tv   Direct Impact  RT  October 21, 2023 12:30pm-1:01pm EDT

12:30 pm
as to language is all over the world, and right here in the good old usa interviewed for president's work and for us major television networks, i think, i think new should be honest and direct and impactful. and this is direct impact. the i want to talk about r f k jr, or of k, jr, is convinced that his uncle and his dad were likely killed for their believes and even suggest that it was a government hit him and talks about having to protect himself. because he worries these days, but his own safety. this guy is the newest phenomenon, politically unlike his uncle did in vietnam, he questions the intentions of our military industrial complex and suggests, for example, that we actually go to russia into going into ukraine. it is because of comments
12:31 pm
like those and others that he seems to be dis sized. i mean, despised by the establishment and corporate media for robert f. kennedy junior said that mainstream media pundits hate him so much. they may cover him more negatively than former president donald trump. let's watch. it's interesting to me because i've been really, you know, swam in a way that i think is on present money even more than, than president trump was. i'm just by the main street by the corporate media, mainly because of it r f k junior has the highest favorable ratings of any politician running for president. right now. he's viewed favorably by 49 percent of respondents on favorably by 30 percent. according to the recent forms pull, that means he has
12:32 pm
a net favorable. the delta right is 19 points. 19 points is this favorability rating, present abide and has a negative anywhere between $9.11. favorability rating. the confront rather donald trump has a negative 10 point favorability rating negatives. mr. kennedy's most important favorable is maybe among those high powered influencers that we've been hearing about lately and, and i'll give you some examples of what's going on with this type. baubles are supporting and it includes uh, former twitter c o jack dorsey, social capital founder chum up probably about 2 and a venture capitalist, david sax, billionaire, twitter owner e law most has even hosted him for some twitter spaces discussions. and then though, there's, there's anti cobit vaccine stats for which democrats are really going after him. thank you, miss chapman. this gentleman respectfully requested that you rescind mister
12:33 pm
kennedy's invitation to be appear here due to his repeated and very recent statements that spread dangerous anti semitic. and anti is and conspiracy theories and attempted to move into executive session because house will prohibit public testimony. that's grades or the famous people is reckless rhetoric helped fuel insights and medic, incidents with for the record or the highest level in the united states. since 1970 and perhaps one of the most outrageous attacks on kennedy comes from, ironically enough, or maybe purposefully president biden's, former spokes person gen saki, who, despite having no journalist at qualifications, i should add now anchors a new show on em. it's been busy. and here she is attacking republicans for daring to support kennedy. well, republican seemed to have a new favorite democrat, robert f kennedy junior, and as long shot presidential run against or by and had become something of
12:34 pm
a succession. and right wing circles bit of a recession, leading republican candidate, donald trump, as openly praised him. fox news has dedicated a considerable amount of air time to him, reading over everything from his work out routine to his family name yes, spots and the kennedy name. and how his quote pulling so well against joe biden. so what you just heard is a class a catch up? it's the furthest thing from a fair and balanced journalistic approach to story telling that one could witness. and that's not to say that kennedy should not be question for some of the things he said, and some of the things he's done, but again, the ferocity of the attack with no room for new ones. no ma'am, for the benefit of doubt makes many motors think you know what she must be doing something right. joining us now to talk about this to discuss
12:35 pm
this topic about our k jr. further is dr. wilmer leon, dr. leon as a renown political scientist, syndicated columnist and host of the critical our on radio spot back. thanks so much professor for joining us. my pleasure. my pleasure. so the democrats hate them and the republicans hate them. what gives? well, 1st of all, they hate him because he's a kennedy and in, even though there's a generational divide, that's a lot in, in, in american politics. that's a very formidable name. you don't want to go, go up against a candidate for the democrats like him because he's a kennedy. that right? well, you've been with it should. well, people who are voting democrat, love him because he's the kennedy, the elite. they are having a real problem with him because he has a very serious populist, very serious anti war message following in the footsteps of his father following in the footsteps of his uncle. well,
12:36 pm
his uncle was killed for being anti or his for his uncle was killed for being a hands are male. i'm going on to live on saying that, but actually uh there are freezing r f k junior, who recently has made comments to that very effect. essentially say what the hell they hiding, it's been 60 years and they still don't want to release any of the documents. and there's an awful lot of history. there's an awful lot of data. there is an awful lot of research to support that, that, that position, and that's great. our viewers up to date on that. so john f kennedy, his uncle wanted to end the war in vietnam. v folks in the pentagon and the c. i a did not. he also had other varied things he wanted to do around the world. even make a reproach meant with fidel castro, believe it or not. and they didn't want him to do that either. and then one day, you mysterious. so you get shot with a guy who's never fired a rifle before. and one of the issues with the cuba is the thing was that if we go on this on the conspiracy side side, which doesn't mean it isn't real, that the,
12:37 pm
the mafia me wanted cuba to be returned back to his glory days. and by his agreeing with reproach mont, with castro, that meant that wasn't going to and the mafia ahead of them anyway because of everything that his little brother had done, which is the father which brings us back to lives. the little brother was the father of the man who is now running for president who seems to be hated only. maybe the only ones who hate him more than the democrats and the republicans in the political world is, is, is the corporate media. oh my god, they are just the it is vicious. what they're doing to this guy. well, i think that's because they are serving the interest of their benefactors. and now what we find instead of independent journalist such as yourself, what we find are more corporate interests that are who's, who's messages and narratives are being articulated by the times by the post, by m s nbc and so many of the other outlets. so there's, there's very little road,
12:38 pm
very little space for, for his message to be, to be, to be properly analyzed. what do you think they fear most about him, you know, that shakespearian term, right? that valdez protests too much. yes. makes me think, man, the fact that you're just wailing, this guy makes you think there's something you know about him that worries you. and that is anti war of the things that he's articulating. i went through his website on his government reconciliation. he'll to divide environmental clean up revitalization piece. bring it home. he said, by the way, among other things that we all but did everything to get the russians into ukraine that we provoked that situation and says that and he is wrong as the day. well no, no, because what now he's changed his position, right? because now he is busy. now when he tries to play both sides, so he's saying we're responsible for it. is that a way to just talk to those guys? it wouldn't abundance right? is right about that, then he also wants to talk about,
12:39 pm
well we're, we're protecting democracy in ukraine. yeah. and which, if there was democracy in ukraine, the united states without an overthrown the democratically elected ukrainian deanna coleman's government in 2014. so he tries to, he tries to play kind of both sides by saying, well, both parties were guilty and therefore, which is anything couldn't be further from the truth. do you believe that when the media attacks him for all the vaccine stuff he's done, some of which was doesn't make sense to me by the right. but, you know, as my wife and my kids will tell you, i say and do things sometimes that don't make sense to sure. you know, we're all great. you know, gods of creatures of, of this planet and of god and we make mistakes. we're all in perfect and perhaps he has said some things that were kind of goofy, but uh they, they, mrs. lee attack him for that because what they're really trying to do is shut them down on something else. well, but then of course you've got to throw in the, the,
12:40 pm
the, uh, form of the, the, the pharmacy, the, uh, the vaccine manufacturers. yeah. uh, they aren't going to be too happy with his anti vaccine. and when you look at, at the amount of money that's been made from the, from the co would vaccine. and so when you, whether it's vaccines, whether it's anti war, we're talking about money, interest, $20.00 buying and wants us in another $25000000000.00 over to you frame lockheed martin is very, very happy about the i was watching the republican candidates the other day debate and i know, and you're right to laugh because i had to turn it off just a bunch of angry old man and reminiscing about the past and signing each other. neither one of them could take a step without falling and they were like, now if you put me there, i'll kill all the russians. know i'll kill the chinese. know, oh, get the around in and, and, and they're all is it just gosh, man i,
12:41 pm
i was watching this thing and i was saying with very few exceptions, there was nothing new, just the same old crap. it was, it was a superficial talking points there, there was really no sense of policy that was put forth. they basically attacked each other. and i thought many, with one exception, that one guy ross swanny. is that his name or did i miss? perhaps a close enough. yeah. but he actually came out and said some of the things that were talking about. and it's not because i want not because i agree with him, but because i'd like to hear different perspectives that we can debate. that's not happening in america, except a lot of what he was articulating is, is warren re hashed when he's talks about energy policy. and we, he says, we need to burn more coal. we need to drill more. we need to frack more. uh, yeah, no big boat and embrace nuclear romance or guy. have you been there? done that?
12:42 pm
yeah. and the planet is want to and he said, and he said the, he said that the global warming is bogus. and then in a policy global warning, anti global warming policy has done more to hurt people, then global warming itself. do you think, given that he said that he was also critical of the war? did you think when these guys go out there and take that kind of for him that public stage, they know who they're really talking to and it's the donor class and they want to send the right message, so they get a big check. yes, but really well, i always would, i would always tell my students all the time when, when you're watching an event, like the state of the union or a debate. you are, there are, there are multiple audiences that are being targeted at different time, which is why, if you really pay attention, some of the messaging can, can cross and bleed over and sound a little inconsistent because there are multiple audiences that they're trying to
12:43 pm
reach at different points of the prison. well, at one time a role swanny said that the nikki haley was actually auditioning for a position with one of the big military contractors. he told her in the middle of debate and i thought, boy, he kind of mailed that one as well. i mean, yeah, but for a guy who's auditioning to be donald trump's vice presidential running mate. yeah. we know you're the same broadway different theater. they all have a purpose. can you imagine a scenario where it comes down to r f k junior or joe biden? you know, because they're because the dnc has already decided that there won't be any debates . so they're going to take this guy out before he even gets the deposition just like they did the burn, they're going to do to bernie they, they, it might go with different. well, yes, by not having any debates then that would come. that's just a huge, huge hurdle that robert kennedy junior has to, has to overcome because there,
12:44 pm
there are no debates. so basically the d n c has, it's is a coronation of joe biden for a 2nd term. so you think they're not having debates because they don't think that joe biden, given his condition, his age, etc, has the stamina to withstand or the intellectual acuity to be argumentative, disability. in fact, i will say to you, i will be very surprised if joe biden makes it to november of 24. i think that they're going to give us a bait and switch and the bait and switch is going to be gavin newsome. it's not going to be robert kennedy junior. how about the cadillac hers? are you skipped for the vice president for what? she's the vice president, if they move out the president. oh, you mean to do it took me to the right. have a rush. no. i was being a little facetious. no, no, absolutely not. you think she's we, i think she is an empty vessel. while she right there, she's in way over her head. i want to ask you about speaking of
12:45 pm
a w wasserman schultz. okay. what, what's the whole anti semite thing? she was, you know, shocked that he would say what he did and you know, this whole accusation of anti semite in this country any time that's convenient to try and basically take somebody out. it's a little troubling and, and, and that, that's not to say that somebody who's that doesn't matter should not be called out correct, but bear, but by the grace of god. busy all of us and we all make mistakes, and i have said things that are insensitive about every group including my own family, but it just, it was interesting watching that and i'd like to hear what, what you think about that and some other specific attacks that we're going to be going through, okay, we're talking to dr. lee on about this issue. and by the way, i'd like to continue the conversation with you. what do you say we do it on twitter handle? is rick sanchez, s tv? i'll be looking for you again. rick sanchez, tv. okay. when we come back, you're gonna see our f. k junior attacked verbally, of course,
12:46 pm
in congress by representative debbie wasserman schultz. what's this all about? to be right back. the team is the aggressive today. i'm authorized is additional strong site. today, russian was the country with the most sanctions imposed against it. a number that is constantly growing. but i think uh if it shows no problem, just a couple seniors, just click on anything and we'll see more in the we'll shift for banning all in portion of russian oil and gas news for another country. hope all's well. we're going to reset the fed service thing for the little joe biden in imposing these sanctions on russia has destroyed the
12:47 pm
american economy. so there's a boomerang, the the, the external respectfully requested the rescind mr. kennedy's invitation to be appear here due to his repeated and very recent statements that spread dangerous insights and medic and anti is and conspiracy theories. and attempted to move into executive session. because house
12:48 pm
rules prohibit public testimony, that's the grades or the famous people is reckless rhetoric helped fuel and fox and medic, incidents with for the record or the highest level in the united states since 1970 . it's nearly tripled in the last 6 years. so there it is debbie wasserman schultz. we just watched it and attacking him essentially accusing him of being an anti semite for suggesting or what seemed to me let me not put words in his mouth. it seemed to me that what he had done was he had come to the conclusion erroneous or not. that there are certain dna structures on this planet that some groups have, which makes them less or more susceptible to certain diseases or viruses, including the cove and virus. and she said, because he picked those 2 groups that he was an anti semite and a racist you say what i say that what she's really focused
12:49 pm
on is not anti semitism, but anti zionism. and that there has been a real push of late to a to, to inflate the, to me and, and so, but he wasn't even talking about israel. but in the past he has, i see. and well, that's why. so she was gonna inform is what i'm saying, i believe so. yeah, i, i believe so because what he said, all you have to say uh is, uh, you know, there, there are, there are a number of elements that that are unique to certain ethnicities to. so that's an a group, so i think what you're getting at is this a heaven forbid, anybody in american politics who sticks up for palestine, it's kind of might as well just take a dagger and stick it in your heart. absolutely. because once you say that you're finish, you're through and you'll never have any kind of political career. absolutely, and he has actually done that. he has done that,
12:50 pm
even though now the pressure that she's put on him. he's now had to go out and try to make amends and make people comfortable and all the notice that i noticed that he is a cow telling a little bit, ever since all of these accusations came in and i get it, you know, i mean, i would have liked to see him stick to his guns on some issues, but he's not, he's back well down and he did the same thing on ukraine. yeah. is he's trying to, he's trying to that the 2 thing you don't want to be accused of. you don't want to be accused of being a russian by me. you don't want to be accused of being an anti semitic. yeah. and so you'll find a lot of folks who will come out and say, well, rush, it was wrong. but because they're trying to defuse the putting bod argument before it presents itself. and the other one is israel has a right to exist, but, and they're trying to defuse the anti. uh mm hm. that i submitted the argument. and
12:51 pm
you can't have it both ways. let's talk about this now. why has he become so incredibly popular for a guy with probably the worst voice in the world? and arguably, very middle support from any establishment or institutional part of the united states. it's from media politics stuff because he has his own money. so he's not tied to the corporate interest. he is able to speak to a very populous message. that is speaking to poverty in this country, is speaking to lack of opportunity in this country. and he speak into the demographic that the democrats loved to pander to, but fail to support his popularity. a ratio is much higher than both trumps and vitamins. in fact, these at 19 they're like below 10, which negative? yes not is positive, right? correct. what, what, what does that say?
12:52 pm
i mean it's, the message isn't, is it is, it is the message. it is also the reality that it cuz i've got a bite and stuff here that bryan binds approval rating. 41.6 percent disapproval rating, $52.00. that's at 11 negative 11.2 percent. i was wrong. i know i said 10. you got the i want a 2 percent as an incumbent president. he's hustling backwards. yeah. it's not, it's not working for him. direction of the country right direction 24.9. wrong track. $64.00, that's a negative 40 percent swing. so joe biden isn't doing well in spite of his fiction of bi nomics. she's not doing well, let's talk about the vaccine issues that have presented themselves to him and, and we have to separate those. right. because pre colbin, he was already embroiled in the vaccine controversy saying, or suggesting to some regard that if you vaccinated your child,
12:53 pm
you probably could give them autism, which was a very controversial and most of the medical profession professionals that i know that i talked to say that's crazy and nobody should go around saying that to and i think it is correct. he's in trouble there. correct? yeah, yeah. but as you said earlier, you're not always right, correct. and i applaud him for taking his position as wrong as i think he is standing with that position a. don't equivocate say what you mean. mean what you say don't go ukraine on me. don't go. uh, israel on me in terms of flipping your position in trying to placate tell the truth as you understand. well, in that case, he could say i, i would imagine i would look at the camera and say, i had read studies that made me believe something that i later learned weren't true . i apologize for no, you know what, i'm not apologizing. i, i made the wrong,
12:54 pm
i believed it. i don't necessarily believe that now, in fact, and he said this in that hearing, he said, i have been vaccinated and all my children that have been vaccinated. i am fully vaccinated in every vaccine that's out there, except he said, go to that one. i'm not going to take. well, some of that would have to do, i guess, with having been vaccinated as a child. me. and as we all had to be in order to go to school in this country, there were certain vaccinations that we had to get about. you should see us immigrants, we got drugs back right here. i can take off my shirt and i'll show you a scar a so you know, for him to say, i didn't get the cold in there. there is data to support the fact that whether it was pfizer or whether it was one of the other pharmaceutical companies and manufacture of manufacturers of, of a vaccine manufacturers that they didn't do the testing. they was that they did that they were wrecked, they've that they were supposed to do. that's not
12:55 pm
a bad argument. well, as much as i disagree with it, it's not a bad or we are living in a time where if you don't come at every controversy or issue and look at it, i say journalistically. but even if you're not a journalist and look at it from who is being incentivized. mm hm. you know, in that movie j, f, k, follow the money. mm hm. who stands to gain, right, right. ask yourself those questions in almost every regard. and you can help them, even if it turn is out that were wrong, to ask the question, when so much money is at stake, me for these vaccines? me. why would they not then have someone pitch them to everyone, including children. and i have a right to say no, i don't want my child to take it. i don't think that at that age you should be taking that. but it seems like we, we are, we are penalized for even asking that question. and the only reason i ask, and i think people should ask it,
12:56 pm
is because there's money involved too much them money. you me who stands to benefit was it? can we bono? yeah. think is the is the, is a latin phrase. um, uh so you know, something else just pops into my head about him. and the fact is, with all the money with all of his wealth. yeah. he's been a public servant on the private side. you know, when you look at the, is his, it, his work in the, in the ecology and he's always been working for the betterment of the public as opposed to somebody like nancy pelosi, who made her money as a politician and then wants to tell you don't worry about it, i got a $1000.00 worth of ice cream in my freezer. he comes across to the public as authentic. i just looked him up his age and took that off. and i can see that 69. okay. does that surprise you? uh, these are the no,
12:57 pm
he's the fresh phrase guy. he's the do the see though. he's 70 almost 70 years old . and it's interesting because from a demographic perspective, a lot of folks now have no clue who his father wasn't. have no have no clue who is on for was but it's are you serious? help me if you, my son is 21. if you ask my son who's our f k j, who's our okay. uh he, he, he probably be able to tell you, he was a, well, if you ask me who j f k was he'd be able to say he was a president, but he might not make the connection right. that that the r f k junior is netflix control. what that shows you the problem? no, no, no, i don't. i don't mean it's troubling because of your son. i mean, you're so different than my kids are. i knew anybody else has kids, but it's, it's, it's, it's the idea, you know, and it's just a, we've moved out. yeah. we don't teach history. we don't teach well see mice and those who are, if k n g, if they are, because we've talked about assassinations and i was kind of things i don't know. but in terms of what's taught in the middle school, in high school civics classes,
12:58 pm
if they even have them anymore and you're absolutely right. i'm wondering, um, as we, i guess uh close down this conversation which you know, you and i, we could go on forever. so do you think he's got a chance no big big, i'm going back to bernie sanders and what with hillary clinton and deborah wasserman schultz did to bernie sanders? and the big problem is no debates. you know, it's a great conversation, like we'll see what happens. but this is one of those phenomenons that comes around once in a while, in what is a boring political spectrum, suddenly someone's shaking things up. mm. let's see what kind of runny has, and let's see how long this last. good doctor, thanks yourself. my pleasure. thank you. right, really appreciate it. and before we go, i want to remind you of our mission and simple really i want to be silo. the world we've got, we've got to stop living in these boxes. try to still live in boxes. truth is everywhere, some extra interest. i'll be looking for you again right here,
12:59 pm
