7:08 pm

the number trying to gain entry is hitting new highs. earlier this week, president biden recognized that he should visit the united states border in the south, but said that he didn't have time. do you have went to visit the southern border? i've been there before and i haven't, i mean, i know it. well, i guess i should go down, but the above on the whole point of it is i haven't had a whole lot of time to get down. it is the federal government's job to secure our border. but the bottom ministration has failed to do his job. the months slung, such an illegal crossings has instigated an international humanitarian crisis, spurred spike and international criminal activity, an open the floodgates to human traffic is in drug smugglers endangering public health and safety in our states. all right, paul dobson, journalist for independent new site. venezuelan analysis dot com says a major factor in the current crisis is the u. s. role in keeping the migrant home
7:14 pm
countries economically handicapped strike is really the consequence of the prolong structure, economic situation and central and latin america. in the case of venezuela, we really have to look at the role of the united states in keeping these countries handicapped, empowering to some extent and, and in our case, the unilateral quest measures against the country, the road at washington is not innocent when it comes to the, the economic crisis, generalized economic crisis in many of these countries in honduras and height, the question of migration to the united states is very uncomfortable. there are be sectors which we prefer not to migrate into the country. but there are also strong sectors, especially with the upper classes of the united states, which recognized the u. s. economy. and to some extent means this cheap labor force in the country who are willing to work for lower wages in more precarious conditions without collective contracts, without trade union rights,
7:15 pm
and due to the need of the volume eventually need to maintain their family and to eat america's leading medical research agency has admitted funding risky studies into bats and chronic viruses in china's will. hon province, despite earlier denials from america's top infectious diseases expert, dr. anthony valgy, that us money had gone into so called gain of function research. correspondent daniel armstrong, looks at the implications a game of fat and mouse in the u. s. over corona virus research findings and public funds. quite literally, a top national institutes of health official has admitted us taxpayer money, finance, testing, mice in china with backbone of irish, genetically altered to make it more transmissible to humans. now the danger, as such, research has always been that the virus could escape the lab and spark a public health disaster. limited experiment described in the final progress report was testing if spike proteins from naturally occurring. but corona viruses
7:16 pm
circulating in china were capable of binding to the human ac 2 receptor in a mouse model. laboratory mice infected with the s h c 014, w i v one bat corona virus became sicker than those infected with the w i. v one batt corona virus. eco hell fell to report this find in rice away as was required by the terms of the grant. and yet for months the biden administration's big cheese on the disease thought to anthony found, she denied any claims that the u. s. funded such projects, it comes as vindication for republican senator ran paul, who's quest for transparency on the investigation, was beginning to look like a rat race? no one saying the are it isn't, it isn't. and malachi, los virus cause the pandemic. what were alleging is the gain of function research was going on in that lab and, and i h funded it that is in right away from it. it meets your definition, and you are obvious gating, the truth. anybody have lying here, senator?
7:17 pm
it is you. some experts say found she knowingly misled the country, the national institutes of health, se acknowledgements of the facts is new, but the facts themselves and not new. the national institutes of health was informed about the gain of function research in wu and in 2018 and again in 2020 collins and felt she lied to congress light to the press and light to the public. now although the bat is out of the bag, according to take back, let's say he seems to us is try to corp anything indicating any links to such research in the us space eco health alliance. president pizza, dash jack was even chosen as part of a w h o team of experts to investigate the origins of cove it. but it seems that much of us help level efforts in the pandemic, not least, their insistence on blaming and investigating china of only expose u. s. official cover ups and lies with
7:18 pm
a disturbing question being why cover up and lies needed these most recent revelations show that the out she and national institute of health director calling either outright wide or. busy have absolutely no idea what's going on with their agencies either way they have no business running these organizations. and frankly, i think there needs to be a full open investigation into whether or not they did know directly. no. and if so, they should be held to the, to the fullest extent of punishment for that if history is a judge of how it's going to go, we're going to see little to no accountability, but i hope i'm wrong. meanwhile, it's merged that anthony file g has been the top paid federal employee for years in 2004. he was granted a permanent pay adjustment for bio defense research. he now earns more than the u. s. president spike cohen says the revelations about gain of function research really come as no surprise. i think it is the height of a good say to believe that what we know,
7:19 pm
the u. s. government you have done from the 1939495969799202010 has suddenly magically stopped in the 20 twenty's that you know a decade century plus of subterfuge in clandestine operations and you know, and cover ups and scandals and lice suddenly ended, even though no one ever was held accountable for the old lies and clandestine operations and so forth. so i hate to say that, you know, i don't think this is a one off the car for the course for large authoritarian government. congress has other questions for dr. foul g over revelations that his institute funded experiments on the vehicle puppies, including testing drugs and surgery to stop them barking $1500000.00 taxpayer dollars were apparently spent on what lawmakers called costly, cruel, and unnecessary experiment. we've got the full story online right now at r t dot com. the equivalent defense chief warrant is german counterpart that she risks repeating
7:20 pm
a tragic historical precedent after she calls to put nato nuclear weapon to long russia's borders. the story much more coming away. after short breaks, they went to says art international ah ah ah, ah.
7:21 pm
so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is on offense. very dramatic and development only personally, i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. i'm time to sit down and talk ah, ah, ah morgan back. this is our t international. now, moscow has warned berlin and it's nato allies not to tempt fate by deploying military hardware, including nuclear weapons, close to russia. borders. against the backdrop of calls to contain russia,
7:22 pm
nato was amassing his forces along russia's borders. the german defense minister should know very well what consequences such moves have led to in the past, both for germany and europe. all right, that stern remark came shortly after germany's defense minister, called on nato, to be ready to deploy nuclear weapons, to quote, deter russia near its maritime borders in the baltic and black sees the berlin official, was challenged to explain. her hostile remarks. royce reported this morning, the plaintiff contemplating the turn scenario for the baltic and black c regions, possibly involving air deployed nuclear weapons. is this the best native prepared to take? this is not the path of karen miss, and we must make it very clear to russia that in the end were ready. and that is also the deterrent doctrine to deploy. such means is to deter in advance and so that nobody comes to the idea of attacking nato partners in the bull taken black regions. and this is her comments coincided with nato unveiling its new master plan to defend the block against what it calls
7:23 pm
a potential russian attack on multiple fronts. the western military alliance held a 2 day meeting of defense ministers that wrapped up on friday. here's how nato secretary general described the current state of relations between the block and russia. it'll sir approach shown to russia her remains the same as before, meaning earn credible the turns on the fence, combined with efforts to a meaningful dialogue with russia. the relationship between nato and russia is now at a low point. it has not been more difficult since to handle the cold war. and sanitary expansion into the former soviet republics goes against promises was given to mikhail gorbachev. back in 1089. $1009.00 team in the soviet union was current and was collapse that leads to wouldn't expand into the zones as interesting as well. is that germany has a traditional, recently been quite calmer in regards to russia, but once germany increased his military spending in order to comply with linux,
7:24 pm
which americans basically said which once germany to join britain, fran isn't taking a much more bellicose stance towards a towards russia so i suspect is a game going on in conway, in german politics, as the era of angel narco comes to an end selling out working people is what british prime minister boys johnson's been accused of the mid a rise in so called fire and re hire practices the notorious scheme of dropping van re employing workers on worst terms, has intensified during the pandemic, according to unions, and has the political opposition. really. this week government has allowed bad bosses to force brutal changes to contracts and take thousands and wages from families. there is agreement across the political spectrum that fire and re hire is unfair, unjust, and unacceptable. but once again, we have only warm wars and bluster from bars. johnson who's ordering his m p. 's to
7:25 pm
vote down the bill selling out work and people in the process. it's coercive. it's bullying. it. i can tell you from experience it's, it's very, it's a, it's a very unpleasant situation. almost feels like being in an abusive relationship because the workplace is the relationship which is you know, it is built on trust and confidence. i'm what fire re hire those. is it breaches. watch, trust and confidence on. that's why i felt i have no other option, but to allow myself, in my experience, to be sac on the fiery high because i could not continue in that relationship any more. am because because of its abuse of nature, raise it. figures show nearly a quarter of all your co workers say that they have had their conditions such as pay our ours, downgraded during the pandemic, and many say that they have endured fire and hot re hire practices having to reapply for their jobs on worse terms. and conditions or face the sac for shots himself has called the practice unacceptable. however,
7:26 pm
fire and re hire remains legal, provided that due process is, are followed like formerly consulting workers and observing set notice periods. but kevin burn the former u. k. gas industry worker. you heard from before believes the laws are protecting the wrong people. so force it because you know, i am a law abiding citizen. like most people and, you know, i'm like to believe that the laws are there to protect it. citizens for i think it with best experience to realize the laws are actually there to protect corporations on them and the money class. what makes it where me is? yes, it is the final insult. because when i embark on my disputes, my incense, shame, and the sanction of my colleagues and comrades was. so when are the speech and to women, so convincingly bass, no company would, would use fire and re hire. but for sleep, that didn't happen. you know, it's to paraphrase, harper late m. m is bought to kill
7:27 pm
a mockingbird. the definition of cottage is when you know you left from the beginning. but you begin anyway. and that's what we did. because we were up against that with, with the corporation such as british just one of germany's largest public transport companies has pulled the some of its electric buses out of service. it is a precautionary measure after a charging station was destroyed by fire and munich late last month. the company blames a technical defect for the blaze, which appears to be a not insignificant issue with electric vehicles in the country are spear oliver has more as berlin embraces electric transportation. these battery powered buses that being traveling along the route, $200.00 for just over a year. now, taking passengers to such sites as that you have in capitals to however, 3 fires across the country. a depos with electric buses. the most recent in
7:28 pm
september, ang stuttgart, has raised questions about safety. not just of buses, but all electric vehicles. yeah. absolute. yes. the risk of these 5 include in, in other locations such as the bicycle basement, or large apartment blogs, is completely unaddressed. also insurance companies and not yet tackling the issue to day. it's not regulated. the martini and it's not possible to regulate fires in general. so it is likely that debt post electric bosses and the deepest for other buses will be separated and that fire barriers will be built between the individual buses to reduce the risk of europe is experiencing a boom in sales of electric vehicles with manufacturers of them doing a roaring trade between april and june of this year, one in every 12 calls sold was 100 percent electric. when you put hybrid into the mix, you're looking at a 3rd of all sales across europe. it's been
7:29 pm
a meteorite rise as well. fucking 2018 less than 200000 electric vehicles were sold here in year of this year though, we're expecting that figure to be well over $1000000.00. in fact, when you look at these numbers globally, over the next 4 years, we're expecting to see 10000000 electric vehicles sold. with that figure soaring to 30000000 by 2032 years ago we as an electricity consumer protection organization decided to also address the issue of electron mobility. electricity consumption will increase by 25 percent as a result. although that is not the real problem ocean, the main problem is that you need very high power to charge the batteries within a reasonable time. in the long run, this will lead to charging in private households. the development of an infrastructure to charge a larger number of cars is completely undeveloped. people have been too naive about
7:30 pm
this. a naive isn't incredible. on the statement one, despite bows concerns, electric vehicles, including buses like these do seem like they are going to be the future. in fact, manufacturers are so confident that they're saying that if compared to says, don't stop producing electric models. well, they're not going to be competitors for very long, like moving from the horse to the car. it's that seismic it changes everything. and to such an extent that any players that don't pivot fast enough that don't invest are unlikely to survive in the future. here in germany, a poll earlier this year showed that almost 60 percent of the population was skeptical when it came to these electric bosses. people saying that they were unsure of the environmental compatibility when it comes to electric mobility. added to that concerns over potential safety worries and not everybody is willing
