8:30 pm
so amazon looks like monopoly trade, who i come in, boy makes money like monopoly behaves like monopoly, like amazon essentially controlled the market place. it's not really a market as a private arena where a single company controls the distribution of daily products. and the infrastructure of our economy is the, according to amazon. ah, we keep hearing about the americans who are still not sure about whether or not they will actually be rescued while we for some reason, don't know the exact number. first on the taliban control country. we do know there are more than 20 students and their parents from the case on a village valley union school district amongst them will tell you why they weren't going to stay in the 1st place and what we know about their current situation in out of australia, and i lockdown protesters, clashed with police as the limits being placed by the government continue to expand
8:31 pm
upon the name of public health curfew after 9 pm exercise, limited to one hour, giving police the right to feel entire apartment buildings are just a few of the latest wave of restrictions in place when the government is killing dogs and not because they have cove it. but out of fear that people will come rescue them. who might have coven? has the government gone too far? we will discuss with our expert and sidney. here in america, we continue to fight child a sex trafficking, but the challenge can be really hard when 44 states have a law thing one form is legal. we're going to give you the details. i'm sorry now here's an all of the stores and more on today's news edition of new use right here on our t america. let's get started. ah, large crowds taken to the streets of australia. freedom,
8:32 pm
i just really is continuing to try and apply the 0. cobit approach invited to cover 1900 virus and its variance. new rules place restrictions on just about every element of daily life. and the government is given the authorities, the ability to enforce them. now as you can imagine, this is not being taken well by the people of australia. as classes of law enforcement have at times become violent. here's a look no matter how hard we work and no matter if 99 percent of people are doing the right thing. there's an element of deals that nobody can control. ah why we comply kicks are still the best. why we can look forward to freedom ease by making sure that we get vaccinated done, and you
8:33 pm
can just open up, let it rip. then we will have a massive problem. ah, you have to tell them and it looks like they already have a massive problem on their hands, but this is cases continue to grow despite these very strict restrictions along with the link of time this pandemic has lasted, it seems a 0, a co policy. there is no longer tenable now currently, australia still has under $1000.00 positive cases, being reported in the entire country and under $1000.00 deaths for the entire pandemic. from the very beginning, almost a year and a half ago to join me now discusses professor rayna mcentire,
8:34 pm
who has the bio security program at the kirby institute of the university of new south wales in sydney, australia. thing to say the vast majority of its trail and just going along with the government restrictions and doing what they do. it's a very small minority that of protest. and having said that, the protest in melbourne, which is the footage that he showed the victorian police said that that was the most violent protest, the same in a very long time. and i think it reflects that the impact on people's livelihoods and jobs. a lot of people in kind of the economy and customer facing roles, the entertainment and restaurant industry that tries not been able to work. and that hasn't been adequate financial support for those people from the government to go along with the restriction. so people are frustrated, but that does not represent the majority of astray, ma'am,
8:35 pm
was just trying to actually appreciate the logical coven 0. busy environment we've enjoyed, we've been able to leverage fraley like other countries have not. and 2 things we want to do for much of the pandemic. so people do have an expectation that self and kept safe as well. but i know you saw the story professor mcentire over the week and they came out where the government inhumanely basically order the shooting of dogs in a rescue. not because the dogs were sick, but because people might actually come get them. and that would be considered a gathering or cover could spread. do you feel like the governance go into foreign case, especially when you're shooting and humanely animals? so i think that was a really terrible story and a terrible thing to do. i agree that that wasn't on the federal government though, that was a decision made by the local local council to manage that particular
8:36 pm
animal shelter. and they did it because they didn't want people coming into the town from outside. and we've got a problem in a trailer with some of the small towns in remote and regional areas, which is either no hospital or the next health services a long distance away. and we're already saying. busy some of the remote country hospitals. busy really overloaded and unable to take transfers from people who are critically ill in small town. so you know, i think that's why they did it, but i think it was the wrong thing to do. absolutely. you know, they could have safely arrange for those dogs to be rescued olive branch back to the virus because here in america we are having a real issue with the break through cases 100000. and actually i would like to give you the exact number, but the cdc last spring stopped counting those and they also stop counting the ones that are going to hospice. so i cannot give you accurate numbers. i hate to do that as a journalist. are you having the same issue? are you seeing the same things with the various breakthrough cases within australia
8:37 pm
and you just had a cdc here came out and actually said the effectiveness have fallen with the delta variant. do you think, you know, are you seeing that kind of push back that certain sort of breakthrough, but also do you think you're going to see in america? they're suggesting another round of vaccines you're getting this push back on the racial round. do you think australia is going to be lining up quickly to get the 3rd dose? so the 1st issue, the breakthrough, we started back the program much later than the you it. so the us started back in december, where was this trailer really started at the end of february, beginning of march and population vaccination to even longer to get started. that was the initial high risk group. so the winning probably occurs about 6 months after the 1st, particularly with the 5 are not so much with them or not from what with a. and it may be just a question of how the space, a 2 doses, maybe the 3 weeks is too short. they certainly data from research that shows that
8:38 pm
it is a 6 to 8 weeks to get a better response in a longer response. so we don't, we haven't got enough data yet to say will. so i know that boosters give you a really strong strong compared to the 2nd. so and many back things do have a tradeoff problem for me, angel like to be and some of the childhood back things we give, such as the area fitness. so it may end up at the primary schedule for these vaccines ends up being 3, but it's still early days. and what kind of learning is not a large amount of vaccine resistance in australia. they certainly hesitancy, but the percentage of people who are absolute vaccine refuse as is quite low in australia. we have quite a different culture. most people up pretty bad things and people are certainly rushing out to get back tonight at now because they're afraid with the outbreak
8:39 pm
that were happening while professor i want to thank you for joining us and like you said, we're still learning on this and these other variants they say are coming down the line would be interesting to see how well the vaccines protect us again. think for all of our hope. we hope we can go back to life as normal as possible. thank you so much for chatting with us. it's a pleasure you are just recently signed into law a bill raising the age of marriage, consent to 18. i'm sorry, that's kind of sounds odd state like new york. we're just now be raising its minimum age. the same age. one can vote or join the military. i mean, it's 2021. now, sadly, there are still $44.00 other states in the us, which allow child marriages to happen with most only requiring possibly even just parents consent, regardless of age. now we're not just talking about one or 2 is approximately 40 children are married daily. in the united states. estimates of almost $300000.00 under the age of 18, were legally married in between 202-2018 with the highest per capita mer,
8:40 pm
just happening in arkansas, idaho, nevada, and oklahoma. now i will say this, the legal age is 17 and 10 of those states. so doesn't make me feel too comfortable, though. disgust is we're joined by lynch of the alliance to end human trafficking. lynn. i tell you 2021. i am a mother of a 13 year old girl. i am appalled. this is happening in the usa, and it makes me sad and sick to think about the total involved. how is this legal and today's age? first i want to start with thanking you, study and r t for covering this very crucial and critical issue. you know, you just hit the nail on the head. most people don't believe this is happening in the united states. they don't understand. they think it's in some other countries in some far off places. we recently, we only have 6 state. we recently only got rhode island and we've just got your, your only to sit. how can this be when you are a legal adult?
8:41 pm
you can't, can't hire a lawyer until you're lead across the country. he's no exception. a legal adult. when you make this decision, not dare say whatever stature reading they're much higher, he's under reported. and it's a use of force under age with my. what does that mean? you would trafficking, and that's what this is. this is a crime. i think this is a division of sex trafficking. people don't talk about it, but how can i justify it? not be. and yet, there is some justification besides just, we didn't know about it. what is the justification of this being that is being allowed right now? what, why can people say this is an okay thing to happen in modern day society? you have different, different ideas people, 1st of all, culturally, many people get married at the age of 141516 religious reasons, young marriages, but also and something we don't really talk about a lot 17, you know,
8:42 pm
we've heard in the past a lot of girls got married maybe 1617. again, it's under the legal age for anything else. and what does that mean that we're not talking about? we know that the person marrying is usually much older, will use a girl as an example. does happened to boys, but more often with girls and what is that, that human traffic that a mother can sign off on give her 40 year old daughter. we're finding that this is a form of human trafficking that child becomes sex traffic. so we have to take all these different considerations in, but we all have to rally together. we understand what's going on here. we understand all too unchained at last, or is the best. it is the only organization in the united states. it is a partner of lind warriors, they have a map of the entire united states, you hit on your state, it will give you all the stat, all the laws, everything but society, why is it taking so long to get 6 states?
8:43 pm
this isn't going on for years. we have to come together and discuss the ramifications of a girl getting married. you know, 12 or 16 goes on there. and as you point out, lynn is also boys. but real quick, before i let you go, you mentioned this is state by state issue. but guess what? i'm question, why is it this a federal issue? marriage is recognized across state lines. why is this not something that congress is taking it of anything that they're debating all of the, just the rip route that they go through. this is something that would actually make a difference if they would pick up this bill and federally make it a legal. why aren't they even talking about it on the hill? they refuse scotty, they want it to go state by state. everybody's busy. everybody's crazed on the hill, they've kind of washed their hands in my opinion of this. they shoved it back to the states. it's very difficult. we have a great organization, all of us across the country, advocating for this. we have a lot of child abroad survivors and by the way, child bride is not more on this thing as a child. right?
8:44 pm
these are hoarse marriages. it's a human trafficking. we are forcing, we're trying to get everybody on the help. they're all dispatched right now, doing everything else, they do not want to hear about this. they do not want to hear about human trafficking or sexual exploitation. this is at the bottom of the barrel right. then we will make sure we link your website on onto the story. thank you so much for joining us on this. and we will continue to follow up on that. when we return a california high school group amongst those americans traffic and we ask, why have they not been made a priority by the us government to be rescued after the break? the news
8:45 pm
the news? i will i will americans love buying homes. ah, the sort of fundamental part of how our political leadership and our country at large understood the bargain. you get a whole and then you know, rebel right, as the things you don't revolt if you have a stake in the system. be really interesting to dial back and think about the longer,
8:46 pm
deeper history of what housings meant in the united states. not just that old question of the american dream, but the bigger question of who the dream has been for the now related bullock in a stand we're more than 70000 people have been evacuated, talented control of the african capital. but wednesday us secretary of state antony blink and said as many as 1500 us citizens may remain afghanistan, we been in direct contact with approximately 500 additional americans. and provided specific instructions on how to get to the airport safely for the remaining roughly 1000 contacts that we had who may be americans seeking to leave afghanistan. we're aggressively reaching out to them multiple times a day through multiple channels of communication, phone, email,
8:47 pm
text messaging. and while the pace of evacuations has picked up in recent days, it's still a scramble. are your guys, do you have has more from couple situation at the airport is what we expected it to be hectic. we expected it to be chaotic. what we didn't expect is you know how, how wide these, these chaos is it's. it's all over the airport. the air field is lifted with bullet casings with, with codes of people, shoes as they stab be did earlier to get abroad. those are those aircraft even to click on to add crops. well, you know, all of it's been left behind and there's, there's lisa everywhere. there's, there's flashback, grenade used, flashbanc, grenades, tear gas canisters like all over the over the ash script, as well as people's clothes heads got trapped. and i must remark on the bob why it
8:48 pm
is absolutely everywhere. this is how nato soldiers have presumably decided to keep people away. but why need is a need as high as the very, very dense and simply, you know, there's, there's no way to cross it. and given the desperation of people here, some of the people here that the to get out, that is the only thing keeping the matter. also while there we heard ceaseless shooting, it was odyssey was endless. every, every 10 minutes, 10 minutes wouldn't pass without gun shots either inside the airport. so this is american nato troops firing boarding salts, presumably, to waterway people who tried to climb over. the fed said to take a short cut into the airport. then we had the taliban outside that the main jackport at the main drive into the, into the air. both of the terminals. them also foreign warning shots, much less controlled fashion. so when we were driving out of the apple, we had
8:49 pm
a taliban inside the running and foreign warning shots as a hi and him, it's a miracle. no one was heard, live a little ways away from the airport. we saw blood guy and a lot of lot of people gathered, as i said, the situation is incredibly hectic. we. we would like to show you pictures from the airport. unfortunately, we are unable to do so because it could jeopardize not only of the security of the, the nato troops and the civilians that are inside the airport, but also future evacuation. because the, the russian side, it was very difficult. securing this evacuation for russian aircraft arrived today was a deal with the united states whereby the who they who control the board let these russian aircraft land to evacuate russian passport holders. is this one of the conditions the americans had was new filming in the airport because obviously taliban is all around the airport. the every single nato aircraft. it's taking off
8:50 pm
american aircraft, looted, but civilians with american citizens, europeans troops. they're all down the sides of taliban guns. the taliban wanted to cause trouble, they very well could. well, as you can see, chaos isn't suing and i guessed, and there's also a group of california students and parents remain stranded overseas. now while there are poorly had a ticket out, none of them were able to get to the airport in time. ours course on top street has been put on the story and we continue to follow it, but more has more on their current situation. at least 20 students and 16 parents from a school in san diego remain in afghanistan after a summer trip abroad. now lawmakers say they're working to get them and thousands of others out of afghanistan, horrifying images last week at the cobble international airport. as a tele bon was empower people wanted out, but it wasn't just local from afghanistan trying to escape. there were also many americans attempting to fly home. my most recent communication from
8:51 pm
d o. d. this morning was that they've identified a large number of americans were just time eric and right now who had races and need to get out. and while they're americans, they don't need to be so. but the question is how to get them to the airport. some of those americans include a group of students and parents who took the summer vacation overseas. there are reportedly at least 20 students from the alcohol school district in eastern san diego and some 16 parents along with them trapped in afghanistan. congressman darrell isis who represents a district said in a tweet that he's working diligently to determine the best ways to help those trap returned home safely. he went on to say that he won't stop until we have answers an action according to the alcohol valley school board. president students and their parents had already bought airfare and were planning to leave afghanistan. however, they were unable to get to the airport. but up democrat on the house intelligence committee says that law makers are starting to examine the flaws in the u. s. departure from afghanistan. and adam shift says he's skeptical the by an
8:52 pm
administration can get all americans in afghanistan evacuated by the august 31st deadline of moving people to the airport and the limited number of work arounds. it's hard for me to see that being fully complete by the end of the month. and i'm certainly of the view that we maintain military presence as long as it's necessary to get all us persons out and to meet our moral and ethical obligation to our african partners. she said he also fears the possibility of a terrorist attack against us troops and others at the airport and cobble now the biggest concern for the whole valley school district is the taliban. closing the airport, according to the us military, over the weekend, soldiers were forced to find alternate roads to the airport. with threats from isis k are 40 and 40 feet shoes, and hot suites r t. i told you about the c. i a director who came in and out of afghanistan, but yesterday,
8:53 pm
to members of congress actually were able to fly in for their own and see what was going on. you had michigan republican members of peter right there. and massachusetts democrat represent assess molten both who sit on military oversight committees, able to come in, definitely made the present angry was white house state department, but they did it anyways. i want to bring a net. ryan, who had ceo of american majority to get his opinion on why did to members of congress actually fly in. and is this actually an attachment to the lack of trust they have in the information that they're getting from the white house as well as from their own intelligence reports. ned, thanks for joining me. yeah, no, absolutely, scott, of course it is. they don't trust, they don't trust us. whitehouse, they don't trust jen pataki to give actual real true the what's going on the deal, the pentagon, they want to go see for themselves. i think what was actually taking place on the ground. 7080 percent of americans wanted to see us out of afghanistan. there was no argument on that front at all, but to see how badly this withdrawal has gone. and how botched has been. i mean,
8:54 pm
i'm seeing reports today that by august 31st there still will probably be thousands of americans still stranded and they are stranded in afghanistan after we pull out . what are we going to do then? and i'm concerned that with the obviously isis, al qaeda being released from these prisons on the move and on the loose and afghan, a stand that we could see some really problematic things take place with those americans. that quite frankly, had been stranded and a very callous and cavalier way by the binding ministration. we weren't here nonstop calls about his mental capacity about how he has endangered thousands of not tens of thousands of american lives from members of his own party. and yet, i don't hear really anything from the democratic party calling out biden, for how badly this whole situation has gone. and quite frankly, we're not done yet. i think we are still not out of the woods yet in regards to a lot of these american wives. well, and ned, the reason you had
8:55 pm
a republican and democrat go together, they came back with the same conclusion. august 31st isn't going to happen. there's more chaos going on in the streets so we can't get americans out again. what happens because the taliban is not going to move on august 31st. how does america react when we still have billions 20 kids we just reported are still over there. how does american react, what are we prepared to do to get our people out of that area? well, i think scott was gonna have to happen after august 31st, and i hate to see this app. and we're gonna have to probably send in more forces to actually try and fix this problem to get all of these americans out safely, including the school kids, including those that have, have been stranded, which is again going to make an even messier situation. i mean, scotty, this is a complete and utter disaster as it now stands. but i'm looking even at the fact that cost us to trillion up to this point. and we now know based off the interest payment by the time this is all said and done, this is going to be over $6.00 trillion dollars for this idiotic nation building
8:56 pm
attempt in afghanistan. that has now been further botched with this absolutely disastrous withdrawal. so i'm afraid we're going to have some more people in to actually get people out. but to our embarrassment, scotty watching what british special forces are doing, leaving the airport to go into cobble to get their citizens out. as we sit on our hands, i think from commands from higher up is, is absolutely shameful for our military to be doing this. but i know they're actually getting orders from a pie to our other shame. it is american people. well, it's really scary times olivia, because i said we're dealing with terrorists here, terrorist and supposedly this white house trust. and they asked for time and time again, favors from net. thank you for giving your insight. we'll continue the story with you. now the white house said there's only about $1500.00 americans still left over afghanistan. there's 20 students are included in that. we're going to continue to follow the story until they come home and they're safe here in america. i can promise you that because that's what we do on the shows. we don't just tell you the
8:57 pm
story, we follow up on it because that's all that we have to show. but i promise you in the meantime, for me on twitter at study and huge use the hash tag team and vh. we're going to talk about these topics as well as other give us your suggestions. i promise you the team and the age continues to read everything that you get. and for this show and more make sure that you download the portable dot tv app for your app or android device. it's very programming on rti america as we continue to follow events not only here at home, around the world. like always thanks for watching as we continue to give you the information that you should make your own opinion. that's the best way to do it later. ah, join me every thursday. i'm 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
