it was the united states congress who revealed their their inner scrooge this christmas as the world sat back in horror as they watched our elected officials here in the us quibble and fight over just how small of an amount of financial help $600.00 or $1200.00 that they felt they could get away with giving us citizens and still come across as well. you know. human beings by the time for the next election cycle i'm talking of course about the holiday battle over the paltry size of the stimulus checks yes the literal scraps from the congressional budget terry table that have lawmakers in such a tizzy this holiday season and despite united states president donald trump's initial threat to veto the $900000000000.00 stimulus bill drawing exasperated

sloppy wet breaths from mitch mcconnell and the rest are brand name and she eventually relented and signed the bill late sunday night but not even that debacle could stop members from congress from continuing to show their true colors take senator marco rubio one sunday unleash his inner trumpets here and dr anthony the director of the national institute of allergy and infectious diseases when rubio took to twitter tweeting out dr proud she laughed about masks and marge dr g. has been distorting the level of vaccination needed bird immunity it isn't just him . many elite bubbles believe the american people doesn't know what's good for them so they need to be tricked into doing the right thing well if anyone knows anything about elite bubbles here in the united states it's got to be senator rubio who back on december 19th used his elite bubble status as a u.s. senator to secure himself a covert vaccination before thousands upon thousands of at risk front line workers

in the health care industry even got away with a one. so as we continue to fight for table scraps and elitists like marco rubio live off of our tax dollars my friends i think it's time we start watching. on a cd. player so let's see this is joyce state. great city this least systemic deception show which. will. welcome everyone watching the harks. and i'm a just across so amazing did you like that battle royal we saw congress take place all the backstabbing and the craziness that happened over this relief bill over over the holiday break i will say that that was the biggest christmas surprise we

came so close congress had already gone home everything was supposed to be wrapped up all signed simple to the point that people would start getting their checks this week and then all of a sudden trump pulls everything back and runs on the idea that people deserve more which is something he didn't talk about before this plane even though democrats in congress have been pushing for more dollars for months now and not recognize or believe recognizing in his case that stalling only meant people were going to get further and it remains still do on the 1st were garbus the checks out and this was just a very interesting process to get to the exact same spot we are today where he was still going to have to fund while you're still going to fund the bill what really gets under my skin is just the hypocrisy that you see from people like senator rubio lindsey graham and others who you know they were quick to line up to get their shots which i understand that you've got to give the politicians a guy as much as irks me i get it like you've got to give your elected officials they make decisions that are vital to the country they have to be you know they got

to get the shots they're going to get the vaccinations i get that but seeing so many people who sat in yellow. and hollered about the rules of the param demick the law was wearing blah blah blah it's not real all of this other garbage that they spew to the us you're seeing these guys sit down and get stuck in the arms we have over the last few weeks just reeks of the parker sumo it absolutely does it in marco rubios case specifically this is someone who attacked dr pao she kept attacking dr even after he got the kobe vaccine didn't believe and spoke against kobe 1000 being a real threat for the past 8 months if it's just surprising only to watch him take that back scene and now you know be so my ok but it's also frustrating because there are so many people full disclosure i found out yesterday that my grandmother contacted. in to know that there are literally people who are in the senior living facilities who are going to get the back thing for another 2 or 3 weeks meanwhile their younger people who are having access to it right now as well as people who

would still like to believe in 1000 didn't exist and push these conspiracy theories it's just really frustrating it truly is you know especially here in about your grandmother is the fact that now you have you're getting reports out that the super rich the wealthiest of the well the are now offering top dollar to their doctors in beverly hills in the hamptons to get them somehow to the point of the. i mean there was i mean there was a doctor the los angeles times report that reports the doctor you saw on all of you who runs the beverly hills concierge doctor whose clients include area ground justin bieber and regularly pay up to $10000.00 a year for like private personalized care he stated he's getting hundreds of calls every single day from his like high in the lead one percent clientele saying you know how do i get the vaccine what do i got to pay what do i got to do put me at the front of the list absolutely people are willing to give hundreds of thousands of dollars to try to get this vaccine now before it's actually available to the general public and this isn't surprising but it the part that frustrates me the

most is that many of them will get it you know there are people who are act. really having their names added to the list of home health care workers or you know nursing staff or some of the nursing homes and senior care centers who have never worked a day in their lives in senior care centers but they're sliding a few dollars to people who do so they can get their names on the list and jump on the live to get these vaccines it creates this underworld type of market but honestly a lot of people will take the cash and make sure that they pass this you know get these people these vaccines dr jeff told who works at cedars sinai medical center told the l.a. times quote that a patient actually asked him directly if by donate 25000 the cedars with that help me get in line that's just like exist just blatant like hey i have money i deserve this i'm going to cheat to get it and every person who cheats and jumps and about wine is then also putting someone who is at risk someone who is a print line worker that's one less for them you are 100 percent correct here but i

would posit that this is exactly no different than what we saw with the hiv aids pandemic and a lot of the drugs that been used to have become popularized to suppress some of the aftereffects of that because if you had the money in the ninety's people were passing that along to get these drugs that were then still experimental and they lived well into old age meanwhile you know a lot of people who were people of color or people who were impoverished died almost instantly i want to add to what you said about you know kind of people fudging the books and saying oh i work a blood you know nursing homes or i do these kind of things which is really crazy is that if you just look at california the guidelines there obviously say that people who work in essential industries are prioritized in terms of who gets the nation's. injust california nearly 12000000 people 2 thirds of the state workforce work and what are considered essential industries you're talking 12000000 people in just that state alone so i think the other problem the running into is that kind of like what we define as essential to where we're not really putting up good ground

rules and that's what creates these black markets for them the one percent and others the kind of jump in and take advantage. and leave the poor people essentially alone in the wind so. investigators in nashville tennessee now know who committed the crime but the motive remains a mystery today federal authorities remain at the scene of the christmas day bombing that killed the accused bomber and injured 3 others r.t. correspondent natasha suite brings with the latest on the information authorities are working with now to piece everything together. you're watching video of the nashville explosion set off on christmas morning police retrieve the footage from their network cameras this one situated in downtown before the bomb was detonated a recorded warning went off with a 15 minute countdown telling people that a bomb would in fact be going off. to be killed maybe anthony. warner yes. it was present with the.

authorities say they linked a d.n.a. evidence to 63 year old anthony quinn warner they say the bomb went off in an r.v. park downtown neighbors say the r.v. at the explosion was similar to the one normally at warner's residence overnight t.b.i. forensic scientists processed evidence from the crime scene for d.n.a. testing yet it was compared to evidence collected from a vehicle used by the person of interest in this case officials say warner blew himself up in the explosion and is believed to have acted alone 3 people 'd were injured and dozens of buildings were damaged including an 18 t. transmission center according to local media among the more than 500 leads given to investigators agents are looking into reports that warner experienced paranoia believing that 5 g. was being used to spy on americans the explosion also cause disruptions to internet connections and cell phone service back in november warner reportedly transferred his property to a woman in los angeles for 0 dollars the woman declined to comment referring to the

f.b.i.'s orders a cousin of warner's. said he owned an alarm company in the past he also worked as a computer consultant for a nashville real estate company for 15 years one of the co-owners said warner retired earlier this month and never exhibited any behavior which was less than professional neighbors described warner as a loner several celebrities offering reward money to help assist in the investigation some $300000.00 has been raised so far now the governor of tennessee has asked the president for an emergency declaration all the while authorities are still searching for a motive for 44 watching the hawks atocha suites are. truly tragic but you can kind of look at this from a really interesting angle is why are they calling this a terrorist act. but there is a fresh nation that resides in me and i think most people of color when it comes to how the f.b.i. and other organizations as well as the media handle white terrorism when the when

the boston marathon bomber committed his acts it was almost immediately called an act of terrorism we've seen this happen time and time again when the person is of african descent when the person happens to be of the islamic faith. but when it is a white male homegrown guy no one ever questions orse calls it domestic terrorism even when all of the ticker points checked for this he had some crazed fear of 5 g. technology and technological advancement which was the same thing that we saw with the unabomber because this was a guy who had pre-planned in pretty much laid out how he wanted this to be done because he went to nashville 6 30 in the morning and one of the busiest streets in the entire city and demand and 2nd avenue he made sure to alert authorities as well as to make call out over loud speaker while there to ensure that nobody was in the vicinity yes or eviscerating himself. that was one of the things that really jumped out to me as clearly he didn't want to hurt other people least that's all we know

so far but you definitely want to go off in that spot you know and the thing is too is it's like it always makes me segues we was. i didn't want 5 judges being spied on well i'm sorry you're already being spied on you can't get around that you curious cell phone you're being spied on and there's a cia like f.b.i. we're the most surveilled society maybe next to the u.k. where they have a camera on every street corner you can't get around why take your anger out the way that this guy did and i want to hear that this is a guy who also previously worked in security his whole job with the people so i'm like i don't really fully understand that but we've also heard from some of the neighbors who spoke about you know not only his 5 years but how much of a loner he was how much he said he wanted the world to remember him badly those are things that are thin by people who are about to commit some type of crazy yet we've heard it time and time again from those who have committed acts of terrorism thankfully not being fully he kept the body to the minimum one could possibly do but still no excuse for that are coming out of the body as we go to break remember

that you can also start watching the hawks on the man do that. which is a bit was definitely pick that up coming up we look at all that we look at how the governor of kansas yes kansas is reshaping how this country deals with addicts and addiction here's a hint she's not throwing them in jail for a change stay to watch the whole. 2021 are going to c.n.n. thanks and 21 you know america has been exporting its inflation that china for 20 years and that china's caught up to america and now all that money that's been going on for 2025 years is going to show up. real places.

the way of life the brain is leading a true. only in the magic lifestyle the tundra is similar to a parallel reality that right now i was allowed to drive the hood women carry the weight of this whole block on their shoulders and show them the scrap one also last seen there. is thank you that's nice however in the vast expanse of russia there is a spot where i housewife could secure a regular employment status it's in the final to last through a commission on the strength of my kids. she's filled with the salary. i. live

live. live live thanks. america's jails and prisons have serious problems from rampant abuse to failure to meet health and safety protocols you name it inmates face it recently a st louis county jail had to face the music as one inmate to death raise questions about how his condition was handled 20 year old market chickens died of survivable leukemia last year after allegedly seeking help from the staff who were use to let

him see you doctor. it's civil rights to just been filed against the county and federal jail workers the lawsuit claims that the county jails health system is so disorganized that it lacks adequate medical supervision by nurses and doctors. but all news isn't bad news on the criminal justice from kansas says showing a few signs of hope governmental or kelly proposed a treatment center for him me despite the widespread notion that inmates are largely violent criminals that actually most inmates have substance abuse and mental health issues and are incarcerated as a result of the governor kelly plans to recommend adding a treatment center at the state prison in lansing if the measure of quinn's action inmates will be sent to the treatment center for intensive treatment rather than house in traditional prison space. with research showing that 65 percent of the u.s. population suffers from substance abuse disorders this type of criminal justice reform could go a long way carol tell us more is john keep us national director of reentry initiatives

for right on crime and author rights director of criminal justice and civil liberties at our street what i'm. going to be make you think is a ground 0 i'm excited to have both of you guys it's always so much fun to have you on i hope you guys had a great holiday. so i'm going to start with you are there on this question leukemia when it's treated properly it has an over 90 percent survival rate it isn't an automatic death sentence so when catchings asked for help and complained of pains in his health deteriorated he just wasn't taken seriously how common is this in jails and prisons and what recourse to the families have to make sure their loved ones aren't neglected. i think it's prevalent in there and it goes back to you know something that we have been talking about for a long time john and i worked on this issue is there is a culture of immunity in our system it's the idea that you walk people way in and then you can forget about them i mean i said this before you know gandhi said you

judge a country in ancient by how it treats its weakest members and we treat our weakest members children immigrants and individuals that are incarcerated very poorly and i just want to say one thing that will not be in court in this case dismaying was innocent this is true child he was in jail not prison. and now his charge was a serious charge but he wasn't guilty in the do anything and there are minimal even if he was guilty and even if. we do they said it in the charging documents was true he still didn't serve a death sentence and i think if you look at that and then you look at the idea of culture in our incarcerated centers and if i could nurse the persons of color has to be you know we're looking at their well being so that he's at stake or we need. he obviously had decided he wasn't breaking in having to really show that we have a. breach of the professional but the tussle ism of or individuals who work

in prisons jails across this country john i want to ask you what types of guidelines exist for the management of preexisting conditions and what do you believe will result from the lawsuit that we're seeing right now in st louis county . such a great question and you know typically back to what arthur said 1st you know the problem in correctional medicine is that the contracts are given normally the lowest responsive dinners where they are given to private companies and look no one expects that the person to have the mayo clinic inside of it but at the end of the day if you have a highly preventable issue that you have the same duty that you have on the outside as a doctor to treat right you can't ignore your condition just because you don't like in maine or you might not like inmates in general it's terrible and you know you can see that it's going on around the country where correctional medicine companies or correctional minutes and providers simply don't have the staff or they don't devote the staff to fix these issues no if they can prove history medical

malpractise lation negligence case then i think we have some place to go now the added it treat your is in deprivation of civil rights but since i'm not a traditional doctor patient relationship but one that might go far here because the person did everything needed to notify the jail of the station. and to piggyback off of that john we know that mental health disorders and substance abuse issues have been used to incarcerate people now for decades criminal justice reform efforts like what we're seeing be undertaken in kansas could be a game changer could you explain how a treatment center might be implemented and how governor kelly even got to this place. sure so governor kelly got to this place and they can just criminal justice commission report which. it's a fantastic report that recommends a lot of different changes across a lot of different systems in kansas one of which is to which substance abuse

treatment in kind is involved now i mean sharks are and you know you know my home state of new jersey and i never missed a chance to brag about it but it was governor christie back in 27 and oh it's the turks to really do this what he did was he closed the 700 bed for use an old mistake correctional facility and turn it into a treatment for instance and now you have 696 and last for vets 696. residential treatment beds so i could sit still for any candidates because you'll be able to get it if it goes through you'll be able to get the same treatment then you can get on the streets so we know that the current jenny agar is high substance abuse and mental health patients and co-occurring diagnoses if we treat that while someone on the wall we make everyone see not just the pain inside the prison you names aren't etc but society in general and give people a chance to read claiming their dignity and hopefully produce a variety and getting their addiction under control and not committing any more

crimes it's interesting are there are we going to see a shift in how substance abuse is treated in our justice system and will proposals like this also affect those with long standing drug problems we've already you know been serving out their sentences i mean kim fox cook county state's attorney in chicago is right now pushing to automatically your race convictions for dealing we expose cocaine and heroin arrests as well are we going to see this as kind of a better or a better idea the better practice of how we handle our war on drugs and convicting people through bought through if. i only answer only hope so i mean even one of the one of the beauties of america and some people you know actually hate this is the idea that each state gets to be kind of an incubator i'm actually really excited to see what happened in in oregon are we going to see a complete meltdown because they have. you know we are decriminalized to new things or we want to see which i predict that we should not have these things the criminal is in the 1st place you know and you know john you know it was filmed in the magic

word there seems to be and this is the thing that i think that we really got to get are our our hands around we know story stacked there is so much evidence out there that public safety is actually increased when we treat individuals going to have a subset of views as if they are sick and they need help and instead of throwing them away locking away the key or just treating them as if they were a nuisance to our society and we actually try to do something to help them we have actually increased public safety i know one of these things the one thing that's i know i did by this is it's how we've seen this dramatic shift in the way winston insteps the buttes from the days of crack cocaine to now the days of boot opioids and i think it is telling that you know we we we we totally have a different lens of how we treat something to be used during the opioid crisis when it was cracked it was an absolute criminal epidemic and now we're using the words

you know it's a medical issue and that's a good thing but i think we shouldn't get it and i think we should definitely learn or once and that when you know can use a color would be the beginning of the crack epidemic we need to get this thing way and i'm very happy that things are changing and to answer your question directly you know there is something that we enjoy and i work with all the time he is the only person that rise up in new jersey but we see that all these years we all meet on 3 that there's a trickle down effect when it comes to promote just a quarter when a state passes them and into work you see in other states usually the states that are similar are surrounding no or that has been lower graphics which live and think it's all detectives techs and spread throughout. the. country and we're. california another i'm very hopeful that going to be a new trend i think will end on that our 3rd john thank you both for joining us today and providing our viewers with your expertise on this matter thank you

gentleman. thank you having an. art as we close it on the final days of 2020 year that without a doubt will go down as clearly one of the worst in recent human history let us step into the new year with a new found effort to simply not fall down yes we can we can we please try a little harder to keep ourselves from falling down keep those falls to a minimum i'm serious i'm not joking and what has got to be one of the strangest and sad is that this next reverse seen in awhile according to the c.d.c. 29 to 30 percent of all non fatal emergency room visits across all ages come from folks losing their balance then falling down stairs steps ramps landings you name it human beings have figured out a way to fall off of it in fact in $2900.00 bowing down and hurting oneself amounted to over 8000000 emergency room visits here in just the united states so come on folks please just get our balance point in 2021

where we can and how we can start to figure out you know the rest like accidental poisonings and swallowing unintentional foreign bodies who are the body that is our show for today remember in this world we are not told that we are loved enough so i tell you all i love you i am tired of the inter and i let me keep on watching all those hawks never great they invite everybody. has changed. the pharmaceutical companies the rescue the solution. based drugs the people who are kind of. the lead. their prescription is working for them on the remedy be sent to. the. grocer dependency

him addiction to opiates the long term use that really isn't scientifically justified and i'll study actually suggest that. the long term effects may not just be absence of benefit but actually vote because we want to. do what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to confront ation let it be an arms race is on off and spearing dramatic development the only place really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. and then as planned across the garage it will. mean you have australian visual they . were. used to dumb shit on the net

or you. could go to live to. eat or go to church there's a new look at a loser well going to turn you into a pretty chilled good natured to be on your orders will show you such that it will . still order the out of this group through the who are full and can churn you. point of their beautiful and hear them. we're going. to put so that the new. duran dish. for more gas than jenny. stuck. to just what. i do you know when you are going in.
