rick sanchez. hi everybody i'm rick sanchez i want to welcome all of you were watching us from all over the world including those of you who are watching us on your phones using portable t.v. we're glad that you are there this morning in a dramatic escalation an apparent breach of diplomatic protocols the u.s. has ordered china to close one of its most important consulates in the united states you see it there in the video the fires burning are apparently the folks there in the embassy burning some of their personal papers the chinese consulate in houston texas is shut down and china is responding with an apparent ultimatum already wow this shutdown of the consulate is only the latest sign in a growing trend of countries being punished by the u.s. state department in fact it's not just china. as of this writing the united states has a whopping $7967.00 sanctions in place $7967.00 sanctions it's a somewhat bizarre and almost astonishing list that includes not just countries but even individuals peop

well that's right rick b.p. b.o.c. on the people's bank of china is moving forward with testing out its brand new digital currency the 1st major test of this digital currency and yes it appears that it will be done through a very popular. food delivery service called mates $101.00 of the largest apps in china with nearly half of 1000000000 users it is owned by chinese tech giant $0.10 and it has about 65 percent share of the market this makes. perfect testing ground for trying to central bank backed by digital currency it's a project that is been underway now for over 6 years chinese authorities are pushing to have the digital currency fully operational they say and then use by 2022 for the olympics that will be held in china a place where they can showcase for the rest of the world this digital currency and still a lot of questions about how this digital currency will work in comparison to actual crypto currency yes we do know this that the chinese currency will be linked to a holder smart phone number and transaction

rick sanchez and how to get everybody i'm rick sanchez and i want to welcome all of you who are watching us all over the world including those of you who are watching us on the on your mobile device using the portable t.v. once again the united states of america has set a new record in fact it happened yesterday when we surpassed 59000 covert 900 cases in just one day 59000 by the way that is in no way an outlier it's actually a verifiable trend because we have in fact now set and then broken that record 5 times listen to this 5 times out of the last 9 days in fact it's safe to say that when it comes to coronavirus cases we here in the united states we are clearly in a league of our own. take a look at this chart see that chart right there what it does is it compares the caseload that's the red line in the united states to the blue line in europe and i want to show you a couple of things there's the peak for europe you see that right there that's when they started to take some measures to try and create lockdowns for example ours came here in the united states just a little bit afterward

rick sanchez hello again everybody i'm rick sanchez i want to welcome all of you who are watching us from all over the world on your regular television providers or your mobile device using the portable t.v. today we offer an exclusive interview with saudi arabia's ambassador to the united nations where the oil demand so low what will his country do that and the thorny issues but doubling the kingdom this year all that is coming up but we want to begin with new information about kobe 1000 there are 4 new major developments regarding the science of corona virus and i want to break this down for you because this is really important stuff number one number one remember how we were told that covert 19 was essentially a respiratory disease right that primarily attacked and targeted our lungs it appears that is not the case now see this is new information but 19. turns out to actually be more of a bascule or disease that attaches to blood vessels and causes blood clots that means it's not confined to the lungs but rather to any organ which is why people can die of kidney disease or heart d

sanchez his name is rick sanchez and full disclosure here rick is also the founder of a managed health care company in south florida which is the fastest growing in the united states according to a magazine yeah it's always good to congratulate you on that one i know. just a little bit about that my kids will eat. rick i think the most important question is how important is this what do you make of this move to have over 700 almost 700 locations of walgreens have actual p.c.p.'s inside of them i think it's a trend i think it's the future of how we will be seen by doctors i think it's the future of health care in the united states and let me tell you why it's probably a good thing because health care in the united states has forever been very fragmented. let me give you a more rudimentary example of what i'm talking about most people don't know their doctors are right they really don't with the exception of people who are 65 and older and are on medicare and actually joining an association if you will a place where they have their medical needs taken care of most people don't know who t

rick sanchez and hire again everybody i'm rick sanchez we want to welcome all of you who are watching us from around the world using your regular t.v. providers or your mobile phones with the portable t.v. up which you should check into if you haven't already there is an important follow up that i want to share with you now this is really important remember 2 weeks ago when the new york times ran with a story that seemed to confirm with absolute confidence that this was happening here let me read you the story by detailing the exact words in the lead sentence quote american intelligence officials have concluded that a russian military intelligence unit secretly offered bounties to taliban linked militants for killing coalition forces in afghanistan listen to the certainty of those words right there see that american intelligence concluded secret bounties taliban linked was the important words there's no equivocation there which may be why as soon as the t.v. news networks here in america read that story in the new york times they began reporting it breathlessly almost as if their hair

rick sanchez. hi everybody i'm rick sanchez and i want to welcome all of you watching from all over the world including those of you who are watching us on your phones using the portable t.v. . you know there is something odd coming out of ukraine today that mandates us to ask questions about our involvement there to find out if we are our country our state department is assisting in ukraine or orchestrating is a big difference between those 2 let me 1st say this the foreign policy of our country has directed us from time to time to step in legitimately where wrongdoing is taking place in some other part of the world be it an internal civil war where atrocities are being committed or where a large country is picking on a small country we get that right now let's plug in ukraine into that equation where our state department asserts that we are simply there to assist the ukrainian government with advisors and resources and military hardware but not to orchestrate or to interfere with the will of the

they want to back i'm rick sanchez. the u.s. has once again reported record single day spikes and new cases as the virus continues to grow in hot spots across the country so i was the u.s. doing for example compared to other hot spots you know interestingly enough because watch the movie. groundhog day where things kept repeating over and if you keep waking up and seeing the same story this is kind of what this feels like like we've gone through this already and now we're going through it again. cases going up again for more on this very important let's story let's go to our 2 correspondents who is following the numbers for us out of what you've got so rick you're exactly right in the u.s. is not doing well at all but global cases right now we have more than $12000000.00 global deaths over 548000 look over the u.s. over $3000000.00 cases that's about 25 percent of the global cases deaths in the u.s. over 134000 and in no other place in the world has more confirmed cases growing as quickly as there are in arizona florida and texa

rick sanchez hi everybody i'm rick sanchez i want to welcome all of you who are watching us from all over the world including those of you who are watching us on your phone on the portable t.v. we're glad you're there charles dickens is known as the greatest novelist of the victorian era why do i mention him right here at the start of this newscast because well because he is credited with coming up with this phrase are you ready adversity makes strange bedfellows i want you to keep that quote of mine as i share with you what is happening right now between china and iran 2 countries presently being targeted economically and militarily by our government here in the united states so here we go this morning the new york times is pending a piece about a leak that describes how china and iran are signing a 25 year military and economic partnership agreement the piece titled when china met iran seems to suggest that washington is kind of freaked out by this that it has. quote the united states in a geo political storm so what is this deal between the us his biggest adversary in the middle e

they welcome back i'm rick sanchez the u.s. state department is going after weiwei then again that's an old story right so we've heard that before no no no no not the way that they're doing it this time they're doing something very unique this time this time they're targeting people who just happen to work at wild way they just work at the chinese phone company or tech company is that going too far does that open us citizens up to the same type of treatment around the world after all the argument could be made that turnabout is fair play. let's talk about the precedent that might be said here but 1st let's look at the facts here is our team correspondent holidays. as america and china continue with their trade war chinese telecom giant wildly has been placed smack dab in the middle of the battle in addition to pushing for the arrest of wall way c.f.o. in canada the u.s. has banned wall way from its soil and it's been working hard to get others to do the same this week the trumpet ministration was able to convince the u.k. to fo

sanchez rick sanchez so rick cursed even a journalist a very long time i want you to address this adversary's comment from the d.o.d. they referred to refer to protesters as adversaries. the road we are and we should be and this says a lot about us as journalists today and not including. or rick sanchez but i am including all the people who are writing about this as if they are completely shocked that they are being referred to as the series one infer if any one of them had gone to journalism school which one of the biggest problems we have today is most journalists are not really journalists so they did not go to journalism school but let's suppose they did go to journalism school but maybe they just failed to pay attention when they were there they would realize. that our jobs in a democracy is to have an ad the serial relationship with our government my job is to be donald trump's adversary to be the police department's adversary to be the mayor of my city's adversary to be the d.o.d.'s adversary that's my job that's what i'm supposed to do that's what journalists are supposed to be so whi

in the news with rick sanchez. understand this a little bit better but still we're you know we're left with questions joining me now is u.k. m.p. george galloway as i understand it and the story does get a little bit confusing george the russians are saying look this is a great thing the germans are saying we need it the americans are saying how dare you even think about putting a pipeline between your 2 countries rather than believe what any media in any of those countries i went to wikipedia i just did it would be a surgeon to read you what beauty of the north stream it says quote i think we can put it up here it is north stream is opposed by the us because of concerns that it would increase russia's influence in the region but us resistance to north stream is also influenced by the country's increased production of gas which gives the u.s. congress economic incentive to resist russia's supply of gas in favor of us shale gas this is what george what does it tell you. that's a pretty good summary of the old saw if
