2:30 am
we would not have this situation we do have in kosovo, mentor, and service. so i think that the fact that nato has not been capable of managing the situation which he created. so it is definitely not a good idea to have nato forces, again, on the visible border between central serbia and co, civil and here. but then the western organizations have shown that they have fail totally failed in the balcony. and they should a nation state over and probably maybe let the surgeons and albanians and countries from that region to the situation between themselves. first, you know, there's more and has potential stand off online right now at auto dot com. lots of your wednesday, both headlines still there. come here on this channel a busy day already at half past 9 in the morning. here at moscow we are back at the top of the hour. ah.
2:31 am
when our show the wrong, when all just don't the room. yes to see out the same because the after an engagement equals the trail. when so many find themselves, well, the part we choose to look for common ground the, who's the disaster and dana saying under the microscope today as the chairman of the joint chiefs general loc, millie and defense, secretary lloyd austin, big the senate committee and they faced some tough questions on both sides of the aisle and us marine officer who's ran plastic military leaders over afghanistan is
2:32 am
now reportedly in jail. we'll discuss it off with our panel. the president biden claims, his multi trillion dollar build back better plan, actually costs nothing. and you've heard the president proclaimed to the rich that they need to pay their fair share of taxes biden. and his wife plant certain income in a place that would prevent it from paying their fair share. we'll get the 360 view with their political panel. i'd be more for again, prescribing they'll use on today's edition of news news use right here on our see america. ah, well, it was promised to be a fiery intent hearing on capitol hill and it did not disappoint today. general mark, milly, secretary of defense, lloyd austin, and general frank mckenzie testified before the senate on the disastrous withdrawal from afghanistan. while the 3 dated made. many errors were made. they also testified that they gave president joe biden many options to keep the mission from
2:33 am
getting out of control. barren from zack shows us some of the highlights from today's hearing. i am disappointed, but the statements of all witnesses were not sensitive committee until late last evening, giving center to the staff very little time to review the senate armed services sharing. right out of the gate, was off to a bumpy start. with the 3 men testifying general mark, milly, secretary of austin and general frank mckenzie, angering senators on both sides. were there lack of urgency on delivering testimony and writing cause it was a largest error, error error lives conducted and us history. and it was executed in 17 days. was it perfect? of course not all 3 men admitted mistakes were made, but the circumstances were ones the united states hasn't seen before. but senators, no matter their party bought her the meeting into a grill session. we have no presence any longer, an afghan,
2:34 am
a stand. there were hundreds of american, not just americans, generally civilians you left behind against the president, explicit commitment not to leave until all american citizens were out and to safety . that is not what happened. the 3 man, reluctant to answer some questions in regards to president joe biden statement, the president around the same time said quote ok, it was gone from the canister and told the american people that was that true or not true without kind of on from f can a stand in mid august. true or not true? ok is still enough fantasy and they were there in mid august. they have been severely disrupted in a treated over many, many years. some questions received no answer. so we know where the president, the former president, again, his dad is today and how much money took with him. with any idea i, at the side of sexual austin, you have any idea. i think that he may be, and you
2:35 am
a sen. i'm not certain of that. the last report that i had, but in regard to staying in f ganna stan passed the august 31st deadline. the 3 men all say they advised president joe biden to stay in the region. the questions of who knew what and when, along with what lessons learned, eric all receiving vague answer families. but one question from virginia, senator tim taine had a solid respond. other words, we thought we knew what africans wanted, what they feared and what they would fight for. but was our belief, the well intentioned, incredibly naive. we can't get one 3rd of americans to take a co backseat or accept the results of a presidential election. do we really think we can transform the culture of another nation for new use use or i'm faren, france. i obvious. alright, joining me now to discuss today's hearings, d watkins,
2:36 am
editor at large for salon and professor at the university of baltimore, andrew berquist, who is a former counterterrorism officer and host of this is my show with ju berquist. gentlemen, welcome to both of you. all right, drew, let's start with you. did things go as you had expected? they would go today. i mean with both sides of the i'll ask you some tough questions and getting answers and sometimes not getting answers. yeah, i mean like, well 1st of all, thanks for have miss davis. great to be here. i think these things always go this way. i will say this. there are some questions that surprise me out of the left. that was good to hear that actually were a little bit more more difficult than i anticipated. but what the reality of these hearings, these tests these, these, these, these situations always prove, just to be political grandstanding, nothing of ever really. of course, people get their talking points out there and then, and then they move on from there. and there's really no repercussions or anything that comes from the what you make of it. all. i really, really,
2:37 am
really, truly believe that we need to see the right and the left come together on issues that matter. like we need to. and i can agree with true, there's always a lot of political grandstanding going on and i hope and pray for the day. we can move past that. but we need both sides asking questions and, and then when we wrong, because we can't do that simple things like that. they will never move forward. where do we all deserve to? all right, i want you both to watch this because to me, this is the headline that came out of today's hearings. this is joe biden, 1st with george stephanopoulos on a b, c after the pull out. so no, no, until your military advisors are not, you know, we should just keep 2500 troops. it's been a stable situation for the last several years. we can do that. we can continue to do that. no, no one said that can be that i can recall. well, there's a big problem with that. here's general kenneth mackenzie today,
2:38 am
the head of us central command watch. again, i won't share my personal recommendation of the present, but i will give you my honest opinion and my honest opinion and view shaped my recommendation. i recommended that we maintain 2500 troops in afghanistan and general milly then was asked next. and he also agreed with that assessment. so de either joe biden is a liar, or he is losing his mind, or maybe both, i don't know, but he was not being honest and forthcoming with george stephanopoulos and the american people during that interview where he denied that his, his people told them to keep a force there to be a question for me as well. the 1st message, acknowledge is already politicians double talk in see one thing to you and say something go to a different person. i'm not going to dispute that at off. the big problem is,
2:39 am
what are we going to do moving forward, whereas the plan to fix the things that we attempted to do. and basically that's the conversation i'm trying to have. we're gonna talk about joe, by saying one thing. and if there's something that you know, we could do the same thing, but pretty much every principle in history, but where the ads will answer that one of the solution how, how do we move forward? well, drill. what i'd like to see is getting the remaining americans and our allies the heck out of afghanistan, because the worst thing worse than lying or losing his mind is the fact that joe biden went back on his word and left americans in afghanistan. and there's and that there's many of them still there. yeah, absolutely. there are, i mean this, look, this was, i agree with be and saying this is, there's issues that we need to find that we can come together on the poor withdraw from afghanistan should be one of those issues. this is clearly debacle. we have
2:40 am
americans left behind. we don't by the way, as a matter of policy, leave people behind. i never did. we never did a teammate. we've got americans that are left behind there. we've got to ask in partners in our lives that are left behind, that i hear horrible stories, but some of which are no longer with us because of how this went down. thankfully we got to come out, but this has been an absolute disaster from top to bottom. right. you guys may have seen along the many, many, many other people. the viral video from maureen lieutenant colonel stuart sheller, who blasted the way the withdrawal from afghanistan was carried out. he demanded accountability from his superiors and those responsible. well, there's an update to that story, and ortiz more ed got the guys d. m has the report left tenant, colonel stuart, shall a junior is currently in pre trial confinement. the time date and location of the proceedings have not been determined less tenant kennel shallow will be afforded. oh, due process. bo missed the shallow has proved to be very divisive. people are
2:41 am
people a polarized, there are those who agree with him with everything that he said, but at the same time do believe that he should have said them in the capacity that he was in. and that he's a senior officer in the united states marine corps. what mr. sheila did is he came out and he violated will matter of protocols and codes of the united states military to criticize his superior offices, which is something that is looked down upon. people are upset because they're senior leaders, let them down, and none of them are raising their hands and accepting accountability are saying we mess this up. i'm not saying we've got to be in the in afghanistan forever, but i am saying, did any of you throw your rank on the table and say, hey, it's a bad idea to evacuate? barger airfield, the strategic barriers before we evacuate everyone. i am submitting charges against general mckenzie for his bad assumptions. now because i'm vindictive,
2:42 am
but because the senior leaders need to be help counsel the same standard as us. the thing with the united states military is it is forbidden for servicemen to come out and the publicly criticize their superior offices. if they have a grievance, they have to follow the proper channels. so they have to approve just the piri office and tell them what the problem is. his family have also come forward and they have said that they support their courageous sub on sunday is asked the questions that everybody was asking themselves below to sketch to speak out loud. he was asking for accountability. in fact, i think he even asked for an apology that we made mistakes, but they couldn't do that, which is mind blowing. more than that, mister shelley says that he will fall charges against general mackenzie, the united states marine corps, as well as the head of us central command. he says he will fall 13 charges that he
2:43 am
was relieved of duty. he had did his resignation. but due to the bureaucratic process, the resignation still take effect immediately so he will most likely be to be facing military charges. all right, so, so shell, or release several videos, even after he was told by superiors to stop posting them true. don't you have to follow orders? i mean, if he's still active duty and he's ordered to stop doing something like posting on social media, doesn't he have to stop? yeah, well look, i mean this, this is obviously it's, it's cut and dry and also complicated. all same time, right? i mean, we've always had our deployed over 30 times and we've never had leadership on any level. listen to us in the intel community or in the military community. so you understand why he's doing you understand why he's frustrated and he's right that they were wrong. but he did break protocol here and there are rules. and when you
2:44 am
break rules, there are unfortunately consequences. so i think that he's courageous for saying what needs to be say, and everyone needs to be held accountable with leadership and people who break the rules at their level. all right, so d, i mean, is sure to be held accountable, should he be in jail awaiting some kind of proceeding back and forth for a long time. stephen, if you remember, anything about me is the game of the game. you know what you signed up for? if you're going to step out there and say something to do something that consequences, that a consequences. and we know this before we do things. if i have a problem with the person that i'm working with, any editor or whatever, i'm probably gonna let him have in person. i'm not like, i'm not on any type of guy, i'm more of a direct kind of guy. but i know the consequences. i know i could lose whatever opportunity in front of me and it just is what it is, i believe in justice. sometimes believing and justice means that you get thrown
2:45 am
into slammer and this is about it. i'll tell you in the military, you really don't have the same right, that you might have it at your place of employment. so it's, it's a whole different ball game. now, republican senator tom cotton asked general mili if he would resign over this whole fiasco. and he was defiant and saying no, so drew, you know, talk about holding people accountable. the the marine now is, is being held accountable for disobeying orders. and he's in jail, reportedly. first of all, should millie and the others resign. should someone resign? no one's been held accountable and i don't think anybody's going to be held accountable. what's what, how could that happen? yeah, look this to me. whether it's him or you said somebody, somebody has got to be held accountable for this. there's got to be someone who goes down, and frankly, there's not going to be enough to do because remember, this is the biggest international blunder of our lifetime. it's not our life down
2:46 am
at least a century. this was horribly done and could have been done. so definitely, and whether someone else would have done, it definitely doesn't matter. this was what was done. this was how it was done so many to be held accountable. and what we're doing, and we've seen over the last several years as people in the position of power are never held accountable and we are sending a horrible precedent so. so something needs to happen, but i fear that it's not. so d is, is this, this maureen and social media, the only one is going to be held accountable? absolutely, and that's how to do these things. the people at the top, you know, i really have accountable. and that's kind of like the key code that if countries you make enough money, you have enough, you get to a certain level, you can get the skate on a lot of things that the regular everyday guys can gain on. yeah, well it's really a shame, especially when we see what the taliban is resorting to an afghanistan again with the public hangings and the cutting off of hands and reportedly of course and, and the way they're treating women separating them and all that kind of stuff. it's
2:47 am
back to the back to the old ways. gentlemen, thank you both so much. i really appreciate it. president biden promises to make them pay them. being americans who don't pay their fair share of taxes, but what about the half a $1000000.00 that he in the 1st lady may? oh, that's the me one. make no, certainly no borders and the blind to nationalities as emerge. we don't have authority. we don't, the whole world needs to take action and be ready people are judge, you know. 2 crisis we can do
2:48 am
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 the response has been massive. so me, good people are helping us. it makes us feel very proud that we need together in better god. oh, federal research. so there you go back. oh, heck, no. refrigeration came. well look at the rest, the 7 years. what kind of report the
2:49 am
and welcome back to news views use. i'm steve goldberg, filling in for scottsdale use today. did you happen to catch jo biden's tweet the other day in it? he claims that his bill back better agenda cost 0 dollars. that's right, 0 and it adds 0 dollars. so the national debt, and he was ripped forward in some circles among those calling them out for his outrageous claim. republican congresswoman mary miller, of illinois, who tweeted simply this is ally, joining us now for the $360.00 view on this. and so much more is dead. ryan, the ceo of american majority, and former presidential writer for george w bush and former georgia state representative ladon b jones. so glad to have both of you here. let me $3.00 trillion
2:50 am
dollars, and that's not even all of it. another one and a half trillion dollar package as well. and the price tags could go higher yet. the president says it costs nothing. that nothing. how was that possible? explain that math ned, because i missed out on that. and in high school and, and elementary school, it's simply impossible. steve, at some point, 3.5 trillion cost 3.5 trillion. no, no matter how many loopholes you close. as he talked about in this tree, which i thought was ironic, steve is what hearing word that he might have evaded about half a 1000000 in taxes and that which he said it won't cost us anything or anything to the national debt. he talked about, we're going to shut loopholes on those evading taxes. you kind of get that. yeah, we're, we're going to go to that, but they all say it to this, steve, is this, we're now living in a world in which democrats are trying to tell us 2 plus 2 equals 5. well, sometimes equals 3, and now they're trying to tell 3.5 trillion won't cost us anything. that's insane.
2:51 am
it's absurd. it feels like we're living in a simulation. the most charitable estimate that i've seen on this, it'll actually add a trillion or 2 trillion dollars to the national debt. and some are actually saying 3.5 trillion is going to actually cost us a lot more. you tack on the $1.00 infrastructure bill, which is gateway to the green new deal. you're talking about at least $4.00 trillion dollars in spending. that quite frankly, the only way you're going to pay for this is dr. tony and taxes. and i'm pretty sure this non of a tax base steve to actually come anywhere near covering that $4.00 trillion dollars. the never is. there never is ladon what, what, what was going through biden's mind? and how did his staff let that tweet go out? and stay out long enough for it to be critique. now, i am like some of those moderate democrats in this 24 hour news cycle, what you say matters, right? and so the communication team probably missed this one. and what should happen done is that they plan all the great benefit that people want to know. what have you
2:52 am
done for me? if i'm spending this money, if we have the country will spend a certain amount of money, the ticket doesn't matter as much as the benefit is an investment into america, which, which by this bill is supposed to be an investment into america making a better. it was miss that, but now we need to get past the talking point to get past the tweet and talk about how does this really improves america. we are coming out of an economy and out of a panoramic. that is just really operating strange and we have to make a debt to make up for what we've done in the past. and by bill does that, what, here's the difference and a republican no matter how big the bill, what are the republicans will be step in line. where here we see some democratic pushing back and saying, wait a minute, let's make sure we're doing the right thing before we move forward. and you got to respect that. well, historically speaking at these recent history, republicans do not stay together. it's democrats who traditionally stay together, but now you have the progress of invading the party and wreaking havoc,
2:53 am
and we'll see how that plays out. but i want you guys to watch this watch this to try to make people pay something. they don't know. just say hey, step up, step up and pay like everybody else does look. i really mean this is my whole career. i come from the know the corporate state of america. i just think it's about just paying your fair share for lord sake. you know, it makes me, it makes me laugh because this is a guy who's been in the senate for decades and decades and decades and decades and has written the tax code and has lived with the tax code. it has never objected to the tax code. in fact, the problem is it turns out that biden, as net alluded to earlier, and his wife, dr. joe biden may all as much as a half 1000000 dollars to the i r s, because they reportedly may up improperly used an s corp to avoid paying taxes on speaking fees and book sale profits that they took in. if this is true,
2:54 am
wouldn't buy and be guilty of exactly what is accusing others of doing. and by the way, whereas the media, the same media who was and still is obsessed with trumps taxes. net, where, where is their reporting on this? well, i don't expect them to report much of anything, steve, on this because they're actually acting as propaganda to support this regime the by the administration. you're never going to see accountability. but steve, this also highlights again that we have a real problem in this country where there are among those, among what i call the ruling class, who think that the rules and laws are for the dirty little peasants. and for them, it's more series of suggestions. you cannot survive long as a civilization of the country in which you have a bifurcated society in which the laws only apply to a certain a certain segment of the population. and the ruling class thinks that there are exempt at some point, it would be nice if we actually had equal application of the law. and rule of law really became a real thing again in this country. but i don't expect it anytime soon, especially not accountability from the media ladon. earlier today,
2:55 am
we found out that the president lied or didn't know what he was talking about when he told stephanopoulos that he didn't get advice to leave troops in afghanistan. because 3 of the generals said they, they did, we earlier we, of course we have always cost nothing. and you know, you said that up by the communications. now we have him constantly pay a fair share. i'm in my whole career, my whole life. i've been about that, and now it turns out he may have put money aside where it didn't belong and may not have paid in fair share. where does it end with this guy? so here's from want to talk about accountability. we want elected official, no matter what size you are on, who can take responsibility when they are wrong. one thing we know for our and that by it is not to in down in cancelling in his taxes. if this was a mistake and he repaid that mistake, that's perfectly fine. american all the time, make mistakes on their test. that is very different and a far cry from the back. the trumpet deal trying to pretend that he is under an
2:56 am
audit. we don't even have anything to compare is true and he would never take responsibility. so what the media should be reporting just like you are now, is that what everybody makes mistakes? the question is, are you going to fix those mistakes? wasn't an honest mistake, or were you trying to flick in high money here in their filing between a m a c cor american. they all the, let me, let me, let me make a prediction. it was an honest mistake because it's just a good old joe biden. i wish we had more time to debate this, but i want, i want to get to this before we run out of time. take a look at the fairfax county, public schools suspended circulation of 2 books in the libraries of high schools on friday, after community members complained about the sexual content of the books. speakers told school board members, the books described pedophilia, but a review of the works shows that they said no such content. nonetheless,
2:57 am
the 2 books, gender queer, a memoir and lawn boy will be reviewed by the school system in response to the complaints. to me. net is so rare, dose of common sense. i mean, these parents were making up stuff that was in this book. they must have found a lot of objectionable content. you know, steve, a, it's one of those things. i have 4 kids in public school right now. it be really nice if we just got back to the basics. let's teach advanced math. let's teach real history. let's teach all the basics. instead of trying to use our children as experimental laboratory rats, for whatever crazy ideas they want to come up with. so it's really nice to see at least a moment of sanity, but i also say this, i think it's also a little bit of self preservation. i'm in loudon, county, virginia, and i'm helping with the recall effort. i hope we're going to be able to recall least 5 of the school board members for some real accountability. so in some ways it might even just be self preservation that they're responding this way. ladon, you know, i think that as time goes on,
2:58 am
it shows how the american system are. it is great that there are parents who are speaking to their elected officials and the elected officials are responding. i think if you compare different households, they're going to have different opinions. what we do know, there are a lot of american children who do not feel seen. they may not feel theme because they're poor because of how they identify because of their race and books that can help them to explore that is appropriate. they're in a public library or the school. my parents i think we've seen examples of them getting really carried away to put it very mildly, hey, i thank both of you for being here. was a pleasure. thank you. we'll speak again soon. thanks. hi, it's a crazy world out there, and that's all the time we have for this episode of news news use. i'm c balls burger for scotty. no use. you can follow me on twitter and see them talk. and for this show and more download the portable dot tv app for your apple or android device. thanks for watching everyone have
