2:30 am
off the war and gain a stand. and if you are angry at the thought of the taliban now driving american tanks and barring us weapons wait until you hear who actually paid for them. which upset if you, if you need to go the hospital, it might be a very long time before you receive any attention as a nationwide staff shortages are causing more than just a headache. this is a new blood test. i tell you if you suffer from something called long and finally they say a crime doesn't pay but mer. de blasio thinks you can pay criminals not commit any more crimes. i actually get called sources, but we'll work. we will give you the details. i'm sky now use and you're watching news. huge right here on our to america. that get started. ah, in the game war there are winners. there are losers with united states pulling out of afghanistan. many of you, the united states as the loser, and see the war and get a stand as a absolute total failure. however,
2:31 am
there were actually some winners, and we're talking some really big winners to break that down for us to bring in our d correspond contact faren, winners, losers, good gray. so now bring us the list. who are the winners? so let's talk defense contractors, shareholders, the military industrial complex. so we've got some charts for you to look at here. so 1st we're going to take a look at boeing. we have boeing who had an, a total return of $97.00 point or excuse me, 974 percent. now what they did, scotty is this dividend channel drip calculator. they said if you invested 10 grand and 2001, how much would it be today? there you go with boeing, $107000.00. also as we keep looking at these, i want you to not really focus on the board member names, but look at their titles, former vice chair of the joint chiefs of staff. let's go to the next one. we've got raytheon total return, 331 percent. your stock would be worth more than $43000.00, a retired air force,
2:32 am
general retired navy admiral for a deputy secretary of defense. we got lockheed martin, 1235 percent. how's that even possible? 133000. your stock will be worth today. or retired air force. general retired marine corps general. then you got general dynamics. you got 6625 percent. your stock would be worth $72000.00. and you have a former deputy secretary of defense and a retired navy admiral, even have james madison who we no former secretary of defense and a former marine corps general. and lastly, we have northrop grumman, $1190.00 per 6 percent more, $129000.00. your stock would be and you have a retired navy admiral and a retired air force general. now, scotty, it's important to know that all of those companies, except for boeing, the vast majority of their revenue is given by the us government. so here we're not only helping fund a lot of these wars,
2:33 am
their banking on them too. so it's one of these things where they now have this brown university cost of war project, where they're actually totaling the numbers to see how much we've actually spent. we have over 80000000000, excuse me, 800000000000. indirect warfare costs 296000000000 to care for our american veterans . now that that number, they show that includes lifetime care and disability. but as far as how much each soldier is making still have yet to determined. but we do have $85000000000.00 to train the afghan guard army and $750000000.00 given by the us taxpayer to pay for the afghan soldier salary. so if that's not trying, trying to bribe someone to fight, i don't know what is and then that have them turn around and kind of flee and, and as quickly as they did. but with $2.00 trillion dollars total of what this war is worth. what this war is cost us. that would be like paying $300000000.00 per day for 20 years. scotty, that is absent. and i think time right now where everybody's going. what were we
2:34 am
therefore? what were they say? terrorism that's very generic. know specifics are being given of what we actually accomplish in the area. i think right there is probably the most accurate numbers that were accomplished for the last 20 years and why i think you saw this continued fighting happened within it, but wars are expensive. fair and order offensive. what do we know about those in the past? well, we have england, you have england just paid off their world war one debt. believe it or not, in the 19 teens, they finally paid off their world war one. at the time it was 21000000000 december 31st 2006. okay. then we had germany who had to pay world war one, repre reparations. again, this is the 1900 teens today would be around $269000000000.00. it took them 92 years to pay it off, scotty. they finally did it october, 3rd, 2010. but again, if it's going to be on, you know, with germany, they got a little bit help from the united states after world war 2 and letting them sell their debt to us to give off to england and france. but it's one of these things,
2:35 am
scotty, where the american taxpayers are going to be paying this for a long time when he is. it's not like we're not already in debt. when you look at the several trillion dollars you had going into this 20 years ago, we were in debt. why in the world we even continue to spend the money? and once again, i think we're finding out the reasons because you have this evolving door at the pentagon and i am so tired of people not waking up and realizing why we sometimes get into some of these different theaters and these different arrangements that have nothing to do with american security. it's because of that reason right there because somebody somewhere is making a few dollars. i always thank you for bringing some light to this. got a joy and discuss this. even more is better. how come a veteran and concert come to your corey males, corey? i know you listen to parent support right now. i don't know if it makes your blood boil because you and i both know that those military right now usually are the ones that least taken care of. we look at what's going on, the veterans hospitals. we look at veterans housing. we looked at actually housing on basis right now. they're absolutely deplorable. so why can't we get this right? if we talk so much in this country, how much we love our beloved military,
2:36 am
why does it seem like these contractors make more that are actually military makes? and why do we end up wasting the money in areas sometimes like what we've seen the last 20 years, they don't produce anything. well, 1st off, let me go ahead and say that. yeah, it does frustrate me. you know, it's been over 7 years in iraq. has been over 2 and a half years and i was in kosovo pakistan. ukraine during high to these areas. so yeah, i see it now let me break down 2 things. however, if you're talking about military contractors with regards to those, you're buying protection for protection on embassy or mobile security, you'll actually find that their day rate is cheaper than that of natural deployed soldier. when you look at all of that personnel that's required to actually back him, now when it comes to those who are wanting to create and want to continue these endless wars. and i said in iraq, it's absolutely the company that you just described who are supplying materials and equipment and logistics maintenance contracts, spare parts contracts. i mean, these are guys who are making hundreds of billions of dollars and saw where,
2:37 am
you know, lockheed martin has one of the highest lobby costs in d. c. and what you see is that we need more patents and less millions. what's going on is that all of these people may meet that 30 year deadline, depending on those stars. they're already looking at what boards on the industrial complex they're going to sit on to make millions of dollars, basically advising and helping their body to are also in the pentagon, looking to rotate out into those board positions as well. so again, this is where they start putting themselves 1st and they start putting all the soldiers strategic elements in our national security last. and that's a big issue. well, and you know, and i'm just as much frustrated about the trying to dollars in the end that we put in ourselves into debt over fighting wars over the last few decades. but then you also talk about the cost of lives and those are truly price. if i look at all of those families that had people were return not alive, not in, but in caskets, infuriates me right now when you put those in that these are just called for it, which is why i want to talk about, i can't say,
2:38 am
because so much as i was looking at the veterans on social media and their comments, i have yet to see one who was not sad at how it ended yesterday. because so many of you lost your friends. you lost what you considered your brothers and sisters in combat over there and you're going, why did i lose this lie for it? talk to me about i can't stand what went wrong. and when do you feel like it did over the past 20 years? went wrong, the minute the american thought that we were in the business of nation building, what we went over there to do in the very beginning, it was part of that was to eliminate the terrorists who were responsible for the $911.00 attack and also stop him from being a safe haven to terrorism that have been done and perfected with cp opperation irregular warfare, asymmetric warfare. and special operations forces with big, with the support of the intelligence communities basically going out putting together h b t packets. we then got into this ship of nation building. again, a lot of that, as you mentioned earlier, is probably a result of these people who are sitting on these boards today. they want to
2:39 am
continue to perpetuate this idea that we need to stay there and arm and build and defend and help to create a democracy. you know, because we're american are arrogant. see that every other country needs democracy like us just never ends. that's why we do the same thing. we saw the secretary and violence re got bothers 6 after the iraq constitution was put in place when it comes out. and this was a lot. busy busy of plans to begin with, and i, i tell all my veteran brothers the sisters who were out there and i brought back to my people who are draped that american flag as well. but it was the suits, not the boots who was responsible for this failure. the taliban and all of the chairs networks and then we had to watch as americans, but they had the time they never had to leave and they knew they could wait us out . that's why they're called the graveyard of empires because we went in there and every single president it came in a power continue to try and rubber stamp with their name on things. and the reality was that what joe biden just did, he handed up pianos, santa china, china wants this for economic resource warfare. they are going to expose this as
2:40 am
the greatest existential threat. and they're going to create the one road one belt, which is gonna essentially create your trade route, and they're gonna continue to expand with the help of other great research superpowers. corey, there's so much to digest on that. i wish we had more time for the 1st side, so i'd say thank you so much for your service. we're gonna have you back on because i was going to have you want to talk about how you felt about the taliban now riding around and vehicles that you brought over there to fight them. but we're going to have to continue to segment later. thank you. once again for joining and when we return, we are going to shift gears as hospitals across the nation are capacity. and well concerning is there more than just the rise of covey cases to blame wherever the report after the break the the
2:41 am
follow up on something we've been talking about for awhile and that is, lack of leadership, but never ending money. printing the unexpected upside of the pandemic kenya's experiencing in the elephant baby boom. 200. why does kenya have so many cars? and how has the panoramic impacted people's lives? is andree role is very big along in any fact he end up killing himself. i don't believe leon and you got one via well, and i will make, i was i get him in the media group, they get, they say,
2:42 am
lucky to me. mean it will cause that. and as i land the, when the money that you don't the, they didn't even notice whether the equals, you go, there's no local, but i know the company just because in order to join me every thursday on the alex simon show and i'll be speaking to guess in the world, the politics sport, business, i'm show business. i'll see you then me the, the news
2:43 am
the was there is a simple blood test that can help identify whether you are suffering from long term effects of the cobra. 1900 faction liquidity, new joint research by university of california and the university of cambridge, a blood test consumer via the 1st accurate diagnosis of symptoms associated with over 19. this is a long after the infection, or the course of science haven't or has the full story. what happens when pub in 1900 symptoms don't go away. while mild, moderate cobra, 1900 symptoms last about 2 weeks for most people in some people, lingering health problems can wreak havoc for months. that's what scientists call long covert where patients experience lingering health problems. even when they have recovered from the virus, they rained from fatigue, loss of taste, or smell, chest a non stop headaches, shortness of breath, and fever. but in these patients,
2:44 am
there is no longer live corona virus running in the body. if tested, the person would test negative for the virus, but still remain severely sick for months. to 3rd are people who experience moderate current of virus symptoms and which so called long covert. in other words, they still have symptoms for more than 30 days after their positive tests. and among those who test positive for coven, 68 percent experience at least one symptom after 30 days, their trash hold for long covert. this increase to 77 percent. when the researchers followed up with people after 60 days, yet patients with these long term symptoms no longer show a positive cove in 1900 tests. even anti body test would look for immune cells produce in response to infection are estimated to miss almost one in 3 cases. so imagine going to the doctor for these mysterious conditions and feeling abandoned
2:45 am
or dismissed by health care providers or receive conflicting advice, blood. now there is hope, the door to the 1st i correct diagnosis of long cove. it is on the horizon, according to a new joint research by the university of california and the university of cam bridge. a new technique can now identify a pseudo keane that is also produced in response to infection by t cells and is likely to be detectable for several months and potentially years following infection. scientists believe that this will help develop a much more reliable diagnostic for those individuals who did not get a diagnosis at the time of an affection. this blood test can also help identify where the patients immunity to the vaccine may fade over time, which will shed light on whether those who have been vaccinated will need boosters to keep them protected. and while more research needs to be done,
2:46 am
scientists are optimistic of the blood test will be available within 6 months. for news views, hughes cited having ger, rti. i help later say a nationwide nurse shortage. come as a result of the pandemic. as many nurses have chosen to switch careers after suffering burn on fatigue, but those who stay are still being placed in quarantine if exposed. also adding to the reduction numbers is the pandemic motivated. many of them actually to retire. so what does this mean for hospitals in the mouth they can care for before being considered a capacity. we bring in doctor john brozowski, medical doctor at washington pain center. thank you so much for joining me, dr. brodsky. thanks so much. always great talking to you later, this actually what is it like right now to be in the medical field in 2021 as compared to years past in regards not only with your own progress, but dealing with staff issues like every other industry handling we've always enjoyed taking care patients, but now it's more challenging than ever. we always been appreciated,
2:47 am
but i remember last year we were heroes and it's a great feeling, but it's gone on and on and on. and he had this tremendous drain on the system and people to begin to break without the proper support for their family or support at the work environment. i mean being a nurse is grueling work. i mean, physicians are difficult to, but the nurse is always at the patients bedside to really good, excellent work with their care. and not only looking physical labor in terms of lifting and pulling and tugging and all that. but it's mental labor, it's exhausting. so you can understand why this would, this would happen well, and when you look at, you know, when we're going to talk about our privacy doctors, you go to school for lots and lots of years. you're not just going to give it up based off of a year or 2 brown, maybe some do that being said that what these nurses, the shortage of them does you think especially a viable and hospitals having this kind of less of numbers. did it? does that means they're going to be able to care for less patients? well, your right to some extent, you know, there has to be
2:48 am
a safety. we cannot overwhelm the system with run nurse, nothing care for patients while now you can do 6, or now you can do a that clearly is unsafe and the end the nurse and the hospital minister should we're not going to do that. and again, an anesthesiologist, which is what i am, we know what safety factors are and going beyond that, it becomes unsafe. we will never do that to a patient. so this is where we need to coordinate care, maybe with different hospitals. going to rewrite this hospice. overwhelmed, let's go over here, except to have a better coordinate coordination of care. dr. nebraska, and i have talked in the past, obviously about everything from vaccines to what people should really be fearful when it comes to code, etc. right now, the big fear factor is these hospitals are overwhelmed, coven numbers are up, and that's what's causing these major runs for those are being used to justify a lot of cases. the locking down of cities, putting mask on kids mandates. all sorts of government policies are being made because these hospitals are overwhelmed. what are you seeing or you see that these hospitals are being overwhelmed?
2:49 am
is it a fact that there's just more patients, or is there not a lot of the same amount of staff to take care of? what would be a typical number at this time? i think it's multi factorial unfortunately, not one answer, but your point is incredibly well. take an old case or out the case or not. i don't care about cases. i care about death. i mean, people are sick, things like that kind of 19 and their own studies show there's on the cdc, a 99.9 percent recoverable. obviously, if you're over $74.00, is 94 percent recoverable. so we have to look at what we're actually doing. are these patients that are in the system? are they all related a code that possible? and again, the very question with these numbers going to see you see has given us numbers that might not have been genuine and counted suicides is coded motor vehicle licenses. cobit so we've done a little bit deeper and when i do my own personal research, in terms vice, you care things, i guess they're not necessarily overwhelmed. they're a champion cubic capacity. didn't want to be a 3 percent ice user,
2:50 am
very expensive. they want to be at least 80 percent capacity, maybe a 100. they can go to a 120 percent capacity and still offer good care. well, in real quick, before i let you go, doctor nebraska, this is the 2nd wave of code that hitting the united states. also having other countries as well are, we know the 1st wave hit a lot of these at risk and most risk of all the patients who is this 2nd wave really hitting because we're hearing obviously the different variance are going, are we still seeing at risk? maybe of a different demographic are they still the very at risk the just got lucky and missed the 1st wave? i think we talking about it's actually good news actually you might catch it, but it's not lethal or not as legal. so in other words, it's like it's like a cold or flu virus, haven't contagious, not as lethal. they've covered the regional one. you know, you could catch it and it didn't have the ability, but they're finding out each one of these various, the viruses are less and less potent with respect to mortality or mobility,
2:51 am
the useful. but it's only less. well dr. brusquely, always a pleasure to talk with you and thank you for actually bringing to light. i know it's not easy for some time for you to speak the truth and i really appreciate you coming on and saying it or thank you very much. a crime is on the rise while various merrier mayors are actually bad tracking from the to be defend the police narrative merit apply. joe has another idea. busy he would like to try to reduce the crime in the streets of new york city. through his advanced peace program, the city will offer a $1000.00 per month stipend to young men involved in lethal firearm offenses. at the same time, they will pair them with neighborhood change agents. credible messengers, meaning they bring life experience, conflict, radiation, and mentorship skills to the target population. so basically, instead of sending these young men to jail, the mayor wants to pay them to go out with older ex cons, therefore, hopefully inspiring them not to commit any new crimes. now this program is not diblasio idea as it has been tried and various communities in california over the
2:52 am
past few years. stockton, 71 percent of its 34 percent participants are not suspected a new firearm related crime. also touting sacramento program couch 44 percent of its 50 members had no new arrest, but it also didn't include the 17 original participants who dropped out arrested in the 1st 6 months. so will this actually work in new york? try me, discuss is retired chief deputy u. s. marshal matthew fog. thank you so much for joining me. good to be with you. so, what do you think of this idea is actually paying a criminal to commit a crime? the solution to the problems we're seeing in the streets today, where you got to do something and it seems like it's working. i mean, when you're on the, on the surface i, what is that what i'm seeing, that it appears to be some results when you look at california from the other states that is trying it. i think they also need the iraqi back on this one growth
2:53 am
. you know, get simply just on people in depth because they got drugs. i mean, i think that the left that we take the profit out of it that's going to have made to impact when it's the same way. but if you can come up with something for right now, that is, is that miss ring and some of these guy that the like they have by and maybe that will help the stock, some of the murders and some of the assault when people knew that they couldn't go to sleep in my wrong and stuff like that. so that seems to be like if it's doing something i do appreciate i do like the idea of mentorships. i think these are these folks definitely. i think anybody this in trouble always can use a good influence in their life, but then also to look at this respective how this is officer. so i mean, so many times, one of the least paid public and public servants in government is usually a police officer. sadly enough. how do you think they feel about if we've got all this money to pay criminals? what about the, the fact that we're not funding our police officers,
2:54 am
so we're now back or taking funds away for a lot of these different department? well, the bottom line is, what's the amount of people we built? one of the largest prison industrial complex is that the world is the thing. so the reality of it, we don't need a lot of police are just simply going to lock in people up and so on. and then becomes like a becomes complex and everybody is making money on it. lawyers, police 3rd by so you don't need as many please if you are able to give these people and they would give them job training available. things that mentorship or is they what has happened when we built that industrial complex. we took a lot of probably about a home. we graded a lot these paradigms that we see today. so i think you don't need as many police officers, i think less police and getting the job done. we can do that. but the reality is that there's more drug, this guy got guys, you're going to have a problem. you know, we got so many guys on the street now. i think every woman's voice out may have
2:55 am
a gun surplus. so you got really good that the my go was always the say put back programs just money into the street. the battles guy got the fruit and i'm tell you people will bring those guns. but that's the way as you do actual by the guns away, which i understand that. but those are your encourage you more, more actual gun legislation, gun side with that actually solve the problem or would we still see the bad guy with a gun and all we're doing is taking those guys out. good. how do you respond to that argument? the bottom line is again, this was prohibition. i mean like i said, it didn't work, but we saw that the balance was please, the law enforcement against an apple prohibition. it's the same way with drug prohibition. law enforcement don't need to be tracking down people using drugs. we need to be going out the people that are raping and doing the major things. instead of the lightweight stuff that we've got, a lot of people, marijuana and all of that police officers involved and all of that type of stuff.
2:56 am
so as you start the racket down on this whole prohibition thing and start to look at what can we do to change these neighborhoods? and that's what these men into, you know, but allow them to be out there with their families and bring mentors. and i think you'll start to see a different, well as i'm all for legalization of drugs, as long as we make sure that we cut the drugs off the streets at 1st sight and the source of them. i'm all for that. and 9 times 10 you find it's not coming straight from us. always a great to talk to joining me. and that's all the time we ever say show, but i promise this is a conversation which we need to continue to follow the answer at got in huge team and and for they showed more download the fordable dot tv app for apple or, and device like always thanks for watching the news. what we've got to do is identify the threats that
2:57 am
we have. it's crazy foundation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very political time. time to sit down and talk one, make no borders under nationalities as emerged. we don't have authority. we go to the back scene, the whole world needs to take action and be ready. not a joke. people are judge crisis who we can do better. we should be better. everyone is contributing each of their own way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenge is paid for
2:58 am
the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes it feel very proud that we are together in the good person, mr. moseley, with what we need to do the good to google. i want you to do i see you're going to show you so you didn't know where to put it in the is the not the best. what you will cover your 1st bill. i don't know if
2:59 am
3:00 am
the news headlines this hour here on a new video is emerged from i got the song capital showing the desperation of people fleeing the return of the title about the group brief, the media author, its power grabbed promising its seeking no revenge and i've got women take the street to defend their rights to switch to tile about pledging to keep for the tech to be within the limits of islam. on the program, we discussed the situation with the head of the country's largest media company to tell about trying to win hearts and long ways to go before we can say that receptive to women and television all to which in the fall, not kind of the european union admitted money and efforts to train the army were
