new, let me give you an example by the way of what i'm talking about. the whole country knows that there, there's something horribly wrong with the president's mental and physical fitness. i mean, you're, you're, there's no, there's no escaping that, right? and, and it, and it's killing his pulse, and it's killing his, his chances of winning the presidency. and not to mention it's killing this party now too. so, given that scenario, you wouldn't think right, that republicans would just shut off, leave it alone. shakespeare said, what leave well enough alone, but they can't. they can't help themselves. they're starving for the spotlight starving for attention. so yesterday, i'm sitting here watching the news and these guys, they call a group news conference yesterday to say, i told you so about you know about, but even though really they didn't tell us. so here here's part, here it is. good morning. there is no longer any doubt that joe biden is unfit to

be our commander in chief. the bite and white house far left the house democrats and the main stream media are in complete disarray because they know this to be true and have been caught participating in one of the greatest media cover ups in american history. for the last 3 and a half years house republicans and the american people have been demanding details about jo biden's mental and physical decline. no, they haven't been doing that book, not for nothing but the republican party has been having hearings on capitol hill tons of hearings one after another where they seem to be saying, we all watch this with our own eyes. do these things. we don't remember. they said just the opposite. in fact, they describe joe biden, that some evil genius who had masterminded and negotiate. and these elaborate deals and contracts with the chinese government, what's millions of dollars. and they said he did the same with several other countries, including ukraine. they made about to be some incredibly cool up which still might

be true, but yet sophisticated wheeler dealer. and now, because everybody else is saying, oh, they portray him at some doddering old man and can't even put a sentence together look, which is it? because it can't be both. manila, let me bring you in on this. you know, as i was watching this, i couldn't help and take that and i wonder what your reaction is. well, rick, i want to be fair to the republicans here. i think all of these house committee hearings that they were holding regarding biting were all based on factual at least some part factual events that they can prove from joe biden younger days. either you know, from when he was a senator or definitely when he was vice president and the spend, the envoy basically to ukraine at the time where we heard him on video threatening to withhold money and funding to your brain unless the ag there got fired. so there are, there are some legitimacy to what they were saying before, but that was before, that was the guy that was threatening the job. i didn't,

that was threatening people in town halls to live, push up competition. well that joe biden is long gone. so i think that's fair. yeah . what i mean. what about, what about, what about, what about my point about when, when, when you have an opponent and he's struggling, leave him alone. i mean, i agree. i agree with that. let him dig his own grave. no pun intended, i'm not what she said. no, no, i know. i know what you're right. just strategically to, to check with a strategically let him dig his own grave. let him make his own bed with his stutters and his fumbled. let him do that, just like president trump has been kind of mom, mostly mom, this the debate because he's letting joe biden a quite a muddle through and have the, the negative media focus on joe biden. and not him at this time, which is why we've not heard donald trump announce, who has the pick is. and he will announce that at the republican convention next week, and know walkie. so i think, as far as the media goes,

they have been accusing what we've been seeing me as, as 1st, a republican spin, because joe biden is vibrant and vigorous and bureau and all that really natalie stuff. but now it's a, it's a russian conspiracy that the russians are, they're pulling out the old play book. and now that the russians, they're saying the russians are amplifying that jo biden's condition really is or have bad as we see it has a brand new thing. and we'll have 24 hours. i haven't heard that. i imagine them, if it's not the russians, it's the iranians. and if it's not the right iranians, it's the palestinians. and it was about the palestinians. it's the chinese because we have to live in a world where we only have enemies, and those are the people that we seem to play the god, you're absolutely right. you're absolutely right. manila, pleasure, little short and segment today, cuz i want to spend some time with an old friend. thanks so much ahead and stick, sticking around. i'll look forward to seeing you again tomorrow. partner. look, you don't want this conversation. i'm in the middle and i were just having the real

question and all of this is no matter how you see this, we're spend, this is why do we have to choose seriously? why do we have to choose between these 2 parties right now, whether whether you like by them and you think he's not? craze are too. busy so there are you like trump, and you think he's not too crazy? whatever. when, when, when right now, 25 percent of americans hate both parties and both candidates. that's a real gallup statistic, by the way. 25 percent. so why can't we hear the voices of other candidates? why are we gotten to this point in this country? why can't other ideas be we can be thrown into the ring? well, that's what i'm going to be talking about today. and we're going to join by presidential candidate, former harvard professor cornell west. you will want to hear what he has to say. so whatever you do as you look at him right there, his smiling face do not go away. we'll be right back. the

march the 22nd 1943. during the great petrie, i'll take the shirts and munch fatality and 118 run down the better we'll see under the age of carting ship of the new wish in the fitness center. yes. so this one, most of the rooms to pony it to you. $149.00 people died including $75.00 children of age was practically wiped off the face of the la new blue loves of the orchard. and couldn't, charlie was, you know, june, will you put it as follows? oh, shoot. was i really, i really usually its own you feeling, you know,

so the infamous battalion responsible for the atrocity included over $100.00 ukranian nationalists from west to new. right. because of the applicants. all right, and so i'm see, what are you guys so far as the new e phone? that's a lot of those to you guys pursuing your up or show up with them. us casa de classified criminal cases from the central archive of the k g, b, a better rules shut the light on the atrocity. and on so numerous questions that have remained an onset for many years. watch on c. to take a fresh look around his life kaleidoscopic isn't just a shepherd, reality distortion by how of tired vision with no real opinions. fixtures designed to simplify will confuse who really wants

a better wills. and is it just because it shows you fractured images, presented as fast? can you see through their illusion going underground? can the it's a great pleasure right now as we welcome you back to welcome to our show. dr. cornell was former harvard professor, running for the presidency of the united states. and you know, it's interesting being able to talk to i, i think someone who's an old friend in many ways, cuz as many of you may know, and i'm sure he remembers it. when i worked at the cnn. and i worked at the nbc and i worked at fox and all those years. well, one of the things that i remember was having the opportunity to interview dr. cornell west. and i've always thought that he was one of the few real truth colors in this country. there were, there aren't enough of them and you know,

and dr. west is, i'm thinking about what i'm saying to you. i'm thinking to myself that i shut something at the beginning here, where i said, we've got, we've become a country where our politicians are all status quote, people with status quote, ideas, and use or happen to be just the opposite of that. do you understand where i'm going with that, you know, and they have a one know, brother, you just so very kind and generous. and we have precious memories of those days and cnn, and facts and others. but the crucial thing is you are as strong and fresh as ever . and that's a beautiful thing to be that when i think of a brother but brother trouble, i say to myself a both lottery king lear and learn how in fact a powerful man and ruler becomes a human breed. being out of humility, to move from hubris, to, to humility, and to move from lying and been destitute to integrity and genuine

generosity. that's a spiritual issue. that's a moral issue. me, you understand that well, with your own background, you've got to wrestle with, allowing that integrity to a merge. and all of us have that struggle on the battlefield of our own souls. but when you look at button and trump is very clear that they've, they've hemorrhage they've had listed in so many different ways as a certain addiction to mendacity in lying and trumps. on the side, the trump, where is no accountability, say, and do anything he wants. and by this toll only the good stuff and not really the full stuff. yeah. who really is everybody's got a good and bad in one sense. you think maybe it's what makes ma'am is cuz we, you know, i think one of the things that we all ought to do in this country, how in this world is, you know, look at everything through our own and professions and look for better things that

where we can create maybe a better world, and i'm not seeing that. and when i use the term status quote with you, i've been doing a lot of reading lately. and i was thinking of myself, you know, it's the same people, the guys who are in the state department today were there with, with, with, with bush and with trump and with clinton and with obama. and the same people on the c, i a were there were the oldest and the same people in treasury. and after a while it's like we're growing, we ain't changes. we, we, i know i'm saying 8 and i probably shouldn't say that cuz i'm a grand that now. but you know, we're not moving forward professor. then you're absolutely right. i mean we, we're, we're, we're in a deep moment of spiritual decay and more of decadence. want to be honest about that, you would tell them what your precious grant the grandchild. yeah, and we all have kids and grandchild is trying to give them examples of what it is just to be decent and what it is be consistent in what it is to be compassionate. so those are the things that are being pushed to the margin. it's

all now just market value and talk about power, inspect the cold and putting people down and tragic of the people in being so obsessed with attention. and you said you said what about maturity, go back to shakespeare. it again, when it hadn't edgar's is right, and this is all. now, what is rightness? maturing over time. what happens to an empire when it grows powerful and grows rich? but does it grow up? does it really grow up in one sign of growing up is not just humility, but concerned with the vulnerable when you become indifferent to the vulnerable. when you become indifferent to those who are suffering, the great reb i have shall used to say indifference. the evils more insidious than evil itself. specials you dec understanding of maturation we can go to martin king is the similar inside we can go to guy and even in the similar hand do. and so i wouldn't go to bell hooks. it's

a symbol of buddhist inside or in bed. does the service bonus inside? but it's a deeply human affair. we're losing sight of our common humanity though by then that's not just a platitude. and that's the real. as i hear you speak, i'm, i'm wondering why we're not allowed to give import to your candidacy as we should. i would, i would give you more important than i'm giving to any other candidate or certainly as much, do you have the, do you feel personally cheated? i know our country is. do you as well? no. not really. i mean, any time it empowers in the k, it means that they are far removed from the best that went into the making of that in par. because every empire got some positive elements. the problem is you've got to deal with domination and oppression. and you've got to deal with the poverty and the suffering. you get to deal with the militarism. you got to deal with various forms in a phobia. but there is a best of america,

you know. see the java is the bass. martin king is the best. this is the year harriet tubman, she's about john co tray. they are as american adult drop. yeah. they are as they are the american as apple pie. but if we no longer have access to their examples, access to their love, the truth, the justice. then all we have access to other live, the revenge, the retribution, and in the in that's just the seeds of destruction, brother. and you know, the great american novel mobile did because about what america's addiction to self destruction as a half melva wrote the 31 year old man that's deep. and so i wouldn't go to tony morrison. similar cutting. yeah. how do we the ring that into our politics? how can our politicians be as trooped? like, as our honest have been, you know, you use the word destruction and as you say that something clicked in my head and i

said, well, you know, it would be bad enough to destroy yourself, but we now seem to be planning to destroy the world. the fact of the matter is where it's going to start a war with china. why? who knows where it's shooting to start a war with russia, who, by the way, has more nuclear warheads. then we do buy essentially sabotaging at least 3 attempts so far. to stop the war in ukraine. look what's happening right now with nato. uh, same with a ron, by the way. and of course, the guys the situation. it speaks for itself. and on going on going, he can actually see the precious babies being killed and then we would say it is about any by baby and baby have the same values as really baby same value as a cuban baby. same value was an 80 opening baby, same value as an e. ronnie and baby we want to be morally consistent. is it with you or president of how would you be able, you know, we use the word status quote, you know,

when i think of our foreign policy, when i think of our state department, i think the status quo o up. how would you, how would you tackle that? because, you know, if you did, you would get a lot of resistance. oh, well indeed indeed, make it and nothing wrong with resistance. you just have to be resilient. but no, you see, i am an anti imperialist presidential candidate. which means that i'm running, they had the empire in order to dismantle the empire. i don't think that america needs $800.00 military use around the world, a $130.00 special operations and over a 100 countries and $0.62 of every discretionary budget, a dollar going to the military. oh, we've got 62 percent of our fellow citizens doing what living paycheck to paycheck? where, where is the money to trace the dollars? it goes to war. how would that money be better spent? we need quality communities,

we need quality education. we need the right to health care. we need a ride the house, and we don't need to have a 1000000 fellow citizens living on the streets and the richest imply the history of the world. does that at all? does that have more priorities, brother, warp, rella or it just does. it does surprise you that suddenly the democratic party, i'm sure if you're like me, you grew up a democrat, you know, or looking at the democratic party as the, you know, today trusted me. that's not where i am today, but by the way, i'm not on the other side either. i just, i, i criticized. oh, you think to yourself, you really like what use up to vendor. but did you ever think that the democrats would be such a more longer that they've become as a party, a well you member might. and jane had to break with l. b. j, because he was lying to had the crimes of the vietnam war. yeah. here, right, you know, and i mean very much the sad thing is the both parties had been tied to big money in big military and you had to be truthful about both that as me do exactly identical. but it certainly means that both have consensus is when it comes to

military adventure wisdom around the world. look at, look at the various us government interventions in latin america over the last 50 years. that was republicans, as well as democrats. yeah. yeah. yeah. can be bought them all in 54, oregon, b, brazil, and 65 dominican republic and 65 and go on. and oh no, no, no. yeah. and a, a jilly and you're right. oh, it's sheila and $73.00. 0, my god, you mentioned guatemala on 54200000 people. that because we decided we didn't like the person they elected and we decided to go in there and take them out. and it's a story that's too often and told them, by the way, when i tried to tell that story and cnn, they said you're out of here. we don't want them. and girls who criticizes our country, but new. i criticize my kids, it doesn't mean i don't love them. that's exactly right. we'll say this is what i mean by maturity and humility. when you love both, you respect, protect and also call wreck. and if you love your country, you protect you respect. but you also correct. yeah,

and that's the only way in which you continually mature what you give up on maturation, bravo. you got stagnation or destruction. and we're living it in a moment in which, you know, the united states is the 68 input and the history of the species. we as there's been some. busy equity, and all empowered sooner or later begin to do the decay as the military overreach abroad, and corruption of relates across parties and the frustration of the citizenry and the hunger for a strong man using that a strong workman, but a strong man. that's where the patriarchy comes in. we know, but the strong man is tied around a go, and usually that tire the gold picked to really plato's republic, that tyrant himself is so shot through with a narcissism, and of masochism, and an inability to engage in introspection. and what does it do? he leaves the place off the cliff and i used it before as the world would tell him

what we got an ecological catastrophe. we've got to come to terms if the nations can't respect each other and work together to deal with ecological catastrophe. what are we really talking about? yeah, but the good news is, there's always a cloud of witnesses. the wave of people of all colors, all genders, august, 5th, joined agents, all religions who were willing to be courageous, compassionate, sacrificial truth, telling justice seeking and joy spreading. gotta keep the joy of the brother, 5 minutes left instead of you. what i want to ask you about 2 things that are in the news right now. one of them obviously, is nato because it's taking place as we speak. and the other one, of course, is going to be the condition of our president. why don't you say we start with nato? i'm curious about what you're thinking. as i look at nato meeting this week, here, no less in the united states. i see a group of nations who are trying to define themselves by separating themselves from other nations. they seem to be saying,

we don't want anything to do with india or russia, or china, or iran, or south africa, or many of these countries who are on the other side instead of saying, come join us, let's be big. they seem to be saying, let's be small and we're going to be getting ste. yeah. that's the most of my, i'm getting. how am i wrong? you know what? i tell you the boys. what an essay. 1945 is chicago defenders. he said he sees a world war 3 coming about with united states trying to strangle hold russia and suppress china as 1945. and the boys wouldn't write on everything. nobody has a monopoly on true, but it's very deep inside he has because you're absolutely right. of course you can see the attempt to, to, to counter the counter, the marriages of various countries in the global south. yeah. and you can see temp attempts to act as if we're not in this thing together as a human beings across the global south global north. now it's going to be the

predatory capital is ones that it gets f history, the very ugly colonialism that's bill want to hold on, rather than embracing each and every one of the $192.00 precious nations and country that constitute this blo. when you're absolutely ready, but another place to start that was, is george ken, as pa, for peace in february and new york times 1997. when he said it is an air to expand nato that george kennan was. the very mine that brought not just containment and that the comment is policy. but nato 1949. the gab and again, with rid of to 1947 as you know, then what the, what was the responding to the collapse of the soviet? yeah, yeah. all of us were pressure, but all of it's domination. how do you bring them in? we didn't do that. yeah, important themselves said recently twice. i've come to the united states and said, make me a part of nato instead of engineering. right. i mean, let me be a part of what you guys do. and they said, no, we don't want you to be why,

why would we not if i would invite she, i wouldn't bite the i told i wouldn't, but why not disagree with them to their face? not away from them, don't you think that's it? that's exactly right. that's exactly right, but it far, but it has to do an orthodox, the dogmatism narrow on us and especially those at least the constitute the washington consensus that you've talked about in an, in your presentation. no, by that they just locked in to that kind of parochialism and also tied to the big corporate interest and the war manufacturers and others. well, uh, take me here. my floor director is given me the big 2, which means we got 2 minutes left. so i think let me leasing the last 2 minutes for this very important discussion about something that's taking place in our country right now. the condition of our president. what, what, what is your take on we, what we as a nation, what his wife, maybe the people around him should be telling. uh, as you would say, uh brother, but

a. yeah. yeah. we got to pay for the brother and jill and the others is clear. he doesn't have both paddles in the waters form of elderly abuse. to have him out there acting as if he's. he's 41 rather than 81. i'll go back again. re king nearby and please come to terms with law the time come to terms with the client, all of us on into the very moment they were born. we're old enough to die. we're already in the process of a sudden kind of decline and it becomes crystallized by the time you get a certain age. and it's clear that it's highly crystallized in this time, if not just to move a side. but then you've got to deal with a democratic party that has its own corrupts and then the allies been told about by me as if he somehow was on the cutting edge of fraction. isn't it? me? don't believe a line i that that's what would, oh, it looks like it's it's, it's a lot like watching a felina movie with my all the crate. these are the leading cartridge or the 2nd

civil war by lead because you do a war 3 in both of them have been in such spiritual lives as it go decline and, and it was supposed to sit there and take it. no, i mean while we're seeing poll numbers where people are looking at both and saying, i'm not even sure i want to vote for either of these guys. it's a fascinating situation in our history. and then we have people like you, as we leave this conversation, let me just say that i'm sure i speak for millions of americans when i say it would be so good for our country to have you standing there, toe to toe at these debates with these 2 gentlemen and not just you, but others as well who may have a little different perspectives and they're being denied that and i, for one believe the more voices the better. and that's the reason maybe we're not growing as you. and i said earlier, um professor, thank you for taking time. there's always the bless the nobel then used a strong absolutely is always

a joy to be in conversation with him and god bless you and your loved ones, man, you're good man. thank you so much. god bless you as well. that's our show. remember to always look outside your own boxes. truths don't live in boxes. we like to say around here. i'm rick sanchez and we'll be looking for you next time. the the what is the part of the visit that the employee would post good isn't the the place you of us and that in the word part is it something deeper, more complex might be present there? let's stop without cases. let's go out of

for the 2nd i just give us a rough day scope. otherwise you should have studied questions like joe, she knew what you're dividing. is us on some of the, by the exercise to look forward to starting the chest. this is, i cannot be honest with you if it is really like the demo that you're going to be at those of those. so a great test fluff dave skills by the way. so that to me up to my cd desk. they both way way. can you go to new hampshire? took a look at

a latham billing child study question. the stuff your boss i see in the scenes, the beginning of its history, the united states of america has officially declared the striving for freedom and people's rights to happiness. however, in reality, having won independence, american colon is tested for the total extermination of the indigenous population of the continent. american indians were deprived of their land. local residents were driven into reservations and given the worst agricultural territories,

while the best let and was appropriated by white colonizers. the strongest blow to american indian tribes was the extermination of by some native americans lived by hunting these wild animals. colonists slaughtered the bison, and in fact, made them nearly extinct. every buffalo dead is in india and gone and said, colonel richard got a veteran of the bloody and vicious indian wars cynically. the indigenous population was simply exterminated us army general phillips sheridan expressed the evidence of this policy in the infamous words. the only good india is a dead indeed. the genocide of native americans of north america lead to a demographic catastrophe. the exact number of deaths is still unknown, but the number of victims is in millions. having been a majority on the continent before the indigenous people make up less than 3

percent of the us population today. the, the new ones used because we only got to know what happened in this forest village, 18 years ago. witness testimonies of those things that are.
