The year is 2009. I joe bidens riding high hes Vice President but poor old hunt is not doing so well his Cryptocurrency Fund is going through a rough patch off to one of its key people and stanford is court red handed and charged with forward to the tune of a tidy sum the indictment on wages at stanford in his codefendants engaged shouldnt scheme to defraud investors who purchased approximately 7000000000. 00 its sure to check your deposit c.

And in photos from the trip hunters by his side just a regular full of the sun trip except 2 weeks later hunter and his buddies signed off a 1000000000. 00 investment contract from china is the wall just full of coincidences. Here is now 2018 and hunt is again in a bit of a pickle as cofounder of rosemont sonic up fellow director of the Barista Group is charged with security for what its funny how many bad apples hunter has been surrounded by like i said every t. V. Show has got big personalities and big revelations and it would seem a very tangled web of characters so with joe bidens 2020 president ial campaign hit by control of the city another democrat is gaining momentum the senator Elizabeth Warren but shes also attracting more scrutiny as a result a lot more could look at her bid to win. Elizabeth warren the current front runner among democrats contending for the 2020 nomination says that she has been the victim of an injustice she says that back when she was 22 years old she lost a teaching job because she got pregnant when i was visibly pregnant about 6 months along. The principal called me and. That he wished me luck. Hed be more comfortable having someone else now back in 2008 she was telling the story a little bit differently you actually pursued their career i did them for you here. And within that song. I actually didnt have the education courses so i was on an emergency certificate it was called and i went back. To graduate school and took a couple of courses in education but in 2019 it looks like she decided playing the victim card would get her a little bit farther just like her claim to be native american which helped her get into Harvard University the Democratic Candidates absolutely believe that voters need a victim mentality she needs to be authentic with voters more than being a victim to voters it appears that she was never actually fired for being pregnant in fact there is a Resignation Letter that she apparently turned in at one point and heres another president ial candidate hes chosen a different role as ive stated strongly before and just to reiterate if tookie does anything that ive had my grazing on match wisdom considered to be off limits i will be destroying and a brooch or a the economy. Ive done before now donald trump can certainly play the victim when it comes to impeachment inquiries and media bias however hes also clear on other things hes big hes rich and he almost always gets his way for them in trouble also considers himself a victim he refers to the witch hunt against him especially in the russia collusion case now with the impeachment he refers to himself as being the victim of one of the biggest hoaxes in u. S. History and a witch hunt so he uses the victim term in many cases but then he will flip that on its head and suddenly talks about how he has this unmatched unparalleled wisdom Many Americans dont like the idea of being the victim they like the idea of being a victim of being stronger or being a winner as opposed to somebody whos been put down so different camps and different means of appealing to your voters democrats seem to seek sympathy by showing ways they have been mistreated for a few years ago the small modest family moved into the town i grew up in to be denied because of the color of their skin it was trying to distance with white activists you know there was a little girl and california who was part of the faction class to integrate her Public School and she was bused to School Every Day and. That little girl was me in each generation in my family starting with my grow up my grandmother who came in 1902 from mexico as an orphan. We found out that its not enough in america to just work hard and for your family to work hard not trumps tone at all lets review how the donald presents himself i am the one im a very stable genius im so young i cant believe im the youngest person i am a young vibrant. I would give myself a plus now to be fair donald trump is not facing any serious primary contenders hes got the republican nomination pretty much in the bag but it is interesting to compare the 2 different approaches the victim mentality is not the Winning Strategy when it comes to a general election in the primary system in the United States you are actually playing to only about 2 to 3 percent of the electorate in order to win a primary when you get into the general election and now youre facing all voters its a very different mentality i think the general sentiment of americans is to be competent to be strong to not be a victim to be a winner perhaps its just a different psychology if youre a republican you want someone who is strong undefeated and will come into office in order to make America Great again and if youre a democrat you want someone who has suffered and understands what you have been through and when they get into office theyll help level the Playing Field now theres admirable aspects to both approaches but the gap between them is pretty staggering caleb mop and artsy new york. To putting u. S. Troops out of new of in syria and essentially clearing the way for the to operation targeting could president dont trump has offered to mediate between the 2 sides so what we have is really 2 choices you have the choice of bringing in the military and defeating everybody again or you have the choice of but actually doing some very strong things to turkey so that they take it a little bit easy on really competition that is how do they get big fairly or we can mediate i hope we can mediate. Well the 1st stage of the Turkish Operation began with air strikes on to control border towns the kurds there have ordered a general mobilization along the border with to keep adding to confront the attack and they call washingtons troop draw a betrayal the international communitys condemned to use assault and korea in turn has warned that it will send millions of Syrian Refugees currently in turkey to europe if the e. U. Calls its operation an invasion but least analyst Alexandra Bruno he says that turkey may not benefit from its current operation against the kurds most of turks and the kurds are saying or suggesting that they have been betrayed the kurds have been betrayed many times and this is the standard policy of the west in fact but its not just the kurds were betrayed this is been the western policy in the middle east for a long time there have always been this unity between this president and his own republican primary particularly on issues regarding the middle east and u. S. Involvement we also talk to you as an actor hes an m. P. For the turkish justice and Development Party and he condemns americas treatment of the kurds. Turkey did not break any rules or norms of nato and it is the United States which is breaking the rules this is why we have to ask the question about the us and that alliance of friendship this alliance pledges to protect any of its members if they are in danger and today turkey is in danger but we dont see the us cooperating with us their ally on the contrary they are part of the threat it is the us who is breaking the rules of the Alliance Turkey maintains its position if all the members of nato agree with this violation everyone will be infringing the rights of other members of the block i dont even want to talk about it. Meanwhile u. S. Senator Lindsey Graham has slammed the decision to withdraw u. S. Troops from Northern Syria calling it the biggest blunder of prompts presidency and even suggest the result could be worse than the vietnam war trumpets defended the move by saying the kurds did not help the u. S. During world war 2 he did warn however that is offensive could lead to isolate prisoners escaping and heading to europe. Fighting just gaping holes in the thread where well theyre going to be escaping to europe thats where they want to go they want to go back to their homes but europe didnt want him from us we could have given a chance they could have had trials they could have done whatever they wanted but as usual its not reciprocal you know my favorite word reciprocal there is the risk of coming to europe theres a risk oh go into syria proper or theyll attempt to or into iraq or into many other places as long as. Everything was beginning to calm down in syria the war was essentially over more or less and now this is all kicked off again the timing is very interesting mr their guns you know were going to step aside and this stupidity that hes saying because didnt help us in world war 2 i mean whats world war 2 got to do with the price of fish its very strange what trump says ultimately what everyone is doing what may so its very good all the nato countries are doing is essentially rekindling the war in syria this all needs to stop and i think the only people the only countries that have got the the morality and the decency in the honor to do it is russia and iran and i really hope they do do something watching out a still to come for the south korean paste as some of the initiatives undertaken by big firms to protect the environment may look good but they dont actually work well have a look at why just after the break. Lead. On this edition of crossfire we demystify serious kurds almost all of the criticism largely against syria policy is not rooted in facts actually back criticism is driven by false narratives and the inability to admit that International Proxy War to overthrow the damascus government has failed the sooner all american troops leave syria the better for syria and to me. Welcome back now from london to paris and new york the Environmental Action Group Extinction Rebellion has been rallying in a series of coordinated protests in fact since monday more than a 1000 people have been arrested in the u. K. Alone well x r is also known was established in london describes itself as a decentralized movement pursuing its aims through grassroots activism it claims to have presence in 72. 00 countries and shot to fame over the past year by staging a number of protests and the giants appear to have been taking to you they are spending millions on advertising highlighting their green initiatives but a new report does claim that they are being disingenuous as theyre also lobbying against tougher climate regulations or over another report by greenpeace to suggest that initiatives by big firms to protect the environment while looking good fail to be effective shall at the pinsky rip. Going green is a big business in an age of protests like Extinction Rebellion Companies Want to show that they are making a contribution to saving the planet whether that by reducing the use of plastic all spending money on campaigns to let you know they are dedicated to cope with future but according to a report by greenpeace they may actually be deceiving you to resolve the global plastic pollution crisis some of the Worlds Largest companies have started to admit that they need to act but close to scrutiny shows that theyre mostly continuing on the same track by investing in full Solutions Take the whole issue with teaching Single Use Plastics Global Brands like dalton starbucks got on board for tea quickly when it came to ditching Plastic Straws the solution to use paper ones that was met with choice applause because paper can easily be recycled right wrong not only cold stores be recycled greenpeace points out a more fatal flaw there is no way the planet can sustain additional demand from companies attempting to substitute this single use Plastic Packaging with paper or cardboard another solution to conventional Single Use Plastics made from fossil fuels is to use by you based plastics these have been snapped up by companies such as cocacola pepsi co and nestle know why oh paste is a very clever term because it probably makes you think that the product is by you degradable and well yes some boy are based plastics should be able to break down however when added to learn to fill the conditions are rarely favorable to that actually happening but there is an even bigger problem the majority of bio based plastic is derived from agricultural crops. Which compete with food crops threatening Food Security globally the production of Agricultural Commodities is the leading cause of deforestation and habitat destruction ok so what about recycling were all being encouraged to do that except as weve recently learned most of all recycling ends up being sent to countries in Southeast Asia where its routinely being dumped thats if it even leaves your home country in the 1st place u. K. Waste management or was recently fined 350000 pounds for trying to ship household rubbish to china that was labeled as being the waste paper for recycling when in fact sanitary towels nappies and condoms were all found or wrapped up in the bales in the container and studies show that when it comes to plastic more than 90 percent of the worlds plastic remains recycled greenpeace says its time to declare peak plastic and move towards 0 waste easy to say clearly much more difficult to do especially when almost all the products that we use come readily wrapped in 12 sometimes 3 layers of plastic or paper others say the only real solution is for governments to take action and to ban single use packaging but as youve seen exchanging one thing for another may only be shifting the problem. Artie paris professor of sociology frank furedi says that campaigns against plastic bags to create a good impression but often dont tell the whole story. I doing theres a lot of. Really rather covering where companies. Do making a major contribution to solving our mental problems a lot of the campaigns against plastic bags are really about creating the impression that we do something good. You know is sort of organizing the. Can we ought to be thinking about developing technologies a lot of them look good on paper but when you actually find out the benefits in terms of cutting global emission gozo it searing an energy of 2 very elusive and theres very little to do goes from it their responsibility not. By you know accurately just you know after people buy their products after rocket there needs to be you know more concerted efforts who are just. But we fear that the commitments the event by the combine fire that we are. Having changes that you know addressing the problem not the the r. And in not so we manage or through shoeshine or through our recycling but im talking at the Source Solution that we are operating i think at the source reducing the production of things so theres that we still manage. 5 people have been killed in more than a week of unrest over government hysterics in measures in ecuadors capital gang the demonstrators were thousands of Indigenous People one of their leaders condemned president lenin that i noticed decision to cut fuel subsidies as part of a loan deal with the International Monetary fund. The nec order would have a murderous government against its people we have a government that has given itself its soul and blood to the International Monetary fund. Protests have turned ugly with violent clashes roadblocks and also disruption to the countrys oil output in the capital case have a funeral was held for one of the Indigenous Leaders killed during the process some wednesday from there our correspondent Nicholas Odonovan sent this report. This is ground 0 digits resistance thousands and thousands of people came to all the bells in the selecting the building behind me the concept if you could of a big building where theyve also kidnapped a policeman one of those officers came on stage to say that he was being treated well but the government was clear that any negotiations to carry on these offices have to be released the Indigenous People on the other hand have their own conditions to come to the table they want both the minister of defense and the interior minister to resign and theyre also still pushing for fuel subsidies to be back in place also or a tease in ecuador who have arrested over 750 people in a week of unrest and dozens of Police Officers have been injured also hundreds of protesters have suffered injuries during these violent clashes so the situation here nick riddle is still tense in the negotiations between the government and the digital speed the still blocked or still far from the result because of those charges. That president or trump has refused to hand over u. S. Diplomats wife to the u. K. Despite a request from the british Prime Minister please want to question the woman after a teenager was killed in a Road Accident commenting on the case though trump pointed out that americans do find it hard driving in the. I was telling doris we have a lot of americans that you know they side on on the fact that you know you have 2 wonderful parents that lost this son and the woman was driving on the wrong side of the road and that can happen you know those are the opposite roads that happens i wont say it ever happened to me but it did when you get used to driving on our system and then youre all of a sudden the other system where youre driving it happens i have to be careful very careful this is the specter of hitting and killing harry trying on the wrong side of the road 1st she cooperated with u. K. Police but then fled to the u. S. Claiming diplomatic immunity Prime Minister Boris Johnson is strongly objected to the use of this legal instrument. Do you think that it can be right to use the process of diplomatic immunity for this type of purpose and i hope that and secured us will come back and will engage properly with the process is of was there carried out in this country were some reports to suggest that 2nd this is husband was actually an Intelligence Officer rather than a diplomat therefore casting doubt on their entitlement of immunity we asked people in london what they think about trumps response to the case. So well i wonder if to be so. Dismissive. Anybody and this isnt a power like he is she making such but there are about something and it also makes things very personal terms if you dont personally know that you dont really care if youve killed someone then yes thats beyond diplomatic immunity you have to face the law even because it looks like it wasnt even. Really strange i mean this is an Intelligence Officer diplomat so its a bit. Is a bit of a stretch isnt it people who come to this country should have to live under our laws when they get promoted from normal they should rule diplomatic immunity and face consequences i think she should he should have made her come back he should come back diplomatic immunity should be really looked at because a whole load of offenses against. Collusion of corruption of both governments British Government is corrupt probably collusion was a written copy of government. Now developing story before we go because 2 missiles have reportedly hit an Iranian Oil Tanker in the red sea that has led to a fire that cause significant damage and it also created an oil spill to the fire has now been extinguished and the leak contained the vessel was reportedly bound for syria carrying and. Barrel of oil the incident occurred about 100 kilometers from the site in port city of jeddah no casualties there have been reported of course will bring the updates as they come in. So that brings you up to date so were going to be back with more. In this community there are people who believe that its ok. Its really hard there are no jobs and you see the kids. And as a parent. I can come up with arguments theres a lot of conflict in the game between the 2 most of the conflict i would say. Is made. Us want you know the children. Each other is Good Business the state of california alone makes 6000000000 dollars a year of prison complex just to get some point in your life where. You dont care and cares about you so your care might anything.
