9:30 pm
any defamation case against the new york times and a phoenix priest has resigned over one word and now thousands of catholics. a baptism are being invalidated. why this could mean major trouble for couples as their marriage is now not even recognized. we're going to bring the details. i'm sky no huge. you're watching news of use huge a broadcasting from r t. america's headquarters in washington d. c. let's get today's a tough stories. ah yes i can tear of state entity blinkin has urged russia to abandon the path of war against ukraine and yet time and time again, president putin has said he has no plans for invasion. now, antony blinking, addressed the un thursday, saying the us would be relieved if russia proved them wrong. with the hope that by sharing what we know with the world,
9:31 pm
we can influence russia to abandon the path of war and choose a different path. while there's still time now, i'm mindful that some have called into question or information. recalling previous instances were intelligence ultimately did not bear out. yet that was blank and even admitting the talking points are turning out to be far from accurate. her come true. meanwhile, the western press continues to take the words of the state department, the pentagon, and the president all for face value, and without any basic fact checking, presented to them as solid truth relieved that they are de paul wise operations to william every indication we have with that well, that's just one example, but there's another that came out today. the deputy us ambassador to russia was expelled from russia on thursday. well,
9:32 pm
that's according to the us state department and their latest announcement. citing this is a sign of escalation between the 2 countries. only problem is bar gorman and his family left the country over a week ago. the escalation and coverage has a more dominant than actually the escalation aggressive actions that says of now or the mother. i don't want any of my friends to receive that devastating phone call their loved one has been killed in a war, which has nothing to do with american security. as a journalist, i owe it to those who watch the show to do the research and make sure the truth is told to be the best of what is available. this is why all this week we have tried to bring the facts and the reality of the situation crate. because unlike secretary blink and i can honestly say i am not here today to start a war, but to actually prevent a wide let's discuss. i want to bring in former naval intelligence officer, john jordan and jackson ingle, political activists, and host the dive power guys, thank you so much for joining me gentlemen. thank you for having us beer. jackson.
9:33 pm
i'm sorry, we keep hearing of these dates and times of an invasion which comes and go this next one is set for the 18th. according to us intelligence. how many of these are going to have to pass without any action happening before this is actually deemed gas? lighting well, you know, the funny thing is you just played that clip there of secretary of state blink and he made it sound like as though us intelligence has only gotten their intelligence wrong. maybe once or twice for the past several decade. but the entire operation of us intelligence is to get intelligence wrong in an effort to serve the propagandistic aims of the deep state in the united states. so i'm not. 2 you know, worried about a russian invasion so long as vladimir putin continues to make it very clear that russia is not planning to invade ukraine or anyone else. and that is what he has said repeatedly, you know, on this one, john, the actions in don back today has western media, say, look,
9:34 pm
things are escalating. but there's been fighting in this region for years with more than 10000 since 2014 it citizens. and those in the military being killed, ukraine, president said this statement, we do not need military people with foreign flags on our territory. we do not ask for this, otherwise there will be stabilization all over the world. we do not want to give an extra reason for the russian federation to say we have bases here and they need to protect themselves. so john, why has the media fall in so short and covering this side of the narrative of telling that this fighting has been going on for since 2014. and there's no difference between 5 years ago last year or even the last few weeks. well certainly though there has been the ceasefire in that part of ukraine for some period of time and has been broken. there's no reason to believe that the current shelling that got so much immediate attention today is any worse than any other on and off of skirmishes. since that sees fire was declared as for the american media,
9:35 pm
the american media is concerned. i ne, obsessed with political narratives inside of the united states in terms of propping up the president. and so they're going to, they're going to the pursuit of all else in this case, try to bang the war drum so that president biden perhaps, can declare a diplomatic victory at best. and so i, you know, i'm, i'm really says the american media is not demonstrated a lot of credibility with anything in this part of the world in some period of time . that's the thing. it takes a simple even decide to use this for a journalist perspective, a google search, and you can find out many of the things that are happy that are being said by the state department by this president are false. it doesn't take more than 5 minutes and yet there continue to follow headline right now actually says that it could very likely very high that russia is going to attack. but there's actually nothing to back that up. but it's not just democrats, it's not the my to ministration. john. yeah, i mean, another week goes by and i think this will become gas lighting. i mean,
9:36 pm
that was your 1st question. it was a great one. is another week goes by with no russian invasion, that i think it's pretty clear, there isn't going to be one president zalinski of ukraine. he is also called, urged the world to calm down about this. and also said that no war is eminence. so here you have 2 countries, the would be warring parties saying there isn't a war coming. what point does the american media choose to believe them? well, and they have to get those that are on the ground actually in ukraine, i think are actually having to admit even the ukrainians aren't freaking out about this. in fact, they're protesting their high taxes right now around the capital. not preparing for innovation, but jackson, it's not just democrats, republicans as well. today. republican louisiana said, or ted kitty said this is just to test the united states and her leadership, the russians. the chinese and iranians are all working together and watch to see how much the u. s. will allow for another country beach to be taken over for the u . s. gets involved. this was how he justified, how this back to american security,
9:37 pm
and why the u. s. should be this involving your grade. i like the sen normally, but do you agree with this? does this situation actually in ukraine regardless of where it goes, have a direct impact on us security? of course not. and, you know, one of the big things i've heard from these senators, in these representatives in the united states were talking about ukraine and the threat of invasion from russia. they continue to, you know, tell this lie that russia wants to decimate ukraine's economy. they want to stabilize the nation. well, it was the united states in 2014 who lead a who in ukraine and stripped the ukrainian people of their free speech. and it also is the united states now, who is drumming up all of this hysteria over an invasion in the war which is causing economic devastation in ukraine itself. so if us and the senators and the congress, people are the ones who are saying that russia is trying to stabilize your brain
9:38 pm
and destroy their economy. i think the u. s. is actually done, ironically, a pretty good job of that themselves. there was a ukrainian member of the parliament that came out this week and said that it's going to take roughly $10000000000.00 to try and re stabilize their economy. after all, the hysteria that is broken out in this past week, us is serving the deep state interest. they are serving the interests of the arms industry. and this is all as why them are as the lensky said, a part of a big game of diplomatic chest and political theatre. and that's what is a part of their, our lives is take it as soon as we have learned over history, we just got gas in which was 20 years vietnam 25 years. mean the he things actually do take told on live john, the talk, these false flag weren't that was the big threat today or so by the, by the ministration. i think you get that for many, you know, any sort of adventure book, a sort of fiction novel out there, but a possible fake or this real attack using chemical weapons. do you think us
9:39 pm
intelligence is just using this to buy time as a very generic? it's very broad, even though the media thing, it's specific. it's really not sure people accept this without any more evidence than what they're being given. in defense of the intelligence business and or can intelligence particular intelligence is collected for a y, where a wide range of sources and a wide range of methods, huge nets of information are dragged in. it's how that information is collected on analyzed and acted on that really matters. in this case, you have individual actors inside of the administration and inside of certain parts of congress that are cherry picking the information that comes in. remember the false story that was about the president put and putting the bounty on american soldiers and have can't stand? yes, there was just because you have intelligence on something doesn't mean it's necessarily reliable or later corroborated. but you can have as policymakers cherry picking stuff that comes in by the, literally, by the ton. and a lot of it's garbage and some of it's good. but you just can't have them cherry
9:40 pm
picking like this for political purposes. and that's what got it. that's what, that's what happened in the past and i fear is happening here. well, we had anonymous sources during the trump era. now i guess we've got intelligence source as sources and intelligence as being sort of the key cover right now for bio ministration. but i'm glad that i have the 2 of you to actually set a straight thanks for joining me. thank you for the defamation suit, filed by the former governor of alaska and vice presidential candidate, sarah palin, against the new york times. well, it's been dismissed, but questions are now arising regarding a text message that was sent to all of the jurors during the deliberation telling them the judge is already thrown out the case. but did that influence the jury decision, and will it have an effect on the appeal process? well, that's pretty legal media analysts line with this line. all i said i'm might not be the biggest fan of therapy here, but i am a big fan of media outlets being held accountable when they falsely accuse people. so let's start with this one. is this the grounds for an appeal?
9:41 pm
and how likely do you think that will be based on sarah, paler case? great question. let's look at it this way. scotty. imagine you're a juror. you're sitting in the, in the jury room. and you still have on your phone, push messages that you basically done everything not to listen to the news, but sometimes as you know, we will have a headlines to hit us. so as you're deliberating you, read, judge will dismiss this case, no matter what the jury does. okay. so you come out and i don't know why they didn't say, excuse me, georgia. we have a question. what are we doing here? did we just receive this? perhaps in correctly, but are you going to dismiss this? why are we bothering with this? okay. let's assume it didn't affect them. let's assume a did. then they appeal it. the judge said he was going to dismiss it either way.
9:42 pm
so follow this. you're going to appeal a case where a jury found allegedly independently that there was no liable. but in a case where the judge said ahead of time, i'm going to dismiss it either way. this is, i've never heard of it's, it's bizarre. it's very bizarre. that's why i think, i think i should be more more red flags, more coverage of this. you know, we're looking at sarah parents case. you know, just for our audience was covering la times, papers put out things that are just, you know, aren't true, but never held accountable for. and they might be fact checked months down the road . what about her case actually felt like she had a real place to go and try this in front of a judge and a jury and actually when, why hers different. okay, she is a public figure and we have this case new york times against sullivan, which by the way, judge justice is courses and clarence thomas said they can wait a bounce this thing because it just doesn't work anymore. but because she is
9:43 pm
a public figure in order for her to sue, she has to alleged that what was said against her was based in fact, on battery knowing, disregard a knowing a falsity. they knew what they were saying was wrong, or a reckless disregard for the truth. now, between regular people, we don't have that. you don't have to worry about that. so because of this very high burden, which i think has kind of run its course, the judge said, i don't think she proved malice because the new york times said allegedly, oops, you know, we made a mistake. we have a, a correction. so this is was going to be most probably tossed, i think, by this supreme court. because what she has to prove, scotty is not that the new york times libeled her. but that they libeled her in such a way that it was malicious. because you see, she's a public figure and as a public figure, she thrust herself into the world and she can perhaps collect a,
9:44 pm
a press conference if you wanted to attack something. i think today with social media. i think though standards are, are gone. the thing is why she labeled yes or no irrespective of who she is, they made the connection of study that she basically was responsible somehow for steve's release and these, these types of, of violent gun shootings and deaths. now either that's libelous or not, i don't care if you're sarah palin or, or sarah lee. it doesn't matter. well that, that you're right, that malice is the very emotional word these days. and as you're saying with social media, everybody can be famous in their own circles. and everybody can have in fact, i think it's the everyone get a trophy effect is what we're seeing in society right now. the question is, is there a legal. busy representation or precedent for lionel always great to chat. you. thank you. as many a suspected that your coven, 19 a test? no swab could have actually been collected for scientific data. should you be
9:45 pm
concerned as more than likely? you probably had no idea your specimen was not going into the wastebasket. been swan joined us with this story after the break. ah, ah, ah. ah. your eyes bigger forehead,
9:46 pm
smaller faces. all of these traits are very common and they're very indicative of are specifically within the filing genetic tree of life. and if we look at all of these trips in the context of continued human evolution over the last 6 to 89 years since we became up for a walk in almond. and you can kind of connect the dots and see how they may just simply be us from a future time coming back into the say, their own best. these people learn from their own experience, how vulnerable of business is to the bank. so you push the small business over the edge, pushes me right to the bankruptcy. now i realize we were good. this isn't just the back that may be involved in this is the concept. see firms? it is the lawyers, these people. gotcha. one of his stories and was gonna whistle blower tell people's marriages have broken up and they've lost their family home. it is
9:47 pm
spectacularly devastating for people's lives. they have committed suicide, but left behind, nor they explicitly state that it was the constant intimidation and billing by bank officers that lead them to. i talked to spray, i subsea these people up nor saw the san francisco police department is accused of using dna connected from right kids to lead a sexual assault victims to completely unrelated crimes. the cities district attorney is speaking out against the move. so for more on this, here's our correspondent paxton boyd. the san francisco police department is under fire, facing sharp criticism from city official, san francisco district attorney chase a bu dean,
9:48 pm
claiming the city's police department use dna collected from rape victims to identify them as possible suspects in separate crimes. booting said the woman was recently arrested for a property crime based on her years old rape kit dna practice. he calls an constitutional while police chief bill. scott says he's ordered an investigation into the allegations state senator scott winner says he's considering introducing legislation and the practice statewide. doctor katherine coleman, a clinical psychologist based in scottsdale, arizona, since the practice could dissuade sexual assault victims from coming forward to report crime. oftentimes going the route of prosecution, calling the police, going through the rape, kept going through interviews, and ultimately potentially having to testify against their perpetrator is incredibly traumatizing. and so this is just going to add another layer of what is already a difficult process for them. for our t america, i'm paxton boyd. we have lived in a life of mascot,
9:49 pm
vaccines and cobra testing for the past 2 years. when the time comes to bring life back to normal, at least superficially, we may find even then we are unable to recover something fundamental. and that thing is our privacy. for those of us worried about a world without privacy, the cdc gave us one more reason to be nervous. all that what we did on wednesday, this quote, remember that hash tag cobra, 1900 no, was test you took? well, what happened to the swab? if it was processed with a pcr test, there's a 10 percent chance that it ended up in a lab for to know mixed sequencing analysis to discuss the implications. we welcome investigative journalist been swan. ben, thanks for joining me. yeah, thanks for me. okay, so there's this 10 percent chance are swabs are being used for genetic testing. what does this mean exactly? why does it raise privacy concerns? well, what does it mean? first of all, that there's a 10 percent chance it means 10 percent of all these nasal swabs. around the
9:50 pm
country were sent off to labs around the world for genome testing. right. so it's, it's 100 percent chance for some people that these labs are holding their nasal swabs. and what does that actually mean? what with genome testing, what the cdc is saying is like, these labs are essentially going to look at coven. they're going to trace the genome behind coban. they're going to be able to determined about of the condition of future variance of coven, as we continue to live with coven, i guess, into infinity. and so this is, the idea here is, is, it's genome. heston is good for all of us, but there's a lot of problems with this. got the biggest problem of all is that when people went in to get those p c r tests, as you did as i did as the entire country did, and most people around the world did, no one said to them, by the way, when we're done with this nasal swab, and we determined whether you are covert positive or not. we're going to send it off to a lab and they're going to keep it. and then they're going to actually run tests and, and geno mapi with and what else they might do with it. we don't know, because even though the cdc would say, wow, it's not, you know,
9:51 pm
really dna that's being collected in hell, we don't know if that's true or not. in fact, there's been no evidence whatsoever about what else might be done with this other than genome testing. well, another thing you don't have to wonder why is to say to see tweeting about this now and why don't we hear about this? and i think that's part of the reason why people have a lot of weary about these sorts of things. i think that's a very fair question. why is it taking you so long? it's been almost 2 years of testing that's been going on. and i love how the cdc says, you know, if it's connected to a p c r test, who was getting a nail swab that wasn't connected to a p c r test, that's what often it was, walter centrally were for. and then of course you had this other issue, right, which is that it really comes down to surveillance. and you mentioned this about privacy, right? and the idea that whether you're in the government or whether you're in the scientific community, there seems to be this dismissal of anybody's concerns about the fact that their information, whether it be dna information, whether it be health information is all basically in the public. it's basically
9:52 pm
being used and utilized and catalog for her. however, some unnamed person or bureaucrats sees fit. again, where's the accountability here where a person who goes in says, i didn't sign off on that. i didn't agree to it. in fact that you had told me at the time that my p c r test would be, it was at 10 percent chance it was going to be sent off to a lab someplace. i probably would have declined taking that test. that's in the lack of transparency been i think people kind of scratch their hadn't go. where else are you doing this real quick before i let you know, we talk about how people try to avoid dna testing. kids 23 and me and 5th street. i come ever since reports of merge of the information falling into the wrong hands. do you think there's that same concern regarding this? oh absolutely. there should be the same concerned about this. and why is that? well, 1st of all, because 23 in me isn't up front and transparent about what they're doing with that d. n a information. and again, the, the cdc has not explicitly said there is no connection to the individual from which
9:53 pm
this was originally taken. they have not said that. now there are some people in the media who are speculating that, oh, that's not really how genome testing works. i agree with them. that's not how genome testing works. what we don't know though is what else is being done with it . and can you directly trace back the clinics of these came from and the individuals that they belong to at one point? and here's the other question. is the number actually higher than 5 to 10 percent? is it even higher than that? we don't know because when you are not transparent up front, people have a very hard time trusting you on the back end. and if it's a very big question, if we ever find out it would be months for now. by then, people might be moved on to another subject. thanks for joining me, ben. thank you. there in arizona priest has resigned or failing to use the correct word when baptizing members of his church. and for this reason, the catholic church claims all the baptism he's conducted are invalid. but is it really so well are to correspond it natasha sweet?
9:54 pm
take the look. many believers would argue that having a relationship with god gives meaning to life. but once you involve man in anything including religion, it becomes imperfect. the diocese of phoenix is making a huge announcement on its website. it says we are sending to announce some difficult information regarding baptism performed by reverend andries. or ringo. after careful, steady, it has been determined that the form or words father andre is used for the sacrament of baptism has been incorrect in all of the baptisms. he has performed until june, 17th of 2021, our presumed invalid, and all just came down to a difference of one word. it turns out that this priest in phoenix indeed was using this formula of we baptize you as opposed to i baptize you. and about a can says those types of baptisms are simply invalid and have to be re done the right way. and despite the vatican's ruling on the matter foreseen, we instead of i, members of the congregation were still sad to see him go. this is one of those
9:55 pm
things around like he truly did not mean it with bad intentions. and i feel like it's one of the things that can be forgiven if you don't want to forgive him, i truly understand. but then why take him away from the parish that he loves and cares for that he has grown definitely hard to say good bye. but the glass mouth. so he really didn't wanna leave taking, but there was quite a turn out the standing ovation of the prisoners at least 10 o'clock where i was. they had signs out front wishing him well and saying good bye. and just a real outpouring of love to say good bye to him. ringo has been performing baptisms in arizona for 16 years before that he was in san diego and also brazil. it's. i don't have any baptisms. were affected by the incorrect freezing diocese of phoenix said if a baptism is invalid, other catholic sacraments received by a person may have to be repeated after he or she receives a valid baptism in an open letter or
9:56 pm
a wrangle. apologize for his miss announces resignation. effective february, 1st, and pledge to dedicate his energy and full time ministry to help those affected. and despite the error, some church members have launched a petition asking that ranko stay on as pastor of their parish. i spoke to some christians not connected to the catholic church off camera, and they say this is laughable. that salvation comes from believing in jesus and getting baptized is a mere ceremony to celebrate what you already believe, reporting from los angeles and hottest sweets r t. well, this brings us to the close of today's show. i want to continue this conversation all of our stories to tweet me at scottie and hughes hash tag team and the h. and until we see you again, i am counting on you stay happy. se healthy. stay informed, thanks for watching. ah, ah, ah,
9:57 pm
ah, more than 20 years have passed since one of the worlds deadliest terrorist attacks the to thousands of lives, people started to scream. there was a wave that came off for us. that was like opening up an oven door, but not all wounds of heel. the survivors respond does have increased rates of cancer and other health issues. due to the dust and chemicals they inhaled. coming in to get my blood cleaned out by the metals a lot of blood cutting in like what? in terms of 1st responder was, well over a 100001st responders. and there was some estimates that tend to 20 percent still have to yes. so on the cheese, full recovery, it's my wife patricia the minute i have with family friends i thought i was home
9:58 pm
before is really almost appreciate life. ah bring you the very latest every hour the day. this is all. no fun. everyone here at home with talking at cross purposes. this is at the heart of the west narrative, claiming russia plans to invade you crepe. from the russian perspective, ukraine is a symptom of a much larger issue with nato's relentless drive east. where there is a solution though securing for all
