10:31 am
did you hear a sigh of relief on saturday when the senate concluded the 2nd impeachment hearing of donald trump will make no mistake that's i did not come from here within the beltway as there were tears and cries of injustice at least when the cameras were rolling but the sigh of relief from the rest of america who regardless of whether or not they supported trump really wanted congress to put their focus back on the physical and economic recovery from the coronavirus but even with the vote being over washington d.c. still looks like a scene from a war movie with no obvious threats being disclosed to the public matushka sweet brings us the latest. just before inauguration national guard troops swarmed many capitals throughout the country into science you know having a presence in washington d.c. just before biden was sworn in there were more than 26000 national guard troops in the nation's capital city but they weren't sent packing after the 20th right now
10:32 am
there are roughly 7000 guard troops providing security that number is expected to be reduced to some 5000 come march and now according to an internal e-mail leaks to the press troops could stay through the fall of 2021 the e-mail also reveals a meeting on feb 17th or question the department of defense to engage with capitol police were guarding post march 12th support according to pentagon spokesman john kirby the defense secretary is directing commanding officers across the military to select a date for a one day stand down to discuss military extremism he understands that a one day stand across of forces is going to miss you know when the solve everything but it might bring to light concerns and experiences that were otherwise not aware and he was informed by his own experience in the mid ninety's about stuff that was going on in his in his command shortly after the inauguration several states ordered for their service members to return home this came after troops decided poor food and being forced to take rest breaks in
10:33 am
a capitol hill garage the department of defense says the conditions were improved shortly after this extra security hasn't come without a hefty price tag according to the pentagon the cost of deploying thousands of national guard troops in d.c. alone around about $483000000.00 through mid march reporting for news views hughes natasha's sweet r t. ok so if i'm only going to devote one segment to the impeachment analysis i want to do it with the experts know dr c.e.o. of american majority and tobin smith c.e.o. of turner forward to research they join us now for one the one and only 360 view i hope to have on the 2nd impeachment of donald trump thank you gentlemen for joining us. so you would be scottie great to see you guys after 10 months i'm back in studio i had to start off my shows with you too because i know we did after the end of the 1st impeachment tobin come on did you expect any other difference in the
10:34 am
other outcome of this trial than what happened you know of course not but the newsflash was 7 senators actually had a spine but i thought it was surreal that the same senators particularly hall. cruz guys who were as culpable as trump has been are sitting back there you know playing to winks and you know smoking cigs and having a beer during this case i mean that to me was just as an american a shocking disrespect for what the heck went on but maybe that's just me oh well i have a feeling that says a little bit different but i have to bring it to you ned you know republicans don't have much to brag about i know there was a lot of rejoicing that happened immediately after but one look at this phone in the vote they looked anything but unified this just confirmed there is a divide amongst the republican party what do you feel is going to be the effects of that isn't any moving forward. why i think the word in this situation is not unity but clarity scotty i think this is really been
10:35 am
a clarifying moment moving forward as to who is on board with america 1st and who isn't so i think the 10 house republicans in the south and senators for self identifying for primary challenges next time they're on the ballot i mean they've shown house out of step they actually are with the base and trying to impeach on bogus charges on a big lie scotty i mean even the new york times is now updated and in the real world he called retracted their story about officers. and the fire extinguisher and it's a big lie that somehow incited sedition and insurrection when in fact they edited their own video they manipulated evidence in the trial so of course this is this is a clarifying moment for people to understand who's going to side with america 1st and who's going to side with the corporatist globalist approach and i think it's actually been a hot race and to really see where people are coming down. thank god we've got we've got the globalists any other ists that i mishear it's always it's the globalists it's the people who hate the real people in america or people who hate
10:36 am
you know they were very corporate say you very much thank you thank you very much well i've been a globalist corporatist my whole life i happen to love america i happen to love all americans equally some last some days but the idea that this insurrection just came out of nowhere it's just sort of a spontaneous combustion that happened when guys all dressed in your heavy military suits they had clubs i had bats they had guns they had you know come on man this was if you look at the record if you look at the transcripts on social media hang on if you look at the social media they've been talking about exactly what they're going to do they had a layout of the congress they knew where the offices were if that just happened miraculously then you know i've got some land in florida the subway but that mean that i want to play they told me to that point i think i am relating your complaints may be completely ok then hold those people accountable where does that have to go with donald trump and that's my question i'm all for holding those
10:37 am
people accountable if they put that on social media but now to that point it was easy to aim it at donald trump why are the republicans are saying fine let's write it on those people that. that you know that i don't you know having evidence come out you know hold on we're having evidence now come out that this was preplanned months ahead of time we know the pipe bombs you know and of the day before the r. and c. and the d.n.c. had nothing to do with anything that donald trump said on january 6th they were trying to pen all of that and quite frankly scottie trying to frame the nearly 75000000 trunk voters as though that behavior reflected them when in fact i think very little of it actually had anything to do with anybody that was actually a trump supporter i mean this was really about trying to figure out how they could disqualify donald trump for running for office again in the future and you know it is still open i mean they're even talking about the amendment which was used against confederates to try and deny the rights for office back in the day now this is trying to disqualify donald trump and shut down dissent from any of the trump supporters asking questions about
10:38 am
a highly unusual election but also moving forward of actually saying no we don't believe any of the narrative coming out of the media we don't believe the narrative coming out of the democrats including the big lie of insurrection and sedition when i think have been so so. you know i want to add i mean i don't live. far above the other the other of course the other big lie that somehow you all seem to miss every day is that for starting i don't know last march last april and numbers are sort of go higher the president of the united states actively said over 100 times that if we lose it's because this election was stolen from us now just let me ask you as a human being if the president of your country is telling you that if he loses the election that it's the full of people who are stealing the election from the if you heard that what would you think john. actually. weeks
10:39 am
ago in which they laid out very clearly in that time article by molly ball how they actually rigged a manipulative the election in 2020 i think there are a lot of questions that still need to be answered and they were self identifying in that time article so for example trump had to say they actually came out and tell told us what they did very specifically in that time article 12 and i think we have to actually start to look at those people what they did and how strong questions about their behavior and what they did to manipulate the process in 2020 well and have an idea what i would tell you about what i would do and ask you thinking of this about the witnesses because this was very surprising to a lot of people on saturday originally they voted hey we're going to call for witnesses and everybody got ready to hear the witnesses and then 2 hours later no no witnesses tell us at all about well i think you know you have many sources like i do. during the recess they have basically said look we have 2 additional senators so that we're going to we would have the largest vote. and any of these ever
10:40 am
happened and so if we can you give us those 2 in a sense of the 2 stood up so yes i'm going to be a vote for conviction then let's not waste our time and the people for something that we know we will not win because of the intransigence of the republicans because they believe it's a technical error but that of course right after it's all done mitch mcconnell comes out and says exactly what i've been saying for the last fricken 12 months it looks people in the eye and it says this guy is a danger this guy is a fraud this guy inside of this and he should go to jail oh but i voted for acquit on a technical because you can't do this in my head you know i was the lamest lamest i've ever heard never a lot of lame stuff out of the public got to give tobin credit there on that point mitch mcconnell shot republicans in the foot when he came out with his post speech because he didn't like he had a total double standard to what he voted for and what he actually believed. your thank. you graham it when when lindsey graham is calling out mitch mcconnell you
10:41 am
know that there are problems because lindsey graham said that we're going to come back and bite senators and their primaries in 2022 and in their elections in 2022 i think mitch mcconnell just couldn't stand it anymore because again he was never fully onboard with trump i mean we know that behind the scenes and he thought this was a shot pulled back as you realize the political calculation but i was one of the dumbest most insane asinine speeches i've ever seen given because of the double standard what you just voted to not convict him and you came out and said we should continue pursue i mean it really looks like mitch mcconnell start to lose and quite frankly scottie if the republicans come back in majority the senate i think it's questionable whether mitch mcconnell would be majority leader. now i'm. you know look at i remember when i was a member of the grand old party i remember that above all else there was morality above all else we hold ourselves to a higher level of morality and of decency and and now you have someone from the
10:42 am
who's obviously a mag right winger is now telling us that you know the height of the you know the really bad thing the mco that he told the truth but he really is going to screw up the 2022 election but that is moral if it gets to the moral as well oh and then your defendant said go for it moral to manipulate how is it moral to manipulate evidence scottie if democrats think they have some moral high ground when they're editing out 3 very key words patriotic and peaceful from the video as though those words were never said i mean i actually like to have a conversation with the house democrat managers and how did you manipulate suppose evidence in a trial i mean is that right is that wrong is that the moral thing to do and if we want to talk about morality way we could start talking about the lincoln project all freakin day and that you're right it could be a whole other segment that real quick get this accomplished what the democrats want did this actually take trump out of calling for the future or does in baltimore tell then from a democrat perspective no and you know donald trump is the world's greatest grafter
10:43 am
of all time he now has another way to go after people and say. please send me $25.00 every month so i think i can save america again i mean this is just play right into trump's b.s. and guess what democrats gave him that gift maybe it was the best party and you guys in my party get for joining me on the show thank you so much ned untethered we'll talk soon. now just on the other side we're going to take a look at the ongoing a game stop saga and how france is reacting to the council culture stating. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy foundation let it be an arms race in this on off and spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to exist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk.
10:44 am
max geysers financial survival guide liquid assets not those that you can convert into caste quite easily. to keep in mind no as if i'm into a place in a large geyser board. the british and american governments have often been accused of destroying lives in their own interests or you see in this these techniques is the state devising methods to him to essentially destroy the personality of an individual. by scientific. this is how one doctor's theories were allegedly used in psychological warfare against prisoners deemed a danger to the state that was the foundation for the method of psychological interrogation psychological torture of the cia disseminated from within the u.s. intelligence community and worldwide among our allies for the next 30 years and other victims say they still live with the consequences today.
10:45 am
10:46 am
i think there could be a real debate about who hates outsiders more the political class or wall street well if there was any doubt just look at the clear message which has been sent by the elite in both groups over the last few months you know for those in politics don't try to run unless you commit yourself to not upsetting the status quo of your own party because if you do and just happen to get elected by the people they will quickly limited constrain your actions and you might also face public really ation with little difference from your fellow party representatives now for wall street there is never been a more obvious exposure of how the market can be manipulated than the events of a january 28th when robin hood restricted buying on 13 stocks as it members were on a buying frenzy fueled by another group of members of a red it's a wall street bets for now for those of you still unfamiliar with robin hood it is billed as a trading platform and being transparent and giving power to individual traders rather than of large hedge funds and firms now robin hood c.e.o.
10:47 am
of lattimer tentative is saying his company they didn't do anything wrong when they blocked purchases of a certain stocks it was in order to meet deposit requirements from clearing house registered with the securities and exchange commission but as the violence reason they passed the truth or the chest damage control joining us now is rebecca wiser of water wealth management thank you so much for joining us rebecca thank you anderson. ok so we're almost 2 weeks since this initial events that kind of i think surprised everybody but it's actually those on wall street it's in a very strong message to them you know the story since then has been buried by the mainstream but i know there is action that has been going on in wall street boardrooms to make sure this never happened again what are you seeing and has there been any changes made in the short term. well i think right now people are just still in shock that you know there could actually be you know the whole thing with robin hood is that it's a democratization of trading right and so what you have kind of coming together is
10:48 am
this free kind of platform that came together with you know basically social media chat room reddit right and you had 3000000 people on wall street that's a group that basically said hey let's beat these hedge fund that their own game and their own game is the sure ok so it's called a short squeeze and not to get too technical but what happens when you are shorting a stock when hedge funds are shorty they're borrowing positions that they think will go down they're selling them as at the current higher rate and then as they go down they basically buy them back at a lower price make a profit or replace them so they're really truly betting against the stock so basically what happened was this chat room group said hey let's all buy these particular stocks and specifically game stop and answer because you bet yes and let's make we call a short squeeze on these hedge funds and it did cost a certain had fun over $2000000000.00 so then you saw that was in the 27th you know
10:49 am
really was starting but the 27th was really the culmination of it and then the 28th is when they shut down trading on specific as you said 13 positions and it really said wow and they didn't use the reason as they needed to obviously need capital requirements but they were able to raise those capital requirements very quickly so that's the problem and that's the question is what really happened here if you look behind the scenes there are there is some smoke well there is evidence of so but you know what this is the thing is there's are some ethical disclosures and then we also there are legal disclosures and iran would have visa like that they actually needed to disclose their relationship with these other trading houses that we're now finding out about to basically those who use their services. yeah unfortunately i haven't had a chance to actually look at their legal disclosure when you found but they probably are in there you know sky that they outsourced trading on to certain platforms and that's where they're broadcom right because what is going on is robin has outsourcing about 65 percent of their trade to
10:50 am
a group called citadel securities which is a clearing house but they are an affiliate of citadel the hedge fund which has a position in the short and was affected and also they mellon capital which is never had on that short that basically took a few 1000000000 are lost they sure they short of their short earlier part of the week and then all of that in trading stocks and then you had the dow that you had spun affiliate curies which does the trade for robin hood sure you know storing it up on the 28th or after the post closing only physician in other words being squeezed out of being able to buy the stock any further well and then there's a lot of conversation right now going on because robin hood was basically free per se to those that use it sort of like social media do you think it was kind of naive for those and nothing against the robin hood those a user service but it was a kind of naive for them to not know than the fine print that run it has to make their money somewhere they have to pay their bills and they're big mega mansions they probably have some of the their corporate c.e.o.'s have that there were
10:51 am
collecting something and making money somewhere even if it wasn't on that specific person and their trade they did was it naive of those robin-hood users to not read the fine print and realize that basically their data and information just like social media is being sold to other people that was using that to go up against them. that and that is then that's just i this is this is data and information is the new currency right so if you can aggregate a bunch of independent retail investors onto your platform act you know all their trees are free have all these you know no minimum been all these crazy things low margin requirements all this stuff and yet there it you know you have people come to you in droves but now what you have you have all of the data you know millions and millions of retail traders that you can then sell selling their trade orders to affiliates is up for you specifically 65 percent increase and you know here is using that data for and so you know you know the question that is has been or isn't about front running which is basically using aggregated nonpublic data for you know
10:52 am
insider trading and it is a problem and this is what i think people are most upset about is that hedge funds all the time have all kinds of aggregated data because they're so large they know the type of large transactions that they're acting alone could affect the market and there's nothing like on the retail side and show you get a robin hood combined with the public chat room with millions of users and now all this and you have a massive group of people that can make a difference in the market and can impact it which is exactly what happened here and this is why it's a problem because the 2nd that happens they shut it down and that's not going to work and i think that is something that maybe possibly behind the scenes was part of the goal was to expose that robin hood was not just this free and transparent corporation as they're being sold thank you so much for joining us is rebecca and we will continue to follow the things already. so now as americans try to debate how awoke they want to be under this new administration this new time we're
10:53 am
living in those outside the country are starting to get more and more upset as their intellectual cultural heritage are also beginning to come under attack do other countries have a reason to be upset at this new social science theories which are finding themselves being imported from the united states or charlotte devinsky joins us to talk about how france is telling the threat of awoke america and their ideas. yeah it's not unusual for an idea to strive to have been the united states and to be exported all over the world heck that's exactly what hollywood was designed to do it was a little bit more unusual is just quite how upset french intellectuals and politicians are said to be over ringback some of the most recent exports pointing question would be black likes matter and only 2 movements now the french have bristled at the idea of americans telling them that they are racist all that racism in france is systemic now it's not as
10:54 am
a that there are not programs table but i mean by is one example somebody saying to me that when african-americans was still in chains in the u.s. brought sort of 1st black person being elected to the parliament here so in their mind they were way ahead of the curve considering the state or race relations in america right now it doesn't look like their solutions work so well so i'm not sure we need them really but the other thing is that there's this whole speech and discussion about half colonialist it is to impose a different culture on on on unsuspecting populations on the french are saying well you are imposing something that may or may not work for your country but it's not working for from now if i say the word france i bet 3 things are going to come to mind once again teach wine and of course 11 or luck because you doesn't have carrots on that top all that romantic destination getaway list so when the need to
10:55 am
movement flooded over the atlantic and suddenly the french are being told normal he didn't like it so much so that even hardcore french feminists like the actress bridget i don't signed a letter describing the need to movement is being ridiculous and hypocritical and essentially said that this was a witch hunt against men now the so-called cancel culture has really. he had that blood boiling and one of the biggest newspapers in frosty morning even took offense when a new director of the paris opera issued a diktats saying that if he wanted to diversify so often and blackface the 1st of all france doesn't collate figures when it comes to race and religion because essentially it says that these things are irrelevant because everybody in france is considered to be equal so the editor in chief of the role sent something along the lines of cancel culture being a continental sport in america which are aimed to wipe off the map the works that
10:56 am
symbolize the domination of the white man that others including president michael of france are taking aim at the us press particularly in the wake of a spate of islam if terror attacks it took place draws the end of 2020 at present matters quite the coverage in the u.s. press has been biased and said that it legitimized the violence this lack of solidarity as he saw right when packing as others saw it came after t.j. here for us it was a head it in is a mess terror attack talk about being pretty close to the bone others say this problem is much deeper it's a threat to its political identity is a threat to the republic and to french democracy and to the functioning of the state it's not a matter of cultural identity far off there is no simple left right divide like you've got with the democrats and the republicans in the united states the specter
10:57 am
of what happened in the aftermath of last month's election in us left the french troops belief oh god how could people be so divided if they sort or whatever happened to get through problems listening to each other efforts to get along is tree of intellectual estimates of course the country in want to. say yes when don't look from junior tree to even the french are radical or yes who gives an. rollo. well that is all for today he woke up show me on twitter i've got a huge hash tag here and d.h. will see you tomorrow. please. this is a speculative attack that iran must is making on the fed right so he's already
