ministration so joining me now to translate all of whom bus co-host and investigative journalist ben swan. let's start with where beijing stands here what has caused so much anger on their side. yeah if you listen to those that you just played they had a whole list of things they were angry about right but what this really comes down to is the fact that about a month ago mike pompei o secretary of state talked about the u.s. relationship with taiwan which as you probably know is that is a huge issue for china right so the united states has for the last many decades at least 40 years really not had a normalized relationship with taiwan that they have something they call the one china policy which we just centrally recognize that china is as one official government taiwan of course as they are the actual official government of china there's a whole dispute between china and taiwan over this but what the trouble ministration has done for the last few years is they have in many ways normalized a relationship with taiwan that other administrations have not normalized so for instance selling we

joining me now to discuss been west coast ambassador journalist ben swan a ban what does this mean for the u.s. and china. well it means a few things 1st of all you have to consider the fact that when we're talking about the u.s. and china and china has been taking as we've talked about on the show many times before a more prominent role worldwide and what does that ultimately mean well it means that more finance is being directed their foreign investment is being directed there and the converse of that china is making greater investments worldwide into other countries their road and build initiative obviously has been able to really expand their reach and influence around the world certainly with countries around the world that in the past the united states have more influence over so we're really watching kind of a shift in that in that power dynamic the u.s. which still holds the world's reserve currency i don't expect to see that change anytime soon but what we still hold that the us finds itself increasingly running behind china and that's somewhat problematic especially if you're

does that actually solve parlors problem joining us whom with co-host and investigative journalist ben swan but what are the terms that parlor would have to agree to in order to rejoin the apple app store. craig. the idea of whether they would have to do is moderate content control what users post and moderate speech that's the entire point that tim cook is trying to make and the idea here is very simple that parlor is not allowed to be the site that it was set up to be it was set up as a area for free speech parlor by the way says they're not a conservative company i think you could debate that but they're not a conservative company but they do believe in free speech so they have people from all different walks of life in all different ideologies who are able to post there but what's really interesting about this and this is i think where we see a lot of hypocrisy here is there was an analysis done recently on the people who stormed the capitol and the sites that they were on communicating with each other those sites were not parlor in fact of the 1st 13 people arrested over or rioting in

within hours of biden's inauguration so joining me now to discuss both and investigative journalist ben swan so ben where do these companies currently stand. yes right now there is essentially asking the new york stock exchange is it mentioned to reconsider this deal list and it goes back to an executive order that was signed by president trump back in november i believe it was november 11th of last year and the goal of that executive order was essentially this it was saying that any chinese company that assists in any way the chinese military could not be on a stock exchange in the united states because u.s. investors were banned from being able to invest in those companies that was the idea so the n.y.s.e. essentially had to delist these companies and that took place apparently late last year and then as recently as january 11th of this year they stopped actually trading stocks so they're not allowed to do it right now what they're essentially doing is asking for clarification and investors in those companies are saying please list us on the stock exchange but it really comes down to wheth

really what they get away with over the next 4 years we're going to have to leave it right there ben swan thank you so much for your time. thank you. time now for a quick break but when we come back the boeing 737 max is set to make its return to the skies and you're up in canada but how do the losses from 2020 stand impact the company in the long run and as we go to break here are the numbers out the quote. right now all the. people who are overweight or obese it's the full suitable to self frenzy and sugary and solti and addict and it's not at the individual level it's not individual willpower and if we go on believing that would never change this obesity epidemic that industry has been influencing very deeply the medical and scientific establishment. so what's driving the obesity epidemic it's hope we're both as. the world is driven by dreamers shaped by one person with those. who dares thinks. we dare to ask. so movers isuzu. search is going to be. among those who just came up with a ticket did you hear that oh. antarctica is a very international community i. mean it used. to fly. you

really what they get away with over the next 4 years we're going to have to leave it right there ben swan thank you so much for your time. thank you. time now for a quick break but when we come back the boeing 737 max is set to make its return to the skies in europe and canada but how do the losses from 2020 stand to impact the company in the long run and as we go to break here the numbers out the close. like absolutely awful 1st came coded then a 2nd wave is coming now the virus is mutating and i'd walk 2 blocks away from the apartment and i would get confused as to holly given that. meanwhile patients who recovered from cove it started to report some unusual aftereffects the symptoms were different but. my hearing has been ok i think. it's one of those things where it's like researches all over the world are trying to determine the many aches pains and other problems and then turn it into numbers show you my hair. you appear to be 1113 there this is throughout the day my hair just. various sources reports that didn't just leave a 35 percent of recovered patients which. is the bush white

the associated press and subtle other agencies but let me take a breath and bring in my colleague ben swan veteran journalist who's there in this melee as it continues right now ben i don't know if you can hear me but take it away yeah you rick absolutely so you me really laid out very well one of the circumstances of what happened here a couple of very interesting things so we've been talking to people on the ground who actually did push their way into the capitol i asked why it was the reason for them certainly going up on this 2nd level here and they said it was because of the fact it might be in. that letter and that was kind of the precipitous people and now if you look back here behind me you can see there's kind of multiple levels here of the capitol building on the exterior there are a lot of supporters of the president out there right now we've. heard steers for them with no way to certain flag from a certain state but let's talk about some of the response from capitol police because protesters were pushing their way and they were met with a barrage of rubber bullets i'm holding o

from the building it now appears they may be some kind of action on the part of law enforcement ben swan is out there ben can you hear me. so this is been going on now for about the last half hour what we're seeing are a series of flash bangs that keep going off it's the upper part of this this platform area over on the left hand side back towards the building i have been told by multiple people who were up there and coming down that there is a large group of people who are still scuffling with police up there at one point some of those protesters took the pepper spray away from police and pepper sprayed officers so what the police are trying to do is they're trying to clear everyone off of these stairs and they're using those flash bangs if you used them now probably every few minutes to try to kind of clear people off and to bring them down there using pepper spray and they're using flash bangs to put things rick i was listening to your reporting one of the things that we have learned about that young woman i have been getting some information from people who were here the young woman

veteran who was shot by police dozens of protesters have been charged and arrested r t america's ben swan witnessed events. well the atmosphere out here is absolutely incredible right now as you can see president trump is speaking addressing a huge crowd which is over by the white house but we're all backed up all the way to the washington monument. we know that people were storming into the capitol we know that tear gas was fired and we also know that rubber bullets were fired but i was just showing video a minute ago it from inside the capitol of a young woman on a stretcher bleeding pretty proof usually had a lot of blood on the side of her head on the side of her neck and. number of police the secret service were saying get back get down get out of the way she did leave the car and as we kind of raced up to grab people pull them back they shot her in the neck and she fell back on me and started to say she's fine it's cool and then she started kind of like moving weird and blood was coming out now the neck and nose just behind me there are thousands of people there on the other side of

analyst chrystia and ben swan chrystia let's start with you break down for us what's happening with big win here the correction that we're seeing. well i really wouldn't call this so much of a correction as it is a consolidation in the last couple of days we did see elevated levels of volatility that came from a massive unwinding of leverage across the board where several $1000000000.00 worth of future were just blown out 1st on the long side and then subsequently on the short side as a bolster claimed lost ground and squeeze the short sellers out so now we have some someones of you will bring him back in the market with funding rates are dropping back into the range of between one to 5 bits to normalcy so we see a bit more warming and ice and all they should and basing out the $35000.00 mark where this will be another medium term support level so consolidating this is a very healthy move for the market after that parabolic move $40000.00 so as such the timing of the big point pas in the rally also coincided with the uptick in the u.s. dollar coming on the back of items $1.00 trillion d

america host ben swan spoke to his pond casque us about the language coming from the blue camp. but we constantly use language to to demonize and dehumanizing people on the other side it's leading us towards very drastic measures you're exactly right that it's dangerous and to call your next door neighbor who is a white male who voted for trump the mystic terrorist is not going to result in good downstream effects and i always tell people there's only 2 options either we're going to resolve these issues peacefully through the battle of ideas or in 10152100 years we will resolve them violently add a moment where there is such rage toward the losing side i don't think we've ever seen this happen before where rather than taking a victory lap rather than celebrating the win we're seeing almost like what you might call a sore winner is that is that how you would describe it the democrat party and their alliance with the tax national media and tyrants to eliminate any boy straight any opposition any any political dissent that's going to challenge you know the radical left agenda and s

guys who must co-host an investigative journalist ben swan than what are the terms that parlor would have to agree to in order to rejoin the apple app store yes kind of a crazy idea but whether centrally they would have to do is moderate content control what users post and moderate speech that's the entire point that tim cook is trying to make with the idea here is very simple that parlor is not allowed to be the site that it was set up to be it was set up as a area for free speech parlor by the way says they're not a conservative company i think you could debate that but they're not a conservative company but they do believe in free speech so they have people from all different walks of.
