Including Abigail Disney entrepreneur nick hanauer and soros himself asking for a bed rule wealth tax on the richest 110th of the richest one percent of all americans. What in the hell is happening to our billionaires asking to be taxed heavily and calling for an end to the u. S. Military adventures in interventionism. Lets find out just what parallel universe weve now entered as we start watching the hawks. Treat this. As part of. What they like that i got. Well the watching the hawks are very real and time to have a lot of. Whoa whoa are you real now is the word i am clearly not its a figment of Government Action so george soros and charles koch are teaming the hope to get the us out of war because this is. Just juicy that will have exploded at this point we can all see your head explode. Oh well it was interesting as this idea of a think tank with which i think has not i think has not brought great thoughts because its think tanks that have been behind so many of these these interventionist wars they are backed up by well this institute says those well this institute says that except. For one of the interesting things was a treat of course he was one of the cofounders of the new institute and former president the National Review and American Council told the media this is big it shows how important and less ending endless war is if theyre willing to put aside their differences and get together on this project were going to be a chat with going to challenge the basis of American Foreign policy in a way that has not been done and the last quarter centuries so she will also be joined by suzanne de maggio was a historian and ask stephen or time the antimilitarist author and then retired army colonel andrew bach which in the coup founders circle and i think so what theyre trying to do is have a 3500000. 00 budget and a staff of policy experts 2 will put out material for use in congress and public debate so its an its a pretty pretty typical thing. Except theyre thinking about not about. How to perpetuate it but which is a new i think a new one for us its a new its a new area i guess the thing with the this is do we trust i mean you know because its like soros and the co. Brothers you know as ive said earlier of theyre all theyre kind of what a lot of the other central hubs to a lot of legitimate you know conspiracy thinking of what why things happened and why you know we talked about astroturfing the other day on the show those 2 a bit mind a lot of that you know but at the same time its like are they having the change of heart or theyre suddenly saying well maybe wars maybe this you know old military Industrial Complex things we stop were going to put our money into it. Its incredibly interesting right and its something i always say theres always this why would they do it why would they do it when you get to be a certain age and legacy is really important and this is where you know people like carnegie realized theyd rather leave their name to mean something and instead of being this thing that was against something oh i dont want to be the guy who brought monopoly as i dont want to be the guy who sold out most midwestern states for half a buck to terrible politicians and found out there. If you take it in another angle and you start to look at it that way it definitely becomes like well you know we can trust no one but i mean it cant hurt if theyve supposedly had this much power to do all these things and. Say ok were going to use it for what we will definitely be watching yeah i dont know obviously you know im. Going to see if i was responding to because the instant theyre saying that the institute was named after the former president John Quincy Adams won independence they made to 21 declared that the United States goes not abroad in search of monsters to destroy she is the well wisher to the freedom and independence of all she is the champion and vindicator only of her own so clearly john griggs the adams would not be a fan of the intervention or style Foreign Policy we have these terrorists i think most of the writers of the constitution the bill of rights most of our Founding Fathers would you know they wouldnt like whats going on now i wrote my own a number. Of levels but i think part of it is. You know we we rely on a billionaire to pay Student Loans or apply in a billionaire to do this we were we were requiring them to say its ok to make us fake pay or a fair share its ok and you know as we say as we celebrate our independence here in the United States i think about friends independence and what was around that in that. You cant keep telling people to eat cake your choice of actually going to blow your brains. This week athletes are back in the spotlight not because of the point spread but because of the effect their words have on others calling catherine it is allegedly behind the moon nikes move to pull an Independence Day themed shoe from sale over the nazi groups use of the flag and of the 13 colonies featured on the show in its connection to slavery arrow United States and the u. S. Womens soccer team captain meg and rapinoe who was asked by a reporter are you excited to go to the white house answered im not going to the way there is another word in there so our app is becoming too powerful of a voice and public debate or is it even more important than ever that those with a platform and the platform resist the urge to censor themselves and while it may take the Mainstream Media at least 8 hours in a dozen boxes to have this debate we hear on watching the house to do it in under 5 minutes joining us now from new york city with a view from the right is conservative commentator steve malzberg. All right well look politics and sports have been coming together for better or for worse for lots and lots and lots of decades berlin hitler the olympics muhammad ali the mexico city games our boycott of the 1980 olympics in moscow 2012 hoodies for trayvon in the n. B. A. And so on so lets get to today as for megan rypien oh shes doing nothing but playing politics she has no cause she doesnt stand for the National Anthem she said she wont go to the effing white house and she used the name trashing the administration for everything then she accepts invites to visit the house in the senate from a. O. C. And Camilla Harris this woman is the captain of the u. S. National womens soccer team that she chooses to use an expletive to describe the white house and lets face it the president while representing the u. S. Overseas speaks volumes for who and what she is capper nick convinced nike to stop distribution of sneakers bearing the betsy ross American Flag as you said because its offensive who is he kidding he also found the National Anthem offensive and i bet he has no use for any American Flag but i dont blame this pair for showing us who they are i believe nike in the case of cap or not for ballin to his pressure if the reporting is correct why does he get to decide whats offensive and whats not and as for a piano she did start today semifinal game for a single in which the u. S. Won id like to believe it was punishment for the way shes handled herself as captain but that would be expecting too much from feckless administrators and coaches who probably agree with her and by the way President Trump gave her some good advice after she mouthed off when 1st before talking and so far they havent won. Well i want him out off a little bit now because. She was asked by a reporter if she was going and she answered she didnt put herself end of a situation but i wonder why we act as if athletes are supposed to be neutral on political or social issues while also using them and their talents to promote whatever political ad agenda or is whether its ginning up support for war with taxpayer funded salutes to veterans at Football Games or complaining that anyone who makes millions bouncing a ball shouldnt have the right to an opinion if theyre an actor they should not in a right to be opinion insert here lets be honest the same people decrying rap and tabloid are the same people who think a corporation has more of a right to free speech than human beings yet you wonder why facebook has taken hold of our entire political rhetoric and quite frankly it is the sign of the painfully delicate thin skin of politicians and pundits that they have these days that an athlete like u. S. Womens soccer team cowed captain can answer a reporters question about whether she wants to go to the white house and be attacked because the answer is politically incorrect. The snowflakes crying in their whole milk over a megacorporations overpraise shoe and a Soccer Player is opinion should ask themselves why they think a baker shouldnt have to make a gay wedding cake but athletes should be stripped of their right to free speech because they Say Something that offends you im just im confused about who the snowflakes are these days. Pro sports and believe my friends are pro sports athletes they are human beings last i checked and last i checked the constitution of the United States gave these human beings living here the right to whats called free speech but i guess somewhere along the way we forgot that basic fact that all the bright lights ticket sales and big contracts and professional athletes just like all of us have every right to their opinions even when one political side of the spectrum or the other deems them controversial and just like the rest of us athletes will also have to face the cause. Sequences of their free speech look like you decide the polish jew because theyre brown spokesman so thats offensive thats their right if indeed thats what really happened here they are a business and they want to make money and you dont make money by appending half of your customers if Megan Rapinoe wants to declare she wins the title she doesnt want to go to the white house so be it who cares if nike is wrapping up a backlash over this im pretty sure theyre all adults and can handle it bottom line for me is that i am glad athletes have the ability to speak out because whether i love them or hate them or whether they win the big game or fail whether theyre a starter or on the bench its free speech at its finest and that my friends is worth more than any trophy shoe sales or white house visit. All right thank you so much for coming on today steve always a pleasure to have the back pleasure guys thank you thank you.

V. Dot com coming up we delve into a dynamic new global gun debate coming not from the right side of the political spectrum but from the left side investigative journalist ben swan joins us to discuss they took. My son doing drugs my nephews was still in drugs my sister just with doing drugs it was like an epidemic of drug abuse americas public enemy number one in the United States is drug abuse he started going after the users in the prison population sewer we started treating sick people people who are addicted to these drugs like criminals while i was on the hill i increasingly became convinced that the war on drugs was a mistake there are countless numbers of people who are in prison for. A long sentence in this for minor minor offenders in the drug trade its a lot watching your children grow up and miss you in waves and say by daddy as youre walking out of a business its just it doesnt get easier. Seemed wrong. Wrong just dont call. Me. Yet to shape out these days because thats ok and engagement equals betrayal. When something find themselves worlds apart when shes to look for common ground. During the Great Depression which must remember there was most labor people and it wasnt it was bad you know much worse objectively today but there was an expectation that things were going to get better. There was a real sense of hope. There isnt today 2 days america was shaped by the turn principles of concentration of wealth and power. Reduced democracy attack solo duality engineer election manufacture consent and other prince holds according to. One set of rules for the rich. Thats what when you put her into the. Sector will switch will is dedicated to increasing power for chills just as youd expect one of the most influential intellectuals of our time speaks about the modern civilization of america. When it comes to guns history has a way of being rewritten by those looking for a reason to get guns out of the hands of certain people when those people are domestic abusers keeping them away from guns is a safety issue but when the people being locked out of the 2nd amendment continue to be those in marginalized communities theres more to look at in a recent piece labor writer kim kelly points out that guns have not always been a Political Tool of the right but a necessary defensive weapon of the left she describes feeling safer a protest attended by redneck revolt an antifascist antiracist militia it seems as kelly puts it when cops and other fascists see that theyre not the only ones packing the balance of power shifts and they tend to reconsider their tactics because at the end of the day we cant depend any of us to be protected by our governments at all times joining us now to discuss this is r t america contributor thanks for joining us. Now thanks for having me on ben its interesting because kim kelly also went on to state that until we live in a world with no police no military and no state were at the mercy of all 3 and and i at least dont think its fair to expect us to confront them empty handed i am interested that is ms kellys point of view common amongst you know gun gun rights supporters and if so why is it so hard for the left and right to come together on this because it seems like youd be a unifying belief. Yes so its actually a really interesting and very smart debate by the way guys so i appreciate you raising this issue because a lot of people wont talk about it right but in our political system right now we basically see gun rights as being only to the right and then everyone whos against guns on the left thats and thats not accurate ive been saying for many years now if you go back to the Us Constitution in the 2nd amendment itself to understand what the founders and framers were talking about they were not talking about hunting they were not talking about having weapons for the purpose of recreation the 2nd amendment is there to provide protection against the government now you may like that you may not like that doesnt matter thats what the founders of framers meant when they were creating this document you have to read a whole lot about what kind of the the back story behind the federalist antifederalists to understand why they came up with this compromise but essentially thats what its there for so the problem is is that when you say to a lot of people on the right hey weve got to protect ourselves against the government there with you on that but if you say to those same people and police now theyre not with you anymore because there is such a strange. Dynamic between government power and local police power where you know that whole Blue Lives Matter movement is really on the local level so a lot of people who would be considered classic conservatives are very uncomfortable when you talk about protecting yourself from police but theyre very comfortable with the idea of protecting yourself from the government. Which is always very confusing from the right left paradigm because were supposed to respect soldiers but the idea of the government and soldiers and to take our rights then we can fanned up and theres this very haria strange place in the middle and i think part of that is because gun laws tend to disproportionately affect communities of color whether its how theyre enacted or how theyre in for so you know you might be in a White Community like the one i grew up in where like every other pickup truck has a gun rack and no. Weve got a knock down and thats everyone phil saves or you could be in east baltimore and even if something looks like a gun you could get shot by police but youre also at risk of getting shot walking down the street so you know one of the things we noticed when we went to australia is that they have more gun clubs its more theres more of a Community Aspect around it which i think is where you know militias do you think maybe these local gun clubs or militias can be a path to understanding that a little more or having such a sense of community about it. Well i think i think they could be keep in mind that the very 1st gun licensing. Laws in this country were in acted in order to prevent blacks freed slaves africanamericans in this country from having guns thats where they came from the very 1st laws about who can have a gun and who has a license to carry a gun came about to which to disenfranchise and prevent newly freed slaves from owning guns so that is where a lot of that history goes back to and i think youre absolutely right when you look at these communities look lets lets not kid ourselves there is a lot of inner city violence that is black on black crime lot of drug violence and Gang Violence that takes place in inner cities but there are a lot of people in inner cities who are simply looking to protect themselves and police are not quick to distinguish between one and the other at the same time youre absolutely right that with that you can go into a lot of a rural areas in this country and someone carries a gun and thats no problem at all so theres definitely a us against them mentality when it comes to guns and that includes the right to carry a gun a great example of that is the old a few years ago that the man in minnesota who was shot he had a license for a. Concealed carry handgun and he had that gun on him when a Police Officer stopped him he told the Police Officer that he had the gun with him and the Police Officer shot him to death the the whats really shocking about that case though is that beyond just the fact that he was killed for having a license to carry a gun but because he was a black man in a car the Police Officer felt threatened by it and killed him is the fact that you had in cities like the n. R. A. Which would not take a stand to defend him and say hey heres a concealed carry owner who had his license he had the weapon he told the officer what was going on and he was killed anyways and so even to talk about the education part of that what. Do you do in that situation how do officers need to be trained to deal with that situation they were not a part of that conversation and i think thats part of part of the example of how this all becomes so twisted in as you said this left right paradigm you know its interesting too because i think when people hear about you know someone protecting themselves from the government or from the police there are media they media we go to you know revolution and people storming the capitol with firearms and that kind of thing really its more the perception its more that if the government knows that there was an armed populace of the citizenry is armed then the government knows that ok we can you know theres a certain line it knows it cant cross for fear of revolt but you know i think we kind of everything gets romanticized into this like you know fear tactics and all that kind of thing its really just the idea that the populace is armed that keeps governments in check but one of the yeah and she says in the article its even in this in this very dangerous situation where you have a right wing and left wing activists and people when they see that you are just as capable of taking care of yourself and youre just as capable of holding onto a weapon or whatever it might be theres a different tactic people will talk once they realize they cant just push people around with a gun thats a great point you know speaking of pushing people around their guns. I want to ask how much has the change in the n. R. A. From from a safety measure occasional organization into this kind of lobbying giant lobbying firm on capitol hill how is that changed the gun rights debate especially given the recent problems as you pointed out with the plan to steal case with the n. R. A. And their actions yeah i think it has a huge effect on it because thats again you know again this example i brought up a great example of how the n. R. A. Completely has failed in its mission to educate because theres no education as a part of that to help people to understand their role in society with those guns and to help Police Officers understand heres someone who legally had that right so what is your police force doing to make sure this never happens again they didnt do that in fact the n. R. A. Was silent on the phalange. Case and a year later dana loesch user spokeswoman came out and made a statement about it and her statement was dont kid yourself because steele was committing a crime because he had marijuana in the car along with a gun like that has anything to do with being shot to death by a Police Officer when youve notified them you have a gun so so it goes back to this idea that the n. R. A. Has become so politicized and you know only favors republican candidates now part of thats because democrats have taken such a strong hard line against guns as part of their National Platform but theyve really just become an a platform for electing republicans into office and theyre not about education and theyre not working with these different communities in various ways and lastly i just think is that as we look at the situation nationally more needs to be done to educate people and get people to come together to understand that this right is about making people safer not putting people against playing a bigger theyre more thank you so much for coming out of there and given this fascinating conversation with us bums one thank you thanks guys. Robotics and Artificial Intelligence are hit hard here are quaters and while we are at the level of say terminator robo cop that isnt stopping the Los Angeles Police department from deploying their very own version of robo cop Surveillance Technology on the streets of l.
