ah ah, please go on and he looked down, demonstrated in the down the cities may i gave the order to break up the 1000 strong, illegal rally code cases, deadly searching. we look at how big farmers managed to benefit from the pandemic across 2021 from a power supply crunch and a record migrant influx. the soaring inflation and all time high homicide rates. we looked at what may last year was difficult one the 90 days. but also coming up 19 years, 10 months at $25.00 days old, which is american legacy party looked back at one of the defining moments of last
4:01 am
year. the disastrous us withdraw from afghanistan that brought the country to the brink of collapse. with a real pleasure to have your company, lots of places, you could be on shore. so glad you chose our teens. first for you, this, our cobit case is a soaring ride across europe. daily, new infection rates are breaking all time records, and frances leading the way it's reported more than 200000 cases for a 4th day in a row. in the meantime, government soon gained imposing harsh restrictions, especially on those who haven't got themselves vaccinated. spoke to lot of anger though in amsterdam, people took to the streets to protest against their locked down. and they clashed with the police. he's dogs and patents to break up the legal protest. ah
4:02 am
ah ah 1000 people, as you saw, their rallying in the dutch capital on sunday, defying a ban. amidst the corona virus lockdown measures that have been in place in the netherlands for the last few weeks. now, the right places you saw there with their battens and their shields were trying to break up. the crowds who had gathered in amsterdam to show. ringback their continued anger against the restrictions that are in place and also against vaccines that the local government, which had our lord. this particular gathering had also issued an emergency ordinance which gave the police the right to head into the central museum square. and to clear those protesters from that,
4:03 am
but to despite that protest is turned out regardless. now the netherlands has been doing this extended lockdown hour since december 19th. and as a result of that, restaurants, a shot and all known of central shops are also shut. and that's going to take place and continue going on until at least the middle of the month of january, public gatherings. as part of these restrictions means that no more than 2 individuals can gather at the same time together. so this protest was clearly outside of the, the block. it's absolutely against those cart measures. but despite that, we saw this chaotic scenes in amsterdam as the police and those protest as were clashing something we have seen elsewhere to know across europe. there is, is concerned that yes, we're heading into 2022. it's yes. many people only think this is the time for fresh opportunities, a fresh chance. but there are many people who really fear that the fresh restrictions that are coming in to force mean this will be essentially another
4:04 am
groundhog here. as the authorities continue to try and grapple with the virus. just to give you an example here in france, there are new restrictions coming in to force. it includes a ban on eating and drinking on long distance trains and also a requirement now for children as young as 6 to wear a mosque. meanwhile, those who remain unvaccinated, there is some really bad news. the national assembly is going to continue debating this week a new law that would essentially curb the liberties of those who remain and vaccinated further. anti jan or p. c, r, u will not be allowed into bars, restaurants, et cetera. and you can imagine that that is going to cause a lot of consternation here in france, where around 10 percent of the population remains unvaccinated. there is anger here to resort with the new year's eve where there should have been celebrations. there
4:05 am
were a band and fireworks on the shoulder elisa and calls the muted festivities. but in, despite that they were crowds that burst on to the shoals, elisa, causing problems for the police there. and across the country we saw a much lamented new year's tradition making a big come back. this is the burning and torching of cars. almost 900 vehicles were burned on new year's eve as part of that. now there was also, i'm good that's been felt in germany to with violent riots in some cities, including a in one where there were clashes between the police and protest. is there something we seem to be seen quite a lot of in europe at the moment? the protesters setting up barricades, but then even set those a light. now all of this come amidst another rim milestone pandemic shows that there have been over a $100000000.00 cases of covert positive cases that have been quoted across the
4:06 am
european region. however, did give you some light to this. this does come at a time when studies the, suggesting that only crohn is less likely to damage to lungs than previous variance, such as the delta barry into even the alpha beat of variance. and that it also provokes a less severe and type disease. so good news, but at the same time, with all the restrictions in place and the continued fee that we are seeing from authorities, many people will be questioning if this ongoing tightening of restrictions is in fact the right path to trade in germany. people protested their governments measures by vandalizing the offices of 2 am pcsing, fireworks. one of those offices belong to the countries health minister. nobody was hurt. fortunately though there was some damage done to property. the authorities say an investigation has been launched me while
4:07 am
a crossville antic. the number of cobra cases is surging in the u. s. the weekly average is now it's about $360000.00 right through the pandemic. the world health organization has been consistent. they said the most effective way to combat the various through vaccination, but americans have been suffering one sec to though in rude health is big farmer reportedly raking it more than $90000000.00 per day. so sky taylor has more 2021 beer we discovered that ready no cure for greed. just off big pharma, pfizer is forecasting $15000000000.00 in revenue from its covert vaccine. this year . it is our 1st profitable quarter, hitting that $1900000000.00 mark a majority of which is their cobra, 1900 vaccine of course, $1000.00 every 2nd. pfizer buy on tech and modo now made $1000.00 every 2nd. but it turns out that drug companies like to pump 2 pills at once, money and power,
4:08 am
and we're better to wield one's power than in washington. d. c. introducing congress says biggest lobbyist, big pharma, which last year dropped a cool $266000000.00 to sway american lawmakers, though, given how the holy trinity of fire, madonna biotech was averaging over 900000000 a day last yet. it's really just loose change less than 3 days walk. in fact, for the rest of us though, it's an awful lot. you know what? there's also an awful lot of in the u. s. capital big pharma lope. yes. in fact, so many, but they are number congressmen, 3 to one. so what does all that cash exposure get them? well, pretty much anything that they want. this is a very powerful industry with significant lobbying clout, is very good at knowing exactly how many votes they need to kill pieces of legislation and figuring out a way to get those votes. it's funny though, because you'd think that with
4:09 am
a democrat run house and senate pharmaceutical giants would have had a tough year. after all thing years the party's been promising to fight the greed. first, we'll take on the drug and insurance companies and hold them accountable for the prices they charge and the harm they cause about bringing the cost of prescription drugs down to the pharmaceutical companies have been jacking up prices hand over fist for years, and then we'll tell the pharmaceutical companies, thanks, but no thanks for overpriced drugs pay the highest prescription drug prices of any developed nation in the world. it's called valiant pharmaceuticals. i'm going after them. we are going to stop this. this is predatory pricing, but enough is enough. the greed of the pharmaceutical industry is killing americans and making many of them much sicker than they otherwise would have been. it has got to stop. so we need congress to finish the job, to come together and make a difference in people's lives. turns out though, making money is so much more fun than making
4:10 am
a difference in people's lives. in fact, 60 percent of big farmers, you know, be money goes to democrats. so when in april upon was proposed to knock down truck prices surprise it got voted down one of the people against it, new jersey senator bald mendez, you know, how much mendez is pocketed from the drug, sloppy this year. $80000.00. then along came the build back bat act, which among other things wanted to make medication actually affordable a ridiculous idea. so what did big pharma do? it splash some serious cash to block the bell? big farmer will spend, do, and say whatever it takes to defeat any legislation that will curb his unilateral power to dictate prices of prescription drugs. apparently the big pharma rules that leave almost one in for americans unable to afford that regular medication is necessary because, well, reef touch. we have an obligation to ensure that the sale of our medicines provide
4:11 am
us with the resources necessary to invest in future research and development. and while the lobbies $1000000.00 add failed bill, bach mattress on the rocks anyway. so fingers crossed, you know, what came as a real shock, other than politicians, putting money for people and pharmaceutical joints. not caring about public health . the fact the big pharma plays dottie 1st drug companies have raised prices with abandon, especially when they succeed in delaying a blocking competition. in some cases, tied to higher pay for executives. second, companies have manipulated the peyton system and marketing exclusivity is to extend their monopolies. 3rd, all the companies, the committee investigated, have employed anti competitive strategies to suppress generic competition. really, but no one i was having control of like saving medication. also, it wouldn't be mad at the pandemic class in just a little while longer. they got on
4:12 am
a path and they want to keep this path there. and these other therapeutics aren't really going to make them a lot of money. politicians, i'm big pharma harder walk in dc, saving lives, solving the people, and showing each and every day that that's no drug, more addictive than money. power. and everything in between. the was not just covered. that was giving us a headache last year with the migrant crisis. along the some border and record homicide rates and major cities also adding to his woes. for instance, 2021 was chicago's deadliest year, the 25 years coming as it did, and the d from the police movement. kellum will protect us through the major challenges the u. s. face last year. 2021 is going to be a hard year to forget. americans have been through a lot in the last 12 months. the year began with a tough challenge for green energy,
4:13 am
low temperature is hit. the united states by surprise, texas was the worst hit because 25 percent of its electricity comes from wind turbines. they stop spinning and froze. the texas governor blamed joe biden and his new environmental regulations for the disaster that ensued. texas is going to protect the oil and gas industry from any type of hostile attack launched from washington d. c. president obama post wind turbines. pretty hard. and despite last, winter's disaster biden is still giving them a big role, a key plank of our build back better recovery plan is building a modern, resilient climate infrastructure and clean energy future that will create millions of good pain. you didn't jobs all that and go friendly. energy was not prepared for some cold weather. energy providers could not manage utility. bills were through the roof. i'm pretty much paid $9.00, a kilowatt electricity,
4:14 am
but i was very conservative with my electricity, so i have no idea exactly why this bill is so much but steadily going up. i absolutely cannot afford it. i'm not exactly sure. you know, who can it's gotten to the point where some people have totally turned out their power because they can't afford methods enough. they, they just can't afford it. it's a basic necessity for living. basic utilities should not cause spouton. and then there was coven, the total death toll in america rose to about $800000.00. jo biden's, coven mandates, requiring people to get the job in order to keep their jobs resulted in employee shortages protests and even rioting. many different reasons were cited my people for reposing it. oh lord, i
4:15 am
important public services like firefighters, police and even airlines were a hard hit despite government attempts to convince people that vaccination against cove it is vital, a lot of people fear. and i think rightly so, they could end up on the street with no paycheck in the united states. we're already under a very ste. i would call a severe shortage of qualified individuals to be mechanics, to be find a tennis to be pilots, specifically, half of the industry could potentially be gone. it's not just coven, it's killing people. st. crime is getting worse. many cities had the highest crime rates they've ever had since the ninety's with
4:16 am
last year the rallying cry was defined the police, but many are starting to back track on that, saying they don't feel safe and they need protection diesel and the police just as a regular rule has been a colossal failure and he, placing tried to implement de from the police crime has gone up. what has been york chicago in minneapolis in the late it's it's been a colossal failure because what stops crime? what brings crime down. especially violent crimes are more police on the street. you have to have police on the street in order for your street be safe. now things have also been heating up on the border to 1000000 migrants have been arrested illegally crossing the border. that's the highest rate in 20 years. now many thought that joe biden's election on a promise of software immigration policies was a signal that opened up the floodgates. but in reality,
4:17 am
vital did not end up changing many of trumps immigration policies. asylum seekers still have to wait in mexico and the detention facilities along the us. mexico border are still just as ugly. how many children have been in the biden cages and calendar year 20? $21.00. senator. i respectfully disagree with your use of the term cages. by the way, here's a photograph of the biden cages that the senator, that is precisely why i articulated children on floors crashed in upon each other. when i took this photograph, the covey rate of cobit positivity was over 10 percent. all of this while prices are rising, inflation is the name of the game. the usa is facing the highest rate of inflation in 40 years with more than half of americans saying that they think the biden administration is only making things worse. it's been a terrible year for inflation. it's up around 8 percent or higher. this is the
4:18 am
levels that we haven't seen since back in the jimmy carter years in the seventy's when the government just prints money out of thin air and spends it on things and gives it to people. it causes the value of your money to go down. that's what's happening in america. the government is printing money, spending more than it brings in, and actually the proposals to deal with it mostly are going to make things worse. the u. s. a leaving afghanistan after 20 years, a military presence forced washington to answer some questions about whether hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars were basically left to waste. not forgetting the countless lives lost on both the american and afghan side. i
4:19 am
with the extraordinary success of this mission was due to the incredible skill, bravely and selfless courage of united states, military and our diplomat and intelligence professionals. it was designed to save american lives. this left the majority of americans blaming joe biden, for the afghan. pull out with politicians from all across the political spectrum, joining the chorus, the most illegal migrant crossings in 20 years. the highest crime rates in 30 years and a 40 year high and inflation, as well as the end of a to decade, military operation. after a year of bad records. many americans are hoping that 2022 will bring respite kayla
4:20 am
. bobbin our to new york. ah, of ganesh, down is on the brink of a humanitarian catastrophe. millions of people all facing starvation, cold weather, battering the population. the country's economy on his knees shrunk by nearly half in the month since the u. s. withdraw from the country. the hasty american exit saw tragic scenes unfolding ah, thousands of afghans tried to flee the country during and after the u. s. evacuation that led to celtic seems a cobble apples and panic across the capital. ninety's correspond run guest here, it was in cobble for us and the tank in 2001. it began with with righteousness and pump invade. i've gotta stand to fight for freedom to fight
4:21 am
terrorism and make the world a better place. 19 years, 10 months and $25.00 days on. this is america's legacy. destroyed and sabotaged equipment. a country bought a ruin and still in control of the talbot. that is the ultimate tragedy of the afghan war at was entirely and violently pointless. years and years of an obliging little questioning media. fooled billions into believing that there was progress that america could win total victory over the taliban to taliban flat, the end of the taliban. taliban leadership on the run. and now the question is, how do you handle that? success ah ah, ah, it wasn't supposed to be this way. the taliban
4:22 am
wasn't supposed to sweep the country in mere weeks. the pentagon spent a decade preparing to leave of gaston, and even they weren't ready for this. together with our eyes, we will complete our mission bear. by the end of this year, i announced a timeline for drawing down our forces. we are working to finally and america's longest war, his time ended for evermore. america's proudest movement of the afghan war wasn't supposed to be a humiliating evacuation under the guns of the taliban. but it was there is absolutely nothing else to celebrate. the united states ended 20 years of war in afghanistan, the longest war and american history. we completed one of the biggest air lives in history, with more than 120000 people evacuated to safety. no nation,
4:23 am
no nation has ever done anything like it in all history. the only the united states had the capacity to will in billings to do it. and we did it today. where was the afghan army? where was the west and backed government? where did all the money go? the united states sunk more than a $100000000000.00 into rebuilding of data stock for reference adjusted for inflation. that is more than the united states spent on the marshal blad, to rebuild europe after world war 2. and the tragedy of it is that for a civilian the side from all the american weapons and the taliban hads berries almost no evidence that any of that money ever passed through here from broken roads that lead to nowhere to abandoned hospitals from twisted contractors and corrupt leaders of janice duncan arguably be called the largest money laundering
4:24 am
operation in human history. the united states is also committed to playing a leading role in the reconstruction of afghanistan. ah ah. ah. the taliban now has more black hawk helicopters than 85 percent of the countries in the world. ah, how kinda and isis k still exist in our growing and afghanistan, and eventually they acquire these weapons.
4:25 am
ah, we have americans stuck in afghanistan, towel van in charge. the smoke more weaponry they've ever had in the past of order that is, of the taliban now controls more of the country than it did before. the us invaded its new government this field with one dynamo, bay inmates, and theresa magi, dean, who even have american bounties on their heads. what washington achieved was the absolute opposite of what had intended. the bombing at cavil airport during the evacuation epitomized the afghan war, a senseless act, devoid of reason, which needless, he cut short so many lives. we will not forgive. we will not forget. we will hunt you down to make you pay.
4:26 am
we've heard the same promise before 20 years ago when america was united and when it thought that it could change the world when it thought it was invincible. and when the people believed a president's promise more, i guess if archie couple of galveston will bank before the taliban had retaken control america, trying to support the african army with strong programs. as part of our on heard voices project, we spoke to an afghan former predator drone operator who told us he believes that the strikes he was asked to conduct lead to the loss of innocent lives. after my 1st shot i took with the 3 innocent men killed that i believe in this, and i called my mother afterwards and cried. and she told me that it was good that i felt bad about it, because if i felt good about it,
4:27 am
i would just be another psychopath. ah, anyway and in the military showed up one day and i will pay for your education if you serve for a minimum of 4 years. and how can anyone, ah, sergeant, comes down and turns around now go to the military grade, or actually since your job is to kill people and break things. so you got all these young enlisted and girls girls and guys who are out of high school, who have no experience in anything who are now basically video game snipers for months of training. made that put in the position to make these decisions. the are
4:28 am
i the 1st 3 months i was in active missions. i watched enemy forces die, or friendly forces, die enemy forced to die and then innocence, innocent people die. and so i got to see like, the impact on everybody. ah, [000:00:00;00] ah,
4:29 am
degredation the proper term. every shot that we took there cheering their congratulating each other, their high fiving each other people getting promoted because of this stuff. it's like a withering away of who you are. me when you were hunting, a man named and was all lucky. he was in a mom from pm and ah . ready i was told one day going in that president obama himself would stop and give the order himself to me. and i got this euphoric feeling. the death of the lock is a major blow to all kind of most active operational ophelia. and then his 16 year old son was killed 2 weeks later and drones when i asked some of the people that i
4:30 am
knew why they struck abdul romanella lucky. they said that because they didn't want him to come. the 1st thing that trump did in office was kill and we're lucky, 8 year old daughter. we stay with the terrorist. you have to take out their families, maybe to them, it seems practical. but to me, it seems even, ah, there was an incident involved killing of civilians. they might have been to new zealand white civilians in afghanistan. president obama got on television himself and was saying it was not the fault of intelligence or the military leadership. it was defaulted to drone operators that cause this and that really upset me because we didn't know until i felt like he was blaming me. commander in chief of the united states military was pointing a little me and saying,
