2:00 am
savage, i do not to think portal active so know the best say little this of the by way. i mean, he can see the final goal of these theme or of allusions to ensure that there are no independent players in the world anymore. the reason is munoz carlos imagine if you speak russian, keep your voice down while out and about. so when i give up, if i go for x perspectives, don't put your human symbols on display, the decision space reach the guide. so you guys don't talk to strangers, the void noisy gatherings in valleys, which was really for sure me know what i she gave me your colleagues and perhaps also your friends. think your guilty because your russian let you know the boom. so
2:01 am
what can i do? i'm the was mind, see if it's all a detail. glad to which is the team that does the styles we did is be a good fit. you know, you're going to be able to conceptually find specific story shortly concerning the, the power buddy. i'm rick sanchez. i've been doing news now for 30 years to languages all over the world. here in the us, interviewed for president, started a $1000000000.00 business. i believe new should be honest, direct, and impactful. this is direct impact the the oh is and who isn't profiting from the war in ukraine?
2:02 am
well, as we've pointed out before, and frankly, as we could possibly have pointed out, and just about them that our government and its allies in the media have pushed on us. we are not profiting. and by we, i mean, i mean, you and me and the american people we are not profiting. as i've reported before, the 10s of billions of dollars being spent on a country that most of us could barely find out a map a year ago. could have been used to build thousands of schools here in america or bridges, new roads right here. it could provide a needed health care for me actually, the other one. it could have done a lot of things, but it hasn't. in fact, even though it is our money, yes, money taken out of your paycheck, my paycheck, we're not getting it. it's not going to us. so then who is really benefiting from?
2:03 am
that's an important question, right? the answer again, as we pointed out, is pretty clear. in the counsels of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence. weatherstone orleans on by the military industrial complex that is president dwight d eisenhower. a world war to general, no less warning congress, not to let the companies that make bombs, and bullets and more bombs become to power mach or c. that's what he said. let me listen to those words on that january 17th. 1961. speech in the counsels of government, we most guard against the acquisition of on warranted influence whether shocked or on saw by the military industrial complex. and what
2:04 am
is the military industrial complex union of defense contractors and the armed forces. they should need to be kept a part they need to be separated and who should do that? eisenhower said, never let them come together. who was eisenhower speaking to when he said that though when he building speech really nobody expected that from this guy was a general on the way out. and he that's what he said, be careful. this crap is going to ruin our government. if we let it happen, said that before he left office. and what was he talking to? he was talking to congress. he was talking to congress. he want to make sure that our law makers didn't allow the money and the grade that always seems to come along with more to get out of control. so here's the question. did congress listen?
2:05 am
did they listen? well, or finding out now when we look even now at this situation that's going on in ukraine, is that not only did they not listen to generalize in our president eisenhower is play, they actually recommend just the opposite event. we're finding out the many members of congress are personally profiting from the war and ukraine by buying stocks and defense companies and then, and they're doing so with what looks like. well, what the hell also, i'm going to call it inside information. see, after voting this more weapons to ukraine, or knowing that they're about to vote to send more weapons to ukraine. they buy stocks in the companies that will make profits off the weapons that are being sent to your trade. cuz they're the companies that may go. edmonds, they know those defense companies are going to be profitable, and that's exactly what happens. a number of members of congress, of actively traded defend stocks, admits the rush hour ukraine war, one such
2:06 am
a fender, representative john rutherford. the students from florida, according to business insider the purchase, thousands of dollars worth of raytheon stock. the day russia went into ukraine in a tweet that same day. rutherford contended that the united states should leave nothing off the table in regard to russia. rutherford's twin indicates he would vote for more arms to ukraine while he was also buying stock in companies that may be odd. and he said to us in our l. busy must impose the maximum possible sanctions and leave nothing off the table. then there's uh congressman curt schraner. according to congress trading dot com trader purchased stopped and waited almost a month before he even disclosed it. you're supposed to tell people when you buy stock, any stock you didn't even tell anybody. marjorie taylor green g above stock and lockheed martin february 27. here's what's interesting about this though with green green, we should note has been very critical of wars and places like iraq and afghanistan
2:07 am
. so why would she say one thing? but then cash in or do another with this situation and ukraine? look, you think maybe they just can't help themselves. is it possible that members of congress simply can't help themselves? after all, i mean, they get a foreign policy news and decisions before the rest of us have any idea of what the hell is going to happen. the question is, should they be allowed to trade in profit from that and especially for the wars moore's. the answer apparently is why not? nobody seems to care. because there's at present no actual law at least not without teeth. yeah. there's the stock law or act with teeth now stopping them from buying stocks. not even in companies that they know are going to increase revenues because of their vote, their vote. and not even in companies that will make money from wars
2:08 am
as well. joining us now to talk about this a little bit more is uh, the host of the critical our video. sputnik garland mix and what a great opportunity this is for you and i to have a conversation. hey, thanks for inviting me, rick. great. talk to you again. this is important stuff. what, what do you make of these guys? i think according to the last count that i have received, looking at my new members of congress presently are buying defense stocks and companies that are arming ukraine while voting to arm ukraine's. and you know, it, unfortunately, it makes sense sense to me, if you recall, shortly after the lockdown started with the pen demik, it was, it was soon found out that a number of members of congress when they found out that they, that, that, uh the co. yeah. on a virus was here before they did anything else. they immediately sold their stocks and called the rich friends and told them to get rid of their stocks. there were investigations and no one was held to account. no one was charged with any crime.
2:09 am
so what we have is a complete lights the while, while western congress, there's no accountability whatsoever. well, i mentioned the stock act. so there is a law that they pass that says if ever you or your family or your kids, your wife, for certain people buy a stock, you have to report it, especially if it's something that you've been investigating for example. but here's, here's the thing. nobody does anything about it. we find out all the time that they're doing this and there's no penalty. there's no castigation. and here's what's worse that i found out you're ready for this. you know what the penalty is if they catch you $200.00. right? so you know, the 1000000 you make a $100000.00 on a trade and you have to pay a penalty of $200.00 really. exactly. and so here's the thing. it's kind of reminds me. do you remember? okay, i have to go backwards. the, remember the game stop controversy? yeah. where they found out that the stock market illegally stopped trading. it was
2:10 am
illegal, but no one was held accountable. so what we have when it comes to the ruling elite to leave congress, which is an obvious manifestation of the ruling elite, is that the laws are only there to give the appearance of propriety to give the appearance that they're trying to hold each other to accountable but if they're not, no one's going to act. and even if you get caught $200.00, you just made $200000.00. i'll take that deal all day. but here's the thing. i happen to be an officer or have been in a privately trade in a publicly traded company. if i did that, if i bought stock with material non public information, that's what it's called. if i was to act on material non public information, my boss goes to jail right away, by the way, as a regular guy. now maybe about some big wig city or some of those other institutions. i could probably get away with it. but the fact that i would go to jail and he would go to jail to but yeah, these guys don't just seems horribly wrong again because nobody is there to hold
2:11 am
them account who's going to police the policeman. so you have congress, they're, they're all making a fortune. it's easy money. how easy is that for you to know what you know, how you're going to vote? they know it, keep in mind if you've ever been around capital, which i have the discussions that are going on for the next action that they're going to take is going on for maybe weeks, maybe even months ahead of time, so long before they make a decision on the next purchase or whatever it's going to happen. they kind of can see the direction that, that, that it's going. so it's just such easy money for them. they're all doing it. they're sitting around. that's why people come in congress. they make a $17290000.00 a year. and then 10 years later there were $20000000.00. how do you do that? well, uh, i told you there were a team right now who apparently are doing this in when it comes to the ukraine war as bad as this is, i think it's worse with the war situation. yeah, i mean you're, you're, you're literally a, you're, you're,
2:12 am
you're having of an action which you may be profiting off, which could end up sending my son or my daughter to lose their life in some, in, in some country that maybe i didn't want them to go to the other thing is latoya and with a country russia, in this case that has more nuclear warheads and we do, we're playing with fire. this is, this is potentially and i say this to. busy my friends that i don't think enough of us in this country understand this. we're, we're, we're, we're, we're pushing the envelope on what could turn into something bigger. like maybe even a world war 3 situation. i mean, i don't think i'm exaggerating when i say that. i mean if, if it's true that we have and they don't have boots on the ground inside you grain, are we fighting russian soldiers and is this what these guys are making money off of? i don't want that right? exactly. yeah, i mean, to put it, frankly, this isn't extinction level event. the actual outcome that the new,
2:13 am
the neo cons in washington dc say they're out and the outcome they're looking for is regime change in russia. terror rush, you a part total defeat of russia, as we know russia, as would be the united states or any other nuclear power. if russia is facing destruction, you know what they're going to do. they're going to push the button and we will order anyone else. so their actual, the actual outcome that they are seeking would be the destruction of all human costs, and they're getting paid off of it. the corruption of this, though is what makes me angry, more than anything else. are we more corrupt now than we've ever been? you think i can see, you know, i think so. i think so, part of it is that if you look at the neo liberal um system, the, the, the financial ization of the western system has created a dynamic where people are making money on things other than industry. you're talking about, like, crony rival in damages. now each are of what they do. in fact, before these, this conflict started,
2:14 am
it was constantly reported on the ukraine was the most corrupt country in the world . i would argue that's one of the reasons they selected. it's okay with the oh in there that is corrupt country. perfect. they can go in there on a former c, i a cheese, a 100 bucks, and they went in there and they made a fortune, and now they're still getting paid. so you're saying the reason we protect ukraine is because what they remind us of ourselves. well, there's something more insidious i'm talking about. i'm talking about, i'm talking about corruption in this country, right? i'm seeing the politicians, the media. everybody seems to have sold out in the other, but i think that i think these things are inexplicably linked in that one of the, the, the things that's going on with ukraine is if they're 2 things. yeah, they're making money now. but i believe there are a lot of politicians who have real dirty hands and there are people over there that can say, well, you know, 100 button or whoever it was over here. they did this and that. so to some extent, because control ukraine. but i will guarantee you there's people in ukraine that
2:15 am
have enough corruption in dirt that they could take some of the people down here. let's not forget, they're telling us, we've got to give money to ukraine so they can buy tanks and things like that. and they're in investing in a crack in crypto scam. yeah. and then the money is coming right back into the democratic party. yeah. so i would imagine there are people over there that can finger some.
