7:30 am
good gray, so now bring us the list, who were 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, general retired navy admiral for a deputy secretary of defense. we got lockheed martin, 1235 percent. how is that even possible?
7:31 am
100. 33000. 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 use wars, 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, 800000000 indirect more fight costs. 296000000000 to care for our american veterans
7:32 am
. 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 determine. 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 soldiers salary. so if that's not true, i make trying to bribe someone to fight. i don't know what is and then that have them turn around and kind of flee and as quickly as they did, but with $2.00 trillion dollars total of what this war is worth. what this war has cost us. that would be like paying $300000000.00 per day for 20 years. scotty, that is absent. and i think in time right out there where everybody's going, what were read 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's probably the most accurate numbers that were accomplish in the last
7:33 am
20 years. and why i think you saw this continued fighting happened within it, but wars are expensive. erin or 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 in 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, it's, it's going to be on, you know, with germany. they got a little bit of 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, 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? and we even continue to spend the money. and once again,
7:34 am
i think we're finding out the reason is 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 is because of that reason right there. cuz somebody somewhere is making a few dollars, like always thank you for bringing some light to this joy and discuss with you more . are we better comment, 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 are 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 to this country, how much we love our beloved military, 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 of all,
7:35 am
let me go ahead and say that. yeah, it does frustrate me. you know, i spent over 7 years in iraq has been over 2 and a half years and i was in kosovo pakistan. ukraine during high to be areas. so yeah, i see it now let me break down 2 things. however, if we're talking about military contractors in regards to those who are providing protection for protection on embassies or mobile security, you'll actually find that their day rate is cheaper than that of national 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 iraq is 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, 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 milles what's going
7:36 am
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 that they're going to sit on to make millions of dollars, basically advising and helping their body to are also gone. looking to rotate out into those more positions as well. so again, this is where they start putting themselves 1st and they start putting all the soldiers gigi elements in our national security laps. 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, 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 and
7:37 am
combat over there and you're going, why did i lose this life 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 the very beginning. and i 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 cpr operation irregular warfare. a symmetric warfare and special operations forces with the support of the intelligence communities, basically going on, putting together a t t packet. 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 wanted to continue to perpetuate this idea that we need to stay there and arm and build and defend and help 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
7:38 am
do the same thing. we saw the secretary and violet. great. got no father 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 tell all my better brothers and sisters who are out there and i brought back to my people who are drinking that american lag 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 the watches 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. and because we went in there and every single president, it came in a power continue to try and rubber stamp to put their name on things. and the reality was that what joe biden just did, he handed pianist and to china. china wants this for economic resource warfare. they're going to expose this as 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,
7:39 am
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. 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. while concerning is there more than just the rise of covey cases to blame wherever the report after the break? the
7:40 am
you know, when you go to deal with a sick day marathon of creativity ability, cultural festival, and the biggest variety is the competition for a few days. became a russian cultural capital. 28 categories. ahh from violence, piano to the parenting and data protection years. just throwing up over water. sure. you know if you could get some kind of a 3 or for them to be here. they filter when read an or content the delta games only take the very best of the best buy
7:41 am
choose me. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation, let it be an arms race is often very dramatic. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk. i was there was a simple blood test that could help identify whether you are suffering from long term effects of the coven, 1900 faction liquidity, new joint research by university of california, and 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. i do want to say i haven't had the full story. what
7:42 am
happens when cove 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 a long covert where patients experience lingering health problems. even when they have recovered from the virus, they range from fatigue, a loss of tastes or smell chest a non stop headaches, shortness of breath, and fever. but in these patients, 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 sometimes end up with so called long cove. it. in other words, they still have symptoms for more than 30 days. after their positive test, and among those who test positive for coven,
7:43 am
68 percent experience at least one symptom up to 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 positive covered 1900 t, as 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 or dismissed by health care providers or receive conflicting advice. by 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
7:44 am
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 infection. 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, scientists are optimistic if the blood test will be available within 6 months. for news views. hughes side have inger rti, i help later say nationwide. a nurse shortage. come as a result of the pandemic. as many nurses have chosen to switch careers after suffering burn out of 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
7:45 am
them actually to retire. so what does this mean for hospitals and the amount they can care for, for being considered a capacity to bring in doctor, joined abroad team medical doctor at washington pain center. thank you so much for joining me, dr. breski. thank you so much. always great talking to you later, this actor, 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 always enjoy taking care of patients, but now it's more challenging than ever. we always been appreciated, 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 patient's best id to really good,
7:46 am
excellent work with their care. and not only to look into the 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 the and when we're going to run our privacy doctors, you go to school for 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 with 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 mean they're going to be able to care for less patients? well, you're right to some extent, you know, there has to be a safety. we cannot overwhelm the system with run nurse nursing care for patients. well now you can do 6, or now you can do a that clearly is unsafe and the in the nurse and the hospital mentorship, we're not going to do that. and again, an anesthesiologist which, what we know, what safety factors are going beyond that. it becomes unsafe and we will never do that to a patient. so this is where we need to coordinate care,
7:47 am
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, cova numbers are up and that's what's causing these major runs for it. 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? 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 the case or not. i don't care about cases. i care about death. i mean people are sick, things like that. come at 19 and their own studies show this on the cdc, it's 99.9 percent recoverable. obviously, if you're all over $74.00,
7:48 am
is 94 percent recoverable. so we have to look at what we're actually doing or these patients are in the system. are they all related to code that possible? and again, the very question with these numbers, because the cdc has given us numbers that might not have been genuine, and counted suicides is coded motor vehicle licenses. cobit so we've got a little bit deeper and when i do my own personal research in terms ice, you care things. i guess they're not necessarily overwhelmed. they're champing to the capacity. they want to be at 30 percent. i choose are 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 your doctor, nebraska, this is the 2nd wave of code, the hitting, the united states also heading 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 way really hitting because we're hearing obviously the different variance are going,
7:49 am
are we still seeing at risk maybe of a different demographic or reduce still the very at risk the just got lucky in the 1st wave i think we're talking about. it's actually good news that actually you might catch it, but it's not legal or not as legal. so in other words, it's like it's like the cold or flu virus, haven't contagious. as legal is covered, 900 regional one. you know, you could catch it and it didn't have value, but they're finding out each one of these various, the viruses are less and less with respect to mortality or mobility the use. but you know, it's only less well dr. raska, always a pleasure to talk with you and thank you for actually bringing tonight. 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. mayers are actually back tracking from the to be defend the police narrative merit apply. jail has another idea. he would like to try to reduce
7:50 am
the crime in the streets of new york city through his advance piece 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 past few years. stockton, 71 percent of its 34 percent participants are not suspected a new firearm related crime. also touting sacramento program called 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 at chief deputy
7:51 am
u. s. marshal matthew fogg. thank you so much for joining me. will 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. well, you gotta do something and it seems like it's work. and i mean, when you're on the surface, i was there at lucas, but i'm seeing that it appears to be some results. when you look at california, some the other states that is frying, i think they also need the iraqi back when this whole one growth, you know, get simply just go on people in depth because they got drugs. i mean, i think that the less that we take the profit out of it that's going to have made to impact when it's the same way to deal with this. but if you can come up with something for right now, that is, is that miss ring and some of these guys are like they have by and maybe that will help to stop some of the murders. and some of the assaults when people knew that
7:52 am
they couldn't go to the police and so my rog and stuff like that. so that seems to be like 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 do you think 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 the money to pay criminals? what about the, the fact that we're not funding? our police officer said right now back or taking funds away for a lot of these different department? well the bottom line, the law was the amount of the 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 going to lock in people up and so on. and then become like a company to accomplish and everybody is making money on it. lawyers,
7:53 am
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, make training available. things that mentorship obvious thing. what has happened when we built that industrial complex? we took a lot of problems out 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 got you going to have a problem? you know, we got so many guys on the street now. i think every woman's voice, our man could have a gun surplus. so you got really good that the and my go was always the say good back programs just money into the street. the battles guy got the reason i'm tell you people will bring those guns. but that's the way as you do extra by the guns away, which i understand that. but those are your encourage you more, more actual gun legislation,
7:54 am
gun side with that actually solve the problem. or would we still see the bad guy with a gun and all were doing, taking those guns good. how do you respond to that argument? well, the bottom line is again, this was a prohibition. i mean, like i said, it didn't work for apple. all we thought it balanced with please the law enforcement again, the prohibition is the same way with drug prohibition law enforcement. i was 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. so 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 and, you know, but allow them to be out there with their families and bring mentors in. i think you'll start to see a different, well that's, i'm all for legalization of drugs as long as we make sure that we cut the drugs out the streets and 1st sites in the source of them. i'm all for that. and 9 times 10 you find it's not coming straight from us. always
7:55 am
a great to talk to joining me. and at that time we, i would say show, but i promise this is a conversation which we need to continue to follow the answer at. got it. and you have to be a and for the show and more download the portable dot tv app for apple or, and device like, always thanks for watching the you later. ah, ah, the expected upside of the pandemic kenya's experiencing. and elephant baby boom. 250. why does kenya have so many allison carves and how has the panoramic impacted people's lives? there's a wall of big long in a bunk, and the fact he end up killing himself. i don't live on a lease,
7:56 am
and then you go buy a car. well, and i will make a little was let him in the media roof, they get mad and i can say, lucky to me, mean it will because at that of the when a neighbor who did the they didn't even notice whether the equals to do this. but i know the company just wasn't going whatever it is. now we have just heard that it was a healthy alternative to figure out how do we trust tobacco companies with their message that these new products are actually going to reduce? are these, these are making the tobacco tours who
7:57 am
make no borders blind. to tease you as a merge, we don't have a therapy. we don't actually, the whole world leads to take action to be ready. people are judge, you know, crisis we can do better. we should be better. everyone is contributing each in our own way, but we also know that this crisis will not go on forever. the challenges for the response has been massive. so many good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we are together in so
7:58 am
what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy plantation, let it be an arms race is on often very dramatic development. only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successfully, very critical of time. time to sit down and talk the all new britain, mr. moseley, with what we need to do the good to google. i want you to do. i see you going to show you where you didn't know where to put it in the
7:59 am
is the mother molar. that's what you will cover financing for. net 1st bill. i don't know me yet. we still follow does not so much much not although a lot nobody me on there is a sucker and you say you got a bill in front of me personally, hon, which ah ah
8:00 am
ah, ah ah, you video damage from afghanistan capital showing the desperation of people to flee the returning taliban. that says the group brings the media after its power grab promising that it will not be seeking revenge. women take for the streets to defend the rights rece the taliban is pledging to keep protected though within the limits of his law. we discussed the situation with the head of the country's largest media company, itala on a trying to win hearts and minds long ways to go before we can say, to better receptive to women on television or to equal opportunity for nascar. the taliban commander who gave victory speech from campbell's presidential palace was in fact to form a long time resident upon panama bay 28 and 3.
