that was covering the problem of the car auction east long time problem, year old to snore, to own a in line. we defined a make. it is very hard to change the way of thinking, measure it or the can accept the bribery debt at the sure is hardly for change of thing. hold itself up as a model of integrity. the results of transparency international for romance as challenges renewed and shows across the block, the fairies widespread is content. so let's even sky all see paris? that's the way things look for most go sofa. got some pictures companies the r t will new center from geneva. pretty. what is, what would you like to meet with 21 degrees in a moment. sunny day is going to get up to 3132 degrees later, a lovely day. but the main focus is that it's of course, the big russia us summit will remain to say at the end of the day,
2:31 am
whether that looks funny after that we'll cover it here on our t introduction. ah, ah, with towards the summit, the bike administration pushed for a summit with russia. moscow agreed what the biden people hope to achieve remains unclear. we are told the white house wants to restore predictability and stability . what could possibly go wrong?
2:32 am
me look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except when the shorter the conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about artificial intelligence at the point obviously is too great truck rather than fear i would take on various jobs with artificial intelligence, real summoning the theme and a robot must protect its own existence with the
2:33 am
me. greetings and salutations. here in the united states of america, it has become very easy to be cynical. we live inside an empire of never ending war disguise. this foreign policy, we vote in a political system that protects outright. bribery is free speech. we work in an economic system that enriches the few at the expense of the many but every so often we are reminded that true political activism and hard work can indeed prevail. and that we don't have to give in to cynicism all day every day. just last week, environmental activists and indigenous rights group saw their unyielding hard work and efforts to change the status quo, actually pay off the notorious keystone ex l pipeline. after a 10 year long fight is finally dead and buried on june
2:34 am
9th t. c. energy announced that after a comprehensive review of its options and in consultation with its partner, the government develop berda. it has terminated the keystone ex l pipeline project . thank goodness. and while we need these victories to keep us all. busy busy from falling into that pit, the cynicism we also mustn't get complacent because like some big game of big oil, whack a mole, just as one pipeline goes the way of the dinosaur. another sprouts up to take its place. enter enbridge is line 3 tar sands pipeline. in my home state of minnesota, which saw a major victory for big oil and the politicians, they lobby as a 3 judge panel voted 2 to one to affirm the minnesota public utility commissioners decision to grant enbridge keep permits for the project. turning back a legal challenge by environmental and tribal groups in response to the ruling
2:35 am
would normally do co founder and executive director of the indigenous lead group, honor the earth feel she told the media. we are sorely disappointed in this decision that allows the state of minnesota under governor or tim walls to continue to shove a pipeline through a job way, lands and waters at a time of escalating climate crisis. one immediate result result is that hundreds of hundreds of more rest of water protectors will occur because of this. those brave water protectors will not my friends, they will not give into judicial defeat. they will not give in to the cynicism of our times. they will continue the fight to save their lands, their history, and most importantly their future. and that is why we will always continue watching hawks. if you want to know what's going on a city and you want to rush, let me show you what you are. the roy throw, strike, math grade,
2:36 am
ha, that played? does that make sense? so much with this web page. so hopefully you'll well go over when you're watching the locks. i am robin and i'm a nice across so amazing looking at the big oil fighting again one pipeline dies and another one rises up to take its place. and here we go again and in kind of a repeat of what we saw over the last 10 years. with keystone indigenous people stepping forward, water protectors, environmentalist, activists all stepping forward to stop this new pipeline in minnesota. and it is taken all of those groups and so much organizing and so much trying to elevate these issues because as you know, american don't tend to care about the native american population nor the preservation of native lands. and at this point, i think that, you know, to push environmental awareness to keep talking about the dangers associated with, with climate change. it is frustrating to see that you still have to have so much
2:37 am
force before anything is actually done or anything stop. and we think that this is somewhat of a delay, because it only provides for another opportunity for pipeline and yet another place shortly thereafter. and this is tar sands to which is, which is just some of the worst you can possibly be pumping through the environment, especially if you get a leak or a spill and things like that. it, this line 3 has a capacity potentially with 600 or 760000 solar and 60100000 barrels a day. that's a lot of potentially environmentally ruining. tar sands and oil going through an area. but let's be honest, they're trying to build this at the beginning of the mississippi river, like the mighty mississippi, the river, the cuts america, and have this literally, this line 3 goes right at the beginning of that right now there are protests, there's, there camped out. we've already seen clashes where the police are coming in, trying to arrest them and move them. and it just, it breaks my heart the,
2:38 am
we're still not learning the why do these people have to go out there again. it took us 10 years to get rid of keystone. why do we have to then sit and fight again, but credit to them? they're standing up and doing it. exactly. and i think that to, to their credit, they've been doing this and are committed to doing it for years. we should all be frustrated because at this point we're watching the current administration talk abroad about climate change, those and big part of the g 7, someone. it's going to be a big part of any conversations with our european allies. meanwhile, right here in our own backyard, it seems as though americans are absolutely fine in our government. it's absolutely fine with consistently drilling consistently disrupting and consistently running over the native american population for on energy interest. what's interesting, you said because collin reese, the senior campaigner at the advocacy group oil change international man, he let loose on the by the administration over the pipeline and their reactions to this. he went up and told the media line 3 would have met the equivalent of 50 new coal powered coal fired power plant. it's a colossal de,
2:39 am
vaster for the climate and for communities every day. president biden refuses to stop the line 3 pipeline is a slap in the face to environmental justice communities and renewed breaking of his promises on climate and indigenous rights. he campaigned hard on that, but he was going to be that guy, the green energy guy, and you know, they're, they're holding his feet to the fire and basically have an indigenous right czar. and we're still seeing these things happen. good for them for continuing to push. oh, most definitely. keep on that flight. it's colbert 19 fears vanish across america and business as usual, adapts to a new normal. not everyone is on board. normally, wasn't that great or even good for everyone? in fact, many minorities spilled into cobit backdrop, elevated inequities that were want him. and there is no turning back without addressing centuries old racism. there few places where it isn't more prevalent than health care from experimenting on black without anesthesia to develop marvels
2:40 am
of gynecology. so was a ski experiment and using prisoners to test medications under the monitor of blacks just don't feel pain. there's a lot to be said and evidence in health care and equities. that history is only trumped by the consistent and persistent value of the medical system to address the maternal mortality in black women and the lack of adequate care model in black community. this year, the american medical association, a may develop an ambitious plant undo before racism and present a bias in medicine calls for excitement you'd assume, but not so fat. a group of physicians, including several white southern delicate accuse a may of reverse racism. you know, because when you dissolve racism against black, the result is racism against whites. sure. but incoming a president, dr. gerald harman says, quote, this plan is not up for debate. during a 6 day virtual meeting, the ambitious equity plan and policies were discussed despite some why doctor
2:41 am
saying it goes too far. they feel the policy echoes critical race theory and blames white too much. but racism is the. 4 only problem in health care, a growing number of hospital staff refusing to get the cobit 19 vaccine is another boiling issue. in houston, texas, a federal judge recently threw out a lawsuit, filed by employees at houston methodist hospital over the hospitals requirement that all of the staff feedback needed. 178 employees were suspended last week over their refusal to adhere to the policy. $117.00 of those employees seemed to overturn the requirement and their suspension in there to fit employees. call the cobra vaccine. experimental endangering in even when as far as to make not feet and holocaust comparisons. infectious disease expert dr. bob arnett joins us now with me. fit the thank you dr. bob. reporting dr. bob. oh, there's a lot to unpack here. can you explain the new policy, the amy as instituting and what it means for equity and health care?
2:42 am
and why do you think it's receiving backlash? you're still interest here. there was a marriage resigned and crazy about even on a blog. and he personally what races? so you mentioned was races. when you look at nursing health care in united states, you have to say in terms of institutional racism, it will be the worst of why simply, it has the very worst possible outcomes covered is done. is it shown the jag we jump in or not just mothers like babies, just tremendous high blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, to be seen by abject total failure. now we see across the board failure of public health in terms of coverage for mashing back and forth washing your virus. and he's just
2:43 am
a disaster machining. there isn't any real precision or accountability. public health work has to start to start with black americans because again, terrible, terrible, there with a medical system health systems. it really is institutionally races in terms of terrible outcomes. doctor raises policies and the history and present a manifestation of push. many blacks and other minority groups away from care doctors don't often reflect the communities they serve and the historical impact of racism and in medicine, as we're talking about is very well known with over 270000 members. the m a represents a quarter of the nation's doctors and is overwhelmingly white. what can minority groups expect and implementing the racial equity plan? do they, you know, is their hope in the implementing of this plan. first of all, you have everybody works. healthcare providers of color,
2:44 am
more spots and medical schools practitioner, physicians, assistant nursing programs across the board. in terms of public policy, of the national policy. states like mississippi, the rank 31st and vaccination, 51st health care for 46 in terms of the copper to lease that we have stuff in there instead of accountability. you know, i have wasted a tremendous resource in not having the right neighborhood rooms, places like pharmacies and schools for african american able to promote that became much more vital apply important part of american economic life are able to in human health care that really, pretty jeff is, i mean, it is you, when you look at the numbers for an african american woman in terms of her wrist as we talked about terms of return or tele arrangements or countries. i mean, is a national disgrace for some reason. you know, public policy,
2:45 am
public doesn't seem to get the same ranking. as you know, the, the wish agnew super therapies there may waiting for pages of financial statements . it's just, it's, it's wrong. it's more corrupt john last night really lucky. 18. 48. 0 rush. he asked what it was, and they told me, no, that's a genocide. 16000. you know, native americans were killed, trinity go russia when i 1st a genocide, so there is a long history this. i don't think it's to cancel culture. i think it's truth. and dr. bob, medical staff and hospitals and clinics across the country are pushing back against mandates for the probate vaccine. we know that in houston, a lawsuit was filed by the staff and it was thrown out. what do you make that decision? and is there a message you have for hospital in clinic staff that refuse the vaccine? sure these are very for the message and that is looking for patients from the compromise and general public enemy to the actually if you look at
2:46 am
a hospital and you compromise population to be 20 percent, they're trench patients. it's 100 percent. you are not promoted and they're not protected. so if you're visual cell largely for some fictitious ranging doesn't want to get backs. no evidence. there's any great risks of actually, especially m r a r n a that seems like a dollar and 5 or you do as an individual who's not actually going to the hospital post a real risk to those visuals in ice. and usually just on going to transplant therapy or how you're having a variety of reasons where they are compromise. so i think the hospital absolutely right. and within which could be just judging, making sense. you don't push patients 1st. i could not agree with the more doctor, because i think this is one of those cases where when you really look at it, it's like these are the front line workers. these are the people that we got to put
2:47 am
patients 1st in these situations. maybe if they were in a different field of work in a corporation or something that didn't deal with people's lives on a day to day basis, maybe there's an argument somewhere in there, maybe not in the holocaust end of things. but maybe there's an argument in there for mandating things, but at the end of the i think that i agree that i think the judge is right to throw this out. and i can thank you enough for coming out and educating our viewers. as you always do, thank you sir. played such a great favorite anchor team usually like to say. alright, as we go to break, remember, you can also start watching those hawks on demand to the portable tv app. it's a great app, so you definitely download it. check it out, you get this show and many others. alright, coming up, the costs of goods is rising and corporations are blaming this rise on the rise of minimum wage for better richard wolf join us to cut through all of that propaganda . so stay tuned for watching the whole i
2:48 am
2:49 am
the, the me, while american instantly awaited cities reopening. what they didn't anticipate was the price tag where the u. s. largely shut down for over a year. social outings were a thing of the past. but now as americans with pent up energy rush out to restaurants, bars and other hangouts, they face a rude awakening. cough just keep rising from furniture and cars to be growth and chicken wings. consumer prices have grown rapidly since january 1. corporate could be the complicated supply chain structure that hasn't recovered from the panoramic supply shrinks the demand is exploding. consumer prices have grown 5 percent in the past month. that's the largest jumps in summer of 2008. thinking about taking a quick summer trip. think again, airline prices are also searching with a rise of 7 percent. car and truck rentals are going up to, to the,
2:50 am
to 12 percent. and once you get to your destination, if you're thinking of taking or lift, right, share prices are $3.00 to $4.00 times what they were prepaying them for you. what the july celebrate or that barbecue grill may not be in school as have been in previous years, either be growth state again, chicken wing. they're all in short supply. in fact, chicken wing price is shot a 99 percent because for say they can't get enough workers. and companies like burrito chain to postway or boosting prices as well. first part chipotle a blames raising employee wages. but feel pay packages might fill a different story. in 2020 feel, brian nickel took home $30000000.00. that's nearly $3000.00 times more than the average to put a worker salary. professor, professor of economics and international affairs and author of democracy at work, richard joins us now. good to have you, professor. thank you. glad to be here. it's hardly gone on notice. prices
2:51 am
are surging everywhere. what can americans expect and what is causing the feet rise in the cost of living? well, i'm afraid every prediction that i've looked that indicates that these prices are going to continue to rise. the only debate is for how long and how high will it go. but let me argue with consensus about why this is happened. first of all, it is not happening because there is a labor shortage. there is no such thing. what you, what they mean is given the prices they are willing to pay for workers, the wages they often. and given the working conditions, they offer those workers, the workers are not coming forward. what does it mean? there's a shortage. it means you're not willing, as an employer to do what you have to do, to bring the people back to work or just step in the money,
2:52 am
save in the face of coal. to spend the extra to make it safe in terms of social distance masks, of testing, of all the things that we now need and yet haven't been willing to raise the wages . because let's face it for the last 14 months. the working people, particularly in the restaurants and hospitality industries, had gone without their job and i've had the on unemployment compensation. if even bad i've had to dip into their savings. what i think is going on the restaurants are in trouble. the food service industry is in trouble. they lost a lot of profits over the last year when they had to re learn the lesson that you're going to have my machines and you can have nice the periods. but if you don't have not working man or woman,
2:53 am
it's all not going to happen for you. they want to make up their profits, but they don't want to tell people, honestly, we're raising our prices to recoup bob. bob needs a booker who's only asking for the same thing. they are. i did somehow, they're the bad guy who's causing all the problems sheet shot. and people shouldn't take in series that they shouldn't. i couldn't agree. the more, you know, doctoral we keep hearing about supply chain issues, causing products sort of shortages appears. this might be amplified by the covered pandemic. but were there other markers of disaster for our supply chain and how can we mitigate the disruption for consumers and their wallets? every time you have an economic crash of the magnitude of the last 15 or 16 months, of course you're going to have supply chain disruption. that's like saying when it
2:54 am
was a rocky because it rain. sure. there's an element of truth in rain and some of that rain was a problem to blame the supply chain is this is the kind of sam, excuse me, industry worth. it's, sol knows that part of running a business is anticipating option downs interruptions. that's why we have something called the inventory so that if things go badly for a while, we can accommodate. but we have such a profit driven system that we don't want to spend the money to hold an inventory which they could. and they should every ok what they want to be forthcoming. and so we didn't plan the managed thing. disruptions we didn't have a plan and wage. we didn't take correct steps. all of that is the kenny's for all
2:55 am
of them to be push the side. so we can find the workers who want hire, what ages, who are not willing to come back unless you give them a bit of help. you're blaming them is the alternative to facing their flag that we've had a system that knows crashes every 47 years? no, but didn't plan for it, didn't accommodate this ad, no way to get around. it were all supposed to now accept their function by paying them the higher prices that they want richer fair to say that these big companies were just more interested in stock buyback. and actually stocking their own shelves. actually we did not want to some money. the problem, i'm make the arrangements to deal with cobra. them by the way, not just before over paid. you know, it's not the 1st virus we bad and not just because they weren't ready for the crash,
2:56 am
which we had a review years. but they didn't. you been after called war paint the kind that correct? yes. if you're smart enough to understand now that supply chain is the important outcome you didn't understand at 612 and 18 months ago and take the time to correct the steps they want to act as well. this is all st. imagine from the sky that they have no responsibility for except the course of the worker. it's one of the few cents more an hour. it really isn't really expect the goal for me as a professionally complement. it's an ugly spend. the goal to observe. and professor will many of these, many of these chain restaurants lecture poway, they actually apply for p p p low. it's interesting to see all of this and then to hear what you just said, and we're watching the salaries of the c o continue to increase, yet they're still talking about the problems that they're having. getting workers
2:57 am
to actually come back. what are your thoughts on that? well, i see you in a way, just before we went on the i hear you said perfectly nicely. the c e o. let's pay chipotle a mexican grill corporation. the see in your that is a man named brian nichol. his pay co pay and 2020 the year of the crash and the cold. it was $38000000.00. me doesn't want to pay work as an extra few cents an hour to get them to come to gym. vote like he wants to jack up the price and blame these workers while he takes home $38000000.00, something obscene going on here. that a man in that position would make decisions and then blame somebody if he wants to read it easier for the company. take
2:58 am
a copy of his salary only. i don't know why the 1000000 rather really saying it's completely. it's completely up to date and professor i thank you for coming on and educating our audience as you always do. always a pleasure, sir. thank you. all right, that is our show for you today. remember in this world we are definitely not told that we are loved enough. so i tell you all, i love you. i am hi robin anatomy chicago. keep on watching those hawks and have a great day and night. everybody. ah, these are the 4 people who pulled the trigger. i survive something on survival. one of the hardest things that i had the face was not having a face at a low patient life. i accepted accept the fact that i made that appointment. we had
2:59 am
no fears del change very fast for shots, different stories behind the bullets. the global. busy geopolitical game, as it's called, sometimes rest upon the foundation of us dollars and privately us, all right, world reserve or got a major russia to the outside of the dollar. that gives them a way to maneuver in a way that no other country can. but all other countries will end the late in the end of the ability to maneuver outside the dollar. it's an incredible freedom that they now have nor stream to being completed, bypassing ukraine, delivering energy directly from russia to germany is just the 1st of many, many, many when
3:00 am
the, the in the today, super power. somebody can the 1st to biden foods in face to face as president, spring. the nations close together, or would it drive an even deeper wedge between the nations? moscow's top diplomat has already set the mood for the russian delegation. the government in all this going on under the roof of a luxurious 18th century veteran geneva will take it around the mansions library where the presidents are set to meet the suites who were kind enough to offer this access to this room. and the villa went to extra ordinary length.
