dominated almost every public aspect by the chinese in just 15 to 20 years. and here in washington, dc, you are more likely to die from a gunshot wound in the corona virus and the present. so why is there still a state of emergency in this city, which is forcing up multiple mandates on a businesses visitors and residence? well, one reason and sadly it has nothing to do with public health. we will bring you at the $360.00 view and studying video from a plane crash in california. but this has not been the 1st time. the neighborhood has seen a plane crash in the area. so why does this keep happening and what are officials doing to help prevent? it actually brings us the story from california. i'm getting out. he's bringing you and that 360 view on these stories on today's news news news right here on our to america. ah,
9:32 pm
oh, thanks for joining me. it was anyone actually expecting the united states to be done with giving money to afghanistan? now in economic $8.00, a loan since 2130 percent of the total foreign aid given by the united states to the world was actually designated to afghanistan totaling around $39000000000.00. now we definitely cannot forget the estimates as high as $85000000000.00 worth of military equipment which was left behind in the region is now controlled by the taliban. however, find direct talks between the taliban and the united states. u. s. has agreed to provide more humanitarian aid to the desperately poor afghanistan, people who are on the breed. if not already admits an economic disaster. their exact numbers are not known of how much the u. s. has committed, but we do know that the e u has pledged 1150000000 and aid during the g. 20 virtual meeting in the united
9:33 pm
nations is coming on more countries to send age afghanistan, banks on closing, and the social services such as else care have been suspended in many places. we need to find ways to make the economy, but again, the world to take action and the inject liquidity into the african economy, to avoid collapse, to this guy, sabrina daniel mcadams, executive director of the ron paul institute. thanks for joining me. daniel ross got it. i mean, come on now when we were withdrawing our troops, the chaos that was going on. do you think anybody actually expected the us to just stop ones are true for gone, that we were not a noun form going to be giving taxpayer dollars in afghanistan for a very long time? well, the thing is scary. that aid is power and control. it really has very little to do with humanitarian concerns. the u. s. is desperate to get back into afghanistan in one way or another. and in fact, over the weekend,
9:34 pm
the talks and doha were attended by u. s. government officials, including the us intelligence community, the cia is desperate to get back into the dentist and in a big way. and so aid is one way that you can work your way in work your way back in with 8 of course comes administrators and others. so it really is an attempt to regain power that's been lost now that the u. s. is less against him. and so i might even say that actually is more powerful than actual manpower on the ground. but here's the thing with this. it is going around just talking about pencils and bottles of water. there's actually a, comes in a wide variety of forms. also can come in cash can also be an option. and yet time and time again, we find daniel, that america does not put any checks and balances into where this aid is going. it just disappears. so is there actually anything that could be in place to make sure that the aid was put in the hands of people as what has been promised and not just use exclusively by the taliban? and in some cases, we found back against the united states. well,
9:35 pm
as doctor paul is always said, a is taking money from for people in rich countries in giving it to rich people in poor countries. and while the taliban might not be rich, they certainly have their hands on plenty of access to the states. riches. what little there may be less, but you know, all money is fungible. all aid is fungible. the money that the us will give the column on to for humanitarian aid, us money. they don't have to spend doing other things. so again, really is not as related to monitoring concerns as is to the u. s. desire to somehow somehow get back in control and that is a do that kind of under the cover that, that we find that so many times it's allocated by congress, a part of the part of part of the budget maybe and make them sleep better. but we know that it's actually going right back in the hands of contractors and large companies that have ties back tonight. states. it's kind of like a hamster will assign, you know, here's my thought in this. when are we already going to see that already started the cia once a chunk of the pie? is there other groups right now that are already counting on this aid happening?
9:36 pm
and maybe that's why they were so quick to withdraw the way they did. that's really a great point that you make, scotty and that a, the us spends overseas military you've mandatory in a, whatever it may be. is that you just welfare for well connected companies here in the us. it's welfare for the big defense manufacturers for humanitarianism, inc. and all sorts of companies and n g o like this. so you are absolutely right. the money doesn't really go to the people who need it most. if the us really care about the well being of the average, ask any person it would simply stay the hell away from the country forever. because we've done enough to screw up the country over the past 20 years. given the money back that we have frozen in their accounts, let them deal with that their own way. let them get about rebuilding their country on their own and just leave them be well in these debates change us saying look, wasted strong. we're not actually relinquishing their bank accounts, we're not on freezing them. we're not actually taking away any of the, the rules and that we've put on them to this point. so as the u. s. actually
9:37 pm
standing strong as of now and you expect to continue? i think the us believes it has more insulin stuff can ascend. that actually does worst case scenario for the taliban running up can stand right now is us says, hey, if you don't have a more diverse government, you know, get your money back. in which case, the tolerance is okay, that's fine, we'll make a deal with china. it's not going to be free money like it might be quote unquote, from the us. but they know that the chinese, for example, aren't supporting terrorism, and that can stand in the u. s. does have ties. just all of the scripts, the weaker is the weaker of the fellow who just mom to a couple of days ago. his group was taken off the terrorists list, why the trust administration. so they'll know that they're dealing with a partner in china for example, that wants to do business rather than wants to control. so i think the total of on or holding a lot more cards in their hand in the us right now. and here's what's amazing talking about a you look at, i can see what the reasons why we were there in the 1st place is because it had so much money and had so much natural resources as minerals are so valuable. and yet
9:38 pm
they're looking to us for money when they might even have it in their own back yard . daniel is great to chat with you. thanks. got it. okay. so when the battle looks lost, is it better to just give up, walk away, or stay and fight, hoping for something to improve. ideally, if anyone is going to stay and fight a lost cause, i would hope it would be someone who works. maybe at the pentagon, especially if they were insecurity and technology, or one guy who does stay and work hard even when it gets to that schedule has been squandered, joins us now with a story that sound like a this man as a hero. while others might look at him as kind of a coward. yeah, absolutely. so who is nicholas challenge chilly in and out? why did he quit? so he was the pentagon's chief software guy, right. he's in charge of all the software at the pentagon. their 1st software chief, and he's now quit, essentially saying, look, the u. s. a so far behind china in terms of a development that will never catch up. we're a kindergarten level. they're playing in the big leagues and so he's angry. he says
9:39 pm
that the u. s. didn't do enough to invest in a i spent too much time investing in bureaucracy. i would actually agree with that point. but i don't agree with the point that he's making, which is that he says, essentially the u. s. should a more a i technology develop that with the pentagon more and now we're behind. and so we're going to lose. we've already lost. he says the battle to check here when he's sorry, i technologies any more. monitoring more things are robots actually can see what everybody's doing. it's the control of information. so i system so he refers to it as you know, media. he says, in the future, all media is going to be dominated by china, because they'll be able to control ai, which there's, there's some truth to this idea, right? that ai is able to do this. but here's one thing. i take huge exception too. is that what, what this guy is essentially saying is that the us should have spent more time doing this instead of debating the ethics of his words. he says the u. s. been too much time worrying about the ethics of a i. that is absolutely not true. ethics of ai is so critically important. now i'm gonna tell you there are 2 groups because one thing that he's not telling us the truth about is that in the united states,
9:40 pm
it's not the pentagon that's making the investments into a i, that's true. but someone is silicon valley is right. so google and microsoft and amazon massive companies that are split out, spinning in the pentagon, by the way, on the development of ai that is taking place every single day. the pentagon hasn't spent the money on it because depending on doesn't want to develop it. instead, they want to go contract with companies like amazon and companies like microsoft and google, who will then utilize their ai services on behalf of the pentagon. and then you don't have this kind of sticky ethical issue. so he completely ignores that part of it as if there's only 2 entities, china and the united states government, it's not, it's china and silicon valley that are battling to that well. and is it more security though to have private corporations going to that sort of research or the government? neither one is necessarily welcome per se, but do one of them is someone that controls your daily life. so i would say both, right? i would say the problem is the actually the unholy alliance of what we have right now is the worst possible combination, which is all of the vast power of silicon valley coupled with the authority of the
9:41 pm
u. s. government. but there's no accountability on the side of, of silicon valley. the accountability that's on the government. well, they don't have folks. they say we're not developing any of this, right? that some private company that's doing it. we have, we have created a leviathan, we've created a monster that is able to run a muck and do whatever it wants to do, and we have no control over it. so while, while this pentagon chief, he's getting a lot of this, you know, security software guy, seen a lot of attention today, never though, look, here's the problem, trying is more advanced and we are china, maybe more advanced. i'm not sure they're more advanced and silicon valley, are they more advanced than the pentagon? yes. but what he's not talking about is there has to be in this cold war, nuclear race, excuse, excuse me, for, for running for a technology. right. at some point we have to sit down and say, where are the ethical lines that have to be drawn? what are the rights of people in this? china is never going to have that discussion. we should be having that discussion here. not rushing to create a i as fast as we can,
9:42 pm
but that's the question. if we have it here in the united states, but not the rest of the world, does it put that people, does it make the usb even weaker than our own government find? we were for our own government, but what about foreign enemies? am i come in? well yeah, i listen. i'm not sure a necessarily protects us against that. i'm not sure. a, i protects us in any ways. you know, think about this, that the creation of the i phone, right. and in what? 2007, right? when the iphone comes along, all of a sudden the world changed. forever like, vastly changed because the smartphone came along and it transferred everything. and the problem is that we didn't spend much time as a society debating, is it good? now, there are a lot of good things that come out of a smartphone, but we also know there's a lot of bad things that are coming smartphones. and so we don't have that debate, i think what is lacking in this a i discussion is just because you can create this technology. and just because the technology can be used for lots of good things, should we have it. and what are the restraints that we put on it? this is a sorely lacking discussion. when it comes to a i and ultimately, you know, you watch every movie about this, right? it always turns out badly. you give a never, jones,
9:43 pm
and i think that's where we're headed. i don't think we're necessarily headed to we're a terminator conclusion, but we are headed down a very rough road. if we believe it's okay to just push ai on the boundaries as far as we can without also wayne, the moral and ethical obligations and the difference between public versus private and you're actually has that power in that access. the information would be real interesting to see who this guy goes to actually next employer. i think that might be more behind and it's always money is always come behind money. always good to talk to ben, courtesy in studio, he's got to the port of savannah and georgia is overwhelmed with shipping containers. as the supply chain crisis continues. there are tens of thousands of containers stacked up on the dock and other side of possible supply chain crisis coming in the next few months. tre. chavez has this story. when coven 19 forced to many businesses and operations to shut down the supply chain shut down to. and

9:48 pm
a cardiologist from arizona is reportedly one of the victims. officials say to others were injured to pretty rural, same law for our guys, and we're trying to comb, fluid security cameras, catching the smoke and flames in real time after the cessna took a nose, dive into u. p. s. van, then you're buy homes destroying 10 others. multiple structures are required to get back to one of them. one of those homes belong to local newly weds who just finished remodeling days ago. the couple identified as courtney and cody were not at home at the time of the accident. their dog was reportedly away with a family member. according to the federal aviation administration, the plane was a twin engine, cessna c. 340. the crash happened about 3 blocks from santana high school and the city of about 50000 residents. all students were unharmed. the plane were poorly departed from yuma, arizona, who was expected to land at san diego montgomery airport. the national transportation safety board is investigating the crash authorities here. the pilot
9:49 pm
had received multiple warnings that he was flying to low. and according to documents, this is the 3rd fatal plane crash in san t and the last 6 years. reporting for news, buz hughes, and hush suite. our t. washington d. c. mayor mariel bowels or has it just extended the sea state of emergency into 2022, making it mandatory mask inside public buildings and restrictions on businesses stay in place. but with the city which boast a 70 percent vaccination rate of either partially or fully back, say residents and a 7 day average rate of 20 new cases daily or 100000 people. some are wondering why the mayor is not hosting of the amazing record and granting more freedom to our constituents. so let's get the $360.00 to you and bring it to dc residence. reese everson attorney, and founder of the blood project. and conservative commentator malik abdul, thanks for joining me. i read, you know, at this point i'm bringing you,
9:50 pm
i normally bring you on for political views, but this is actually just about everyday life. and i think this is what a lot of people and major cities, not only in the united states, but around the world are having to do with their scratching their heads. going great numbers. you know, you're seeing these covert desk go down. you're seeing the coven numbers go vaccination rates go high, and yet restrictions are still in place. believe let me start with you. less than a dozen desk by coven 19 record. in the last month there was actually more shootings, industries, people injured and actually killed by drive by shootings in the streets. then what died of cove it. so why is it the mayor not only praising herself and her city more importantly, lifting the restrictions? and so i think a lot of it has to do with politics and performative politics at that. i think that mayor and maybe mayors and governors around the country. they found a boston sales man because we were told that, you know, the only thing that we had to do is get double trunk out of office. and once we got donald trump out of office, did somehow cope it was miraculously disappear. what we're seeing now, even with
9:51 pm
a nicer joe biden and joe biden, who doesn't have those ne tweets. our numbers haven't gotten better. we were also told that if we could get to that 70 percent number, then things would actually be better. we would also, i'm told that the idea of beauty, you know, we're not even discussing her nudity anymore, but i think that may or it is boxed or been because she's actually told so closely to that line that somehow formative politics should replace science and i'm hearing for business owners all across the city are, jim's definitely are suffering in respect to areas like maryland and virginia are businesses actually are suffering. and so there is no scientific reason why the mayor is continue with these restrictions outside of the politics. and there may be a financial incentive today. well, and that is what i wanna talk about that financial incentive, but also for small business, reese, you walk around downtown d. c after 7 pm,
9:52 pm
it is a ghost town. businesses are closed, you have to order and food from outside of downtown. when you want to do that, do you think the business community will have enough power at some point to say listen, we need to open up and get this action back. gunner is totally a ghost town from where the thriving place that it was 2 years ago. when i do now for a fact that is very interesting times in downtown dc, especially during the colder months having to you know, order out or even sit outside in 20 degrees, wearing a cold under a heat lamp and trying to cut your food wearing a coat so that's a very uncomfortable situation to not be able to do or die at the same time, we do have to consider the fact that last year we were, you know, contemplating what things would half what things would be like during flu season. and so knowing that we're gearing up for flu season again, i think that's just an added precaution, that the mayor is trying to take. and then also realizing that it's not just about the economics of the business community, but also the people,
9:53 pm
the people have been hit hard by this devastation and people have lost their jobs or not been able to get back to work at issues with child care. and so there are things like that there funding with these when you talk about the economic incentives such as programs like stay d. c, which help people with rent or grants that help small micro businesses who are trying to catch up due to what cove it has done to their businesses. and so there are programs that extend beyond just the, you know, day to day business office. as you can see, is the business owners that you can't see in a lot of people are taking in economic hit. and so it's not just the the coven in the pandemic. it's also the financial incentives because people have been financially hurt by this crisis. well, and how much is the government helping? are they hurting downtown business ma lake on these issue when it comes to this at the present? well if you look at the numbers, i think the spring maybe about $300.00 or so business is $200.00 of which have
9:54 pm
permanently closed as they make it. there were another 100 or so that were temporarily closed. now that is something that we're not just dealing with in dc. we're dealing with it all around the country. but as far as our schools, particularly here on my side of the river river anacostia area, there has been a huge concern about what has the city done leading up to this recent school year. because we have schools that were essentially close for most of their school year, but now they're dealing with the same problems with co infections, worst schools, literally around the corner for me, where i volunteer goals schools we're having to close down because this, this school district itself the city did not do it now with the funds that they were given by the federal government to really be puppy operations at the school. so reset police, right? it actually goes beyond just how it affects the business community. we're seeing it real time that the schools are still being affected by this. so i do it. you know
9:55 pm
me and the community are really asking the question, what is it that the city did to prepare our schools and areas like warranty, dc and board 7, dc. what did the city do with that number and preparing our schools? it's a big concern and i know that across the board in a city with democrat, this is residents of the city are really concerned about and, and race. i just want to give you this last word on this because if you look at it, yes, the numbers are looking really good. the vaccination numbers are looking good. unfortunately, we're still hearing rumors of possibly another way that might come through and other very it might come through. do you think with our numbers being good and still being having to be under this that people are, might ignore in the future. it's kind of like i say wolf because there was definitely a problem in there. do you think this could actually have a negative effect in the future if there is another round of this pandemic? not really and, and here's the reason. yes, people are tired of being in the house and we're tired of wearing mass. people are tired of taking precautions, but at the same time he bore still losing love ones. and that's
9:56 pm
a very real concern. people are still finding, you know, going to the hospital and being intubated because of this. how does that virus? so the truth of the matter is, is still deadly. and that more importantly, we know that there are other strains that are coming, lambda and other things that are, you know, in the pipeline and hitting other places in the world. and so we keep our eyes open, we are only prudent if we take precaution knowing what's coming down the pipeline. and so if that's the case, we have to start figuring how to prepare ourselves. we, we can't be too cautious at this point. a recently are going to have to kind of bear it a little longer. i recently like always a great our vision and we'll see, i said 2020 to the mayor just extended thanks for joining me. up and that's all the time we are for j show, but i promise is a conversation which we will continue. so follow me on twitter at scottie and using hash tag team and vh over the share more dell or the portable that to be at for your apple or android device. thanks for watching. ah
9:57 pm
