10:00 pm
ah ah, i have given the order to open fire and kill terrorists without warning. the conduct president claims 20000 extremists have attacked the country's biggest city amid a deadly anti government address. now thank to allies including russia for sending in peace keeper. russia slammed harsh rhetoric by the u. s. secretary of state as hypocritical. that's after anthony blinked and says it could be hard to make russia lead covered down when addressing the presence of russian peacekeepers in the region under the p. f t. l alive also the price of bitcoin, plummet, 10 percent after an internet outage in kazakhstan, takes out a huge share of the world's crypto mining operation. those are your headlines. i'll be back in just under an hour of time with another look. stay with us. is our international
10:01 pm
ah! now that you have dragged the christmas tree out to the curb vacuum, figuratively, otherwise, pine needles in the carpet will feel like booster jabs if you're barefoot. as 2021 challenges roll over to 2020 to the people we have introduced you to here in the past year. inform our year ahead. if we confront our challenges rather than just argue about them. example pain at the pomp we're all feeling it sore head, biden. critics, why? and that he's shut down the pipeline. progressive talker, john elliot, explains otherwise. most people don't know. there is a keystone pride. why right now? it runs from the alberta tar sands, due east to winnipeg, and then due south to the gulf. that's it, it already it's operating now the other one would go on an angle from the alberta.
10:02 pm
tar sands right down towards the middle of the 3 and then slightly south, and then directly due south to houston. what most people also don't know is not a drop of the canadian oil, when refined in houston will be used in the united states of america. it is a 100 percent for export. as far as the number of jobs, yes, there would be a number of jobs, especially on in indian country, which is always popular. there be a number of jobs created while doing the construction. but once the construction is complete, the maintenance will be under $900.00 people, $900.00 people. if general motors decided to move a plant, we're talking thousands of people and people say, gee, that's a bummer, that they lost their job. these are not people losing their jobs. these are people that don't have these jobs, but just won't be able to get that mobile have to go elsewhere to work. this pandemic has been a stressful stretch for all of us. here's social worker, penny collins. kids are extremely resilient,
10:03 pm
so it's not really it's been valuable to have them home with us leaving going in our house. but the kids are going to remember this largely as an adventure. and the people are most worried about are women. so mothers are taking on their work load more than ever. moms are leaving the workforce in droves. jobs that were seen last belong to women. they're taking on at home schooling, they're taking on more emotional labor in the household. and your mom to always make those kodak moments for their kids, no matter what, at any cost. so the kodak moments aren't going down for our kids because we won't really allow it as, as moms. the question for me is that i'm asking is, what is the cost for women? it seems like the grown ups are more stress than the kids is that they're i think that there, and i think that's the way it's supposed to be. you know, we want to,
10:04 pm
we want to protect our children, we want to guard against them being stressed out and being overwhelmed, being anxious if we can keep our kids on these nicely routines. if we can minimize the screen time, get them outside, put down the phone to dinner. you know, this is all routine advice that i would give. and i think it is even more important now. i just think we have to have make room to have grade for ourselves in each other that it's also a really hard time to achieve these best case scenario. 3 quarters of school teachers are women, and many of them are mothers, dr. lisa moser, host of the supportive teacher taught podcast, says synchronizing their work and personal schedules has been extremely stressful. probably your biggest concern is having your students on the same schedule, the same timeframe as you are your own children and that is not always the case.
10:05 pm
there are some locations and i do speak with teachers that are teacher peer support group all across the country. and so if you're in a program where it is going monday, wednesday and friday. but you've got children at home that are going to school on tuesday and thursday. that is the biggest headache that i'm hearing is that sometimes we're looking at a teacher, is it a teacher? doesn't have a family. that's real threat. we are learning to live with coven consensus among doctors. you have seen us interview here, is that like the flu? this corona virus will be and demick, meaning that like the flu. it's an annual jav with vaccines tweaked to the latest variance and mutations. they call this a novel virus because it's like nothing we've experienced before. and clearly it is learning us slightly faster than we are learning. yes. as alma cron proliferates, we ask new york psychotherapists, nancy collier,
10:06 pm
how to brace for the dread of another possible lockdown. i don't think we need dred, i think it's fair to say it feels like there's a potential for disappointment. right? but if this virus has taught us any, it is that we don't know. so the idea that we're all going to go back in and it's going to be more deadly than these are all. what is we don't know. we're just at the beginning stages of understanding this, it may be that our, our vaccines work, or that it may be that this particular strain doesn't make us very sick. right? so what is on the positive side are just just possible. so one thing we've learned to cove it is we know nothing, live this moment. the present moment that's about all we get as and
10:07 pm
see as many of us got during the shut down, some prefer now to hash tag, stay home. we asked the author in university of washington, socio ologist, dr. nick kabir, re about those among us. we hear called cavers cavers are really finding comfort in the indoors because the outdoors now seems a lot more uncertain. our social harmony has been disrupted. social rules have changed, there's a lot of, there's less integration, socially with other people. and so it's really kind of not clear how we're supposed to relate. and it's really comfortable to stay at home where things feel a lot less uncertain, and more clear. and the social interaction isn't as confusing. we are social creatures, we need social norms to tell us how to interact, what to do, what to decide. we are social norms, create social order for us and,
10:08 pm
and all those norms are changing. we have very different rules of engagement now and a very from region to region. i mean they have to vary from friend to friend. and with that kind of uncertainty, it becomes, it feels a little more risky to make decisions outside of the home. it makes everything feel a little bit more difficult and yes, there is something that idea associated with uncertainty always. but as social creatures, without this firm kind of social, normative fabric that holds us together, that's very clear that integrates us without that. it's really hard to know what to do, what to say. here's enough to make you want to hunker down another week, another mash shooting and every time a gun nuts strikes, guns, sales spike. if you are thinking about buying a firearm. tom gresham from gun talk dot com has what may be surprising advice.
10:09 pm
frankly, at buying a firearm for sell protects is not for everyone. if you're not gonna make a commitment to safety and to ongoing training, i would encourage you to perhaps reconsider. but for those who want to get a guide, my suggestion is to go get a class 1st, get little training because you don't really know what you need and you don't know what you're going to like until you've had chance to shoot a lot of ranges. will allow you to read guns and try them. what i suggest is that you call arrange, arranged for an instructor, get some one on one time with instructor and say look, could you bring 3 or 4 guns, or could i rent some guns from you? and then figure out what works for you. unfortunately, typically a lot of women want to get a small gun, something that feels good in their hands. but the physics out to dictate the small guns recoil more, they kick a lot, and they're uncomfortable, and they're harder to shoot. and they might, may find that something they're just
10:10 pm
a little bit larger, actually works better for them. recently china conducted a hypersonic missile test. the joint chiefs chairman general, mark, milly called us sputnik moment. we asked geo political strategist, john said ladies of trilogy advisors, if this advances the nuclear doomsday clock. i've been what's most surprising about china's rise again? they've been open about their ambitions, but it's how fast they've been able to accomplish these stunning technical achievements. hypersonic glide vehicle. yes, that in and of itself is general milli said is quite the technological feet. but we want to be careful that we're not overawed in our reactions because the united states still fields 2000 nuclear warheads on c launched ballistic missiles on a fleet of nuclear submarines that fell around the world every day of the year. from anywhere around the world were able to strike a retaliatory strike that's necessary. in the event of a 1st strike from china,
10:11 pm
we have a nuclear deterrent that is extraordinarily effective. so what i think is going to come out of this is, this is probably going to make nuclear war less likely in the future, given that china is building up its 2nd strike ability. the problem is it could make conventional war over taiwan or another hotspot, more likely, if all the great powers fear that there is no serious trip wire to a nuclear exchange. there is happening, your news up there in space. historic milestones on the mission now searching for life on mars. also coming up information that could save your life. this is the big picture on our to you america. ah, robin by dreamer shapes bankers and those with
10:12 pm
dares sinks. we dare to ask and stacy are in mexico and re heading south and we're getting closer and closer to the epicenter, the global sensor point now of the big coin for revolution. while our officers are facing an increasingly dangerous environment, we are seeing a growing debate about so called warrior cops. the term that i've heard in the militarization of police this is an amor vehicle we acquired through the 1033
10:13 pm
program, very free program and the government program that follows military property that is no longer use to local law enforcement. we're building an army over here and i can't believe the people. i see a thing of terrorism here because it again, a feeling that ahead you have to deal with our practice. who you putting in the uniform of the bed is a powerful thing. and sometimes it's like money in play tricks and people mind they think they go bad knows the walk is out the door very bad. johns are coming. good news. you have job security because the world desperately needs that you have a wrong one. i just don't know. i mean you world yes, to shape out disdain because of the african and engagement. it was the trail.
10:14 pm
when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah, it states it has to be rash, to be able to afford any time in front of the luxury that for sure. despite having the most expensive health care system in the world, we have poor life expectancy. we have higher infant mortality. we have more deaths from treatable causes, so americans are suffering every day from it. it's as if these people don't count. i saw how they can choose their customers and dump a sick, hauling tone also right and satisfying their wall street investors.
10:15 pm
no parents should have to see what i saw. if you're denying payment for someone's care, your make life and death decisions and determine to get to live and who dies to me . that's best getting away with murder. ah, this had to be the selfie of the year. it's the shadow of and shot from the ingenuity drone helicopter on the surface of mars. and here is actual video, not a nasa. animation of ingenuity is take off and landing this 1st flight was 3 meters, about 10 feet up and down and lasted 30 seconds. and i'll,
10:16 pm
i'll permit our data. i put it in a 3rd floor. in this firstlight, concurrent slide boulevard, eric announced another planet, the images and video perseverance of sending back are stunning. and now for the 1st time, we can hear maurice turn up your volume. because the martian atmosphere is so thin that what you're about to hear will be faint. but listen to the wind. with mars mission continues author and veteran space journalist john disney explains that yes, we are looking for signs of life on mars, but don't expect a little e t to pop out from behind a rock. these are one cell will organisms, they were the 1st forms of life on earth. and when you explore mars nasa's idea is
10:17 pm
you follow the water. so yes, this jethro crater looks from orbit like it would be a great place that once could have been a lake, might have had water. the curiosity rover already established, the nutrients are there, if life was to form and to develop. so it's like, you know, the ever, the pieces are in place, and hopefully scientists think that the perseverance rover is going to then see, did any microbes actually develop and other science of those? that would be amazing if that were to be discovered on this mission. if we've learned one thing in the last year plus it's that anything could happen. what if you have a car accident or breakdown or you get stuck in a snow storm? what if you have a medical emergency? crime is everywhere. what if you're assaulted by a stranger or at home?
10:18 pm
what if your home itself has an emergency? hey, when we get in an elevator, we expect to get out. what f after being cooped up for a year plus we're eager for the great outdoors. what if you get last while you're hiking? john raimie is founder and ceo of the prepared dot com. it's a great read that could literally save your life. john, when i say property is a lot of people, picture the john, malcolm, which character in the movie read paranoia, the agora, forbes stacking canned goods and ammunition and seller. but that's the caricature, isn't preparedness. first and foremost, state of mind. yeah. well said it's, it's a lot less about bunkers and bullets, and more about how you think about your life and how you think about the risks around you. we think that prepping is part of being a responsible adult,
10:19 pm
just like having health insurance, car insurance, anything else we just recited a list of personal woes that could be fall any of us at any moment. but there were also looming threats on a societal level. think a gradual decline as opposed to sudden disasters, for instance, who thinks we can ever pay off trillions in national debt. but john, can a person adequately prepare for the havoc of complete economic meltdown? well, you touched on a very important point, which is this kind of outdated stereotype idea of a doomsday proper, where they're only focusing on these fantastical black swan events like an asteroid hitting or a walking dead type scenario. those are obviously very unlikely. what's far
10:20 pm
more likely is that we have more of the slow decline that you're talking about. so whether it's things like the climate crisis or income inequality, pick your topic. we're already seeing the kind of slow decline. it's unlikely that it's going to be a situation where everything's great and then all of a sudden we've all regressed into being hunter gatherers. so when you ask about how do you prepare for a sudden in total economic collapse, if it truly was a sell a sudden and total economic class, the world's not going to be doing very well. what's more likely and what you can more easily prepare for are the types of issues that we're seeing today. wealth inequality, people's too many people in this country living hand to mouth. we've obviously seen a lot of the economic pain over the last year from covered. those are things that you can prepare for on a personal level. so people that took reasonable steps even just things like having
10:21 pm
a 6 month emergency fund and a little bit of food on hand. those people survived this coated disruption and how it had it. ripple effects through the economy. they survived a lot easier. it really is a game of inches and you're right about the food. i still scoff when fox news or talk radio has these commercials about buying gold. just in case i got to think you'd be better off buying cans of tuna fish, because if everybody's trying to sell gold, it's going to be worth much less. and to your point about climate change, the footage we're seeing from guatemala, which has been whacked by hurricanes and floods, is heartbreaking. no wonder these people are fleeing north. so the, the stuff that's creeping up on us is pretty scary. tell me if i got this number wrong because it looked huge to me, you wrote that we have lost 250000 years worth of skills and less
10:22 pm
than 100 years. here's the quote from your website. for 250000 years, humans had to learn and practice how to survive even 100 years ago, most people knew enough of the basics to survive in an emergency or off the grid. your grand parents could probably cook from scratch, start a fire clean of fish and repair a broken clothing. can you, john? 3 park question. take your time on this. what would we be ill prepared? not to have stashed in a closet or in the basement or in the attic. what should go in the bug out bag we can grab if we have to quickly flee our homes. and what should be in the duffel bag we keep in the trunk of the car. yeah, great questions. first and foremost, you touch on an important point, right?
10:23 pm
having food is a lot more important than having gold. we often say that modern prepping is a lot more about beans and band aids than bunkers and bullets. and to the point about grandparents, right my, my grandparents could do all those things. they could, can food and clean efficient, take care basic medical emergencies without spending thousands of dollars at the emergency room. now this isn't pure installed your right life is pretty good to day . but there are certain skills that i think we have kind of subsidized out of our psyche the last few decades. if i'm out in the wilderness and i need to drink water, do i know how to find water? do i know how to make it safe? do i know how to navigate without google those are just cor life skills that are a good idea to have no matter how wonderful technology is or how society is progressing. now in terms of steps to take to prepare
10:24 pm
the 1st thing that we say to people is physical health and financial health. because those are the most likely disruptions that your to face in your life. a medical emergency financial distress. so right off the bat before you even think about even food necessarily. do you have a few months of an emergency rainy day fund? we saw with covered for example, that the worse shape you were in, like if you were obese, the more susceptible you were to severe complications from cove it. so from a certain perspective, your physical health was a prep for a pandemic. once you've got a decent physical health and financial health foundation and actually getting into the kind of proper stuff,
10:25 pm
your 1st goal is to be able to survive in your house for at least 2 weeks on your own. no utilities, no outside help. now things used to be talked about is like a 72 hour kit or 3 days. we've seen in plenty of recent examples, even just with natural disasters, things don't get back to normal within 3 days. so the modern advice is that 2 weeks . imagine all of a sudden the lockdown happens. do you have to go out and get food and water for it and toilet paper for 2 weeks? or can you just go in your home, lock the doors and survive there for 2 weeks? so that means water, one gallon of per one gallon per person per day. you can even put them in little containers like this. put them in a closet, put them under your bed piece of cake. do you have enough pear shop, staple food for 2 weeks. do you have medications for 2 weeks? do you have daily hygiene stuff?
10:26 pm
do you have the ability to communicate or get radio signals without the grid? basic things like that. once you've hit that milestone, you can survive in your house for 2 weeks. that's when we start to talk about a bug out bag. now a bug out bag is not this fantastical. walking through the waste land in doomsday. mad max with a shock on over your shoulder kind of thing. a book out bag is just an emergency kit that is in a backpack form. so think of it as your basic emergency kit. it's just put in a backpack so that if you have to suddenly leave your home, you can and you don't have to be thinking, oh, where's the documents? where's my money? for example, with wildfires on the west coast, there are plenty of stories where even though people thought the fire was in the neighborhood over, they wake up at 3 in the morning with an old orange glow outside their bedroom
10:27 pm
window and asked to leave right away, get the kids get the pack packed leave. will you have the basics covered? you asked about bags in the car and so on. people build those different ways, but yeah, like let's say you work 30 minutes away from home and a disaster happens or 911 happens or whatever. do you have comfortable shoes to walk home like people and to walk a whole day home in new york after 911? do you have maps so that if you don't have navigation so on, and you may have seen this same message elsewhere? possibly as a poster or a t shirt. it reads, we believe black lives matter. love is love, feminism is for everyone. no human being is illegal. science is real. and be kind to all. and here's another sign, someone posted on social media. it's a look alike intended as
10:28 pm
a parody. it reads in this house, we believe biden stole the election, found she can't be trusted. bill gates is not a doctor. hillary belongs in prison. epstein didn't kill himself. media is propaganda. so the more things change, the more they stay the same, but it doesn't have to be that way. yeah. we simply question more. ah
10:29 pm
ah i oh, is your media a reflection of reality in the world transformed what will make you feel safe? tice elation for community. are you going the right way?
10:30 pm
or are you being led somewhere? direct. what is true? wharf is great. in the world corrupted, you need to descend so join us in the depths or remain in the shallows. oh, this isn't an orphanage. oh, even so, says he children have been cared for at the fountains house or baffled mu. i. yeah, i yeah, courtney mash ma'am with much and he said you new senior center. nice. me go much on the middle of the nation. ah, national.
